I'm trying to find the name of an old radio quiz show in the early 50's. The MC would ask questions in the audience and when he got a correct answer he would say "Give that lady 30 silver dollars". The MC was called Dr. someone.

Thanks for your help!

That sounds like 'DR. IQ' which ran on radio from 1939 to 1950 and had a couple of short runs on ABC-TV in the 50's. The doctor would ask questions of audience members and if they could answer the question he would award them siver dollars. If you do a search for 'Dr. IQ' on you'll find several references to the show.
