I believe this was the last episode series star Pete Duel filmed; he committed suicide 16 days later, in the early hours of New Year's Eve...

Don't you mean "What's My Line?"

What was I thinking? I must have been looking at the listing for
"What's New." Of course, it is "What's My Line?". When the PTAR
prohibited off-network reruns on affiliates in the top-50 markets,
starting in the fall of '72, "Line" and "To Tell The Truth" aired back-to-
back on WFLA.
