00:00Queen, it's the Jokers Wild!
00:03And now, here's the host of the show, Bill Cullen!
00:08Oh, wow!
00:11Oh, good, good, good!
00:13Thank you!
00:17How nice you are, thank you!
00:19That makes even, I've been around a long time, but that makes me feel fine.
00:22Thank you for the nice welcome, and thank you for joining us at Jokers Wild.
00:26Actually, we have something pretty exciting going on right now.
00:28We have a couple of very fine players, and one of them, I'll tell you more in detail later which one and everything,
00:35is only one win, a few dollars away, from winning her fifth consecutive game.
00:40A lot of money, and that car that goes with winning the fifth game.
00:43So that's what we have in store for you.
00:44Charlie, who are our players?
00:46Bill, first hour challenger, originally from Latchie, Washington.
00:49She's an executive assistant who enjoys sports and cooking, Deborah Crump!
00:54And our current champion, she's a condo wife,
00:57whose interest includes singing and weightlifting,
00:59whose winning total in cash and prizes $7,025,
01:03Deborah Zuhl!
01:10Well, there they are.
01:11And just by luck, we have an important game like this,
01:13and I have two players who both have the first name,
01:16Deborah and Deborah.
01:16Deborah, I'll try to keep you straight.
01:18Deborah, to your right, wearing the nice blue dress,
01:21is our champion.
01:22Welcome back, Deborah.
01:23Thank you, Bill.
01:24Oh, it's good to have you.
01:25Does your husband know about your winnings yet?
01:27You've been here now two days or something.
01:29Have you told him?
01:30No.
01:30Good.
01:31Don't tell him.
01:31She keeps going on.
01:32She wants to surprise him.
01:33Is that the idea?
01:34He'll be very surprised.
01:35Yes, he'll be very surprised when he sees this on the air
01:38and realizes you never told him about it.
01:40Anyway, Deborah so far has won four games.
01:44She has collected $7,025, and she's playing for the card.
01:50And let me say that this present game is a tie score,
01:57and our other Deborah, that is Deborah Crump,
02:00has $450, and she's here to see what she can do
02:03about winning that championship.
02:04Right, Deborah?
02:05Right, right.
02:05Tell everybody where you're from.
02:07I'm from Wenatchee, Washington.
02:08Wenatchee, Washington, the apple capital of the world.
02:10Right, it's about three hours from Seattle.
02:12All right, we know a little bit about both of you.
02:14We have a 450 to 450 score.
02:17You're going to pick up right where we left off last time,
02:20and let me get out of the way, and we show you the categories.
02:23Still playing with the ones we started with,
02:25Where Am I?, Solar System, Broadway Musicals,
02:29Jim's and Jimmys, and finally Fact or Photo,
02:32where you decide whether you want to see a photo or hear a fact.
02:36For Deborah, Deborah Zuhl, our champion,
02:39she's trying for her fifth consecutive game,
02:42so an automobile, a car, is at stake.
02:45Well, ladies, good luck to both of you.
02:47Well, I'll play it as fair as I possibly can.
02:50And Deborah Crump, you get first spin.
02:52It's tie at this moment.
02:53Spin and good luck.
02:54Okay, let's go, Jokers.
02:55And you got Fact or Photo, Where Am I?, and another Fact or Photo.
03:00All right, what do you want to do now, Deborah?
03:02Okay, I'll take Fact or Photo for $100.
03:04Okay, and if you answer this one correctly,
03:06that'll be $550 and enough for a possible win.
03:10Miss it, as you know, and the other Deborah gets a shot at it.
03:14The answer to this Fact or Photo question
03:16is the name of an American state.
03:18Would you like to hear the facts or see the photo?
03:22See the photo.
03:23You want to see the photo?
03:24Let me move aside.
03:26There is the photo.
03:27You're going now for $100 more and a possible win.
03:31Look at the picture,
03:32and now name the American state represented by this flag.
03:37Pennsylvania?
03:38No.
03:39Uh-oh.
03:40Now, look what's up.
03:40Look what's up now.
03:41That's a wrong answer.
03:43And now, Deborah, our champion,
03:45you're going to get a chance.
03:46Before I tell you your chance, let me say,
03:48you're $50 away from a win.
03:50This is the game to bring you the car plus the winnings,
03:54a total of $13,275 riding on this.
03:59And I read you the fact because that's part of the penalty.
04:03Here we go.
04:04This is for the car, for the money, for the game,
04:08and over $13,000.
04:10Here are three clues to that same American state.
04:13One, home of Rice University.
04:15Two, the city of Brownsville.
04:18Three, in 1836, this state became an independent republic.
