00:01Today on the Joker's Wild, the Tournament of Champions continues, and one of these 11 remaining contestants will win cash and prizes totaling $50,000.
00:16And now, here's your host, Jack Barry.
00:20Thank you very much, and welcome back once again to the Tournament of Champions here on the Joker's Wild.
00:32One of these 11 remaining people, they are our all-time money winners, are back because we are gradually, gradually eliminating, eliminating,
00:42until finally one of these people is going to end up as the grand winner of the Tournament of Champions with $50,000 in cash and prizes.
00:49Now, as you look around from the past few days, and as you search your memory, I'm sure you'll remember them from appearing originally on the Joker's Wild.
00:57They come from various parts of the country, and their previous winnings ranged all the way to $16,000, way up to $25,000.
01:04They're all here, of course, to compete in this tournament, and one of these will be crowned the grand champion in just a few days.
01:11The rewards will be fabulous, fabulous prizes, including a trip around the world, a brand new Nova Chevrolet, $25,000 in cash.
01:18As you know, all totaling $50,000.
01:24And they are answered.
01:27We were just about to start a game with two of our champions.
01:31When our time ran out, we're going to do that now.
01:33As our champions take our position, let me explain how our tournament works,
01:37to those of you who are watching the tournament for the first time.
01:39The preliminaries, which we're doing now, consist of eight games.
01:41We've already had some, and we've pared down.
01:43The eight winners will then advance to the quarterfinals.
01:46The four winners of the quarterfinals will play the semifinals.
01:49And the final match will then be determined which is the all-time champion.
01:54And our players will draw lots to determine who plays against whom and who goes first and all the other things that are relevant.
02:02And now let's start our first match off today by introducing two of our champions.
02:08Jay Stewart, will you tell us where they are, please?
02:10I'm all ready if you are.
02:12Jack, here's a lady who won $16,862, a pre-med student.
02:17And her hobbies are eating and cooking and eating and dieting.
02:19Meet Cheryl James.
02:24And this gentleman won $21,845 from Brook Park, Ohio.
02:30He's a salesman.
02:31His hobbies are sports and reading.
02:32His name is Bob Charicella.
02:34Ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to the Joker's Wild.
02:38On the last one, we learned a little bit about you, and we relived some of those lovely moments on the earlier Joker's Wild.
02:43Bob, I just want to reestablish that when you did win on the Joker's Wild, over $20,000, you were living in New York City, correct?
02:49That's right, Jack.
02:50And then you went to move to Cleveland, and you got married, and you went back to school.
02:53A lot of exciting things have happened to you.
02:55That's right, Jack.
02:56And Cheryl, you graduated, you had a baby.
02:59Yes.
02:59And you were anxious to play this game.
03:01Oh, yes.
03:01I don't blame either one of you for being eager.
03:03Now, let's take a look at the categories which will be used in this qualifying match.
03:07The mystery category, take it and you'll get double.
03:10Elton John, that's followed by War Headlines.
03:15Then we have the category Science.
03:17And finally, Multiple Meanings, words with mean various things.
03:22You won the right to go first, and so you do.

07:30You'll pick up 100 points if you can tell me, Bob.
07:33Jack, would you repeat the question again, please?
07:34Approximately 75% of our air is composed of one gas.
07:37Name the gas which is the largest single component of our air.
07:42Jack, is it hydrogen?
07:43I beg your pardon?

09:28I would like to take both the Jokers.
09:30Right.
09:30And go off the boards.
09:31Right.
09:32For war headlines.
09:34Please.

10:01Name the war.
10:03I believe it was the Crimean War.
10:04You win the game, Bob Charicella.
10:17Congratulations, Bob Charicella.
10:19You have won the game, and as a result, you will go on with the other winners to the quarterfinals.
10:24Possibly you will be the person to win $50,000 in cash and prizes.
10:29Cheryl James, it was, as always, good to see you, as it is the others.
10:33Delighted to know about your career and your life.
10:35Glad that the Joker's Wild has been some help to it.
10:37Sorry you couldn't win here again, but there'll be a lovely consolation prize.
10:41Let's say goodbye to Cheryl and Bob, and we'll be seeing Bob in the quarterfinals.
10:45We'll be back to meet two more champions after this.
10:50Drawing to a close, we're going to finish them up very shortly.
10:53Let's meet two of our remaining champions, Jay.
10:56First of all, here's a gentleman who won $16,800, a teacher and education evaluator raised in Baltimore, Maryland.
11:05He likes motorcycle racing.
11:07It's Guy Strickland.
11:14And this man won $20,562, a former Bible salesman, now a freelance writer.
