Kid's Show Hosts (was: WMUR)

[Dan.Strassberg]

Dairylea was a co-op owned jointly by dairy farmers. The name was an
abbreviation of the group's original name, Dairymen's League. If
Dairylea still exists, it's a good thing that the name was shortened
in the way it was; today, a name containing "dairymen" would be viewed
as politically incorrect. Dairy Farmer's League would be OK, but
Dairylea is shorter, more euphoneous, and easier to say and remember.
