Does TCM indicate the airdates/times for these shorts or are they simply random?

[Pete Smith Specialty Short Subjects]

When I was growing up in the early 70's in NYC, on Saturday nights at 11:30pm, WNEW used to run a program called A Night At the Bijou, an effort to recreate the feeling of being in a movie theater in the 40's. They would show a cartoon, a short subject, trailers and a full length feature.

 

One of the short subjects was a Pete Smith Specialty which generally featured some poor shnook being victimized by his/her spouse, technology, etc. I saw one of these on 1/15/03 on TCM and wondered if anyone has any info on them.
