Boy, Mark really keeps up with things,
asking me backstage just before he was introduced,
"How much did I win on the last show?"
I said, "Oh, about $50 or $60."
Mark, it's $1,600.
Congratulations. How you feel today?
Oh, Wink, I'm really feeling great.
Are you already set and you feel able
to take on our Dragon and do him in?
Well, I didn't bring my lance with me,
mighty blow, Mark.
Come on over here.
[audience applauding]
One fell swoop.
Right over here on this side. There we go.
Maybe you'll become very accustomed to this position.
Alright?
Behind the numbers on the Board
are various amounts of money and, of course,
you'll see the Dragon there in the center.
All you have to do, Mark, is reach $1,000 or more,
and you're gonna pick up a very nice prize package.
Now, for this particular prize package,
we're gonna give you gifts to let you enjoy
outdoor living in a variety of ways.

view magnificent wildlife and nature at its finest.
You'll have eight exciting days,
compliments of Tic Tac Dough.
This outdoor package is worth,
[audience applauding]
Okay, Mark, let's scoot over this way just a little bit.
Avoid the Dragon, remember, or you lose everything.
Get the Tic and the Tac,
you automatically get the Dough.
So, Mr. Computer, let's cover everything up on the Board,
move them all around.
And you're gonna see nine numbers.
And you know how it works.
Any number from one to nine.
Okay, let's just take a stab at Number 1.
Number 1, right at the top of the Board.
[audience applauding]
He doesn't have anybody here,
so we're gonna ask these people out here
to give you a little advice.
What do you think the audi...
Look at young man right there in the front.
He looks like he knows what he's doing.
I don't know...
Well, we'll give it a try.
Alright.
Seven.
Alright. That young man right there on the front row
says, "Take Number 7.
I know what I'm talking about."
What's behind Number 7?
$400.
Maybe you better stick with him.
[audience applauding]
Okay. Now, you got $500.
The next call could be the Dragon.
You can stop and take the $500, or continue.
We haven't had anybody stop in a long time.
No, I think I'm gonna go for it.
Let's try...
Alright.
The little kid in the front row
who was right last time, said 4,
but this gentleman, Mark himself, takes Number 2.
Let's see if you were right.
[audience applauding]
Add it to Tac or come up with another 500-dollar bill,
you got a win.
Just for fun, see what that little guy says right there.
Okay. He was right before.
to go with him now.
Well, we'll try it, anyway.
Alright.
He's going to go with that young man.
Let's see if he's right. He needs $500 or Tac.
You got it! He was right!
[audience applauding]
You know that guy?
No, but I think I wanna get to know him better.
I asked Mark if he knows that young fellow
with that striped shirt on the front row.
He says, "No, but I tell you one thing.
[audience laughing]
Holler out your name. What's your name?
Doug.
Hello, Doug. Thank you, Doug.
Hi, Doug.
[audience laughing]
Well, of course, we'll leave that up to him, Doug.
Alright. Now, let's take a look at the Board.
Three, five, no... hold on a second.
Let's go back out to the audience,
see if he knows where the Dragon is.
everything else on this Board.
Alright, Doug, what do you think?
Three.
Number 3. Was it behind Number 3?
No, $300 was behind Number 3.
Okay, let's look at 5, 6, 8, 9.
I heard somebody say Number 5. Let's look at...
There it was behind Number 6.
However, you got all you needed.
I got it.
You got the right numbers on the Board.
Thanks to a little help from Doug in the front row.
And you have cash and prizes now, Mark,
[audience applauding]
a commercial break,
and then we'll be back to take on a new opponent.
We'll be right back.
[audience applauding]
Defeat four more for a total of five,
and win one of these. Bob, tell him about it.
(Bob) It's a brand-new car!
Buick Century two-door coupe,
the midsize personal luxury car with a spacious,
comfortable interior and classic exterior.

In addition, Rain Dance Car Wax
lasts longer than the leading car waxes.
Water beading proves it. DuPont guarantees it.
Thank you very much, Bob.
Now, Mark, if you're all set and ready to go,
let's meet a new opponent for you.
Good luck in this next game. Bob Hilton, who's next?
(Bob) She's a personnel director
who enjoys golf, reading and flying.
Meet Diana Leventry.
[audience applauding]
Hi, Wink.
Very nice to have you with us on Tic Tac Dough.
You have a great interest in flying.
