You Bet Your Life #59-24 Ellis Arnall, former governor of Georgia ('Water', Mar 3, 1960)

Groucho meets his match in the conversation-dominating Ellis Arnall, former governor of Georgia. The southern accents in this segment are thick enough to cut molasses. Or something to that effect.

Don't miss Groucho's (sort of) plug for his upcoming appearance on the Bell Telephone Hour's production of "The Mikado" around 18:00. As important an event as this was for him, he still can't help himself from making a big joke out of the whole thing.

COUPLE #1: Johnnie Ross, female real estate salesman / Reverend James Dixon
COUPLE #2: Ellis Arnall, former governor of Georgia / Peggy Brown, former beauty contest contestant from North Carolina
