Garry the weatherman: “It’s a miserable, cold, wet, windy night in New York City.”   

Chief of Police Porter Rhodes, Jr. from Rochester, IN: “I received a parking ticket from one of my men” 
Chief Rhodes was ticketed in February of 1953 by one of his newer patrolmen, who by the time of this show had already left the force.  We are assured it had nothing to do with this incident.   

Mrs. Hewlett Hodges from Sylacauga, AL: “I was hit by a meteorite” 
Elizabeth was struck by the nine pound stone in her farmhouse just weeks earlier, on November 30.  Garry displays the melon-sized rock after the game.  The incident almost immediately brought controversy, first as the local Air Force base briefly took possession of it, and later as both the Hodges and their landlord claimed ownership of the meteorite, which had attracted attention from interested bidders.  The parties would settle out of court in September of 1955, with the Hodges maintaining ownership and paying a small sum to the landlord.  By that time though, the public had lost interest, and the Hodges could not find a buyer.  They donated it to the University of Alabama in 1956.   

Special Guest Peter Lorre turns the tables on Garry 
Lorre and the panel present Garry with embarrassing bits related to some of the challenges he subjected the panel to over the course of the past year.  Garry is fed boiled rattlesnake (based on a February 24 game E72 ), is given an ice cream sundae to eat while blindfolded and attached to a reducing machine (November 17 E110 ), is hoisted by a crane into the rafters after answering yes and no questions (March 17 E75 ), and engages in a snowball fight with Bill and Henry (January 20 E67 ).