Tell us about that.
I really enjoy flying. My husband's a pilot.
Are you a pilot yourself?
No, I'm afraid I'm too chicken for that.
What do you particularly like about flying?
Well, I just really enjoy the sensation
of being up there, being free,
and enjoying looking down at a quiet, peaceful world.
I always love flying.
As a matter of fact, I wanna be married on a plane.
I always wanted a double ring ceremony.
[audience laughing]
Double wing, double ring. See, you get it?
(Audience) Aw.
are hitting for a nosedive?
[audience laughing]
Alright. Let's tako■f for the next game.
Here we go with the categories.
They are as follows, Mark and Diane:
Odd Facts, Ships, Spelling, Famous Buildings,
Funny Ladies, Maps of States, The '50s,
Popular Music, and Opera.
[audience laughing]
Mark, select.
Okay, let's try...
Hmm, let's try The '50s.
The 1950s, in the lower left-hand corner of the Board.
Mark, in 1953, Dag Hammarskj ld
became a worldwide figure
when he assumed an influential position
in an international organization.
Name this position.
United Nations.
Be more specific.
Right.
[audience applauding]
I had to be more specific with you,
and you had to be more specific with us.
We put an X there. $200 to the pot.
Let's shuffle the categories around.
And, Diana, it is your turn.
Okay. I'll try Ships in the center box.
It's worth $300 to the pot, Diana,
and here's the question:
I'll give you the names of two famous
American warships, and you tell me the war
in which they gained their fame.
One, the Duras, which was renamed
the Bonhomme Richard.
And the battleship USS Missouri.
Think about that for a few seconds.
[clock ticking]
Names of two famous American warships.
Diana, you tell me the war in which they gained their fame.
The Duras, which was renamed the Bonhomme Richard.
The Revolutionary War?
Right. The battleship USS ssouri.
Right.
[audience applauding]
So, we put an O there. $300 more bucks into the pot.
Let's shuffle the categories and get back to Mark Leinwand.
Okay, Mark?
Okay. Let's take Funny Ladies.
Funny Ladies, first time in the category
with this question, Mark.
Funny ladies Esther Rolle, Charlotte Rae and Shirley Booth
all have had the same occupation on various television shows.
Name that occupation.
You got it.
[audience applauding]
Another X on the Board. Let's shuffle the categories.
And, Diana, you're next. $700 in the pot.
Odd Facts to block.
Yeah, you need to block him with the correct answer
to ts on Odd Facts.
Diana, he was the last president to be born a British subject,
and the first president to die in office
after serving for only 30 days.
Now, for a block, was he John Adams,
William Harrison or Andrew Johnson?
I'm sorry, I did not catch the question.
Okay, I will repeat it for you.
He was the last president to be born a British subject,
and the first president to die in office
after serving for only 30 days.
Was he John Adams, William Harrison
or Andrew Johnson?
No, William Henry Harrison.
Served 30 days.
Alright, let's move the categories around.
$700 in the pot. Mark, it's your turn.
Uh, I'm gonna go...
I'm gonna go with Pop Music in the upper right...
Yes.
He selects Pop Music on the Board.
Mark, during their long career as a top rock group,
this British band has recorded such albums
as "Out of Our Heads," "Beggars Banquet"
and "Exile on Main St." Name this group.
Right.
Good for another X on the Board.
[audience applauding]
$900.
In case all of you missed this on the last show,
I gotta point out that that is a pretty good category
for Mark because he is an attorney who handles
the business of a lot of rock bands.
Mark, that just happened to come up for you there.
$900 in the pot.
Let's shuffle the categories around.
And, Diana, we're back to you.
Okay, we'll try Famous Buildings to block.
Famous Buildings. Again, for a block.
Here's your question, Diana.
This famous indoor arena, which is located in New York,
has been the site of a national political convention,
a rock star's wedding and many boxing championships.
To block Mark, name it.
Right.
[audience applauding]
Madison Square Garden in New York.
Put an O there.
Four boxes left on the Board, Mark.
We're gonna shuffle for you to pick
from these subjects. $1,100 in the pot.
Well, now, I will go to block Diana
with Famous Buildings.
Famous Buildings, this time, to block her.
Mark, answer this, you'll block Diana.
The ruins of the Temple of Apollo
are located in an ancient Roman city,
which was buried under volcanic ash
about 1,900 years ago.
For a block, name this city.
Right.
