00:01Today, this player has won $9,850 and has beaten four opponents.
00:09If she beats her next opponent in her next game, she will win a car worth almost $4,000.
00:15As from Television City and Hollywood, it's everybody's game of strategy, knowledge, and fun.
00:22It's the new Tic-Tac-Toe.
00:25And now, here's our host, Sweet Portendale.
00:30Thank you very much. Thank you, Jay.
00:32Bye, everybody.
00:36Thank you so much.
00:38Welcome to our show.
00:39Remember all of those facts that when you were in school you stored up in your brain
00:42and you thought you might not need them or ever use them again?
00:44Or, in my case, the facts I should have stored up in my brain but didn't?
00:48Well, try some of those facts.
00:50See how much of it comes back to you as we play the new Tic-Tac-Toe.
00:53And here are our players.
00:54Jay?
00:54Well, here's our current champion.
00:56The champion week has those winnings totaling $9,850 in cash and prizes.
00:59It's a housewife whose interests are crossword puzzles and the theater.
01:02This is Ruth Reed.
01:04And her opponent is a teacher of U.S. history and social studies
01:07who's taught in Berlin, Germany,
01:09and whose hobbies are tennis and bridge.
01:11Meet Rick McGuff.
01:12Ruth, need I say welcome back?
01:22Yes.
01:23Make you feel a little more at home if I say welcome.
01:26$9,850 in cash and prizes.
01:28And, of course, if you beat one more opponent,
01:30why, you'll win that automobile, as Jay said.
01:32Good luck.
01:33The guy you're going to be playing against and try to beat is Rick McGuff.
01:37Did I pronounce that right?
01:38That's correct.
01:38Rick, how long did you teach in Berlin?
01:40About five years.
01:41Are you married?
01:43Yes, and I have a little three-month-old baby girl.
01:45He's married.
01:46No doubt about that.
01:47Hey, Rick, good luck.
01:48She's tough.
01:49She's a tough act to beat.
01:50Here's the way we play the new Tic-Tac-Toe.
01:52You get an X or an O for correctly answering a question
01:54in the category of the box you select.
01:56Three X's or three O's vertically, horizontally, or diagonally wins the game.
02:01An X or an O in an outside box adds $100 to the pot,
02:05and because the center box is so very important in the playing of Tic-Tac-Toe,
02:08it's a little harder, but it adds $200 to the pot.
02:11Whoever wins the game keeps all the money in the pot
02:13and goes on to play the Tic-Tac-Toe bonus game.
02:16All righty, let's take a look at the categories we'll be playing with in this game.
02:19Ruth and Rick.
02:20Take a look.
02:21Funny Ladies, Bills and Billies, Poetry, Scary Things, Foreign Stars,
02:26Today's Music, Basketball, Finish the List, and Islands.
02:30Now, before we begin asking Ruth for her first X,
02:32let's move the categories around on the board.
02:34We do this at the beginning of the show and at the end of each round.
02:37Categories change places, take different boxes, and there they are.
02:40Okay, Ruth, you're our current champion.
02:41Champion X always goes first.
02:43Where would you like to place your first X in this game?
02:46I'd like to try to start with Funny Ladies' upper right hand.
02:49Funny Ladies it is.
02:51Answer this for an X.
02:52She's one of Laugh-In's most famous graduates
02:54who created the roles of Ernestine the Operator and Edith Ann.
02:58Who is she?
02:58She's Lily Tomlin.
02:59She is.
03:00Put an X in that box.
03:03And put $100 in the pot.
03:05Okay, Rick.
03:06That's the way she's been starting every time, Rick.
03:08Where would you like to place your first O?
03:10I'll go with Foreign Stars.
03:12Foreign Stars.
03:13All righty.
03:13Answer this.
03:14You'll have an O.
03:15She was considered one of the world's most beautiful women,
03:18but she never married.
03:20Name the recluse and star of such films as Anna Christie and Ninochka.
03:27Marlena Dietrich?
03:28No, Greta Garbo.
03:29Greta Garbo.
03:30No O for you.
03:31Maybe next time.
03:32Let's move the categories around on the board.
03:33Still, $100 in the pot for Ruth's first X up in the top right-hand corner.
03:38Okay, there they are.
03:39Ruth, where would you like to go with your next X, please?
03:41I'd like to try that.
03:42Center box with Bill's and Billy's.
