A few more for Hawkins Falls.

 

From NBC press release, Nov. 1951, Jack Bivans plays Mike Pargin, who returns to Hawkins Falls after his business fails.

 

From NBC press release, Mar. 1955, mentions that Pat O’Neal plays Perry Hyden.  I’m guessing this is the man little Nellie was with when Lona met her.

 

From April 1954, Minneapolis Star, Rupert LaBelle has just finished a run on a Hawkins Falls.
