Chasing Rommel Through Libya

Oh, can it be a ray of sun that makes you happy when he awakes? Oh no, it ain't his un-ray, it's a grape-nut-flakes! Wait a minute. Wait a minute, wait a minute. Don, Don, what's that?

Well, Jack, we have to have a theme song for Grape-nut-slakes, and I thought that would be a good idea. Well, that's awful. You better get another one next week. Okay, the Grape Nuts Flakes program starring Jack Benny with Mary Livingston, Phil Harris, Dennis A. Rochester, and yours truly, Don Wilson.

This is the way the man of the house sounds before he has breakfast. He opens one iron groans, oh what a day. What a day. But wait, give the man of the house a big tempting bowl full of delicious toasty brown Grape Nuts Flakes and then you hear something like this, oh boy what a day, what a day! Same word, same man, but notice the difference.

The difference that goes with a swell tasting breakfast, and it's the making of a swell tasting breakfast you get in each big 12 ounce package of Grape Nuts Flakes. Your favorite, malty rich Grape Nuts flavor in toasty brown tempting flake form.

So keep smiling friends on the home front with plenty of delicious sweaters and not Grape Nuts Flakes. You're all played by the orchestra. Now, ladies and gentlemen, from the Plaza Theatre in Palm Springs, California, we bring you that sun-tanned adenoids.

Adenoids? That's Adonis. Read it right. Oh, yes. Adenoids. That's sun-tanned Adonis. Jack Benny. Well, thank you, thank you.

Alright, for Benny! Thank you, sir. Who is that guy? Hello again, this is Jack Benny talking, and done, it sure is a thrill broadcasting for this all-army audience. Yes, it is, Jack. Just think, we have Army nurses and patients here from Turnie Hospital, soldiers from the Tank Corps at Camp Young, Army Air Force pilots from Camp Hemmett, and pilots and ground crews from the ferry command.
