00:00From television city in Hollywood, here's the game where knowledge is king and lady luck is queen.
00:09It's the Joker's Wild.
00:11And now here's the host of our show, Jack Berry.
00:19Thank you very much.
00:20And welcome once again to the Joker's Wild, where winning players who get $500 or more become the champion and spin for prizes.
00:26Most of you who were watching our last program know that we reintroduced a player who had appeared previously.
00:32Let's first of all reintroduce the two players who are going to play on our first game.
00:36Johnny, who are they?
00:37Our first player, Jack, is originally from Colorado.
00:39Now she's studying in California, Madeline Cowan.
00:44And her opponent is a restaurant owner and the father of three girls, John McDonough.
00:52Welcome, Madeline. Nice to have you back with us.
00:54Our time ran out before we got a chance to play the game.
00:56We're going to do it briefly in just a moment or so.
00:58John McDonough, some people may not have been watching yesterday.
01:01You are a repeat visitor on the show because we gave you a question a number of weeks ago about Italy,
01:09the answer to which what we expected would be Florence.
01:12You gave us the answer Venice.
01:13Turned out that I called you wrong, but in our researching, we found out that your answer was just as good as ours.
01:18So after many, many people had written and we discovered ourselves, you were right, we invited you back and you were playing again.
01:24At the time that we called you out on our show, you had won two games and you were going for your third.
01:30So let me repeat that in this game, if you should win, you would, because you've already won two games, break the jackpot.
01:37You would take home, in addition to all the prizes you won several weeks ago, you would take home $2,500 in our jackpot.
01:43And in addition, you would ride home with this elegant gift.
01:48B3 Vega, the little car that does everything well, rides comfortably, corners, flat, and steers easily.
01:53Vega from Chevrolet, building a better way to see the USA.
02:00John, you're about ready to do it?
02:02Yes, sir.
02:03Madeline, okay, compose yourselves for just one minute.
02:06We shall start this game, maybe have another jackpot winner, who knows, but first we have these words.
02:10And now the game between Madeline Cowan and our repeat visitor, John McDonough, going for the jackpot.
02:21Here are the categories which we will be using.
02:24They are revolutions, San Francisco, upset victories, types of shelter, and weddings.
02:32Your first spin, Madeline.
02:33Good luck.
02:34Upset victories, weddings, three different categories, worth $50 each.
02:44Oh, well, since I'm single, I'll take weddings.
02:47Well, I certainly can't fault your logic.
02:51Here's the question.
02:52The last White House wedding was that of President Nixon's eldest daughter.
02:57What is her married name now?
03:00Cox.
03:00That's right, for $50.
03:01Very good.
03:02John McDonough, you are up here trying to break that jackpot because you've won two games previously.
03:10Let's see how good your luck is.
03:12Spin.
03:14Weddings, Joker, types of shelter.
03:18I'll take the types of shelter for $100.
03:20$100 question.
03:21Here it is.
03:22This type of co-op apartment building contains individually owned units.
03:27It has become popular in the past decade.
03:29What name is given such jointly owned types of shelter?
03:33Condominium.
03:34Right for $100.
03:38Score, 50 to 100, with John McDonough on the march to break the jackpot.
03:43All right.
03:43Madeline Cowan.
03:46Joker.
03:47San Francisco, weddings.
03:49I think I'll stick with weddings.
03:52All right.
03:53$100 question this time.
03:55An American millionaire was married 13 times to 11 different women.
04:00His shortest marriage lasted only 34 minutes.
04:04For $100, name this oft-married millionaire.
04:09Hunt.
04:10No, I'm sorry.
04:11That's not right.
04:12Big break here for John McDonough.
04:14Can you tell me his name for $100?
04:15Tommy Manville.
04:16That's right.
04:17You go to $200.
04:20And you also pick up a spin.
04:24Weddings.
04:25Revolution.
04:26Individual questions all worth $50.
