Your neighborhood chevron gas station invites you to... Let George do it! Brought to you by the makers of climate-tailored chevron supreme gasoline and RPM-compounded motor oil. Let George do it!

That's the slogan George Valentine hung in his office when he got out of the army with an idea and not much money to back it up. When the client shows up with a problem, George is happy.

When no client appears, George is still happy. The Worry department is handled by his secretary, Claire, and her brother Sonny. Right now, George is sitting in his office when suddenly he hears a commotion outside.

Claire, hey Claire, come in here. What's the matter, Mr. Dontime? Oh, what's all that noise about? Well, there's a crowd outside our office building. Really? I wonder what's wrong. No, it must be some celebrity.

Yeah, they're getting autographed. Growley, look at the mob. What must be someone very famous, maybe it's the president? Poor Donald Duck. I'm going downstairs to see. No, Claire, you stay here, that mob will tear you to pieces.

I got it. I got his autograph. Sonny. Sonny, look at your shirt. It's in shred. Oh, it's a little thing like a shirt. I got his autograph. Look, see? Jimmy Jones. Jimmy Jones. Jimmy Jones.

Jeepers, don't you even know who he is? Wait a minute, don't tell me. Let me guess. I know he's a fullback for Notre Dame. A player named Jones on the Notre Dame squad? Oh, now I know, of course.

Jimmy Jones, he's an actor. He plays in cowboy pictures. He's not just an actor. He's a hero. Mr. Valentine, you know Thunderbolt, don't you? Ha ha ha. I don't think I've ever had the pleasure.

Oh, Thunderbolt's as famous as Jimmy Jones. It's his horse. Did you get his autograph too? Well, the crowds practicing gone. Now maybe we can get a little work done in this office. That is, if you feel up to it, Sonny.

Uh, thank you, pardon. But I'm looking for George Valentine. Well, you found him. Come right on in. You're Mr. Valentine. That's right. Say, haven't we met before your face looks awfully familiar? You know, I was just gonna say the same thing to you.

Your face looks awfully familiar too. Mr. Valentine, it's Jimmy Jones. You've seen him in the movie. Oh, well, sure, of course. Sonny, is this your hero? Sonny. Sonny. He's petrified. Jimmy Jones. Standing right in front of me.

He's one of your many fans, Mr. Jones. Well, that's awfully nice of you, Sonny. May I shake your hand? My hand. This is your hand, Sonny. Come on, put it out. Glad to know you, Sonny.

I'll never worship again. And this is Sonny's sister, my secretary, Claire Brooks. Don't shake her hand. Look what it did to Sonny. Mr. Valentine, I've heard about you and I'm hoping that maybe you can help me.

Well, I've never failed anyone yet. Sit down, Mr. Jones. I wish you'd call me Jimmy. Okay, Jimmy. Okay, Jimmy. I hope Claire and Sonny won't mind, but this might as little confidential. It's nothing I'm ashamed of, understand, but I've got to keep it quiet for business reasons.

What do you can trust us, Jimmy? Oh, you have nothing to worry about on that score, Mr. Jones. We won't say a word. I'd die first. Hey, you see, die first. Now go right ahead.

Well, the trouble is the kids like me. Maybe they like me because I like them. I'm crazy about kids, George, and I'd never want to disappoint them. I just can't let them down. Well, of course not.

Why would you let them down? let them down. Maybe you've heard. I was raised in an orphanage, the Brookdale orphanage. And every year thunderbolt my put on a benefit performance for them. Naturally they expect me to be there this year too. Naturally. And they'll expect to see me riding my horse thunderbolt. Naturally. George, Claire, Sonny, you mustn't breathe a word of this to anyone.

You disappoint kids all over the world. Cross my heart. Please promise. Go ahead, Jimmy. What's the matter? Well, I'm afraid of horses. You're what? Oh, you can't think. Suffering cat. You see, we were shooting a picture in something frightened thunderbolt. He shied and stumbled.

He threw you? That's right, and then he stepped on. Oh, how awful. Oh, it was an accident. Thunderbolt didn't mean to hurt me, but I was laid up for a long time. After that, I just couldn't get up enough nerve to ride him. Well, for that matter, to ride any hoards.

