00:01From television city in Hollywood, here's the game where knowledge is king and lady luck is queen.
00:07It's The Joker's Wild.
00:10Now here's the host of our show, Jack Perry.
00:23You're very kind.
00:24Thank you very much and I'm most glad you're welcome once again to The Joker's Wild.
00:27On our last program here, if you recall, we had a young gentleman who broke The Joker's jackpot, won $10
00:32,450 and now is going to try to forge ahead and break jackpot number two.
00:38Johnny, would you reintroduce the jackpot winner and the challenger in the next game?
00:42That I will, Jack.
00:43Our current champion is a 19-year-old student who intends to use his winnings to pay his tuition, Paul
00:50Prezioso.
00:53And his opponent is married.
00:56She still uses her maiden name.
00:58Here is Martha Schaefer.
01:03Ladies, nice to have you both back with us on the program.
01:05Paul Prezioso.
01:07On the last program, we found out something about you.
01:10We found out that you want to be a police chief, that you are 19 years old, and that you
01:15are studying here at UCLA, but your parents live in Connecticut, correct?
01:18That's right.
01:19And on the program, you made your parents very proud by breaking the jackpot and winning $10,450.
01:24I made myself pretty proud, too.
01:27Well, the audience was proud of you, too, and you are now, of course, that money is yours.
01:31No one can take it away from you.
01:32And now you go on to try to break jackpot number two.
01:34Your opponent is Martha Schaefer.
01:36Martha, you still use your maiden name even though you're married.
01:39Why is that?
01:40Well, I grew up with it, and I don't think it's such a bad name, and I liked it.
01:46It just seemed kind of peculiar to all of a sudden have to be somebody else.
01:50And my husband, well, you know, my husband didn't mind.
01:53He thought that was okay, so we're still married, you know.
01:57How does he introduce you to other people?
01:59What does he call you?
02:00Oh, no, I'm Charles McKinley, and this is my wife, Martha Schaefer.
02:05And they look, and they think, oh, poor boy, you know.
02:09Well, it's an interesting, an interesting way to handle the situation.
02:12Yeah.
02:13Well, he was called Mr. Schaefer once, and that really threw him.
02:16Oh, I'm sure he loved that.
02:17Well, if you're happy, we're happy.
02:19And now let's get on with our game.
02:20Players, as I show you the five categories we're about to use.
02:23They are movie theme songs, fictional villains, civil rights leaders, famous Janes, and photography.
02:29Our jackpot winner goes first, trying to break jackpot number two, spin and good luck, Paul.
02:33Well, Joker, movie theme songs and fictional villains.
02:38I'll take fictional villains for $100.
02:41One of Batman's returning villains was portrayed by Julie Newmar in the Batman television series.
02:46What was that character's name?
02:48Catwoman.
02:48That's right, for $100, you have to do a good start.
02:52All right, I'm happy to shake it.
02:54Good luck.
02:56Joker, Joker, civil rights leaders.
02:59It's a triple, very good.
03:03I'll stay with civil rights leaders for $200.

04:56Could you repeat that again?
04:57Governor Ross Barnett of Mississippi clashed with this civil rights leader over the young man's right to enter the university
05:02in 1962.
05:03Tell us the last name of this civil rights figure.

05:08No, that's not right.
05:08$50 for you if you can tell me, Jim.

