00:00From Hollywood, it's everybody's game of strategy, knowledge, and fun.
00:07It's Tic-Tac-Doe!
00:09And now, here's our host, Wink Huttendale!
00:21Thank you very much.
00:24Hey, welcome to Tic-Tac-Doe.
00:27We're delighted to have you with us.
00:28Let's meet our current champion right now.
00:31Our current champion, whose winnings total in cash $3,800,
00:36is a high school librarian whose interests include reading and embroidery.
00:40Meet Gail Waterman!
00:42And her opponent is a retired Marine Corps major
00:45who enjoys racquetball and soccer.
00:47And he's the father of seven children.
00:50Meet Wayne Lingenfelter!
00:59Hey, before we talk to both of you,
01:01I want to remind you, in case you missed our last show, everybody,
01:05let me tell you the outcome of our Over 80 Tournament.
01:08The finals were played between Janie McNeely and Dr. Paul Spangler.
01:12Now, Janie won the tournament, the $100,000 cash,
01:16$50,000 for herself and $50,000 for her favorite charity,
01:20St. Elmo's Children's Village.
01:22And because of special circumstances,
01:24Dr. Spangler was also awarded $100,000,
01:28$50,000 for himself,
01:30and $50,000 for his charity,
01:33the American Heart Association.
01:37That's just in case you missed any of that.
01:42Wayne Lingenfelter, right?
01:43Yes, Wayne.
01:44That's close enough, isn't it, Wayne?
01:46We met your seven kids on our last show for a major.
01:48You've got an awful lot of minors out there
01:50taking up the whole first row.
01:52Was it tough having that many in the service?
01:54Only when we transferred, Wayne.
01:56The Marine Corps would come in
01:57and take all the gear out of our house.
01:59Then we would load up all the kids and animals in our car
02:01and take off to wherever we were going next.
02:03You mean besides nine...
02:05Pronounce it for me.
02:06Lingenfelter.
02:07Lingenfelters.
02:07There were animals in a car as well?
02:09Well, one time we traveled with three cats
02:11and another time with our leopard cat.
02:13A leopard?
02:14A leopard.
02:14It was a present that I bought for my wife.
02:17We built a cage for it
02:19and put it in the back of our station wagon,
02:21traveled across the country,
02:22stopping at motels,
02:24sneaking the leopard into motel rooms
02:25so the clerks wouldn't catch us.
02:27It's too easy to spot a leopard, that's for sure.
02:30What...
02:32Too easy to spot a leopard.
02:34You know, I thought that was good.
02:36This is a hostile audience.
02:37Don't pay any attention to them at all.
02:38What became of the leopard?
02:39What came...
02:40Well, the pet store owner told us in 30 days
02:42it'd be just like a house cat,
02:44but I'm here to tell you that's not true.
02:46You know.
02:46And if you want to visit them,
02:48you can go to the Pittsburgh Zoo.
02:49Thanks.
02:50I prefer a tamer game like Tic-Tac-Toe.
02:52We're going to play shortly.
02:53Hello, Gail.
02:54Hello, Wink.
02:55Doggone it.
02:55You've won $3,800 cash of our Tic-Tac-Toe money.
02:59I say doggone it.
03:00I'm delighted for you.
03:01On our last interview, we learned you were married,
03:03but so far no children.
03:04Is that correct?
03:05Yes, I don't have any children,
03:06but with our earnings, we'd like to have a baby.
03:09Would you like a boy or a girl?
03:11Well, I have a four-year-old niece who's very smart,
03:14and she's at home now probably watching us.
03:17And I think I'd like to have a girl just like her.
03:19Tell us about her.
03:20Well, she's so smart.
03:22She knows that George Washington is the first president.
03:25Abraham Lincoln freed the slaves.
03:27Yeah, hold on just a second, Ned.
03:29That's George Washington, first president.
03:33Abraham Lincoln, was it?
03:34Freed the slaves.
03:35Okay, Gwen in New Jersey, let me tell you,
03:37we're going to find out how your aunt's going to do
03:39as we play Tic-Tac-Toe right now.
03:41Good luck to you both.
03:48Here are the subjects we're going to deal with
03:50in this game.
03:51Gail and Wayne, take a look.
03:52Our subjects are situation comedies or sitcoms,
03:56famous sites, games, the Bible,
03:58Who Am I?, science fiction, male singers,
04:01art, and female achievers.
04:03Gail, select, please.
04:04I want to go with Who Am I in the center, please.
04:07All right, it's a two-part question, of course,
04:08worth $300 to the pot, Gail,
04:09and I'll give you some extra time
04:10before you have to give me your answer.
04:12I'm a British director whom the critics
04:15have generously dubbed the master of suspense.
04:18In fact, a scene from my 1960 thriller
04:21which starred Tony Perkins
04:22caused a husband to complain
04:24that his wife was now afraid to take a shower.
