00:08Take a risk, take a chance, take a dare, play the game of Double Dare, with the host of
00:22Double Dare, Alex DeVert.
00:30Thank you, Johnny. Thank you, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome once again to our game of knowledge and
00:34nerve, Double Dare. Just in case we get a little pressed for time later on, I want to take
00:38a moment right now to wish each and every one of you a very Merry Christmas. I hope
00:42this holiday season brings you much happiness, much joy, and much peace. And I hope the next
00:47half hour brings you many enjoyable moments. Let's go to work and introduce our players.
00:52First, here's our returning champion, Roger Hatt.
00:55Hi, Roger.
00:56How are you?
00:57I am well.
00:59Good.
01:00We're wrapping up our week, and you're not wrapping up anything yet. You're going into
01:04another match, and you've got to be feeling pretty happy about your performance.
01:08I'm feeling very happy right now.
01:09Were you a little reluctant before coming on Double Dare as to your chances?
01:13I really was. I was concerned. I thought, well, if I just went a little bit, then I won't
01:18be skunked.
01:19Okay. Well, you certainly haven't been skunked because you've got over $6,000 right now,
01:23and that's pretty good going. Let's introduce your opponent.
01:26Challenging Roger Hatt is Chuck Lowe.
01:29Hello, Chuck. Hello, Alex.
01:32When we wrapped things up on our last program, we were pressed for time, and we didn't get
01:37to hear very much about you, except that you were or are an elementary school teacher.
01:41I am an elementary school teacher. Sixth grade.
01:44What subjects?
01:45All subjects.
01:46Boys and girls?
01:47Yes, both.
01:48Which present more problems to you?
01:50Girls.
01:51Why?
01:52They're a little more flighty than boys are. The boys are interested in baseball and sports,
01:56and the girls are interested in boys.
01:57Uh-huh.
01:58What about as a discipline problem?
02:00It's about even.
02:01About even?
02:02Okay. We'll leave it at that. I'll wish you good luck and remind you and our champion,
02:07Roger Hatt, that so far, no money up on the scoreboard, so we're going to go right into
02:11our first subject, and we will start off by showing you people at home the correct answer.
02:17Here it is.
02:18And the subject is a person.
02:20Good luck, players.
02:21First clue for you.
02:22Here it is.
02:24When Governor Rockefeller gave him an orange bicycle, he replied that he'd a whole lot
02:29rather have an airplane.
02:32Clue number two.
02:33In his novelty shop, he sold Wake Up America alarm clocks and T-shirts labeled Phooey.
02:40Number three.
02:42In 1970, he walked off the Cabot Show because he felt he'd been insulted.
02:48Clue number four.
02:49Randy Newman mentions him in the song Redneck, saying,
02:53He may be a fool, but he's our fool.
02:58Clue number five.
03:00Notice how serious our contestants are.
03:02He banned mini skirts and long hair during his administration, and that's Chuck's buzzer
03:07sealing Rogers Booth.
03:08What's the answer?
03:09Lester Maddox.
03:10You're right.
03:10Okay.
03:10$50.
03:11You're out and running.
03:13Nice going.
03:13You're in the dare situation right now, Chuck.
03:15I want you to take a look at this next clue, and then we'll ask you to make a decision.
03:19He used to sing God Bless America on the state capitol steps.
03:22Two Wednesdays a month.
03:24I'll take that dare.
03:25Take the dare and show it to Roger.
03:26Let's bring Roger back in.
03:29Chuck came up with the right answer.
03:31He's leading with $50 right now, Roger.
03:33He has taken the dare.
03:34You've got five seconds to look at this clue.
03:36If you get the right answer, then it's tied.
03:42What is your answer?
03:44George Wallace.
03:45You are wrong, so we close your booth, and we give Chuck $100.
03:49You're up to $150, and it's double dare time.
03:53And double dare means exactly that, a chance to pick up twice as much money.
03:57Instead of $100, $200 if you take the double dare, and Roger does not get the answer.
04:02Let's look at the clue.
04:03His fried chicken restaurant, The Picric, made national headlines in 1964.
04:09That's the double dare clue.
04:11If you give it to Roger and he doesn't get it, another $200 for you.
04:15I'm crazy, but I'm going to try it.
04:17I don't know if that's so crazy.
04:19Let's bring Roger back in.
04:22Chuck has taken the double dare.
04:24Here's the clue for you, Roger.
04:31An answer, please.
04:33It's the governor of Georgia.
04:36Mannix.
04:36I think our buzzer beat you.
04:38I'm sorry, Roger.
04:39You didn't get it in in time.
04:41That's $200 more for Chuck, taking him to $350.
04:46Okay.
04:49Roger, a judgment call that went against you there.
04:52I'm sorry you were in the right area with the governor of Georgia,
04:54but that could have been the present governor, you know,
04:56and you didn't get it.
