  • Howdy All,
    I was watching McLintock tonight and I saw Jim Burk in a few of the scenes. I think he was in a lot of Duke's films and could be counted as a member of the John Wayne Stock Company. You may remember him as Trooper in Big Jake. I was just wondering though, whatever happened to him? Anybody know or have any ideas?
