		Jackie Gleason was the host of this live broadcast, (he even helped develop the show) and the celebrity contestants for that first (and only broadcast) episode included Jan Sterling, Keenan Wynn, Aurthur Treacher, and Pat Carroll.

	Facts Relating to Joe Jackson and the 1919 Black Sox Scandal (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		It was common knowledge that something was wrong (that a fix was in), members of the press knew it, Kid Gleason had strong suspicion that one was in the making, Comiskey (according to Harry Grabiner's diary), knew about the fix after the first game and went to the National Commission with this knowledge.
		Comiskey didn't press the issue, the National Commission didn't believe him (one of the most respected men in baseball), Gleason wouldn't press the issue....and the members of the press wouldn't write about it.....what makes anyone in their right mind think the uneducated Joe Jackson would come forward and spill his guts.
		On the same note......Comiskey should have been banned, Gleason and others should have been banned for the same time period......they all had "guilty knowledge" of the fix and did nothing to expose it.
