[music playing] WENDY WILLIAMS: The first US Mint was created in Philadelphia in 1792, and it still supplies most of our coins.

Do you know how many coin designs James Longacre produced in his 25-year career?

You're invited to play The Pennsylvania Game.

Test your knowledge of the Commonwealth's people, places, and products.

The Pennsylvania Game is made possible in part by Uni-Marts Incorporated, with stores in Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, and Delaware.

Serving you with courtesy and convenience every day of the year.

[audio logo] And by the Pennsylvania Public Television Network.

[music playing] Now let's get the game started.

Here's the host of The Pennsylvania Game Lynn Hinds.

[cheers and applause] Hi.

Boy, have we got a game for you today.

I guess indeed we do.

Let's welcome the folks from-- is it the Fox-- Foxdale Retirement Community In-State College-- Village?

OK, let's give yourselves a big hand.

[applause] The Foxdale Village In-State College.

We have got a panel-- Bernie Asbell is back.

And Bernie is raring to go, I can tell today you look like you're-- Bernie Asbell, let's welcome him.

[cheers and applause] And we also have-- she's a psychologist from Penn State University.

She's Dr. ValaRay Irvin.

Let's welcome ValaRay [cheers and applause] She will explain to us later what it's like to be Dr. Stephen Ragusea, our other psychologist, all right?

[applause] Kind of interesting here.

We are going to go the first mint was in Phil-- now, this is not the mint they put on your pillow when you go to the motel overnight.

This is the one that does the coins.

Here's the question WENDY WILLIAMS: James B Longacre was a 50-year-old portrait artist from Philadelphia when he was appointed the chief engraver of the US Mint in 1844, a post he would hold until his death in 1869.

During his 25-year tenure, Longacre produced 11 designs for coins that eventually reached circulation.

These coins included all the following, except A, the Indian head penny, B, The first coin to have "In God We Trust," C, the buffalo nickel, or D, the three-cent nickel.

OK, Jim Longacre, 50-year-old portrait artist from Philadelphia, and he was with the US Mint for 25 years.

And he did 11 designs for coins.

And he did all of those, except for one.

Dr. Terence Lewis of clarion.

I think.

Is a coin collector because he sent this in WPSX.

And the publishers of Pennsylvania Magazine will give him a year's subscription to Pennsylvania Magazine-- very fine magazine-- for sending this in.

Bernie, which one do you think he did not create?

He did the other three.

You want us to say the three-cent nickel.

LYNN HINDS: I don't care what you say.

What year?

Did you tell us what year-- I said that he was there from 1844 until 1869.

Well, I'm constrained to say-- LYNN HINDS: You have to do this.

--if he designed that buffalo nickel, that thing was laying around a long time until it saw the light of day.

I see.

ValaRay, what do you call people who collect coins?

Coin collectors?

Coin collectors.

[laughter] LYNN HINDS: Numismatists, yes.

Are you a new numi-- whatever-- are you a coin collector?

No, I don't think so.

LYNN HINDS: Which is that ValaRay?

And I think I might have to differ with Bernie and-- LYNN HINDS: That's easy.

VALARAY IRVIN: --go with D and say he didn't include the three-cent nickel.

LYNN HINDS: That sounds like an oxymoron, a contradiction in terms of three-cent nickel, although nickels are not worth three-- Stephen, yes?

You know, I had a grandfather named Dominic Giampietro.

They used to call him Little Dom, OK?

And Little Dom had a word for people who would buy a three-cent nickel.

LYNN HINDS: Did he?

I couldn't say it on television, but he did have a word for it.

And therefore, I'm not going to go with that one.

I'm going to let my colleague have that one.

And I'm going to go with "In God We Trust" because I think that came before he was ever born.

I want you to listen carefully to this answer because you all have lots to learn about coins.

WENDY WILLIAMS: The answer is C, the buffalo nickel.

The Indian head penny was in circulation from 1859 to 1909 and is now a collector's item.

