Nostalgia & History > Any "Bill Riggs" with Santa Fe in Los Angeles, 1950?Date: 10/08/10 01:33 Any "Bill Riggs" with Santa Fe in Los Angeles, 1950? Author: scottp A 1950 radio show from the Phil Harris & Alice Faye series, has to do with a train trip from Los Angeles to New York. Jack Benny is paying for his cast (including Phil) but not the band members. Phil wants his pal Remley to come too, and he says once he rounds up some money he'll "go see Bill Riggs at the Santa Fe" and buy a ticket on the Chief.
I suspect Bill Riggs is a real person that Phil Harris (or the writers) knew. Any clues out there? Date: 10/08/10 20:37 Re: Any "Bill Riggs" with Santa Fe in Los Angeles, 1950 Author: lwilton I don't know if Fredo is telling the truth or joking, but see:
