Tonight on 60 Minutes: Studebaker
Yowp
The highlight of the show is the hitchhike commercial for the 1950 Studebaker, shouted at us by Mike Wallace. He had left Chicago for New York. Bob and Ray tended to feature country music tunes when Ken and Bill were away. On this show, they turn off a painful Gene Autry ballad. One of the knocks on the WHDH Bob and Ray shows is they would begin sketches and not know how to get out of them. That happens with the Ben Dover routine on this show.

BixLives!
Wow, the only WHDH episode I am missing. Why does Bob make fun of Red Engles records? They are classic! The woman on those records is usually a young and hungry Jo Stafford.
