That is correct. Sheldon Leonard not only made a career of portraying gangsters and bookies...but also was responsible for such shows as The Dick Van Dyke Show, Make Room For Daddy, The Mothers-In-Laws, I Spy, Andy Griffith Show, Gomer Pyle USMC, and a few others.
He lent his voice to the animated pitchlion for the cereal which spawned a cartoon series which also featured Carl Reiner as one of the characters.
@Divvadoll - I thought I was the only one that remember that little ditty about the pink elephants from the 60's. Glad to know I wasn't on LSD at 3 years old after all since you remember the song too...lol

Seems so strange after all these years, to hear that they're coated with "sugar".