11:20Say hello to Ron Quigley.
11:21Hello.
11:22Kathleen, it's nice to have you back after a long absence here in the Joker's Wild.
11:27I'd like to ask both of you the same question.
11:29Guy, what did you do with the money you won on the Joker's Wild?
11:32Well, Jack, I paid for an engagement ring and a wedding ring and a honeymoon, related expenses.
11:39All to do with your romantic life.
11:41Yes, in fact, just three years ago, today we were on our honeymoon.
11:46Well, by golly, we're delighted that the Joker's Wild played at least a small part in that episode of your life, which we're sure is a very happy one.
11:54Ron Quigley, tell us about how you invested your money or what you did with it.
11:57Well, I first spent some of it having a good time, Jack, and then put some in the bank, put some in investments, and used it to keep the landlord away from my door while I kept on with the writing.
12:08A good thing to do.
12:10Well, we have a moment here that we want you to take a peek at in our monitor.
12:13The people at home will see it there.
12:14When you appeared, it was 1973.
12:16We had a rule then about a Joker jackpot.
12:18And here's that moment just before you broke the Joker jackpot for $20,500-some-odd.
12:25Gertrude Berg created a famous radio serial Bronx family headed by a character named Molly for $20,562.
12:38What was the last name of the family?
12:42Goldberg.
12:42No one!
13:00What a moment.
13:02Ron Quigley, you know with your glasses and with your beard and your mustache, I hardly recognize you.
13:06I'm sure the people did, but now that you took your glasses off, we see you much better.
13:09That's like looking through a high school yearbook, Jack.
13:12It really is, although a little more profitable.
13:14Yes.
13:15I'll show you both the categories we're going to use in this contest.
13:17Here are the categories to be used.
13:19Mixed Fruits, followed by Weights and Measures.
13:22Then we have Rodgers and Hammerstein.
13:25Foreign Authors.
13:26And finally, Geographical Name Changes.
13:30Guy Strickland, you're up first.
13:31Spin and good luck.
13:34Rodgers and Hammerstein, Joker.
13:35Hey, a triple.
13:40Jack, I'll take Rodgers and Hammerstein for $200.
13:43Okay.
13:43Rodgers and Hammerstein's final musical as a team featured, among other hits, the popular Climb Every Mountain.
13:50For 200 points, name the musical.
13:55Oklahoma.
13:56No, that's not right.
13:57You have a terrific opportunity to pick up 200 points, Ron Quigley.
14:00What was it?
14:02The Sound of Music.
14:04That's right.
14:04You have 200 points.
14:06And it's just this.
14:09Joker.
14:10Joker.
14:11Foreign Authors.
14:13I think I'll take Foreign Authors for 200, Jack.
14:16Name the Greek poet responsible for the epic poems The Iliad and The Odyssey.
14:19Homer.
14:20Right.
14:20You have 300 for 400 points.
14:24Your spin guy.
14:26Joker.
14:27Rodgers and Hammerstein, Foreign Authors.
14:30I'll take Foreign Authors for 100, Jack.
14:33The hero of this action book, Edward Dantes, is falsely imprisoned, but escapes and avenges himself on all who have wronged him.
14:39This book was written by French author Alexander Dumas.
14:42Name it.
14:43The Count of Monte Cristo.
14:44Right.
14:45You have 100 points.
14:46And it's your spin, Ron Quigley.
14:49Mixed Fruits.
14:50A pair and a triple.
14:54Jack, I'll take Mixed Fruits for 100 dollars.
14:57All right.
14:58100 points.
14:59Okay.
15:00Because you are the Joker, you are permitted to do that.
15:02Here is...
15:03I'm going to ask you to look behind me, if you will, and I'm going to show you a mixed-up fruit.
15:09I'm going to give you a clue, and with the clue and the mixed-up fruit, if you can answer this correctly, you will, in a very lightning thrust, win this game.
15:17The name of this fruit is also the name of a ruling family of medieval Holland.
15:22For 500 points, name it.
15:24Orange.
15:25Right!
15:25And you win the game!
15:26Congratulations, Ron Quigley.
15:35You are winning...
15:36You won 500 points.
15:37You won the game.
15:38And you will, of course, go on to the quarterfinals, in which case you might end up winning the $50,000.
15:44Guy, it was a quick contest.
15:45I'm delighted that the Joker's Wild was helpful to you years ago.
15:49Indeed.
15:49I'm sorry it couldn't be now, but you will get a handsome consolation prize.
15:52We'll say goodbye to you, and Ron Quigley, we'll see you in the quarterfinals.
15:56We'll be back right after this.
15:59Who's your favorite game show host?
