00:00It's everybody's game of strategy, knowledge, and fun.
00:04It's Tic-Tac-Toe.
00:06And now, here's our host,
00:09Greg Martindale.
00:12Thank you very much, Greg Stewart.
00:14Hello, everybody.
00:16Thank you very much.
00:20I know what makes this audience so very special.
00:23The reason this audience is so special
00:25is because we have a very special guest.
00:28The reason this audience is so special is that,
00:31and when I say this, you people that I'm going to mention
00:35will probably want to applaud.
00:37The reason this audience is so special,
00:39we have a lot of people from the southern part of our country
00:41in the audience today.
00:43Hi, everybody.
00:45God bless them.
00:46Welcome home.
00:47I'm Wink Martindale, this is Tic-Tac-Toe,
00:49and this is our current champion,
00:51as announced by Jay Stewart.
00:52Greg, thank you.
00:53Here is our current champion,
00:55who brings the total in cash, $9,600.
00:58From San Francisco, he's a locksmith.
01:01Meet Rich Cunningham.
01:04And his opponent is from Skokie, Illinois,
01:08an attorney who is presently teaching
01:10at the University of San Diego.
01:12Meet Louise Greenfield.
01:19Louise Greenfield came out here
01:20like I was going to bite her or something.
01:22I'm a nice person.
01:23I just want to shake hands, a little hug,
01:24and talk about it.
01:25How are you doing?
01:26I'm all right.
01:27A little smooch for the winker.
01:28Louise, welcome back to our show as our challenger.
01:30Rich Cunningham is our current champion
01:32with $9,600 in cash and merchandise.
01:35Young man from San Francisco, I can't feature you.
01:38I don't know what the prototype
01:39for a good truck driver would be.
01:41You used to be a truck driver.
01:42Small truck, big truck, what kind of truck?
01:44It was a big truck, Wink, and I tell you,
01:46I think back on that, and I just can't figure it out.
01:49Probably the last guy on Earth you'd ever think
01:51was ever driving a 65-footer.
01:53He used to be a truck driver, and now he's in the main
01:55up in San Francisco, a jitterbugger
01:57who loves to do his thing.
01:59You ready to do your thing here?
02:00Let's go.
02:01Good luck.
02:02Here we go.
02:03Let's take a look at the categories
02:08and see what we have on the board
02:09in the way of subjects, everybody.
02:11As we begin this game, we find...
02:13Fads and Follies, Foods, Basketball, TV Stars,
02:17Africa, Joes and Josephs, One Word Names,
02:19Foreign Writers, and Chemistry.
02:21This is what the board looked like
02:22when we ended the last show.
02:23Take a look.
02:24You'll remember there were two Xs for you, Rich,
02:25and two Os for Louise on the board.
02:27$900 in the pot currently.
02:29Let's shuffle the categories around,
02:30and Rich, as our champion, you go next.
02:33Wink, it looks like I'll be taking Foods to block.
02:37All right.
02:38You do need a diagonal block.
02:39Foods the subject, and this is the question
02:40to block Louise.
02:41A four-letter word is used to describe
02:43a lavish Hawaiian feast which is totally accompanied
02:46by Polynesian entertainment.
02:48For a block, what's this feast called?
02:50A luau.
02:51A luau.
02:52Good for a block.
02:53Put an X to it.
02:54Let's move the categories around.
02:55You have $1,100 in the pot.
02:57And move to Louise.
02:58Louise, what would you like?
03:00Wink, I'd like to try Joes and Josephs.
03:02All right.
03:03A block down at the bottom on Joes and Josephs.
03:05Answer this, and you'll block Rich.
03:06This singer and guitarist named Jose,
03:08who has been blind since birth,
03:10recorded the hit song, Light My Fire.
03:12For a block of Rich, name him.
03:14Feliciano.
03:15Right.
03:16Jose Feliciano.
03:17All right, Rich, three boxes are left.
03:19The categories that'll show up
03:20could decide who wins and who loses.
03:22Let's shuffle, please.
03:23$1,300 in the pot.
03:24And, Rich, there they are.
03:26Looks like I'm gonna go with Foreign Writers to win, Wink.
03:28If you answer the question correctly on Foreign Writers,
03:30you'll win $1,500 in cash.
