National Dairy presents the Sealtest Village Store. Joan Davis proprietor, Jack Haley manager, and our guest customer for this evening, Frank Sinatra. And here is the star of our program, Joan Davis. Oh, Sealtest Village Store. Oh, huh, huh. Yeah, Frankie Sinatra arrived in town this morning, and he's coming here to the store. Sure, I'm going to try and get a date with him.

So long, huh. She, John, if I can get a date with Frank Sinatra, I'll bet all the other girls will tear their hair out. Then he'll probably go steady with me, because I'll be the only girl in town who isn't ball-headed.

Tonight our Sealed Test boutonnieres start festivities with a rousing song dedicated to those hardworking, hard fighting advancement of our fighting forces. Gentlemen, to the fighting engineers. We're the fighting engineers, the fighting engineers. We do all the dirty work that dope boys get to cheer.

Who keeps the outfit moving, who covers up the rear Is the dog gone, beavers, the fighting engineers Who builds the roads and bridges when the army's moving up And when the army's on the run who stays to blow him up But oh boy, the signal car will never next one-oh It's just a fighting engineer

In case you want to know We're fighting engineers with thirty hind our ears. We thrill like the infantry and fight like fuckers. We leave the way to battle, they call us pioneers. So don't agrobate us with fighting engineers.

As we look in on the Sealtest Village Store, we find John Davis and Jack Haley discussing a very important event. Oh Jack, who are you supposed to have arrived in town? Frank, umm, Sinatra. Uhh, Frank Sinatra.
