Transcript

Good evening. This is Dr. Robert Allison of Grove Falls, better known as Jeep's father. Would you like to feel my muscle? I'm not really very strong, but I've been hearing that question so often around the house lately that it slips out every now and then.

You see, we had an arrow escape recently. I almost wound up by being the father of a professional strong man. I'm referring to my enthusiastic young offspring, my son Jeep. Yes, it's my son Jeep, the bright and warm-hearted adventures of the Allison family of Grove Falls, transcribed by the National Broadcasting Company, and starring Donald Cook as Doc,

with young Martin Houston as wonderful, unpredictable, 10-year-old Jeep Allison. And now back to Dr. Allison and tonight's story about my son Jeep. An opening could be more aware than I of the advantages of a sound and healthy body.

Being a doctor, it's my principal concern. But a bodybuilding, like almost everything else, can be overdone. Particularly if the builder is a ten-year-old boy named Jeep. Hi, Jeep. Hi, Barb. I'm E. Miss Miller. That's all right. You can call me, Barbara.

Well, would it be respectful? Now listen, aren't we good friends? Sure. And don't I call you by your first name? After all, if you keep calling me Miss Miller, I'll have to start calling you Mr. Allison.

Awwww, that'd be silly. I feel the same way. So you call me Barbara. I like it. So do I, Miss Miller. I mean Barbara. Yes, Mr. Allison. I mean Jeep. What'd you say I look like a weakling?

A what? You know, a person is weak. I never saw a healthier looking boy in my life. What's all this about? I gotta get built up. What for? Because I don't want to be a weakling the rest of my life.
