Memories

Mike and I have been talking about a couple of memories from our childhood.
Who remembers who the man from town was who was on the Ted Mack Original Amateur Hour with his one man band?
Also we are discussing the "shoot out on West Street" when we were children. I'm waiting to see if he remembers it.
Please share your memories...........
