SQUIRE'S MEN'S WEAR

"Squire's was still going strong when I started announcing at KPRL in the early '70s.

"One day I told the boss (Ray Bryant) that I wanted to be a salesman. He said okay, but I'd have to look the part. He sent me down to Squire's to get outfitted (at the station's expense!)

"I was moderately successful as a salesman, but I will never forget Ray's generosity and the quietly humorous and customer service-oriented Squire's."