The first coin to have "In God We Trust" printed on it was a bronze two-cent piece first issued during the Civil War.

The three-cent nickel was designed because somebody thought that since stamps then cost $0.03 and there was almost always a shortage of change, a three-cent piece would be useful.

It wasn't.

And pennies aren't even today.

Yeah, "In God We Trust" were first, and they came from a suggestion of a man who lived in Ridley Park, Pennsylvania, that put "In God We Trust" on our coins.

Leonard Kissel of Natrona gets a year subscription to Pennsylvania Magazine too, a courtesy of WPSX and the publishers of Pennsylvania Magazine.

And Leonard Kissel wants to know if you all know who Frederick Augustus Muhlenberg was and what he did.

WENDY WILLIAMS: Frederick Augustus Muhlenberg, born in Trapp, Montgomery County in 1750 was a Lutheran minister.

He was the first Pennsylvanian to hold a certain position in the federal government.

Was Muhlenberg, A, Senate chaplain, B, house doorkeeper, C, Senate majority leader, or D, speaker of the house?

Now, ValaRay it's your turn to start.

And I got to tell you that most of the time, this panel doesn't do real well on religious questions.

So if you get it wrong, it's OK.

It's OK. Yeah.

What did Frederick Augustus Muhlenberg do?

He was the first Pennsylvanian to hold a certain position.

Which position was it?

Well, let's keep with the religious overtone and choose A and say-- LYNN HINDS: Senate chaplain?

Senate chaplain, yeah.

LYNN HINDS: Since he was a minister, he could have done that.

Dr. Stephen Ragusea.

I'm going with her.

LYNN HINDS: That's great, great logic.

I suggest that Bernie choose the same and we all go down together.

LYNN HINDS: They're going for the obvious.

Right, so am I. LYNN HINDS: You're going with D?

Speaker Muhlenberg has a right ring to it speaker.

LYNN HINDS: Speaker Muhlenberg.

And of course, the fact that he was ordained would make him a natural to be not the chaplain but the speaker of the House.

What's the right answer?

WENDY WILLIAMS: The answer is D, speaker of the house.

Not only was Muhlenberg the first Pennsylvanian to be speaker of the House, but he was elected as speaker of the first Congress and re-elected for the third Congress.

Two other Pennsylvanians-- Galusha Grow and Samuel Randall have also served as speaker of the house.

But Muhlenberg was the very first speaker of the House ever in this country from Pennsylvania.

Did you know that or was that a guess?

Now, be honest.

Well, of course, I knew that.

LYNN HINDS: Of course, you knew that.

He'd never admit it.

Do you know what is 50 years old in the year 1990?

Something in Pennsylvania that's very famous is 50 years old, and it's not me and it's not Stephen and it's certainly not ValaRay.

Something that's 50 years old?

Uh-huh, yeah.

Something is.

New Deal project it was.

WENDY WILLIAMS: Conceived in the 1930's as a New Deal Employment Project, the Pennsylvania Turnpike became America's first superhighway.

When the Turnpike opened in 1940, how far did it go?

Did the Turnpike run from, A, Ohio to New Jersey, B, Pittsburgh to Philadelphia, C, Carlisle to Irwin, or D, Bedford to Breezewood?

When they opened that sucker in 1940, it was the world's first super-- America's first superhighway anyway.

I guess the Autobahn was a little-- anyway-- in Germany.

But America's first superhighway.

How far did it go?

All the way from Ohio to New Jersey?

From Pittsburgh to Philly?

From Carlisle to Irwin?

Or Bedford to Breezewood?

You got a lot of choices there, Steve.

I know you spent a lot of time on the Turnpike.

Oh, boy, yeah, I've traveled.

I once calculated that I've been on the Turnpike enough time to go to and from the moon three times.

LYNN HINDS: Yeah, yeah.

None of that helps me answer this question.

LYNN HINDS: But how far did it go, do you think?

