"George Lugner" from Washington DC”: “I’m going to meet Betsy Palmer for the first time tonight” 
Mark Goodson uses an assumed name to play a trick on Betsy, the only panelist he hasn’t met.  Everyone else is in on the gag. “Lugner” is a German word that means ‘liar’.   

Jim Dannaldson from Hollywood: “My squirrel has her own mink coat” 
Sally the Squirrel spends most of the game perched on Garry’s shoulder.  Dannaldson is a naturalist who runs a company that supplies exotic animals to movie makers.  Among his credits are the spiders in Tarantula! (1955) and the seagull in That Happy Feeling (1959).

Special Guest Margaret O’Brien: “I’m crying because…I have an onion in my handkerchief” 
The panel has been instructed to cry their questions to Miss O’Brien, who cries her responses in return, but with her built-in edge.  Garry hints at the fact that he and the panel would be appearing in an upcoming movie.  It Happened To Jane (1959) would come out the following year.
