But he deserves credit for having an integrated audience at this early date of 1952. Cannot have been that common at that time.

The show was based out of Philly. Some sites say that Dick Clark worked as an announcer on the show, reading the ad copy for when Tootsie Roll was the sponsor. This I cannot confirm. But if true, that might explain a lot of things, Dick Clark coming out of Paul Whiteman's TV Teen Club.
