Local country bands included the Delaney Brothers, Steve Green and the Goldminers, Candy Creen, Tom Monroe, and Andy Pawlenko and the Smokey Hollow Boys. H.J.

Mr. Wilson, who is suffering from a terminal illness, resides in Calhoun, Georgia. A complete tape of the radiothon will be sent to him, at his home.