04:25For the car, the game, $13,275.
04:30Name the state.
04:32Texas?
04:33You have it all!
04:35There she is.
04:50Miss America.
04:51Miss America.
04:56By golly, if I were Burt Clarks, I'd burst into,
04:59there she is, Miss America, because of that win.
05:01You really, with that one answer, of course,
05:04Deborah Crump missed that one.
05:06We pass it along to you, adding the fact that's the rule.
05:09And in that one, you've got the game, the car, $13,275.
05:15Boy, that is a big win.
05:18A big, big win.
05:19Now, Charlie O'Donnell, if you would,
05:23would you tell Deborah a little bit about the car she just won?
05:26Deborah, it's a brand-new car!
05:29For your driving pleasure, it's a Mazda GLC.
05:33Compliments of the Joker's Wild.
05:35There you go.
05:36It's all yours.
05:38That was it.
05:40That was a really big win.
05:43Well, Deborah Crump from Wenatchee, Washington,
05:45you did a marvelous job,
05:47and you were up there with an opportunity,
05:49possibly had you gotten that state,
05:50to take the game.
05:51But we do thank you, Deborah.
05:53We have some nice consolation prizes,
05:54and you've been very nice.
05:56Thank you very much.
05:59Well, Deborah Zuhl, the rich lady,
06:02and I will be back with you after an easy word.
06:10Since this is my second season,
06:13and the ninth season, Alan, am I not correct?
06:15The ninth season for Joker's Wild,
06:16but this season, that's the biggest win yet.
06:19You really are moving along.
06:20You're still, of course, champion, no matter what happens,
06:22and you continue to defend that championship.
06:25But it's awfully nice with $13,275 going into it, isn't it?
06:30You know what's ahead?
06:31Yeah.
06:33You seem awfully pleased.
06:35You seem a little frightened.
06:36Come on over.
06:37Okay.
06:37I'm going to give you a chance to play against the devil.
06:40Now, this time, you've got to do it.
06:46I keep telling Deborah anywhere along the lines here against the devil
06:50if she wants to stop, she may and take the money.
06:52So far, you haven't listened to me.
06:54That's true.
06:55You've gone the full time, but it's paid off for you.
06:57You beat him once.
06:58Well, look at the winnings, $13,275.
07:00That's awfully good.
07:01Now, for the record, you may quit any time
07:04and take the money up to that point
07:05if you think the devil's coming.
07:06But, Deborah, as you know, because you did it once already,
07:09if you get all the way through without seeing the devil,
07:11you get the $1,000 or maybe a little more,
07:13plus this prize.
07:15Well, Deborah, these fine gifts
07:16will establish a tradition of elegance in your life.
07:18First, Deborah, you'll awake each morning
07:20on this classic brass bed.
07:22Buy Drescher this beautiful, genuine brass bed design,
07:25beautifully at home in any setting.
07:26It's that special look of elegance only Drescher gives you.
07:29Then you'll be surrounded by the opulence
07:31of plush satin sheets.
07:33From Whisper Soft Mills, luxurious super satin bedding,
07:36designed for comfort and elegance.
07:38For a new dimension in sleep experience,
07:40cover your bed with super satin
07:41from Whisper Soft Mills.
07:43Next, your windows will display
07:45the look of these sumptuous draperies.
07:47Seville, from Burlington House Draperies.
07:50Elegant draperies in a variety of colors
07:52with matching balance, tie racks,
07:54and coordinating balloon shades
07:55made better in America by Burlington.
07:58And finally, Deborah, here's a gift
07:59that you'll treasure as an heirloom in years to come.
08:02This exquisite golden diamond watch.
08:06This Jules Jergensen's ladies' watch
08:08is designed in 14-carat gold
08:10with braided 14-carat gold bracelets.
08:12Decorative two-tone dials set with one diamond,

08:16This tradition of elegance package
08:18is worth in cash and prizes
08:19exactly $3,950.
08:23That would bring you up to over $17,000.
08:27Boy, are you going to have a surprise
08:29for your husband, huh?
08:31Yes.
08:31What's his name?
08:32We've never talked about it.
08:32His name's Ken.
08:33Ken.
08:34Okay, Ken Zool.
08:35Yes.
08:36That's a nice name.
08:36Now, you know me,
08:37you may quit any time you want.
08:38The audience probably will shout out
08:40all sorts of help and instructions.
08:42They don't know anything you don't know,
08:43but someone might have a feeling.
08:45You ready to begin?
08:46Yes.
08:46Here she goes.
08:47Good luck.
08:47First spin.
08:48Debra's first spin.
08:49I'll call out the numbers.
