He Introduced the First Episode of the Gunsmoke TV Series.

On September 10th, 1955 Television history was made. Not only was it the premier night for TV’s most legendary series, but it was the first and only time that the greatest of all legendary icons introduced a TV show. For on our TV screens, in glorious black and white stood John Wayne Himself, in full western regalia.

He spoke directly to the audience: "Good evening. My name's Wayne. Some of you may have seen me before. I hope so. I've been kicking around Hollywood a long time. I've made a lot of pictures out here. All kinds. Some of them have been westerns and that's what I'm here to tell you about tonight. A western. A new television show called "Gunsmoke". When I first heard about the show "Gunsmoke", I knew there was only one man to play in it. James Arness. He's a young fellow, and maybe new to some of you. But I've worked with him and I predict he'll be a big star. And now I'm proud to present Gunsmoke.">>>>>more( a nice tribute to the program for anyone interested)
