When I listened in 1962 (after WCOP flipped formats), Mel Miller was on
from 10 to noon, and Dan Donovan from 12 to 3 or so.  Melvin X. Melvin
(Who was also Mel Miller) was on from something like 3 to 6, and "The
Jones Boy" was on from 6 to 8.  Or maybe 5 to 8.  I thought Donn Parker
came along much later.
