Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II

Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II 1959

imdb 8.4 10

Dorothy Kilgallen, Martin Gabel, filling in for his wife, Arlene Francis, actress Paulette Goddard and Bennett Cerf is this evening's panelists. Host and moderator, John Daly, gets down to business and introduces the first contestant. She is one Mrs. Grace Lake, a New Jersey woman, who is window washer of office buildings. Though the panel does come close, they are stumped, and Mrs. Lake wins by default. Mr. Daly does mention that Mrs. Lake is a member of the Teamster's Union. Next up is a Pennsylvania gentleman, Mr. Robert S. Sullivan. Mr. Sullivan grows and sells Christmas trees. Miss Goddard is on the right track, but falls short, and it is Mr. Cerf who correctly identifies Mr. Sullivan's line of work. Tonights' mystery celebrity guests are the legendary Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II. The legendary musical, "The Sound of Music," opened two weeks ago and it is a sensation. Bennett Cerf disqualifies himself because he recognizes Mr. Rodgers voice, Mr. Cerf, and Mr. Rodgers were dinner companions a few days earlier. It is Miss Kilgallen who identifies the duo. She urges all and sundry to see the beloved musical. Mr. Daly mentions that the team's other musical, "Flower Drum Song," is still playing and Rodgers notes that the show will begin its second year in the coming week. Mr. Daly congratulates the team and moves on to the final contestant. A young Michigan man, Mr. James Wilfong, who shoes horses. As is often the case, time runs out, and Mr. Wilfong wins by default. Mr. Daly thanks, Mr. Gabel and Miss Goddard for their guest appearances, bids the panel good night and, as always, invites viewers to tune in next week.
