The last three were made for Columbia Pictures.
In 1947, he made The Sea Hound, and, in 1950, Pirates of the High Seas.
His last serial was King of the Congo in 1952.
"Billy" westerns
Between 1941 and 1946, Crabbe starred in a series of westerns for Producers Releasing Corporation (PRC).
He played a crime-fighting cowboy called Billy the Kid.
Billy was not based on the real life outlaw of the American Old West, but the character's name was changed to Billy Carson to avoid confusion.
Crabbe had signed with PRC for only two movies, but those two movies were hugely popular so the studio continued the series.
These PRC westerns took 10–12 days to make, and cost about $25,000 each.
They were 50–60 minutes long, and were the second features on double bills.
Crabbe made about eight of these westerns every year.
He had time to make other movies during the year, too.
He made jungle pictures and crime movies.
When World War II started, PRC had to make budget cuts.
The shooting schedules for the "Billy" westerns were cut back from 10–12 days to 7–8 days.
There was no time or money to correct mistakes.
In one scene, for example, Crabbe bumps his head on a window frame as he jumps through the window.
There was no time or money to reshoot the scene; it had to be left as it was.
Crabbe did not serve in the military during World War II because he was 34 years old and had a family.
Instead, he made training movies for the Field Artillery.
He kept making westerns for PRC during the war.
In 1942 and 1943, he made 15 westerns.
Crabbe's PRC contract ran out in 1946.
He had made 36 "Billy" westerns for PRC.
Last movies
Crabbe made five movie westerns between 1957 and 1965.
None of these movies was special in any way.
In 1970, he played an old cowboy in The Comeback Trail.
The movie did not do well.
Crabbe said it was the best movie he ever made, but there were too many sexy scenes so families stayed away.
He tried to convince the producers to make the movie more family-friendly by cutting the "heavy" scenes, but they refused.
His last movies were Swim Team in 1979 and The Alien Dead in 1980.
The Aqua Parade
During the summer months through the years he made the "Billy" movies, Crabbe kept swimming and also did water shows.
About 1946, he put his savings into his own show.
He called it, The Aqua Parade.
He said his two-hour show was a "labor of love" as well as a "profitable occupation".
In 1947, his show played in cities and state fairs across the United States over a five-month period.
The show got good reviews.
Crabbe was in the water ballet and in a part of the show called "The Evolution of Swimming".
In 1950, the show went to Europe.
It had problems.
The company was asked to make new costumes and scenery for the Paris show.
Crabbe knew this would cost a lot of money, but everyone in the show agreed that doing this would be better than going back to America.
The show met more problems in Italy.
The company had to swim in cold water in Milan because there was no time to heat the pool.
Additionally, the show lost money because it played in a small arena with limited seating.
In the end, Crabbe was $100,000 in debt and went back to America wondering what he was going to do.
He started doing television.
The Buster Crabbe Show
Crabbe moved to the East Coast of the United States to be the host of a live, local New York City children's program called, The Buster Crabbe Show.
The series was televised on weekday evenings starting on March 12, 1951.
The series setting was a western bunkhouse.
Old western movies, serials, and comedies were shown.
Crabbe shared games, stories, and other activities with the program's viewers.
Although the program's title was changed to Buster's Buddies, it was cancelled on October 3, 1952.
It returned to television on  September 21, 1953.
A live kiddie audience was brought to the program, but the program was not popular.
It was cancelled again on March 26, 1954.
Crabbe played Michael Gallant in the NBC adventure television series, Captain Gallant of the Foreign Legion.
The series was televised from 1955 to 1957.
It is set in modern Morocco where Captain Gallant was in charge of an outpost in the desert.
He fought thieves, desert tribes, and other villains.
Crabbe's son Cullen played Cuffy Sanders in the series.
Cuffy was an orphan boy whose father had died in action with the Legion.
The Crabbes had signed a contract for three 30-minute episodes.
These three episodes could be changed into a 90-minute movie for theaters if the television series failed.
The three episodes were a success.
The H. J. Heinz Company agreed to sponsor the series.
Thirty-six 30-minute episodes were made.
Crabbe was paid $1,000 per episode.
Working on the series would take most of his time.
He dropped his New York City television series, The Buster Crabbe Show, so he could make Captain Gallant.
The series started filming in April 1954.
Crabbe's old friend Fuzzy Knight joined the cast.
Outdoor scenes were filmed in North Africa.
Indoor scenes were shot in Paris and Rome.
The series stopped filming in October 1954.
It had its television premiere on February 13, 1955.
Children and long-time Crabbe fans loved the series.
