00:00From Hollywood, here's the game where knowledge is king and lady luck is queen. It's the Joker's Wild.
00:09And now, here's the host of our show, Jack Barry.
00:18Thank you very much and welcome once again to the Joker's Wild. We had all kinds of excitement on the last program.
00:24As you know, if you were watching, we crowned a champion who won five games. He won a car. He won all manner of things, including $16,000 or more in cash and prizes.
00:35He's back to play game number six with a worthy challenger, Jay Stewart. Introduce them both, if you will.
00:40My pleasure, Jack. As current champion, who's winnings total over $16,000, is a police officer and attorney. This is Gene Dunker.
00:49And his opponent is a librarian. Her interests are roller skating, camping, and her sister, Nancy. Meet Susan Coram.
01:01Susan and Gene, welcome back to the Joker's Wild. We discussed with both of you briefly something about your lives in the last program.
01:07Gene, again, my congratulations for winning over $16,000.
01:10I think any new people who are watching should know that Gene is a policeman who worked his way through college at night to become a lawyer.
01:16And despite all that and all those efforts, he was able to come here packed with knowledge and win himself a lot of money.
01:22Susan Coram would like to change things here and become the champion herself, would you not, Susan?
01:26I sure would.
01:27And to that end, you brought your twin sister along. I know she's out in the audience there somewhere.
01:31Is she still with us, your twin sister?
01:33Yes.
01:33You're identical twins, you told me on the last program.
01:35And people at home are looking at the faces now of both, and I'm sure they're telling exactly that you are really identical.
01:42And let's see if you share identical joys in the event you should be able to win against Gene.
01:48He's a tough man, and here are the categories in this game.
01:51They are as follows.
01:52Fast forward spelling. I'll explain that when we get to it.
01:55Famous residences.
01:57Cooking.
01:58Sports World.
01:59And Rock Group.
02:00Those in the category, here is the game.
02:03Game number six for Gene Dunkler, and your first game, Spin, Susan.
02:11Famous residences.
02:12Fast forward spelling and a pair.
02:14I'll tell you again that fast forward spelling on this category, if you want to play it, it's worth $50.
02:20You can answer as many, spell as many words as you want, and you can stop whenever you want.
02:24There'll be risks along the way.
02:26How do you want to play this?
02:27I'm going to try fast forward spelling, Jack's a 50.
02:30Okay, each question is worth $50.
02:33Here is the first one.
02:36Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious.
02:40How do you like that for a start?
02:42Is one of the most unusual words in the history of cinema.
02:46For $50, spell cinema.
02:50C-I-N-E-M-A.
02:53Well, that's supercalifragilisticexpialidocious.
02:55You got $50.
02:55Now, you can stop with $50, or you can risk it and go to $100.
03:02I'll risk it, Jack, and go to $100.
03:04Okay, for $100 or for nothing.
03:06I hope you don't think this is an outrageous request, but I'd like you to spell the word outrageous.
03:12O-U-T-R-A-G-E-O-U-S.
03:16You're now at $100.
03:19Want to stop at $100 or go for $150?
03:21I'll go for $150.
03:23Okay, for $150 or nothing.
03:26It just might occur to you that you can win a lot of money playing Joker's Wild.
03:30Spell occur.
03:32O-C-C-U-R.
03:33Right, you have $150.
03:39Want to stop with $150 or risk it all and go for $200?
03:43I'll risk.
03:44Okay, going for $200 or zero.
03:47So, the difference between a professional speller and an amateur speller is that one of them gets paid for it.
03:53Be a professional.
03:55Spell the word amateur.
03:57A-M-A-T-E-U-R.
04:00You now have $200.
04:07I hope you won't be insulted if I now tell you that you're now a pro.
04:11Oh, good.
04:12You have $200.
04:13Would you like to stop with $200 or go for $250?
04:15I'm going to go for $250.
04:17Oh, boy.
04:17This lady's going.
04:18All right.
04:19For $250 or nothing, think quickly and spell the word accelerate.
04:24A-C-C-E-L-E-R-A-T-E.
04:28Right, for $250.
04:34You have $250.
04:36I question you.
04:37You can stop anytime you want and protect your $250, or would you rather go for $300?
04:41I'm going to go for $300.
04:43All right.
04:43$300 or zero.
04:46How do you feel, Gene?
04:47Oh, this is tension.
04:49This is tension.
04:50Spell tension.
04:51Never mind.
04:52I almost did it.
04:54I'm sure the audience will sympathize with you as you attempt to spell the word sympathize.
05:01For $300 or nothing, spell sympathize.
05:06S-Y-M-P-A-T-H-I-Z-E.
05:11You have $300.
05:12$300.
05:21Want to stop with $300 or go for $350?
05:23What are you doing, Gene?
05:24What are you telling me to do?
05:25Tell her to stop.
05:26You want her to stop, huh?
05:27What do you want to do?
