Transcript

The General Program starring Jack Benny with Barry Livingston, Phil Harris, Dennis Day, and yours truly, Don Wilson. The orchestra opens the program with Ma, he's making eyes at me. On the housewives, tomorrow's going to be a very busy day, the way Monday usually is.

And that's why tomorrow is the excellent time to let Jello take care of the dessert at dinner. For one of the great things about jello, it's so quick and easy to get ready. It takes a little of your time.

And it's pretty well to know that any jello dessert you make will meet with your family's enthusiastic approval. Jello you know is extra good because it has an exciting extra rich flavor. And this extra rich flavor that's smooth, tangy goodness is really something swell.

It's grand in repressing as the real juicy right fruit itself. Yes, a clear shining mold of tempting jello, easily and quickly prepared, would make a mighty welcome addition to your evening menu tomorrow. So, ordersome the first thing in the morning. And while you're about to try those new jello pudding too.

Already there's a big dessert sensation to the nation. Rich, creamy, satin-smooth pudding, yours to enjoy in the three popular flavors, chocolate, vanilla, and butter skies. Ask your girls tomorrow for Jell-O and those new delicious dessert Paul America's talking about. Jell-O putty.

Can I add to me played by the orchestra? Now, ladies and gentlemen, this being the second week of Leepyear, we bring you a man who hasn't leaped in years, Jack Benny.

Well, you know, again, this is Jack Benny talking, and down, that was about the silliest thing I've ever heard. I wish that during this new year, your introductions would make a little more sense. Well, I'm sorry, Jack. I was really trying to tie you in with Leepyear, that's all.