03:33We add that to your prior winnings.
03:35That takes you well over the $10,000 mark
03:37to exactly $11,100 in cash and prizes, Rich.
03:41For that, this question.
03:43The English author Ian Fleming
03:45introduced his most famous hero
03:47in the novel, Casino Royale.
03:49For a total of $11,100, name him.
03:52James Bond.
03:53Right, for Tic-Tac-Toe.
03:55-♪
03:57Congratulations, Rich.
03:59-♪
04:03$11,100, Rich.
04:05You have now won on Tic-Tac-Toe
04:07with the opportunity to try to beat the dragon,
04:09something you haven't been too successful at too many times.
04:11Yeah.
04:12But who knows, maybe this will be the charm for you.
04:14Congratulations, Rich.
04:16Congratulations, Rich.
04:17Louise from Skokie, Illinois,
04:18didn't do too well at the playing of the game
04:20in this particular match with Rich.
04:22But maybe next time, Louise, we can do it again.
04:24Maybe.
04:25We do have a couple of very nice prizes for you
04:26as you leave, and our thanks for being with us.
04:28Thank you.
04:29Thank you.
04:30Bye-bye.
04:31Rich, if you beat your next opponent,
04:33you're gonna win a brand-new car.
04:35Right now, we're gonna take a commercial break,
04:37and then we'll see if we can whip the dragon.
04:39We'll be right back.
04:40Rich, when you do take on your next opponent,
04:42it's gonna be a very important opponent.
04:44So far, you've defeated four people.
04:46If you defeat one more for a total of five,
04:48this is what you're gonna win.
04:50It's a brand-new car!
04:52The all-new Buick Skylark,
04:55designed for comfort and convenience
04:57with front-wheel drive,
04:58providing impressive control and traction.
05:00Furnished by Buick.
05:02And it's a brand-new car.
05:04It's a brand-new car.
05:06It's a brand-new car.
05:08How are you doing?
05:10In addition to protect your new car,
05:12it's poly-glyco-sound shield
05:14for the noisy underside of your car,
05:16not an undercoating.
05:18Poly-glyco is a sound shield,
05:19available at new car dealers only.
05:21Now back to Wink.
05:23Rich, you won $11,100 so far.
05:25Let's see if you can win a lot more by beating the dragon.
05:27Come on over to the Big Board.
05:31Welcome back.
05:34You're like my partner here.
05:36He's been over here so many times.
05:37and the numbers of various amounts of money.
05:38And of course, the dragon, the infamous dragon.
05:41All you have to do is reach $1,000 or more on the board
05:43and you'll win a very, very nice prize package.
05:46Do you enjoy dining?
05:48I sure do.
05:48San Francisco has many, many fine restaurants.
05:50Our next package, reason I ask,
05:51is designed to really satisfy your appetite.
05:54Jay, tell him about it.
05:55Right, first, Rich, you'll dine elegantly at home
05:58when you set your table with this fine dinnerware
06:00and flatware.

06:09with matching flatware.
06:10Furnished by Denby Limited.
06:12And to complete your gourmet table,
06:13it's this exquisite stemware for gracious dining.
06:17Imported stemware from the Michael C. Fina collection.
06:19Heavily silver plated in a classic design.
06:21One dozen each of water, wine, champagne, and cordial.
06:24From Michael C. Fina Company, New York City.
06:27And you and seven guests will enjoy gourmet food
06:30when you dine at one of Los Angeles' best restaurants.
06:33And you'll enjoy dinner for eight at the saloon.
06:37And Rich, now that you've enjoyed domestic cuisine,
06:42you're gonna be able to savor international dishes
06:45because we are flying you to Rome, Paris, and London.
06:50First stop, romantic Rome, where you'll see the Colosseum
06:57and St. Peter's Basilica.
06:59And then on to Paris, to the Eiffel Tower and the Louvre.
07:03And then watch the changing of the guards
07:06at Buckingham Palace in London.
07:08It'll be 15 unforgettable days.
07:10Furnished by Club Universe.
07:12And Rich, this special dining package is worth,
07:14in cash and prizes, over $3,600.
07:19Beautiful, Rome, Paris, and London, huh?
07:21Oh, what a great trip.
