Dave Wright on WFMY 2
Remember Dave Wright? He was a longtime personality with WFMY channel 2 in Greensboro, NC. Reporting the weather on the late night news was but one of his jobs at the station. In late 1962, Dave Wright took over as the host of the Thursday afternoon "Dance Party" show. By January 1964 the show was renamed "US!" with a few changes in the format. In the fall of 1964 the show moved to Saturday afternoon. There was still plenty of music and dancing.
