00:00And now, here's our home, Sweet Farton Bale!
00:05Thank you very much, Charlie O'Donnell. Hello again, everybody. Thank you.
00:11Welcome to our show. Delighted to have you, and we appreciate the fact that you are with us once again for this edition of our X and O game.
00:18Here's our current champion.
00:19Our current champion, whose winnings and cash and prizes total $8,450,
00:24is a counselor and teacher whose interests include reading, singing, and playing frisbee,
00:28meet Ken Salley!
00:32And his opponent, he's a judge advocate in the Navy,
00:35and his interests include community theater and model railroading,
00:38meet Ed Torrance!
00:44In case he forgets his name, he's got it right down there.
00:46He just looks down there. Edward, welcome back.
00:48Thank you, sir.
00:49A judge advocate. Tell us again what that is.
00:51It means you're an attorney, right?
00:52A Navy attorney.
00:53Navy attorney. And you handle what kind of cases?
00:56Right now, I'm involved in the geothermal energy and the contracts related to it,
01:00but I want to get back in the courtroom pretty soon. I think that's coming up.
01:03You have that young look. You look like you're, you know, you're going to look 21 forever.
01:07You have somebody in the audience, do you not?
01:09I do. My wife, Karen, is sitting there on the end of the row.
01:12Karen, stand up. Now, Karen, you just can't sit there like that. Take a bow. There we go. That's Karen.
01:17Karen, who else do you have out there?
01:21Well, my very good friend, Brenda.
01:23Brenda, hold up your hand.
01:24And her son, Jeff.
01:25Hi, Jeff. Welcome to all of you. Good luck.
01:27Thank you, sir.
01:28Edward, good to have you.
01:30Hi, Ken.
01:30How you doing?
01:31Welcome back to Tick-Tack Hill.
01:32Our current champion is thus far our champ and, what, $8,450 of our style now belong to him.
01:41He's a counselor and a teacher, likes to read, sing, and plays frisbee.
01:45Yes.
01:45Forget the reading and the singing and all that other stuff you do. Frisbee.
01:49Frisbee.
01:50There's no such thing as a frisbee tournament, is there?
01:52Actually, there are. There are different types of competitions involving various types of games with frisbee.
01:57Yes.
01:57Are they part of those spectaculars on network television? Have you had a frisbee thing on TV?
02:02I've never seen one on TV, but who knows?
02:05Have you ever been in a frisbee tournament?
02:06I haven't yet. I haven't competed as yet.
02:08If you were in one, would you win?
02:10I believe I would.
02:10The man likes what he does.
02:12Hey, good luck to you both. Let's get this game started again.
02:16He does handle a frisbee.
02:18Jim Sally and Ed Charles.
02:19Dan from Challenger.
02:21Last show, you're in the middle of your first game, and we ran out of time.
02:23These are the categories.
02:25The subjects for the game are about words, famous sites, women and songs, quotes, funny men, medical facts, famous lovers,
02:31play or pass.
02:32That's where you get a chance to answer the question or pass it up for the next question.
02:36Islands.
02:37Let's take a look and see what the board looked like when we worked together.
02:41And as far as the pot is concerned, it is now worth $900.
02:45Now, it's O's turn to go, so let's move the categories around.
02:49Ed, we had to stop right in the middle of a round.
02:51It is your turn on this particular game.
02:54Wink, I'd like the play or pass category.
02:56Play or pass category.
02:58I'm going to read your question, and you can either answer it or pass it up for the next question.
03:05The subject of the question this time is comic strips.
03:08Here is the first question.
03:10The title character of this popular strip is a bald-headed boy who never speaks.
03:16The question is, was he Henry, Ziggy, or Sluggo?
03:19Now, you can take that question or pass it up for the next question.
03:23If you take this question and answer it correctly,
03:26you'll have tic-tac-toe and become our champion with $1,100.
03:29Ed, you want the question or you want to go to the second one?
03:32I'd like to take it.
03:34You want to take it.