It sounds like a Johnny Carson question, you know?

How far did the Turnpike?

LYNN HINDS: Yeah.

It ran so far-- LYNN HINDS: It ran so far and then it stopped.

Right, but how far?

I'll go with the obvious wrong answer, which is Pittsburgh to Philadelphia.

LYNN HINDS: Pittsburgh to Philadelphia, B?

I know that's wrong.

LYNN HINDS: Bernie?

BERNIE ASBELL: Well, I'll go with the other obvious wrong answer.

It went so far that when it started at Carlisle, it quit at Irwin.

OK. ValaRay, I don't know if you know anything about the Pennsylvania Turnpike or not, but it was the first superhighway in the nation.

How far did you go when it was built in 1940?

In 1940?

LYNN HINDS: It now goes, of course, from Ohio to New Jersey, or New Jersey to Ohio.

It goes back again.

Well, the only bit I know about the Turnpike is the Philly area, so I think I'm going to be obvious again and go B, Pittsburgh to Philly.

LYNN HINDS: I hitchhiked once on the Turnpike and I was picked up by a very nice police officer who explained you couldn't hitchhike here.

What's the answer?

WENDY WILLIAMS: The answer is C, Carlisle to Irwin.

The original turnpike was just 164 miles long from Carlisle, about 18 miles West of Harrisburg, to Irwin, about 24 miles West of Pittsburgh.

A decade later, the grandfather of superhighways was extended from Ohio in the West to New Jersey and the East, almost doubling its length to 327 miles.

You drove it in 1940 when it was first built?

BERNIE ASBELL: Not in 1940.

In about 1945.

LYNN HINDS: Yeah?

Yeah.

LYNN HINDS: And it only went from about Harrisburg to Pittsburgh.

A little short of Harrisburg, a little short of Pittsburgh.

Do you know how far Breezewood is from Bedford?

Oh, about 22 miles?

Something like that, that's true.

That's where I was hitchhiking when I was picked up by the very nice 8 foot tall state trooper.

ValaRay Irwin, you're not a native Pennsylvanian, are you?

Not at all.

LYNN HINDS: You're from?

Louisiana.

LYNN HINDS: What part of Louisiana?

From Gonzales, Louisiana, which is a little town 30 miles West of Baton Rouge, the capital, and about 60 miles East of New Orleans.

Now, that's what amazes me.

Here's a person who's from that area who says New Orleans.

And I've always heard it called-- VALARAY IRVIN: New Orleans.

New Orleans.

New Orleans.

They don't say New Orleans down there?

They do say New Orleans.

Do they?

Yeah.

Some folks who actually live in New Orleans might say New Orleans.

LYNN HINDS: Yeah?

Yeah.

LYNN HINDS: But they also say New-- They say New Orleans.

They say New Orleans.

LYNN HINDS: Now you're working your way North.

You went to North Carolina for your PhD.

VALARAY IRVIN: Yeah, yeah.

And now you're up here in the middle of Pennsylvania.

In the middle of Central Pennsylvania.

LYNN HINDS: Canada's next, do you think?

Let's hope not.

Let's hope I'm working my way back.

I promised ValaRay that I wouldn't ask her about you Dr. Ragusea, but I've been wanting to ask another psychologist about what-- I'd like an answer.

LYNN HINDS: What makes Stevie run?

Do you know?

Do you feel threatened at all with having two psychologists?

BERNIE ASBELL: I sort of feel shrunk.

Do you?

BERNIE ASBELL: Oh, yes, I do.

I want to point out that the psychologists at this point are being decimated.

They are by the writer.

BERNIE ASBELL: They are.

LYNN HINDS: Bernie, at this point, has three correct.

He has three out of three, that's 100%.

Big round of applause for Bernie.

[cheers and applause] There will be three clues to the mystery Pennsylvania.

And this is so easy, I just I'm embarrassed to get it.

He was born in Reiner's Town-- Reinerton, Pennsylvania.

