 Good health to all from Rexall. Yes, it's Sunday. Time for the Phil Harris Alice Faye show, presented by the makers of Rexall drug products and your Rexall family druggist. Good evening. This is your Rexall family druggist, taking a little time from behind the prescription counter this Sunday evening to speak for all 10,000 of us. The 10,000 druggists who have added the word Rexall to our own store names. You can always tell us by the orange and blue Rexall sign in our windows. The sign means that we carry the 2,000 or more drug products made by the Rexall drug company. They range all the way from aspirin to penicillin, and they're as fine and pure and dependable as science can make them. We recommend them to our customers because we know you can depend on any drug product that bears the name Rexall. Good health to all from Rexall. And now your Rexall family druggist brings you the Phil Harris Alice Faye show, written by Ray Singer and Dick Chevrolet, with Elliot Lewis, Walter Tetley, Robert North, Jeanine Rousse and Whitfield, Walter Sharf and his music, yours truly Bill Forman, and starring Alice Faye and Phil Harris. Today, as we look in on the Harris's, Phil and Alice have just arrived in NBC for rehearsal of their radio program. Hey, we better hurry, Alice. We'll be late for rehearsal. I don't want to set a bad example for the guys in the band. You know, since we've got a new sponsor, those guys have changed. They've become gentlemen. I haven't noticed any change in them. Well, I have and I work with them. I laid the law down to them last week. I said from now on, we ain't going to have any more horse playing or poker games at rehearsal. Good for you, Phil. Well, we better get in and the boys will start playing without you. They can't start without me. Why not? I got the dice. Well, the Rexall people aren't going to like that. You're in enough trouble with the company already. What trouble? Last week at their store, you insulted a customer and smashed every bottle on the perfume counter. Gosh, Phil, aren't you ever going to grow up? Why do you always get into trouble? I don't know. I guess it's just the Peter Pan in me. Make things worse when you cut your hand you let Frankie sign your contract with the Rexall Drug Company. Well, how was I to know he'd sign his own name instead of mine? You know, Phil, with that contract, Frankie is now legally the star of the program. Oh, nonsense. Frankie's probably forgotten about that contract already. You seem to forget that Frankie's my pal. He wouldn't try to take over. Don't worry about it. You'll see just as soon as we get into the studio. That's why the sponsor insisted that I be the star of this show. Hey, you mean you're in charge now, remember? From this moment forward, I am your leader. You ought to accept my orders with unquestioning obedience. I am an absolute power. Respect than you showed to your former leader. How's the trouble with him? He was nothing but... Don't just say nothing about him. He was our leader for ten years and did a great job. We'll never forget how he's had a soft spot in our hearts for good old form. He's still with us. I'm gonna let him play the cymbals. Just because I'm the star of the show don't mean I'd throw him out. He's my pal. What do you think I am, a heel? Of our new sponsor, you'll notice I made a few changes in the orchestra. I've added three new violins and a lady. Harpist. Another thing, from now on, I'm gonna do the singing. So let's go over my number. I'm singing, that's what I like about the South, but I'm changing the lyrics. Because they're corny. Won't you come with me to Alabama? Come and see my dear old mammy. She's boiling eggs and frying hammy, and that's what I like about the South? Nothing. I'm changing the lyrics to fit my personality and birthplace. From now on, it goes like this. Won't you come with me to North Dakota? Come and see my dear old motor. He's mixing me a scotch and soda, and that's what I like about the North? Yeah! Okay, Remli, you can step down now. The maestro's here. I knew I should mature up! Ha ha ha! Hey, that was a funny gag. You're signing your name to my contract last week. Ha ha ha! Imagine. You the star of the program. Ha ha ha! Ha ha ha! You're a clip, kid. Ain't I? Alright, sit down and play the cymbals. I got a band of herds. Cymbals, Remli, listen to me. Please! You're running me into overtime. Ha ha ha! Alright, fellas, one chorus of our new theme. That's what I like about North Dakota. Hey, wait a minute. You're not singing. That's what you like about what? North Dakota. That's the last straw. Now get off of this stand. But my contract... Get off of here. Now, look, I don't know what Remli told you guys, but I'm still the boss. I'm your leader. High elation! High elation! Why? I don't want any more of that. Why does he keep calling me Isham? Alright, fellas, look. Now we're doing that's what I like about the South and we're doing it my way. Hit it! Me too, Alabama. Let's go hold it! Smuggleship Fields into the South. Oh, harpist I hired. Harpist? Please, lady, will you take that screen door and get out of here? I just don't know. I can't understand you. At times you remind me a little Willy. You mean Alice's brother? No. Willy Green. Now, Willy Green was from New Orleans and just as mean and selfish as he could be. Just like you. He always wanted part of what somebody else had, but he didn't want to give nothing to you. And then one day, his mother baked him a jelly roll. Yeah. That's the best cake that was ever made. And then when Willy's little friends all gathered around and asked him for a piece, just like you, here's what little Willy said. I ain't going to give nobody none of my jelly roll. I wouldn't give you a piece of cake to save your soul. My mom