Transcript

This is Bill Goodwin speaking for Lever Brothers, makers of Swans, a new white floating soap that's purer than finest cast to you. Well, it's Tuesday night again, time for another pleasant visit with George Burns and Gracie Allen, Jimmy Cash, Paul Whiteman and his music, and the Swarn Ted, who open our show with...

Goodbye Sue! Goodbye, all a sense of luck to you! You've been my while until the clouds go by! Well, it's morning at the burn house, and as George comes downstairs, he sees Gracie about to leave.

Where are you going, Gracie? Just down to the May Company. What for? How? Goodbye, something. What? Oh, it's just a little straw. The feather. Maybe a little fruit. New ribbon. Gracie, you're not going to get another new hat.

How much you want to bet? Nothing, June. You're going to be a little bit too late. Nothing to him. You've got enough hats. I'm lucky if I get one who had a year. Oh, but, Jod, you don't need a hat.

You're already so handsome and attractive. You have such a beautiful head and your face has set strength and character that I have would only hide your tremendous charm. That, Gracie, is a lot of malarkey.

Yeah, I know. Did it work? No. Gracie, you're staying home. Just give me the cockies. Oh, all right. Here, they're in my purse. Oh wait, I'll just empty it out on the table. Okay. Is that all you've got in your purse?

Oh sure. I hate women who carry a lot of junk around. Gracie, what's this? The cowbell. Where'd you get it? I found it. Yeah, but why do you carry it around with you? Well, someday I might find a cow.