03:35You want me to repeat it or you want to give me the answer?
03:37The answer is Henry.
03:38You got it, and you win.
03:43Popular strip, a bald-headed boy who never speaks.
03:45And that would be Henry.
03:47So, our Navy man over there, our judge advocate,
03:50is our new champion on tic-tac-toe with the right to take on the dragon.
03:54For that vertical tic-tac-toe, we congratulate you, Ed.
03:57Get back to it in just a moment.
03:58$1,100 later.
04:02Well, Ken, Sally, you leave us with a nice, tidy sum and some nice prizes.
04:06Total comes to $8,450.
04:10Congratulations to you.
04:11Thank you, Ed.
04:12I really enjoyed it.
04:13And if I have a frisbee, I throw it to you.
04:14Great.
04:15Ed, come on over here.
04:17I don't know whether to salute you or just shake your hand.
04:21All right.
04:23What are you, Stacey?
04:24Naval Weapons Center at China Lake.
04:26Naval Weapons Center at China Lake.
04:28Okay, behind these numbers are various amounts of money.
04:30We have a tic, we have a tacc, and, of course, the ever-present.
04:33Ah, get off.
04:34Reach $1,000 if we're not kind to him at all.
04:36Reach $1,000 or more, get tic and tacc.
04:39Sir Charles, what do you have for us?
04:40Ed, these two prizes will prove that all that glitters may not be gold.
04:44First, Ed, not everything that glitters on this first prize is gold.
04:47There are also diamonds in this stunning watch.
04:51Elegantly styled by Jules Jurgensen, this lady's 17-jewel petite 14-carat white gold timepiece set with six fiery diamonds,
04:58totaling three-eighths of a carat.
05:00Simplistic cord attachment, beautifully gift boxed.
05:02And second, Ed, the glitter you see in your second prize will be a golden sunset
05:07on the shimmering sea beyond your vacation resort in idyllic Hawaii.
05:13Land of sugarcane, coconuts, exotic flowers, and breathtaking sunsets,
05:17you'll enjoy tropical sun, golden beaches, and fabulous entertainment
05:20when you answer this call to the islands.
05:22We'll fly you to Honolulu, Hawaii, America's paradise in the Pacific,
05:26by a Western Airlines spaceship.
05:28Western's Islander service features warm hospitality and delicious cuisine.
05:31Western Airlines, the only way to fly.
05:34While there, you'll stay at the Kona Surf on the Big Island of Hawaii,
05:37set in beautiful tropical gardens and luxury accommodations,
05:40all the warmth and spirit of Polynesia,
05:42from the Kona Surf on Hawaii's Kona Coast.
05:44This All That Glitters package is worth in cash and prizes over $3,900.
05:50Just stay away from the dragon.
05:52That's my only advice to you.
05:53Get to $1,000 or Dick and Tack, and you know you win all of those nice goodies.
05:57Let me ask you one question before we start.
05:59When I was talking to you at the top of the show and I mentioned you had that young look
06:03and you'll always look 21 and never older, why did your wife laugh?
06:07Oh, that's...
06:08I saw that she's doing it again.
06:10What's her name?
06:11We've been fooled up before.
06:12That's Karen.
06:13Karen?
06:14You look young, too.
06:14You'll always look 20, not 21.
06:16You want to help him with these numbers?
06:18What do you think he ought to take up here?
06:21Number five?
06:21Is that okay with you?
06:22Five it is.
06:22All right, Ed.
06:23Number five.
06:24Blame it on your wife if it's packed.
06:25That's good.
06:26Also, give her credit if she helps you win.
06:30She's a lucky one.
06:33It's in a row going.
06:34Number four.
06:35Maybe it's Tick and you'll win the trip to Hawaii.
06:38$250.
06:39You need $750 more or Tick.
06:42She looked like she wanted that trip to Hawaii.
06:44Oh, lovely.
06:45She wants to go.
06:45What did she say?
06:46She's calling for two.
06:47Number two.
06:47Little deuce.