07:24Stay away from the dragon up there, Rich,
07:25or you lose everything.
07:26Tick and Tack automatically give you the dough.
07:28Now let's cover everything up on the board,
07:30move them all around.
07:30Now, audience, he has nobody here with him
07:32to help him make these decisions.
07:34And these are giant decisions you're gonna be making.
07:36You make the first one,
07:37and then we'll ask for some help, all right?
07:39I'm gonna go with some help right now,
07:40and we're gonna go with four.
07:42Number four, all righty.
07:43Behind number four, what do we find?
07:45Is it money, is it a tick, or is it a tack, a dragon?
07:48Oh.
07:49Listen, I don't know who you went to for your help,
07:51but that kind of help you can do without.
07:53What do you mean we're going to get some help right now?
07:56They're fired.
07:57Yeah, really?
07:58Audience, now dismiss.
07:59No, no, it was really up to you.
08:00You can change it, you know.
08:02Can I really?
08:03No, you could have.
08:04You didn't, but you could have.
08:05Let's look at the rest of the board.
08:07He almost had a heart flutter there.
08:09Tick in the middle, tack up there, top left.
08:11That would have given you an automatic win.
08:13But let's forget this for the time being.
08:15Is it easy to forget a trip to London, Paris, and Rome?
08:17Not that easy.
08:18However, you do have a nice, tidy sum of money,
08:21$11,100 in cash and merchandise.
08:24Plus, if you win this very critical game
08:27that's coming up now,
08:28if you beat this next opponent,
08:29you're going to win what?
08:31A brand new car.
08:32All right, let's get over there and see if we can do it.
08:34Here we go.
08:35All right, James Ford, who's his next opponent?
08:39Our next player is a former competitive bodybuilder,
08:42Wink, who now runs his own gym,
08:45and he's also a science fiction writer.
08:47Meet Harvey Geek.
08:49Hello, Harvey.
08:50Hi, Wink.
08:50When's the last time you saw a body like this?
08:54Sickening, isn't it?
08:56Tell me about bodybuilding, Harvey.
08:58Come on.
08:59Well, for me, Wink, bodybuilding's an art, you know,
09:01and I like to think of myself as a sculptor
09:03in that my body is my clay and my barbells and dumbbells
09:06and not all those machines are my tools.
09:08But what makes you think that?
09:10Well, I'm a bodybuilder,
09:12and I like to think of myself as a sculptor.
09:14I like to think of myself as a sculptor
09:16in that my body is my clay and my barbells and dumbbells
09:19and not all those machines are my tools.
09:22But what makes it perfect?
09:23Is it the biggest muscles?
09:25Is that what you're looking for?
09:26Well, Wink, size is not what makes perfection.
09:28What makes perfection is proportion and symmetry
09:30and the way it all kind of comes together
09:32in a total presentation.
09:35Did you, Harvey, win any titles when you were competing?
09:37Yeah, Wink, I won quite a few,
09:39one of which was Most Muscular Man in Western America.
09:43You know, you're just, you're extremely lucky
09:45that I happened to be on the East Coast
09:47and if I ever take my coat off, it'll kill you.
09:49It'll just kill you.
09:50Remember, Harvey, I mean, Mr. Keith, sir,
09:55if your luck just happens to run bad
09:56in the playing of this game, sir,
09:58I'm just the person who asks the questions, sir.
10:01Just, you know, always remember,
10:03I will always be your friend
10:04when the rest of these people will go,
10:05tss, tss, tss, tss.
10:07All right, let's look at the rest of the board.
10:08Here we go.
10:09The categories for this game between Rich and Harvey
10:11are royalty, mixed drinks, maps of states, famous firsts,
10:15big and little, spirit of 76,
10:18we have funny men, famous buildings, and art.
10:20All right, critical game, Rich.
10:21If you beat Harvey, the big man, would you dare?
10:23Would you dare beat him, Harvey?
10:25All right, Rich, if you beat him, though,
10:27you'll win a new car.
10:28Let's begin.
10:29Let's try maps of states for starters.
10:31Top right, maps of states.
10:32Here's your question.
10:33Take a look at this map of the United States, Rich.
10:36A tourist in this Midwestern state
10:38might hear a loyal Hoosier singing the state song
10:41entitled On the Banks of the Wabash.
