00:05Take a risk, take a chance, take a dare, play the game of Double Dare, with the host of
00:20Double Dare, Alex Chabot!
00:30Oh, thank you very much.
00:33And welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to Double Dare.
00:35This is a brand new game that has us all very excited.
00:38We like it, and we hope you wind up liking it just as much.
00:42Very briefly, let me say that Double Dare is a game of knowledge and nerve, and you're
00:46going to find out in a few moments exactly what I mean when I say that, right after we
00:50introduce our contestants.
00:51So let's go over and meet the players, shall we?
00:53Alex, here's challenger number one, Jana Klutzman!
00:58Hello, Jana.
00:59Hi.
00:59Welcome to the program.
01:01You have the honor of being the very first contestant introduced on Double Dare, so please
01:06tell me a little bit about yourself.
01:07Okay.
01:08I'm a part-time medical stenographer and a part-time songwriter-singer, and I'm married
01:15to a clown.
01:16Married to a clown?
01:17A professional clown or an amateur clown?
01:20Well, actually, he's a law school, but he does clown shows for children's parties.
01:23Okay.
01:24I hope you feel very serious about what you're about to undertake on Double Dare.
01:28Good luck to you.
01:29Let's say hello to your opponent.
01:31Challenging Jana Klutzman is Barry Sacks.
01:38We have just learned a few important facts about your opponent, so perhaps you can clue us
01:43in as to your background and your family secrets, if you will.
01:48Okay.
01:49I'm a deputy district attorney for Los Angeles County.
01:51I'm married.
01:52I have two small, wonderful children.
01:54In my spare time, I collect American Indian art, and I'm a volunteer big brother.
01:58Oh, well, you're busy in a lot of areas.
02:01Okay.
02:01That will help you on Double Dare.
02:02Good luck to you.
02:03Let me review some of the rules on our show.
02:07We present clues to famous people, places, and things for our contestants, and we present
02:13those clues one at a time.
02:15The clues get easier as we go along.
02:17The first player to come up with the correct answer wins $50 and the right to make a dare.
02:22So, players, are you ready?
02:23Ready.
02:23Good.
02:24Then we will show our home audience the correct answer, and I will tell you, contestants, that
02:29the first subject is a person.
02:32Good luck to you both.
02:33Here we go.
02:33Clue number one.
02:36He once stood trial for the murder of a native marauder at a jungle camp where he was employed.
02:43Next clue.
02:45His first Hollywood job was as a corpse in the 1935 Perry Mason film The Case of the Curious
02:52Bride.
02:55Clue number three.
02:57Jack Benny said this actor had the unique distinction of being the only man mentioned
03:02in both Who's Who and the Kinsey Report.
03:06Let's go on.
03:09Charged with rape, he said, I was terrified until I saw the girl.
03:14She was so ugly I knew I couldn't have done it.
03:16And that was Jenna's ringing in, and she has sealed Barry's booth.
03:23He cannot see or hear what is going on.
03:24So, Jenna, give us your answer.
03:26Errol Flynn.
03:27You are absolutely right.
03:29That means you now have $50 in cash.
03:33The game is $500.
03:35You can move a little closer to that goal right now because you are in a dare situation.
03:39I want you to take a look at the next clue.
03:42As a practical joke, director Raoul Walsh stole John Barrymore's corpse and sat it in this
03:50man's living room.
03:51Now, you can take our dare and show Barry this clue and gamble that he won't be able to come
03:56up with the right answer, Errol Flynn.
03:58If that's the way it works out, then you receive an additional $100.
04:01If he does get the right answer, then he picks up $50 and we have a tie game.
04:06Do you want to take the dare and show him the clue?
04:07Yes, I'll dare him.
04:08Fine.
04:09Let's bring Barry back in.
04:12Barry, Jenna came up with the right answer, and she has taken the dare.
04:16You will have five seconds to look at the clue and come up with an answer.
04:20If you're right, you get $50.
04:22If you're wrong, she gets $100.
04:24Here is the clue.
04:32Barry, do you have an answer?
04:33Groucho Marx.
04:34Groucho Marx is incorrect.
04:35That's $100 more for Jenna, and we close Barry's booth.
04:42Good going, Jenna.
04:43That's where the nerve comes in on Double Dare, and it paid off for you.
04:47$150, and now you're in a Double Dare situation.
04:50Look at the next clue.
04:51Since the title of the film, Elizabeth the Queen, made no note of his role,
04:56he had it changed to Elizabeth and Essex.
