George Jessel
I'm ready to help rewrite the description. However, I don't see the actual description text that needs to be rewritten. Could you please provide the description that starts with "Note: S (script only at Lilly Library)"? Once you share the full text, I'll rewrite it in my own words while: - Keeping the same meaning - Changing the structure and phrasing - Preserving proper nouns - Using simple English words and PG-rated Americanisms

The Orson Welles Almanac is a 1944 CBS Radio series directed and hosted by Orson Welles. Broadcast live on the Columbia Pacific Network, the 30-minute variety program was heard Wednesdays at 9:30 p.m. ET January 26 – July 19, 1944. The series was sponsored by Mobilgas and Mobiloil. Many of the shows originated from U.S. military camps, where Welles and his repertory company and guests entertained the troops with a reduced version of The Mercury Wonder Show. The performances of the all-star jazz band that Welles brought together for the show were an important force in the revival of traditional New Orleans jazz in the 1940s.
