W-3 Soul's Original Location



Earle rented a space upstairs over a hamburger restaurant known for its world famous scramble burger (Doyles). The space although large was an empty shell. We had to go in there and do everything: walls, wiring and carpet,  sections for broadcasting, news room, etc. Earl hired a contractor and we were the helpers (free labor). We pulled together to make this dream a reality.

"In 1968 there were no malls in Saginaw however there were a number of small plazas where businesses were located".
