TELE-FOLKS DIRECTORY - SENATOR CRESTON COLLINS



'THE NAME OF THE GAME'
"THE INQUIRY"


The power and influence of Senator Creston Collins began to diminish in January of 1969 when his behavior on the Senate committee vetting Glenn Howard for an important post in the government was seen for what it truly was - a hateful attempt to tarnish Glenn Howard's reputation and integrity.

It was never stated in the episode, but I believe Senator Collins represented the good people of Maine.  (And there's just something about him that gives off that G.O.P. feel.)  A first name of "Creston" smacks of old money and a distinguished lineage that could probably be traced back to the Mayflower.

COLLINWOOD
The Collins Family of Maine has deep roots, especially in the seaside community of their ancestral home, Collinsport.  For the most part, members of the Collins family have been pillars of society.  But it was not always so.

How could it be, when the family can count witches, warlocks, ghosts, zombies, a werewolf and at least one vampire among the ranks?
