It’s amusing to see that although in 1959, Yusuf Karsh was already celebrated as the world’s foremost portrait photographer, his own face was not yet sufficiently known, in fact, practically unknown even to such a distinguished panel of actors and singers. I believe that changed later to some extent after Karsh published some self-portraits of himself. Such an anonymity would be nextto impossible these days.
A year and some months later Janey Hart (by then 40) along with twelve other women, passed the same Phase I testing as the original Mercury 7 astronauts. These women, years later, were dubbed the Mercury 13. This private project was later cancelled and Hart testified in Washington before a special Subcommittee of the House Committee on Science and Astronautics, one of the topics being gender discrimination. ua-cam.com/video/7oyaBP97Quo/v-deo.htmlm9s She was also the daughter of Walter Briggs, former owner of the Detroit Tigers/Briggs Stadium.
the pilot was no. 1, and she didn't know what a firewall was, so I erroneously voted for no. 2! I guess you don't need to understand mechanics to fly. Just aeronautics.

Does anyone know why Bud said to Polly, "And boy, are we proud of you!" at the beginning of the program?
Yes. she made a strong musical impression on TV's The Bell Telephone Hour celebrating the music of George Gershwin.
At first I thought boy #2 was Frank Sinatra, Jr.
Correct names are Yousuf Karsh (1908-2002), Jane (or Janey) Hart, née Briggs (1921-2015).
I thought Polly Bergen had a lot of nerve to say that the panel didn't ask very intelligent questions
I agree with Polly about the helicopter pilot , that was the unfairest ever to have two H,pilots on the show

Man #3 in Game #1
Lady #1 in Game #2
Boy #1 in Game #3
