For those who might be interested in the days of yore when civility was the norm, here is a What's My Line? episode from 62 years ago. The first two guests are the respective chairpersons of the RNC & DNC. Yes, the politicians are ultimately shilling for money by the end of the 12 minute segment but manage to put their differences aside in order to have some fun trying to fool the illustrious panel. And look no further than the panel themselves, regulars Dorothy Kilgallen, Arlene Francis, Random House publisher Bennett Cerf and guest panelist David Niven, for shining examples of gentility, politeness and manners as well as them all being pretty smart cookies. And if you care to, you can also stick around after that and see how the game was played with "regular" people and then enjoy Mystery Guests Robert Young & Jane Wyatt, beloved stars of Father Knows Best.
