Sure. Tom Terrific and Mighty Dog Manfred. Tom's hat was an inverted coronet and he would take it off and play it. Mr. Wizard was on NBC and his name was Don Herbert. Crusador Rabbit's pal was Rags the tiger.
The wizard I was talking about was on Tom Terrific, there was a kid who was never happy with who he was and so the wizard would turn him into another person or animal and the kid would always end up begging to be changed back. The wizard would chant some cute phrase and then always end it with "time to change this one back". Ring any bells?
I guess working three man for the first time and then comnig home to read this brought back a lot of things I had forgotten.
By the by, for those listening I went to a summer league here in Seattle last night and did my first three man. I am sure it must have looked hilarious to others as I attempted to adapt but I loved it. I can not wait to do some more and learn it better in camp this summer. (Had some great officials to work with and be taught by.)
