What happens
Our Miss Brooks, a high school English teacher, is overworked while preparing midterm exams, and her friends and colleagues grow concerned. Principal Mr. Conklin and his daughter Harriet worry about her health, and Mrs. Davis, her landlady, fusses over her too. Walter Denton gives his own frank opinions about her looks while driving her to school. Mr. Conklin insists she needs a hobby, so Miss Brooks tries several pastimes, from chess to knitting, as her friends gather at her boarding house. The series is OTRR Our Miss Brooks Singles, first aired on CBS Radio on November 7, 1948, 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.
