This is -the radio station that Elaine Morgan, now of the NBC hookup, first made her all-girl dance orchestra debut. Over the Chewy-Gewy chewing gum program, I was a little sur- prised to see Laddie Montgomery singing the commercial! James Pruitt, the Chewy-Gewy chewing gum comedian, rattled off jokes and gave a wonderful rendi- tion of that old hit Personality Yvonne Meeks, who always as- pired to be a receptionist in a doc- tor's office, is Dr. Christian's new secretary. Keeping an eye on the radio controls, was Bill Henke, noncha- lantly munching a carrot while lis- tening to Charlotte Rupp's NEWS, Views and especially Gossip around Town.
