September 21, 1959 on WDBJ 7 in Roanoke, VA

     When we found that we were able to receive this channel in January 1962, my brothers and I would watch this show when school was closed for snow. We also got to see it some during the summer if it was raining enough to keep us out of the fields on our farm. The show was hosted by Irv Sharp who also hosted Top O' The Morning earlier each weekday.
