00:00Got your whistle. Well, it's a symphony of F-U-N fun. Woo-hoo! All play, all day.
00:10From Television City in Hollywood, this is the $25,000 Pyramid.
00:19Today's special guest, from Knox Landing, Constance McCashan, and from Private Benjamin, Robert Van Dance.
00:30Your host is Dick Clark.
00:35Thank you very, very much.
00:37Welcome once again to the $25,000 Pyramid.
00:40We've had a mighty good week here, and before it slips away from me,
00:43I have just discovered that we're coming up on premieres here.
00:47Your show, Knox Landing, goes next week for the first time when?
00:51The 30th, next Thursday.
00:53Thursday night, first show of the season. Much good luck with that.
00:57And, Robert, when does Private Benjamin end up here?
00:58Mine starts on Monday night at 8.30, right here on CBS.
01:01It'll be a big week here on CBS.
01:03It'll be a bigger day here this afternoon, because we have the $25,000 Pyramid,
01:07where every day of the week we give two contestants a chance to win $25,000 in less than 60 seconds,
01:14and it could very well happen to Constance's partner, and this is Beth Kahn.
01:19Beth, tell me, they don't know. I chatted with you a moment ago.
01:22What's your husband's name?
01:23Tim Kahn.
01:24Tim Kahn. There you are.
01:25Close.
01:26You imagine, as a kid, what he went through and all his...
01:29What do you do, Beth?
01:30I'm a teacher. Teach junior high.
01:32We're real happy to have you here. I hope your kids are all rooting for you there,
01:35and you have a fine partner. Constance has had a lot of warm-up practice this week,
01:39so far, as Robert has.
01:40Janet, you've been around for eons, since Monday. You've accumulated over $13,000, or just $13,000,
01:48and a sailboat and lots of goodies. You ready to go again?
01:50Yeah.
01:51All right. We wish you much good luck. If you all will please direct your attention over here,
01:55I'll call off the subject materials. We have the Roman Empire, no peaking, what'll you have,
01:59over the rainbow, on again, off again, and to be continued. And Constance, before you select one of these,
02:05there's one little point I left out. If you go to the winner's circle the first time, you try for $10,000.
02:10The second time, you try for $25,000. This time around, you and your partner will try to win the opportunity
02:15to go for the 10. Which one would you like?
02:19No peaking?
02:20No peaking.
02:21No peaking it is. All right. Please describe these things that you do with your eyes closed.
02:27These are things you do with your eyes closed. Ready? Go.
02:31Yawn.
02:34Sneeze.
02:35Um, uh, Meditation.
02:38Pray.
02:38Meditation, a type of meditation.
02:40Oh, yoga.
02:42Uh, the other thing you just said.
02:44Uh, oh, all of a sudden I think I'm going to...
02:46Faint.
02:47Um, a game children play.
02:49Height and go seek.
02:50Um, the other thing, like yoga, um, when you close your eyes and you, in church, you might do this.
02:55Meditate.
02:56Mm-hmm.
02:56That's got it, ladies, seven out of seven.
02:58A lot of, overlapping there.
03:00Well done.
03:01Robert and Janice, a lot of choices over there. What have you decided on?
03:06To be continued.
03:07To be continued. All right. That's your partner's story. She is continued day after day here.
03:12Janet, he's going to describe these things in a soap opera. Things in a soap opera. Ready? Go.
03:18Uh, the holy man.
03:21The, uh, father.
03:22The father.
03:22Reverend.
03:23Another name.
03:23The Catholic church.
03:24The pope.
03:25The father.
03:26The father in a Catholic church.
03:27The bishop.
03:28Go on.
03:30Uh, not a square.
03:31A triangle.
03:33Uh, if a lady is carrying a baby, she is...
03:35She's pregnant.
03:36Uh, if a doctor performs an...
03:38Uh, incision, surgery.
03:39The whole thing.
03:40He performs...
03:40Operations.
03:41Uh, I can't remember. I've got, uh...
03:44I had amnesia.
03:45Uh, I have great riches. I'm very...
03:47Wealthy.
03:49Okay, you've got credit for that one. The first one that sucked you...
03:52They're so easy.
03:55The man in the Catholic church was not as high up as all of those other people.
03:58The everyday man of the claw. Where's the collar?
04:01The father.
04:02The priest.
04:03The priest. Oh.
