Bill, Jayne, Henry, Betsy Palmer

This is only the second appearance for Betsy Palmer, still a couple of years away from becoming a regular panelist.   

Joseph Pugliese, a mail carrier from Dominguez, CA: “I’ve kissed every woman on my mail route (528 Of Them)” 
Mr. Pugliese, “Pug” to his friends, was so well-liked by the families on his Long Beach route that they all threw him a surprise birthday party and chipped in to purchase a mail cart, which postmen at the time had to pay for themselves. All the women at the party lined up to give him a kiss.  The final kiss came from his wife.   

[Tony Malicia] of Cleveland, OH: “I’m translating the questions into Italian for my mother in Cleveland” 
Mr. Malicia’s mother is a huge fan of the show, he tells them, but can’t speak English and usually has him translate for her as they watch together.   

Special Guest Ronald Reagan enters and reenters multiple times 
The gimmick here is that in film, even the slightest mistake requires a retake, so Reagan starts over from the beginning every time a panelist messes up or is at a loss for words.  The future president’s film career mostly behind him at this point, Reagan was into his second of what would become eight seasons as host of General Electric Theatre.
