| Biography* | | Mr. Stanley E. Hubbard Born 100 Years Ago Today… A Tribute Written By Stanley S. Hubbard
Today, June 26, 1997, marks the 100th anniversary of the birth of Stanley E. Hubbard 1, who was the founder of our company. I hope that it might be somewhat interesting to some of the Hubbard Broadcasting Family to know a little bit about S.E. Hubbard I.
My dear dad was born in Red Wing, Minnesota, where his father was Superintendent of Schools. When my dad was very young, his father was killed in a freak industrial accident. My grandmother then moved my father and his three brothers to Minneapolis and then to St. Paul.
Stanley E. Hubbard was a very energetic and resourceful person, and for the family and for associates here at the company, it was often fun to hear him tell tales about his early days. For example, in the days before he was a teenager, doorbells were always operated by battery power, and even I remember when I was a young boy seeing cards or notes placed by doorbell buttons saying "out of order. " My dad figured out that all he would have to do was buy a bunch of batteries, ride around on his bicycle, look for out of order signs, go to the door and introduce himself as a doorbell repairman, replace the doorbell battery and make some money.
Later when S.E. Hubbard entered high school, he got himself a job as an automobile salesman. His pitch to the automobile agency was this: "If you give me a job as an automobile salesman, I will try to get kids in school to talk their fathers into buying a car from your dealership." Mr. Hubbard was quite successful in this endeavor. I believe that these two anecdotes about SEH's youth serve to point out just how ambitious and creative he was.
There were many interesting and exciting adventures which were a part of S.E. Hubbard's life a good example of which was his flying career. During his flying career, he was noted as probably the first person to commercially use radio direction finding equipment on an airplane, and he was reportedly the first person to ever drop a flare from an airplane to announce the results of the gubernatorial elections in New York state - a red flare if one candidate won and a green flare if the other won. He had many close calls in his early flying experiences. He started what may have been one of the first, if not the first, commercial airline-which went broke. He then moved back to Minnesota.
Mr. Hubbard's broadcasting career began when he had the idea which he described in the following way. "I believed that if I could start a radio station and put something on the radio, other than a fat lady singing opera to the accompaniment of a piano, such as popular music, that I could then attract enough of an audience to sell advertising." During those days dance bands were very popular, and in the Twin Cities there were two major ballrooms, the Prom in St. Paul, and the Marigold Ballroom in Minneapolis. Stanley E. made a deal with I the Marigold Ballroom which provided that they would give him "a studio" if he would play the live dance music on his radio station during the evenings. That is how the call letters WAMD -Where All Minneapolis Dances-came to be WAMD later became KSTP (K-St. Paul).
WAMD was somewhat successful - but not totally so. it was a very difficult struggle. The station was later moved to the old Radisson Hotel in downtown Minneapolis. My dad used to tell the story about the time the sheriff came to get his generator off the top floor of the Radisson Hotel. Things were not going too well at that time, and the station had trouble paying its bills, so a creditor obtained a court order by which they could take some equipment away from the radio station. Of course, if the creditor had been successful, the station would have been off the air and out of business. The sheriff came to the hotel to pick up the generator and the owner of the hotel, Mr. Simon Kruse, somehow got into the act, and he told the sheriff that he could not use the hotel elevator to move the generator. Mr. Kruse then told the sheriff that he better be careful, cause if he were to damage any of the hotel taking the generator down the stairs, that the hotel would hold the sheriff liable. The sheriff did not get the generator, the station stayed on the air, Mr. Hubbard paid his and continued to build his business. In 1923, Mr. Hubbard married Alice Rochford. From this marriage came my sister, Alice Liptak. Alice's mother died shortly after child birth. Sometime later, in 1932, my dad married my mother, Didrikke Stub, whose father was a Lutheran minister in Minneapolis. From that marriage came me and my brother, Richard, who died in an automobile accident in 1972.
In the old days - 1923 to the 1960s - the broadcasting business was very much different than it is today. Broadcasting was a business which was populated by pioneers-people who were truly new frontiersmen. People got into the broadcasting satisfaction of being a part of a communication's medium which they believed would cause profound changes in the world. Of course, early broadcasters were correct, because radio became not only an important entertainment medium, but a major news medium and a major medium for the delivery of political messages. In 1939 my dad and mother, who had been hearing about television, went to the World's Fair and had the opportunity to see television demonstrated. The excitement surrounding the demonstration of television was such that Mr. Hubbard purchased the first television camera from RCA which was ever sold to a broadcast station. In the summer of 1939, KSTP demonstrated live television by doing a closed-circuit feed of an American Legion parade in downtown Minneapolis
Mr. Hubbard made predictions about the future of television, which at the time were considered to be outlandish. He predicted, for example, that television would some day be used to monitor the movement of inmates in Prisons, and he also predicted that everyone Would have a television set in their home and would be able to watch news and entertainment programs. Along came World War 11 and television had to be put on the back burner until after the war.
Most people who are a part of the Hubbard Broadcasting family have no idea |
