FIRST GUEST: Myna Shelton

I, Myna Shelton, am a criminal investigator in the office of the county prosecutor.  I deal in murder, arson and other felonies. I am an ex-postmaster and was once a secretary to the governor of my state.  For seven years, I was active in show business as a singer and dancer in vaudeville and nightclubs.  Despite the fact that I am a grandmother, I am proficient in the art of Judo.  I swear that the above statement is the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. 

Signed, Myna Shelton

SECOND GUEST: Tom Joseph

I, Tom Joseph, was born and raised in Texas.  I am now a member of the Texas State Legislature.  After my discharge from the service, I attended college under the G.I. bill and graduated with a degree in agriculture.  I started with $350 and before I was 30 years I controlled more than $1 Million worth of real estate, had an interest in several oil wells, was Chairman of the board of Three Banks and Director of two others.  At one time, I received over six hundred proposals of marriage which in no way accounts for the face that I got married three days ago and now in New York on my Honeymoon.  I swear that the above statement is the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. 

Signed, Tom Joseph

POLLY:

It’s the Jumping-off place to West Texas.  He was born in Dallas

HILBY:
#3: “What is Rotation Planning?”
A system where you don’t deplete the land by using too much of the minerals by rotating crops.  And if you’re lucky you’ll get oil out of the hole.
#2: “Who is the head of the legislature”
Too much of a challenge to answer right away.

Host: Wally Bruner
Announcer: Johnny Olson
Panel:

  • Soupy Sales
  • Meredith MacRae
  • Gene Rayburn
  • Arlene Francis

Ah, but Arlene all of those things I have done, none of them compares with working with you on What’s My Line? and the rest of our very charming panel.

What things?? We don’t know, Buzzr clipped the intro again.

FIRST GUEST: Rufus Harley (Philadelphia, PA)

He’s self-employed and deals with a service.

Soupy: With what you’re wearing, would that have to do with what you do? (Afro-centric outfit)
It IS what he wears, but it’s not necessary $5
Meredith: Do you work for a profit-making organization?
Forgot the self-employed bit, she gets a pass.
Can your services be provided for both men and women?
Yes
Do you entertain people in any way?
Yes
Indoors more than outdoors?
Both, though mostly indoors. Not important, though.
Do people watch you?
Yes
You don’t touch people in any way?
No means Yes
Do you hold anything in your hand?
Yes
Can you perform on a nightclub stage?
Yes
When you have this thing in your hand, can you also move it away?
Yes
Are you a juggler?
No $10
Gene: Does who he do involve music?
Yes
Is his instrument in the string family?
No $15
Arlene: Is it a pipe?
Hmmmm, yes
Do you hold it in your mouth?
Yes
Something other than the flute?
Yes
Would knowing the instrument be essential?
Yes
“An instrument that we are not so accustomed to seeing in our orchestra?”
Yes
In the Kazoo Family?
No $20
Soupy, going through all of what Arlene has found out: Are you a clarinet player?
No $25
Meredith: The instrument longer than a whistle?
Yes
Do you play a recorder and cobras come up?
No $30
Gene: An instrument that the Western World is familiar with?
Yes 30 second warning
Is it a recorder?
No $35
Arlene with a final question: Does your costume bely the quality of the instrument, by that I mean is it anything like a bagpipe…

ARLENE DOES IT AGAIN! Yes, Rufus PLAYS BAGPIPES, Jazz bagpipe. He’s part of a four-piece combo and the American Federation of Musicians. Plus, he’s the only Left-Handed Bagpiper And of course, we have a performance.

SECOND GUEST: Bob Krugman (Chicago, IL)

He’s self-employed and deals with a product.

Arlene: Would I be interested in your product?
Possibly
Be interested for a man?
No $5
Soupy: Would it be good for an animal?
No $10
Meredith: Does your product come in contact with the body?
Yes
Is it other than clothing?
Absolutely not (No Means NO this time) $15
Gene: Is it an expensive product?

Does it change the appearance of the individual involved?
Hopefully
In the cosmetic field?
No $20
Arlene: Is it anything in the massage field?
No $25
Soupy: Benefit from the body up?

