It's new, it's amazing, it's proud, P-R-E-L-L. Proctor and Gamble's new radiant cream shampoo with a handy tube. The hell brings you the life of Riley. It moves on tightly dandruff in as little as three minutes and leaves hair radially clean.
Radially lovely presents the life of Riley with William Band-X as Riley. If Chester A. Riley could have one wish, he'd probably wish he could have a thousand eyes. Then he could keep one eye on his 16-year-old daughter, Babes, and the others on Babes' 999 boyfriends.
None of whom, according to Riley, are up to any good. For instance, the other night. Hiya, Dumpling. The Lord and Monster is home. Oh, hello, dear. I was bowling tonight. Oh, for heaven's sake will you please not put that bowling ball on the piano?
Yeah, you're right, the ball might get scratched. Anyway, I'm through with that game. Oh, you lost again. I ain't gonna bowl with those guys no more. I don't like their system of scoring. What's wrong with it?
Well, they ought to allow something for knocking down a pin boy. Oh, thank you, you didn't. Yeah, I think they put too much English on the ball. You see, I hold it like this and then I pull back my game.
Don't roll that ball, you'll wait Junior. Oh, kids asleep already? It's only 9 o'clock, it's so really. Junior's asleep, Bab, it's out. Out, it's 9 o'clock, it's so late. Where did she go? With Simon Vanderhopper.
Now don't start. I thought I told Bab to stay away from that loafer. He is not a loafer. Simon's a nice boy. Some boy, 21 years old, he still blows bubble ooze. Oh, he does not.
