In the 1950s I worked at KSCJ. However by the time I worked there, Andy Woolfries was no longer on the air. Andy was my science teacher at North Junior (high) School (it's gone now) on Nebraska Street
...
. The first time I heard this intro on the radio I marched into Mr. Woolfries class the next day for the first time and asked him as he stood inside the door welcoming his new class, "is your first name Andy?" He replied most seriously (having fun with me), "My name is Andrew." He was the smartest teacher I evr had and I owe a lot to him, including my non-religious thoughts on religion.When I went to Central High, Andy was there too, and I belonged to his radio club. I learned Morse Code, but never got a ham operator license until the 1970s, when I swapped communications with him in the Morse Code. It was the thrill of a lifetime, and Andy sent me the following message: "Congratulations, yours is the longest study period on record to obtain an Amateur Radio License. His call was W0DSP and mine (which is expiring now) KA0CFZ. Thanks Andy, you were the greatest!
