What happens
Miss Brooks, the English teacher at Madison High School, spends Christmas Eve alone in her living room, trimming a tree of greeting cards while her landlady Mrs. Davis leaves to visit her sister. Miss Brooks rocks her cat Minerva and dozes off after buying a tree from a young salesman who calls it magic. Her friends begin arriving one after another: Walter Denton, the Conklins and Harriet, and Mr. Boynton, each bringing a gift. The series is OTRR Our Miss Brooks Singles, first broadcast on CBS Radio on December 24, 1950, starring Eve Arden, Gale Gordon, Jeff Chandler and Richard Crenna.

Written from the episode itself; it never gives away the ending. Every recording is remastered for the stream: cleaned of rumble, hiss and mains hum (and the old TV whine where we found it), then levelled in two passes to steady broadcast loudness, so one show is never quieter than the next.
