Yes it is June Foray. Her and Daws Butler are both on the flip side of this record. It is called ST. George and the Dragonet. Daws Butler is the voice of just about all of the Hanna Barbera cartoon characters. As well as Captin Crunch From back in the 1960's
@ZoochanSyn ... also many of the Warner Bros cartoons, (Foray = Witch Hazel, etc.., Daws butler = almost all the male voices not done by Mel Blanc... Nasty Canasta, etc...). These are legends!!
As a small kid hearing this on the radio many years ago, I was puzzled and even frightened by it, especially when granny was asked how she had got that bump on her head?
"The sky fell on me this morning!" sounded sinister, and I was afraid the same thing might happen to me...
Was this also an influence on the Nursery Crimes Squad on the Kevin Bishop show?

Is the woman's voice June Foray, of "Rocky and Bullwinkle" fame?

A parody of not just any detective, but Sgt. Joe Friday, LAPD, as portrayed by Jack Webb in the "Dragnet." TV series.

@schlesmail Unlike most of Stan Freberg's targets, Jack Webb had enough of a sense of humor to let the Dragnet musicians take part in this parody.

@westlock Not to mention the other two Dragnet parodies Freberg did ("St. George and the Dragonet" and "Christmas Dragnet")