10:43Name this state.
10:45Indiana.
10:45Mike, back home again in Indiana.
10:48Put him next to it.
10:49Let's move the categories around.
10:50Now we've put $200 in the pot,
10:52and Harvey Keefe has his first shot at our subject board.
10:57I'd like to try royalty, Mike.
10:58Royalty it is.
10:59Bottom left-hand corner, your question, Harvey.
11:01This British ruler,
11:02who was the brother of Richard the Lionhearted,
11:05is considered one of the worst English kings.
11:07He was forced by his own barons
11:09to sign the Magna Carta in 1215.
11:11Name this king.
11:12King John.
11:13Right, good for an O.
11:15The O goes into box royalty.
11:16We shuffle the categories again.
11:18Now we have $400 in the pot,
11:20and Sir Richard Cunningham.
11:23Let's go back to maps of states in the upper left one.
11:25Top left, maps of states again.
11:27Take a look at this map of the Eastern United States, Rich.
11:30The motto of this granite state is live free or die.
11:33Name this state.
11:36New Hampshire.
11:36Right, good for another X on the board.
11:38New Hampshire.
11:40Put an X there.
11:40Let's shuffle the categories again.
11:42$600 in the pot as it gets bigger.
11:44All right, Harvey.
11:45Well, it looks like I have to go to maps of states
11:46to block, Wayne.
11:47Right, you need a block.
11:48So answer this and you'll block Rich.
11:50Take a look at this map of the United States, Harvey.
11:53This state was the birthplace of such notable Americans
11:55as Henry Ford and Charles A. Lindbergh.
11:58For a block, name that state.
11:59Minnesota?
12:00No, it's Michigan.
12:02State of Michigan.
12:03So let's return in just a moment,
12:06see if you can continue in your quest for that new car.
12:08Rich, we'll be right back.
12:09Don't go away.
12:10All right.
12:16Back to the board and the game at hand.
12:17Rich, still trying to beat Harvey and win a new car.
12:20$600 in the pot.
12:22Let's shuffle the categories around and continue.
12:25After that shuffle, Rich, it'll be your turn to select.
12:28Wink, I'm gonna go for mixed drinks, the win and the car.
12:32All right.
12:33That's my line, Rich.
12:35If you answer this question correctly,
12:37you'll win $800 in cash.
12:39You'll win a new car,
12:40and that would bring your total winnings, Rich Cunningham,
12:42to a total of $17,200.
12:46Here's your question on the subject of mixed drinks.
12:50This popular spirit, which is distilled from sugar cane,
12:55was once a favorite of pirates.
12:57Today, it's mixed with fruit juices
12:59to create such drinks as a Mai Tai and Planter's Punch.
13:04For a car and a total of $17,200, name it.
13:09The Demon Rum.
13:10Yes, or Tic Tac Doughnut Bar.
13:12Yes.
13:13Yes.
13:14Yes.
13:14Yes.
13:15Yes.
13:16Yes.
13:17Yes.
13:18Yes.
13:19Yes.
13:19Yes.
13:20Yes.
13:21Yes.
13:22Yes.
13:23Yes.
13:24Yes.
13:24Yes.
13:25Yes.
13:26Yes.
13:27Yes.
13:28Yes.
13:29Yes.
13:29Yes.
13:30Yes.
13:31Yes.
13:32Yes.
13:33Yes.
13:34And tonight, on show California,
13:34they have been known
13:36in San Francisco to tip one every now and then,
13:38but I ask you, does this man look like a young gentleman
13:41who would know anything about mixed drinks?
13:43How about that?
13:44Rich, how did you know the answer to that?
13:47I think I thought of Blackbeard, when you said pirates,
13:49and sitting on the edge of his ship,
13:51swelling the way on the rum.
13:52What you're saying is that,
13:53it's certainly not because
13:54you've ever tipped a little glass before, are they?
13:56Of course not.
13:56Of course not.
13:57Of course not.
13:58Hey, Rich, congratulations.
13:59You have won yourself a car.
14:00Is this something you can use in the future?
14:02I sure can, Wick,
14:03because the doors are rotting off my car right now.
14:05They are rusted away.
14:07You got a chance to beat the dragon again.