04:27My advice, take her to the dry cleaners.
04:30First, Who Am I?,
04:32and secondly, Name My 1960 Thriller.
04:35Think about that for a few seconds, Gail.
04:45All right, Gail, Who Am I?
04:48Hitchcock.
04:49Yes, Alfred Hitchcock.
04:50To put an X in the center box,
04:52Name My 1960 Thriller.
04:54Psycho.
04:54Yes, you got it.
04:55There we go with an X in the center,
04:57$300 and $300 in the pot.
04:58Let's shuffle them all around
05:00and get over to Wayne.
05:02All right, sir.
05:04Let me try science fiction
05:05in the upper left, Wayne, please.
05:07And so be it.
05:07Here's the question.
05:08Wayne, though this author is best known
05:10for science fiction classics
05:12such as The Invisible Man
05:13and The War of the Worlds,
05:15his non-fiction book, Outline of History,
05:17topped the bestseller list.
05:18Name him.
05:23H.G. Wells.
05:25That's right.
05:25Hubert George Wells, H.G. Wells.
05:27Let's move the categories around.
05:29Still $300 in the pot.
05:30Still anybody can win.
05:31Gail?
05:32Well, I know a lot about it.
05:34I'd like to take the Bible, please.
05:36All right, the Bible.
05:37Bottom left on our board.
05:38Gail, here's your question.
05:39According to the Bible,
05:40this food was miraculously provided
05:42for the Israelites
05:43during their flight from Egypt.
05:45It was said to have rained down from heaven.
05:48Name it.
05:49Manna.
05:49Yes, that's right.
05:51Manna from heaven.
05:52Put it next there
05:53and let's shuffle the categories again.
05:55$500 pot, Wayne.
05:58Please, Wayne.
05:59All right, male singers
06:00for a diagonal block, right?
06:01Wayne, here's your question for a block.
06:03This dimpled male singer
06:04has starred on Broadway,
06:06frequently guest-hosted
06:08The Tonight Show,
06:08and co-hosted the hit television series
06:11That's Incredible.
06:12For a block, name him.
06:14Davidson?
06:15Yes, John Davidson.
06:16We put a note there for a block.
06:18$700 on the clock.
06:19We'll be back to our game
06:20of Tic-Tac-Toe
06:21in just a moment.
06:28Every time a player defeats
06:30five opponents,
06:31she or he wins something special.
06:33This lady has defeated
06:34three, two more,
06:35and she's going to win
06:35one of these.
06:36Miss Jay.
06:37Gail, for your driving pleasure,
06:39it's a brand new car!
06:46Later for that,
06:47right now back to the game.
06:48Let's shuffle the categories around.
06:50$700 in the pot.
06:51As we move them around,
06:53we move right back to Miss Waterman.
06:55I'd like to try games, please.
06:58Top center games, all righty,
06:59for another X on that board.
07:00Gail, in this children's game,
07:03lines are drawn on the sidewalk
07:04and the players try to jump
07:06from one square to the other.
07:07Name it.
07:08Hopscotch.
07:09Yeah.
07:09Oh, played hopscotch
07:11at one time or other.
07:12Put her next there.
07:13Let's shuffle again.
07:14$900 in the pot.
07:15Wayne?
07:17Games again, Wayne.
07:18You get the feeling
07:18this girl's trying to beat you, Wayne.
07:20I think she's doing it.
07:20Yeah, I think she'd do that
07:21just like that.
07:22No sympathy.
07:23All right,
07:23you're going to try
07:23to block her now vertically
07:24with the answer to this question.
07:26If you're...
07:27Now, let me change that.
07:28If we were playing this board game,
07:30you might trade in your houses
07:32for a hotel
07:33and place it on Marvin Gardens.
07:35For a vertical block,
07:36name this popular game.
07:37Monopoly.
07:38Monopoly.
07:39Parker Brothers,
07:40great game.
07:41Put an O there.
07:42Four boxes remaining
07:43and another $200 in the pot
07:45takes it up to $900.
07:47Let's shuffle the categories around.
07:49It's an $1,100 pot, obviously.
07:52Gail?
07:53I'd like to go with games again.
07:56All right.
07:57Games, popular category.
07:58In a game of bowling,
08:00there's only one frame
08:01in which the player
08:02is allowed to throw
08:03more than two balls.
08:05Name the frame.
08:06The 10th frame.
08:07You got it.
08:08The 10th frame.
08:09Put an X on that board again.
08:11And $1,300 in the pot.
08:14Ladies and gentlemen,
08:14three boxes remaining.
08:16Anything can still happen.
08:17Let's see what happens
08:18as we shuffle.
08:20Situation comedies,
08:21games,
08:22and who am I, Wayne?
08:23Who am I, please, Wayne?
08:24Who am I?
08:25Bottom right.
08:26Here's the question
08:27for a block, Wayne.
08:28I am a newsman
08:29and I've been with NBC
08:31since 1943.
08:33I had my own
08:34on-the-air journal,
08:35but people know me best
08:36as an anchorman
08:37and remember
08:38when I would end the broadcast
08:39by saying to my partner,
08:42good night, Chet.
08:43Who am I for a block?
08:44Brinkley.
08:45Right.

