Correct!
Ethel Merman portrayed the villainess Lola Lasagna during the truly bizarre Season 3 of the Batman TV series.

Tralfaz: Ethel and Yvonne

The Penguin: I knew you when you'd steal the braces from other kids teeth.
Lola Lasagna: While you stole their teeth!

I love the Old Hollywood glam shots of Barbara Rush, such a throwback.  While swiping through her photos, her face seemed familiar, but I couldn't remember where I saw her until I saw The Young Philadelphians stills.  Wow, I saw that movie more than 3 decades ago, but it must be true that you never forget a face.

PS:  the old Batman series was a gold mine for lovers of camp.
