TE SECONDS to 7500 Late in 1960, Bob Hoyt, WSBT's news director, will enter this studio to broadcast the 7500th edition of WSBT's 5:45 P.M. News Show. This probably is not a record for the consecutive broadcasting of one program, but the show is a tradition in WSBT radio-land. The 5:45 News covers the events of international, national and area importance for an audience in 36 Indiana and Michigan counties. And as has occurred for some 28 years, the program is broadcast at a prime period in this area . . . the dinner hour. Evidently the dinner tables in the WSBT area are well set. Lost year over Vi billion dollars were spent on food in this 36 county market. However, this should be expected when it's considered that the area has a yearly buying income of $3,349,051,005. To cover this big South Bend radio market you need only one station . . . WSBT. It dominates every 1 5-minute segment of every broadcast day!
