GETTING YOUR FIRST T.V. SET

Running over to Best Buy or Costco is no big deal to select a flat screen TV. This photo (sent to me by a Stump reader) tells such a story of a boy and his first T.V. set. He is ready to watch Rin-Tin-Tin, The Lone Ranger, The Gene Autry Show and a host of other classics. This is one happy kid!

Another note: While fancy new TV screens constantly blur or burn out, a TV like the one pictured lasted for years. When Mr. Fred Meyer died in his Northwest Portland condo, his TV was playing in black and white!

MATTEL TOYS SETTLES WITH ELLY MAY

Donna Douglas who played Elly May Clampett on the hit series Beverly Hillbillies won her long drawn out law suit with Mattel Toys and CBS Consumer Products Inc, in which she claimed the companies never got her approval for her name and likeness for a Barbie Doll. In earlier filings CBS told her they did not owe anything due to the exclusive rights to her character. Douglas's lawyer said a confidential agreement has been made. What would Granny think?
