The 15-year-old was from Westwood, worked at Marion's Creamy Whip on Harrison and went to Mother of Mercy High School.
The ratings may not have set a record, but it was the first time a company didn't cower in the corner when Cecil Heftel came to town with big money on a suburban move-in. Taft met him and his half-mil on the beach and Yes 95 never got the lift stations using the same ploy in other markets had.
Cecil's M.O. was to move-in a sleepy signal, make it a city-grade facility, hire core people from the winners, drop big money on a promotion and count on catching the winners asleep and overconfident. He hired Pat O'Brien, the Q's music director, to be the P.D. Pat was more bluster than brains and no one on Highland conceded anything.
Ratings, no, but successful, yes.

Ahh, yes the Million Dollar girl from Westwood! Mary Buchanan I lived three doors down and was best friends with her second youngest brother. Marty With the Party" lived around the corner on Wardall. Many a summer I enjoyed the above ground pool that was put in after the win! Mary is a culinary chef living in CA. Her family was also know in Western Hills for having the most decorated yard/house at any given holiday-her parents started Buchanan Studios still operating in Cheviot. Cliff Radel's Grandmother lived on the other side. It all starts in Western Hills!!
