Does anybody remember '70s TV comedian Nick Hitler?

I recall seeing a comedian on TV, in the 70's, that went by the stage name of 'Nick Hitler' but cannot find anything on the web. Anyone heard of him?

There was a "Vic Hitler" character on Hill Street Blues who was a comedian. He couldn't understand why he wasn't very successful, IIRC. Could that be it?

Bing Hitler was Craig Ferguson's stage name for a while, but that was more mid-late '80s than '70s.

The Vic Hitler character (only in a few epsiodes, IIR)was not only a bad comedian, but also a narcoleptic given to falling asleep on stage.
