      Forty years ago on Thursday, May 17, 1979, the 6th Annual Daytime Emmy Awards ceremony was held at the Vivian Beaumont Theater [Lincoln Center] in New York City. It was broadcast live on the CBS-TV network during that afternoon, and was hosted by Bob Barker.  In brief, the winners....

      Best Game Show: "The Hollywood Squares".
      Best Game Show Host: Dick Clark, "The $20,000 Pyramid".
      Best Game Show Director: Jerome Shaw, "The Hollywood Squares".

      It was Dick Clark's actual first Emmy as a performer, but he was a no-show at the event to accept the award.  Host Bob Barker was a nominee in the Best Game Show Host category, but was disqualified after it was determined that an episode, submitted for consideration to the awards committee, had aired after the cutoff date.

      Sincerely,
      William A. Padron
