What’s My Line | Mystery Guest Eve Arden

Four panelists must determine guests’ occupations – and, in the case of famous guests, must guess their identity while blindfolded and by asking only “yes” or “no” questions. Which one will guess EVE ARDEN!

Guest panelists Sam Levenson and Betty Furness fill in for regulars Fred Allen and Arlene Francis on this first episode of the New Year. Mr. Daly welcomes his two temporary panelists and asks the first contestant to sign in, please. A Fort Lauderdale, Florida woman is the first to do so in this new year and the audience learns the woman is a union plasterer. The panel is stumped and it’s on to the second contestant. Mr. Daniel Dragel, an employee for the city of Chicago tests motorists for intoxication. The panel are dancing around, coming fairly close to discerning the gentleman’s occupation, but are thwarted ultimately as Mr. Daly flips the cards and reveals Mr. Dragel’s occupation. Mr. Dragel thanks the Chicago police commissioner for his appearance tonight.

Mystery guest tonight is actress and comedienne, Eve Arden, star of the very successful CBS situation comedy, “Our Miss Brooks.” Dorothy Kilgallen unearths her identity and Miss Arden reveals to taking a respite in New York City from work and four children. Finally, Mr. Earl Hallman, a New Jersey refrigerator salesman signs in, but John Daly must call time. However, the panel is amused as Miss Furness was the on-air spokesperson for Westinghouse appliances at that time. John Daly announces Fred Allen’s return next week as well as film star, Janet Leigh, covering for Arlene Francis who is still on her break.

Cast: John Daly, Bennett Cerf, Dorothy Kilgallen and many more!
