They invited him to sing on-air and it instantly became a hit. Hence, they hired Hank and gave him his own show. He would perform twice in a week for 15 minutes on air. His radio show opened a bigger opportunity for him. Their road shows were doing well so Hank decided to drop out of school in October He also joined Louisiana Hayride radio show which all the more spread his fame all over the southeast.
