We invite you to enjoy life, life with Luigi, a new comedy show created by Say Howard, and starring that celebrated actor, Mr. J. Carol Nash with Alan Reed as a spy. And here we go, and Luigi Vasco left Italy to start his new life in America.

He promised his mother that he would drive and tell her about his adventure. So now let's read Luigi's letter as he writes to Momma Vasco in Italy. Little Mom and the Year. America is the land of a very high standard of eleven.

Everybody is saving some money so you can buy a refrigerator, a washing machine, a dishwasher, and a vacuum cleaner. Seems like everybody here has got these things. People who can afford, they buy. People who can afford, they go on a quiz program.
