Cool to see the real Duncan Hines (& I DO like DH cake mixes!)
By 1953, Hines sold the right to use his name and the title of his book to Roy H. Park to form Hines-Park Foods, which licensed the name to a number of food-related businesses. The cake mix license was sold to Nebraska Consolidated Mills in Omaha, Nebraska, which developed and sold the first Duncan Hines cake mixes. So Duncan himself was not actually involved directly in a cake company.

I do like cake.
Barbara Hammer eventually became a experimental films and a professor at the European Graduate School in Saas-Fee. She created films dealing with women's issues such as gender roles, lesbian relationships and coping with aging and family.
That's another Barbara Hammer who would have been too young in 1954 to write for a movie (15 years old)
If there is a relation to the Duncan Hines baking products I was today years old to learn Duncan Hines is a real person.
When Hy Gardner made that rude remark to Duncan Hines, at least the moderator knew enough to know it was wrong (by the way he reacted). On What's My Line (which I LOVE alot more than this show), but on What's My Line, Fred Allen made rude remarks all the time (and Arlene made one or two herself), but nobody even cared. It just like, "Whatever; no big deal."
I never heard anyone on THIS show say anything rude though (til now)
Agreed. Never thought much of Hy Gardner and now think even less of him. It was a nasty thing to say...
Sounds like a cheap shot made for whatever reason he chose at the time. I believe acts always come back to the sender whether in this lifetime or another, a good reason to be kind.
Gardner always makes wisecracks that are at least somewhat rude. In this he said one woman had a poodle haircut, and then that one boy was small enough to fit in a soapbox without removing the soap.
hy gardner does a lot. he must have been a real jerk
Electrolux!!
Miss Hammer is still alive and well
I believe you are mistaken. Barbara Hammer died in 1994.
@Mark Richardson This Barbara Hammer was the one who passed away in 1994. Better known later as Barbara Avedon.
Man #3 in Game #1
Lady #2 in Game #2
Boy #3 in Game #3
Never knew Duncan Hines was a name.
How about Howard Johnson ? ? He was real too!!
I am guessing Duncan Hines is no longer with us 😢
Cremated at 350 degrees.
@@redwatch. yes but did they pre heat the oven?
He's still alive. He just celebrated his 134th birthday.
One can view the Soapbox Derby here on YT - search for title 1957 Soap Box Derby 20th Anniversary - clear film of the derby and Akron Ohio in August 1957, almost 65 years ago
Ralph shakes his ✋ hand !!!!
Bern Bennett is the announcer.
Panel: Polly Bergen, Ralph Bellamy, Kitty Carlisle & Hy Gardner.
Polly did not try to steal all the attention but Hy Gardner is becoming a bit annoying. He made some comments that he should not have made. It was good that the classy Bud called him out. Hy also should not make jokes about someone's height. He was not a big man at all. Thanks for the video.
He was a small man in many ways - physically and small-minded too.
@@gwenniegirl50 I would not have gone out for a beer with him.
Hy has a dry sense of humor. After all this is entertainment regardless how the panel drums up a laugh.
Duncan Hines died in 1959 sadly. Born in 1880 so would have been 79.
18:09 What a cheeky little rascal! :/

I don't know what answers Hy and Ralph found to be so impressive from #1 in game 3. I thought it was #2, because he seemed to know the soap box derby rules so well. (Of course, he may have been making it up, have researched it, or even been a legitimate derby participant -- just not the winner.) Besides, I don't think there was ever an airport in England that was simply called London Airport. There has been a London City airport since 1981, but that didn't exist in 1957. I got every game wrong in this episode, as usual. I thought #1 had the best answers in game 1 and was surprised nobody picked him, and I thought #3 was the real one in game 2 for the same reason as Kitty.
I had no idea there was a real Duncan Hines! It's too bad they use his name to pass off inferior cake mixes nowadays. :( Hy Gardner couldn't sound more New York and Jewish if he tried! :)
Well, I do think it’s better than Betty Crocker.
Duncan Hines is a actually a reliably good cake mix. I assumed he was a chef.
Personally like those cake mixes...Anything Duncan is good! ! !
Deliberate disrepresention !!!!
does it strike any one else, the number of times the Bud has to 'recount' to ascertain the amount of winnings....it is as if he has short-term Memory loss, or was poor in arithmetic in school. lol....