But Jimmie... I know it sounds silly, George. I keep telling myself that, but it doesn't do any good. Oh, sure, sure. I understand. What about your career? career. Well since the accident they have a double who does the writing for me. Oh I see.

If this came out you'd be through and picture you. Oh that's not important. Think of the kids. Why if they found out they wouldn't believe in anything anymore. Well that settles it Jimmy. You can't make a personal appearance at the Brookdale orphanage this year.

You can't take the chance. But George those kids are looking forward to it. Your trouble is that you're too sentimental about kids. Now you have nothing more to worry about Jimmy. I'm in complete charge. I was hoping you'd say that.

I'll tell them you had a nervous breakdown or something. You can send a thunderbolt with one of his trainers. But they want to see me riding the kids will never forgive me. Now you leave that to me, will you Jimmy?

I'll take care of them. I know just how to handle kids. Mrs. Meijne is a superintendent of the Orphanage. She's in the play yard with the children now, but I'll get it for you, Mr. Valentine.

Thanks, Miss. Just tell her it's about Jimmy Jones. I'm sort of taking charge of things for us. Oh, you know Jimmy Jones. Yes, of course. Oh, I'd love to have his autograph. Oh, are you anybody?

Uh, no, nobody much. Would you tell Mrs. Martin we're here? Oh, yes, of course. Let's make ourselves right at home. I'll only be a minute. It's Valentine. What are you going to tell Mrs. Martin?

Just the Jimmy's been working too hard. And then he can't appear here. That's all. There's nothing to it. Oh, those poor kids. Oh, now, Claire, you're making too much of this. You're as bad as Jimmy.

It's ridiculous worrying about a bunch of kids. a bunch of kids. He's got to protect his career. But he means so much to them. Now listen, Claire. He can't appear at the benefit. Do you understand?

Anyway, the kids are more interested in seeing his horse. That's not true. Well, Jimmy can send over some ice cream and cake. That'll get them. Just fill up their stomachs and they'll be happy. Mr. Valentine, how can you be so hard-boiled?

I just face facts, that's all. Oh, I'm gonna wait outside. Where? I prefer fresh air. Women. Oh, hello. What's your name? Where do you live? What? How old are you? Well, hey, now hold everything.

Why the third degree, honey? Do you always talk in questions? What? Now, wait a minute. Look, we're not getting anywhere this way. My name is George. Never mind the rest. Now, come on. Tell me something about yourself.

I've got a pet mouth. Oh, yeah. Oh, fine. We're going to move the wrong tail. Really? What's his name? George. George. George. How? What a coincidence. I just named them George. Oh, I see. Well, thank you, honey. That's quite a compliment.

You know any games? Games, uh... Well, now let's see. I used to play some games with my nieces. What are nieces? Well, nieces are... Well, they're... what are people? I mean, well, I'm their uncle, see?

So, that makes them my nieces. You get it? I don't have any uncle. Oh, well, that's tough, honey. But I have a brother? Well, wonderful. I always say there's nothing like a brother. Why, that's a million times better than an uncle.

Jimmy Jones is my brother. Jimmy Jones? He told all us kids he'd be our big brother. So now we each have a family, don't we? Oh, yeah, sure. Look, honey, how would you like another brother?

Could you use to someone like me? Oh, no. You wouldn't like me for a brother? No, I'm going to marry you. Well, that settles. You want me to teach you again? Yeah, I'd love it.

We could play hard things. Well, that sounds exciting. What do I do? You get down on the floor on your hands and knees. Do I have to? Don't you want to play with me? Okay, honey, you would.

Now what? Now I get on your back. Alright, here we go. Hey, go now. Hey, go now, honey. Well, you're the hard loyal Mr. Valentine. Oh, Claire, we're playing horsey. You make a beautiful horse.

Oh, thank you. Claire, this is the girl I'm going to marry. Oh, congratulations. Mrs. Valentine, Mrs. Martin, we'll see you now. She's in her office if you'll get following me. Okay, thanks. Bye, honey. Goodbye, George.

See you in about 16 years. Don't forget now. I'm sorry. You're off as done the other side of the play yard. Just wait a minute. Look, I won't bother Mrs. Martin. You give her a message for me, will you?

All right. Just tell her that I personally guarantee that Jimmy Jones will be here for the benefit. And furthermore, he'll be on his horse too. Mr. Valentine, I have Mr. Jones on the phone for you now.

