Transcript

This is Bill Goodwin speaking for Lever Brothers, makers of Swan, the new white floating soap that's pure as fine cast eels. Well, it's Tuesday night again time for another pleasant visit with George Burns and Gracie Allen.

Our guests, lovely Hedy Lamar, Jimmy Cash and Felix Mills and his orchestra. And now, meet the people who live in the Burns House, George and Gracie! Well, it's afternoon and George is just getting home from the office.

As he opens the front door, he hears Gracie on the telephone talking to Pat O'Brien. No, no, no, Pat. Tim Bullham, Mary Kayte, and McDonald. It was muscle, Malone, who married Fat Sofina again, sir.

Oh, no, not again. Oh, hello, George. A Pat Judge just came in. Huh? Oh, wait a minute. I'll ask him. George, how's the juggling game? You tell that, Irishman, I'm not a juggler. Oh, of course.

Pat Judge isn't a juggler. He's a comedian. Sure. Well, wait. I'll have to tell you that joke about the moron who flooded the house. Tomorrow I'm who flooded the football field so the coach could send a minute of sound.

Hey, hey, Joe. Tell Pat that joke. Hang up. Hang up. Oh, hello, Pat. Well, I better hang up. George isn't his usual comical self today. Goodbye. That guy has got everybody in town thinking I'm a juggler.

Can he get it through that head of him that I'm not? Oh, no, George, don't be upset. I have some good news for you. What? Well, look, tomorrow is Navy Day and what do you think is going to happen to Tootsie Saggle?

Very little if I know our Navy. Aww, you're wrong. There's a big contest to choose the Queen of the Free and the sailors are going to elect Tootsie. Gracie, the boys would rather kiss a duffel bag.
