Guess Who? #5


Okay Buckaroos, this time there are TWO identities to guess. And I have difficult clues for both. The female was hired by Bing Crosby to sing at the Turf Club and the male was circus acrobat by age 8 and later appeared at the Century of Progress exposition in Chicago with a trapeze act. Both are well known as other characters from TV's past.
Who are they? What does this have to do with Calvinism you ask? Well, pardon me for being human! The way I look at it, EVERYTHING has to do with Calvinism, in some form or fashion. Thank you.

  1. She looks a little like Lucille Ball to me.

  2. I don't recognize the face at all, but I am going to guess that "Unmasked" is a clue. Clayton Moore, the Lone Ranger?

    (Sheila says I should go with that.)

  3. Darn, I've been beat to the draw again. I'm sure that's Clayton Moore. I watched the Lone Ranger A LOT.

  4. @ Sheila - Although, I love Lucy, it's not her.

    @ stranger - It is indeed the late great, Clayton Moore. But, you are only HALF right. The winner has to get BOTH right. So you have helped the future winner. (which still could be you)

    @ Andy - The Lone Ranger was one of the best! Probably, the most moral western in television history.

    @ The future winner - I will leave one more clue to the female's identity: She replaced Phyllis Coates in the part on the TV series when Coates was offered a leading part in another TV series and left the show.

  5. btw stranger, ironically the lobby card had "UNMASKED" as the title of the episode. I didn't Photoshop that in. I was going to mention that a clue existed in the ad but, I thought it would be too obvious. Talk about predestination!

  6. Okay. Yvonne DiCarlo is my next choice.

  7. It's not, I repeat, not Yvonne DiCarlo.

    One last hint:
    All the letters in her name appear in the English alphabet...but, her initials are identical.

  8. And don't forget to name them BOTH when guessing or it doesn't count.

  9. Ok. I believe it Clayton Moore and Noel Neill aka Lois Lane, from the George Reeves Superman show. Both of her initials are the same - real life and character. I'm still working on the connection to Calvinism. Maybe I was just predestined to get this one right.

  10. Andy, Andy, Andy, you went and got it completely right! Congratulations brother man!

  11. Well, I was close. I thought her name was Christmas Genuflect!

  12. The Calvinist connection:

    We are all "Unmasked" before an total omniscient - actually knowing everything that can be known God!

    Moore was forced to remove his mask by a judge. We will have to remove our masks before the Righteous Judge.

    Noel Neill aka Lois Lane was Superman's only weakspot (other than Kyrptonite) yet he had to hide behind the mask of Clark Kent but we can't hide from God

  13. Sam, thanks for making the right connections. I knew they were there somewhere.