04:29Revolutions for $50, Jack.
04:30Okay.
04:31Inventions and factories brought farm workers into the urban centers during the 18th and 19th centuries in England.
04:37What is the name given that period?
04:40The Industrial Revolution.
04:41Right.
04:42You go to $250.
04:42And so the champion, John McDonough, inching very close to breaking the jackpot again.
04:49It's your spin, Madeline Cowan.
04:54Revolution.
04:54Joker.
04:55And a triple.
05:01I'm going to take revolutions.
05:02All right.
05:03It's a $200 question.
05:04This revolution was sometimes known as the gladiators' war and ended in the crucifixion of 6,000 slaves.
05:13For $200, which would bring you to $250, name the gladiator slave who led the revolution.
05:20Spartacus.
05:21Right.
05:21You go to $250.
05:24John McDonough.
05:25Upset victory.
05:29San Francisco, all single questions.
05:32I'll stick with revolutions for $50, Jack.
05:34All right.
05:35These islands conducted a revolution against the United States from 1899 through 1901, led by Aguinaldo.
05:43For $50, where was this early 20th century revolution?
05:47The Philippines.
05:48Correct.
05:49You go to $300.
05:51And even closer to your $500 mark.
05:54All right.
05:54Your spin, Madeline.
05:55We're getting close to a victory here.
05:57Joker.
05:59Weddings, types of shelter.
06:03I think I better go with types of shelter.
06:06All right.
06:07What is the name given to the house provided by a parish or congregation for its pastor's use?
06:15Uh, the rectory.
06:19Right.
06:20Your turn is up to the house.
06:23John McDonough.
06:26Revolution.
06:27Types of shelter.
06:28And a pair.
06:29Types of shelter for $100, Jack.
06:30This would bring you up to $400.
06:32Not quite enough to break the jackpot, but getting closer.
06:35The basic meaning of this word means sheltered place.
06:38It is a type of shelter associated with the Alps.
06:41It is characterized by undisguised structural beams and overhanging roof.
06:46For $100, what is this Swiss-type shelter?
06:50Shelley.
06:50Right.
06:51For $400.
06:55Now we have a very tight game.
06:57$350 to $400.
06:58Anybody could win it.
06:59Madeline.
07:02Joker.
07:03Joker.
07:04Weddings.
07:05I'll try weddings.
07:11If you answer this correctly, it's a $200 question.
07:13You'll be at $550.
07:15Please remember, though, John McDonough does get one final turn.
07:19If you miss this question, and if he answers it, he will break the jackpot and take home $2,500 in the jackpot plus the Chevy Vega.
07:28Here is the question.
07:28In 1969, Tiny Tim tiptoed through the tulips and down the wedding aisle with this gal.
07:38For $550, name her.
07:41Miss Vicki.
07:42Right.
07:42For $550.
07:48All right, John McDonough, the chips are down now.
07:51If you can pull a triple and answer it, you would beat her and break the jackpot.
07:55If you pull three Jokers and answer one question, you would beat her and break the jackpot.
08:00Anything short of that, she will have beaten you, and she will go on to become the new champion.
08:06Everybody, let's watch and see what John does.
08:11Joker.
08:12Weddings.
08:13No.
08:14He can't do it.
08:15Ladies and gentlemen, the new champion is Madeline Powers.
08:21In just a minute, Madeline Cowan, we'll give you a chance to spin for prizes.
08:28John McDonough, we are very sorry.
08:30Just to refresh our memory, it's been so long ago when you were on the program, name some
08:35of the prizes that you won at that time.
08:37I won the organ, the trip to Las Vegas, the television set, the movie outfit, and it's
08:45still coming.
08:46It's still coming.
08:47Every day is like Christmas.
08:48Isn't that nice?
08:49So you don't feel too badly about your second visit?
08:51Not at all, Jack.
08:51I'm well ahead of it.
08:52Well, I'm sorry that it caused you the inconvenience, because your answer was right in the original
08:57program.
