Robert Hamlin from Fairfield, Maine with his 3-year-old twins
Terry and Cherry: “We have eighteen brothers and sisters”
Wacky
childbirth. The twenty children in the
Hamlin family include three sets of twins.
Ages range from 22 to ten months.
The entire clan marches out after the game, and the show provides the
family with a much needed clothes dryer.
Jack Slack from Freeport, Grand Bahama Island: “We found a sunken
treasure worth more than a million dollars”
In October
1964, Slack and a trio of skindiving colleagues discovered thousands of 17th
century coins in only 30 feet of water just a few hundred yards from the
Lucayan Beach Hotel on the island.
Estimates of the value of their find would reach as high as $9 million,
but the foursome would not enjoy such riches.
Between dealings with various governments wanting cuts, a backer hired
to market their find, and infighting amongst the four men, they would barely
break even on their discovery. Slack
would later write Finders Losers: The
Lucayan Treasure Find (Holt, Rinehart & Winston 1967) about their
failed adventure.
Special guest Buddy Hackett brings with him five women chosen from
the audience: “One of these ladies will replace Bess Myerson on the panel next
week”
The five women don’t know the reason
they’re on stage. Steve and Buddy have a
glass slipper, and the woman whose foot most closely fits it will win the
gig. The highly anticipated remake of
the Rodgers and Hammerstein TV musical Cinderella,
starring Lesley Ann Warren, will air immediately after tonight’s show. The show would be an enormous hit in the
ratings, and would become an enduring classic, as fondly remembers by many as
the Julie Andrews original. Secret had played a similar Cinderella game in 1958 (
E311
). Hackett is
starring in the Broadway musical I Had a
Ball (1964-65) which, despite the title, has nothing to do with the
Cinderella story. Hackett will also sit
in on the panel next week.
Don't be thrown off by the beginning of the video below. It connects delightfully.
