flashback time!! I met Laverne Drake in Coeur d’Alene, ID in ’79 or ’80. Laverne’s daughter (her first name escapes me) was our traffic manager at K-103 (KIOB) in Coeur d’Alene.

Jason Remington says:
The short reference about Ed Ives and Ed Evans is dead wrong.
Ed Ives was the morning newsman on the Jim Gearhart show at KIRO. Ed was a newsman at KING radio prior to KIRO, and also had a stint as news director at KIXI. In later years he was the state insurance commissioner’s PIO, and also was a colleague of mine in the House Republican Caucus communications shop.
Ed Evans, KOMO radio newsman, moved into the KOMO TV news department as a reporter and anchor. After KOMO, and a stint in Hawaii, he ultimately became the South Sound Bureau Chief for KIRO TV, based in Olympia.
******** Jason says: Good eye! I wonder if Victor Stredicke made correction of any kind in a subsequent column. I will snoop around.