A fan club for Cuffy was started.
Charlton Comics published four comic books based on the series in 1955 and 1956.
Tragedy struck the Crabbe family in 1957.
When Crabbe's daughter "Sande" was a 20-year-old college student at USC, she had an obsession with dieting.
She thought she needed to be as thin as possible for boys to be attracted to her.
Her parents were worried.
They got medical treatment for Sande and psychoanalysis, but she died April 10, 1957 of malnutrition.
She weighed .
In all, there were sixty-five 30-minute black and white episodes.
The series completed its first television run in February 1957.
Reruns were televised between 1960 and 1963.
Cullen Crabbe dropped acting when the series ended.
In 1970, he said the only reason he played in the series was because no one could find a boy whose parents would let him live and work in North Africa for two years.
Last television appearances
Crabbe was on television now and then after Captain Gallant.
He was in an episode of the Ellery Queen series in 1959, and co-hosted a 1961 NBC Easter television special with Rosemary Clooney called Marineland Circus.
In December 1965, CBS televised ceremonies at the Swimming Hall of Fame in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
Crabbe was there because he was going to become a member of the Hall of Fame.
Crabbe was in two episodes of the Buck Rogers in the 25th Century television series in 1979, and one episode of B. J. and the Bear in 1981.
This episode was the last time he was on television.
Business interests
Crabbe was bankrupt after the disaster of his The Aqua Parade.
He looked about for ways to make money and to pay off his debts.
His name was used to promote a New York health club, and he hosted a women's exercise television program, Figure Fashioning.
He was swim director at a hotel in the Catskill Mountains.
In 1952, he moved his family to New Jersey and taught swimming at Palisades Amusement Park.
The same year, he made his "live" television debut on Philco Playhouse and then made his ninth and last movie serial, King of the Congo.
In 1966, Crabbe passed an exam to become a New York City stockbroker with the Wall Street firm of Lieberbaum, Richter & Co. He led the annual Red Cross swim sessions at the Durland Scout Center in Rye, New York, and in 1969 continued his association with the Concord Hotel as Director of Water Activities.
He also had two camps in the Adirondacks: a summer camp for young boys and a co-educational water camp for teenagers.
He kept up with his work for Cascade Pools.
In 1970, he wrote Energistics, an exercise book for old people.
Crabbe died of a heart attack in Scottsdale, Arizona at the age of 75.
He was soon buried at the Green Acres Memorial Park  in Scottsdale, Arizona.
Crabbe was the only actor to play the three greatest pulp fiction heroes of the 1930s  Flash Gordon, Buck Rogers, and Tarzan.
His early fame was renewed when nostalgia-minded television viewers discovered his Flash Gordon serials in the 1970s.
In 2013, the three Flash Gordon serials, the Buck Rogers serial, and the Tarzan serial were all available on DVD.
In 1973, a poll on the University of Maryland campus revealed that the Flash Gordon serials were third on the student nostalgia charts.
He was behind W. C. Fields and the Marx Brothers.
The serials were shown on college campuses and on nationwide television channels.
The New York City Public Broadcasting channel leased the serials, and televised them during the 7 p.m. news programs of other channels.
The nationwide interest in the serials led to Crabbe being invited to make personal appearances in many places and to give talks on college campuses.
On his acting talent, Crabbe once said, "Some of my acting rose to the level of incompetence, and then leveled off.
I was a lot better actor than people gave me credit for.
I didn't have any training, but I feel that if I had been given the chance, I could have become a really good, top-rate actor."
At another time he said, "I always wished I could have been in one really good film.
But they decide you're a guy who can fall off a horse and take a breakaway table over you're head, and there's nothing you can do about it ... Many fans have told me they saw in my portrayals a moralistic mien, something they could identify with or fantasize about as children.
There's a place for hero worship in any society.
It gives people something to look up to, even if no real hero can ever live up to the image people have of them."

Our Lady of China is a title for the Virgin Mary in China who is believed to have appear at the small village of Donglu in 1900.
In Chinese she is called Zhōnghuá Shèngmǔ ().
She is also known as Our Lady of Donglu.
During the Boxer Rebellion, about 10,000 soldiers attacked the small village of Donglu on April, 1900.
The soldiers tried to kill the approximately 1,000 Christians.
As the soldiers were attacking, the Virgin Mary appeared wearing a white robe in the sky.
When the soldiers saw the apparition, they fired gunshots at the Virgin Mary.
Despite the efforts to shoot down the apparition, the Virgin Mary continued to shine brightly.
