The reporter's name from WCAU that was announced was John Facenda - a longtime WCAU reporter. His distinctive voice was used in the annual Christmas show done at the flagship John Wanamaker store - and is still used as part of the annual show at this location which is now a Macy's. BTW, WCAU back then for years was the CBS affiliate for Philadelphia, PA - so it must have had a mighty strong transmitter to be heard in the middle of the South Pacific, lol.!
