RIP Dr. Raymond John “Ray” Spahr (4 Aug 1904- Nov 1989) (aged 85) you will truly be missed and my prayers go out to you and your family. Dorothy Kilgallen was one of my favorite panelists on What's My Line? (TV Series 1950-1967).
The most noticeable difference between then and now is imo the much more cultivated language. By that I mean a far, far better modulation, a slowlier speech and nothing of the horribly nasal intonation that has become normal today. :(
Did they at the time though? I imagine that they may be more common among the elderly nowadays than 50-60 years ago. I was actually surprised that disposable diapers (or "pinless diapers" as they are referred to here) were so prevalent in the countryside of the US at that time.. (perhaps because I am comparing with China, where a lot of people still use/prefer to use traditional non-disposable ones even today) In any case, this, like all the WML clips, is excellent entertainment! Thanks, seafree
10:05 John Daly and The Cloudy Crystal Ball -- within a year, Daly remarried the Chief Justice's daughter and fathered a few more babies. John mentioned that Dr. Spahr's organization was associated with Johnson and Johnson. It would be darned interesting to know how much of a relationship he had with my late neighbor Carlisle Harmon who as a researcher at Johnson and Johnson held a patient associated with his discovery of the material that made disposable diapers.
Our extended family cared for our mother at home until her passing last week. Extended families STILL care for their elders. It just happens that today some families tend to move away from each other.
Back in those days, there weren't corporations running nursing homes they way they are today. People had families that were extended and cared for their elders...
Regardless of corporations, there were certainly nursing homes by then. Some people have no relatives by the time they’re elderly. And others have needs that are too complex

I love the sideways glances Dorothy gives the crowd whenever they crack up
Her confusion about the audience's reactions is always hilarious.
I love Dorothy's sly remark on how her diaper folding brings the diaper above the waist. Thanks for posting this!
"Is it non explosive?" LOL!!
John Daly makes me smile.
3:28 Daly ALMOST gives too much away by saying, "Dr. Spahr", but caught himself almost too late.
I like how DK glares at the audience during her questioning. She did the same thing in another diaper-related segment.
"I don't see what could be so funny about it" lmfaoo! i always laugh when dorothy says that.
Diaper segments were always hysterical
DIED at the Explosive question -- and then the solid/liquid! 😂🤣
I'd say she's at her funniest when she's not aware of it. :-)
The HUGGIES man.

At the end, Daley said: Mankind would be in-TURD-ally indebted to the guest. OK...no one caught that flub!

What was the original air date of this episode?

Better thai rocket science.
