Denver Kathary is my Grandfather and I still have that Masonic ring. He most definitely was a man to look up to. He was (and always be) my Hero <3
Dorothy Kilgallen - what a bright mind!
Arlene's program to which Steve Allen referred in the introduction, a program that turned out was a morning broadcast, was NBC "Home." It premiered 1 March 1954; Arlene was editor in chief and first woman to host a network information talks show program.
So glad they changed the format so that all of the contestants and not just the celebrities shook hands with the panelists when they left instead of having the “average everyday” contestants walk out behind John Daly.
There is a wonderful C. W. Parker carousel museum in Leavenworth which has a working old, restored carousel which you may ride. The museum volunteers provide a wonderful tour. Well worth the visit!
To live back in these days..Thank you for uploading these gems for us to enjoy.
A year before I was born. I wish that William Bendix could have said a few words, instead of the quick walk off stage.
Mr. Kathary worked for the Chattanooga Glass Company in Mt. Vernon for 43 years, and was a lifelong Methodist. Also a Scottish and York Rite Mason. (The nuances of this escape me, but I think it means he was Quite Dedicated and appreciated them A Lot.) He was married to a woman named Lutie, and had 4 kids (3 daughters).
Delores Lee, the baseball pitcher, is still alive!
Arlene was close with her first guess with the first guest.
This episode shows how big baseball was back then. The mention of the Yankees trading for Enos Slaughter. Guessing the last guest was a softball player and then getting it quickly that she was a baseball pitcher.
For the last contestant, John saying something to the effect, 'There was an interesting answer, " was a hint to panelists and viewers that one of the free guesses was close.
The straight line of YES from the last guest is insane!
Steve Allen was hilarious!
Wow! Bennett Cerf NAILED IT with the baseball pitcher all by himself. They don't come any smarter or classier.
During the announcer's presentation in the beginning, Dorothy always looks to the right. I guess that the panelists or the audience in the studio couldn't hear what he said, only the TV-Viewers. I suppose Dorothy waited for a cue from someone when she should start talking.
Today's CZcams Rerun for 2/2/16: Watch along and join the discussion!
Nobody acknowledged Bennett Cerf's joke when he free-guessed "Apokathary"!
I suspect John was wrong to change the answer to Steve Allen's question. I think baby bottles were in more use at this time than at the turn of the century, not only because there were way many more people. The other factor would have been that in the 1950s it was becoming considered so much higher class to not breastfeed one's babies. Like not cooking and putting TV dinners in the oven, bottles were promoted in subtle ways as so much classier a way to get nourishment into one's baby. It did not involve bared breasts and an infant sucking on them and milk coming out of them all the while they were going up and down in size, depending upon whether the baby had just been fed or was ready to be fed. The breast is not a sterile organ and it was thought to be so much less lower class and more exalted somehow to be able to keep oneself covered after the birth and get the baby fed with glass and rubber contraptions that could be sterilized and kept in the cupboard or the refrigerator when not in use. Neat and tidy with nothing to suggest sexuality, animality.
I think Mr. Daily spent two hours in the makeup chair each week - preparing his complicated comb-over.
