Stompin’ Fool – The Arkansas Travelers Segment 3: You FoolThe origin of April Fool’s Day is uncertain, but one suggestion has to do with the 1564 decree by Charles IX that New Year’s Day be moved from March 25 to January 1. News traveled slowly in 1564 and some people would not be aware of the change for years later. Fooling – Ace Brigode and His Fourteen Virginians Were You Foolin’? – Richard Himber and His Ritz-Carlton Orchestra / Joey Nash No One’s Fool – Benson Orchestra of Chicago Segment 4: Fooling YouThe term for the fear of April Fool’s Day is Aphrilophobia.
