A real-life TAGS example

[Joe]

I thought this was worth posting on the Bulletin Board. It's an excerpt
from a recent article in *The Buffalo News *about the retirement of the
police chief of a small village up here in Western NY:

*"John J. Swick, the longest-serving police chief in New York State, is
trading his badge for a fishing pole.*

*Swick marked his final day as Village of Middleport police chief Friday
after 46 years with the department, including 37 years as its leader.
Swick’s youngest son, Jeffrey, remembers when his father walked to work
most days, living right down the street from the police station*

* His longtime friend Ross Annable said "**I call him the Andy Taylor of
Middleport from ‘The Andy Griffith Show,’ because he keeps the peace and
takes care of his community and knows everybody".*

*That's quite a compliment.*

Watching an old episode of Benson yesterday from 1980 and the doctor in this 
episode was "Howard Sprague" Jack Dodson but looked strange. He had no 
mustache!! Plus he had gained quite a bit of weight just like all us old folks 
seem to do! He was excellent in this show, had humor, great part, great 
dialogue!

RE: WBMUTBB Digest, Vol 25, Issue 30

[gajohio]

Make that quadruple!  Dub Taylor, a 4-appearance TAGS actor most probably
known as a "Fed" - Talbot the postman & Billy Ray a postman.
He was also the circuit preacher hitchin' Charlene and Dud (#1) in a
Mountain Wedding and Emmett's brother-in-law, Ben Beecham.

His last role may have been missed by many as it's a color episode, just
like the Gunsmoke episode (season 12, 1967) shown on MeTV Thursday.

Dub's real first name was Walter, but he was called "W" - a nickname as a
boy and eventually it was shorted to "Dub".

I recently ordered from Weavers.  I wanted to get some more shirts that are

stickers.  My orders always arrive quickly and the shirts are a good quality.   
I must say, I got my husband a sweatshirt last year with Andy & Opie fishing.  
It says "I'd rather be fishing at Myer's Lake".   He gets comments every time 
he wears it.  Some people know what it means and others ask where Myer's Lake 
is.  I've also given the bumper stickers to friends and have them on both my 
truck and car.  It's fun to watch people point and smile when they read it.Take

I looked at the record closely and the members of Tommy Dorsey's Band were

Surprise Alumni Sightings

Watching MeTV last night, I was a little surprised to see Ken Lynch (Capt.
Barker in "The Manhunt", FBI agent in "A Black Day for Mayberry") on "All
In the Family" - not as a gruff detective or cop, but as a refrigerator
repairman trying to fix the Bunker's fridge. Maybe Aunt Bee should have
called him when Andy told her to "Call the man!"

Then, on "Dick Van Dyke", there was Mr. Jackson, the pompous magazine
editor from "Andy on Trial" (Roy Roberts) , as a pompous sponsor of the
Allen Brady Show - married to none other than the snooty Mrs. Bixby (Isabel
Randolph) of the Women's Historical Society in "A Plaque for Mayberry". Now
that is a match made in heaven.

Andy tells Opie not to pull horsehairs out of the lapel on his suit jacket.
What is that about? Thanks


According to The Horsehair Jacket Canvas -Tailoring – A Hand Tailored 
Suit

Horsehair, also known as horsehair canvas or hair canvas, is a woven 
interfacing that provides excellent sturdiness and has a coarse texture. 
Despite its name, it is not a thick material and can feel rough to the touch, 
making it unsuitable for wearing next to the skin.

Horsehair is commonly used in fine tailoring, particularly for achieving a 
beautifully rolled lapel. In bespoke suits, horsehair is often used in the 
jacket to ensure that it maintains its shape.

In the past, horsehair was used in crinoline petticoats to support oversized 
skirts. However, most of what is sold as "horsehair" today is actually 
synthetic and made from materials such as polyester or nylon. Historically, 
horsehair was made from the tail hair of horses, which is stiff and strong.

Re: Where is everyone?

[Janet Anderson]

Well, as for me, I really slacked off on posting to the digest because I had so 
much trouble with my posts not going through.  It's discouraging to spend time 
and effort writing a post and then never seeing it appear on the digest; or, as 
in a few cases, seeing it appear several days or a week or two later when it's 
not relevant anymore.  I don't know what caused that because I didn't used to 
have that problem, and I've been a member of the digest for well over twenty 
years.  Having said that, I do still read every digest that I get.

