Subject: Voice-over Flubs

[Doug Drown]

Roy Leonard, who spent nearly 40 years at WGN and WGN-TV before he retired, 
was at WNAC and WNAC-TV for some time; I believe he left when WNAC became 
WRKO.  It sticks in my mind, for some reason, that he was at CJAD in 
Montreal briefly before going to Chicago.  -Doug
