Transcript

The Kraft Foods Company presents Willard Waterman as the Great Gilder's Leave. The Big Gilder's Leave is brought to you partially transcribed by the Kraft Foods Company, makers of the famous pasteurized processed cheese food, Velveeta.

Velveeta has a wonderful cheddar cheese flavor that's rich, yet delightfully mild. It's delicious, and it's the finest quality cheese food you can buy because it's made by Kraft. The name that for years has meant only the finest in cheese and cheese foods.

Get a package or loaf of velveeta tomorrow and enjoy the cheese food of top quality, velveeta, made only by craft. Well, the great Gilder sleeve in his family had a fine summer. His nephew Leroy went to camp, Marjorie Bronco and the twins vacationed at Vitawee Lodge.

Little Leroy is mellowing. Yes, sir. I ain't heard a door slam since he came home. Oh, my goodness. Hi, I'm glad you're home. Leroy, what are you so excited about? I just came from Piggy's. He's got a car.