I do not spend a whole lot of time on Facebook, but I do read and post more 
there.  It's immediate, you can post photos, and it's easier to interact with 
folks.  The digest still has its place, but I think we all have to admit that 
it's pretty "old school" these days!  I commend Allan for keeping it going for 
those who don't do Facebook.

Now, I just hope this post goes through and I see it in tomorrow's digest!

{Spam?} Where is Everyone?

[Brearry]

Hey Wilbur,

I understand your frustration and disappointment concerning our
WBMUTBB site.
It's tough when things change and we can't or are unable...

I personally enjoy the new FB page page, as I always had trouble posting to
this site.
For some reason, probably due to my lack of computer skills, everything I
sent seem
to show up weird, so I just quit posting here.

I hope you can find some when to connect with us on FB. And your vet page
too.

As always, "here's to you and yours",

Aunt Bee and Rock Hudson

[Dennis Beal]

I happened to watch some of the old Western movie "Horizons West" (1960) last 
night. Aunt Bee (Frances Bavier) played the mother of a young Rock Hudson! This 
is interesting because in the TAGS episode "Mayberry Goes Hollywood" Andy asks 
Aunt Bee if Rock Hudson was her favorite actor. Of course she agreed since she 
once played his mother!

In addition to Aunt Bee, Nurse Mary Simpson (Julie Adams) played the wife of 
the bad guy (Raymond Burr / a.k.a. Perry Mason). A young Dennis Weaver (Chester 
on "Gunsmoke") was also on it. And you know what? He didn't walk like Chester. 
I'm sure Goober was disappointed.

TAGS Is Everywhere

[DAVID QUINN]

   In this part of Oklahoma, our cable system carries Antenna TV.I 
don't know if you get it where you are, but at 9 P.M. central time, they show 
old reruns of The Johnny Carson Show.   On Monday night they showed the one 
from November 19, 1980.In one of the early segments, Johnny was talking 
about things that have names that very few people know.For instance, the 
plastic tip on shoe laces is called an aglet.   Then he asked if anyone knew 
what they called the plaster of paris that law enforcement uses to pick up 
footprints.A woman in the audience yelled out "Moulage".Johnny said 
"Right, how did you know that?"   The woman yelled out "I watch the Andy 
Griffith Show".Fans are everywhere, even in 1980.

Alumni Sightings

[DAVID QUINN]

Earlier this week on MeTV's Perry Mason, they showed "The Case Of The 
Trecherous Toupee".I noticed several TAGS alumni on the show.Otis was 
there as was Orville Monroe.But the obscure TAGS alumni on this show was 
Thomas Browne Henry.I have always enjoyed the acting of Mr. Henry.   He is 
not a handsome leading man, but he is a good actor.

Now I have a little quiz for all of the fans of TAGS.   Thomas Browne Henry 
appeared once on TAGS, and without looking it up can you remember in which 
episode he appeared?Here are a couple of hints, he appeared on the show for 
only about a minute (he did speak), and he was not a resident of Mayberry.
Remember, no cheating.

[DAVID QUINN]

  On Wednesday's MeTV Perry Mason, there were a plethora of TAGS alumni.
The main character was Briscoe Darling.The Judge was Chuck O'Malley.The 
murderer was Malcolm Tucker.Also appearing, even though she did not serve 
any Chicken-Ala-King was Irene Tedrow (Mrs. Foster).Almost every day on 
Perry Mason there are one or two TAGS alumni, but I enjoy finding four or more.

{Spam?} Gunsmoke on TAGS

[m white]

TAGS fans,
If you're interested in hearing the Gunsmoke radio episode where John Dehner 
plays a seller of patent medicine (much like his Colonel Harvey character on 
TAGS), look for the episode from Nov 14, 1953 titled "Professor Lute Bone". 
There are several places on-line where you can listen to or even download 
Gunsmoke episodes. Howard McNear has a good part in the episode as Doc and, of 
course, Parley Baer is Chester.

Re: Gunsmoke and TAGS

[Gary Muskat]

And let's not forget Chester was played by Parley Baer who went on to play 
Mayor Stoner on TAGS.

