Summer Show Worries

Another cup of Maxwell House Coffee George? Sure. Pour me a cup, Gracie. Maxwell House is always good to the last drop. And that drop's good too. Yes, it's Maxwell House Coffee Time, starring George Burns and Gracie Alice.

With yours truly bill good wind, the postman, Mel Blank, our guests Ben Gage, the music of Meredith Wilson and his orchestra. For your Thursday night comedy enjoyment is George and Gracie. And for your everyday coffee drinking enjoyment, It's Maxwell House, with extra flavor in the blend because of choice Latin American coffee skillfully combined.

Extra flavor in the cup because radiant roast develops the full flavor of every coffee bean. And the result is that today more people buy Maxwell House than any other brand of coffee in the world.

Well, there's lots of excitement in the Burns home today. Gracie has just received word that she's to go to New York and write up the Lewis Kahn championship fight for her newspaper column. Of all people to cover a prize fight.

What do you know about boxing? I happen to be an authority on sports. You? Oh, there may be one or two fine points on boxing that I'm not up on. Like, how many there are on the side.

How many on the side? Of course, I can figure it out for myself. Just tell me how many there are altogether. Maybe the names of the fighters will give you a hint. It's the Joe Lewis Billy Kahn fight.

How far, huh? Yeah. Joe and Kahn fight Billy and Lewis. Look, Gracie, there are only two men in a price fight. One on a side. Just one? That's all. Oh, pretty small-time sport, huh? Yes, not doing well.
