I'm so old I Remember when:

[EmmaDonovan]

1973

 

[Smoked Brisket]

Romper Room? With Miss Sally, who purportedly didn't like kids!

Apparently the format was repeated in each market with local people.
New Orleans had 'The Great McNut' and Mrs. Linda.
Baton Rouge had 'Buckskin Bill' and Mrs. Pat.

That explains a lot. I've no idea who the local lady was but I vaguely remember being on it once. Preschool or kindergarten days.