04:04That was the blank you drew there. I'm sorry about that.
04:07In any case, it's still a tight score. Seven to five.
04:09Constance and Beth, what would you like?
04:11What do you have?
04:12Okay, describe, uh, for your partner, please, these things associated with a waiter or waitress.
04:18Things associated with a waiter or waitress. Ready? Go.

04:48Oh, take out.
04:49You want it in a hotel. You want it in a hotel.
04:50Room service.
04:50You want them to bring it.
04:51You do got it.
04:52All right.
04:57We have the Roman Empire over the rainbow. On again, off again. Janet?
05:03On again, off again.
05:05Describe for Robert these things that you get on and off.
05:10Things that you get on and off. Ready? Go.
05:14Okay. This is an Otis. You get on it in the building.
05:17Yes. Okay. This is in the desert. The ship of the desert. It's an animal. One hump or two.
05:22A camel.
05:22Okay. This is a school. It drives all the kids. It's big and yellow.
05:25Yellow. Yes. Okay. This is... You go up and down.
05:28Uh, hills.
05:29It's, uh... No, it's a wheelhouse.
05:30Roller coaster.
05:30Yes. Okay. This is a little, uh, chair without any back on it.
05:35Stool.
05:35Yes. Okay. And this is a... You... On the grind. A little hamster runs around on one.
05:40A wheel.
05:41It's, uh... Yeah. It's another word. It's a little, uh... Or you can jog on it.
05:45Hmm. Folks, that was a treadmill we were looking for.
05:48Tread.
05:49Yeah.
05:49Yeah.
05:51Robert and Janet, uh, there are two subjects left up on the board. You are trailing at this point.
05:55Therefore, the choice is yours. You have the Roman Empire and over the rainbow.
05:58Please select one of them and tell me who you want to give and who to receive.
06:02Uh, over the rainbow. I'll give the clues.
06:04Okay. As quickly as you can, describe to your partner these things associated with rain.
06:09These are things associated with rain.
06:12Okay.
06:12Ready? Go.
06:13Okay. This is the man with the ark.
06:15Noah.
06:15Okay. This is, uh, a rainy month. It's right after March.
06:19April.
06:19Okay. This is a big storm, uh...
06:22Arcane.
06:22Yes. Okay.
06:23This is something that you jump in with boots on. It's, uh, after it rains. There's a big...
06:27Puddle.
06:27Yes. Okay.
06:28This is, it's a little bit wet. It's...
06:30Damp.
06:31Yes.
06:31Okay. And this is a big yellow raincoat. It's called a...
06:35Uh, uh...
06:36Slicker.
06:37Yes. Okay. And this is, uh, the corn and the wheat. It's all, uh...
06:41In the field?
06:42Yes. And it's a...
06:43Harvest.
06:43Plank of corn.
06:44Close. We were looking for crops.
06:46Crops.
06:46Crops.
06:47Crops.
06:47All right, everyone.
06:48Janet, you had a two-point lead there. My guess is it will not hold up. All is not lost. You will not be sent away, uh, unhappy. You'll be back to play again. But if your opponent here comes up with 17 points, you'll be trying for, uh, for, uh, $10,000.
07:02Beth, do you want to give or receive?
07:04I'm going to give.
07:04All right. Describe for your partner these things associated with Rome. Things associated with Rome. You need 17 points. Ready? Go.
07:15This is the man in the Vatican.
07:17Hope.
07:18This is the, uh, Trevi.
07:20And it...
07:20Fountain.
07:21Makes water.
07:21Yes. Uh, this is when it collapsed years and years ago. Rome collapsed. The whole city.
07:27Oh, the fall is...
07:28Yes.
07:28You got it. That's the 17 points you needed.
07:31You have won the opportunity to fly for $10,000.
07:34If you'll follow me, ladies, we'll go to the winner's circle.
07:43Do you hear him?
07:46Okay.
07:47We were, uh, talking while you were away about the fact that you should always go for the obvious thing as this information is exchanged here.
08:01Sometimes people will sort of hold back and not say something for fear of not looking bright or saying something silly.
08:08Happens occasionally.
08:09But the most important thing is to get the answers out in case one of them's right.
08:12Now, I'll just quick run through some of the things.
08:14You know, most of the rules don't use your hands.
08:16Give only a list.
08:17Six subjects up here.
