Keeping
radio station schedules up-to-date has always been
notoriously difficult because deejays come and go
so quickly. This schedule was published in the fall
of 1968; the question is, how accurate was it? Certainly
Gary
Girard was the overnight guy. Bill
Winters had been the morning driver,
but left sometime after May 11, 1968 for his military
service (not to return until August 1969). Bill
Bland left WPOP sometime in June 1968. Larry
Black was there for all of 1968, as was Dan
Clayton and Dick
Heatherton (who continued hosting 9PM-1AM until
Bill
Love arrived around Thanksgiving). Steve
O'Brien departed Hartford for Philadelphia in July 1968 (and returned in January 1969). So this
schedule is in the ballpark but not 100% factual in the fall of 1968.