08:58We're sorry also that you couldn't break the jackpot now, but we are delighted that you
09:01have taken home so many nice prizes.
09:03A delightful gentleman, John McDonough.
09:05Goodbye, John.
09:05We'll be spinning for prizes for the new champion after these words.
09:15Madeline Cowan, who is allergic to pepper but not to winning games, is the new champion.
09:19She has $550, and since you're the champion now, you get a chance to spin for prizes.
09:23Three jokers get you a prize.
09:25Every time a devil comes up, you lose.
09:26Johnny, what's the first prize for which you'll be spinning?
09:28Jack, it's year-round cooking on a Charm Glow gas grill.
09:32Real barbecue flavor, instant flame that needs no starter fluids and leaves no ashes.
09:35Charm Glow products, Antioch Illinois.
09:38Three jokers gets it for you, a devil loses it.
09:40Spin and good luck.
09:43Joker, Joker, Joker.
09:45You have won yourself a beautiful prize, and now let's see what the second prize is for
09:52which you'll have to take a risk.
09:54Madeline, take your best shot with this set of custom-fit golf clubs, four woods, eight
09:58irons, plus a matching wedge and sand wedge, the clubs designed with you in mind.
10:02You'll also receive a step-down vinyl bag and four matching head covers, which you're
10:06sure will come in handy as we fly you to the Tiffany of Las Vegas, the Tropicana Hotel and
10:12Country Club, for a fun-filled week of entertainment and fun.
10:15Now it's up to you.
10:16Do you want to quit with your first prize, or do you want to go on and try for both of
10:20them?
10:24I'll gamble.
10:26You'll what?
10:26I'll gamble.
10:27Las Vegas, of course.
10:28You'll gamble.
10:29Go ahead and spin them.
10:29Let's see what happens.
10:30You have a joker, a joker, a joker.
10:37People in the audience sounded more wounded than you.
10:40I'm sorry you don't win any of the prizes, but you are the champion, and you may go on if
10:45you wish.
10:45If you go on and lose the next game, you would, of course, lose the $550.
10:49But if you should win two more games, you would break the jackpot.
10:52In the jackpot, we still have $2,500.
10:54Now let me explain so I don't get a thousand letters about it.
10:58John had no money when he came.
11:00The thousand dollars he lost six weeks ago already went in the jackpot.
11:02So in our jackpot right now still is $2,500.
11:06That would be yours if you win two more games.
11:08You would also win the beautiful Chevy Vega worth close to $2,400.
11:13It's up to you.
11:14Do you quit with your $550 or take a risk and try to break the jackpot?
11:17She's looking at somebody out there.
11:22What do you think?
11:23What are you going to do?
11:24I'm just a poor teacher going to school this year.
11:26I'm going to quit.
11:27You're quitting with your outfits.
11:30The poor teacher is at risk by $550.
11:34We're delighted to have had you on the program with us.
11:36Thank you very much.
11:37We hope you enjoy spending the $550.
11:39Let's say goodbye to Madeline Cowan.
11:40Goodbye, Madeline.
11:46I have a feeling that Madeline felt she might be stretching.
11:48I look just a little bit too far if she played one more game.
11:52So we need two brand new players.
11:55Johnny, would you be good enough to tell us who they are, please?
11:57Yes, I will, Jack.
11:58Our next player has studied at nine universities.
12:02Here is Debbie Fultz.
12:04And the opponent was born and raised in Shelby, North Carolina.
12:10Here is Logan Slagle.
12:13Hi, players.
12:14Nice to have you with us on the show.
12:16Debbie Fultz, you've studied at nine universities.
12:19Uh-huh.
12:20How come?
12:21Well, I was married when I was 18, and I just finished two years of college,
12:24and I'm finally about to graduate after moving around an awful lot.
12:28You mean you've been traveling around the country?
12:30Mostly around California.
