BOYS
The 101 Ranch Boys; Cliff Brown,
fiddle; Rusty Harp, bass;
Andy Reynolds, rhythm guitar-,
Leonard T. Zinn, steel guitar:
Smokey Roberts, accordion.
Five half-hour shows a week on WSBA, York, Pennsylvania, plus their weekly ABC program (heard every Saturday at 12 noon, EST) add up to a mighty heavy schedule for the 101 Ranch Boys.
Smokey — William R. — Roberts was born in Pitcher, Oklahoma. He joined the 101 Ranch Boys when they were playing over KCMO and making public appearances in and around Kansas City. Smokey's smooth style offered a good contrast to Andy's and Cliff's vocals, and his accordion filled out the group, made it more complete. It was after he joined up that the boys moved to Chicago where they worked for WLS; through this connection they came to WSBA in York, when that station went on the air. Smokey is a Navy veteran with three years' service. He's married, has a four -year-old daughter.
Leonard T. Zinn learned music by first studying, then teaching, in a guitar school in his native Hanover, Pennsylvania. He joined the 101 Ranch Boys at WSBA in 1945, creates the distinctive arrangements, both instrumental and vocal, for which the group has become so widely known. To him, too, goes the responsibility of handling most of the business of the group — keeping their joint bank account straight, paying bills, distributing salaries. He's promotion minded, too — believes that the 101 Ranch Boys are a unique group, is determined to get them the national publicity and recognition he believes they deserve. Leonard is married, has a small daughter, a baby son.
Rusty — DeWitt A. — Harp is the latest addition to the 101 Ranch Boys, brought the group up to five in January of this year. He and Andy and Smokey comprise a smaller group, the 101 Ranch Boys Trio, which sometimes plays dance and club dates without the other two, and he's featured soloist on both the network and local WSBA programs as well. Rusty is married, has one son, and says that collecting traditional folk ballads is his hobby.
The Boys are heard on WSBA from five until five-thirty Monday through Friday afternoons. They're heard on the ABC network Saturdays.
