I REMEMBER "old yeller".....AND WAS PETRIFIED WITH ANGUISH WHEN OLD YELLER WAS GORED BY THE BULL...BUT KEPT MY EYES ON TOMMY......HE WAS LIKE ME....FOUR YEARS OLDER, HE KNEW WHO HE WAS....I DID NOT, YET! THE 50'S WERE A DIFFICULT TIME TO FIND ROLE MODELS....MONTGOMERY CLIFF, JAMES DEAN, RAYMOND BURR, TAB HUNTER, ROCK HUDSON AND ANTHONY PERKINS....ONE JUST HAD TO "KNOW"......NO ONE WAS OUT....FOR THAT WAS A CAREER ENDER IN THE EISENHOWER DAYS....DISNEY DUMPED KIRK WHO THEN BECAME A CARPET CLEANER!