   1. Gunsmoke on TAGS, of Vice-Verse (m white)

TAGS fans,
Was listening to a "Gunsmoke" radio drama from 1953. Doc (Howard McNear) was 
all upset when Matt got back into Dodge because there was a man peddling a 
miracle elixir cure that contained opium. The "Professor" peddling the miracle 
cure was played by John Dehner, who of course was still peddling miracle cures 
a hundred years or so later in Mayberry as Colonel Harvey! Let's just say 
Mayberry was much more friendly to him than Dodge.
Then, in the next episode, Matt went up against an army deserter and suspected 
murderer played by James Best, aka the Guitar Player Jim Lindsey.
And having listened now to the first two seasons of Gunsmoke on radio, Howard 
McNear is listed as one of the stars but John Dehner, who is on more episodes, 
is only ever listed as a guest star.

Pets names.....and Barney in the army

First, to those folks who wrote in with all those TAGS names for their

clever and fun to read.

As far as Barney being a WWII veteran - I'm pretty sure during "Quiet Sam"
in Season 1, they talked about serving in the Army during the Korean War -
which definitely would fit the timeline for graduating in 1945.

Barney in WW2

Barney could have graduated from high school in May 1945, immediately

possible."

I can’t even begin to tell you how many TAGS characters are on the old Perry 
Mason episodes. From Willis Bouchey as a judge to Dabbs Greer yelling “Yes, I 
killed him. I killed the big gas bag.”, (The Case of the Prudent Prosecutor).  
Aunt Bee has a vital role in The Case of the Crimson Kiss.  And you can’t 
forget the very first episode with Whitney Blake (The Case of the Restless 
Redhead) as she’s being pursued by some nefarious hoodlums. I’ve counted as 
many as 4 TAGS links in one episode. Even if you don’t care for the show, DVR 
some and fast forward to see how many you count.

Re: Mayberry Days during the week

[Jeff Koontz]

>Hello , what are your thoughts on Mayberry Days during the week compared to 
>the weekend ?
Holland - it all depends on what you want. There are a lot more people coming 
in early to avoid the crowds than there used to be, but you have the advantage 
of being an hour away and enjoying Mount Airy during the "off season" when 
downtown isn't as crowded. There are things to do during the week and that 
includes just getting a bottle of pop, sitting down and counting cars. 

The schedule is now online at 
https://www.surryarts.org/mayberrydays/schedule.html. Weekday activities 
include a guided backstage tour of the Playhouse, John Floyd "The Mouth of 
Mayberry" comedy show, and movies at the Earle.
Other possibilities not on the schedule:
- Walk right into Snappy Lunch without the line- Take your time going thru the 
Andy Griffith Museum without Bernie crowding you- Learn about Surry County 
music history at the Old Time Music Heritage Hall (included with AGM 
admission). The Women in Old-Time Music is their latest exhibit- Mount Airy 
Regional History Museum is downtown- Take a squadcar tour- Go see the world's 
largest open face granite quarry- (This goes for everyone)  Stop in at the 
Playhouse and come say hey. I'm headed to Mount Airy on Monday and will be 
helping the Arts Council all week

Some of the main stars have passed on so there isn’t as much that includes 
whos-who anymore but there is still plenty to do. Besides, you’re not supposed 
to be in a hurry. You know that, don’t ya? 

Mayberry Days during the week

[H S]

Hello , what are your thoughts on Mayberry Days during the week compared to the 
weekend ?
Last time I went ( maybe 2 or was it 3 years ago, there was barely anything 
going on/ kind of like any other day up there )., Would this
still be expected during the weekdays of Mayberry Days ?

Thank you

Trained noticing

[bjh4757]

In the color show, The Taylor's Go To Hollywood,  I saw something interesting.  
 When they are having a big send off at the bus stop and the bus rolls up, off 
in the distance I could see a big studio building and a busy freeway.I looked 
up the 40 acres Backlot and could see the layout.Fascinating.  Just fascinating

Aunt Bee driving

[Ron Blankenship]

In the episode, "Aunt Bee Learns to Drive", S6E21, after she accidentally
hits the tree, she damages the right rear of the car.  She and the man from
the city go around to look at the damage, but when they get there, they're
looking at the side that's on front of the tree, not where it was damaged.
