Two TAGS alumni on "The Lucy Show" recently. The firts was Hal Smith, 
aka Otis Campbell.

Lucy & Mr. Mooney had gone to this small town b/c his bank was financing 
a freeway thru town. Hal was head of the planning commission so they 
were surprised to find him marching in the parade to protest the 
freeway. "I'm in the band. Play the tuba. Can't have a band without a tuba"

Then also in "The Lucy Show" Sheldon Leonard came in b/c he was 
producing a new TV show & wanted Mr. Mooney's okay to use the bank for 
filming. Mooney recalled when Sheldon played all those gangsters & 
commented that now he was a TV producer and began naming the shows: 
"Real McCoys, I Spy, etc." Sheldon replies "You left out The Andy 
Griffith Show & Gomer Pyle"

Later Lucy sees Sheldon and group in the bank, recognizes him from his 
gangster movies and decides they're going to rob the bank (sound 
familiar? Substitute Barney & Gomer for Lucy & Mary Jane) so she decides 
to catch them red handed.

Eventually her mistake is corrected & she runs down the list of shows he 
produces. Again Sheldon has the line "You forgot The Andy Griffith Show" 
& "Gomer Pyle, USMC".
