About the Group
The WIS Hired Hands were a long running popular act that aired over WIS
out of Columbia, South Carolina. Their long running stint with this
station began about 1936 (you'd have to infer that since a 1951
article indicated they had been there for 15 years).
The leader of the group was Snuffy Jenkins. Snuffy and the gang
did nightly personal appearances as you might expect. And they also
did quarter hour broadcasts each week as well as a half hour
ajmboree show.
