Following the quizzes and the
one-minute individual impression,
the remaining 23 applicants played
mock rounds of the game, result
ing in the selection of the four
semi-final contestants, she said.
Keitges said that to get to the
“Wheel of Jeopardy ” the four
contestants will play regular Re
mote Control rounds. The two top
contestants will go to the “Speed
Round,” and the winner then will
go on to the “Wheel.” If the
contestant names 10 of 13 videos
correctly, he or she will be flown to
New York in December or Janu
ary.
According to Lisa Silfen, man
ager of business and corporate
publicity at MTV, the winner of
Tuesday's show will compete in a
“Remote Control” taping.
The audience will be involved
in the action. When the on-stage
contestants miss answers, the
crowd will be allowed to win
prizes for correct answers.
Keitges said in addition to show
regulars Ken Obcr and Colin
Quinn, the show Tuesday will fea
ture stand-up comedy and comic
routines, all taking place in a mock
dormitory room on stage.

alities and championships. It also
houses items such as costumes from
the vaudeville era and the original
James L. Plimpton skate.
J.L. Plimpton, a native of Massa
chusetts, invented the “rocking
skate” in 1863, which revolutionized
the sport. Because the new invention
enabled the skater to steer the skate
by leaning to the left or right, the
sport of skating began to grow.
Plimpton also was responsible for
opening the first public roller rink.
Most technological development
in the roller skate occurred between
1863 and the 1880s. Besides Plimp
ton’s contributions, ball bearings
were the next notable contribution to
the advancement of the skate. New
materials, like synthetic wheels, now
have improved the skate of the past.
From the two- and three-wheel
skates to the combination roller and
ice skate, the museum covers many
spcctrums of the sport. For the elderly
skater, the museum displays an adult
size skate aid which is like a walker
on wheels.
“Almost anyone can contribute to
the museum’s collection,” Sorenson
said. “A lot comes from the people in
the industry and the competitive skat

ers.
Organized roller skating competi
tion, which began in Europe and
spread throughout the world, is repre
sented at the museum by the many
skates and uniforms worn by modern
day champions.
The Hall of Fame for the United
States Amateur Confederation of
Roller Skating displays items from
the best skating competitors.
The museum is free and open to
the public 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday
through Friday.