08:46his partner,
08:47Chet Huntley,
08:47put an O there
08:48and another $200
08:49in the pot.
08:50Okay,
08:51the circle getting
08:51very tight now.
08:52We're down to two boxes
08:53and the categories
08:54that show up
08:54will decide
08:55if we have a win
08:55or a tie.
08:56Let's shuffle.
08:59Famous sites
08:59in the Bible.
09:00Gail?
09:00I'd like to go
09:01with famous sites
09:02for the win, please.
09:04All right, Gail.
09:04If you answer
09:05the question correctly,
09:05you will indeed have a win.
09:07You will pick up
09:07$1,700 in cash.
09:10When added to the cash
09:11you already have won,
09:13and it's all cash,
09:13you've won no prizes yet,
09:15you'd have a total
09:15of $5,500.
09:18Gail, take a look
09:19at this famous site, please.

09:52I don't know
09:52how to say this,
09:53but Gail,
09:53you're getting closer
09:54and closer to that baby
09:55all the time
09:55with every win.
09:56You have won $5,500

10:00You have the chance
10:00to beat the dragon again.
10:02Sorry.

10:04against the monster yet,
10:05have you?
10:05No, I want to beat him
10:06this time, though.
10:07All right, this is going
10:07to be the time.
10:08Think positively.
10:10Well, Wayne,
10:11you got a few kids
10:12out there,
10:12and we wanted to put
10:14some money in your pocket
10:15to help feed that great group
10:17out there in the front row,
10:18but it just didn't work out
10:19that way, did it?
10:20It was fun.

13:43as to the first three numbers
13:44she picks
13:45and she's not going to ask

13:47How did you have
13:48your mind made up?
13:49My dad called me
13:50from Florida

14:18You're right.
14:19You want to thank your dad

14:21Thanks, dad.
14:22I love you.
14:22Oh, that's great.
14:23Let's look at the rest
14:24of the board.
14:26Where did you think
14:27the dragon was located
