Just put on a new belt I purchased from Parts Select and burned it up same within an hour. Was advised by Repair Clinic .com to put belt on smooth side towards drum is this correct? seems backwards to me.

No the ribbed side goes toward the drum so when you hook the belt on the motor pulley the groves are in the groves of the motor pulley.
