[ Well we are all prouder of Pizza and Puccini Pop , Don Rogers , the " Phantom of Italian Opera " at Providence radio station WEAN for more than three decades. He retired -more or less- in 1986 . Not quite a Hall of Famer, Pop did get much interesting ( and for Ma infuriating) fan mail. I will publish excerpts from it in the future. ]

Hello all,
My first job in radio was doing an overnight shift on WEAN Saturday
night into Sunday morning during Don Rogers' 'Words and Music'
program. I anchored the news and changed large reels of tape. I knew
I better play those reels in the correct order or somehow Mr. Rogers
would find out. On occasion, Pam Watts would come in on time at 5AM
to relieve me.
This was my during my sophomore year at RIC. You can guess how exciting
my college weekends were NOT.
