You know what? I got it wrong. It wasn’t Art Linkletter, it was a contemporary of his, but I can’t think of his name. He had reddish brown hair and lots of freckles. I’ll have to do some research. Hard to look up someone whose name you don’t know!

The story goes with Arthur Godfrey. You can read it here:

. He had reddish brown hair and lots of freckles

That sounds like either Howdy Doody or Arthur Godfrey!!
