Extraordinary Nielsen. Emerging as the real stars of Hee Haw are some of the previously unknown supporting players, who are less polished rustics. Stringbean, the emaciated chap who appears with the puppet crow on his shoulder, can barely read, according to friends, and has to be taught lines by his wife. Junior Samples, the fat man (275 Ibs.), professed to have nothing to wear but his "Sunday overalls" at a CBS celebration party.

An ordained Congregational minister, he had spent ten years as president of Alabama's predominantly Negro Talladega College, where "we lived together, Negroes and whites, without any distinction, defying Jim Crow." He had later taught ethics in California and served as assistant U.S. Commissioner of Education. As a scholar, administrator and civil libertarian, Gallagher zealously defended C.C.N.Y.'s academic excellence and fought hard to meet the rising educational aspirations of the city's growing Negro and Puerto...