06:48You want to go to Hawaii, darling?
06:49Number two.
06:50You need $750 or Tick.
06:52$300.
06:53You're getting closer.
06:53$350 more.
06:59$350 more.
06:59$350 more.
07:00$350 more.
07:00$350 more.
07:01Number three.
07:02You need $450 or Tick.
07:04Behind three, do we find it?
07:07You need $50.
07:10Here.
07:11Let me.
07:11I have $50 in my pocket here.
07:13I'm just afraid we'll find the dragon.
07:15What do you think?
07:16That will buy a lot of diapers.
07:20You want to stop and take the $9.50?
07:21You want to keep going?
07:22I think we'll take the $9.50.
07:24I have not had that happen in a long time.
07:27But you're going to need some diapers.
07:29Are you telling us?
07:30That's number two coming.
07:31Really?
07:32When are you expecting?
07:33That's terrific.
07:35Hi, Mama.
07:36About four months.
07:37About four months.
07:38Okay.
07:39So you're going to take the $950.
07:41That brings your grand total on Tic-Tac-Doe, including your winnings from the game you just
07:46picked up.
07:47It's as easy for me to say.
07:48You have a grand total of $2,050.
07:50Now, we're going to send you over there in just a second.
07:57In fact, we're all going to come back in a moment.
07:59Don't go away.
07:59We're going to go to the audience and try to give away $250 in cash if we can find a lucky
08:05dragon finder.
08:05We'll be back in a moment.
08:06$250 here.
08:17And we always like to find the dragon before we proceed with the champion and challenger
08:22in a new game.
08:23For that, we come to the audience, give them a chance to win $250.
08:26We need Charlie O'Donnell, a dragon finder, if you will.
08:29Wink.
08:30We're looking for Nelson Strzok.
08:32Here's your chance to be our dragon finder.
08:36Hi, Nelson.
08:36The way he held up those fingers, I thought it was Richard Nixon standing up over there
08:44with those things going.
08:45Okay, take a look.
08:46One, six, seven, eight, nine, Nelson.
08:50All right, hold up the fingers, though.
08:52Number seven.
08:53All right.
08:53If the dragon is behind seven, you're $250 richer.
08:57Not quite, Nelson.
08:58Sorry about that.
08:59Charlie, we need another dragon finder.
09:01Okay, Wink.
09:02We're looking for Deborah Allen.
09:04Here's your chance to be our dragon finder.
09:07Deborah, take a look.
09:09Between one, six, eight, and nine, what's your lucky number?
09:12Think about it now, Debbie.
09:14You want to go with eight?
09:16Don't let me change it.
09:17You want to go with eight?
09:18Going once.
09:19Going twice.
09:21You sure you want to change?
09:25Would you please make up your mind?
09:28All right.
09:28Number eight.
09:29If it's behind eight, you're rich.
09:31Dick, sorry about that.
09:33You're really going to be sick if it's behind nine.
09:35Charlie, give me another dragon finder.
09:37Okay, Wink.
09:38How about Juan Vergas?
09:39Here's your chance to be our dragon finder.
09:42Juan Vergas.
09:44One, six, or nine.
09:46What are you holding up?
09:47Number nine.
09:48All right, this is yours.
09:50Number nine.
09:51Is it worth $250 to one?
09:53Come on over here, Juan.
10:03First of all, Juan, congratulations to you.
10:06And you're entitled to one of our brand new dragon finder tic-tac-toe heads.
10:10Put that on, will you?
10:11Kind of fit that.
10:12Well, it's a little bit big for you, but one size fits all.
10:18Juan Vergas.
10:18What is this group?
10:21They're awfully noisy.
10:22Where are you guys from?
10:24The High Los Angeles.
10:27Nice to have you all.
10:28Eagle.
10:29Eagle.
10:29Eagle.
10:30All right.
10:30Let me ask you a question.
10:32Very important question because it involves all of these people, all right?
10:35They're all friends of yours.
10:36Am I right or wrong?
10:37Yeah.
