Transcript

The following is a delayed broadcast by a transcription. The Jell-O program coming to you from the Marine Corps base in San Diego brought to you by Jell-O and Jell-O Puddings starring Jack Benny with Mary Livingston, Phil Harris, Dennis A. Rochester and you're truly darn Wilson. The orchestra opens the program with Call Out the Marines!

Have you noticed how extra rich Jell-O is today? Now the Jell-O's wonderful flavor is locked in? Well, there's never been anything like it. Just never been anything more delicious. Locking in Jellows' flavor heightens its goodness.

Brings it to a new peak of delight. Now more than ever Jellows shimmering color and beauty hold a promise of rich enjoyment. A promise that is gloriously fulfilled in Jellows' bright refreshing flavor. Flavor so thrillingly good that it makes you think right away of the juicy ripe fruit itself.

Let your next package of Jellows prove to you the extra richness of Jellows locked in flavor. Open a package of Jellows. Notice that there's no sweet fruity odor. No telltale aroma to warn of escaping flavor.

Then dissolve the tiny jello particles and notice the way jello's captive goodness comes pouring out with a rush of rich, tangy fragrance and flavor. Ask your grosser tomorrow for several packages of jello. And see if you don't agree that jello is better than ever.

Now the jello's famous flavor is locked in. Well, call out the Marines played by the officer. Now, ladies and gentlemen, as I announced before, and I've been out before. Our program this evening comes to you from the United States Marine Corps base in San Diego.

Yes sir. The Marines who sail the seven seas on our battleships and cruisers, who pitch their tents in the blazing heat of tropical jungle, or face the wintry winds of the far and off. You said it.
