He is, folks. During the day, he stars in movies like Wake Island, Guadalcanal Diary, and Lifeboat. But tonight, he's all set to celebrate New Year's Eve. And how? Right after the program, me and my wife are going to a real wild Hollywood party.
She's wearing her evening gown. I'll be wearing my tuxedo. We got two stools reserved to thrifties drugstore. The American Meat Institute presents William Bendix in the Life of Riley. The Meet People of America, providing a great food for a great nation.
