I did some research and found that Clint played Roddy Yates when he played on Wagon Train. I don't know why I thought he was Rowdy Faber. It's funny how time can warp your childhood memories.
Don’t know about Wagon Train but he played Rowdy on Rawhide.
Rowdy Yates was the ramrod on “Rawhide.” Gil Faver was the trail boss. I am a child of the 50’s and 60’s.
Because Eric Fleming played the trail boss, whose name was Gil Favor...
Because Eric Fleming played the trail boss -- on Rawhide (not Wagon Train) -- whose name was Gil Favor...
You can watch Clint Eastwood play the part of Rowdy Yates and Eric Fleming play the part of Gil Favor in Rawhide by searching for “Rawhide” on YouTube. We’ve been enjoying catching up on some Rawhide shows missed when they aired 1959-1966. We were also watching James Garner and Jack Kelly in Maverick last week, but they were just taken down for copyright violations.
