The guy running on stage is talked about in "The Age of Television" RCA LP (1971) by Arlene Francis. She commented that in those days of live TV, it was a wonder that more things like that didn't happen! He was on then off the stage before anyone could even react to what happened.

Happened twice on What's My Line? I believe. There was also an incident with someone running onto the set of CBS Evening News with Walter Cronkite in 1973 (I watched that one happen live as a 10 year old and was surprised and shocked). Probably happened at other times, on national broadcasts, but never heard of any others.

Governor Edmondson was a WWII US Army Air Forces veteran and an Okie from Muskogee. He was and currently still is the youngest elected Governor in the history of Oklahoma. This was partly due to him becoming a success prosecutor after the war, being elected The Tulsa County Attorney in 1954 and then re-elected in 1956 at the age of 29. The most notable legislation he pushed through was repealing the prohibition of the sale of alcohol. He also had a short run in the senate and surprisingly voted in favor of the 1964 Civil Rights Act. After he lost his re-election campaign he went back to being an attorney and spending time with his wife Jeanette Bartleson until he sadly died at the young age of 41 from a heart attack.

It's hard to imagine, but Oklahoma had a state law against the sale of liquor statewide that was finally repealed in 1959. The sale of oackaged liquor for off-premises consumption is still illegal on Sundays, election day and certain legal holidays, except for beer of low-alcohol content. I have to say that liquor laws vary so much state by state in this country it's hard to keep track of.

I grew up in Tulsa, OK. We did not have legal liquor-by-the-drink until it was finally voter-approved in 1985. Until then, if you wanted to have drinks served to you at a bar or restaurant you had to bring in your own bottle and the establishment would keep it behind their bar with a label on it bearing your name. Of course, nobody did this, the bars just put phony names on the bottles they poured from, and everybody knew. We referred to it as "liquor-by-the-wink". Occasionally, the ABC would gently raid a random bar after sending in undercover agents to order a drink and have one served to them by an unwitting bartender and waiter, both of whom were arrested and taken to jail until the bar sent out someone to bail them out. I saw it happen one evening at a restaurant where I worked. Funny thing was, the waiter smelled a rat when the agents came in but he served them anyway. It was all so embarrassingly stupid, the law.

The term of reference of "southern state" is that of a state which was part of the Confederacy. Oklahoma did not become a state until 1907. Although in fairness when it was "Indian Territory" at the time, there were battles which took place their during the Civil War and the tribes present were either aligned with the Confederacy (mostly Choctaw and Chickasaw) and the Union (mostly the Creek and Cherokee with some Cherokees being with the South). Note that the Oklahoma governor agrees with the assessment that his state is not a "southern state".

States that allowed slavery before the Civil War but did not secede officially (MO and KY sent representatives to the Confederate Congress and set up a state government as if they seceded).

Being from and living in Oklahoma, there has always been some confusion about what constitutes a "southern state". I believe that the reference in "What's My Line" was that of a state which existed during the Civil War. And while the Indian Territory as it was called at that time did have numerous battles, it was not a state at that time. Bennet's follow-up question of whether it is a "border" state confirms that they were thinking along the line of states that existed during the Civil War.

Ireland. He was the host of the British version of What’s My Line. Then again one would have to be paying attention to the entire show to gain that information. “Dumb questions,” eh?

Someone down below said that the Police found out who that guy was. I was like, the POLICE?! He only went out there because he was such a big fan of the mystery guest. I hope he didn't get arrested for that!

@Krista Brewer Whatever his intentions were, he shouldn’t of ran up there. By the applause, I’d say most, if not all those in the theater that day lauded Milton Berle. Yet they all managed to hold their composure and maintain a certain level of decorum that is expected in a setting such as a live taping. This man jumped on stage. No one knew what his intentions were. So I believe it was rather apt that police intervention was sought.

Dorothy asked if Berle's wife had a lot to do with his career -- Gracie Allen. And he said NO. That is sexist bs

@jc Gracie Allen was George Burns’ wife; whom I believe Dorothy Kilgallen thought was the mystery guest; hence the question.

LOL! Gracie Allen was the famous wife of George Burns, not Milton Berle. Ms. Kilgallen probably thought that Burns was the mystery guest. Based upon what she was implying by the question, Berle's answer was correct. His wife had nothing, professionally, to do with his career. It was an innocent and accurate answer; he obviously wanted to be careful not to mislead the panelists.
