Popeye's Clubhouse was a WCCO-TV show that ran for a number of years, and went through a succession of hosts. The first was well-remembered pitchman Mel Jass, who left WCCO-TV for WTCN-TV in 1957. With Mel gone, command of Popeye's Clubhouse passed to Dale Woodley, shown above on the set with the day's Peanut Gallery in the background. In 1959, yet another host took over: Jack Hastings, who earlier had been cowboy character Johnny .44!
