Jo Ann Jones

“Miss Jo Ann Jones, record librarian is the youngest of three daughters of Mr. and Mrs. L. S. Jones of Clarkton. Her work at KBOA includes keeping track of some 15,000 records and a transcription library which includes 5,000 selections. Each record requires three file cards to catalog it according to title and artist. Miss Jones, in cooperation with the program director and announcers, selects the music to be played on the programs each day and sees that the records are refiled for the next day’s operation. Her six years of music lessons have been helpful in her work at KBOA. She is now living with her sister and family, Mr. and Mrs. Glenn Wilcoxson, at 607 Lester St. in Kennett.” (Daily Dunklin Democrat, 1957)