[audience applauding]
$200 more to the pot. Three boxes left, Diana.
Here's the shuffle for you to pick.
The subjects are:
Famous Buildings, Opera and Odd Facts.
Alright.
Answer this correctly on Odd Facts,
and you'll block Mark.
Diana, the United States Navy names its destroyers
after naval heroes.
For a block, what are United States battleships
traditionally named after?
Yes, that's right.
[audience applauding]
Put an O there.
And another $200 in the pot.
Okay. The moment of truth is getting closer.
We're down to two boxes now.
Anything could happen in this game.
The categories that'll appear now
will determine what happens.
Let's shuffle.
$1,500 in the pot. There are the subjects.
Mark, select.
I'm gonna try for the win with Funny Ladies.
Funny ladies in the top left-hand corner of the Board.
Mark, if you answer this question correctly,
you'll win $1,700, and that,
combined with your prior winnings,
would bring your total to $6,900.
Here's the question, Mark.
The question, Mark:
This comedienne won a Best Actress Oscar
for her performance as *** Brice
in the 1968 film "Funny Girl."
For Tic Tac Dough and $6,900, name her.
Right. You got it.
[audience applauding]
You had a couple of ways to go.
You could have gone for a block with Popular Music.
But, of course, naturally you went for the win up there,
in the top left-hand corner of the Board, and you got it.
So, that gives you $1,700, and a grand total now,
Mark, of $6,900.
And you're playing the game very nicely.
Thank you, Wink.
Give you another shot at the Dragon shortly.
Diana Leventry, it was a good game.
You came out on the short end on that game,
but we do have a couple of nice prizes for you,
lot of fun, Wink.
Thank you so much.
We're gonna take a commercial break,
and then we'll be back to see if Mark can beat
the Dragon again.
[audience applauding]
for Doug's help there on the front row.
He seemed to be pretty good at calling out numbers a while ago,
without finding the Dragon.
So, let's get back to it since he's your only help.
Come on over here.
[audience applauding]
If you don't have anybody in your family here,
might as well pick out somebody, huh?
Anybody at random. Do you like to entertain?
Oh, depends on what it is I'm entertaining.
Let me tell you why I asked you.
Because our... Who or what or whatever.
Hopefully you do like entertainment
'cause our next prize package is gonna be filled with gifts
to help you entertain in not just ordinary style,
but I'm talking about high-style entertaining.
Here's Bob Hilton to tell you about it.
to help you serve in style,
it's these elegant crystal serving accessories.
Leonard Silver's genuine hand-cut full lead crystal.
Featuring a vase, decanters, bowls
and many other sparkling crystal accessories for your home.
All furnished by Leonard Silver Manufacturing Company.
And you can serve gourmet food
on this fine dinnerware.
Denby's Vanilla Stoneware.
Handcrafted in England, casual elegance
with guaranteed durability.
Goes from freezer to oven, even microwave.
With matching flatware. Furnished by Denby Limited.
And for liquid refreshments,
it's this exquisite silver punch bowl.
This elegant 15-inch punch bowl set
in luxurious silver plate in the designer collection of fine silver.
From the Michael C. Fina Company, New York City.
And, Mark, after dinner, you and your guests
can settle down with some fine entertainment
as you all enjoy your own widescreen TV.
It's a giant projection TV set from Muntz,
the originator of self-contained projection television.
It has remote control, electronic tuning and a 50-inch diagonal screen
for your home-viewing enjoyment.
Furnished by Muntz.
This entertainment package is worth, in cash and prizes,
[audience applauding]
Okay. Let's get back over this way just a little bit,
so we can get closer to that Board.
Since he's your friend, you're gonna see
a Dragon jumping all over the Board.
Remember, the idea is to get to $1,000 or more
without finding the Dragon,
and you'll win all of those nice prizes.
By the way, you've heard of the designated hitter
Yeah.
Alright. We are going to use little Doug out there again
in this game, if it's okay with you,
as a designated number caller, alright?
or go on your own advice.
He was pretty lucky for you a while ago.
You wanna go with him first,
or you wanna call out the first number?
I'm gonna let Doug choose the first number.
Alright, Doug, what do you think?
He like the looks... What?
to 3 there for a moment.
Number 7.
Let's take a look behind Number 7.
Good lucky 7.
Aw.
Now, Doug's gonna go home.
That's okay.
for me last time.
Excellent a while ago.