12:31And going to different schools?
12:33Different schools.
12:33Also, you should have seen my transcripts.
12:36Is that what your husband looked at?
12:38Is that why you married?
12:38You looked at your transcripts?
12:40That's what you have to send to a new university when you enter.
12:44Yes, I know.
12:44Well, I certainly hope you will graduate this time,
12:47and that you will be very proud of yourself, which indeed you should be.
12:50Logan Slagle, you were raised in Shelby, North Carolina?
12:54Yes, sir.
12:55And you're living out in California now?
12:57Yes.
12:57What do you do, Logan?
12:58I'm a student at UCLA.
13:00What are you studying?
13:01English.
13:02Uh-huh.
13:02And pre-med studies.
13:03Pre-med.
13:04What kind of a doctor do you want to be?
13:05A psychologist.
13:07Very good.
13:07Let's...
13:08Yes?
13:09And what?
13:09And if I don't go into that, criticism with English.
13:13Oh.
13:13Would you like to say a few words of criticism about our program as long as you're here?
13:17Oh, no.
13:17Not yet.
13:18Oh, after you lose, right?
13:20Mm-hmm.
13:20Perhaps you will win.
13:21Who knows?
13:22Let's look at the categories that we are going to be using.
13:24They are Chicago, movie remakes, former occupations, fishing, and unsolved mysteries.
13:32Debbie Foles, you may go first.
13:34Spin and good luck.
13:37Joker, former occupations, movie remakes.
13:41I will try movie remakes for...
13:44Okay, here is the question for $100.
13:45Wallace Beery and Jackie Cooper starred together in the 1935 version of this Stevenson classic.
13:52Robert Newton and Bobby Driscoll played in the 1950 remake.
13:56Name the film.
13:57Treasure Island.
13:58Right, for $100.
14:01Right, for $100.
14:05Unsolved mysteries, occupations, all single categories, and fishing.
14:10Okay, I think I'll take former occupations for $50.
14:13He was a former barber before becoming one of America's most popular singing stars.
14:18His hits include Catch a Falling Star and It's Impossible.
14:21Name him.
14:24Al Martino.
14:26No, I'm sorry, that's not right.
14:27You'll pick up $50, Debbie.
14:28Can you tell me?
14:29Uh, Perry Como.
14:30Right, you go to $150.
14:33Score at the end of the round, $150 to $100, and you pick up a spin, Debbie.
14:38Fishing, Joker, Chicago.
14:41Ah, Chicago.
14:43Okay.
14:44On which of the great lakes does Chicago rest?
14:48Lake Michigan.
14:49Correct, you go to $250.
14:52All right, go to this later.
14:56Chicago, fishing, Chicago.
14:59Uh, Chicago.
15:00Okay.
15:01The world's busiest airport is located in Chicago.
15:04Name it.
15:05O'Hare.
15:05That's right, you go to $100.
15:06Score at $250 to $100, Debbie.
15:09Former occupation, movie remakes and a pair of movie remakes.
15:15Movie remakes.
15:16$100 question.
15:17Lon Chaney, Charles Lawton, and Anthony Quinn all performed the central character in versions
15:22of this Victor Hugo story.
15:24The remakes all had the same title as the original.
15:27Name it.
15:27Les Miserables.
15:28No, that's not right.
15:29You'll pick up $100, Logan, if you can give me the answer.
15:33Phantom of the Opera.
15:34That's wrong, too.
15:35Hunchback of Notre Dame.
15:36It is your spin, Logan.
15:37Movie remakes.
15:41Joker, former occupation.
15:43Movie remakes.
15:45Okay.
15:45Movie roommates.
15:47That's wishful thinking.
15:49Here you go.
15:50In 1937, Janet Gaynor and Frederick March starred in A Star is Born.
15:55In 1954, the movie was remade with Judy Garland in Janet Gaynor's role.
16:00Who performed the Frederick March role in the remake?
