Transcript

Ladies and gentlemen, the Jaws of Schlitz Brewing Company of Milwaukee, Wisconsin presents the Halls of Ivy, starring Mr. and Mrs. Ronald Coleman. I recurions. I creaked it. Now I know why Schlitz is the largest selling beer in America.

No wonder it's the beer that made Milwaukee famous. If you like good beer, you'll find it pays to be curious and learn about Schlitz for yourself. Welcome again to Ivy. Ivy College that is in the town of Ivy USA. As it must to all men in the United States, the census taker has finally gotten around to that institution

of learning presided over by Dr. William Todd Hunter Hall. At the moment Dr. Hall and his wife, the former Victoria Cromwell of the London stage, are being interviewed by an efficient young lady with the red, white and blue portfolio.

Now I have a surprise for you, Dr. Hall. You and your wife are number 35 on my list. Why should that be a surprise? Does being the 35th interviewee win something? I'd say two glorious weeks in Gopahone, Nevada.

No. Every 6th person that we count has to answer a few additional questions about his way of living. I've read about it, Tottie. I'll answer it. Thank you, my dear. Now, Ms. Gregg, what would you like to know?

Then to begin with, excuse me, yes, Vicki. Officer Grogan? Yes. Someone has got here. No, I'm not expecting him, Vicki. Well, then I could just get through one day without a visit from that man.