08:18Uh, you can always move on and come back if you want to.
08:21The best thing to do is look at one another, study the face.
08:24Actors are great.
08:25You look at the face, you can read them.
08:27They'll tell you a lot with their faces.
08:28All right.
08:29Good luck.
08:29You're going for $10,000.
08:31Here is your first subject.
08:33Go.
08:34Corpuscles.
08:35Parts of the body.
08:36Parts of the bloodstream.
08:38Parts of the bloodstream.
08:40Um, shrimp.
08:42Lobster.
08:42Seafood.
08:44Shellfish.
08:45Yes.
08:46Uh, spatula.
08:48Kitchen tools.
08:50Things you use to turn things over.
08:51Things you use to base things.
08:53Uh, whisk.
08:55Things you use to beat things.
08:56Um, spatula.
08:58Things made of wire.
08:58Things made of metal.
08:59Pass.
09:00Next, please.
09:01Um, well, maybe I can give you five bucks for this.
09:04I don't know.
09:05I don't know.
09:06Uh, you know, I really need to get a new set of those three gold balls outside the store.
09:10What you would say to a pawnbroker.
09:12What a pawnbroker would say to you.
09:13All right.
09:14Um, children.
09:16Flowers.
09:18Things that grow.
09:18The rent.
09:19Things that are due.
09:20Things that.
09:21Children.
09:22Dough.
09:23Things that are old.
09:24Things that.
09:25Rent.
09:25Things that come around monthly.
09:27Dough.
09:27Pass.
09:28Next.
09:29Um, uh, uh, my face.
09:34I'm sorry, ladies, for time in.
09:36I don't turn around.
09:37We'll play off a couple here.
09:38You were very close on the first one that stuck you.
09:41Uh, you said a whisk, a spatula, a saucepan.
09:46Uh, what are all those things?
09:49Kitchen cooking items.
09:50Uh, ha ha.
09:51If you had said cooking items, we would have been all right.
09:54Uh, bread, your salary, the rent.
09:57Your children.
10:00Those are the things that.
10:01The flag.
10:03Terrific.
10:03Flag.
10:04Isn't that odd?
10:05What'd you say?
10:06Things you wave to?
10:07No.
10:08Wave to you.
10:08Turn around and take a look here for a second.
10:10Things you raise and things with a mouth.
10:12You picked up $350.
10:14We'll be back to play again right after this.
10:17Yeah.
10:18Yeah.
10:18Tomatoes.
10:20Vegetables.
10:21Raisins.
10:22They're so much.
10:34Folks, we've come very close this week to cracking that $25,000 mark up there on the $25,000 pyramid.
10:40So far today, Janet, you have no winnings, but this means that you must exceed the winnings of your opponent.
10:46In this case, Beth has $350 in the till.
10:51That's the high win so far.
10:53The person who accumulates the most money stays with us and continues the game.
10:57However, Janet, you've done very well along the way, and we wish you all the very best of luck.
11:01Beth, you've won your first game.
11:03That means that if you win the next game, you're going to the winner's circle and try for a grand total of $25,000.
11:09So hang in there, and we'll wish you all real good luck.
11:12Take a look at the board.
11:13These are the subjects.
11:14We have the bridal path, a star is born, the wild bunch in name only, toe-to-toe, and that mystery seven.
11:21Again, let me explain the mystery seven.
11:22It has a little bonus tied to it.
11:24This time, if you get seven out of seven there, you can win yourself a motor scooter worth $1,300.
11:30But I will not give you any more information about that.
11:32It's sort of a blind category.
11:34Usually, you have an idea of what it is.
11:35So there's a little bit of a risk if you play that, and we'll start the game this time with Constance and Janet.
11:42We're going to take the risk.
11:43Mystery seven.
11:44Oh, you're going to go for it right away.
11:46All right.
11:47I can't tell you what you're going to describe, but you'll have the usual 30 seconds.
11:51They all have something to do in common with one another, and that makes you become evident as you do it.
11:56All right.
11:56Stand by.
11:57Ready?
11:58Go.
11:59Something you climb up.
12:00The fireman uses it.
12:01A ladder.
12:02Something you carry when it rains.
12:03An umbrella.
12:05An unlucky number.
12:06Seven.
12:07An unlucky number.
12:09Something you do behind your back when you're telling a lie.
12:12With your hand.
