 | | At 6:45 one sunshiny morning last week a dimpled, strapping radio entertainer and his hillbilly band trooped into a broadcasting station in Austin, Tex., whooped and whanged in the style that has made them the Lone Star State's biggest air attraction. |
 | | But presently the band and its leader, Flour Salesman W. Lee ("Pass the Biscuits, Pappy") O'Daniel, had to leave to perform before a crowd of 70,000 that packed the University of Texas stadium. |
