She was so easily recognizeable in most of the other pics I found. One of them showed her with Frankie Avalon as if she was in one of those beach movies he did.

Correct!! Smiley Burnett it is. Known as Charley Pratt on the show. Green Acres and Petticoat Junction are the best shows ever Rusty!!
I remember seeing Smiley Burnett on a show called Country Music Jubilee every Saturday night. My Dad liked the show and besides, it was the only English speaking TV station we could receive at that time. 1957.

Danang Sailor

Okay, you got Linda Evans ... but who is the dude in this old surf movie?
Danang Sailor
nullius in verba
Nope - right movie series, wrong actor. Lembeck played biker gang leader Von Zipper.
This actor's father is most remembered for his roles in westerns, although he was a
smash as a foreign correspondent.
That's a tough one!
Danang Sailor
nullius in verba
Nope. He and his father starred in a little-remembered 1959 TV western called "Wichita Town".

(And stop thinking about dad.)

Okay Popeye..
That's Jody McCrea (Joel Jr) with Linda Evans..
Beach Blanket Bingo.

DING-DING-DING-DING-DING!! We have a Winner!!!
His birth name was Joel Dee McRae, named for both his father (Joel McRae) and mother (Frances Dee). When he went into
acting he combined the two to become "Jody" in an attempt (futile, I'm afraid) to avoid being confused and identified
with his dad.
But no, he was not a Junior.
