[Paul Tomlin] from Essex, Connecticut brings in an aquarium-sized container of water, with small bottles of powdered milk, apple cider, syrup, vegetable dye, sugar and ink: “I’m going to dump it all into this salt water…we’ll all drink it”                 
Tomlin works for AMF’s Maxim division, makers of the Aquafresh Marine, a device for boaters that converts seawater and its impurities into fresh water, mostly through the evaporation process.  AMF (originally American Machine and Foundry) was once among the largest American companies creating recreational equipment.  Their automatic pinsetters help revolutionize bowling as a leisure activity, and they also made everything from bicycles to golf clubs to volleyballs.  The highly diversified company would begin to experience losses in the 1970s, and by 1985 had been purchased and rendered essentially defunct.   

Mr. and Mrs. Dwight Misner from Spangle, Washington: “We were married last month…We were engaged to be married 63 years ago (in 1898)” 
Laura was only 16 when her 20-year-old beau Dwight originally proposed in Bay City, Michigan.  The love affair fizzled (all they will say is that she was too young), Dwight moved to Washington, and each went on to marry other people.  Their respective spouses eventually died, and Dwight returned to Michigan to woo again, this time successfully.  They married on October 19.  She is 79 here, he is 83.   

Special guest Peggy Cass: “The panel is going to have a race to see…who can dress a boy in his snowsuit the fastest.”                 
Cass brings four young boys with her as the subjects for this slapstick game.  New York had its first snowfall of the season earlier today.  Cass is currently starring in the situation comedy The Hathaways (1961-1962) in which she plays the “mother” to a trio of trained, performing chimpanzees .
