Rockefeller do you have something to do with food or drink yes me very good is it food no very bad three down seven to go jelly burger I'll bet you have something to do with drink yes this is what we call our sparkling now is this it may I ask if you would find this liquid that you deal with would you find it ever in an icebox or a refrigerator yes it would it be essential to drink this drink cold to enjoy it to its fullest no British four down and six to go miss French well is one thing I hate is hot beer so I'm just going to rise above it and not talk about beer is it in the wine family no five got in five to go mr. Senna stooped down where our language is so is it in the beer family no it is not a dentist out in four to go with Kilgallon does it mr. rockefeller have any alcoholic content whatsoever none whatsoever seven got in free to go mr. Berman would you drink this drink warm you could you could or if you would at room temperature without being best well I would say here this is hard to exactly define Charlie I think a great many people would say that it was at its best at room temperature other words others would require that to some degree be refrigerated it would be a matter of taste I see well if I had a bathtub full of this I enjoy getting into it what I am would I keep this in the bathroom no that makes it eight not to to go his present he probably keep it in the bathroom if he will Cleopatra does it have anything to do with something that comes from cows no no matter what you go be concerned as the Rockefeller is something that comes from cows ever poured into this drain no never ready to this drank milk or cream I don't think so Bennett no we're gonna have to get it might happen but it would be an outrageous occurrence that car did not to be believed what is it what was something like ginger ale or soda water how about just plain old bottled water would you like that what just one bottle of water not a spring water yeah actually mr. Rockefellers with the the Great Bear spring company and they sell bottled water water all through the east you know you've seen it in offices and homes particularly in those areas where water pollution has begun to catch up with the community and the water tastes rotten because of the chemicals in it they have bought water in the home and we puzzled them with the real doozer are very happy we did it doesn't even clean a teeth with water she uses the lights to turn but mister I've never heard of water I don't know what it's doing well I felt sure when you got to the bathtub that your next question would be milk but you passed that one anyway sorry thank you for that mr. Rockefeller thank you very much for coming in with an occupation that puzzled our families thank you and now to meet our second challenge when you enter and sign in please Darlene McKay did write miss or mrs. McKay mrs. McKay and where are you promises because you've written or even Beaverton Oregon nice to have you with us mrs. McCabe may I present our panel now would you join me over here please ah do you know how he keeps more yes fine we'll let the audience in the theater in the audience at home know exactly what your line is panel we can tell you that mrs. McKay decelerate and deals in a service and let's begin the questioning with Shelley Berman miss miss McCabe would I employ your services no you wouldn't that's quite an answer that's one down and nine to go now we're saying here specifically surely we can assume that you would not be employing or service this is not rule out that for instance men could employ the services but entirely but this is another question to be asked miss Frances well would human beings use your services Mr McKay yes usually women yeah it is it possible that I might yes you might under the proper set of circumstances yes now this merely suggests that we don't want you to think that in your natural habitat and in your natural occupation it would be reasonable at this moment that you might but under another set of circumstances than you might oh What did he say over there I don't know it is better to be married in order to have your services no I don't think it has any effect dude out of eight to go mr. sir but you know what I had in mind this is the cake do you work for a profit-making organization yes I do is it located in Oregon yes it is what part of our again is Beaverton and would you tell me it's just ten ten miles outside of Portwenn outside of Portland you work indoors yes I do do you have anything to do with the manufacture or sale of the product that you're involved in no I don't and it's basically a service better three down and seven to go mrs. Kilgallon do you work indoors yeah is it in something other than a mere office yes it is is it a room where there are other people yes all these people ever children sometimes do you ever give them any advice or counsel the people that were in the room with mrs. McCabe you mean yes yeah could you be said to teach in any way yes are you a school teacher no no no poor down and fixed to go Shelley Berman do you instruct them in a specific field yes I do is it a is it a field of which is a trade or a or a profession can I say a trade or a profession but I would say we would say no it's not a trade and though it might in its highest degrees of excellence subsequently be considered broadly to be encompassed by the word profession that people listen now I'll just take no for an answer has five dotted five to go miss president likes you ever in pursuing this work touch the people that you are instructing yes I might would there be an action on the part of the person that would be physical in the instruction yeah is it would one where something other than a street dress when one is having this instruction no fix down four to go mister sir mrs. McKay might this instruction that you give lead to later on if sufficient proficiency were attained by the student to some kind of a career in the entertainment industry no I smuggled all of the conference a small country Bennett actually we're going to change that answer to yes if a very high degree of proficiency were ultimately achieved it is possible with double what you indicated does what you teach mr. McCabe require the use of some kind of an object while the service is being performed it does is a certain amount of physical dexterity necessary to perform this service properly yes other hands you is more than the feat in the performance of this step yeah when the hands are you they use some object yeah is it is it in the nature of a game yes is it a game that can be played by one person alone it could be it could be better we'd give you a yes on that it's unlikely kind of oh it would be very lonely but usually quite usually it's played by more than one person yeah is a ball of any kind used in this game yes is it a smaller ball when a tennis ball I'm sorry is it a smaller ball in a tennis ball no oh I was thinking a ping pong my well that's fine bet you said that Bennett that seven down three to go that got me off the knife through training of golf but I just stopped thinking about it the ball is as large as a tennis ball let me say this that I think that certainly mrs. McKay would be much more expert I would think that the average person might consider here that the ball could either be a little bit smaller or the same size or perhaps a little bit bigger is it anything like a baseball a baseball that eight down and two to go mr. bumpy you may have a 15-second Kelly I think cool opinions might be worth it well uh yeah they're they're easier to hit if there's a hard it's alright I'll find out that I'm desperate is it a hard ball yeah oh now if I threw this ball at somebody could I hurt him pretty badly if he wasn't looking yes no would it be with this ball ever be found on a table of any time do you instruct billiards or pool yeah kill and question billion parlor in beavers right and you can go if you're in beavers in any one of you and get instruction that's why I was saying Arlen you'd have to have a different set of circumstances before you could get my benefit mostly the women I think yes very rarely recently exclusively women you never never teach men well we very nearly stumped the panel and I think you and I were both agree that they're to be congratulated for digging that well not we thought that would puzzle you and it didn't and thank you very much for being our guest and what's my life we'll meet the mystery guest in just a moment but first here is a word from us and now we come to the special feature of our program the appearance of our mystery Challenger for which the panel as always is blindfolded blindfolds in place panel oh you're good will you enter mystery Challenger and sign in please all right channel as you know in the case of our mystery Challenger we go to a different form of questioning one question at a time in turn moving clockwise and we'll begin with Bennett Cerf May we presume that your name would be more apt to appear in the columns of varieties and the Wall Street Journal spot I didn't hear Mick Kilgallon I would have sworn you said mr. Challenger but I guess you didn't John are are you an actor a performer mr. Berman that's a man talking there now if you are an actor are you are you in the movies well I would say basically no write what down nine to go miss fetch it sure the audience would you be considered a comedian mister sir do you appear with some degree of regularity on television well I can't hit yet some there was some degree mr.