No $45
Gene: Is it decorative?
Yes
Do you design the ones you make?
Yes
Is it made of fabrics?
Yes
Are they NOT utilitarian?
Yes means NO! Game over

Arlene would’ve gotten it: Bob makes MATERNITY CLOTHES, owner and designer of Plus One. Or Plus One Etc. depending on how many children a mother has. Before this, he was a stage actor and rock singer.

MYSTERY GUEST

Wally figures it’s okay to cut the panel 30 seconds, since this one is so well known. (2 1/2 Minutes Total)

Meredith: Are you in the entertainment business? “You might say that” (Sounds like Paul Lynde)
Gene: Are you primarily an actor? No
Arlene: Are you in the theater? No
Soupy: Are you known mostly for television? “Sort of”
Meredith: Have you ever had your own television series? Yes

Arlene: Are you singing someplace around New York at the present time? Yes (About to burst)
Soupy: Would this be in a nightclub? Yes and No
Meredith: Are you also known for your recordings? Yes
Gene guesses Mel Torme…RIGHT!

Mel was nervous after he did an interview with Patrick O’Neal. When O’Neal asked about lunch, Mel let him know off the record. Pat joked that he was on the panel. Soupy talks about a special Mel did with the Marty Page Group. Gene was amazed Mel could disguise his voice.

Closing: Looking back on the past week, Wally points out some great highlights. Soupy learning Yoga, Meredith’s father as a mystery guest and Arlene’s amazing skills. She doesn’t take all the credit for the work.

1984 Let's Make a Deal

LET’S MAKE A DEAL-October 9, 1984

gamespeopleplayed No Comments

Host: Monty Hall
Featuring: Brian Cummings and Karen LaPierre

THREE PLAYERS: Patti Gray (banana), Bo Benson (baboon), and Sarah Knapp (shocking pink crayon)

There’s a fresh, crisp $1 bill for each of our group. However, they could turn into a lot money with the Fantastic Money Machine. It’ll turns dollar bills into other bills, $100; $500, maybe a Thousand. Patti can go first OR can buy Curtain #3 for that little dollar. She’s sure to get a supply of Os-Cal Calcium. That’s enough for her to buy. Had that dollar gone through the machine, it would’ve become…a THOUSAND DOLLAR BILL. Patti does have the calcium and more…CALCIUM STRAIGHT FROM THE FARM. MOO!

Bo can try the Money Machine unless the comet box interests him. He wants the money machine. Inside the box a Vitamaster Pro 1000 Exercise Bike and Hitachi 13″ TV ($1,019.95) “But you went for the dough, Beau” And the singleton is now…$500. Now for Sarah: The Money Machine or Curtain #1? She takes the curtain. The Money Machine was still on the $500 setting. Too late, Sarah’s won herself… TWO PUNK ROCKERS (chairs)

NEXT TRADER: Sheila Pierre (Bumblebee)

Monty has two things for Sheila, but she can only have one: A Teddy Roosevelt Series EE Savings Bond or a can of Jolly Time Popcorn. The audience says Popcorn, but Sheila takes the bond. Monique, seated in front of Sheila, gets the can. Inside…just popcorn! The audience was wrong! Sheila can still trade that bond for the diamond box. NOPE! It would’ve been…a White-Westinghouse 17 cu. ft. Fridge/Freezer filled Bright & Early Drink ($864.95) Monique has spilled the popcorn all over the floor! All because she didn’t trust Monty Hall! SURPRISE!

Back to Sheila, she guesses the Teddy Roosevelt is worth “couple of thousand”. Is it worth trading for the small box? The bee keeps her money, honey. In Brian’s Box…A PANDA PLUSHIE.

So how much is that bond worth? We’ll open it…

DOOR #4

People Picker: #34

Millie Perry (red hula girl)

Same drill, take the BIG CASH behind Door #4 or take this behind Curtain #3: A Konica CV301 Video Camera and Panasonic Portable Video Recorder ($1,549). Millie says, “I’m a gambler” Open the Door:

$ 2 3 9 9!

She’s happy and so is her son, the farmer. We’ll she give him some of the money? “I might”

And Sheila, we didn’t forget to open the bond…we’re just not going to do it yet.