05:44No, not correct.
05:45You'll get $100 here if you can tell me, Martha.
05:47Summer of 42?
05:48That's the one.
05:49You go to $400.
05:52And it's your spin.
05:56Movie theme songs, photography, and a Joker.
05:59Movie theme songs for...
06:00If you can answer this question correctly, since you have $400, you'll be at $500, and you will become the
06:06new champion of the Joker's Wild.
06:08We'll play a song from a film starring Robert Preston.
06:11You tell us the title of the song, and you'll become the champion.
06:14Listen carefully.
06:27For $500 in the championship, can you name the song?
06:31Let's see.
06:3176 trombones.
06:32You are the new champion of the Joker's Wild.
06:43Congratulations, Martha Schaefer.
06:45You've won $500.
06:46In a moment, we'll give you a chance to spin from prizes.
06:48Well, Paul, you broke jackpot number one, but you ran into tough slutting here for jackpot number two.
06:52At any rate, you're really a remarkable young man.
06:56At your tender age, you may be the youngest champion we've ever had on the program.
06:59I believe you are.
07:00And we hope that you will have fun.
07:02You do have a license to drive the car, don't you?
07:04I do.
07:05You do take home with you the lovely automobile, all to get told $10,450 in cash and prizes.
07:11Other than your college tuition, do you have some plans for ways to spend that money?
07:14Not yet, but I'll find some way.
07:17You're sure you can find a way?
07:19I'm sure.
07:19We hope that whatever way you find to spend it, that you will enjoy it, that you will get your
07:23wish of becoming a chief of police in some small town.
07:26And most of all, thank you for being a guest on the program.
07:28Good luck and best wishes to you, Paul Preciosa.
07:38And so, no one as yet has been able to break jackpot number two.
07:42Many people, as you know, have broken jackpot number one and won amounts from $10,000, $12,000, $15,000
07:46up to $17,000.
07:47No one as yet has broken a second jackpot.
07:50Maybe Martha Schaefer will be the one to do it.
07:51Before you do that, though, Martha, you, as you know, get a chance to spin for prizes now.
07:55Every time three jokers comes up, we've changed the wheels, and up there are jokers and devils.
07:58When three jokers come up, you win a prize.
08:00If a devil comes up, you lose.
08:01Johnny, what's the first prize you could win?
08:03Jack, it's a complete set of the fabulous Saladmaster heavyweight three-ply stainless steel cookware.
08:08Saladmaster features waterless food preparation with the exclusive vapor valve for automatic cooking convenience.
08:13That's yours for three jokers spinning good luck.
08:16You have a joker, a joker, and it's yours.
08:20You have a joker.
08:23The cookware is yours.
08:24From here on in, you take a risk.
08:25What is prize number two?
08:27It's a weekend in Avalon.
08:29We'll fly two of you to sunny Catalina Island, one of the last retreats on the American buffalo.
08:34Enjoy skin diving in the beautiful blue waters of Avalon Bay with these masks, snorkels, and swim fins.
08:39Have fun in this enchanting vacation hideaway, Catalina Island.
08:43All right, now, do you want to stop you with the first prize or risk it and go for both
08:46of them?
08:46I'll risk it.
08:47Okay, let's see.
08:48Go ahead and spin.
08:49You have a joker and a joker, and you've got the trip to Catalina.
08:55Now you've got a big decision coming up about prize number three.
08:58What is it, Johnny?
08:59A collection of the finest bed linens.
09:02You'll find sleep a beautiful experience on luxury sheets and pillowcases of stretched nylon or shimmering satin in a range
09:08of colors that would put the rainbow to shame, which will come in handy with the Montezuma Collection from Broyhill's
09:14Lenore House Division.
09:15A luxurious double bedroom inspired by Spanish and South American designs from Broyhill Furniture Industries, Lenore, North Carolina.
09:24Now, what do you want to do?
09:25Do you want to quit with what you have or try to win all that fun?
09:32I think I'll stop with what I have.
09:34You want to stay with what you have?
09:35Yeah, I think I'll stay with what I've got.
09:36All right, you don't want to take the risk?
09:38No.
09:38Okay, fine, you're entitled to do that.
09:40Those prizes are yours.
09:42They total about $600, and no one will ever take them away from you.
09:45Now, whether you continue on the program or not is something we'll find out, but first, a couple of words
09:48for the people at home.
09:49Are you a.m. Eastern?
09:52Martha Schaefer's the champ, and she has a decision to make now.
09:54Now, if you go on and you lose the next game, the $500 you lose, of course, would be put
09:58into our jackpot.
09:58Somebody would win it, but not you.
10:00However, if you go on and win the next two games, you'd break the jackpot and take home in cash,
10:04$2,500 extra, plus this lovely gift.
10:08It's the 73 Nova, the basic car, rides comfortably and corners flat.
10:13Nova for 73 from Chevrolet.
10:19And so the choice becomes yours, Martha Schaefer, to quit now or do you go ahead?
10:24What do you do?
10:28I'll go ahead.
10:30I'll go ahead.
10:31You want to go ahead?
10:32I'll go ahead.
10:33The lady says she wants to go ahead.
10:37And go ahead, she will.
10:39Risk your $500 to try to break that much-vaunted jackpot.
10:43Johnny, tell us who will be opposing her.
10:45I will, Jack.
10:46Our next player is a great fan of the Baltimore Colts.
10:50Let's welcome Stan Sims.
10:55Hi, Stan.
10:56Nice to have you.
10:57I understand that you no longer are a fan of the Baltimore Colts, but you used to be.
11:00That's right.
11:01They got rid of Johnny United, so I put them down.
11:07What do you do, Stan?
11:08I'm a postal clerk at Los Angeles Post Office.
11:11You're a married man?
11:12Married and have two little daughters.
11:16Very nice.
11:16Delighted to have you with us here on the program.

