A VERY YOUNG, VERY HOT . . . (1/5 - 1/11)

For those of you who are perplexed by last week's "Very Young, Very Hot" actor, the answer is Mr. Robert Wagner, known as "R.J." to those closest to the actor. Yes, back in the day, well before television's Hart to Hart, Wagner was quite the catch.

This week's edition features a man who has made a career of Weather and Birthdays. If that's not enough of a clue, I don't know what is. Back in the '50s, however, this Virginian was a radio DJ, and he appeared on Barn Party, a children's television show. Back then (as evidenced by the picture above) he was quite young and hot, gap in the teeth and all! Who is he?