04:57Our buzzer cut you off.
04:58He's in the lead right now.
05:00You're trailing, so you've got your work cut out for you,
05:01and we'll see what you can do right after this commercial break.
05:11Welcome back to Double Dare.
05:12$350 for our challenger.
05:14So far, zip for the champion, Roger Half,
05:18but he has $6,350 already accumulated on Double Dare.
05:21We're going on to another subject.
05:22Here's the right answer for you to look at
05:24while I tell our contestants that the subject is a person.
05:28Clue number one to help you identify that person.
05:30To overcome his fear of public speaking,
05:33he would imagine that everyone in the audience was naked.
05:37Now, maybe I should do that.
05:39Number two.
05:41He was nicknamed Swede as a boy.
05:44Clue number three.
05:46From 1948 to 1950, he was the president of Columbia University.
05:52Clue number four.
05:53Harry S. Truman said of him,
05:55he hasn't got any backbone at all.
05:57That's Roger's buzzer.
05:59Chuck's booth is closed.
06:00What's the answer, Roger?
06:01Eisenhower.
06:01You're right.
06:02Okay.
06:04$50 for you.
06:07You can climb right back into a tie game here
06:09if you come through with a successful dare and Double Dare.
06:13You're in the dare situation right now,
06:14and here's the clue for you.
06:15At West Point, he wrenched his knee tackling Jim Thorpe.
06:20If you take the dare, show that to Chuck,
06:22and he doesn't get it, you've got $100 more.
06:24If he gets it, he's got a total of $400.
06:27What are you going to do?
06:28I'll dare you.
06:29Okay, let's bring Chuck back.
06:32Roger got the right answer.
06:34He's taken the dare.
06:35You've got five seconds.
06:37Look at this clue.
06:44Chuck?
06:45Dwight Eisenhower?
06:46You're right.
06:47Yes.
06:49On our last show,
06:51I talked about some of these subtle strategy involving our players,
06:55and I think we had an example there.
06:57Our two players have to size each other up
06:59without ever seeing the other player.
07:01And in this case, Roger came in with a right answer,
07:04and at that moment, I think,
07:06I noticed that, Chuck, you seem to have it also.
07:08And so this last clue really you didn't need, right?
07:11Okay, you've got $400 for your effort so far.
07:15Roger has $50,
07:16and we have another correct answer for you people at home.
07:19The subject this time is a thing.
07:25Clue number one.
07:28Before using it,
07:30members of the French resistance in World War II would announce,
07:33I'm going to telephone Hitler.
07:38Chuck thinks he knows the answer.
07:40The toilet?
07:41You're right.
07:44$450 for you, Chuck.
07:46You got it on the very first clue.
07:48That's good going.
07:50You stand a very good chance of being our new champion.
07:53I hope so.
07:54Okay.
07:55Dare situation for you.
07:56Take a look at clue number two.
07:59Ten large apples and a flat sponge were used
08:02in its first public demonstration.
08:05That's the dare clue.
08:06You've got a big lead right now.
08:07You can afford to gamble if you're inclined to do so.
08:10I'll take that, dare.
08:11All right.
08:12Let's bring Roger back in.
08:15Chuck got the right answer.
08:16He now has $450.
08:18He has taken the dare.
08:20And if you don't come up with a right answer,
08:22he is the new champion.
08:24He will have a total of $550.
08:26But if you get the right answer,
08:28then you'll have $100.
08:29Here is the clue for you, Roger.
08:30Five seconds.
08:37Roger?
08:38Bomb of some kind.
08:39A bomb of some kind.
08:42I'm not going to make any comment
08:43except to say if that's wrong
08:45and Chuck is the new champion with $550.
08:48Come out here, Chuck.
08:49Roger, another $50 for you.
08:51You're going away with $6,400.
08:54Congratulations.
08:54Merry Christmas.
08:55Have a happy holiday season, won't you?
08:57Chuck, congratulations to you too.
08:59New champion.
09:02Ordinarily, I don't do this,
09:03but I want to take a moment
09:04just to review some of the other clues
09:07because we didn't get a chance to see them.
09:10You were so bright on that,
09:11you got it on the very first clue.
09:14Circus fat lady, Jolly Dolly Geyer,
09:16had one especially made for her.
09:18It was designed to ease
09:20a 19th century London water shortage
09:22and originally named
09:23the valveless water waste preventer.
09:26And a biography of its inventor,
09:29Thomas Crapper,
09:29that's the man's name.
09:33These are facts, folks.
09:34I present you only with facts.
09:36A biography of the inventor
09:38was titled,
09:39Flushed with Pride.
09:41We're going to take a commercial break
09:43and we'll be back
09:44to go for $5,000 right after this.
09:48You can hear it.
09:49You can hear it.