04:59That's the Double Dare clue.
05:00Do you think it would help Barry come up with Errol Flynn?
05:03Do you want to take the Double Dare and show it to him,
05:04or do you want us to stop and go on to another subject?
05:07Try the Double Dare.
05:08Okay.
05:09If it works for you and he misses again, you receive an additional $200,
05:13and you will then have a commanding $350 lead in this game.
05:17Let's bring Barry back.
05:20Jenna has decided to take the Double Dare,
05:22and you've got five seconds to look at this clue, Barry.
05:31Do you have an answer?
05:32Ronald Coleman.
05:33Ronald Coleman is wrong.
05:35Errol Flynn's the right answer.
05:36Jenna picks up the $200.
05:38She now has a total of $350.
05:41Nice going.
05:43All right, we are going to go to another subject,
05:45but first we have to take a break for this important commercial word.
05:48Stay tuned.
05:54Welcome back to Double Dare.
05:55The game is $500,
05:57and at the moment,
05:57Jenna Klotzman is leading with $350.
06:01Her opponent, Barry Sachs,
06:03has yet to earn some cash.
06:05Perhaps it'll happen as we go to this subject,
06:07and first of all,
06:08for you people who want to play along with us,
06:10don't look at your screens right now,
06:11because here is the correct answer.
06:13And players, the subject this time is a person.
06:17Clue number one, coming up.
06:20He used Lily of the Valley perfume on his breast pocket handkerchief.
06:26Second clue.
06:27He carried an official deputy sheriff's badge,
06:30which he would flash when necessary.
06:33That's Jenna's buzzer.
06:34Tell me the answer.
06:36Wild Bill Hickok.
06:37Wild Bill Hickok is wrong,
06:39so we're going to close you off for now,
06:41and we will bring Barry back.
06:44Jenna gave me an incorrect answer, Barry,
06:46so that's good news for you,
06:47because you get to look at a penalty clue.
06:49The next clue will be for your eyes alone,
06:51and we'll give you a free guess also.
06:53Here it is.
06:55He once said,
06:57all I ever did was supply a demand
06:59that was pretty popular.
07:02What's the answer?
07:05The DC field.
07:07Incorrect.
07:08But you do have an advantage
07:09in that Jenna will never get a look at that clue.
07:12Let's bring her back.
07:14Well, you're still alive in this subject, Jenna,
07:17because Barry didn't come up with the right answer,
07:19so we continue.
07:20You are both eligible once again
07:21as we look at this clue together.
07:24No American has ever matched
07:26his 1927 gross income.
07:31Moving along to clue number five.
07:34Ironically, he refused to take a syphilis test
07:36because he was afraid of needles.
07:40Next clue.
07:43One of his headquarters,
07:45Cicero, Illinois.
07:46This time, it's Barry who buzzes in,
07:49sealing Janice Booth.
07:50What's the answer?
07:51Al Capone.
07:52Al Capone is right.
07:53Yes, $50 for you.
07:56Barry, you are now in a dare situation,
07:59so let's take a look at the next clue.
08:03Rod Steiger, Neville Brand, and Ben Gazzara
08:05all played him.
08:07You know what happens here?
08:08If you decide to take our dare
08:09and show Jenna this clue and she misses,
08:12you win $100.
08:13If she gets it, she will have $50.
08:15Right now, she has a total of $350.
08:18What do you want to do?
08:19Do you think that clue would give it to her?
08:23Probably, but I will take the dare.
08:24Going to take the dare anyway.
08:26All right, let's bring Jenna back.
08:28Barry gave us the right answer.
08:29He has taken the dare.
08:31You've got five seconds to look at this clue
08:34and give me an answer.
08:41A right answer will give you $400, Jenna.
08:45Al Capone.
08:45You are right.
08:46Yes, indeed.
08:52Well, you're trailing so badly, Barry.
08:54I suppose you felt you had to take the chance,
08:56but, you know, things can turn around
08:58very quickly on Double Dare.
09:00Let's see what happens on this subject.
09:01First of all, the correct answer
09:02for you folks at home.
09:04And I will tell you that you are looking for a person.
09:07And here is the first clue.
09:11He was once fined $10,000
09:13for smuggling jewelry into the U.S.
09:18Next clue.
09:19He raised $6,000,000
09:21for symphony orchestras all over America.
09:25Third clue.
09:27His deliberately effeminate walk
09:29prompted Carol Lombard
09:31to refer to him as Auntie.