03:44Okay, before we try that,
03:45let me point out that there are three jump-in questions and categories on the board.
03:49Islands, Poetry, and Scary Things.
03:51If you select one of those categories,
03:53we'll have a showdown between you and your opponent
03:55to see who gets a chance to answer it first.
03:57You've selected Bill's and Billy's.
03:58It's worth $200 to the pot,
04:00and I'll give you a little extra time to think about your answer
04:02because this is a harder question.
04:04This Bill and his group recorded a giant hit in the 50s called Rock Around the Clock.
04:09Ruth, number one, I want you to give me his last name.
04:12Two, give me the name of his group.
04:14Think about that.
04:19This Bill recorded a giant hit called Rock Around the Clock in the 1950s.
04:28What was his last name?
04:30Haley.
04:31Right.
04:31Give me the name of his group for the center box.
04:34The Comet.
04:34Right.
04:35Bill, Haley and the Comet.
04:36Put it up in the center box.
04:40$300 in the pot.
04:42Ruth, you got two of them up there.
04:43Rick, you don't have an O yet.
04:45What do you want to do about that?
04:46Where do you move?
04:46I'm going to have to try to block with Scary Things.
04:48All right.
04:49This is one of the jump-ins.
04:50Both of you put your hand on the buzzer.
04:52I'll ask the question.
04:53Whoever buzzed first gets a chance to answer it.
04:55If you miss it, your opponent gets a shot at it.
04:57Rick, you answer this.
04:58You'll have a successful block.
04:59Ruth, you answer it.
05:00You'll have Tic-Tac-Doe and another $400 plus a new automobile.
05:06Listen carefully.
05:08This Romanian city actually does exist.
05:12Ruth, you buzz first.
05:13What's your answer for Tic-Tac-Doe and a car?
05:15Transylvania.
05:16Right.
05:17Tic-Tac-Doe.
05:25A car.
05:33Too much.
05:35A little bit too much.
05:39I don't know how you got to CBS.
05:41You may have hitchhiked for all I know, but I know one thing.
05:43You're going to be driving away today.
05:45I don't think I could.
05:47Hey, let me repeat that question, by the way, because I didn't get to finish it, and I want
05:50to do this.
05:51This Romanian city actually does exist.
05:53That's where you buzz.
05:53And according to legend was the home of Count Dracula.
05:56The question was name it.
05:57It was Transylvania.
05:58You now have, Ruth, in cash and prizes, including the car, a total of $14,250.
06:05All right.
06:06Rick, sorry about that.
06:09It was quick.
06:09Thank you for playing our game, and good luck to you.
06:11Rick McGuff.
06:13We'll be right back to play our bonus game with Ruth right after this.
06:16Ruth, you won the car already.
06:27Let's take a look at it.
06:28Jay, will you show it to us, please?
06:29You bet, Ruth.
06:30Here it is, the all-new 1978 Chevy Chevette four-door hatchback.
06:35The new rear doors make it easy to get into the back seat, has the comfort and convenience
06:39you want in a small car.
06:40And it's furnished by Chevy Chevette.
06:43It's all yours, Ruth.
06:51It's yours.
06:52You can drive it home.
06:53Could I tell you something very quickly?
06:54Yes.
06:54The car I'm driving now has a bumper sticker on it, put there by my 16-year-old daughter
06:58last week, and it says, thank you for not laughing at this car.
07:02And that will give you an idea of the shape it's in.
07:04I can assure you nobody's going to laugh at your new automobile.
07:06No, of course not.
07:06Ruth, you've shown a lot of knowledge, and you've shown a lot of skill.
07:10Well, now a little chance and luck's involved as we go up here again.
07:14You've been lucky so far.
07:15Let's see if you can add to your winnings if you can believe it.
07:22She said, she doesn't really want to come known as the Dragon Lady.
07:28At this rate, I don't think you will.
07:30You've only found him, what, twice?
07:31Twice.
07:31Okay.
07:32Don't find him this time.
07:33You know how this works?
07:34There are nine numbers on the bonus board.
07:36Behind these numbers are four X's, four O's, and one dragon.
07:39Now, the X's and O's have been distributed, so there's only one possible way for you to
07:43find Tic-Tac-Toe.
07:45You're going to be calling out numbers.
07:47For every X or O you find, I'll give you $150.