16:01Richard Dawson.
16:02You are funny.
16:03He's so lovable.
16:04What a job.
16:05He gets to kiss all of the women.
16:07Alex Trebek.
16:08He's just the hunkiest hunk there ever was.
16:11Pat Sajak's excellent.
16:12Oh, hi.
16:13I'm in love with a band of white.
16:15Wink.
16:16Martindale.
16:16Gosh, I feel like Richard Dawson with that hug like that.
16:19Gene Rayburn, I'm telling you, incredible.
16:22Tune in to watch, play, and win on the all-new Game Show Network.
16:26Let the games begin.
16:29In for a full hour as they make the matches.
16:33Two match games coming at you next on Game Show Network.
16:38We'll meet two new champions in just a moment.
16:40I've told you that one of the prizes our all-time champion is going to get is a brand-new Nova.
16:44Jay's going to tell us about it.
16:45That new Nova is for people who like a touch of wagon with their car.
16:49With rear seat down, you get over six feet of floor and lots of load space.
16:52Rear seat up, you get family roominess.
16:55Chevrolet Nova, solid, sensible, and size for today.
16:58And furnished by Chevrolet.
17:00A lovely prize indeed.
17:01And it might go to one of these two former champions.
17:05This player won $25,000.
17:08He's an artist and businessman originally from Medford, Oregon.
17:11It's Tom Jacobs.
17:12And his opponent won $19,451.
17:21A racehorse groom from Cleveland, Ohio.
17:23His hobbies are trivia and traveling.
17:25Tom Kuznick.
17:27This will be the battle of the Toms.
17:29Two Toms.
17:30They won once before.
17:31One of them might win again.
17:33Tom Jacobs, tell me about the $25,000 you won.
17:36What happened to it?
17:37Well, Jack, we'd been renting a home up to the time that I was on the game.
17:42And with the winnings, I was able to buy a home and completely furnish it.
17:46Drive a couple cars, take a few vacations, you know, things like that.
17:50You really lived it up.
17:51Oh, yeah.
17:51It was great.
17:52Well, it was a very exciting moment.
17:53I remember very well when you were on the Jokers Wild.
17:54I want to show you that moment.
17:56Recapture it for you and our audience.
17:58Here is the precise moment that led you to $25,000.
18:01Three Jokers that'll put you over the $25,000 mark.
18:05If the devil comes up, you'll lose.
18:06And you could go on and play another game.
18:09See what you get.
18:10Here we go.
18:11You have Joker, Joker, Joker.
18:15You have $25,000.
18:17What a moment.
18:32That was an exciting one.
18:34And Tom Kismik, we had lots of fun with him on the Jokers Wild, too.
18:37Tom, what happened to your $19,000-some-odd dollars?
18:41Well, Jack, when I was back in high school and college, I didn't own a car of my own.
18:44And my brother used to always make his accessible to me.
18:47So when I won, I gave him a brand-new car.
18:50And with some of the other money, I put some in the bank.
18:53I used some for travel.
18:54And I invested some in the stock market.
18:56I bought some stocks that at first went down.
18:59And then they started rising up.
19:00They had a two-for-one split.
19:02So I finished pretty well ahead of the game.
19:03That's very, very good.
19:04I remember there was a particular moment on the old Jokers Wild show that I remember very well.
19:10It took place, as a matter of fact, after you won the $19,451.
19:14Take a look and see if you remember it.
19:17Well, this very responsive audience out here, and I'm sure the millions of people across the country
19:21were screaming and yelling at your victory and at your obvious elation.
19:25You were murdering and murmuring all kinds of things here.
19:27What were some of the things you were saying?
19:28I couldn't even hear you saying.
19:29I couldn't believe it.
19:30I can't believe it.
19:31Why was that?
19:32Well, I was trying to remember some of my old prayers to thank heaven for it.
19:36It's just really something out of a dream, really.
19:38In a moment of some reverence here at this moment, it is interesting to note that back,
19:45which seems like a long time ago, but it wasn't just the last show or the last two shows,
19:49one of the categories you had was religion.
19:52And if my memory serves me right, you answered every single question correctly.
19:57Are you a religious man?
19:59Yes, I am, Jack.
20:02Can I see my denominator?
20:03Yes, of course.
20:04Yes, I'm a Roman Catholic, and I've always been very interested in religion.
20:09I think that there is really something very important for everything there.
20:13I should say so.
20:14Well, you not only demonstrated that you know your own religion and other religions,
20:20but you demonstrated that you know a lot about 14 or 15 different categories.
20:24I know a lot of people here in the previous audiences were a little bit taken aback by the way you played.
20:30You played carefully.
