Bill Shipley was Sylvania's spokesman on "BEAT THE CLOCK", so he gets to plug this impressive assortment of radios {Roxanne Arlen, Bud Collyer's assistant, shows them off}- yes, people were still listening to radio back then, although during this period (December 1953), prime-time entertainment shows on network radio were quickly losing ground to TV. Which would you rather do- see this on CBS television, or listen to Vaughn Monroe's "CAMEL CARAVAN" on CBS radio?