As the soldiers kept firing, another apparition appeared: a majestic angel, whom witnesses believed to be the Archangel Michael.
The angel flew down surrounded by blazing flames of fire down from the sky and into the crowd of soldiers.
By himself, Michael drove all of the soldiers out of the village.
Villagers learned afterwards that their local priest, Father Wu, prayed to the Virgin Mary for help from the soldiers attacking.
The residents of Donglu then built a church for the Virgin Mary to express their gratitude for the help they received.
The Church was then destroyed during World War II after it was hit by Japanese bombs.
The 1995 apparition
The Catholic Church built a shrine in 1992 to commemorate the 1900 apparition events and organized a large celebratory worship service nearby in an open field on May 23, 1995, which about 30,000 people attended.
During the opening prayer, those present saw the sun moved from to right to left in the sky and shone down light of rays with different colors.
Then the Virgin Mary holding the infant Jesus, appeared in the sky.
Mary did not speak but witnesses (Chinese Christians whose faith was oppressed by the government) reported feeling comforted and encouraged by her appearance.
The overwhelming public interest of visiting the shrine after the apparition took place upset the Chinese government.
The Chinese government then banned people from going to the shrine but still many pilgrims came.
Proving it was unsuccessful, the Chinese army destroyed the Donglu shrine. (
But many shrines dedicated to Our Lady of China are still in China and other countries.)
Francis Cooke (ca.
1583 - April 7, 1663) was a passenger on the Mayflower.
He was a signer of the Mayflower Compact and was an important member of Plymouth Colony.
Cooke married Hester Mahieu at the French Walloon Church in Leiden.
In August 1606 Francis Cooke and his wife moved to Norwich in county Norfolk in England.
They did not live there long and returned to Netherlands.
Their son John was baptized at the Walloon Church in Leiden in 1607.
When the English Separatist Church members in Leiden decided to go to America in 1620, Cooke decided he would go with them.
He brought his thirteen year–old son, John, with him.
Cooke's wife and the younger children stayed in Leiden and came to Plymouth Colony on the ship Anne in July 1623.
The Mayflower left Plymouth, England on 6 September 1620.
Cooke was one of the signers.
In Plymouth Colony, the settlers were given land.
In that Division of Land in 1623, Cooke received two acres, one for himself and one acre for his son John.
He also received 4 acres for his wife and children who came over on the ship called Anne in 1623.
In 1640/41 Cooke was one of twelve men tasked by the court to make official travel routes, and make a formal survey and mark the boundaries of plots of land and for the Jones River.
In 1645 he was again road surveyor for Plymouth.
In June 1650, when he was almost seventy, he was still doing survey work.
In August 1659, in his late 70s, he was again called upon by the Plymouth Court to help to decide a land boundary dispute between Thomas Pope and William Shurtliff.
Cooke also did other public service work, being on several petty and grand juries.
He also served on civil case juries up to March 1643.
Most of the civil case involved debts or slander.
He was also on grand juries in 1638, 1640, 1642 and 1643 which involved more serious crimes.
On December 7, 1659 Francis Cooke made out his will, saying he was weak in body.
The will was very simple and he gave everything to Hester, his loving wife.
Pandeism is the belief that a higher being like a God made the Universe, but made it by becoming it.
People who follow Pandeism are called Pandeists.
After making the Universe, God and the Universe are equivalent (the same thing.)
Because God is now the Universe, it can not do things in the Universe.
Pandeists believe that people who want to know about God should rely on logic and reason and not traditions of their religion.
Pandeists believe that everything that exists is a part of God or that God is a part of everything that exists.
The name Pandeism comes from the words Deism (a kind of belief in God) and pan (all).
Pandeists believe that a higher power became the world.
They do not believe that the creation of the Universe happened because of a spontaneous event.
They reject supernatural events like miracles and believe that God has become the natural laws as well, and does not need to interfere with them.
Pandeists also see holy books, such as the Bible and Qur'an, as writings made by people rather than the writings of God.
Pandeists believe that people are part of God too, and so some people think they see or hear God, when they are really only seeing or hearing the part of God that is in them.

The series is about a captain in the French Foreign Legion who fights bandits in North Africa.
20th-century philosophy covers thinkers who wrote and produced ideas in philosophy during the twentieth century.
New ways of thinking about problems were put forward following the success of science and advances in mathematics and other areas of study.
Philosophy after 1900 became more professionalized.
Philosophers gradually split between two main kinds of philosophy:
Analytic philosophy, which became popular in English-speaking countries.
This kind of philosophy concentrates on clarifying thoughts with logic.