07:49You can take the money and stop any time you like.
07:52Any time you find the dragon, what happens?
07:54Bye-bye money.
07:55Bye-bye money.
07:56You got it.
07:57But if you find the one Tic-Tac-Toe on the board, listen to what Jay Stewart will have
08:01for you, Jay.
08:02Ruth, for your summer fun, it's a sailboat.
08:05This is the Sunflower by Snark, carries two adults of four children safely, weighs only
08:0945 pounds.
08:11Safe and easily transportable, the Sunflower by Snark Products Incorporated.
08:15And you'll be in style this summer with a wardrobe of dresses from Soubrette.
08:19Lovely dress, fashionable styles, and easy care fabrics that can take you from daytime to
08:23an evening of pleasure and beauty from Soubrette.
08:26And you'll travel in style with luggage.
08:28A six-piece ensemble of Grover Starflight molded luggage.
08:32A perfect companion for care-free travel, frames are precisely fitted to seal out moisture
08:36and dust.
08:37Smart, handsome, and secure roper luggage protects.
08:40So pack your bags, because you're going on a trip for two to Nassau!
08:47That's real fly, you, and two people.
08:50That's right, a round trip from Los Angeles to Nassau for a six-day windjammer barefoot
08:53cruise to remote Caribbean islands.
08:56For the barefoot traveler with a scurve adventure.
08:58Sail the Bahamas, Virgin Islands, or West Indies with congenial shipmates, windjammer,
09:02barefoot cruises.
09:03Our summer sailing package route is worth $2,800 in prizes!
09:11Sailboat, you're already going to China.
09:13Yeah, I'm a sailboat.
09:14And now she's going to Nassau if she hits Tic-Tac-Toe.
09:17Her reaction to that, by the way, Jay, is Nassau still in the Bahamas?
09:19I don't think they've moved it yet, honey.
09:21I think it's still there.
09:22All right.
09:22See if you can find it by getting Tic-Tac-Toe.
09:24Which number would you like?
09:25Seven.
09:27Number seven.
09:28Hey, that's a good lucky number, hopefully.
09:30What's behind number seven?
09:31Is it an X?
09:31Is it an O?
09:32Or is it the dragon?
09:35Oh, no!
09:37It used to be a lucky number.
09:39What happened to number seven?
09:40They changed it on me.
09:41That means, let's see, you've won up here twice.
09:43Now you've found the dragon lady three times.
09:46That's a lot.
09:47And, of course, you didn't find the Tic-Tac-Toe.
09:49That's what you wanted for the trip to Nassau in the Bahamas.
09:51Let's take a look at the board.
09:52But where would Tic-Tac-Toe have been located?
09:54Right in the center, vertically.
09:56Three X's.
09:57However, you're not doing badly.
09:59You've won the car.
10:00Cash, prizes.
10:00It all comes to, I remind you, $14,250.
10:05Not bad, folks.
10:06You want to play again?
10:08Okay.
10:08Go take your position, and we'll meet a new player.
10:17Bruce, if you're ready, I'm ready, and we'll meet a brand new player, and Jay Stewart's
10:21going to introduce.
10:22Jay, who is it?
10:23Here she is, Wink.
10:24She lived in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
10:26Mother of a four-year-old, her interest are at the theater, reading, and music.
10:29Meet Christine Wallen.
10:30Wow.
10:37Chris, is that okay?
10:39May I call you Chris?
10:39That's better.
10:40You do have a lot of interest, don't you?
10:41Yes, I do.
10:42You?
10:43I have two Cocker Spaniels, two Parakeets, a four-year-old boy named Max, and a husband
10:49to take care of.
10:51We all have problems, my dear.
10:53Yeah.
10:54What did you do before marriage?
10:57A lot of things.
10:58The most recent was that I worked in a bank in Minneapolis.
11:00You know what Ruth's going to do when she leaves it?
11:02Spend a lot of money.
11:04She's going to start her own bank, my honey.
11:07Maybe you can go to work for her.
11:08We'll start a new game of tic-tac-toe right after this.
11:11Don't go away.
11:12You're ready?
11:16I'm ready.
11:17The audience is ready.
11:18Let's play a new game of the new tic-tac-toe.
11:20Here are the categories you'll be playing for in this game.
11:23We have sex symbols to deal with, state capitals, travel, nursery rhymes as a category, solar
11:28system, foreign words, boxing, TV cops, and military leaders.
