Mrs. Patton Your Allergist is a Quack! Change your Pharmacy also!

Memories of traveling to Roslyn ,New York to visit my Allergist. Being asthmatic as child had it's drawbacks but with medication I was able to have a normal childhood. I played sports, swam and skied. Went horseback riding. With the proper medication and allergy shots I was able to function normally and for that I'm grateful. Arthur (Peter J. Voltrian) a sickly boy from the city moves with his mother to a nearby ranch. Arthur gets a taste of horses and hay and begins to wheeze as they are welcomed at The Broken Wheel Ranch. Being asthmatic I was wondering where this episode was going? Arthur's Mom gives the hands strict orders not to feed Arthur certain foods or they will trigger his malady.The next day Arthur with a fresh supply of pills from his Quack allergist set out with Joey(Bobby Diamond)Ranch cook Pete (William Faucett) and Packy Lambert (Roger Mobley) on an afternoon of exploring the countryside and Arthur hoping to get great pictures from his camera. The four wanderers break for lunch as Arthur gives in and eats a greasy hamburger. Just a matter of time for the phlegm to build in his weak lungs but not to worry he has his medicine in his person close by. Meanwhile back at the ranch Jim Newton (Peter Graves) receives a phone call that the pills Arthur has are tainted and should be dis- guarded. The asthma attack begins and a deadly snake adds to Arthur's insurmountable problems. You may remember Arthur as Danny Kaye's side kick Peter in the wonderful musical Hans Christian Anderson. This episode I give two big inhales of Primatene mist!
