David Geer from Jewett City, Connecticut: “I’m
the world-champion woodchopper”
Geer had recently defended his title
at the Timber Carnival in Albany, Oregon.
He demonstrates his prowess onstage.
Geer continued to make a name for himself in the woodchopping field,
especially around his Connecticut home, well into the 80s.
[William J Martin] from New Rochelle, NY: “I
delivered diapers to Hal March’s house today” (For his new baby boy)
March’s wife Candy gave birth to baby
Peter on July 14.
Special Guest Ricardo Montalban
Montalban acts out American idioms
(such as “bend an ear”) literally, in a delightfully clever segment. Montalban became a star in his native Mexico
in the 1940s before coming to Hollywood and making a name for himself, mostly
in B-pictures and television. Later in
his life he would gain even greater fame as Mr. Roarke on the TV series Fantasy Island, as well as the
villainous title character in Star Trek
II: The Wrath of Khan (1982). Here, Montalban
is about to appear on Broadway in the musical Jamaica.
