Hard-hitting railroad president Norman Curtis (Roy Roberts) arrives in Hooterville with plans to shut down the beloved Cannonball train. However, his no-nonsense attitude begins to soften when he experiences the warmth and hospitality of Kate Bradley (Bea Benaderet) at the Shady Rest Hotel. This charming story of country hospitality winning over corporate hardness makes “The President Who Came To Dinner” a classic episode of Petticoat Junction.
