I wanted this job, but I was refused again. “Everything happens for the best,” Mom reminded me. Dad offered me the car to look for a job. I tried WOC Radio in Davenport, Iowa. The program director, Peter MacArthur, told me they had already hired an announcer.As I left his office, I felt so frustrated. “How can I become a sports announcer if I cant get a job in a radio station?” I asked aloud.While I was waiting for the elevator, I heard someone calling. It was MacArthur. “What was that you said about sports? Do you know anything about football?” Then he asked me to have a try.
