I think #11 is Anita Louise again. #12 looks like Betty Grable.

You are correct, Lavender. Jan Clayton was billed as Jane Clayton when she appeared in some Hopalong Cassidy movies in the late 1930's. She married Russell Hayden, who played Hoppy's pal, Lucky. He can currently be seen in the serial "Lost City Of The Jungle" on TCM on Saturdays. In 1945, Jan starred as Julie Jordan in "Carousel" on Broadway. She was in the movie "The Snake Pit" with Olivia DeHavilland, playing the "singing inmate". Most of us knew her as the mom on "Lassie". When Tommy Rettig got a little too old for the part of Jeff, the producers decided to bring in a new cast and Tommy and Jan Clayton were replaced by Jon Provost and Cloris Leachman. After one season, Cloris was replaced by June Lockhart. Of course, "Lassie" was sponsored by Campbell Soup for the entire run of the show. While she was still making the "Lassie" series, Jan Clayton found time to appear on a TV special with John Raitt where they recreated their famous duet from "Carousel". Here it is: Nice work, Lavender. You get to go next.

Thanks to all who responded. Well done everyone! We have them all now. Since Lavender and Princess don't post photos, SCSU1975 gets to post next, with Shutoo as backup.

Here are some hints: Her first husband was a regular in the "Hopalong Cassidy" movies when they first met. He can be seen in the serial that TCM is currently showing on Saturday mornings. Her Broadway musical was not a comedy. The TV series that she was in was sponsored by a soup company.

Very good so far. We still need #1, 4, 8, 9, 10, and 17. Does anybody else want to take a shot?

Yes, or should I say "Oui". "Dites-Moi" was the last song in "South Pacific". Here it is: That's about the extent of my French. Vous pouvez continuer, Princesse. (I had to look that up.)

Thanks, Lavender. An actress and singer appeared with her first husband in a couple of Hopalong Cassidy movies, where she got to sing a little. Later she played the female lead in a very successful Broadway musical. In the fifties, she played the mom on a very popular TV family drama. Can you name her?

Princess, as hot as it is, we had a two week tournament at my golf club and Sunday I shot my best round in several years. I finished second in my division by one stroke, one lousy stroke! Oh well, back to the boards. Let's continue with our French theme with this next one: Est-ce que Parce que Vous m'aimez?

These guys are seen in hundreds of films on TCM. We've posted some of them previously, but a refresher may be in order. Remember, we always have newbies browsing the TCM message boards. This may be new for them. There is no common theme except that they are all prolific character actors. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17. 18. 19. 20. How many do you know?

Leslie Charteris, the author of "The Saint" books, wrote the melody for the theme music for the 60's TV series that starred Roger Moore in the title role. The series was filmed in England and probably led to Moore being cast as the replacement for Sean Connery in the James Bond movies. Here is a short clip:

You are correct, Lavender. Hitchcock's wife was Alma Reville, so Hitch had the character in the movie be named Alma. Dolly Haas Alma Reville with hubby. Good job, Lav. You're next.

#8 is young Lauren Bacall with her mother, Natalie #9 are, left to right, Carol Hughes, Marie Wilson, and June Travis #12 The woman with Ann Dvorak was listed as Mexican actress Raquel Torres, who appeared with the Marx Brothers in "Duck Soup". She married Jon Hall twice. However, it is not Miss Torres. It's a contract player named Marjorie King and the photo was taken in 1931. Here's the article: Year of Ann Dvorak: Day 2 When Ann Dvorak was an uncredited chorus girl at MGM, she spent most of her off-time soaking up the sun at the beach. This love affair with the Pacific Ocean would last her entire life, and she ultimately resided in both Malibu and Honolulu. One sunny day in 1931, MGM photographer Clarence Sinclair Bull accompanied Ann and an0ther contract player to the sandy shores and snapped some publicity shots. Seven decades later one of these photos, provocatively showing the women with their tops pulled down and backs facing the camera was published on a mass produced postcard. While Ann was correctly credited on the postcard, the other gal in the photo was erroneously listed as Raquel Torres. In fact, the other bathing beauty was Marjorie King. Over the past decade, the photo has made the rounds online, with many appearances through various social network platforms. Unfortunately, most of the time the image is listed as Ann & Raquel instead of Ann & Marjorie. When looking at photos of both women, it’s pretty clear who is sharing the sand with Ann. Raquel Torres (Courtesy of the Starlet Showcase blog) Marjorie King (Courtesy of All Star Pics) Neither Torres or King had much of a career in Hollywood, with both opting for marriage over acting. However, both made a small contribution to pop culture, with Torres memorably appearing opposite the Marx Brothers in Duck Soup, and King allegedly inspiring the creation of a cocktail known as the Margarita. The photo proved just to be as alluring in 1931 as it was today when it was used on the cover of a South American magazine called Cine-Mundial . This was probably Ann’s appearance as a cover girl. While they spelled her name Devorak, at least they got Marjorie right.

