Hey, Mayberry friends. It's been a while since I've posted on the digest and
let me say, I'm proud to be here. There were a couple of posts about Mayberry
sightings so I'd thought I'd throw in my measley 3 cents worth. On December 7
we celebrated Pearl Harbor Day (the Morrison Sisters were really busy) and I
watched the movie "Tora! Tora! Tora" on TV about the attack on Pearl Harbor.
After viewing the movie awhile I discovered there was a plethora (how would
Barney say that?) of actors in this movie that had also played on TAGS so I
began to write them down: Edward Andrews, the lecturer Professor Hobart St.
John, who was enamored of Aunt Bee because she looked like his late wife. Norm
Alden played Tom Strongbow and also one of the opponents in Howard the Bowler.
William Schallert (Quiet Sam). Ken Lynch, who played several police officers
and captains on TAGS. Leon Ames (not the peanut butter sandwich Leon) who was
the school principal in 'The Senior Play'. George Neise, Roger Courtney from
'The Club Men". Harlan Warde, the 'Spoiled Kid's' Dad. He also was in the
episode 'Barney Fife, Realtor'. Edmon Ryan, who played one of the fake FBI
agents (We Defy the Mafia!). Douglas McCairn was in the episode 'The Cannon',
where he and his girlfriend were going to rob the mobile museum from Raleigh.
There may have been more (it was a long movie!)
I know it's a long post but I just had to share. I love wbmutbb and I love
TAGS!Larry in Lincolnton
