Changes

In "Swimming Problem," McNutley becomes the substitute coach of the Lynnhaven swimming team. He finds that the star swimmer is frustrated with her boyfriend, and Ray and Peggy team up as matchmakers to restore the girl's morale. In "Ray's Promotion," the professor is named dean to replace Miss Josephine Bradley, portrayed by Minerva Urecal (1894-1966), but his conscience causes him to work to reinstate Miss Bradley, knowing that his promotion will be lost in the process. In "Back in Uniform," Ray balks when the dean asks him to change a student's grade and threatens to quit if his moral stance is undermined. He also makes plans to attend a reunion of his old [[United States Army|Army]] regiment. When Miss Bradley sees Ray having the uniform cleaned, she incorrectly assumes that he is rejoining the military.<ref name=ctva/>

In "Retirement Deferred" Milland challenges the law at the time of compulsory retirement at the age of sixty-five, when one of the university's most beloved professors, portrayed by Henry Hull, must retire. McNulty organizes a movement to prevent the professor from having to step down before he is ready. In the episode "The Prodigy," David Stollery, later of [[Walt Disney]]'s radio and television serial, ''The Adventures of Spin and Marty'' (in the role of Marty), appears as Peggy's cousin who enrolls at Comstock as a pre-teen. Ray finds the boy obnoxious; Disney viewed the program and hires young Stollery for his most remembered role.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://legends.disney.go.com/legends/detail?key=David+Stollery|title=David Stollery (2006)|publisher=legends.disney.go.com|accessdate=September 25, 2009}}</ref>
