11:25Joker.
11:27Saints.
11:28Joker, another triple.
11:34I'll go off the board with the American Revolution.
11:37American Revolution. A subject you probably know something about since you teach some history.
11:42All right. For $100, which would bring you to $200, the American Revolutionary Naval Hero is known for his immortal
11:48words, I have not yet begun to fight.
11:51For what? Who is it?
11:55Name the officer.
11:56John Paul Jones.
11:57Yes, right. For another $100, you go to $200.
12:00Score $250 to $200.
12:02Route 3, up next.
12:07Revolution.
12:08Saints.
12:09Anatomy.
12:10Anatomy for $50.
12:11All right, let's see if you can pick up another $50.
12:14Normally, how many ribs does the average person have?
12:18How many ribs?
12:19Yes.
12:2213 pairs.
12:24No, I'm sorry.
12:26That is not acceptable.
12:27Under the rules of the game, if your opponent can answer that question, he'll pick up your $50.
12:31Can you answer it, Ernest?
12:3312.
12:3312 pairs or 24 is right, and the game is all tied up $250 to $250.
12:38Also, it's your turn on it.
12:39First thing.
12:42Saints.
12:43American Revolution.
12:45Joker.
12:46American Revolution for $100.
12:48$100.
12:48All right, here is your question.
12:50Except for minor alterations by the Second Continental Congress, who was the author of the Declaration
12:56of Independence?
12:58Thomas Jefferson.
12:59Write for another $100, you go to $350.
13:03Score $250 to $350.
13:05Route 3.
13:09Vaudeville.
13:10Revolution.
13:11Saints.
13:13I'll take Vaudeville for $50, Jack.
13:15$50 writing on this question.
13:17In the halcyon days of Vaudeville, a New York theater was the goal of all performers, because
13:21it was the principal home of Vaudeville.
13:23For $50 more, name it.
13:25The Palace.
13:26Right, you go to $300.
13:29And now your opponent, in proper turn, is within scoring distance.
13:33He could go out this time.
13:35Good luck.
13:38Saints.
13:39Joker.
13:40Revolution.
13:43American Revolution.
13:44All right, that can't put you out.
13:46It's a $100 question, but it could get you to $450.
13:48After Benedict Arnold became commander of this New York port, he intended to betray it for
13:54a British commission and a sum of money.
13:56But the capture of John Andre uncovered the plot.
13:59Name the famous fort.
14:07Sorry, no answer?
14:08No answer.
14:09All right, if your opponent can answer this question, she'll pick up $100 and go to $400.
14:13Name the famous fort.
14:17Fort Ticonderoga.
14:18Oh, you're both going to feel very silly when you hear this.
14:21West Point.
14:22West Point.
14:24Sorry, there's no score, but it's your turn, Ruth.
14:26Go ahead and spin.
14:29Joker.
14:31Revolution.
14:32Saints.
14:33Oh, dear.
14:34I'd like to go off the board for TV Wives.
14:37TV Wives.
14:38You don't like either of the categories.
14:39It's only a $50 question, and here it is.
14:41Susan St. James stars with Rock Hudson in which television series?
14:46Macmillan and Wife.
14:46Right, for $350.
14:50Once again, it's Ernest Carr's proper turn.
14:53He could go out.
14:54Let's see what happens.
14:57Saints.
14:58Anatomy.
15:00Vaudeville.
15:00No, he can't go out.
15:02Anatomy for $50.
15:03Anatomy for $50, which would get you to $400.
15:06Those of a baby are pinkish.
15:09Those of an adult are slate-colored and mottled.
15:12And those of an elderly person are darker.
15:15For $50, what are they?
15:17Hands.
15:19No, I can't accept that according to the judges.
15:22You can pick up $50 on anatomy, Ruth, if you can give me the answer.
15:25The answer they will accept.
15:26Veins.
15:27Beg your pardon?
15:28Veins.
15:29Veins.
15:29No, the answer that is only acceptable here are lungs.
15:33Oh.
15:33Lungs.
15:35I'm sorry.
15:35Neither of you score.
15:36It's a tie ball game.
15:37$350 to $350.
15:38Spin the wheels, Ruth.
15:42Vaudeville.
15:43Vaudeville.
15:44Revolution.
15:45Vaudeville for $100, please.
15:46All right.
15:47That would get you not out.
15:48It would get you to $450.
15:50Two great dancers of Vaudeville were Bill Robinson and Ray Bolger.
15:55Bolger's nickname was Rubber Legs.
15:57For $100, what was Robinson's nickname?
16:00Bojangles.
16:00Right.
16:01For $450.
16:05Once again, your opponent could strike.
16:07We have $350.
16:08This is your third time at this, Ernest.
16:10Good luck.