I mean, you got it right there.

I know in 1912-- born in Reinerton, 1912, his first band was at Duke University.

Not terribly far from North Carolina Chapel Hill.

It was called the Duke Blue Devils.

What else would you call a band from Duke University?

Born in Reinerton in 1912, his first band was at Duke University called the Duke Blue Devils.

That's the first clue.

There'll be two more, and it'll be clearer as we go along.

And I wouldn't be surprised if one or more of you does not get this one.

Warren State Hospital was built in 1878 and it had a first.

WENDY WILLIAMS: When Warren State Hospital was built in 1878, a man named Kirkbright brought an idea from England that gave the hospital a first in Pennsylvania, perhaps in the United States.

Was the Warren State Hospital the first to, A, use electric shock treatment for mental illness, B, have air conditioning, C, use drugs to treat mental illness, or D, have padded cells?

Now in 1878, when it opened, a man named Kirkbright brought this idea from England.

Shorty Miller up in North Warren has been so nice at helping us get this question together.

Shorty, WPSX and the publishers of Pennsylvania Magazine will send you a year's subscription to that very fine Pennsylvania Magazine for doing that.

This is for psychologists mainly, Bernie, so I'm going to let you start so you get you out of the way, and then we'll go to them.

What do you say?

Which is it?

Well, the fashionable answer would be C, use drugs.

But I think there are so many ways of defining drugs, that it can't be that.

I think it was really modern and used.

Padded cells-- let's go with electric shock.

LYNN HINDS: Electric shock.

Did they have electricity in 1870?

I don't know.

ValaRay-- BERNIE ASBELL: They had it a while.

Now the psychologists, they'll know this because this is all about treating, sure.

ValaRay.

Well, I certainly know that they were not using drugs back then, did not study that.

So I don't think it was C. I think I'm going to guess that perhaps they thought it was necessary to use padded cells for those who need it to be locked up.

We have a an A and a D. Dr. Ragusea, sir?

I'm so embarrassed about how things are going, that I'm, just for the sake of argument, I'm going to have a panic attack so that she can treat me.

[laughter] And then we can impress you with something we know.

I see, all right.

And I'll continue to go down together.

LYNN HINDS: You're both going with padded cells?

You should be locked, both of you, in a padded cell.

What is the correct answer?

1878.

WENDY WILLIAMS: The answer is B, have air conditioning.

Although not like modern air conditioning, the Kirkbright architecture, as it was called, was quite a system.

A steam engine turned a large turbine that pulled fresh air into a tunnel under the main building.

You can still see the system at Warren with the towers that house the exhaust system.

This ingenious system could even pull warmed air from the chimney in the winter to help heat the building.

Yeah, nobody said they had compressors and all that, but that was air conditioning.

It did condition the air.

BERNIE ASBELL: That answer just blew my mind.

Shorty Miller said it is the most marvelous thing to see.

And you can still tour and see that.

For 1878, that is rather-- but of course, that was the time when everybody was having a mechanical answer to everything.

We've got some French questions tonight, a whole series of them.

And my French is not so good.

I think this guy's name is Beaumarchais.

Beaumarchais?

He wrote some stories anyway.

WENDY WILLIAMS: Pierre-Augustin Caron de Beaumarchais wrote the comedies that two operas are based on, the Barber of Seville and The Marriage of Figaro.

He also helped the colonies in the American Revolution.

Did he help by, A, writing "Yankee Doodle Went to Town," B, designing colonial military uniforms, C, introducing Ben Franklin to King Louis XVI, or D, selling arms to the colonies?

OK, this guy, Pierre Augustin Caron de Beaumarchais-- that's close I hope-- was writing the story for the Barber of Seville and The Marriage of Figaro.

Those are operas.

But he also helped the colonies in the American Revolution.

How did he help, ValaRay?

He helped by writing the song "Yankee Doodle Go to Town-- Went to Town."