Let's look at the rest of the Board,
and see that, indeed, a lot of different
denominations of money were up there.
Tic and Tac would have given you the automatic win.
But ain't nobody's gonna take away what you've already won,
and that's a considerable amount of money
in cash and prizes, $6,900.
[audience applauding]
Now, don't get down and out, lift up your head and shout,
let's keep it up. Get over there.
Hey, Bob Hilton, who's next?
(Bob) He's a lieutenant colonel in the Air Force
who enjoys golf, running and rock and roll music.
Meet Ron Morris.
[audience applauding]
We're looking at an Air Force lieutenant colonel
who loves rock and roll music.
Tell me about that, Ron, because, I don't know,
it just seems rather incongruous
that you like rock and roll.
It's the beat, Wink.
When I was in high school and college,
I play the bass drum in the band,
[audience laughing]
Somehow, it looks kind of funny to see
an Air Force lieutenant colonel standing there saying,
"I like to go boom-boom-boom-boom."
[audience laughing]
Let me ask you this:
Do you ever go to rock concerts?
Yes, I do.
And sometimes I feel a little strange
[audience laughing]
Which rock and roll groups
does an Air Force lieutenant colonel prefer?
I like the Jefferson Airplane and The Beatles.
[audience applauding]
Eagles?
Well, The Beatles and the Eagles.
The Beatles and the Eagles.
I suppose your favorite song is "Up, Up and Away," right?
The Fifth Dimension.
Yeah. So, we'll forget it. Just forget I said that.
Alright.
Doug is his son? Is that a fact?
Does that mean that Mark is going to lose
[audience laughing]
I didn't realize that.
The fellow that's been helping you, Mark,
is Ron's son. How old is he, Ron?
He's 10.
The first time Mark went and played our game
with the Board to try to beat the Dragon,
Doug did pretty well that time.
Last time, he didn't do so well.
How do you feel? You feel real, real lucky now?
Alright.
Doug, you won't be able to help him very much up here,
but perhaps if your dad wins, why, perhaps you can call out
the right numbers for him.
Who are the rest of the people in the family, Ron?
I noticed he's not alone.
Hi, Linda.
Don't worry, Linda, we're gonna give you
some equal time, honey. Alright?
And the wife, too, for that matter.
Let's take a look at the Board now,
and check the categories we're gonna be dealing with.
TV Roles, Presidents, Boxing, Foods,
Fads and Follies, Foreign Authors,
Potluck Pictures, Famous Pairs, and Zoology.
Mark, select, please.
Um, let's start in the lower left-hand corner
Alrighty.
Mark, let's begin by taking a look at this picture.
In the 1971 horror movie, this popular actor
played the role of The Abominable Doctor Phibes.
Name the actor.
That is Vincent Price.
[audience applauding]
Good for a first X on the Board and $200 in the pot.
Let's shuffle.
And, Ron, as you know, every round,
we shuffle them all around, they take different positions.
Check the Board and select for us.
I'll go in the center, Wink, with Foods.
Want to go with Foods. Alrighty, Ron.
I'll describe two popular but expensive dessert treats
and you name them.
First, this dessert sounds like a celebration,
and is prepared with cherries,
sugar and flaming knish.
Two, this dessert bears the name of an American state
and consists of cake, ice cream and baked meringue.
Here's your extra time to think about that.
[clock ticking]
Ron, for that center box on Foods.
This dessert sounds like a celebration,
and is prepared with cherries,
sugar and flaming knish. Name it.
Yes, cherries jubilee.
This dessert bears the name of an American state
and consists of cake, ice cream and baked meringue.
Right, baked Alaska.
[audience applauding]
That man knows about his goodies.
So, we put an O there, $300 more to the pot.
And let's take a break for a commercial,
and the two of them will continue.
[audience applauding]
in our battle out here, but you feel at home now
I really do, Wink.
Isn't it, Colonel?
I like this. Yeah, that's nice.
First time I've ever seen one real close-up.
Can I feel that? Yeah. That's real, too, folks.
That is the real Magilla.
Thanks a lot.
He keeps it shined up, too. Yeah, very nice.
You look so young to be an attorney.
I can't believe that you're already
a gentleman with a shingle hanging on.
Well, I'm a lot older than I look, Wink.
You may be older by the time you get over this show.
We'll see you next time with more of Tic Tac Dough.
Bye-bye, everybody.
