Transcript

We are delaying the start of our scheduled program to bring you this bulletin. Washington, the steel strike has been settled. The CIO Steelworkers Union has signed the contract for an 18.5 cent an hour wage increase with the United States Steel Corporation.

The agreement becomes effective Monday morning. Negotiations with the rest of the steel industry will be resumed tomorrow. This bulletin has come to you from CBS News. We now resume our scheduled program. Hey, you, Danny Kay.

Oh, well, let's see. I have a radio listener. Yes, Tom. Could I have a few words with you? I'm all ears. I know, but could I have a few words with you? Well, I suppose you're gonna say something nasty about last week's radio program, huh?

No, okay. This week, I'd like to say something nice for a change. You would? I'd like to, but I can't. Listen, my friend. What I have to say to you can be written on a pinhead.

And if you'll bend down, I'll be glad to write it. Hey, who's your guest star tonight and how did you talk her into it? Oh, this week it's common Miranda. Ah, common Miranda. She's that South American girl who wears those hats made out of oranges, bananas, and apples?

Yeah, yeah, I like those hats. They're so smart, so chic, so nourishing. Does she always wear those hats? Yeah, yeah, except when she's in Boston. Why not in Boston? That's where they ban strange fruit.

Welcome, you're going to be in pretty fast company with that Miranda chick, talking Brazilian. I don't know, and I can rattle off that stuff as fast as she can. What do you prefer, you'll sort on the sort of the poo-boom-boom-boom-boom-boom-boom-boom-boom-boom-boom-boom-boom-boom-boom-boom-boom-boom-boom-boom-boom-boom-boom?
