Transcript

The Special Service Division invites you soldiers, sailors, and Marines of the United Nations to drop in at Juffy's Tavern. Hello, Juffy's where the elite mate is, the Rochester. Rochester. You know the guy is Jack Benny calling him up every week and says, whoa, Rochester's Mr. Benny. Yeah, Duffy, I was thinking, what we need is

Just think, Duffy. Every week, 10 million people are tuning in. They'll hear, D-U-F-F-Y, pot the free S. Certainly, Duffy, how can we miss? Well we practically got Rochester. All we need now is somebody to take the place at Jack Benny and we got another Benny show.
