An Oklahoma Boy's Dream

I remembered this program on the ABC network, and I was enchanted (for lack of a better word)with the theme song. But I was even more enchanted was those really beautiful and sexy women that appeared right before I had to go to kindergarten! As I was growing up in Oklahoma, so many of us were thinking that those girls from California are really just something. During the 1970's, there was a special (that was syndicated) that was titled Dream Girl, and the host was Ken Howard. I just wondered if there were other specials that was titled Dream Girl. As many of you know, Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity has as their sweetheart the Dream Girl ball.