14:08$17,200 in cash and merchandise so far.
14:11Congratulations.
14:12Harvey, one answer from you.
14:14I want to ask you about something.
14:15I used to lift weights a little bit when I was younger.
14:17Is it true what I hear that if you lift weights
14:21and you build your body up,
14:22if you stop lifting weights further along,
14:24you get flabby and your muscles just go to nothing?
14:27Muscle can't turn to fat.
14:28You know, fat and muscle
14:29have two different chemical compositions
14:31and you could probably just as well
14:32try and turn lead to gold.
14:34They're two different things.
14:35Because every morning when I get up and look in the mirror,
14:36I wonder what happened when.
14:38Harvey, we have a couple of very nice prizes for you
14:40to leave us and Godspeed to you.
14:41Thank you for being with us on Tic Tac Dough.
14:43See you later.
14:45A lot of fun.
14:46Okay, Rich, come on over.
14:47Here we go.
14:47Here we are back again, another shot.
14:54And of course, in a moment,
14:56you're going to see that dragon jumping all over the board.
14:58You are going to be going for dinnerware and flatware
15:00and stemware and dinner for eight at the saloon.
15:03You're going to go for a trip to Rome
15:06and then we're going to fly you to Paris
15:07and then we're going to fly you to London.
15:09These are prizes which come to over $3,600.
15:15Does that sound like an exciting prospect to you?
15:17I'm waiting if I can keep that dragon out of there.
15:19I hate to remind you of this.
15:20Last time you called out a number
15:22and the very first number you called was the dragon.
15:24You feel luckier this time?
15:26Yes, I think I do.
15:27All right, you're going to see him jumping
15:28all over the board now
15:29and then we're going to say goodbye to him.
15:31Say goodbye to him right now.
15:33Audibly, go ahead.
15:34Goodbye, dragon.
15:34Goodbye, dragon.
15:35Can you imagine a grown man standing here
15:37talking to a dragon up there on the board?
15:39All right, there are the numbers, one to nine.
15:40Let's begin, Rich.
15:42Number three.
15:43All right, number three on the board,
15:44top right-hand corner.
15:45Let's bring him on home this time.
15:47Tick.
15:47Add that to 10 and you got a win.
15:49Look out here in the audience.
15:50Look at all these numbers.
15:51What do you say?
15:52What do you see that you like?
15:53Number seven.
15:54He likes the looks of number seven.
15:56Number seven, lucky seven.
15:58Down the bottom left-hand, $500.
16:00He needs another 500 attack to come by number six.
16:03Number four.
16:04He's going to go with number four.
16:05He thinks four is going to give him an automatic win.
16:07500 attack will do it.
16:09The dragon.
16:11Boy, that is a shocking shame, isn't it?
16:14Paris, London, Rome, goodbye.
16:16Goodbye, the dragon's going to take the trip.
16:18Wow, let's look at the...
16:20If that were possible, it would be true.
16:22Let's look at the rest of the board.
16:23You had Tick.
16:23Where was Tack?
16:25Right over here under it at number six.
16:27However, let's think the positive way.
16:29Let's talk about what you've won.
16:30Cash and prizes, including the new car.
16:32You can't be too unhappy.
16:33I sure can't wait.
16:34You have a total of $17,200,
16:37and we congratulate you,
16:39even though you weren't too good here.
16:40Let's get back over there and get another game underway.
16:44All right, James, go and bring this guy some luck.
16:46Okay, coming up now,
16:47we have a sales representative for a teaching journal.
16:50He enjoys jogging, skiing, and country music.
16:54Meet Sandy Robbins.
16:55Hi, Sandy.
16:56Hi.
16:57My wife's name's Sandy.
16:58I feel right at home with you.
16:59Fantastic.
17:00Let me...
17:01Shame, shame.
17:02Producer, shame, shame.
17:03Don't say that.
17:04Tell me about your interest in country music.
17:06Sandy?
17:06Well, it makes me feel like I'm back
17:08in the South again in Tennessee.
17:10I'm from Tennessee too.
17:11What part of the state are you from?
17:13In Grundy County in the Cumberland Mountains,
17:15which is just like a little spot of hillbilly heaven.
17:17Hillbilly heaven.
17:18Tell me more about it.
