Mary Healy did a fine job filling in for Polly B. She did not try to take over the show the way Polly Bergen does at times. It is always good to see Jackie Cooper. He was a member of the Little Rascals troupe when he was a small boy. The Little Rascals is slowly coming up on their 100th anniversary from when they first started. Thanks for the video.

I noticed in Jacques Pepin's autobiography that he made appearances on both What's My Line and To Tell the Truth (the panel picked a fatter imposter over the skinnier Pepin). Has anyone found these episodes? Even Imdb is drawing a blank.

Fab Cool Chef ! 😃☝️

Too bad no one cleared up why the real one disagreed with Hy about the VP's office, which Hy seemed pretty sure of. Maybe she never got over there, or she forgot.

The chefs didn't get Geritol !!!!

[@shuboy05]

Why did Jackie Cooper go twice on Contestant #2?

[@Walterwhiterocks]

In the shows of the late 50s, if time allotted, the panelist who started the questioning for that round, got a second turn.

[@ToddSloanIAAN]

Number three ... killinary? I had a potential chance to be chef at New Hampshire Statehouse.

[@kenbrown438]

Now , they get a supply of Geritol !!!!

[@TruckTaxiMoveIt]

Is Geritol still on the market?

Never

I was "sure" the real Marilyn Bell was # 3, since she seemed to have the most athletic build. And, even if she wasn't, she was best-looking of the three. (I know this is a dumb reason, but that's how easily manipulatable I am!)

[@retrorex]

519DJW Yes, she was a doll!

Being Canadian, I recognized Marilyn Bell as soon as the three contestants introduced themselves. Her swimming achievements were big news here in Canada.

[@soulierinvestments]

Nebraska had two female short term senators in 1954 -- this one was the second female senator from Nebraska in 1954, who served in November and December.

[@retrorex]

soulierinvestments Wish our current senators could serve for two months!

[@Bigbadwhitecracker]

+retrorex Amen to that

[@tomservo56954]

What's the story behind that?

[@shrillbert]

@@tomservo56954 That particular seat for that particular term(1948-54) had SIX different Senators, and both women were for the same seat. First, Minority Leader Ken Wherry died of pneumonia in 1951. Fred Seaton was chosen to fill the seat until the 1952 special election, won by Dwight Griswold. Then HE died of a heart attack in April of 1954, so Eva Bowring was chosen. When Carl Curtis won the 1954 election, Bowring left immediately, and Hazel Abel finished the year before Curtis took over.

[@slyparis2447]

a female senator, and all you can say is "mother of the year"? hum... according to the US Senatewebsite, there've only been 58 women appointed, since the first one in 1922 (18 in the 20th c., 31 in the 21th c, and 9 accross both c.) there should be more to ask from a dame than "where is your master's office".

[@geraldkatz7986]

I know, right? Mother is so out dated and an awful thing to be. The proper term is birthing person who decided not to dispose of a clump of cells, but then I'm no biologist. /sarcasm

[@davidfritz1331]

Marilyn Bell? Didn't she used to be a telephone company? Oh no, wait... that's Maryland Bell.

[@jimmygoodrich9590]

That's Ma Bell
