	Smiley Burnette - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Smiley Burnette (born March 18, 1911 in Summum, Illinois; died February 16, 1967 in Encino, California) was an American singer and songwriter who could play as many as 100 different musical instruments as well as a highly successful comedic actor in western-style films.
		The popularity of Burnette's "Frog Millhouse" character, with his trademark his floppy fl hat, was such that at the same time he would also be cast in nine other films next to another cowboy star, Roy Rogers.
		Smiley Burnette died in 1967 in Encino, California from leukemia and was interred in the Forest Lawn Memorial Park at Hollywood Hills in Los Angeles, California.

		Burnette became successful as a one-man band -- he claimed proficiency on 100 instruments -- and worked in vaudeville before becoming an announcer and performer on radio in Tuscola, IL.
		As an actor, Burnette was one of B Westerns' two "kings of the sidekicks" (the other was George "Gabby" Hayes, who didn't sing).
		Burnette was a successful songwriter, and his music was recorded by the likes of Bing Crosby, Dean Martin, Red Foley, and Ferlin Husky, among others.

		Burnette was under a Term Players Contract at Republic Pictures from July 1, 1936 through June 30, 1944, and his credits at Republic number about 75 films and most are B westerns.
		Burnette was a prolific music author, with some guesstimates as high as 300-400 songs.
		Smiley first appeared in the polls in 1939 and was ranked in one or both for fourteen consecutive years, 1939-1952.

		The culmination of Burnette's popularity came in 1940, when he ranked second only to Autry in a Boxoffice Magazine popularity poll of Western stars, the lone sidekick among the Top Ten.
		Burnette, who would add such classic Western tunes as "Song of the Range" and "Call of the Canyon" to the Autry catalog, refined his naïve, but self-important, Frog Millhouse character through the years at Republic Pictures -- called "Frog," incidentally, from the way his vocals suddenly dropped into the lowest range possible.
		But despite appearing in a total of 56 Durango Westerns, Burnette was never able to achieve the kind of chemistry he had enjoyed with Autry and it was only fitting that they should be reunited for the final six Western features Gene would make.

		Illinois native SMILEY BURNETTE (1911-1967) had never set foot in the West when he wrote his first cowboy song, "The Round-up in Cheyenne," for his friend Gene Autry to record in 1934.
		Smiley, who became the first musical side-kick in Western movies, composed nearly all of the songs for the early Gene Autry movies.
		One WMA historian commented recently, "Smiley would deserve election to the Hall of Fame on the merits of 'Ridin' Down the Canyon,' alone." Of course, he did much more.

		After that, Smiley would depart from Republic forever and Sunset would become the 'main player' that we all knew he was, anyway.
		In each film, Smiley's character was named Frog Millhouse, while Sunset played Sunset, as he would do in all the rest of his westerns.
		The movie ends with Smiley, as Beefsteak, and Sunset slugging it out and finally shooting it out after Sunset identifies the real Frog by the pills he is always taking.

		There are lots of familiar faces in this one, such as Smiley Brunette, Lee Van Atta, Carleton Young (who was Ellery Queen on radio), Francis X. Bushman.
		But part of the charm of this serial comes from the sprinkling of rather bizarre characters such as the clown, the demented scientist, the miner, and of course the principal bad guy, the Lame One.