17:20Well, it's a little bit like a hillbilly heaven.
17:22It's a little bit like a hillbilly heaven.
17:24Tell me more about it.
17:25Well, it's up in the mountains.
17:26One leg is shorter than the other.
17:28And I like country music because it seems
17:31to reflect the slowness and the 33 RPM of the movement.
17:36And 78 is what we are in Los Angeles.
17:39So I like the South.
17:41We're going much faster out here
17:42than they are back there in Tennessee.
17:43Sure do, too fast.
17:44What's your favorite country star?
17:45Your favorite country artist?
17:46Willie Nelson.
17:47All right.
17:48He won't show up on this board.
17:49I can assure you.
17:50No, no.
17:50Let's take a look at the categories, Rich and Sandy.
17:52Take a look.
17:53The subjects for this game are questions
17:54will be wrapped around comedy movies,
17:58faces, World War II, clothes styles, boxing,
18:01China, young stars, science fiction,
18:04and a secret category.
18:06That could be any category at all.
18:08And if you answer the question correctly,
18:10the pot will automatically double.
18:12So it could really go up in a hurry.
18:13All right, Rich, select.
18:14Let's start with World War II in the upper right.
18:16All righty, World War II, the subject.
18:18Rich, of the three major Axis rulers,
18:20only the Emperor of Japan remained in power
18:22throughout World War II.
18:23Name him.
18:24Hirohito.
18:25Got it, that's right.
18:26Hirohito.
18:27So our next goes there.
18:28Let's move the categories around.
18:30And our little friend from Tennessee, Sandy Robbins,
18:33has her first shot at our board.
18:34Sandy?
18:35Sandy Robbins is not too sure about China,
18:37but I think I'll go with him.
18:38All right, China in the center box.
18:39We're $300 to the pot, Sandy.
18:41Communist China shares a common border
18:43with 12 countries or regions.
18:45And I want you to name two.
18:47Here's some time to think about that.
18:50All right, Sandy.
18:51Communist China shares a common border
18:53with 12 countries or regions.
18:55I want you to name two for that center box.
18:59Romania.
19:01No, I'm sorry.
19:01That is not one of the 12.
19:04So you've missed the question.
19:05There are several others.
19:07I'm not gonna run down the whole 12.
19:08Afghanistan, Burma, Laos, North Korea,
19:10out of the 12.
19:11I'm not gonna run down the whole 12.
19:13I'm not gonna run down the whole 12.
19:15I'm not gonna run down the whole 12.
19:16I'm not gonna run down the whole 12.
19:18Laos, North Korea, out of Mongolia,
19:20India, Nepal, and others.
19:22Et al. Et al.
19:23All right, let's move the categories around.
19:25$200 in the pot.
19:26And Rich, it'll be your turn to select.
19:29Rich.
19:33Wink, let's go down to World War II
19:34in the bottom left corner.
19:35Okay, here's your question on World War II.
19:37One famous symbol, which consisted of a cross
19:39with bent arms, was found on ancient coins
19:41and in North American Indian culture.
19:43It reappeared before and during World War II
19:45as the symbol of a European nation.
19:47Name the symbol.
19:48The swastika.
19:49Correct, swastika.
19:51So we put it next there.
19:52Let's move the categories around.
19:53$200 more into the pot.
19:55Sandy, your turn again.
19:57I think I have to go to Young Stars.
19:58Young Stars in the center again,
19:59worth $300 to the pot.
20:01Sandy, this British-born child star of the 40s
20:03appeared in the films How Green Was My Valley,
20:05Lassie Come Home, and My Friend Flicka.
20:08In 1968, he starred as a monkey
20:10in a popular science fiction movie.
20:12Now, for a block, I want you to name him
20:14and then name the film in which he played a monkey.
20:16Think about that.
20:18♪♪
20:26Sandy, can you name the star?
20:28Mickey Dolan.
20:29Pardon?
20:30Mickey Dolan.
20:31No, Rodney McDowell.
20:31Rodney McDowell.
20:32And the film in which he played a monkey
20:34was Planet of the Apes.
20:36We're gonna take a commercial break
20:37and then we'll be right back.
20:38♪♪
20:46We're running a little late.
20:47We'll see you on the next show.
20:48Bye, everybody.
