Collector Joseph Webb, a fan of "Suspense", has been kind enough to share some rare discs from his collection of the program.
Program 74 of the series as it was heard on Armed Forces Radio, and originally broadcast October 19, 1944, is "Eve" starring Nancy Kelly. The date is from the disc matrix.

Greetings… I am working on the “ultimate” set of Suspense and have found that there will probably never be a final set. I keep finding or finding out about AFRS versions that I did not have, and in some cases different copies of network shows with slightly different openings. I have also found some airchecks from the 1940, too!. They’ve all been lurking in collections for years and online.

The Suspense log that I am using is at http://sheet.zoho.com/public/drjoewebb/suspense-log-using-grams-112408 — it is based on Martin Gram’s superb book which is available at Amazon http://www.amazon.com/Suspense-Twenty-Years-Thrills-Chills/dp/1575026759/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1290277226&sr=8-1 I haven’t found an error in it yet. I have found new things that were not known when Martin published it in 1998, but I have not found any errors.
I’m active on Cobalt Club, so if anyone has any questions or can help out — look for me there as “greybelt” (the name is from my taking karate as an older student — there were a bunch of us so we called each other “grey belts”)
Thanks for the episode, Rand and Joe! I’m working on my “Complete Suspense” collection, so this will fit in perfectly!
I love Suspense. Many thanks for this episode.