09:33Jenna thinks she has the right answer.
09:35Let's hear it.
09:36Jack Benny?
09:37You are correct.
09:38Yes, indeed.
09:40Janet, that brings you a total to $450.
09:43You are just one correct answer away
09:45from winning the game.
09:48Now, you're in the dare situation,
09:50and you could wrap it all up right here
09:52if you decide to give the next clue to Barry.
09:55Let's look at it, first of all.
09:57There was a special one-cent slot machine for him
09:59at the Las Vegas Flamingo Hotel.
10:02Now, you can give that to Barry,
10:03and if he misses, you've got the game.
10:06I'll dare him.
10:07You figure your lead is big enough?
10:09Let's bring Barry back.
10:12She got the right answer.
10:13She's taken the dare.
10:14Here's the clue for you.
10:23Barry, what's the answer?
10:24Jack Benny?
10:25You are right, and that gives you $50 more.
10:27You're now at $100.
10:31$100 for Barry, $450 still for Jenna.
10:34She is just one correct answer away
10:36from taking the game
10:37and then going on to try for $5,000.
10:39Right now, though,
10:40we're going to try to take a break
10:42for some commercial messages.
10:43But stay tuned.
10:47Welcome back to Double Dare.
10:49Jana Klotzman with $450.
10:51Our leader right now.
10:52A game is $500.
10:54Barry, it's not out of reach for you.
10:56Let's go on to our next subject,
10:57and we'll show you folks the correct answer.
10:59And I'll tell you players
11:00that you're looking for a thing.
11:03Here's your first clue.
11:06J.P. Morgan had a very big one
11:08covered with red and purple spots.
11:13Next clue.
11:15According to Pascal,
11:17it has been said that if Cleopatras
11:19had been shorter,
11:20the history of the world
11:21would have been different.
11:22That was Barry sealing Jana's booth.
11:25What's the answer, Barry?
11:26A yacht.
11:27A yacht?
11:28That is wrong.
11:29And so we close you off,
11:31and we'll bring Jana back.
11:34Barry buzzed in first,
11:35but came up with a wrong answer, Jana.
11:38You get a look at the penalty clue,
11:40and you'll get a free guess.
11:41And if you are right,
11:43you win the game.
11:45Here it is.
11:47Aristotle said its shape
11:49revealed one's character.
11:51What is the answer?
11:52A nose.
11:53You are right.
11:54$500 in the game.
11:55Here's a new champion.
11:57Come out here, Dan.
11:59Barry, the right answer
12:00was a nose,
12:01not a yacht.
12:02Sorry about that.
12:03You've got $100 in cash,
12:05though,
12:05and some gifts backstage.
12:06Thank you for joining us
12:07on Double Bear.
12:08I hope you enjoyed it.
12:09Goodbye.
12:10Congratulations to you.
12:12How do you feel?
12:13Oh, I'm nervous.
12:15You're nervous.
12:15All right.
12:16And well, you should be
12:17because you've just won $500,
12:18and in a few moments,
12:19you're going to get a chance
12:20at ten times that amount
12:22because you're going to get
12:23to play a game we call
12:24Beat the Spoilers,
12:25and we will go to that
12:26right after this pause.
12:34The very first player
12:35we introduced on Double Dare
12:37has become our very first champion.
12:39This attractive young girl
12:40is Jana Klotzman,
12:41and she has just won $500,
12:43and now, Jana,
12:44you have a chance
12:44to pick up $5,000
12:46as you get to face
12:48the Spoilers.
12:56Now, the reason we call them spoilers
12:58is because they win money
13:00if they can keep you
13:02from winning the $5,000.
13:04Now, each of these spoilers
13:05is a PhD.
13:07Let me introduce them.
13:08Spoiler number one
13:09is Dr. Don Novin.
13:12Spoiler number two
13:13is Dr. Ira Greenberg.
13:16And spoiler number three
13:18is Dr. Lee Franz.
13:21Those are the spoilers.
13:22Let's shut them out now.
13:24They can't hear us,
13:25and now you can boo them
13:26all you want.
13:29They're the bad guys.
13:31Now, here's how you get
13:31to beat the spoilers.
13:32On this board here,
13:33we have eight clues
13:35to a person, place, or thing.
13:38You have to pick four of them
13:40and give them to the spoilers,
13:41hoping they're not going to be able
13:43to come up with the right answer.
