his name was the same in both J & E 1963

Unless I am mistaken Heck Ben is the only actor/character whose name was unchanged by the English Editors. I refer to the 50th Episode, Astro Boy Goes to the West, which was titled "westward, Ha!" by the English team. TOW: Heck Ben. Note that he does appear in other episodes that were thranslated into English, & his name may have been changed in those.