13:21Viking ship to the spirit of St. Louis.
13:23Name it.
13:26The museum, I mean.
13:28The Eisenhower Museum.
13:29No, that's not the one.
13:30$100 for you if you can name it, Martha.
13:32Can you repeat it?
13:33I'm sorry.
13:34Do I really have to?
13:36Yeah.
13:36Huh?
13:37It's a museum and includes everything from a Viking ship to the spirit of St. Louis.
13:41And I'd ask you to name it.
13:42It's established by a congressional act.
13:44It's the greatest in the world.
13:45I can only think of the Smithsonian.
13:47What is your answer, though?
13:48The Smithsonian Institute.
13:49That's right.
13:49For $100.
13:50Very good.
13:51$200 to $100 to score.

15:57And so Martha Schaefer McKinley has won herself $1,000 in cash, and in just a moment she'll
16:02get a chance to spin for prizes again.
16:04Stan, I'm sorry you couldn't win, too, but there will be some consolation prizes for you.
16:07Thank you for being a nice guest.
16:08Let's say goodbye to Stan Sims.
16:10Goodbye, Stan.
16:12We'll be spinning for prizes for the champion right after these words.
16:18Before we give Martha a chance to spin for prizes, I'd like to call your attention to
16:21the fact that two brand new and very exciting game shows will debut here on CBS on Monday,
16:26March 26th.
16:27Each morning following our show, The Joke is Wild, be sure to watch for the $10,000 Pyramid,
16:31a very exciting show.
16:32And every afternoon, tune in for Hollywood's Talking.
16:35Remember, that's the $10,000 Pyramid following our show, and each afternoon with some fantastic
16:40guest stars, Hollywood's Talking.
16:42And that's all beginning Monday, March 26th, here on CBS.
16:46All right, Martha Schaefer, you've won yourself her second game, and once again you can spin
16:50for prizes.
16:51What's the first prize she could be winning this time, Johnny?
16:53Well, Jack, it's from Michael C. Fina Company, New York Silversmiths.
16:57It's a seven-piece silver-plated tea and coffee set.
17:00Fina means the finest in silverware.
17:02That's yours for three Jokers.
17:03Spin it.
17:03Let's see what you get.
17:05You have a joker, a joker, oh, the devil did you in.
17:12I'm very, very sorry.
17:13You don't win any prizes, but now you have to make a decision.
17:16You have $600 in prizes from the previous game, those are yours, nobody will ever take
17:20them away from you, and you have $1,000 in cash.
17:22If you go on and you lose the next game, we take your $1,000 and put it into the
17:26jackpot
17:26so somebody else could win it.
17:27But if you could break this next game and win it, you would take home $2,500 in cash
17:33and, in addition, the Chevy Nova, which is worth $2,615.
17:37Up to you right now.
17:39Do you quit or do you go on?
17:41What do you do?
17:48She's looking for guidance from the audience.
17:51What do you want to do, Martha?
17:52Mr. McKinley said I could go ahead.
17:54I beg your pardon?
17:54Mr. McKinley said I could go ahead.
17:56Oh, Mr. McKinley is out there, and he said go ahead.
17:58That's her husband.
17:59Very good.
18:02Mr. McKinley has given the word to Martha Schaefer, and Martha Schaefer may go ahead,
18:07and so she will, and the last third and critical game to break jackpot number one.
18:11Of course, as you know, she then will be entitled to go on and play some more.
18:13Let's find out who will try to stop her.
18:15Johnny?
18:16Okay, Jack, our next player was born in Bloomington, Illinois, and raised in Wilton, Connecticut.
18:20Here is Stephen Thompson.
18:25Hi, Steve.
18:25How are you?
18:26Fine.
18:27You a good man?
18:28Yes, I am.
18:28And is your wife a working lady?
18:30Yes, she is.
18:31What does she do?
18:32She translates and abstracts scientific articles for an index.
18:36She does?
18:37Right.
18:40Doesn't she have to speak a lot of languages to do that?
18:42She sure does.
18:43She speaks eight.
18:45How many do you speak?
18:46Just two.
18:47Hers and mine.
18:50Very good.
18:51Delighted to have you with us here on the program, Stephen.
18:53In the game about to face both of you, here are the categories which we will be using.
18:57They are British stars, composers, famous residences, great events, and slang.
19:03This is a critical game for you, Martha.
19:05You could break the jackpot if you win this one.
19:06Play very carefully.
19:07Spin and good luck.
19:11British stars, great events, composers.
19:15I think I'll take great events.
19:18Okay.
19:20Appearing in the heavens last in 1910, it will be heralded as another great event when seen again in 1985.
19:28Name it.
19:29Haley's Comet.
19:29Right for $50.
19:32Yes, please, Stephen.
19:33First thing, good luck.
19:36Composers.