Princess and Lavender, you two really know your stuff. Well done by both of you. I thought that Little Joe's horse might be a real tough one, but Lavender got it In fact, Lavender got six and Princess got the other four, so Lavender gets to post the next question. Here's Buffy with Mrs. Beasley. And Little Joe with Cochise.

Hint: It's a 1950's movie.

Thanks Princess. We'll call this next one "What was the name of?" What was the name of: 1. Buffy's doll on "Family Affair"? 2. The family dog on "My Three Sons"? 3. Lumpy Rutherford's real first name on "Leave It to Beaver"? 4. The town where Dale Evans ran a cafe? 5. Porky's dog on the early years of "Lassie"? 6. Howdy Doody's sister? 7. The other adult mousketeer besides Jimmie Dodd? 8. The young Chinese fellow who ran errands for Paladin? 9. The New York nightclub where Ricky Ricardo worked? 10. Little Joe's Pinto horse on "Bonanza"? #10 is a tough one, but the others shouldn't be too hard.

That's from "Bonjour, Paris" from the 1957 movie "Funny Face". It, however, was written by Roger Edens and Leonard Gershe, not the Gershwins. It was sung by Fred Astaire, Kay Thompson, and Audrey Hepburn as they walked around Paris. Princess, when you lived in Paris, did you ever try to do that same walking tour, singing all the way of course?

I think it's Wanda Hendrix. She appeared in all of those TV shows that were mentioned. She started in movies in the 1940's, appearing in "Nora Prentiss" with Ann Sheridan, "Prince Of Foxes" with Tyrone Power, and "Captain Carey, U.S.A." with Alan Ladd, the movie that introduced the song "Mona Lisa". Her first husband was actor and war hero Audie Murphy. Her second husband, James Stack, was the brother of actor Robert Stack. I always thought she looked a little like Gene Tierney.

Finally, after almost a month, some clues. I figured the cartoon character is Fred Flintstone. Prior to this recent clue, I had no idea what the Prehistoric Patriarch could be. Mack the knife was the easy one. A sea bird doesn't tell me anything. All I could think of was a gull. Now, my research, which was much too extensive for this, reveals that there is a bird in the guillemot, or auk family called the common murre. The South American Ostrich-like bird must be the rhea, another new word that I was unfamiliar with. So, putting the clues together, my answer is Fred MacMurray.

At first glance, this is just a photo of teenage Elizabeth Taylor holding a dog. Maybe it's the camera angle, but does it appear that her big toes are unusually long?

Terry Kilburn as Tiny Tim and June Lockhart as Belinda Cratchit were both in MGM's 1938 version of "A Christmas Carol" Both are still with us today.

"The Sweetest Song In The World" from the 1938 movie "We're Going To Be Rich". By the way, today, July 15th, is St. Swithin's Day. He was the Bishop of Winchester and is the patron saint of Winchester Cathedral. Do you remember that song? Legend has it that if it rains on St. Swithin's Day, it will rain for forty more days, but if it is fair on that day, it will remain fair for forty days. Next: A song from Vera Lynn in a movie.

Yes, It's Marcia Mae Jones. Here she is with Jackie Cooper in "The Champ" way back in 1931. With Bonita Granville in "These Three" (1936). With Shirley Temple in "Heidi"(1937). And in "The Way We Were"(1973). She also played the sister of Debbie Reynolds in "The Daughter Of Rosie O'Grady" in 1950, one of Debbie's earliest movies. Good work, Princess. You get to go next.

Hitchcock cast an actress in a movie who he thought resembled his wife, so he gave her character the same first name as his wife. What was the movie and who was the actress?

Do you know me? I was a child actress, although I was never considered a star. I actually started as a toddler in a few silent films before my career in talkies began. I worked with many of the top juveniles in Hollywood, including Jackie Cooper, Shirley Temple, Sybil Jason, Jackie Moran, Frankie Darro, and Bonita Granville. In my teens and twenties, I worked sporadically. I even worked with Debbie Reynolds in one of her early pictures, playing her sister. In the 1950's and 1960's, I occasionally worked in television, often playing mothers and aunts. In the seventies, I appeared in an "A" list movie with Robert Redford, although my role was minor. I retired in the eighties after a career that spanned more than fifty years. Do you know me?
