One of the first jobs I ever had in TV was doing Candlepins of Cash in
1975. I always had the camera in the garage (next to the newscars). They
taped all five shows on Saturday afternoon. My father used to gamble at
the local watering hole on who would bowl a strike. (Naturally he was
the only one who knew).
Barbara Borin mariied into the Dunfey hotel family and is living in New
Hampshire. She still does the NH PTV auction.
Chuck is alive and well and doing the news at WNBC. I see him almost
every day. Doesn't like it when I tell him "I used to watch him when I
was a kid"
I'm 45 now.

The two things I remember about Candlepins for Cash....

1.)  How the contestants would say hello to "All the guys at GE in Lynn!
"

2.) If a guy knocked down 8 pins...he got EIGHT BUCKS!  WOW!  Not
exactly a Big Budget show!

OK...3 Things...3.) Eddie Andleman would razz Bob Gamere on the nightly
newscast for being the 'Candlepin King'...  Supposedly morale at
"Newsroom 7" was pretty bad...having a Candlepin show as a lead in...

Supposedly "C F C" did (surprisingly) well ratings-wise.  I know my
grandmother loved it...and sent in postcards with all her
grandchildren's names!

Speaking of Bob Gamere....  Whatever happenned to his career?

Also, does anyone remember Barbara Borin?

I think this was a period where everyone DID indeed watch Channel 7's
news.

Also, remember when Chuck Scarborough was there before he went to NBC(?)
.  He was one of the few credible anchors they had.  (We won't talk
about Brad Holbrook!  Actually a NICE GUY...with even nicer hair...but
not a real 'authoritative' delivery on the air...)
