    TV actress Melody Patterson, best known for playing Wrangler Jane on “F Troop,” died Thursday at the age of 66. Patterson died in a nursing home after multiple organ failure, according to reports.

    In addition to her starring role on “F Troop” from 1965-1967, Patterson appeared on other television shows of the era including “The Monkees,” “Adam-12” and “Green Acres.” She was also in a handful of episodes of “Hawaii Five-O,” which featured her husband at the time, James MacArthur.

    Patterson also appeared in a few films, landing roles in “The Angry Breed,” “The Cycle Savages” and “Blood and Lace.”

    Patterson’s “F Troop” co-star Larry Storch announced her death via Facebook post, saying, “It’s with a heavy heart that we can let you know our beloved Wrangler Jane, Melody Patterson passed away today. Our hearts are sad today. RIP Sweet Melody. We love you.”

    Freak accident, hit on the head by the nose cone of another car during a caution. There are limits to how safe you can make an open cockpit car.

    I heard some talk that they may start using some kind of canopy to protect the drivers. There is some resistance to this because of the tradition of open cockpit racing but it makes sense. That's 2 drivers in Indy Racing who have been killed in the last 2 years plus I think there have been deaths in Formula One. Nobody has died in NASCAR Sprint Cup racing in 14 years since the death of Dale Earnhardt spurred a lot of changes for the sake of safety including making wearing the HANS device manditory and the SAFER barrier. If Earnhardt had been wearing his HANS he would have survived because it would have prevented his hear from snapping forward with the impact.
