Broadcast from Palm Naval Air Station

Now that the US Naval Auxiliary Air Station is 29 pounds, the Lucky Strike program. Starring Jack Benny with Mary Livingston, Phil Harris, Rochester, Larry Stevens, and yours truly, Don Wilson. Ladies and gentlemen, from this spot on the desert that has 29 pounds, we bring you a man with the spot on his head that has 29 hairs, and Jack Benny!

Yes, sir, thank you, thank you. You're going to go again. This is Jack Benny talking and Don, I don't mind you reaching a little for a laugh. But you don't have to go that far.

Hmm. Twenty-nine hairs. I'm calling the two on your chest. Oh. Oh, though, you know Don, I'm kind of proud of those two hairs. I've even named them. Name them? Yep. Abercrombie and Pitch. Abercrombie is the one on the left, but Pitch has been with me a little longer.

Wait a minute, Jack. Pitch is a hair tommy. I know, Don. but it wasn't for a pitch I would have lost Abercrombie. And now this may sound silly, but they really helped me get a raw one.

When I came up to the main gate this morning, the guards alluded and let me write through. The guards alluded you? Yep, as I reached the gate, my shirt blew open. He saw the two hairs on my chest and thought I was an infant.

You don't have to laugh at it, you know, I used to be in the Navy. And believe me, Don, if I were still in the Navy, I'd want to be stationed right here at 29.5.

Yes, sir. I don't know. There's nothing like the desert. It's so beautiful, so colorful. So romantic. Every bit of it. Jack, how can you stand there with your pants full of cactus? That's why the desert is beautiful, colorful, and romantic.