16:12Saints.
16:13TV Y.
16:15Joker.
16:15Can't go out.
16:17TV Y.
16:18$400.
16:19$100.
16:20If you answer right, we'll have a tie ball game again at $450 each.
16:24William Frawley portrayed Fred Mertz on the I Love Lucy television series.
16:28But who played his wife, Ethel?
16:31Vivian Vance.
16:32Right.
16:32We've got a tie ball game.
16:34$450 to $450.
16:35Who'll win the game?
16:37Time for this.
16:38We'll have time right after these messages.
16:48It's a tie ball game.
16:49It's $450 to $450.
16:51As you know, $500 or more wins.
16:52But if you both tie, we'll get into sudden death in lightning rounds.
16:55And Ruth Freed's the champion.
16:57So, Ruth, it's your turn.
16:59You could go out, but he gets a final turn.
17:08I will take Vaudeville for $100.
17:13If you answer correctly, you'll have $550.
17:16But please remember, Ernest does get a final turn.
17:19Name the third member of the famous song, dance, and comedy act that had Clayton and Jackson as the two
17:27other members.
17:28Jimmy Durante.
17:29You're right for $550.
17:37Now what will happen?
17:38It's all up to the luck of the draw.
17:40Ernest, good luck.
17:42Give them a spin.
17:45Joker, Saints, Joker.
17:50Now you've got a decision.
17:52You could win the game with Saints and a triple.
17:54But if you don't like that category, you have to go off the board.
17:56I'll go off the board for TV Wives.
17:58TV Wives, and you want to make a pair, I assume, for $100.
18:02If you answer correctly, you'll both have $550, and we'll have to play another round.
18:07If you miss, the game is over, and Ruth Freed will be the champion for the second time.
18:12In the Thin Man series, featuring Peter Lawford, for $100 more, who played his wife?
18:20Phyllis Kirk.
18:23Right!
18:23For $100, it's all tied.
18:30All tied up, $550 to $550.
18:32Now we keep playing complete rounds until somebody breaks the deadlock, and whoever that is will be the winner.
18:38Ruth, your turn.
18:42Revolution.
18:42TV Wives, Saints.
18:45TV Wives for $50, please.
18:47That would get you to $600, and he gets another turn.
18:50In the television series, Mr. Adams and Eve, Howard Duff played the husband.
18:56For $50 more, who played his wife?
18:58Ida Lupino.
18:59Right, you've got $600.
19:04What are the wheels going to do now?
19:07Ernest is going to find out in a moment.
19:10TV Wives, Vaudeville, Saints.
19:14It has to be TV Wives.
19:16TV Wives.
19:17If you answer correctly, it'll be a tie at $600.
19:19If you miss, she is the winner with $600.
19:22Her television family included Carl Betts as her husband, and Shelly Faberis and Paul Peterson as her children.
19:30Who was she?
19:32Donna Reed.
19:32Right, it's tied up.
19:33It's a good time to do.
19:39Another round coming up.
19:41Let's see what happens if the deadlock is broken.
19:43Ruth, your spin.
19:44Okay.
19:48Anatomy.
19:48Joker.
19:50Vaudeville.
19:53I'd like Vaudeville for $100.
19:56$100, which would bring you to $700, and then he gets another shot at it.
20:00This Vaudeville clown was known for his banjo eyes.
20:05For $100 more, name him.
20:07Eddie Cantor.
20:08Right for $700.
20:14Now, what will happen?
20:15Ernest Carr, your spin.
20:20Anatomy.
20:21Joker.
20:22Joker.
20:26Let's see what strategy Ernest is going to employ.
20:30I'll try anatomy for the game.
20:31You're going to try to go the way.
20:33All right.
20:34If he answers correctly, let's hold it, audience.
20:36If he answers correctly, you'll add $150, you'll have $750, you'll be the new champion.
20:41If you miss, the winner and second-time champion will be Ruth Freed.
20:46Here's your question.
20:47Think it over carefully.
20:48The smallest type of blood vessels in the body connect the tiniest arteries with the tiniest veins.
20:54For $750 and the championship, by what name are these blood vessels known?
21:03Capillaries?
21:04You're the new champion of $750.
21:07We'll be back in just a moment to talk to the new champ and say goodbye to the outgoing champ,
21:12but first, this message.
21:17Where have you gone with your...
21:19We have a new champion and we have an outgoing champion, but Ruth, you don't go empty-handed.
21:24You've got $600 worth of prizes.
21:25Of course, the $600 you won, we dump into our jackpot.
21:28We now have $7,950 in our jackpot.
21:31Ernest, can you come back on Monday and meet the new challenger?
21:33Give us your decision as to whether you want to play or not.
21:35Can you do that?
21:37I will come back and play.
