But thank you and good evening ladies and gentlemen Not that we haven't musicians who have St. Fitus dance in the band. You don't know when they stand up, it looks like Roseland with instruments. Well, thank you.

Thank you. You're just in time, lay those ladies come in. You want to read the opening over again. Well done. Well done. Just a word to play with. This is Mr. Gonzale who announces the program.

My name is Alan. He has just introduced me from now on 59 minute lull and Fourth Commercials. And good evening, ladies and gentlemen. Yes, Harry. Harry, this is our last program in New York for the season.

Yes, well, that's right, Fred. Tomorrow we'll be winging our way to Hollywood. Winging our way? What is that winging, Harry? Oh, well, winging our way is an expression, Fred. You know, winging is the binocular for travel.

Instead of saying I'm traveling to Hollywood, I say I'm winging my way. Oh. After all, from New York to Hollywood, is 3,000 miles as the crow flies. Oh, well, if you're going by crow, Harry, then...

I thought you were going by train. So in your case, winging is the word. And I'll wait a minute. After all, if the letters are in there, you might as well pronounce them. There you take that G, it's been in winging a good many years tonight.
