THE WDAF TV KITCHEN KLUB
BETTE HAYES,
Brodley University home economics graduate, won several awards as a Westinghouse demonstrator before WDAF-TV discovered her. Bette is o TV natural. She never reads a commercial. She learns the product and delivers the advertiser's message straight into the camera's eye in her easy mid-western style. Bette works in a beautiful, modern kitchen, and Bette is a beautiful girl. But her viewer friends don't envy her. They like her because she doesn't talk over them, below them, or to them. She talks WITH them.
bilD KtKK has won his place in the hearts of WDAF-TV viewers with his quick, puckish— not cornball— wit. When Bob is not performing as general toste-tester, he helps Bette sell products with a warm conviction that homemokers admit they just can't resist. Bob won a recent poll conducted throughout the Kansas City area by TV GUIDE to determine "The local personality in the Kansas City sevenstation market area, most deserving of network recognition."
Here an some iietrpls from WDAF-TV KITCHEN KLUB'S heavy mail:
You ore by far the sweetest little homemaker that I have seen on any TV station and you are so refreshing— so neat and you truly make cooking on exciting and challenging affair. Kansas City, Missouri
It is 1 o'clock p. m. and your daily program is just over as usual every day. I have been listening, enthralled to every word ... Of course I am just one person who is profiting by your priceless cooking directions. If only the young brides or those who are not wise in the culinary methods, would listen to you, how much worry, even expense, they might sove themselves ... As I believe I told you in a previous letter that I am quite an old lady (93)— the daughter and grand-daughter of two good cooks and thought I, also, knew pretty well how to cook ... I have learned quite
0 lot from listening to you. Kansas City, Missouri
