  • 2:08- 2:11 shows Dick becoming a control freak for a few seconds, overcome with the urge to conduct, until Alice calls him back!

  • Alice Lon was a very pretty lady and a talented singer and dancer. Her mother made her elaborate petticoats, which were a trademark of the outfits she work on the Lawrence Welk programs. Unfortunately, Welk got annoyed with her later and fired her. The fans were unhappy and wrote letters insisting that Welk rehire her; he agreed, but Lon wouldn't come back. They later reconciled, but she never appeared on his shows again.

  • Love it! And Alice Lon's dress is prettier than the law should allow.
