Buddy Ebson Dying (http://apnews.excite.com/article/20030626/D7RTFNKO1.html)

I wonder who had summer 2003 in the Buddy Ebson pool. Says here he was admitted in to the hospital today at the age of 95. I give it 2 weeks from today.

Buddy Ebsen hospitalized

TORRANCE, California (AP) -- Buddy Ebsen, who portrayed poor mountaineer Jed Clampett on the '60s TV series "The Beverly Hillbillies," was admitted to a hospital for an undisclosed illness.

It wasn't known when Ebsen, 95, was checked into Torrance Memorial Medical Center but hospital spokeswoman Ann O'Brien told The Daily Breeze of Torrance for Thursday's editions that the actor's "condition is good."

Ebsen, who lives in nearby Palos Verdes Estates, began his television career and nine-year stint as Clampett in 1962, when the series premiered. He later took the title role in the CBS detective drama "Barnaby Jones," which ran from 1973 until 1980.

Ebsen has written two books, including an autobiography, "The Other Side of Oz," and "Kelly's Quest."


Ahh! Where are O and A to call him on his death bed. Are they still the last people to have him on the air?
