Ed Sullivan (2) What's My Line? : Season 10 Episode 2

Guest panelist John Payne identified the inventor and manufacture of the Hula Hoop. The panel were stumped by the chief painter at the White House. John Daly asked the gentleman if First Lady, Mamie Eisenhower, oversaw the interior decorating of the White House and the gentleman confirmed that she was very involved and opined that she had excellent taste. Mystery guest, Ed Sullivan, donned a very silly mask as he was being questioned. The audience and John Daly could not contain their laughter. Arlene Francis, in a panel conference, guessed correctly that is was, indeed, Ed Sullivan. John Daly discussed the beginning of the 11th season of Ed Sullivan's Toast of the Town and Mr. Sullivan enumerated a glittering roster of guests appearing on his season opener. Finally, John Daly wished Arlene Francis well on the New Haven opening of "Once More, With Feeling" in which she appeared.
