Transcript
The craft foods company presents Harold Perry as the great Gilder Slee. The great Gilder Slee is brought to you by the craft foods company makers of the famous Philadelphia brand cream cheese. Philadelphia brand is far and away America's favorite cream cheese. That's because it's so creamy white, so delicately rich and so fresh tasting. But remember there is only one Philadelphia cream cheese.
It's the brand that's made by craft and guaranteed fresh. So when you buy cream cheese, always look for the name Philadelphia brand, right on each silvery package. Now it's dinner time at the great Gilder sleeves house, and it looks like Leroy will be the first to finish.
I wonder if the fact that little Brendan Knickerbocker's waiting for him across the street has anything to do with it. I don't want to desert, Ench. Leroy, what's wrong with your appetite? In the spring of young man's fancy turns to Lavonky, even Leroy.
Oh, Marge. No, Marge, we don't tease. It's time Leroy learned to be at ease around girls. Is that Brenda waiting for you, Leroy? You see what I mean, Marge, he needs this sort of thing.
She wants me to meet a friend of hers from Baltimore that just got here. She does? Well, as long as you're having Brenda over tomorrow night, why don't you invite her visitor to your little party, too?
Yeah, I guess I'd better. Yes, I better. Yeah, little Leroy with two girlfriend. Aww, that's a switch. Last year all he wanted to do was wiggle his ears and listen to the Lone Ranger. Nah, Marjorie.
I wonder who's at the door? I bet it isn't the Lone Ranger. I'll go see. Never mind, Bertie. Leroy's gone. Jeff the Bell. Oh, yeah, cute little girl. I just finished supper. I didn't enjoy Russian, but it seemed I was waiting for you so long.
