BWANA BUS and Lighting is a small group, its regular members being only Don Blair and Al Symonds. In the summer of '67 there was a Bwana Bus with chairs and rug and ashtrays, serving both as a place for moving cast parties and as transportation to stationary ones.

His color television set just broadcasts wobbles. His Icarus act fizzles when the rockets tied to his back go off piecemeal and get pointed the wrong way, driving him only horizontally...
