Too bad we don't have such talents today at Fred Allen. His radio feud with Jack Benny rivaled the mock feud between Bing Crosby and Bob Hope. Anyone who ever heard it can never forget "Allen's Alley" with cast members Kenny Delmar as Senator Claghorn, Paker Fennelly as Titus Moody, Minerva Pious as Mrs. Nussbaum, and Peter Donald as Ajax Cassidy. Happy Birthday also to Brooke Shields, Joe Namath, Norman Vincent Peale, Clint Eastwood and Don Ameche. Great job, compu-smart.

My favorites: Gregory Harrison, have not heard about him in a while; Sharron Gless is another favorite of mine, and Norman Vincent Peale, used to read his books when I was exploring positive thinking years ago, and visited his church, The Marble Collegiate Church, but by the time he had already passed away.

The addition of Broadway Joe Namath is a great one, compu-smart. No one who saw it will never forget the "Heidi" game in 1968 when the Oakland Raiders pulled the game out and won after NBC-TV abandoned coverage of the game to show the classic children's story. Happy Birthday also to Walt Whitman.
