Gee that's too bad, "Match" was a great favorite among kids when I
was young teen.

Since this has come up, I wonder if anyone here can confirm if
Rayburn ever worked at WGNY/Newburgh? When I worked there around
1974 people said he had worked there before making it big, but I
never heard any confirmation of that.
