Two big highlights in this show: First, the appearance of John Wayne's son, Michael, along with his newlywed wife. The other is, as billed in the video title, Groucho doing his version of a Hula dance (18:22). No one questions Groucho's verbal wit, but look how great he still is at physical comedy, and he's over 60 years old here!

COUPLE #1: Michael Wayne (son of John Wayne) & his wife Gretchen
COUPLE #2: George W. Davis / Napua Wood, who teaches Groucho how to do the Hula