08:51$100, $75, and $25, $200.
08:55Okay.
08:56Go again.
08:56There she goes again.
08:58$250, $50, and $50, $500.
09:10The audience can be very persuasive.
09:12I'll go again.
09:14You got a pushover up here is what you got.
09:16Okay, the audience told you?
09:18No, I think I wanted to go.
09:20You're going to spin?
09:22Yes.
09:22All right.
09:22She's going to spin, he says.
09:24She spins, $25, $25, $75, $625.
09:33Okay, I'll go.
09:35You're going again.
09:37Go ahead.
09:37I don't care.
09:38Go ahead.
09:39She's going.
09:41Here comes $175, $275, $900.
09:50Such a hard decision.
09:52You may take a moment to think about it.
09:54It is hard.
09:58I'll go.
10:00I'll go.
10:01You sold her.
10:02She's going.
10:03You have $900.
10:04All to add to your $13,275.
10:07She said she was going.
10:08Have you changed your mind?
10:09No.
10:10There she goes.
10:11Crush your fingers.
10:14$25, $25.
10:16That's it.
10:17What a way to do it.
10:19What a way to do it.
10:21She did it about hard work.
10:23Oh.
10:30Well, I don't know.
10:31You did it the hard way.
10:32They say in Vegas.
10:33That's the hard way.
10:34Let me explain, in case you're new to our show,
10:35the total was $900.
10:37$325 has come up, which means $975.
10:39But any time on this show,
10:40we get a natural triple of any kind,
10:42it wins what's being shot for at that moment.
10:44So that means autumn.
10:45Well, I've got to count it out.
10:47The lady with all the money,
10:48and now she's going to get some cash.
10:51Wait till Ken hears about this.
10:53You ready?
10:54You folks, if you want to count along,
10:55it helps me because I'm getting a little feeble.
10:57All right.
10:58Here's $100.
10:58One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten.
11:09There's the $1,000 in cash.
11:11Now, in addition to that,
11:12you get the brass bed, the satin bedding,
11:13the draperies, the ladies watch.
11:15Total winnings, $17,225.
11:21It's been quite a week.
11:23Yes.
11:25This has been great.
11:26It has been quite a week for you.
11:29You're in grand shape, Deborah.
11:30Stay with us because you're going to meet
11:32another opponent in a little while.
11:33But right now, we have to pay for all this thing.
11:36Would you watch this, please?
11:41I don't recall exactly because, you know,
11:43time flies when you're having fun.
11:45But when we came in, we began the show,
11:47you were down around $9,000 or something like that.
11:49Look at you now, $17,225 in what?
11:52Ten minutes?
11:53I don't know.
11:54Boy.
11:55Well, Deborah Zool it is,
11:58who's a condo wife as opposed to a housewife.
12:00And she goes on.
12:01And in order to go on, Charlie,
12:03we have to find a new opponent.
12:04Whom have you found?
12:05Well, Bill, he's a gold prospector
12:07whose interests include astronomy and winemaking,
12:09Stephen Gale.
12:13Hello, Stephen.
12:18Hi.
12:19You sound like a free spirit,
12:20a gold prospector in astronomy and winemaking.
12:22Are you a free spirit?
12:23Sort of.
12:24I try to go out and do a lot of things.
12:25Well, you certainly seem like you do.
12:27Where do you prospect for gold, for instance?
12:29Well, I'll tell you where I prospect for gold,
12:31but not exactly where.
12:32I have to keep some secrets.
12:33Oh, yeah.
12:34I prospect up around the Yuba River
12:36and the Feather River up in Northern California.
12:38Oh, yeah.
12:38I know the Feather River.
12:39That's beautiful, beautiful.
12:40Oh, it is.
12:40Beautiful.
12:41If you don't find anything, you still have a good time.
12:43Well, you must have found something
12:45because you haven't given me the exact location.
12:47How much have you found?
12:48Well, I've been doing it for three months now
12:50and I've found about $20.
12:54Three months and you got $20?
12:55Yeah.
12:56I don't want the location.
12:58If you had a map, I wouldn't unfold it.
13:02But you might strike gold here.
13:05I don't know.
13:05Didn't there used to be a show like that?
13:07Anyway, you're going to have a chance at some big stuff.
13:09Well, good luck to you, Stephen.
13:11You're playing against a champion who's good
13:13and she's been lucky.
13:14Now, maybe your luck that you had finding gold
13:16will reverse itself and you'll do well here, okay?
13:19Take a look at these categories, if you will.
13:22We'll be playing with all about words,
13:25inventions, children's stories,
13:28tourist spots, and fast-forward classical music.