05:28I'm going to go for $350.
05:30$350.
05:31All right.
05:32Here we go.
05:34I hope this word doesn't wear you out.
05:37But for $350 or nothing, spell the word fatigue.
05:42F-A-T-I-Q-U-E.
05:48That is not correct.
05:49Oh, it's a G.
05:50If you spell it correctly, you will get $50.
05:53How do you spell it?
05:54F-A-T-I-G-U-E.
05:57Right.
05:57You have $50.
05:58Congratulations, Gene.
06:01And unfortunately for you, Susan, we have to take away your hard-earned $300 and put you back to zero.
06:07Not only that, but you almost helped him.
06:09I don't even know if he heard you, but you spelled it correctly, and I think he may have heard you.
06:13At any rate, Gene, that was your break.
06:15Now your spin.
06:16Jokers, come on.
06:18Come on.
06:18All right.
06:19The famous residence is I.
06:21All right.
06:21Perfect.
06:25Jack, I'll take famous residences for 200, please.
06:29If a British subject wished to express her dissatisfaction with England's majority party, she might write a letter to the official residence of the Prime Minister.
06:37To what number and street address would she write?
06:40That would be number 10, Downing Street, Jack.
06:41Right.
06:42And you have $250.
06:43Go on zero to $250.
06:44We'll finish the game after this.
06:46Those of you who were watching our last program saw Gene Dunker win five games in a row, and he, like all other players, got this beautiful reward.
07:03A brand-new car!
07:07We all need you.
07:08My life.
07:09Designed for comfort and convenience with front-wheel drive, providing impressive control and traction, furnished by Buick.
07:17And now in his sixth game, he is leading 250 to zero, but it is your spin, Susan Corum.
07:25Famous residences repair and cooking.
07:29I think I'll take famous residences for 100, please.
07:32According to legend, when Robin Hood wasn't robbing from the rich and giving to the poor, he could usually be found in a Nottinghamshire forest.
07:39Name that forest.
07:41Sherwood Forest.
07:42That's right.
07:42You have $100.
07:44Okay, Gene Dunker.
07:46Come on, jokers.
07:47Come on, Nate.
07:48Come on, Nate.
07:48There's a fast-forward spelling and cooking.
07:51Ooh.
07:51Uh, Jack, I'll take, um, cooking, please, for 100.
07:55No kidding.
07:56Yes.
07:57I thought you were going to take fast-forward spelling.
07:59No, I do most of the cooking around the house.
08:00Oh.
08:00I'll take cooking.
08:01Okay, here's your category.
08:02C-O-O-K-I-N-G.
08:04For $100, a hearty omelet, which is composed of green peppers, onions, and tomatoes, bears the name of a European country.
08:12Name this egg-loving country.
08:14A Spanish omelet.
08:15Correct.
08:15You are correct.
08:16For $100, $250.
08:19Your spin, Susan.
08:23Oh, Joker.
08:24Famous residences and a chicken.
08:26I'm going to go off the board and take fast-forward spelling for $50.
08:37I knew you had that in mind.
08:40And this time, you'll try not to say a Q for a T, right?
08:43I hope not.
08:43Here we go again.
08:44Up the ladder.
08:45$50 for each correct word spelled.
08:48This is no plot, but it could lead to grave consequences if you can't spell the word cemetery.
08:55Spell cemetery.
08:57C-E-M-E-T-E-R-Y.
08:59That's correct.
09:00You have $150.
09:00Want to stop or go ahead?
09:05I'll go ahead.
09:06Okay.
09:06If you can spell margarine, you'll be able to afford the high-priced spread.
09:10Spell margarine.
09:12M-A-R-G-E-R-I-N-E.
09:15That's not correct.
09:16So you'll get $50 if you can spell the word correctly, Gene.
09:19M-A-R-G-I-R-I-N-E.
09:26That's wrong, too.
09:27You put an E instead of an A. It's M-A-R-G-A-R-I-N-E.
09:33You put an E. You put an I.
09:35Ooh, wow, you're both wrong.
09:37So you go back to where you were, citizen, $100, and you say a $350, and it's your spin, Gene.
09:44Come on, jokers.
09:46Fast forward spelling, okay, and it's good.
09:49I'll take the fast forward spelling, Jack, please, for $200.
09:58Okay, and you'll have your choice.
09:59If you answer this correctly, you'll be at $550.
10:01That'll be enough to win.
10:02But no one says that you can't keep on playing after that if you like.
10:05That's the nature of the category.
10:07Here you go for a victory if you spell this word correctly or continue playing if you like.
10:12It's no small matter spelling the word miniature.
10:15For $550 and a possible win, bringing your winnings over $16,600, spell miniature.
10:23M-I-N-I-A-T-U-R-E.
10:27You've just won $16,600.
10:29Congratulations to you, Gene.
10:43That's game number six.
10:45$16,600, a chance to come over here and bring your winnings over $20,000, depending on your luck against the devil.
10:52Well, Susan, I applaud you for your courage and the fact that you just put that E in instead of an A and a Q instead of a T.
11:00You might have won some money.
11:01But backstage with these nice consolation prizes, goodbye, Susan Torch.
11:07As for you, Gene, come on over and face the old demo.
11:14Congratulations again.