10:37Correct me on anything that I, you know, am not right on.
10:40They are friends of yours.
10:41You're all part of one group.
10:42You have won $250.
10:44Does that mean you're going to split this with everybody?
10:46High five.
10:49Now, isn't that nice?
10:50There's 100.
10:52There's 200.
10:54And there's another 50.
10:55How old are you?
10:5618.
10:57Do you ever win money that quickly and that easily?
10:59Nope.
11:00I've been trying so high.
11:01I've been trying a long time.
11:02Are you happy?
11:02Yeah.
11:03Congratulations to you.
11:04I watch your game every day at 730.
11:06Thank you very much.
11:07Good to have you with us.
11:08And thanks for coming down.
11:10Get in touch with Game Show Network.
11:12Log on to our website and play our games or email us your questions and comments.
11:16It's www.sony.com slash gameshownet.
11:20Or drop us a line via snail mail.
11:22Our address is Game Show Network, Post Office Box 805, Culver City, California, 90232.
11:29Now we need a new player for Ed, a new contestant.
11:45So, Charlie, I'm going to throw it right back at you.
11:47Who do you have?
11:48She recently moved from Arizona to Southern California.
11:51She's a health educator whose interests include snorkeling and needlework.
11:55Meet Andrea Portonier.
11:56Hello, Andrea.
12:03Hello.
12:04Welcome to our show.
12:05What brought you to Los Angeles?
12:07Well, I'm looking for a position in corporate health education.
12:10A health educator for a corporation.
12:13Tell me more about that.
12:14Well, what we would do is work with employees to try and improve their lifestyles in nutrition,
12:20exercise, and stress management, things like that.
12:22Well, I'm sure the employees benefit, but what's in it for the corporation?
12:26Well, the corporation gets healthier employees who take less time off work, are happier and more productive.
12:31And that way, everybody comes out ahead.
12:33Very good.
12:34Maybe we can find out more about this a little later if you just stay around here long enough.
12:37Time now to find out if you can come out ahead on Tic-Tac-Toe.
12:40Let's take a look at the board together.
12:41The subjects for these games are famous blondes, royalty, TV stars, bodies of water, suitable titles, physics, where are you?
12:48The grand question, answer this question correctly, and a grand will be added to the pot, making the pot double at that time.
12:55$1,000 addition to the pot.
12:57Second job.
12:58The subjects are on the board, Ed, and we are awaiting your decision, sir.
13:02Wait, may I have where are you?
13:04Okay, and here's your first question in this game.
13:06Listen carefully, Ed.
13:07It is June 6, 1944, D-Day, and you're among the thousands of allied troops across the English Channel and way to shore along a 50-mile stretch of beach in the invasion of this European country.
13:19Name the country.
13:20France.
13:21Yes, Normandy.
13:22France.
13:23D-Day.
13:24Place an X there.
13:25Let's move them around and turn to Andrea.
13:29I'll go with grand question.
13:33Grand question.
13:33All righty.
13:35Now, answer this question correctly, and $1,000 will be added to the pot, making the pot worth $1,200.
13:42Andrea, the subject of the grand question is flowers.
13:46More than 6,000 species of this tropical flower are grown throughout the world.
13:51These species include the beautiful lady slipper and cymbidium, as well as the useful vanilla vine.
13:57To double that pot, or at least to make it $1,200 with the addition of a grand name, this flower.
14:03The orchid.
14:03Right.
14:05So we put an O on the board in the box grand question.
14:08The pot's worth $1,200.
14:10We'll be back to our game in just a moment.
14:12Now, with Ed and Andrea playing our game, shuffle the categories.
14:15Here's $1,200 in the pot, thanks to that grand question.
14:19Andrea answered it.
14:20Let's try physics.
14:22Pardon?
14:22Physics, please.
14:23Physics, bottom right.
14:24I thought you said, let's try a little business.
14:26Physics is your business.
14:27The branch of physics, called thermodynamics, is the study of a particular type of energy.
