"Man of the People" Tv series Starring James Garner

Here a Triva Question : Name a Pool Player who gave James Garner instuction?

Hint: His initial are D.J.
 
James Garner was the best pool player in Norman, Oklahoma as a kid growing up there. When I went to school there in the 60's, I used to play with his brother at Campus Cue. He drove a beverage truck and would make a delivery there, and take a few minutes to hit balls with me. He played okay too, but his brother Jim was much better.
 
There was an article in American Airline Magazine late '60 where Fats stated James Garner was better than Jackie Gleason, if not the Movie Star Pool Player.

First Name of Pool Player who gave James Garner [James Baumgarner] instuction: Dick J.

I actually just sat through that clip. That show was shockingly bad. A show about a pubic official who is corrupt as it's premiss, and it is a comedy can you imagine. And of course, he plays pool.
