Take a DQ for #1. Correct on Dick Smothers and David Nelson. (I’m impressed!) Don Reid and his brother Harold are members of the Statler Brothers. DQ: Work written before 1700? IQ1: Are you an Italian war orphan who was adopted by an American soldier? IQ2: Did you play a poor Mississippi teenager, a _Titanic_ survivor and a musical nun?

I never liked Dondi. I’m gonna guess #2 is Debbie Reynolds (Tammy and the Unsinkable Molly Brown, but I’m not sure of the nun.) Take a DQ for #3, 'cause I’m not that big a fan of Tammy. ---

I was never a big fan of Dondi, either, but I remember reading the strip when I was a kid. The third Debbie Reynolds reference was _The Singing Nun_. Sandra Dee starred in the other two Tammy movies. DQ: Work written in French? IQ1: Speaking of the Singing Nun, are you she? IQ2: Did you sing about guitars, Cadillacs and hillbilly music? IQ3: Were you a big man, with an eye like an eagle and as tall as a mountain? ---

As far as I remember the Singing Nun was Sister Sourire (or something like that). So, take a DQ for that one. Madame Pepperwinkle and I have been to see Dwight Yoakam in concert (she’s a fan). Ed Ames played Mingo to Fess Parker’s Daniel Boone. Yeah, I’m old.
