    I thought my husband Larry might have known him, since he was a board engineer at WMEX in the 1960s, a competitor of Dale's station and located across the street. However, Larry said not. He was in Boston a few years before Dale began work there.

    Larry played records for Arnie Ginsberg. During long records they'd sneak down and open the fire exit which opened out into the Fenway ballpark, if the Red Sox were playing. Once the door slammed behind them, and they had to run like hell to get out of the ballpark and back into the station before the record ended.

    At about that time I lived in a frat house nearby, on Comm Ave, but I didn't meet Larry until 12 years later, when we both lived in Chicago. When in Boston, I was on the staff of student station WTBS and did a show there.
