Memory Lane


If your cable company carries WGN out of Chicago, at 12 noon EST today they are going to be playing the old shows Ray Rayner and Friends, Garfield Goose and Friends and Bozo's Circus. GREAT stuff, especially if you've got kids around that need to be amused.



On December 28, 1953, Chicago area kids were introduced to the whimsical story of Suzy Snowflake "tap, tap, tappin'" on every windowpane, seen on "Garfield Goose and Friends" then on WBBM-TV. Like "Hardrock, Coco and Joe", Suzy too was brought to life by the stop-motion animators of Centaur Productions. Norma Zimmer was Suzy's voice and the song was sung by The Norman Luboff Choir, a premier studio group who recorded with well-known artists, such as Frank Sinatra and Harry Belafonte.