11:33Those are the categories.
11:33Let's move them around on the board now, and then we'll start asking for your selections
11:36of where you would like to place X's and O's and possible wins a tic-tac-toe.
11:41Ruth, your turn to place your X.
11:43You're doing all right so far.
11:44Where do you start this time?
11:46I'd like to start with foreign words, bottom right.
11:49Okay, foreign words, you may, and here we go.
11:52Take a look, Ruth, at this foreign word.
11:55Porque is a word you use to ask a question in Spanish.
11:59What does it mean for an X?
12:01Y.
12:01You're right.
12:02Put an X under foreign words.
12:06$100 goes into the pot.
12:08Okay, Chris, your first time out.
12:10Where would you like to place your very first O on the board?
12:13I'll try boxing in the middle square, please.
12:15Okay, it's a little harder.
12:16I'll give you a little extra time to think about your answer before you give it to me.
12:19It's worth $200 to the pot.
12:21Since 1952, Chris, five American Olympic champions have become world heavyweight champions.
12:27I want you to name any two.
12:29Here's some extra time for you to think.
12:31Chris, boxing is the category, and the center box is a very good place to begin in this game.
12:45Since 1952, five American Olympic champions have become world heavyweight champions.
12:50Name any two.
12:52George Foreman.
12:53Right.
12:53Leon Spinks.
12:55Right.
12:55That's all you need.
13:02So we place an O in the center box.
13:04$300 in the pot.
13:05By the way, the others are Floyd Patterson, Muhammad Ali, and Joe Frazier.
13:09You named Foreman and Spinks.
13:10That's all you needed.
13:11Let's move the categories around on the board.
13:13We have 1X, 1O, and a very hot, good game going.
13:17Now, as they stop, you'll notice three darker categories on the board.
13:20They deal with military leaders, travel, and nursery rhymes.
13:23Those are what we call jump-in categories.
13:25If you select one of those, we'll have a showdown between you and your opponent
13:28to determine who gets a chance to answer the question first.
13:31Ruth, back to you.
13:32Next X, where is it going to go?
13:33I'd like to try the center bottom for sex symbols.
13:36Oh, I thought you said we're going to center box there.
13:38It's already taken.
13:38Sex symbols, center bottom.
13:40All righty.
13:40His sexual appeal was strong despite his indifference to his fans.
13:44His sexiness was evident in such films as the Maltese Falcon and the African Queen.
13:48For that X, name him, please.
13:50Humphrey Bogart?
13:51You got it.
13:52Put an X under sex symbols.
13:53Add $100 to the pot.
13:56Very good, Ruth.
13:57Chris, did all right first time out.
13:59Where does the next O go?
14:00I'll try nursery rhymes, please, in the lower left-hand corner.
14:03Okay, you're going for a block.
14:04If you answer this question correctly, you'll have a successful block.
14:08Ruth, you answer this correctly, and you'll have tic-tac-toe again,
14:10and you'll have $500 to add to your total winnings.
14:14Put your hand on the buzzer.
14:15Here comes the question.
14:17Tell me the nursery rhyme character who needed his wife to help lick the platter.
14:21Ruth, you buzz first for tic-tac-toe.
14:24Jack Spratt.
14:24You got it, and he's done it again.
14:33Ruth, that's your sixth opponent defeat.
14:36Wow.
14:37Make you feel kind of good?
14:39Yeah, and a little mean, too.
14:40Listen, you won $500 for that, so added to your winnings,
14:45you're now up to a grand total of $14,750, and you're still moving.
14:54Chris, in that game, you took a calculated risk, of course,
14:57but you had to go for that almost because you had to go for a block.
14:59You lost.
15:00However, you don't go away empty-handed.
15:02We have a couple of nice gifts for you as you leave.
15:03You're lovely.
15:04Wish you could have stayed around longer.
15:06Thank you for being with us.
15:06We'll be back with more of the new Tic-Tac-toe.
15:10Please don't go away.
15:22Ruth, you know what it means when I have this little goodie in my hand?
15:24Is that a microphone?
15:26That's a microphony, yes.
15:27Is that what it is?
15:27And that means we're going traveling.
15:29All right.
15:29To the bonus board.
15:30Okay.
15:30Come on, let's play the bonus game.
15:32Right there.
