Yes, Dr. Lyons it was as sponsor of the "Manhattan Merry-Go-Round" where the
"songs were sung so clearly you can understand every word and sing them
yourself." The show ended in 1949.

The "Fitch Bandwagon" show ran for ten years on NBC (ending in 1948) sort of
morphing into a situation comedy show by the end. The theme, however, was
always--

Laugh a-while, Let a Song be your style,
Use Fitch Shampoo!
Don't despair, Use your head, save your hair,
Use Fitch Shampoo!

Actually Manhatton Merry-Go-Round sponsored by Dr. Lyon's tooth paste and
Dr. Lyon's tooth powder.
