The game's question
Move from one clue to the next at your own pace; circle the name when her face comes back.
From one picture to the next, one actress had moviegoers lining up again and again in the early 1960s. Theater owners named her the No. 1 box-office star four times: in 1960, 1962, 1963, and 1964. No other actress did better in those thirty years. Circle her name together.
- Elizabeth Taylor
- Doris Day
- Barbra Streisand
Need a hint?
Her last name is one short word, three letters long: the opposite of night. Say it slowly, and her first name may follow.

Answer: Doris Day—No. 1 at the box office in 1960, 1962, 1963, and 1964.