12:37Okay.
12:38Get away from here.

12:42$150!
12:42It is not to be.

13:40Jay Stewart, who will he play it against?
13:42We'll meet now a homemaker.
13:44She has three children, and her hobby is jumping rope.
13:47Meet Sylvia Bush.
13:52Hi, Sylvia.
13:53How are you?
13:55Just fine, thank you.
13:56You jump rope.
13:56How many times can you jump without stopping?
13:58I can jump about four minutes.
14:00Four minutes?
14:01How many times is that?
14:02Well, I jump about 140 jumps per minute.
14:04Oh, boy, that's a lot.
14:05It wears you out.
14:06I bet.
14:07But you look like you stay in shape that way.
14:09I keep in shape for seeing, or I try to.
14:11That's very nice.
14:11Tell us about your family.
14:12I have a lovely family.
14:14I have a boy who's nine.
14:16I have a little girl who's seven.
14:17I have a Charles and an Allison.
14:19And then my real stinker in the family is an 18-month-old baby called Timothy Michael.
14:23That gives me fits.
14:24I bet.
14:25And, of course, the lovely husband that gave them all to me, my husband's house.
14:28Sounds like a growing family.
14:30Well, pregnancy may strike at any time.
14:34Well, just keep on jumping.
14:35Okay.
14:36I can't do it all day.
14:38Jump and self-protection.
14:40Here comes a nice hubby.
14:42Keep on jumping.
14:44I've tried all sorts of ploys.
14:47Well, you'll have to jump around a little bit here to get accustomed to these categories.
14:50And here they are for you and Gene.
14:52Categories are Explorers.
14:53Then we have Theme Songs, followed by Midwest States, Films of the 70s, and All About Languages.
14:59Challenger goes first.
15:01Sylvia Bush, you're up.
15:02Good luck.
15:02All right.
15:03Come on, jokers.
15:05Films of the 70s, a pair, and Explorers.
15:08All right.
15:08I'll take Films of the 70s for 100.
15:11Okay.
15:11In his 1979 film, Manhattan, Woody Allen plays a New York writer who falls in love with
15:17a beautiful high school student named Tracy.
15:19What's the last name of the actress who plays Tracy?

