...first opened the front door, the three students were dumbfounded. Inside, the house was bedlam. Assorted children were attempting to catch several stray dogs apparently intent upon the family's female beagle. A second glance however, was enough to reassure the tutees. Unruffled and majestic in the doorway stood Myron Piper Gilmore. Bidding them a cordial welcome, he laughed the slightly apologetic laugh of a man who, though not immune to crisis, can almost always rise above it. Perhaps for this very ability, he is now a full professor and Chairman of the History Department...

...carefree, shuffling manner, both as narrator to the audience and participant in the comedy, Andy Griffith focuses the play excellently. As his harried sergeant, Myron McCormick stiffens with rage and groans in despair at just the right moments. Yet he also includes a touch of pathos which gives the comedy depth. Roddy McDowall has a smaller role as Will's whining and utterly realistic buddy, but he manages it neatly.
