Conrad Hilton What's My Line? : Season 6 Episode 39

Regular panelists Dorothy Kilgallen, Fred Allen, Arlene Francis and Bennett Cerf, join host John Daly this June evening. The first contestant is Mr. William Gourley, a Brooklyn man who drives a patrol wagon for the New York Police Department. The panel is stumped until the cards are flipped over and Arlene Francis blurts out that he drives a "paddy wagon." John Daly points out that Mr. Gourley is not a police officer, but a civil servant of the City of New York. Next up is one Mrs. Elizabeth Rowens, who is an attendant at the Baltimore Public Bath House. Again, the panel is very much at sea and, ultimately, stumped. The mystery celebrity guest this evening is Conrad Hilton, the renowned hotel owner. Bennett Cerf correctly identifies Mr, Hilton. Chatting with Mr. Daly, Mr. Hilton discloses that he's on his way to Istanbul, Turkey to open another hotel. Finally, Mr. Alex Tansman, who makes Davy Crockett hats, a very popular fad at the time, is presented before the panel. Unfortunately, time runs out, and John flips over the cards before the group can draw a bead on Mr. Tansman's occupation. However, in closing, when the panel says good night to each other and Mr. Daly, the four panelists don the hats that Mr. Tansman brought with him. The ladies' hats are in white fur, and the very proper Mr. Daly has a hat as well, but prefers not to wear it as he invites viewers to tune in next week.