15:54The Deer Hunter.

15:55You got $50.
15:56Of course, you're on a 50.
15:58You're a spin, Sylvia.

16:19All about languages.
16:21A pair and a pair.
16:22All right.
16:25Jack, I'll take all about languages for $200, please.
16:27The sentence, Willie walked from Walla Walla to Waukegon without once wetting his windbreaker
16:32is an example of a literary device that uses repetition for humorous effect, even though
16:38we didn't get any laughs.
16:40For $200, what is the term for this device?
16:44Consonance?
16:45Nope.
16:45$200 and you can tell me.

16:47That's right.
16:48Alliteration.
16:49You got $300.
16:51So, $350, Gene, you're a champion citizen danger.

16:57Team songs, all about languages, and a jokers.
17:00All right.
17:00I'll take all about languages for $100.
17:02What is the language term that defines the study of the meaning of words?
17:12Now do it.
17:13$100 if you know the answer, Gene.
17:15Etymology?

17:18Semantic.
17:19You're spinging.
17:23Midwest State, explorers, and a pair.
17:25Jack, I'll take explorers for $100, please.

17:44Vasco de Gama.
17:45Yes, we have $400.
17:48And you get closer to a victory.
17:50Give him a spin.
17:50Come on, Sylvia.
17:53All of our minds with your team songs.
17:56Nope.
17:56You can't go out on this spin at any rate.
17:59I'll try films of the 70s.
18:01Correct answer here.
18:02It would bring you to $450 and put Gene Dunker in the greatest jeopardy he's been in since he's
18:08been on the program.
18:09Here is the question.
18:11One 1978 movie was highly praised for its cinematography.
18:14It told how the lives of three American drifters intersect with that of a wealthy farmer.
18:19Complete its title.
18:21Days of what?
18:22Heaven.
18:23Yes, that's right.
18:24You have $150.
18:26You need a big spin, Gene.
18:28Three jokers.
18:29Come on.
18:30Come on.
18:31Come on.
18:31Theme songs.
18:32Theme songs.
18:33All about languages.
18:35I'll take theme songs for $100, please, Jackie.
18:37In 1946, this first lady of the land might have sung to the president this theme song.
18:42I'm just wild about Harry.
18:44Give me the name, the last name of this first lady.
18:50Truman.
18:50Yes, that's Truman.
18:51You go to $150.
18:54Your spin, Sylvia.
18:57All about languages.
18:59It's more than a joke.
19:00I think I will take All About Languages for $50.
19:08For what?
19:09$50.
19:10Okay.
19:10Correct answer would bring you to $500.
19:11That's all you need to win the game.
19:13But Gene gets a last spin.
19:15And remember, two or three times already, he has gotten three jokers.
19:18Here it is.
19:19One French word is commonly used by the press and describes the easing of tensions between nations.
19:26For $500 and a possible victory, what is the French word?
19:30Beton.
19:30Yes.
19:31Beton.
19:31You have time on that.
19:37Gene, under our scoring system, there's only one way you can win.
19:40You've got to get three jokers.
19:41If you don't, you lose the game, but you take home $16,600.
19:46Give them a spin.
19:47Come on, guys.
19:49Come on.
19:49It's over.
19:51Congratulations.
