00:32where beauty is not only in the eyes of the beholder,
00:34but also on this very stage.
00:36Tonight, the $1.98 Beauty Show will continue its relentless spoof
00:40of all of those other so-called beauty contests.
00:43And although this is not a real contest,
00:44we will bring you our version of the all-American beauty,
00:47that one-of-a-kind girl who not only has personality and poise,
00:50but beauty and talent as well.
00:52Yes, sir, the $1.98 Beauty Show will be bringing you
00:54tons of talented and beautiful women every single week.
00:57Happy women, terrified women, women singing and dancing
01:00and parading about in the latest bathing suits,

01:07And now, here's the host and star of the show,

02:03This Liberty Minute is brought to you by Chrysler Corporation.
02:06For America, John Lee.
02:09When I first came from Korea,
02:11I just wondered if I could get along with Americans.
02:14But being an athlete, it helped me tremendously.
02:17Kicking field goals has been really important, I guess.
02:20But the friendships I made through the athletics
02:23has been even more valuable.
02:29This man was a part of the greatest business comeback
02:32in American history.
02:33He bet everything on a corporation's struggle to survive,
02:37and he won.
02:39He's your Chrysler Plymouth dealer,
02:40and he helped save the jobs of Americans
02:42who make Chrysler and Plymouth automobiles,
02:44the people who sell them and those who service them.
02:47Now, he's leading another comeback.
02:50As a founding sponsor of the Statue of Liberty Restoration Fund,
02:53he's helping save the very symbol of America.
02:58Make your contribution today.

20:36And here now we continue our search for the $1.98 Beauty of the Week
20:39with the exciting bathing suit competition.
20:41Now here, stripped of all their worldly goods,
20:45to give us one last peek as they make a final bid to accumulate points for Beauty and Poise,
20:49here now are tonight's six gorgeous candidates.
20:52Here again is candidate number one, who sang,
20:55Let Me Entertain You, Eva Marie Zabor.
20:59Eva Marie Zabor, measures 34, 24, 35.
21:04Having spent most of her youth in Budapest, Hungary,
21:07Eva finally moved to the United States and ordered a tuna melt.
21:11She definitely believes that food is a major factor in her life.
21:15For without food, she would have no reason to cook.
21:18Eva's hobbies include collecting small appliances and jungle books.
21:22She hopes to someday combine the two
21:24and open up a small department store in Africa,
21:28which she plans to call Spears and Robots.
21:32That's Eva Marie Zabor from Budapest, Hungary.
21:41Ah, here again is candidate number two,
21:43who serenaded us with a tune and name and hello dolly,
21:46Tony Bardoni-Roberts.
21:49Tony Bardoni-Roberts, measures 39, 33, 39.
21:56For many years, Tony worked in summer clubs as a cigarette girl.
22:00She says it was an interesting job,
22:02but it left her with a permanent nicotine stain around her waist.
22:07Right now, her main concern is her weight.
22:10She's tried every imaginable diet and has come to the conclusion
22:14the only way she'll be thin is by changing her heritage
22:18from Italian to Biafra.
22:20With all this going against her, Tony still manages to stay short.
22:25That's Tony Bardoni-Roberts from New York, New York.
22:37Okay, here again is candidate number three,
22:41the pretty pantomimist, Terry Burke.
22:45Terry Burke, measures 35, 24, 35.
22:50She says that she comes from a long line of wine merchants.
22:54Her mother crushed grapes, her father ran a vineyard,
22:57and her grandmother was a wino.
23:00But hanging around a wine vat and watching her grandmother ferment
23:04wasn't Terry's idea of living.
23:06As far as she's concerned, there are more important things to life
23:09than a bottle of Van Rose,
23:11but she can't think of anything at the moment.
23:14Terry's one great wish is to find a sincere man
23:17who will marry her for her brains.
23:20But she's finding out that most men are selfish and want all of her.
23:24That's Terry Burke from Washington, D.C.
23:32Okay, here again is candidate number four,
23:35the comedy songstress who sang Pennies from Heaven,
23:38Corinne Broskett.
23:41Corinne Broskett lost her magnifying glass
23:44and was unable to give us her measurements.
23:47But for the past three years, she's been working as a reporter
23:50for an underground newspaper.
23:52Every February, she digs her way up, sees her shadow,
23:55then disappears for another year.
23:58Corinne also considers herself to be a budding actress
24:01and has already appeared in several college graduate films.
24:05Unfortunately, she was totally unaware she was being filmed
24:09and is presently suing the Phi Delta Delta fraternity.
24:13Her dislikes include other people's problems,
24:17children, and accidentally having children.
24:21That's Corinne Broskett from Buffalo, New York.
24:31Alright, now here again is candidate number five,
24:34that wild rumba dancer, Rita Conde.
24:39Rita Conde measures 36, 38, 40.
24:43After an unsuccessful career of trimming beards in Cuba,
24:47Rita finally moved to the United States and opened up a smoke shop.
24:51But to her disappointment, there wasn't a big market for smoke,
24:55and she finally had to open a window.
24:58Totally confused and not knowing in which direction to go,
25:01Rita has decided to turn her thoughts to Latin music
25:05and enjoys a leisurely afternoon letting the neighborhood kids
25:09use her stomach as a conga drum.
25:13That's Rita Conde from Cuba.
25:24Okay, here again is candidate number six,
25:27the smashing guitarist, Lynn Driscoll.
25:31Lynn Driscoll measures 40, 22, 32.
25:35Lynn has a BA degree in human behavior,
25:39but for the past year, she's been behaving like a lizard.
25:42She was thinking about getting professional help,
25:45but gave up the idea when she realized how convenient it was
25:49being able to catch flies with her tongue.
25:52When it comes to men, Lynn wants a man who likes to travel.
25:55Unfortunately, she'll never get to meet one
25:58because he'll always be traveling.
26:00That's Lynn Driscoll from San Diego, California.
26:04And there they are!

28:58May sing with you whatever you do
29:06Wherever you are
