Special guest June Allyson challenges the panel with a scavenger hunt by phone.  The show gives each panelist a list of phone numbers of nearby apartment dwellers.  The panelists have to convince those strangers to bring items to the studio before the end of the episode. The live show airs at 10:30 in the evening, adding to the challenge.  After a successful career on stage and in films throughout the 40s and 50s, Allyson is currently the host of The June Allyson Show (1959-1961), an anthology series in which she also occasionally starred.   

The Bourbon Street Six: “We taught Betsy Palmer to play the drums this afternoon”                 
Before the game is played, we learn that the Dixieland group tried earlier in the week to teach Henry the drums, and that he would have been the subject of their Secret, but he just couldn’t get the hang of it.  The group members are Dick Gail, Bill Kelsey, Jimmy Haislip, Buddy Jackson, Bob Coquille and leader Roy Liberto.  They, and Betsy, perform a rousing version of “Muskrat Ramble” (1926).   

Special guest June Allyson returns with a Secret related to the earlier scavenger hunt: “If nobody shows up – I’ll eat my hat.”
She has brought the hat in its own box.  She is safe, however.  Betsy and Bill both succeeded in getting someone to come to the studio with their item.  As a backup, Bill cheated and called his own wife, so Ann Cullen appears briefly.  

The Bourbon Street Six return to play “Sweet Georgia Brown” (1925) over the credits, this time with Henry on drums!