told me today just before she went away be a good little boy I'll bring you a toy I'm a mama's pride and joy and there ain't no need for you to keep on hanging around I love you and I hate to turn you down Now you kids are awful sweet but my jelly roll just can't be beat I know you wanted you craving for it but I ain't going to give you none I ain't going to give nobody none of this jelly roll I wouldn't give you a piece of cake to save your soul Cause my mom told me today just before she went away be a cute little boy I'll bring you a toy I'm a mama's little raw and there ain't no need for you to keep on hanging around I love you and I hate to turn you down Now you kids are awful sweet but my jelly roll just can't be beat I know you wanted you craving for it but I ain't going to give you none I rehearse my song now Don't bother Alice we won't have time for either one of you to sing What do you mean? As star of the show I've decided to do a long guitar solo My lawyer says as long as I have that contract it gives me the money Now that doesn't give me back that contract One hand me you uncouth symbol banger You don't think I'm full enough to carry the contract with me I got it hidden safely away at home Let me tell you something Remli you're not going to get away with this because oh come on Alice let's get out of here That character I'll break every bone in his body Now Phil Phil don't lose your temper You won't get the contract back by antagonizing Frankie You've got to use your head about this No I guess you're right But to think my my best friend would double cross me That's what hurts Isn't there anybody I can trust Isn't there somebody that I can admire and respect Good morning Phillip Will he please Not now Will he not now Better leave him alone William He's not in a very good mood He has a problem that's getting him down Why Phillip I'm surprised that you are letting problem get you down I find problem stimulating I believe in standing up to a weighty problem and defeating it Or as a Chinese philosopher once said He who wrestled with problem get toe-holed on adversity Thank you Anna Mae Wong If you tell me your problem I'm sure I can help you Yes indeed Get out Will you let me You can help Willie You see Phil let Frankie sign That's all contract for him And now Frankie is taking advantage of it And is taking over the show Well Phil won't be on the air anymore I see But what's the problem Your information wise guy He's getting Alice off of the show too Now if you'll excuse me I gotta go and figure this out Getting my sister off the show Wait for me Phillip Alice I brought the children down I thought we all might have lunch together No it's Phil Wait Phillip I'm coming with you Poor Phil This thing really has him down I wish there was some way I could get that contract back from Frankie No mommy Hi mommy Where'd daddy go?

Phil's troubles make us realize we all have our problems Yes, even including Rex Hall's men of science For instance, every so often they must invite a select group of bacteria to a special dinner and watch them while they eat it Sounds strange, doesn't it? But drug compounds often contain such tiny amounts of some ingredients that they're almost impossible to measure And that's when the Rex Hall scientists actually serve bacteria several course meals Each course consisting of different amounts of the ingredient they wish to measure You see, bacteria like human beings need certain things in order to live And if those factors are present in the proper quantity the bacteria will naturally grow and thrive So by the way these bacteria guests react to each course of this elaborate dinner Rex Hall's men of science are able to determine whether or not the ingredient being measured is present in the formula in the proper quantity Now, the free dinner for bacteria is just one example, of course But any Rex Hall druggist will tell you that each of the 2,000 or more drug products made by Rex Hall gets the same kind of precise and painstaking testing That's why when you ask us to recommend a brand, we just naturally answer You can depend on any drug product that bears the name Rex Hall Good health to all from Rex Hall Look, kid What's the matter? Well, I want to apologize for breaking into your apartment Oh, that Well, Alice told me that you gave her the contract and, well Sorry, Frank, I came back to thank you Oh, it's nothing, Curly Oh, yes it is Oh, it is As long as you had that contract you had me in a hole No, nonsense Sure you had me in a hole You could have become the star and made yourself a lot of money I just want to say that it was very unselfish of you Oh, I know I guess I'm just a soft-hearted schnook Well Goodbye, Curly Bye, pal Now, let's see, where did I put the photostatic copy of that contract Hey, mister, what's that sign on your window say? Rex Hall, sonny What is Rex Hall? Well, first of all, it's a family of fine, pure drug products more than 2,000 of them made by the Rex Hall Drug Company, son Rex Hall also means the only stores where you can buy these Rex Hall drug products Oh Watch for Rex Hall's big one-cent sale October 20th through the 23rd On those four days you can buy two famous guaranteed Rex Hall products for the price of one plus one cent Look for Rex Hall's big one-cent sale at every store with the orange and blue Rex Hall sign in the window This program was produced and directed by Paul Phillips The part of Frankie Remley was played by Elliot Lewis and Julius was played by Walter Tetley Alice Fay appeared through the courtesy of 20th Century Fox This is Bill Foreman wishing good health to all from Rex Hall Stay tuned to this station for the Edgar Bergen Charlie McCarthy show which follows immediately This is NBC, the national broadcasting company
