Interesting Bud introduced them himself.

Round # 2: These three guys were supposed to be 18? They all looked middle-aged to me!

[@kenbrown438]

Why only $250 for each wrong vote !!!!????

[@aliceberry9392]

In today's money that's @$2,250 now!

[@karltiedemann9329]

And contestants on WHAT'S MY LINE earned a mere $50 for stumping the panel, a sum that remained unchanged, I believe, from 1950 to 1967: a keynote of most of the Goodson-Todman shows seemed to be not offering major, life-changing cash prizes. The game itself was the thing. This policy stood them in good stead when the quiz scandals broke, killing programs like THE 64,000 QUESTION/CHALLENGE, DOTTO,, TIC-TAC-DOUGH-- all "big money" shows-- while G-T were able to sail merrily along.

Girl #2 in the first game didn't give her name.

That Steve Allen was a lucky man? Why? His wife was Jayme Meadows. Bud was a professional.

[@aliceberry9392]

What a weird present--a bridal 👰 dress.

[@timothywills7709]

Just what those young girls needed - Marlboro cigarettes

[@jodygoar7071]

Every time - stll obnoxious.

[@nowvoyagerNE]

queen of the US armed forces--can you imagine that happening now-a-days? no wonder it took a long long time for women in the armed forces to get respect.

[@HeWentThattaway]

Today, that title could be for a man, a woman or a transgender person. How times have changed.

[@Christian-ru6op]

@@HeWentThattaway nothing wrong with that

[@peternagy-im4be]

There are plenty of queens in today's armed forces.

[@jodygoar7071]

@@Christian-ru6op Yes there is.
