...Gettysburg "changed the course of civilization," Omnibus Executive Producer Robert Saudek decided to re-enact the battle on TV. At first it was to be treated as a classroom demonstration, with tin soldiers on a sand table. This gave way to a plan to film the battle at Lenox, Mass, on terrain resembling Gettysburg without the monuments. One hundred and fifty bearded and costumed actors and volunteer extras, all Civil War buffs, armed with polished muzzle loaders and supported by cavalry and authentic 19th century cannon, stood by for four days as the October 1955 rains pelted them.

The original Lindsay & Crouse script for Call Me Madam said nothing whatever about ice skating, but this difficulty has not fazed producers G. Sheldon Balloch and Clifford N. Lenox in the least. They have simply interpolated a couple of skating scenes and proceeded to re-build the play around the bathtub-sized ice rink that they have squeezed onto the John Hancock stage...
