Transcript

Grape Nuts Plate Program, the first radio program to come to you from William's Field near St. Louis, Arizona, starring Jack Benny, with very Livingston, Phil Harris, Dennis A. Rochester, and yours truly, Don Wilson. In all friends, the other night I saw a movie about a young man as rich and distinctive as, well as, the rich distinctive flavor of Grape Nuts' flakes.

Any better young girl as truly appealing as, well, as an appealing bowl full of Grape Nuts' flakes. God-married, they lived as happily as, well as happily as folks who have that grand tasting grape nuts flakes of breakfast every morning.

Well friends, the moral of the story is just this. You'll find moley rich, sweet as a nut grape nuts flakes, a delirate nut flakes bring you your balm of delicate, toasty brown flakes. A flavor that's utterly distinctive because it's a too grain blend of sun-ripened wheat and vaulted barley, toasted golden brown and grape nut flakes, America's fastest growing

cereal. So for a smooth tasting, delicious breakfast treat, ask for grape nuts flakes in the thrifty 12-ounce package. This is the army, Mr. Jones, played by the orchestra. And now, ladies and gentlemen, from Williams Field near Chandler, Arizona, we bring you a man who, after a week under the blazing Arizona sun, no longer looks like a frog's belly in the moonlight. Jack Benny!

Thank you, thank you. Hmm, Frog's belly in the moonlight. Uh, Delo again? I mean, Grape Nuts flakes again. Uh, this is Jack Benny speaking, and Don, although you put it rather crudely, there's no question about it.

I do look much better with my desert hands. Yes, Jack, you certainly do. Oh, why not? I'm outdoors all the time, horseback riding, swimming. I tell you Don, I feel like a million dollars. I mean, 25,000, you can't feel like a million dollars.