Oh, thanks, Claire. Hello, Jimmy. Hello, George. What's on your mind? Now listen, Jimmy, you can't let those kids down. why they believe in you why they think you're their big brother sounds as though you've been out of the orphanage or well now look you know me jimmy i'm not sentimental or anything like that but

well i can't have her disappointed she named her mouse after me her what yeah it's the first time i've ever had a mouse named after me george what are you talking about justice you've got to ride thunderbolt at the benefit but george i told you since the accident every time i see a horse i

shake what i do to the kids oh gosh you're right jimmy Oh, we can't let him see it that way. Hey, wait a minute. In the movies you use a double, don't you? What about him?

Oh, I thought of him, but it won't work. He's built like maybe he doesn't look like me. The gets-a-get-wise. Well, then all we have to do is to find a double that looks like you. It's a sense, Jimmy. Leave it to me.

Oh, what an office force. What's the matter with you two? All you have to do is to find a man who looks like Jimmy Joe. Well, what was wrong with Red Prescott? His nose turns up and his hair is red.

family burns when he was born on a horse. Yeah, I could see that all right. One leg's been south and the other bent is north. What about Mr. Manning? Is it similar to even if his face is a little long? I told you to find someone who looks like Jimmy, not his horse. Oh, well, it's no use, Mr. Valentine, I give up. But it's just a

simple little job. Find a man about six feet tall with dark wavy hair and blue eyes, a nose that's reasonably straight, not too much chin. Mr. Valentine, what's the Don't you realize who you're describing?

Sure, Jimmy Jones. Someone else too. Huh? You. Me? Hey, that's right. Mr. Valentine, you do look like him. I noticed it the first time I met you. Why, you could be brothers. Why, that's terrific.

Claire, get Jimmy on the telephone right away. Tell him I found his double. George, I know I found the right person. But is it someone we can trust? Trust? Why, this man is the soul of honor.

And what's more, he's got plenty of courage and a heart of gold. Pure gold. That sounds tremendous. Well, I don't like to brag, Jimmy, but if you would have pinned me down, I'd say he is tremendous.

Who is? Me. You? Sure. Remember how familiar we look to each other? I look like you. Oh, that's where I saw you. Yeah, of course. That's wonderful, George. You don't know how relieved I am.

Well, I told you I'd come through with flying colors, Jimmy. Now, be at my office tomorrow morning. OK, thanks a million, George. Don't you mean? Well, it's all said. Say, there ought to be a good fee in this for me.

Oh, sure, there will be, Mr. Valentine. Chief, Professor Valentine, I can hardly wait for the benefit. I can just see you dashing into the arena on thunderbolt. Yeah, it'll be a big moment, all right.

The kids will be clapping and yelling their heads off, and I'll come dashing into the arena, riding on... Great Caesar's Ghost. Mr. Valentine, what is it? What's the matter? I just remembered. What's wrong? I've never been on a horse in my life!

Whether to take George a minute or so to figure out what to do in this situation, meanwhile I wonder how many of you folks can be sure your cars are ready for winter. In many parts of the West, wherever winter means cold or rain, there will be an epidemic of car troubles this year.

Most folks are driving the same old cars, you see, and they're bound to be a little less reliable simply because they're another year older. So here's a good tip. Stop in at your favorite chevron gas station and let the chevron dealer check over your car.

He's an expert and because he's in business for himself, making you a regular customer means a lot to him. So you can bet he'll give your car the best of care. You probably need winter grade RPM motor oil or new windshield wiper blades, the battery may need recharging, or your tires could stand a retread job.

Whatever it is, find out now before the weather gets really bad. in at your neighborhood chevron gas station this weekend and i had to find a double for jimmy john someone who looked like jimmy and could ride thunderbolt finally dawned on all of them that george himself resembles jimmy but then he suddenly remembered that he's never been on a horse in his life

now it's a few minutes later oh that's fine mr valentine that's great you offer to take his place and you've never even been on a horse well there's nothing to it mr valentine i'll teach you how to ride Sonny, you've seen thunderbolt, haven't you?

Sure, lots of times. Is he very active? Oh, yeah, he's a very spirited animal. Oh, a spirited animal, that's what I thought. You're not getting cold feet. Oh, no, no, of course not. But those kids will expect to see someone who can at least stay on the top side of the horse.

