HAWKINS" Now here’s real talent . . . W HEN Anheuser-Busch purchased the St. Louis Cardinals last Sum¬ mer, the brewery decided it needed a new baseball announcer. Harry Carey, the local spieler, was associated with a' competitive brand. So, they immedi¬ ately sought the services of Chicago’s suave Bob Elson, whose meticulous care in dress and man¬ ners is almost snob¬ bish in nature. The brewery rec¬ ognized Elson’s tact. They knew the guy eats, sleeps and lives baseball. They knew his intimate associ- Elson ation with athletes has made him the most respected announcer among big league players. By sharing the player’s experiences on the road and at home during the season, Elson understood their problems on and off the field. Such a man—reasoned the brewers— could sell beer! When White Sox pitcher Saul Rogo- vin slumped last season, he was cruci¬ fied by local sportscasters. But Elson, instead of blistering the depressed pitcher, sided with Rogovin and de¬ fended his slump. “Why kick a guy when he’s down,” philosophized Elson. “Athletes always give their best—even when losing!” His urbane, unbiased reporting has paid dividends. Ted Williams, on his re¬ turn from Korea, Casey Stengel and other great athletes have refused to ap¬ pear on TV in Chicago—except for Bob Elson exclusively! Because Elson excels in interviews, a new TV show, modeled after his famous 20th Century radio broadcasts, has been packaged for him. Oh! We might mention Elson rejected the St. Louis offer. His automotive spon¬ sor, aware of these traits, has renewed Elson’s TV contract for two more years. A-3
