How in the world did they get such good audio on that? Boom mic on a dolly?

Yep, the grips had a solid hold on the boom! They had great mics back in the day and ten years later I used the same set up to have a dish whose name I cannot for the life of me recall sing "Yesterday" while walking down the outside stairs of the new North Texas State College auditorium, through a courtyard and right onto the set of "Denton After Dusk" a late night, "Tonight Show" ripoff I hosted.

Sad to say, my tape of that event was lost many, many years ago but even if I had it today, I do not have a 2 inch tape player to run it through--
