LINCOLN IMITATOR ON 'DREW CAREY'

Charles Brame, an Abraham Lincoln look-alike and former Cape Girardeau resident, will portray Honest Abe in an episode of the "Drew Carey Show" to be broadcast at 8 p.m. Wednesday on the ABC network.

Brame has been portraying Lincoln for many years and recently presented programs on the president at the Smithsonian National Museum of American History in Washington, D.C.

He has played Lincoln on numerous TV shows but also has turned down auditions for shows that made fun of Lincoln.
