Transcript

My Perkins, kitties. The makers of Blue Bonnet Margarine and Tenderleaf Tea present the Fred Allen Show with Porton Hoffa, Minerva Fire's Mrs. Nussbaum. Allen Reed is false staff open shore. The Tenderleaf workshop players, the Demarco sisters, and Al Goodman and his orchestra.

And in a few minutes I will be Senator Claghorn. But right now my name is Kenny Delmar. Here he is again, Fred Allen. Thank you and good evening ladies and gentlemen. and Kenny, those Mexican league owners are signing anyone apparently.

It isn't safe to even look like a ball player these days. I know a fellow who is walking down Broadway, he had athlete's foot. A Mexican crept up behind him and slipped $20,000 into his hair.

Well, I hope... You and I will enjoy it. Let's go. But you and I go up in a corner someplace in the store. Well, I was kind of worried because I hope the whole Mexican don't feel any more Brooklyn player.

Well, if they do, Kenny, let me warn you that Leo Derosia is going to get even. How? Well, if the Mexicans take one more dodger, Leo Derosia is going down to Mexico and he's going to bring back Tito Gazzard to play shortstop for Brooklyn.

I hear one Mexican team is so short of men, they have a bull playing center field. The bull was formerly with the outskipped arrest of a dispatch of a portly. Would you come in? There's another dead one.

I'll show you that the line wouldn't have gotten anything. The rest of it was the bull was formerly with the Cincinnati Reds, but he couldn't keep his mind on the game. It would have been a waste of time to even read it.
