Jerry and Tony were so cute as young boys and you can really see the star quality in young Jerry. “Then we watched a man change a tire on a bus.”

These episodes really are vintage. How is it that Doris Packer looks better in 1963 than she does in 1957?

She borrowed June's beauty cream? She got a better hairdo? Actually I didn't think she changed much at all. She seemed to get more scary as Beaver aged. She was really mad when Beaver watched the Ritz Bros. for his book report. I think all the book reports were badly written.

I wonder if she and Ward got together after he got back on his feet.

That's probably it.

“How do you do Mrs. Wiley.”

Yes...Doris Packer again. Absolutely classic. Really, a great character actress, but probably she is best-known as Mrs. Cornelia Rayburn.

Also, her scenes with Gracie, as Mrs. Sohmers, on the Burns and Allen Show, are also classic.