LYNN HINDS: You want to do a rendition-- I don't think so.

LYNN HINDS: OK, well, great.

Yankee Doodle, all right, that's an A. Stephen?

[speaking french] LYNN HINDS: Yeah?

Whatever that means, I think you can say that on television.

I can.

LYNN HINDS: What did he do this, Beaumarchais guy?

What's the question?

LYNN HINDS: What did he do?

He helped the American or the colonies in the American Revolution.

STEPHEN RAGUSEA: He helped the colonies?

LYNN HINDS: Yeah, what did he do to help them though?

Did he write the-- "Yankee Doodle" was sort of their theme song.

Or did he design their uniforms or did he-- I think-- actually, I know the answer to this question.

I happen to know that this gentleman was originally the great great grandfather of the woman who eventually was the mother of the great designer Halston.

LYNN HINDS: Halston?

Yes.

And-- BERNIE ASBELL: Halston.

Yeah, Halston at the time.

LYNN HINDS: You nailed this one, all right.

That's B, huh?

He helped out by designing the uniforms.

Bernie, how are you doing?

Well, I also wanted to say that he helped out by selling arms, but I figured he'd also have to sell legs.

And therefore, the question didn't make any sense.

I see.

As long as I'm last, because no one will disagree with me after this, if it was not C, then this is no longer the Pennsylvania Game.

LYNN HINDS: I see.

You follow me?

LYNN HINDS: I see.

It's the only Pennsylvania-related answer there.

LYNN HINDS: I see.

So he said, Ben, this is Louis.

Louis, this is Ben.

BERNIE ASBELL: That's right.

Louis was from Tyrone.

What's the answer?

WENDY WILLIAMS: The answer is D, selling arms to the colonies.

A Pennsylvania agent named Arthur Lee, living in London, arranged for France to supply arms secretly so that the British wouldn't find out.

Pierre-Augustin Caron de Beaumarchais was the middleman.

See, he was a Pennsylvanian who was a middleman in buying the arms for the-- you don't think of them having arms deals back in the Revolutionary War, but they did.

Here is clue number 2 to the Mystery Pennsylvania.

Now watch them scribble on this one.

Among the many songs he wrote and recorded, the most famous was "Sentimental Journey" sung by his lead singer, one Doris Day.

No scribbles yet?

I'm surprised.

Number one was he was born in Reinerton, Pennsylvania, 1912, first band at Duke.

And then clue number two, among the many songs he wrote and recorded, the most famous was "Gonna Take a Sentimental Journey" recorded by his lead singer, Doris Day.

Who was this famous Pennsylvanian?

While they're thinking, here's our address if you want to give us an idea for a question or just want to write with a comment, Pennsylvania Game, Wagner Annex, University Park, 16802.

There is a little bit of scribbling going on, some thinking.

There's another clue coming up.

Baseball players and baseball stars, and this one is about some baseball players from Pennsylvania.

WENDY WILLIAMS: Mike Schmidt, Greg Luzinski, Larry Bowa, and Bob Boone all had illustrious baseball careers with the Philadelphia Phillies.

They also share another distinction.

Did they, A, all play baseball over three decades, B, play in the Little League World Series, C, play with the Reading Phillies, or D, play with the Harrisburg Senators?

OK, Mike Schmidt, Greg Luzinski, Larry Bowa, and Bob Boone.

If you're a Phillies fan, you know those are indeed great Philadelphia Phillies players.

But what other distinction do they share, Steve?

Following the same erroneous logic that Bernie used with the last question, I'm going to suggest that it's important for us all to know that Williamsport is the center of Little League activity-- LYNN HINDS: Yes, indeed.

--across the world, actually.

LYNN HINDS: That's true.

And therefore, I'm going to guess, incorrectly, that they all played in the Little League.

LYNN HINDS: You're sacrificing your answer just to be able to make that point.

STEPHEN RAGUSEA: Just for edification.

