They came to WLS at the latter part of 1934. They called them
Allie and Billie for short.
Back home in Michigan, they sang at church and in club concerts
in Northern Michigan where they were discovered and asked to audition
at WLS.
Not that we want to reveal their ages, but in the 1935 WLS family album,
they said that Billie was 21 and Allie was 19.
