You Bet Your Life #59-03 Plug "Groucho and Me" and win $100 (Secret word 'book', Oct 8, 1959)

- The choice of secret word this week, "book", is especially appropriate, as it allows Groucho to pay a contestant $100 after she plugs his autobiography, "Groucho and Me". (@ 7:28)
NOTE: The first minute or so is missing. This has the unfortunate effect of rendering the appearance of a gorilla in the opening completely inexplicable.
The program runs long, and the second couple return next week for the quiz.
COUPLE #1: Grace Garrett, hotel babysitter / Chuck Lewis, golf pro who tours with a "golf show," whatever that is (it's not really explained). We also meet Chuck's daughter, Linda, who is part of the act.
COUPLE #2: Margaret Rhode, Lufthansa airline hostess / Kent Shelby

The audience was always dressed very nice and elegant. Amazing that they were.
As of 2023, Jackie Joseph is still living. Such a cutie. I remember her on several 1960s sitcoms.
If only Groucho would live on I am in love with a legend nothing could compare ❣️
My father was the editor of the 42nd Infantry Divison news letter The Rainbow Revilee. That was the $2000 question.
Great show and watching great comedy that never got on the air. Thank you Groucho RIP.
How could two people living in the 1950's, and who were both alive when WWI was fought, not know about the Rainbow Division? 👀
I watch a lot of t.v. and I love the old shows the best.
Thank you for sharing this, I enjoyed it.
Does anyone have an explanation for the gorilla?
Groucho was so funny, His adlib's were off the hook no matter how You slice it. :)
*adlib's* ? 👀
Corny but lovable
What characters Groucho accumulated on his shows! Always interesting for the audience -- everyone from just ordinary people, some maybe a bit eccentric, to celebrities, some well known and others yet to be known. I love it! And oh my, how lovely is Margaret Rhode, the airline stewardess! It really does take us back to a day when the word misogyny perhaps was uttered by no one and the leftist radical feminist movement that has ruined it for everyone today that has made men afraid to even approach women had not yet taken root. For the most part, men were men and women were women, and if a particular career course was selected by more of one gender than another, so it was. We didn't have "intellectual types" and politicians attempting to socially engineer us into their vision of who men and woman should be from their perspective only. Simpler and better times.
ecmcomichael1 Leftest Feminest Movement 😀😀 Forgot radical! 😀😀
Do true what you say Ecm. Feminist and the loony liberals have destroyed society.
You are sooo right!!!
Word Smith's around the World look to Groucho for tips.
Missed opportunity during the bit around 11:20 .. Groucho should've yelled for Fenneman to come out and volunteer.
That would have been perfect. :)

Where is that cute little golfer girl now?
The golf show was an exhibition of various trick shots as well as the golf club oddities that Chuck showed a sample of during the show. The unusual hook for his show was little Linda being one of the trick shot artists. At age 8 she was already an "old pro". Here's a brief newsreel clip of Linda and her dad with Linda showing her abilities at age 6.

Lois Simmons Thanks!

You are welcome. My pleasure.
Lois, I realize your comment was made 7 years ago but all the same....you’re the best*
@@maryperez1235 Thank you.
World’s Greatest Raconteur!
Groucho wouldn't last 3 episodes in today's woke climate.
Linda died April 3, 2011 age 63. She attended University of Alabama.
OH
I found another reference of Linda’s birthdate as Dec 9th, 1951. If that is correct and if she did die, that would make her 59 at the time of her death.
She was 8 in Oct of '59, none of your info is correct. Please double check or don't post to confuse
For those with the dates of death, for the future provide references as to where you found your information/data.

Whoa Nellie, Grace has had a humor-ectomy, if she had a sense of humor to begin with. A harder woman I have never seen, had she been employed to baby- sit me, I doubt I would have made it out alive, what a black hearted, old sea hag.
Steven Western I don't think she was that bad. The way she told the story about the four year old boy at the hotel, showed that she at least was on the children's side. Her "aggressive" attitude was more because she thought about Groucho being a "naughty boy" from her point of view. But this is my personal opinion of course. :)
Steven Western she was a product of her times. She reminds me a lot of both of my Great Grand Mothers and would have been a similar age.
Steven Western I thought she was a wonderful person. It's funny how each person differs from another's opinion.
I thought she was very nice and well-mannered. Personally, I wouldn’t mind sitting down to chat for a while :)
Seems pretty normal to me
Cept for the ketchup on rasberry.pie! That's messed up!
