Lola Mason on 'Who Do You Trust?' with Johnny Carson

I bought the 4-disc, budget bin DVD set "Johnny Carson: Late Night Legend" at Wal-Mart recently. On disc 2 it contains two episodes of "Who Do You Trust?", a game show Johnny hosted (with announcer Ed McMahon) from 1957-1962. And one of the contestants in the 2nd episode is none other than Lola Mason, who plays the blonde Donna in THE BRAIN THAT WOULDN'T DIE.

I didn't recognize her at first but I knew that voice the moment she opened her mouth. Displaying poise and a rather winning personality, she identifies herself as a "model and actress" and talks about the various "goofy" beauty contests she has won ("Miss This and Queen That"), and she and Johnny hit it off well.

During the first question round, she gets two correct answers but her partner, a man who is both a chiropractor and a butcher, misses his question and disqualifies them from the final round.

The episode isn't listed on her IMDb page but I was pleasantly surprised to see the relatively extensive TV and movie credits Lola managed to rack up over the years.
