We had Alley Cat and Pansy

[1gobluedem]

Cat and dog puppets. The show was hosted by 'Mr. Mayor.' The puppeteer was also the nightly weatherman and was always drunk, we learned years later when Mr. Mayor became an active Dem in our town and knew our parents.

They also showed cartoons and had various games for the kids in the audience. The prize was always a giant SLOWPOKE sucker. When it was time for the cartoon to run the kids would chant "One, two, three...roll 'em Ferndock!"

No clowns though.

Swabby later became our local Bozo the Clown.
