Excuse me–I forgot to keep track of the numbers. :o First set: 107. Scrooge’s deceased partner Marley was played by Leo G. Carroll–oddly enough, on TV, he played the alive-and-well Cosmo Topper in a TV series with a ghostly couple and their St. Bernard. 🙂 108. Ralph Bellamy. (“The Professionals” were Burt Lancaster, Lee Marvin, Woody Strode, and another actor whose name I didn’t know.) Second set: 107. He was killed by a blade on the revolving windmill–Nello had been attracted to the millers’ daughter but was banished from the property because of this. He never came back until the end of the story. 108. Jerome Cowan. 109. He wandered around on the battlefield wearing a sandwich board reading “JOIN THE ARMY AND SEE THE NAVY.” 😃 110. Albert Einstein. More questions: 115. Whom did Anthony Perkins kick down the stairs in _Psycho?_ 116. Which of these ballplayers played himself in _Pride of the Yankees:_ Babe Ruth; Bill Dickey; Bob Meusel? 117. In _It’s a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World,_ who were the fireman at the airport? 118. In _Mr. Holland’s Opus,_ what popular song does Richard Dreyfuss play for his class, pointing out that a classical composer wrote the melody? 119. What actor in _Li’l Abner_ appeared on _M_A_S_H\* (on TV)? 120. In _Angel in My Pocket,_ with Andy Griffith playing the lead character, what happens to the new organ he got for his church? ---

1. All of them. (Bill Dickey flattens a player who insults Gehrig [Gary Cooper] at one point.) 2. “Lover’s Concerto.” (Johann Sebastian Bach wrote the music.) 3. Peter Palmer. (He was Li’l Abner himself; he appeared in the _M_A_S_H\* episode “An Eye for a Tooth,” in which Winchester gets his jollies by playing Hawkeye and Hunnicutt against Margaret, until they catch wise and pull the rug out from under him. Palmer played a helicopter pilot.) 4. It was destroyed by fire ☹ when a (hidden) moonshine still exploded in the church. (When I saw that I was ready to chew nails.) :mad: ---
