MONDAY, NOVEMBER 18, 1957 HERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS, OREGON PAGE THREE Man Invades TV Program NEW YORK Ofl Viewers watching The $64,000 Challenge TV quiz last night were startled to hear themselves challenged. In the midst of the program, a man later identified by police as Richard Fichter, 34, of Route 1. Springville, Pa., walked in front of a camera and read from a pre pared statement: "America, 1 have a challenge. The Russians are ahead of you. , . ." Fichter got no further. The cam era swung away from him, he was grabbed by the stage director and was ushered into the wings after his brief performance. The director. Seymour Robbie, said later he saw Fichter walk into a televised area that included three contestants and a master of ceremonies but thought he was a CBS employe. As soon as Fich ter began to read, Robbie shouted through an intercom system: "Re move him." Fichter was taken by police to Bellevue Hospital, where he was admitted to the psychiatric ward. Police refused to divulge the contents of his statement. They said it was headed: "$64,000 Chal lenge as Prepared by Richard Fichter." Legitimately on 'stage at the time were the M. C, Ralph Story, and three contestants, Teddy Nad- ler, Norman Fruinan and Barry Simmons. All three had already won $4,000 and Story was asking irurnan the $8,000 question when Fichter appeared. Fruman, a comic book writer from the Bronx, finally answered tne question correctly. , The three contestants were in volved in an elimination match in tne general Knowledge quiz category. Nadler, a former civil service clerk from St. Louis, and Simmons, a 20-year-old New York City public relations man, will have a chance next week to draw even again with Fruman.