NEXT COUPLE: Earl and Margie Eddy (fireman in overalls and a chef respectively)

And they brought cookies!! That won’t help them in this deal. What the Eddys need is $7 to buy this: $7 A Volkswagen Sports Coupe ($13,441)

$1: 3.5 oz. Sanwa Ramen Soup within 30 cents.
Guess: 49¢ ARP: 49¢
$2: Near East Rice Pilaf (7 oz.) within 40 cents.
Guess: 79¢ ARP: 89¢
$3: Pearl Drops Smokers Tooth Polish 3 oz. within $1
Guess: $2.50 ARP: $4.03 (No harm, no fowl)
$4: True Value 3pc. Cutlery within $2
Guess: $40

First, Monty has more than $7 for the Eddy now. $200, if they give up on the car. $300…$350…$375…$400…$425…$450…$475…$500 DONE!

ARP: $29.95 (All good)

RECAP

Millie$2,399
Bo$500
Earl & Maggie$500
PattiBUM STEER
SarahHOY! HOY!
Sheila???

BIG DEAL OF THE DAY: $8,183

Sheila decides to pass up the three doors for that pic of Teddy Roosevelt. The Eddys and Bo step up with same amount. SNEAK PEEK:

Good eatings from KFC. What else? We’ll find out after…

Stylish Catalina His/Her Active Wear, Nike Sneakers and Apparel and Helbros His/Her Watches (3 each) ($1,295) And trying all that on is…no one.

Something less active, a Simmons Hide-a-Bed and Sharp Component Stereo & 19″ TV. ($2,847) That’s a good time for…the Eddys.

And to top off Bo’s big meal…a Schaefer & Sons Californian Grand Piano. He dabbles a little, but Monty will help with lessons…a check for $1,750 ($8,183)

Sheila gets one last offer, $500 for the bond. Well, she’s come this far, so the bond it is. At maturity value: $1,000! But who has time for maturity? The bank of Hall will pay it right now.

Total Winnings: $14,429

Quickie Deals: Monique, who spilled the Jolly Time, can get $100 for two lipsticks. She only gets $50

Game Over

Debbie Kath is the youngest female hot air BALLOONIST in the world. And she does instruct, but it’s not her basic job. Ballooning is more about advertising and putting on a show. She can stay up around an hour “while my gas holds up.” (No Fart Jokes, please) All this started after writing a paper for 8th grade about “Stratospheric Research”. Busy for a 19 y.o., Debbie is also her hometown “Miss Roseville.” As for airplane, coming here was her first flight.

Do you have anything to do with beards?

Do you sell fake beards?
YES (AND MUSTACHES)

Soupy’s FINALLY GOT ONE THIS WEEK! Mr. Pulaski been at this for a year. He gets many young men who can’t grow their own facial hair. Other clients work in banks or other places that don’t allow it. Eddie’s new career followed 30 years being a barber. Indeed, Gene was a customer and would’ve disqualified himself.

Onto the demonstration, Eddie puts a businessman type on Wally. “It’s a bit difficult to breathe.” Before going to Soupy and Gene, Eddie reveals his fake hair…including his head. He makes hairpieces, too! Soupy (Diabolical, Mitch Miller) and Gene (“Gilded The Lily”)

IT’S ALLEN SHERMAN

Wally declares it’s time to take the fake mustaches off. Allen’s is real! A staff member tried to pull it off backstage. Among other things (writer for “I’ve Got a Secret”) he’s casting a comedy musical for Broadway. His last record “Togetherness” was released about a year prior. Wally recounts a story about Allen and his maid in California. He’d just been fired from “The Steve Allen Show” They were trying to decide who should file for unemployment pay. The other would’ve had to clean the house.

Closing: Big news, Arlene has been elected to the United States Hall of Fame in Washington. To add to that, her son Peter is in Phi Beta Kappa in college.

1984 Let's Make a Deal

THE ALL-NEW LET’S MAKE A DEAL-October 8, 1984

gamespeopleplayed No Comments

Host: Monty Hall
Announcer: Brian Cummings

FIRST TRADER: Susan Morgan (Buffalo Bills linebacker, actually from Utica)

Would you like $5,000 worth of scrap iron?

Sure, she would

She’d even take it in tuna. Actually we were thinking something else…A Chevrolet Chevette 2 Dr. Coupe. Brian gives the price up front and that’s not a mistake. Once Susan has heard the full description, she now has to remember the exact price.

Her guess: $6,500
ARP: $6,288

At least four audience members say they knew it. They won’t get cars and 40 other members are getting a lie detector test instead. Without a car for herself, Monty gives her $100 for a bus ride.

