"When Lulu Belle and Scotty sins a duet, who plays the guitar? When the Prairie Ramblers play an instru­ mental number, does Patsy play with them? Does Paul Rose ~' ork at WLS? And does the mUe German Band play any more?" Hazel Bonnell of Waupaca, Wlsconsi.n, inquires. When Lulu Belle and Scotty sing together, Scotty generally plays the guitar. Patsy frequently accompanies the Prairie Ramblers when they play instrumental tunes. She usually p lays the fiddle but occasionally struma Bradley Kincaid her guitar. Patsy's hu.sband Is not with WLS. However, he has appeared on WBZ In the past as master of ceremonies with road shows. Also has been con­ nected with Prairie Farmer.