14:32Name it.
14:38That would be heat.
14:39Heat.
14:40The branch of physics called thermodynamics.
14:42The study of a particular type of energy.
14:45Heat.
14:45Let's move the categories around.
14:47We shuffle.
14:48Still $1,200 in the pot.
14:49Andrea?
14:49I'll go with suitable titles.
14:52In the center.
14:53Always a good one to get.
14:54That center box is worth $300.
14:56This pair co-starred in 10 films, including Flying Down to Rio and Top Hat.
15:01A suitable title of their biography might be It Takes Two to Tango.
15:05First, name the male star of this dancing duo, Andrea, and then name the actress he co-starred
15:10with in those films.
15:12Give you a few seconds to think about the question.
15:19A pair that co-starred in 10 different films, including Flying Down to Rio and a film called
15:28Top Hat.
15:29Name the male star of this dancing duo.
15:33Fred Astaire?
15:34That's right.
15:35Name the actress he co-starred with in those films, and we'll put an O in the center box.
15:39Ginger Rogers.
15:40Right.
15:41You have it.
15:42The team of Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers.
15:45Kind of a guess.
15:47Okay, the O is there nevertheless.
15:49Let's move the categories into different positions on the board.
15:52We shuffle $1,500 in the pot now.
15:54Have we already shuffled?
15:55Okay.
15:56They did it while I was talking.
15:57Ed?
15:58Bodies of water, please.
15:59All right.
16:00To block Andrea, Ed, answer this.
16:02The huge salt lake called the Caspian Sea is almost the size of the state of California
16:06and is the largest lake in the world.
16:08It's surrounded on three sides by Russia and has this Middle Eastern country on its southern
16:12shore.
16:13For a block, name that country.
16:15Turkey.
16:15No, Iran.
16:17Iran is the answer.
16:18$1,500 in the pot.
16:20Let's shuffle again.
16:20Andrea, it is your turn.
16:23Second jobs to win, please.
16:25You answer the question correctly on second jobs, Andrea.
16:29You'll have Tic-Tac-Toe and $1,700.
16:32This is your question.
16:33This artist failed at business several times and was even jailed for bankruptcy.
16:38His famous book of engravings called Birds of America had to be first published in Great
16:43Britain because he could not find an American publisher.
16:46For Tic-Tac-Toe and $1,700, give me his name.
16:53Van Gogh?
16:54No, the answer is John James Audubon.
16:57John James Audubon.
16:59Saved by Audubon, Ed.
17:00Let's move the categories again.
17:01Still $1,500 pot.
17:04Torrance.
17:05I think I'll give another shot at bodies of water, please.
17:07Good luck, Ed, as you try to block Andrea again.
17:09This famous sound lies in the northwest corner of the state of Washington.
17:14It is a leading center of American shipping and such important ports as Seattle and Tacoma
17:18stand on its banks.
17:19For a block, name it.
17:20I hope it's Puget Sound.
17:21It is.
17:22Puget Sound.
17:24Good for a block, Paul Garnley.
17:25The next goes there.
17:26We shuffle the categories as I watch this time.
17:29Saw it move that time.
17:30Andrea?
17:32I'll go with physics.
17:35Physics, bottom center.
17:36Andrea, an Italian physicist named Torricelli was one of the first men to experiment with
17:42this device, which uses a column of mercury to measure air pressure.
17:46Name the device.
17:48A thermometer?
17:49No, it's a barometer.
17:51A barometer.
17:52So, we move the categories again.
17:55Game's still available to somebody in the pot, $1,700, Ed.
17:59Let's take the grand question, please.
18:01Okay.
18:02Ed, the subject of this grand question is inventors.

19:03Under leaders like Cochise and Geronimo, they fought against the United States government until 1900.
19:11For a block vertically of Ed, and to make the pot worth $3,700, name the tribe.
19:18Apache?
19:19Right.

19:57But you write contracts on that subject.
19:59We deal with geothermal energy, and I just made it too hard for myself.
