Here's a portion of the original Minneapolis Star caption published on July 22, 1958:
Dave Garroway was up with the chiggers on Lake Calhoun this morning. So were a lot of other people. These erstwhile slugabeds were out before sun-up to see "Today" – live and in person – from a point just south of the 32nd street beach on E. Lake Calhoun Blvd. Garroway looked healthy. Minnesota's Bronko Nagurski, a guest on the TV show, looked healthier. Singer Helen O'Connell [above, with Garroway], curlers in her blonde hair, looked sleepy-eyed and pretty. Newsman Frank Blair was as dapper as if he were on New York's E. 49th street. And Jack Lescoulie was grinning cheerfully – even without breakfast.
