Kay Shows the Way The old adage that 'a woman's work is never done' has never been more true than in the case of Mrs. Kenneth Larson, more familiarly known to her thousands of Cen­ tral New York televiewers as "Kay" of "Kay's Kitchen." Kay Larson has been active in television since the Fall of 1950 when she attended the Television Workshop of the Protestant Radio Commission. Kay, who was handling public relations work for th eSyracuse Coun­ cil of Churches attended the workshop to get a better understanding of the new medium of television. She was so impressed with the new industry that she determined to explore its possibilities further and before long had her own series of programs on Television Station WHEN. Besides preparing her daily "Kay's Kitch­ en" programs, Kay produces a morning religious program on WHEN, "These Things We Share." And, there's almost a full-time job in itself. It is Kay's job to contact area clergymen of all faiths and schedule 15- minuate appearances for individual church leaders, five days a week. Kay resides in Dewitt, N. Y., an Eastern suburb of Syracuse, with husband Kenneth and children Linda and Eric. Ken is a civil engineer, employed by the Company at Electronics Park.