Yes, but the Little League World Series draws teams from all around the world, and they wouldn't have to be from Pennsylvania.

But if there ever was such a team as the Reading Phillies, then clearly, they were a farm club for the Philadelphia Phillies.

LYNN HINDS: That's possibly true.

BERNIE ASBELL: And it is true.

LYNN HINDS: I see.

So C-- And therefore, the answer is C. That sounds awfully logical, although he got three out of three right and he hasn't got one right since, ValaRay.

What do you say?

And because I'm not a baseball fan, I have no idea who these people are.

Let's see Reading or Harrisburg?

LYNN HINDS: Most of them are retired by now, a matter of fact.

Bob Boone, I think, is still catching, but yeah.

I think I'm going to go with-- STEPHEN RAGUSEA: If you put in A, it'll spell cab across the front.

OK, that sounds really nice.

[laughter] [speaking simultaneously] What is the right answer for this one?

What's the distinction they share?

WENDY WILLIAMS: The answer is C, play with the Reading Phillies.

Mike Schmidt, Greg Luzinski, , Larry Bowa and Bob Boone all began their professional baseball careers in Reading, Pennsylvania as members of the town's class double-A Eastern League team, an affiliate of the Philadelphia Phillies.

Our psychologists are getting wiped out by the only sane man in the bunch here.

But this is another French question.

There was something in Pennsylvania that was very French.

I'm going to let Wendy Williams, our announcer say it.

WENDY WILLIAMS: Thousands of French people fled to America in the last decade of the 18th century.

2,400 acres in Northeast Pennsylvania, known as Asylum, became home for many who built a mansion.

For whom was the mansion built?

A, Emile Zola, B, Marquis de Lafayette, C, Marie Antoinette, or D, Napoleon Bonaparte?

OK, the French people came here in the end of the 18th century, escaping the French Revolution and the guillotine and all that.

And these people who came to Pennsylvania built a mansion called the Asylum.

But who was the mansion built for?

Which-- WENDY WILLIAMS: George Washington.

Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, it wasn't George Washington.

That's not the right answer.

That's the next question.

Gail Ann Wasser is the right answer too from Falls Creek, Pennsylvania because of her sending this question in about the Asylum.

We're going to send her a year's subscription to Pennsylvania Magazine, courtesy of WPSX and the publishers of the magazine.

Yes?

You mean, they built this-- LYNN HINDS: They built this for one of these people, that's exactly what.

In what year?

LYNN HINDS: It was right at the end of the 18th century, after the French Revolution, which everybody knows was the 1789, wasn't it?

You think?

Yeah, that's right, they say.

Well, it was a way of saying thank you to the Marquis de Lafayette.

LYNN HINDS: De Lafayette, Lafayette-- Well, of course, it was.

Of course.

Sure, come on over here and come to the Poconos and have a whole weekend, sure.

ValaRay?

Well, I think I'm going to-- in the tradition of sticking with women, I will say that it was built for Miss Antoinette.

LYNN HINDS: OK, Queen Marie Antoinette, OK. Stephen?

STEPHEN RAGUSEA: I always, myself, thought that Marie Antoinette was a hot number who belonged in Pennsylvania.

LYNN HINDS: I see.

And do you really think the queen of France was going to move to Pennsylvania to the Poconos?

What's the right answer?

WENDY WILLIAMS: The answer is C, Marie Antoinette.

The French queen was imprisoned during the French Revolution.

She escaped reportedly to come to Pennsylvania.

But she was captured and met her death on the guillotine.

When Napoleon came to power, most of the French in Pennsylvania returned to their native land, and the French Asylum passed into history.

There's not much up there left of it now, but at one time, it could have been really, really great.

Well, Wendy started to tell you a minute ago that George Washington was among the spectators when-- another French guy.

WENDY WILLIAMS: George Washington was among the spectators on January 9, 1793, when Jean-Pierre Blanchard and his dog did something in the Walnut Street Prison in Philadelphia.