15:36You'll come in your spot.
15:39Ruth, you say she feels right at home on that position right there
15:42because you've been here several times.
15:44Look at that board.
15:45Does that ring a bell?
15:46A lot of bells, yeah.
15:47All righty.
15:48You got nine numbers there.
15:49You're looking for Tic-Tac-toe,
15:51and along the way, for every X and O you find,
15:53as long as you don't hit the dragon,
15:54you pick up $150 a shot.
15:57Pick a number.
15:58Okay.
15:58Number one.
15:59All righty.
16:00Number one.
16:00What's behind number one?
16:02As we begin, is it the X, is it the O, or is it the dragon?
16:07X for $150.
16:11The dragon is the thing you want to stay away from.
16:13You are a mean fellow.
16:15What do you want to do now?
16:15Take the $150 or keep going.
16:17No, I want to go.
16:18All right.
16:18Pick another number.
16:19Number two.
16:19She likes the looks of number two,
16:21so what do we find behind number two?
16:23Little deuce.
16:23What do we find?
16:25X.
16:26Another $150.
16:27Ruthie, you got $300 now.
16:33Hold it just a second, audience.
16:34I want to remind her, she's going for several very nice prizes.
16:38I might mention a couple.
16:39You got the sailboat you're going for.
16:41You got the wardrobe, which you said a while ago here you could use.
16:44You're going for a beautiful set of luggage.
16:46You're already going to take two trips,
16:47and you may win a Caribbean cruise.
16:50And it all comes to $2,800.
16:53Now, your next call might be the dragon
16:56and take all of that away from you.
16:58You have the option.
16:59You can stop and take the $300 or go.
17:02I've got a call.
17:03You want to go?
17:05Need I ask you, where do you want to go?
17:07Just for kicks, let's try number three.
17:09She likes the looks of number three.
17:11If there's an X behind number three,
17:13she will add to her total $3,250 to what she's already won.
17:19What's behind number three?
17:21Is it an O, is it an X for tic-tac-toe,
17:23or is it the dragon?
17:26Tic-tac-toe!
17:40Her response when I grabbed her and held her around the neck,
17:43she said, you know you're holding me up,
17:45and I appreciate that very much.
17:46That's not my job, really, here.
17:47My job is just to sort of lead you along
17:49and ask you what you want to do.
17:51It really makes you weak, no kidding, the excitement.
17:53You feel a little weak, do you?
17:54Yeah, a lot, right.
17:55You feel a little richer?
17:56A lot.
17:57What did you start to say?
17:59Forget it.
18:00Okay, let's see where the dragon was on the board.
18:02Let's reveal him.
18:02Where was he going to be?
18:04I don't know.
18:04It's fortunate that you didn't find him.
18:06There he was behind number six.
18:07You stayed away from him, picked up $450 in cash,
18:10plus all those prizes.
18:11Have you ever been to the Caribbean?
18:12Oh, yes, we were once, quite a while back,
18:14and it is lovely.
18:15Oh, then maybe you'd like to give that prize away
18:16to somebody in the audience.
18:17No, it was really nice.
18:18Oh, I see.
18:19I'd kind of like to revisit it.
18:19Okay.
18:20Would you like to play another game?
18:21I would love to.
18:22By the way, you have a grand total now
18:24in cash and prizes of $18,000.
18:29Yeah, like in three zeros.
18:32Please don't go away.
18:33We'll play another game.
18:34What a nice round number.
18:43$18,000.
18:44And she said a few minutes ago, like in three zeros?
18:47I said, yeah, like in three zeros.
18:50Ruthie, you got a big smile on your face,
18:52and by golly, I don't blame you.
18:53I'd like to be in your position.
18:54What are you going to do with the money you've won?
18:56We know you're going to be taking trips.
18:57You got luggage.
18:58You got all those goodies.
18:59You got a car.
19:00Yeah.
19:00What are you going to do with that money?
19:02I'd like to save some of it,
19:04and I'd like to share a little bit of it
19:06with my lovely three children.
19:07Mm-hmm.
19:08And I don't know about my husband.
19:09I haven't decided yet.
19:10Would you do all of us a favor?
19:13What's that?
19:13Save some for Uncle Sam, will you please?
19:15I know.
19:15Oh, yeah.
19:16He'll be around.
19:16Did you really have to say that?
19:18Let's meet a new player.