13:30Now, fast-forward is a good category
13:33and it can be fun
13:34because either one of you can use it as a catch-up
13:36if it becomes necessary as we get down toward the end.
13:39Hey, I forgot something in the pressure,
13:42and I'm sort of glad I did
13:43because we were talking about Debra's possibility
13:44of big winnings.
13:45I didn't mention the natural triple jackpot.
13:48That occurs when either of our players
13:50get three categories across the board all the same.
13:52We add to it every day
13:53and it hasn't been one for a long time.
13:56In there now, there are,
13:57I won't mention everything,
13:58shoes, typewriter, a wearing apparel,
14:00a washer, a dryer, a gas range, cookware,
14:03on and on and on.
14:04Total value, if either of you get
14:05a natural triple jackpot,
14:076,900 bucks.
14:11And that...
14:12And I always enjoy that
14:16because we just give it to you right there.
14:18We say, congratulations, that's a natural triple.
14:20Then we go on with our game.
14:21So, Stephen Gale, if you're ready to go,
14:23it's your first spin and good luck.
14:25Okay, come on, jokers.
14:27Let's see what Stephen does.
14:28He's got tourist spots all about words
14:30and children's stories.
14:31What do you want to do with that?
14:33I will take children's stories.
14:35Okay.
14:35For $50.
14:36For 50 bucks.
14:37In the adventures of Tom Sawyer,
14:40Tom sees this Indian commit a murder.
14:43Later, in a dramatic courtroom scene,
14:46Tom saves the life of an innocent man
14:48by pointing out this killer.
14:50This evil character, Stephen Gale,
14:53was named Injun Who.
14:56Joe.
14:56Right, you have 50 bucks on the lead.
15:00All right, Debra, let's see what you do here.
15:03Go jokers.
15:04Debra has children's stories.
15:05Fast forward, fast forward.
15:07Well, I leave it to you.
15:09Children's stories for 50, please.
15:11Oh, you're going to avoid the fast forward.
15:13Okay, just happy to stay even now.
15:16There's an 80 up there in front of Stephen.
15:17It actually should be a 50, but we'll fix that.
15:19Children's stories.
15:20In a famous Aesop fable, Debra,
15:23a certain animal attempted to reach some grapes on a vine,
15:26but failed.
15:27He then walked away,
15:29remarking that the grapes were probably sour anyway.
15:33For $50 and a tie game,
15:35what kind of animal was this unsuccessful grape grabber?
15:40A lion?
15:42No, he was not a lion.
15:43And Stephen, you can add the $50 to your score
15:46if you can tell me what kind of animal he was.
15:48A fox.
15:49You're right.
15:49That's right.
15:50You have $100.
15:54The Aesop fable was appropriately entitled
15:58The Fox and the Grapes.
15:59Clever?
16:00We'll be back here in just a little while.
16:02Pick it up right there.
16:07Well, Stephen, you find yourself in a pretty good spot here
16:09against this sensational champion you're leading,
16:12and you have a spin.
16:13Yes.
16:14Okay, let's go.
16:16Well put.
16:16Come on.
16:17Go ahead.
16:18Come on, jokers.
16:19Well put, Stephen.
16:21You have inventions.
16:22Jokers stories.
16:23And inventions.
16:25I'll take inventions for $100.
16:27I don't blame you a bit.
16:28You're going for another $100.
16:29Here you go, Steve.
16:30This 19th century American built...
16:32Let me read it again.
16:33I want to get it right for you.
16:34This 19th century American built the first elevator
16:38which was protected against falling by safety devices.
16:42In 1854, he demonstrated this device
16:45by cutting the lifting rope while standing in the elevator.
16:50For $100, this man was Elisha who?
16:55Otis.
16:56Correct.
16:57Elisha, Graves, Otis.
16:59Woo!
17:00I didn't know...
17:01I didn't know he was silly enough to do that,
17:05but he did cut it while he was good for him.
17:08Deborah, you have a spin coming.
17:09Let's see what you do.
17:10Okay.
17:11Come on, jokers.
17:12Deborah's the joker.
17:13Tourist spots.
17:14And tourist spots again.
17:16Well...
17:17Tourist spots for $200.
17:20Tourist spots for $200.
17:22Deborah for $200.
17:23One of the most popular attractions of this Mexican resort city
17:26is the nearby La Cabrata Cliffs.
17:31Did I do that right, Judge?
17:32That's correct, though.
17:33The La Cabrata Cliffs nearby.
17:35That's the place where daring divers plunge more than 120 feet
17:39into the waters of a rocky cove.
17:43For $200 on the board right now,
17:45name this Mexican resort city, Deborah.