You've got nothing to worry about, Mr. Valentine. I'll teach you how to ride. Sonny's really very good. Our grandfather raised horses in the country. My grandfather raised Kane in the city. Come on, Mr. Valentine, we better get started right away.

Now look, Sonny, I want to start nice and easy, understand? Sure, just leave it to me. I'll have you riding like an old cow hen. Okay. Claire? Yes, Mr. Valentine. Goodbye. Goodbye, Mr. Valentine. So I meet you somewhere for dinner?

Yeah. Make it Joe's hamburger, hud. That's in one place in town, we can eat standing up. up. Yes sir, something in toys for the young man. Oh no, not for me, for him. For him, a toy for the gentlemen. Yeah, he wants to. Not so loud. People are listening. Oh, I'll whisper it. Mr. Valentine wants it. He does. Yeah, yeah, I just want him to get the feel of it. Oh, I see. Well, very well, second down to the

lift, tricycle, scooters, kitty cars, and hobby horses. We're okay on that hobby horse, Mr. Valentine. Now for your second lesson. Oh, but do you think I'm ready to ride this horse, Sonny? Oh, sure. Okay, then. Boost me up.

Okay, there you go. Thanks. Now, put your feet in the stirps, Mr. Valentine. Yeah, that's right. Press your knees in. Oh, yeah. Yeah, that's good. Now hold on to the range with your left hand.

That's right. Oh, you look fine, Mr. Valentine. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. OK, here we go. Oh, that's good. That's swell. Hang on, Mr. Valentine. Don't fall off. Oh, Sonny. I'm getting dizzy. Sonny, I can't see anything.

Sonny, help. Stop this. Mary, go around. That's beautiful animal, isn't he, Mr. Valentine? Yeah. Shoot. Very cute. His name's Tornado. Oh, you're... How do you do, tornado? Mr. Valentine, come on down out of the haymow.

He won't hurt you. Sonny, I don't think he likes me. Well, now don't be silly, Mr. Valentine. Come on, get up on him. But do you think I'm ready for a real live horse? The only way we can find out is to try.

Come on. He's up awfully high, isn't he? He's no higher than most horses. Couldn't I try one of the smaller models first? Like that one over there? Mr. Valentine, that's a Shetland pony. You don't want to ride here.

Why not? He has a very kind face. Come on now. Get up on tornado. Alright. Nice tornado. Stand still, boy. I said, stand still. Sonny, tell him to stand still. It's okay. Just jump up on him.

Well, maybe you won't like it. He's used to it. Go ahead, Mr. Valentine. Put one foot in the stirrup and swing the other one over. Alright. Here I go. Mr. Valentine, move! I'll make it. But Mr. Valentine's...

It's all right, Sonny. Sonny, what's happened to this horse? Where's his head? Gets down, Mr. Valentine. You put the wrong foot in this dirt ball. Is that it? I thought there was something wrong. Now, try it again.

Remember, your left foot in this dirt, your right foot swings over. Oh, it's no use, Sonny. You can't teach an old horse new tricks. He's not old. No, but I am. Come on, now, let's get back to the office.

But, Mr. Valentine, what about the benefits? How will you be able to take Mr. Jones's place and ride Thunderbolts? Well, it's no you, Sonny. I can't do it. Gee, I wish I could ride Thunderbolts.

Well, so do I. Like nothing better than the... Sonny. Why not? Huh? Of course! There's our answer! You'll ride Thunderbolts! The George, I don't get it. You do look like me, so why can't you take my place?

Why don't you tell him, Mr. Valentine? Now, Clara, I'll handle this in my own way. Gee, Mr. Jones, please let me ride Thunderbolts. I can handle them, honest. Just ask my sister. Will you keep quiet, Sonny?

You see, Jimmy, I'm afraid that someone might catch you on that I'm not you. Oh, do you think so? Well, I suppose they'll be reporters there. I imagine so. And what if they find out?

They'd ruin everything. Please, Mr. Jones, I know Thunderbolt and I'll get along OK. Yes, Sonny's very good with horses. He's been riding since he was a baby. But how can we work at Sonny? Certainly doesn't look like me.

