You Bet Your Life #55-22 Special guest, actress Fifi D'orsay (Secret word 'Voice', Feb 23, 1956)

There's an interesting connection between Groucho and actress Fifi D'Orsay, of couple #3, though it goes unmentioned in this program. According to wikipedia, D'Orsay was once involved with vaudevillian Ed Gallagher, half of the successful Broadway comedy team of Gallagher and Shean, who coached his protegee in the ways of show business. The other half of the act, Al Shean, was Groucho's uncle, and had a huge impact on the early career of the Marx Brothers (including writing their first real act).

COUPLE #1: Brad Andres, youngest champion professional motorcycle racer / Jerra Lynne Tyler
COUPLE #2: Lewis Glaser, model car manufacturer / "Icie" May Hoffman
COUPLE #3: Fifi D'orsay, famous Quebec-born actress / Sarn Whitman, salesman