13:44Each time a spoiler
13:45gives an incorrect answer,
13:46we pay you $100.
13:49Now, if you can give
13:50all four clues,
13:51and we have just one spoiler
13:53who has not been able
13:54to come up with the right answer,
13:56then you'll win $5,000.
13:57It's as simple as that.
13:59You understand?
13:59Yeah.
14:00Okay, fine.
14:01Let's look at the correct answer
14:02at the top of the board.
14:06Julius Caesar.
14:07Pick a clue.
14:08Number three.

14:14dramatized his Egyptian love affair.
14:17Now, I told you that there are...
14:18You have to give four clues,
14:20and there are obviously
14:21eight of them up there,
14:22so there are four left over.
14:23We will give you four passes
14:25in case you don't like a clue.
14:27All right?
14:27Tell me whether you want
14:28to give this clue or pass.
14:30I'm going to pass this one.
14:31Okay, the audience
14:33seems to agree with you.
14:34You've used one pass.
14:35Pick another clue.

14:46A lot of people
14:47on the left side
14:47of the audience
14:48were saying give,
14:49and you elected to pass.
14:50By the way,
14:51I should mention
14:51for the benefit
14:52of our viewers
14:52that the eight numbers
14:54up there are no indication
14:55as to whether the clues
14:56are easy or hard
14:57or good or bad clues.
14:58You have now used up
15:00two passes.

15:13Three passes used up.
15:15You still have to give away
15:16four clues.
15:16There are five clues up there.
15:18Pick another one.
15:19Make it a good one this time.
15:20Number eight.

16:50Oh, we have to deal with spoiler number three.
16:52Let's see if we can get it past him.
16:53Dr. Franz.
16:55Julius Caesar.
16:57Too good for us in this round.
17:00You are all right.
17:01Each of you has earned $100,
17:03and you wind up with $300 for a total of $800,
17:05which is pretty good going.
17:07And you're the new champ,
17:08so you're going to get to play against the challenger.
17:10We're going to start another match right after this week.
17:18Our champion, Janet Klotzman,
17:20is in the champion's booth.
17:21She has $800,
17:22and let's go on on Double Dare
17:24and introduce her opponent.
17:27Challenging Janet Klotzman is Gary James.
17:30Hi, Gary.
17:30Hi, how are you?
17:31I am well.
17:32I hope you are also.
17:34We've got a new champion,
17:35and it's your job to dethrone her.
17:37You're familiar with the rules?
17:38I'm very familiar.
17:39Okay, good.
17:39We're going to get right to it, then.
17:41We're going to go right on to our first subject,
17:42and we may not have time to complete this game.
17:45So when we run out of time,
17:47we will stop there.
17:48Here is the correct answer
17:50in our very first subject,
17:52and we're looking for a person.
17:55First clue coming up for you, players.
17:57Here it is.
17:58Often too shy to ask women out personally,
18:01he had members of his staff do it for him.
18:05Gary has buzzed in.
18:07He has sealed Janet's booth.
18:08What's the answer, Gary?
18:09Howard Hughes.
18:09You are right.
18:10Got it on the first clue.
18:11Nice point.
18:15You're in a very good position right now,
18:17getting it on the first clue.
18:18This is the dare situation.
18:20Let's take a look at clue number two.
18:22He subsisted on a diet mainly of fudge and sweets
18:25and was suffering from malnutrition
18:27at the time of his death.
18:29Do you want to take our dare,
18:30show Jana that clue,
18:31and gamble that she won't know the right answer?
18:33I'll dare her.
18:34Okay, fine.
18:34Let's bring Jana back.
18:37Jana is busy,
18:39and they're thinking very hard.
18:40Gary got the right answer.
18:42He has taken the dare.
18:43He is going to show you the clue.
18:45You have five seconds to come up with an answer.
18:47Here it is.
18:53Jana, the answer.
18:54Howard Hughes.
18:55You are right for $50,
18:58and the game is all tied up.
19:01Okay.
19:04Each of our players now has $50,
19:06and we are out of time.
19:08Gary, it looks as if that was a tactical error on your part,
19:12not the right moment at which to take our dare,
19:14but it didn't cost you too much.
19:16It's still very early in the game,
19:18and anything can happen.
19:19Unfortunately, it's not going to happen today
19:21because we are out of time.
19:23Jana, the big winner in cash,
19:25$850 so far,
19:26and we hope you, ladies and gentlemen,
19:28will be able to join us next time out,
