What happens
Luigi Basko attends night school in Chicago, where his teacher, Miss Spaulding, is leaving for a week to visit her sick sister in Milwaukee. Before she goes, Luigi and his classmates express their sorrow at her departure. Her replacement, Mr. Hine, proves to be a strict teacher who hands out zeros freely, and the students begin to grumble about his methods. Life with Luigi is a comedy series, and this episode was broadcast on November 13, 1951, with Mr. J. Carrol Naish starring as Luigi and Alan Reed as Pasquale.

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.