12:13Oh, you cross your fingers.
12:15Um, something you do when you need luck and you pound on it first.
12:19You knock on wood.
12:20Mm-hmm.
12:21Um, uh, something, uh, a kind of a doll you poke needles into.
12:25A voodoo doll.
12:26Um, a little green guy in Ireland that brings you luck.
12:28Oh!
12:29Oh!
12:31Oh!
12:32Oh!
12:34Hey, usually, usually when people get six out of seven, they say, yeah, goody, I'm sorry you missed that one.
12:39You didn't get your motor scooter, but you got six points.
12:41It was a leprechaun, of course.
12:42Robert and Beth, which one of these remaining five would you like to play?
12:46The bridal path.
12:47The bridal path it is.
12:49Please describe for your partner these things associated with a wedding.
12:53Things associated with a wedding.
12:55Ready, go.
12:56Before you go after your honey.
12:58The honeymoon.
13:00Uh, the man who conducts the wedding.
13:01The minister.
13:04Uh, you drive in a big black...
13:06Limousine.
13:07Uh, what you say when you accept...
13:09I do.
13:10Uh, the, the grooms.
13:12Best man.
13:14Uh, uh, after the wedding, where all the guests come...
13:17Reception.
13:18Uh, what the groom wears.
13:19A tuxedo.
13:22All right, there we go.
13:23Um, I want to double-check this, uh, Jack, if you would get on headset, I have a question.
13:29Did it have to do with the honeymoon?
13:30Was there a bubble in there?
13:32He inadvertently, uh, said the word, uh...
13:34Yes, I thought I heard him say a little bit of it.
13:36They did not credit you, Robert, so the score stands as it is.
13:39Six to six, and, uh, constant standby.
13:42Janet, it's your choice.
13:43The wild bunch.
13:44The wild bunch it is.
13:46Describe as quickly as you can these things that are wild.
13:49Things that are wild.
13:51Ready?
13:52Go.
13:52All right, this, uh, grows in China.
13:55Rice.
13:55Yes, okay.
13:56This is something that you pull out of your garden if you don't want it.
13:58Weeds.
13:59Yes, okay.
14:00This is a, ooh, or it's a, like a duck.
14:02It's like a duck.

14:07This is, um, uh, a court jester.
14:09He's a real...
14:11Clown.
14:11He's funny, yeah.
14:12He tells funny...
14:13Yes, okay.
14:14This is, uh, you go and there's a lot of people and you drink cocktails and it's...
14:17Party.
14:17Yes, okay.
14:18And this is, uh, the wild man that rode a horse, a cowboy.
14:23Wild Bill Hickok is the last fellow we were looking for there.
14:27The score stands at 11 to six.
14:29Beth, is he going to be a star?
14:30Is born a name only or toe to toe?
14:32Oh, let's take toe to toe.
14:34Toe to toe it is.
14:35Robert, she's going to describe for you these, uh, oh, I beg your pardon, I was about to
14:39say things.
14:39It is what a dancer might think about.
14:43What a dancer might think about.
14:46Ready?

14:51Harder, harder.
14:51Stretch it.
14:52Yes, and a football player does this with the ball.
14:53Kicks.
14:53Right.
14:54And this is what they're going to be if they get their name up in lights.
14:58No, they're going to think about being, and it's the name of a TV show, I want to live
15:01forever.
15:02And it's, come on, then they're going to be very...
15:04Go on, go on.
15:04Name something like, go on.
15:06Okay.
15:06This is when they have to do it over and over and over again.
15:09Repeat.
15:09Rehearsal.
15:09Yes, right.
15:09Exercises.
15:10Okay.

15:19All right.
15:20Jack, I have one question.
15:24You did say fame, did you not?
15:25Yes, I did say fame.
15:26Judge, did we get credit for fame?
15:29Please investigate.
15:31You did indeed.
15:31Thank you very much.
15:32The score stands at 10 to 11.
15:3411 to 10.
15:35The last two subjects are a star is born in name only.
15:38Robert, which one would you like?
15:41Or Beth as the case may be.
15:43Either one's all right.
15:44All right.
15:44Let's take stars born.
15:45Stars born.
15:46And how would you like to play?
15:47I'll give.
15:48All right, sir.
15:48Describe these things associated with a star.
15:51Things associated with a star.

16:04A star of David.
