Answers:

1) Huckleberry Hound

2) "The Darktown Strutters Ball"\

3) "White Feller"

4) They became the "Boston Bees." The thinking was the name "Braves" had been responsible for their losing streak. After the first two years of success as the Bees, the team started losing consistently so they returned to being the Braves.