16:03Fred Astaire.
16:04No.
16:05You can pick up $100 if you can tell me, Debbie.
16:07James Mason.
16:07That's right.
16:08You go to $350.
16:10Score 350 to 100.
16:12You'll finish the game after this message.
16:17Score 350 to 100.
16:19The lady leading.
16:20The categories are Chicago, movie remakes, former occupations, fishing, and unsolved mysteries.
16:26Your spin again, Debbie Fultz.
16:28Let's see what you get.
16:30Fishing, movie remakes, unsolved mysteries.
16:33All different categories.
16:35Oh, movie remakes for 50.
16:36Okay.
16:37That's getting a big play here.
16:39Johanna Spirey's S-P-Y-R-I's classic story was made in 1937, starring the most famous child star of her day.
16:48Jennifer Edwards acted the role in the 1971 remake.
16:51What is the title of both these films?
16:53Heidi.
16:54Heidi is right.
16:54You go to $400.
16:55All right, Logan.
17:00Chicago.
17:01Fishing.
17:02Unsolved mysteries.
17:05Fishing for 50.
17:06Fishing is the question.
17:08A wicker basket for catching fish has a specific name.
17:13What is the term?
17:18Fishing box.
17:20A fishing box?
17:21No, that's not right.
17:22Do you know for $50 what it's called?
17:24Is it a creel?
17:25A creel is right.
17:26You go to $450.
17:29$450 to $100.
17:31And your spin, Debbie.
17:35Occupations.
17:35Joker, Chicago.
17:38Let me try former occupations.
17:40All right, it's a $100 question.
17:41If you answer right, you'll have $550.
17:43That'll be enough to win, but your opponent does get one last spin.
17:48He only went to school for three months of his life
17:51and began his career as a newsboy and telegraph operator,
17:54but he became the greatest single inventor this country has ever produced.
17:58For $550, name him.
18:01Edison?
18:01Right, for $550.
18:08All right, Logan Slagle.
18:10As you know, you are so far behind now,
18:12there is only one way you could catch her and beat her.
18:14If you should spin three jokers and answer one question,
18:17you'd be the new champion.
18:19If you don't do that, she has won the game with $550.
18:22Hold your breath.
18:24Take a spin.
18:25Good luck.
18:27Nope.
18:28It's all over, and Debbie Foles is the champion.
18:36Congratulations, Debbie.
18:37You just won $550 in the championship.
18:40Let's all say goodbye with some nice consolation prizes to Logan Slagle.
18:43Goodbye, Logan.
18:44Logan has left,
18:49and remaining with us is Debbie Foles, the champion.
18:53Debbie, as you know,
18:54every winner gets a chance to spin for prizes.
18:56Whenever three jokers come up, you win a prize.
18:58If ever a devil comes up, you lose a prize.
19:00Johnny, would you be good enough to tell me
19:02what's the first prize she's spinning for?
19:03We'll do it.
19:04Jack, Sears, Lady Kenmore Dishwasher,
19:07the Freedom Maker.
19:08It means you're free from scraping, free from rinsing.
19:10Sears, Lady Kenmore Dishwasher,
19:12the Freedom Maker.
19:13That's yours for three jokers.
19:15Let's see how you do.
19:18Joker, Joker, Joker.
19:22You've got one prize.
19:23What's prize number two, Johnny?

19:43and Compton's Golden 50th Anniversary Edition encyclopedia,
19:47new leadership in the field of learning.
19:49Okay, you have one prize.
19:51Do you want to stop or do you want to go for both of them?
19:52What do you say?
19:53Go, go, go.
19:54You want to go to Hawaii.
19:54Give them a look.
19:57Joker, Joker, Joker.
20:02He's got three, two prizes.
20:04Here's the third one coming up right now.
20:05Johnny, what is it?
20:06We will fly you to Hawaii for a week's stay
20:09at the Alamoana Hotel at the entrance to Waikiki.
