If it's who I think it is, it's Frank Cady, who was Sam Drucker on both "Petticoat Junction" and "Green Acres." He was the town drunk in the TAGS "Make Room for Daddy" pilot and later played a newspaper reporter/photographer in Barney's second color episode, "The Legend of Barney Fife."

I am certain that this episode fell during Howard McNear's absence from the cast during his stroke and recovery. My recollection is that it is the episode where Andy & Opie are coming out of the barbershop right at the beginning of the episode and Andy complains about Floyd getting those hairs down the back of his shirt. He asks Opie to reach down in there and see if he can help. I can't for the life of me recall what the episode was, but I believe that's how it started. I was always a little surprised that they showed the face of that actor. I think they could have filmed the scene showing only the back of his head and it would have been more believeable that maybe it was Howard McNear. I guess that person was in fact a stand-in for Howard McNear, but Howard himself was not on that episode at all as opposed to a "double" who is used for some shots while the actor appears in others during an episode (such as in "Goober's contest" where a double is clearly evident for Floyd when he drives away from the gas station, shown only from the back).

Lands Choices !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Although the debate will roll on for as long as any one of us is still breathing, but I applaud T.V. Land for their choices on the episodes that they aired after the hour long behind the scene's show. After all who can keep a straight face after hearing " Right face, forward march, clean your gun-jump in the truck." Also "What do you want me to say for the ear----HUSSSSSSSSHHHHHHHHHHH ." The other show, which happens to be my all time favorite "CITIZENS ARREST" has some of the best comedy written for the show. The scene in the street is great. Gomer gets alot of support from the townfolk, and they really take advantage of sticking it to Barney. Now for the scene in the jail between Otis and Barney, I still can't sleep on my side, it still hurts too much, is classic. The scene at the end of the episode where Barney runs in from the other side of the filling station was probably examined by everyone closely. This scene has been debated recently, and I still say that "as the crow flies" from the jail to the filling station, on foot, the straight shot would have brought Barney just to that side of the station. The situation with Howard McNear was sad, but Andy did the right thing by bringing him back onto the show. The comedy situations that this actor brought to life are some of the best that the show had to offer. And if you watch closely you can see things that the other actors in the shows did to help him stay in the scenes. As ficesty as Floyd is in the show, he still has the line that comes the closest to a bad word. He asks Barney if the story about the assault between him and Mr. Foley was "cockinbull".

It had Doris Day and James Garner in it - 1963. Don played the part of a shoe salesman, which Doris tried to pass off as someone she knew. It is great family fare.

When she got her first paycheck for $30, which was strangely cashed by a crook, she went out and bought gifts. She bought herself a nice dress for $9.95, she spent $10.00 for groceries, she bought Opie a nice football, and Andy got 100 business cards. Now really Aunt Bea, you could spent a little more on Andy. There was a sign in the printing office that read 1000 business cards for $2.45, which means if she bought 100 for Andy, she spent a whopping 25 cents. She also ordered them to help out her new employers who were just starting out in business. Not much help. Course she did order 24 sheets of stationary too. That must have set her back at least 50 cents. Guess she is still economizing like she did when she bought Opie's shoes, her sugar, and the old freezer. But as always, her heart was in the right place. After all, it is the thought that counts. ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 5 Aug 2001 18:17:57 EDT From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: wbmutbb-digest V3 #230 Does anyon know where to buy a copy of Mayberry 101? ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 5 Aug 2001 18:25:14 EDT From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Mayberry 101 In a message dated 8/5/01 5:18:31 PM Central Daylight Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: << Does anyon know where to buy a copy of Mayberry 101? >> The place I'd go it to "Weaver's Dept.

I will respond privately by email to those who offered their services. Wouldn't there be far too many quotes to put on the web site?