09:52Welcome back to Double Dare.
09:53Another new champion crown,
09:54Chuck Logue.
09:55He has $550.
09:57And now, Chuck, good news.
09:59You get to try for $5,000
10:01against these gentlemen.
10:03The spoilers.
10:09Serious looking group, aren't they?
10:10Very serious.
10:11Okay, let me take a moment
10:12to tell everyone

10:19Spoiler number two
10:20is Dr. Stratton Lindenmeier.
10:23And spoiler number three
10:24is Dr. James Baker.
10:27Those are the spoilers.
10:28Let's shut them off right now.
10:30They can't hear what we are saying.
10:31They've been with us all week
10:32and they've done pretty well.
10:34They have made it very, very rough
10:36on some of our champions
10:37and they have failed a few times.
10:39Here's how you go
10:40about beating the spoilers.
10:41On this board here,
10:42we have eight clues
10:43to a person, place, or thing.
10:45Your job is to give away
10:47four of those clues
10:48to the spoilers
10:49and hope that they
10:50don't know the right answer.
10:51If you can give all four clues away
10:53and we have one spoiler,
10:54just one,
10:55who doesn't come up
10:56with the right answer,
10:57then you'll win the $5,000.
10:58It sounds simple,
10:59but sometimes it's a bit difficult.
11:01To assist you,
11:02we will give you four passes
11:04if you don't like a clue,
11:05if you think it's too easy
11:06or too hard.

11:08because there are no indication
11:09as to whether the clues
11:11are easy or hard.

15:09Thank you, spoilers.
15:11We're taking a break.
15:12We're coming right back after this.
15:14Yeah.
15:19It was the day before Christmas, but some people, like our champion Chuck Logue, was thinking far, far ahead of
15:26Christmas.
15:26He has $5,550.
15:29And what does that mean for you, Chuck?
15:31No teaching summer school.
15:32Okay.
15:32That's good news.
15:34You're going on as our champion of course.
15:36Good luck to you.
15:36Let's introduce your challenger.
15:38Our next challenger is Alan Lusher.
15:42Hello, Alan.
15:42Hello.
15:44A little startling when the doors open like that and you're suddenly confronted with all this light?
15:49I'd have to say so.
15:50Okay.
15:51What kind of work do you do?
15:52I'm a commodities broker, Alex.
15:53Commodities broker.
15:54How's business these days?
15:56The market's a little slow.
15:57It's not the season.
15:58Is that why you're on this show, to pick up some extra cash?
16:00Yeah.
16:01I have to buy some pork bellies.
16:03Buy some pork bellies.
16:04All right.
16:05Good luck to you.
16:05You're going against a very bright teacher over here.
16:08As you know, the first player to reach $500 wins the game.
16:12We're going to be showing you the clues one at a time to help you identify our subjects.
16:16And the clues get easier as we go along.
16:18To help our home audience, we show you the correct answer to start off.
16:22And here it is.
16:23The first subject, players, is a thing.
16:26A thing.
16:27Clue number one.
16:30Captain Mingod requested a longer stay in French prison to perfect his skill at it.
16:37Next clue.
16:38In the 1920s, Henry Lewis had an exceptional streak using only his nose to play.
16:43Alan has buzzed in.
16:44I'll take a chance and say billiards.
16:46Billiards.
16:46That's right.
16:47Yes.
16:47Billiards are fooled.
16:48You would have accepted either one.
16:50Alan, you're off and running.
16:51You've got $50.
16:52You are now in a dare situation.
16:55You can add $100 if you take the dare.
16:57And Chuck doesn't come up with the right answer.
16:58But first, look at the clue you have to deal with.
17:01During a championship game, players end up walking up to three miles.
17:06I'll take a chance and dare him.
17:07Okay.
17:08Let's bring Chuck back.
17:10Alan came up with the right answer, Chuck.
17:12He has taken the dare.
17:13And you now have five seconds to consider this clue.
17:23Your answer, please.
17:26Bowling or lawn bowling?
17:27Bowling is incorrect.
17:28We close you off again.
17:30We give Alan $100.
17:31He now has $150.
17:32Hey, good start for you.
17:34Nice beginning.
17:35Double dare time.
17:37We're going to look at the clue first.
17:38Okay.
17:40Variations on the game include rotation and Chicago.
17:43No, he looks like an old pool shark.
17:45Let's not try that one.
17:47All right, I'll tell him that when we bring him back.
17:49Let's bring him back.
17:51Alan has decided to stop.
17:53He's not going to give you the next clue because he figures you look like an old pool shark.
17:58The next clue was variations on the game include rotation and Chicago.
18:03Are you familiar with those games?
18:04Yes, I am.
18:05All right.
18:05Variations of pool and billiards.
18:07That was the right answer.
18:08He's leading right now, Chuck.
