What happens
Jerry of the Circus follows Jerry, Carmen and Carlos as they talk with the elephant El Mundo after a runaway ride through the backyard. Jerry admits he gave El Mundo the wrong command, and Carmen tells a story about Hilda, a clever elephant who got even with a teasing man who had made her life miserable. Carmen then recounts an incident in Europe where a baby elephant was hurt in a fall and the trainers could not find what was wrong. Carlos arrives with urgent news from a telegram and asks Carmen to hurry with him to find Alfredo and see Mr. Randall. The episode is part of the Jerry of the Circus series, which first aired on October 4, 1937.

Listen for: Carmen's stories about the clever elephant Hilda and the baby elephant, and Carlos's urgent telegram at the end.
Written from the episode itself; it never gives away the ending. Every recording is remastered for the stream: cleaned of rumble, hiss and mains hum (and the old TV whine where we found it), then levelled in two passes to steady broadcast loudness, so one show is never quieter than the next.
