1912 – June Havoc, actress (The Outer Limits)


June Havoc in The Outer Limits episode Cry of Silence. Not one of the best episodes. The 'bear' as the monsters were called was alien controlled tumbleweed. Eddie Albert finally realizes that he can set them on fire. Not the wisest move on the part of the aliens. They can cross the universe, but they can't choose a tougher foil for the earthlings.