Analytic philosophers try to work along with natural sciences (such as mathematics), since they say natural sciences are the most accurate way of understanding the world.
Continental philosophy, which was developed by philosophers on mainland Europe.
This kind includes movements such as German idealism and French feminism.
Continental philosophers say that in order to deal with a problem, they have to understand other things about the problem, such as the historical period and local culture the problem occurred in.

Planetary science (or planetology) is the organized study of planets, which are relatively large, stable bodies in orbits around stars.
The planet best known to us is the Earth.
There are seven other major planets in the Solar System.
The Solar System also has dwarf planets, such as Pluto and Ceres, the largest asteroid.
Space probes have gone near or landed on all planets in our solar system.
In recent decades better telescopes have found planets in solar systems other than our own, which are known as exoplanets.
One of the first was a planet found to be orbiting Barnard's star.
Planetary science is a part of astronomy and geology.
It is sometimes referred to as planetary geology.
Planetary science in a broad sense includes finding a planet's orbital period and orbital distance from its star, the mineral makeup of the planet, and an attempt to learn its age.
It may also have a more narrow focus, such as the mapping of the planet's surface features and the makeup of its atmosphere.

Marquess (marquis in French) is a title of nobility in many countries in Europe.
It is  a rank higher than an earl but lower than a duke. '
Marquis' is correct in France, and 'Margrave' in Germany for a local ruler.
This title was usually granted by a monarch to reward a subject for longtime faithful service or some very notable deeds.
The title is hereditary, meaning that is passes from a father to his eldest son.
Usually if a man holding this title dies without having any male heirs, the title is said to become extinct, meaning that it is no longer held by anyone living.
The female equivalent of this title may be styled marquess.
This rank may be held by the wife of a marquis or granted to a woman in her own right.

In 1947, Andy Dufresne is convicted of murdering his wife and her lover and is sentenced to two consecutive life terms in prison.
Andy is transferred to the Shawshank Stage Penitentiary, where he is introduced to Samuel L. Norton, warden of the prison, alongside with Byron Hadley, chief captain of the guards.
As his sentence unfolds, he meets Ellis Boyd Redding, an inmate also serving a life sentence.
Andy is assigned to work in the prison's laundromat, and around the same time, he has various encounters with Bogs Diamond and his henchmen known as "The Sisters", who attack Andy during their encounters.
In 1949, Hadley is explaining that he is being taxed on an inheritance, and Andy offers to help him legal shelter some money to avoid penalization by the IRS.
Bogs and his henchmen attack Andy again, forcing him to the infirmary for a month.
Hadley savagely beats Bogs in retribution, paralyzing him and transferring him to a prison hospital upstate.
Andy is assigned to help out elderly inmate Brooks Halten in the prison's library, where he helps resolve financial matters by writing weekly letters to the state legislature requesting funds.
In 1954, Brooks is paroled after serving fifty years, but he cannot adjust to the outside world, and commits suicide by hanging himself.
The legislature Andy receives is a copy of The Marriage of Figaro.
He plays the music over the P.A. system, much to the warden's resentment, and is sentenced to solitary confinement for two weeks.

Andy turns this information in to Norton, but when he considers the warden obtuse and mentions about the money laundering, Norton has Andy sentenced to solitary confinement again.
Norton summons Tommy outside one night to feign an escape attempt and orders Hadley shoot him to death as a show of execution.
Norton visits Andy in his solitary cell to explain about Tommy's execution, and intends to seal off the library, remove Andy's protection from the guards, and move him to worse conditions in the area of the most hardened criminals.
Andy opposes, and is given another month in solitary.
After two months in solitary, Andy discusses his plans with Ellis about moving to a Mexican coastal town if he ever escapes prison.
During the next roll call, the guards find Andy's cell vacant, prompting them to sound the alarm for Norton, who demands an explanation of Andy's whereabouts.
Irate and paranoid, Norton hurls some rocks, which one of them rips a poster, finding a big hole in the wall.
A flashback shows Andy using rope to escape through the tunnel and a sewage pipe, taking Norton's suit, shoes, and ledger, containing proof of the money laundering.
After his escape, Andy poses as Randall Stephens, withdraws the laundered money from several banks, and mails the ledger and other evidence of the corruption and murders at Shawshank to a local newspaper.
FBI agents and state police storm Shawshank and arrest Hadley, while Norton dies from a self-inflicted gunshot wound to avoid his arrest.
After forty years, Ellis is paroled.
He visits a hayfield in Maine and finds a mysterious tree in the wilderness.