Oops, he forgot to give Susan that $100? While we’re at it, if she can remember the price of that Chevette now, she’ll win…another $100. Susan gets it right!

Well, we’re STILL not done with this car yet

NEXT PLAYER: Steve and Barbara Casort (he’s wearing hard hat with nurses uniform, she’s a butterfly bursting out of a cocoon)

The price of that Chevy hasn’t changed, but that’s not gonna help them this time. Pricing all of these items will, within $10

ITEMGUESS
Smokers’ Polident (40 tablets)1.49
Ronson Kleenol Spot Remover Kit4.89
True Value E-Z Kare Latex Paint (1 gal.)15.00
Norelco Electric Shoe Polisher24.50
West Bend Electric Wok39.22

Before we add it up, let’s give the Casorts a sure thing. It’s a La-Z-Boy Signature II Sleeper Sofa and Sharp 19″ TV. ($1,698) Steve says “Ring up the Total.”

Polident2.89
Kleenol4.79
Paint18.95
Polisher27.95
Wok66
TOTAL:120.58
CASORTS85.10
Difference:35.48

The wok was the fatal blow! Monty suggest hitching a ride with Susan, but they prefer home in Santa Barbara. The $100 will be for dinner this time.

We’re giving the Chevette a break as Brian brings a big gift certificate. That’s big size-wise, but value wise?

CURRENT OWNER: Donna Katzen (student nurse with mop head and HUGE needle)

$ 1

Oh, this is a gift certificate for Carter’s Layettes Set. (Donna’s brother has a new baby)

$ 1 4

At this point, our nurse can trade that certificate for Curtain #3. A man dressed as a Zonk will get what’s left. Donna, being a mother of five and not ready to be a grandma, takes the curtain? No, Monty I didn’t get the logic. Donna, however, gets…A FAMILY OF BEARS (from California Stuffed Toys)

NEW OWNER: Cliff Roberts (ZONK! Robot)

Time to reveal some more…

$ 1 4 5

It’s a sure thing or Cliff can trade for Curtain #2? Cliff “Gamble” Roberts takes the curtain.

$ 1 4 5 0

The good news, it’s not bears. The bad news…IT’S A PIGGY BANK!

NEXT TRADER: Charlene Pitcher (dressed as a normal person)

She gets the spotted box which has not one, not two, but three items. Monty will pay $150 for each. She’ll turn down the $450

  • 1. Berkline Wall-Away Recliner
  • 2. Welbilt Electric Radiator
  • 3. Hitachi Stereo System
  • TOTAL: $1,193.95

MOVE QUICKLY TO: Karen Slusarski (elk, if Playboy chose elks over bunnies)

Curtain #1 has four items…specifically four wheels. Is the Chevette back? Monty offer $100 a wheel…$150. Nope. Karen gets the four wheels and they’re spinning….THREAD!!

SCORES

Charlene$1,193.95
Susan$200
Steve and Barbara$100
DonnaBEAR HUG!
CliffOINK! OINK! OINK!
KarenOVERSPUN!

BIG DEAL OF THE DAY: $7,930

A conflicted Charlene makes the trade. Donna spends less time thinking “YES!” Here’s a sneak preview

There’s some No Nonsense Pantyhose. More on that later, but first we open wide…

Monty’s Piggy Bank alive with cash, just cash. ($333) No one’s bringing home that bacon.

A relaxing Bassett Warrenton Bedroom and Dream Maker Mattress along with Whisper Soft Mills Bedding ($3,419.15) It’s bedtime for…Charlene and her almost-husband Dan. Donna wanted those pantyhose for her four girls.

Gracie Allen lives!

Monty’s words

Along with those nylons, this big deal has some things for just Donna. A Dalton Ladies’ Wardrobe, an Amelia Earhart 3pc. Luggage and…a Dicker & Dicker Davina Mink/Stone Marten Coat ($7,930)

Before the Quickies, we go back to Susan. Before she hops on the bus, another memory test. What kind of car did we have? Chevy is right. What kind of Chevy? Chevette. Right for another $200

Total Winnings: $11,849.15

Quickies: A Scarecrow gets a $100 for an envelope. Could’ve had another $100 except that it had a stamp. And a Peter Pan stand-in gets $100 for a brush.
