It's new! It's amazing! It's Prowl, P-R-E-L-L, Procter & Gamble's new radiant cream shampoo in the handy tube. Prowl brings you the life of Riley. Well, the remote's unsightly dandruff, and as little as three minutes and leaves hair radially clean, radially lovely, presents the life of Riley with William Bendix as Riley!
Valley's 17th wedding anniversary is doing a few days and Riley is reacting in typical fashion. That is, he's completely forgotten about it. But that isn't the case with his children, Babes and Junior. But we've only got $25 in the bank. Will that be enough?
We can just make it Junior. The restaurant is charging 150 plates and there'll be 10 people including Mother and Dad. That makes $15. Not least $10 for gifts and extras. What extras? Well, I was thinking maybe a special cake with Happy Anniversary on it.
Babs, maybe we ought to tell Mom and Pop. And file the surprise? Junior, don't be a goon. I know. But remember last year when the lodge threw Pop that surprise birthday party? When Pop came in and saw the table and everything, he got so excited, he kissed the cake and went after Mom with a knife.

Hey, what's that you got there, Junior? Oh, it's nothing, Bob. It's a bank book. Now, that's fine. That's the kind of book to read. Ah. Junior and I pooled our savings and we opened a joint account.
