WARM became the leader in local sports of all kind. Notabely WARM also started its own basktball team,The Duble Dribblers. 
Ten of course there was The Ron Allen Sportsline as well as Phillies baseball and Penn State Football. Later WARM ran Eagles, Cowboys, and Steelers Football. All that sports involvement started with this little tiny ad in 1959.
