I should have added that the adjusters are indeed all the way in, and I have played with the vertical alignment of the shoes.  I am left thinking that the shoes just don't fit.  hmmmm

I doubt the shoes are wrong.  They have to be adjusted all the way in and
be Perfectly Aligned to get the drums on.
