The Big Show, 90 minutes with the most scintillating personalities in the entertainment world, brought to you this Sunday and every Sunday and the same time as the Sunday feature of NBC's All-Star Festival.

And here is your hostess, the glamorous, unpredictable, Tullula Banken! I'm a little sad today. This is our last show of the season before returning the fall. And it has been a turbulent season.

But in spite of the squabbles and the tantrums and the incremental outbursts, all of us on the show have learned to know and appreciate one another to the fullest. And thank Heaven, we don't have to look at one's another again for four months.

And to you, darling's, our listeners, thank you for those thousands of letters. I've read every one of them and believe me when I say an awesome serenity I don't know how they allow stuff like that in the mail but thanks thanks really for those of you what's also enough to take the time

and bother to sit at home and make all those cunning little gifts you sent me I mean the ones that take and have to be soaked in water and if you think it's Easy to soak those old things.
