1935 Radio Report on Surgery at UC-SF

Yours truly stumbled across an old radio program from 1935 which featured a dramatized (played by actors) report on surgery to cure a "bearded lady" at UC-San Francisco.

The surgeon in question was Dr. Frank Hinman, Sr., who was evidently a big wheel in the field of urology at the time. See:

You can hear the program at the link below. I have shortened the musical introduction and conclusion and removed other segments of the program:
