Thanksgiving, I presume? Only reason I can think of for football on Thursday afternoon.

What's with that afternoon schedule of WKST? Two separate installments of American Bandstand,
sandwiched around something called Do You Trust Your Wife? Talk about a loaded title!

Well, it was the fourth Thursday in November..

The American Bandstand Schedule was also split on Channel 5, so it was an ABC thing. The first few years of "Bandstand" was scheduled like that..some affiliates carried only the first half hour, or the 4-5 hour..

Do You Trust Your Wife was renamed "Who Do You Trust?"..This was a month into its daytime premiere..With Johnny Carson and Ed McMahon
 
In his memoir "Rock, Roll and Remember" Clark talks about
how he "beat up mercilessly" on the scheduling of "Bandstand"
at 3, "Do You Trust Your Wife?" at 3:30, and "Bandstand" again
at 4, and how he constantly tried to get ABC to move "Trust"
out of the 3:30 slot. That proved to be difficult; both shows
were attracting badly-needed advertisers (remember, ABC was
finally starting to make a commitment to daytime). The change
wasn't made until October 1958, with "Beat The Clock" taking over
the 3 PM slot, what was now called "Who Do You Trust?" staying
at 3:30, and "Bandstand" at 4.

I get the impression Johnny Carson wasn't too pleased that Clark
was working to have his show moved; after Carson got "The Tonight
Show" it was a long, long time before Clark was a guest.

BTW, in Philadelphia "Bandstand" stayed on through the 3:30-4 PM
period, with "Who Do You Trust?" relegated to 1:30.
