Back in the mid 70's Channel 7 needed to find someone to replace Chuck 
Scarboro who had moved to WNBC and they conducted a nationwide search. 
The story goes that station brass discovered Jay while watching in a 
Denver motel room and then launched an ad blitz promoting that. Scott 
was finished in Boston before he started.

Jack talks about how well Tom Ellis and Natalie Jacobson got along. The 
end came when WCVB did a story on a gorilla giving birth and Tom quipped 
"Natalie you can go there for breast feeding lessons"

That is how Boston found out that Natalie was with child. It was also 
how Natalie's husband found out. Tom was finished at WCVB and would then 
become part of WNEV's dream team along with Robin Young.