Did Blanchard, for the first time in America, A, use dogs to find drugs, B, make the first balloon ascension, C, show a guard dog at work, or D, demonstrate a seeing-eye dog?

Jean-Pierre Blanchard, 1793, first time in America, with his dog, did what?

Use the dog to find drugs?

Make the first balloon ascent?

Show a guard dog at work?

Or demonstrate a seeing-eye dog?

ValaRay Irvin, what do you say?

Woof.

Woof.

[chuckles] Demonstrate a seeing-eye dog.

LYNN HINDS: OK, we're going with D. Stephen?

I just love the idea of a dog going up in a balloon.

LYNN HINDS: A balloon?

All right.

Bernie?

George Washington loved the idea of going up in a balloon.

I love the idea of going up in a balloon.

Well, you're using drugs there.

[speaking simultaneously] Everybody says that Jean Blanchard and his dog went up in a balloon.

WENDY WILLIAMS: The answer is B, make the first balloon ascension in America.

The balloon rose higher than a mile.

Blanchard didn't need the passport that Washington had given him.

He landed just 15 miles away in New Jersey.

But he did it in just 46 minutes, and that's better time than rush hour motorists can make it today.

Exciting times.

Here's the last clue.

His band achieved its greatest glory by doing 18 Christmas shows overseas with Bob Hope.

He was born in Reinerton in 1912.

He wrote "Sentimental Journey" sung by Doris Day.

His band achieved its greatest glory doing 18 Christmas shows with Bob Hope.

Stephen, you got an answer for us?

STEPHEN RAGUSEA: Tommy Dorsey was what I first wrote there.

Thomas Dorsey was, I believe, a native Pennsylvanian.

ValaRay?

Being the Tar Heel fan I am, I didn't know absolutely nothing about Dukies.

OK. Les Brown on clue number 3.

And his Band of Renown.

LYNN HINDS: Les Brown and his Band of Renown.

Is that the right answer?

Well, let's see.

WENDY WILLIAMS: Les Brown earned a degree in music from Ithaca.

But his start on the road to fame was with a band at Duke.

In 1938, Les Brown formed what was to become the Band of Renown.

And in 1940, his vocalist was a 17-year-old named Doris Day.

Les Brown wrote many songs, was featured in several movies, and had numerous hit records such as "Sentimental Journey" and "I've Got My Love To Keep Me Warm."

Perhaps his greatest fame came in his many overseas shows for servicemen with Bob Hope, featuring Les Brown and his Band of Renown.

Les Brown, a famous Pennsylvanian.

We got so many people to be proud of here in Pennsylvania.

Bernie, you obviously have studied since our last program because you've come back with five correct.

And that's great.

You did very fine tonight.

So psychologists, there you are.

You're trying to make Bernie-- you're trying to make Bernie feel better, right, both of you?

STEPHEN RAGUSEA: We are excellent therapists.

[laughter] I really feel cured.

VALARAY IRVIN: We do well what we do.

It's better you feel and he feels, everybody in the audience knew more answers than we did.

They all feel better.

LYNN HINDS: Yeah.

But you guessed well.

You got it on the last clue, Les Brown with Bob Hope and the tours-- BERNIE ASBELL: The Bob Hope clue was the tip off.

Isn't that "Sentimental Journey" though one of the all time greats-- STEPHEN RAGUSEA: Absolutely.

LYNN HINDS: Just great.

ValaRay, thank you for coming along.

VALARAY IRVIN: You're quite welcome.

Thank you.

Dr. Ragusea, thank you for coming too.

Stephen, it's always nice to have you here.

And we'll see you next time right here for The Pennsylvania Game.

[applause] [music playing] WENDY WILLIAMS: The Pennsylvania Game has been made possible, in part, by Uni-Marts Incorporated, with stores in Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, and Delaware, serving you with courtesy and convenience every day of the year-- [audio logo] --and by the Pennsylvania Public Television Network.