Well, Jimmy, I got this all figured out. Now, look, it's simple. You walk out and talk to the kids. You know, make a speech. Then I imagine they'll begin yelling for Thunderbolt. He didn't count on that.

Well, fine, fine. Now then, when that happens, you say you brought thunderbolt along, all right? But that you'd like to feel like a kid again and sit in the audience with them. Go on, then what happens?

Well, then you say, uh, how about one of you kids riding thunderbolt? Who'd like to try it? Uh-huh. Now then, Sonny is sitting right in the front row. You can't miss him. And when you say, who'd like to ride thunderbolt?

Sonny jumps up and yells, let me, Mr. Let me. Let me, Mr. Let me. Yeah, that's the idea. And Jimmy, no matter how many kids yell, you choose Sonny. Understand? Well, of course, I wouldn't dare take a chance on someone who didn't know horses.

How does it sound Jimmy? It sounds okay, George, but you sure nothing will go wrong? Listen to him. Now Jimmy, I tell you, you can't miss. Well, what could possibly go wrong? MUSIC You ever see so many children and all your life in the development of life?

It looks as if all the kids in town are here. All except Sonny. Now stop worrying about Sonny, he'll show up. But he should be here now. What's happened to him? Well, I know he went to a movie early this afternoon.

Then I think he planned to buy some riding boots. Riding boots? I can't save this place for how much longer. Why can't he be on time? Oh, just the patient, Mr. Valentine. But they're getting ready to start the show.

Oh, where is that boy? Well, it's not like Sonny to be late. Well, it's your fault, Claire. You should have brought him over with you. That's right, Blamey. But I always get... Oh, Mr. Valentine, they're gonna begin.

Here comes Jimmy Jones now. Oh, where's that scene? I can't imagine what's keeping him. Now, hold it, kids. Hold it. First, I want to tell you how much it means to me to be here again.

You know, every year I look forward to my visitors the brook tail off of it because it's just like coming home again for a reason where's that sunny he doesn't show up but I didn't come here to make a speech I just wanted to say hello to all my friends all my little brothers and sisters

Mr. Ballantman you have to write come before that's impossible I don't even know on which side to get on now is there anything I can do for you care think of something you can't but one of them right him it would be dangerous for me I'll take it easy kid. Take it easy. Take it easy.

That's it. Sunday Bus is here all right. But look, I'm sort of tired of riding. I want to sit down there with the rest of you with my friend. Here it comes. How about one of you riding Sunday Bus?

Mr. Valentine. Who would like to ride? Mr. Valentine. Who wants to ride Sunday Bus? Mr. Here's someone who wants to ride Sunday Bus. Oh, George, go along. Come here, Claire. Stop pushing me. You've got to go now. George, there's no other way out.

Now, Claire. How long you've got to do it? What a spot you put me in, George. George, hello Jimmy, how do you feel? What's happened to son? He just didn't show up. But George, what are we going to do?

The kids are waiting. Somebody's got a ride thunderbolt. George, I'm not clear. I guess you'll have to, George. I'm sorry, Jimmy. I'd like to. Really, I would. But I just can't. Now, George, what are you talking about?

What's the matter with you, George? Nothing. Except that I've never been on a horse in my life. Oh, I'd be... You've never been on a horse in your life. That's right. Oh, this is a fine time to tell me what about all these kids?

They're waiting. Listen, Jimmy. to get up on it. And if I did get up on him I'd never be able to stay there. But you said if I did stay there I'd die of fright. I ought to ring your neck. Now that won't help any. But what am I going to do? Well tell them you just noticed that Thunderbolt is in

this bowl. Yeah tell them he has a headache. Who ever heard of a horse with a headache? He's a very unusual animal. But these kids believe in me. Well they've been looking forward to this day for months. And why don't you ride Thunderbolt? Me? Yes you. Alright I will.

Mr. Jones, you can't. I can't let these kids down. I'll write him if they kill them. Mr. Valentine, stop him. Well, Mr. Valentine, he's getting up on Thunderbone. Mr. Valentine. Oh, I can't look. I'm in the play yard.

On the teeter totter. Oh. Why didn't you stay in the arena? Well, I... I just couldn't take it. But George, it was all right. Jimmy was magnificent. What happened? He wrote thunderbolt just as though nothing had ever gone wrong.

The kid went wild. I heard them screaming, but I thought the worst. Jimmy's looking for you. He wants to talk to you. Oh yeah, I bet he does. Come on, let's get out of here.

But he's anxious to see you. Anxious to break my neck. Oh, not sure. What else would he want to see me for? I was certainly a lot of help to him. Just when he needed me, I failed him.

Not sure. I suppose you think I'm a coward. Of course not. Oh, that's all right. Go ahead. Don't hold back. Tell me what you think. Well, I think so. Please don't say it, Car. I don't want to hear it.

This has been a very happy day for me, George. The present changed to see you this way. What way? I don't get it. Well, you're usually so sure of yourself, but now you're... Well, you're just like a little boy.

Ha ha. You mean, uh... You mean you'd like to take me in your arm? Well... Well, if you have any kind of an urge, Claire, don't suppress it. It isn't good for you. Oh, George, you're wonderful.

Oh, say that again. Oh, George, you're wonderful. Say that again. Oh, George, you're wonderful. Say that again. Jimmy, all right, you talk about acting. Well, your acting makes mine look silly. Acting. Who's acting? Why, do you know you really had me convinced that you were afraid to ride thunderbolt?

And that's just what you wanted me to think wasn't it, George? Yes. Yes. That's exactly what I wanted you to think, all right? Sure, you had to trick me into riding thunderbolt. Trick you? You know that once I got on him, I'd get my confidence back and I'd be cured.

Oh, yes, of course. That's what I had mine all right. George! Well, it was wonderful psychology, George. I don't know how I can thank you. Oh, well, that's all right, Jimmy. Forget it. Glad to help you out.

George, are you trying to make me believe it was all an act? Well, of course. What else? Why, I'm crazy about horses. There's nothing I like better than to ride on a really spirited merry-go-round.

I know that, George, but I couldn't let on even to you, Claire. I was afraid you might give it away. Oh, you see? I had to make the acle good didn't I Jimmy why of course Will you excuse me now Mrs Martin wants to say oh sure Jimmy go right ahead but stick around I have something to show you

It was all an actor And you really like horses like them why I love them There's nothing I like better than a brisk canter down the bridal path and the thing that I bothered to feel sorry When does it start when do I write thunderbolt?

Sonny, what happened to you? Where have you been? Well, I want to see Jimmy Jones and Thunderbolt in their new picture. But Sonny, that was this morning. Yeah, I know, but it was so good I stayed to see it four times.

Oh, Sonny. Never mind, Sonny. We didn't need you. We got along OK, didn't we, Claire? Hmm. Say, Alpe, I'll be able to get a good fee out of this. How much do you think I can stick in for it?

You ought to be ashamed to take anything. Oh, I'm a little bit of the urge. George, you're all right. I'm glad you didn't leave. Come with me. I got a little present for you. A present? I was afraid you wouldn't accept any money from me, Georgie.

That would be just like him, wouldn't it, Claire? How well you know him. So I decided to give you something else. Give me something out of the little present. I think you like him, George.

Like him is a full brother that's thunderbolt. A horse? Of course he's a little wild yet, but think of the fun you'll have breaking him in. George isn't back in a moment. Meanwhile, neighborliness, it always seems to me, as is American, as hot dogs at a ballgame.

Most of us can spot it right away, and appreciate it too. It's one reason I think why many motorists like to drive into chevron gas stations. They're all locally run, you know. Since they're home folks, chevron dealers are mighty accommodating.

Every time you stop at a cream green and burgundy station, You know you're trading with a chap who's in business for himself. Anxious to please you because his success depends upon it. And there's another point worth remembering.

Every chevron gas station carries RPM compounded motor oil and climate tailored chevrons supreme gasoline. They all honor chevron credit cards too. So just about everything a motorist looks for, you'll find at those neighborly chevron gas stations.

Try them when you're out for a drive this weekend. Well, next week George finds himself in the middle of a lot of excitement. You'll probably hear him say something like this. Mr. Valentine. Yes? How are you feeling?

Oh fine, great. Never felt better. Yes. That's all? Valentine, what was that all about? What about it? The same fellow who's been fooling me right along. He's still worried about my health. Chevron gas stations all through the West invite you to be with us again next week for another chapter of Let George Do It brought to you by the makers of Chevron
