 The Kraft Foods Company presents Willard Waterman as the Great Gilded Sleeve. The Great Gilded Sleeve is brought to you by the Kraft Foods Company. In just a moment, the Great Gilded Sleeve. But first, here's important news for you from the makers of Kraft Quality Foods. Tonight, we're making the first announcement on this program of a wonderful new product brought to you by Kraft. Yes, a brand new member of the Kraft family of fine foods. At this point, we're not even going to tell you what the new product is. We're saving that for our next announcement. But be sure to keep tuned to this program. Listen for the big news from Kraft in just a few minutes. Now, the Great Gilded Sleeve. Let's see what's going on in Samapio. I don't know about the rest of the town, but things are pretty quiet in the water department this afternoon. Our worthy water commissioner has dismissed his secretary for the day, and with feet comfortably popped on his office desk, he's engrossed in the page of the Summerfield Indicator, the society page, no less. Yeah. Orkney Pilhauser-Nupchel's announced. Who cares about that? Bessie Clooney weds Oran Stack in double-ring ceremony. She'll have a ring on him all right right in his nose. Well, here it is. Marjorie and Walter J. Thompson to celebrate first wedding anniversary tomorrow. Let's see if they gave the kids a good bright up. Marjorie is the niece of Throckmorton P. Gilder Sleeve, popular Summerfield water commissioner. You what a fine little newspaper. Walter Thompson, known to his friends as Bronco, is the... Anybody in? Oh, come in, Judge. Well, I find the commissioner reading a newspaper. Financial page, no doubt. What are you looking for, Gilder? Orange stock. Someday that old goat's gonna lay an egg. What was that, Gilder? Yeah, I said take off your coat and rest your legs. Well, thank you. Yeah, I was just reading in the indicator about Marjorie and Bronco. You know, they're celebrating their first wedding anniversary tomorrow. I know, Gilder. That's why I stopped in. I brought a little gift for you to take home to the children. Well, nice. I made it myself. You did? Salt and pepper shakers. I read in a magazine how to make them out of two spools. Well, that's very thoughtful of you. Marjorie and Bronco will appreciate it. Just imagine. They've been married a whole year. How time flies. Yeah. Seems only yesterday I was driving Marjorie to the church. And what a happy marriage it has been. Over the turbulent sea of matrimony, their little ship assails steady and true. Undaunted by wind and waves, guided always toward the rainbow by the shining light of the love in their hearts. Judge, what's the matter? I brought myself to tears. Oh, my goodness. Of course Marjorie and Bronco are happy, Judge. They've done very well in their first year of married life. Indeed they have. And I'll tell you why they've gotten along so well. I can take some of the credit for that myself. Oh? You bet. They've been happy simply because I never meddle in their affairs. They live in my house, but I let them live their own lives. I never tell them what to do. You're very wise, Gilded. Well, sorry, you judge. My policy with Marjorie and Bronco is strictly hands-off. I mind my own business. Yes, sir. A most commendable attitude. Four o'clock. Excuse me, Judge. I've got to get home. What's your hurry, Gilded? Yeah, I've got to help Bronco and Marjorie with their plans for tomorrow. First anniversary. I thought you didn't meddle in their affairs. Well, this isn't meddling. It's helping. They've never had a wedding anniversary before. Have you? Never mind. That's a swell idea for tomorrow, Marge. It'll be like having our wedding all over again. Only with no people. There'll be just you and I, Bronco and the minister. I know Mr. Foley will open the church for us. Sure. It'll be our day, all to ourselves. Where should we go? I don't care, Marge. As long as you're with me. Hello, everybody. I'm home. Is that Anki? Marjorie. Bronco. Hello, Mr. Gildersleeve. Well, you're home early, Uncle Marge. What happened? You're nothing. I simply closed up the office. Tomorrow's the big day, kiddies. Lots of things to do. Big story in the paper about your anniversary. I bought 10 copies. Marge has a great idea, Mr. Gildersleeve. Bronco and I are going to be married all over again, Anki. Married again? Isn't once enough? It's a sentimental thing, Mr. Gildersleeve. Lots of people do it, Anki. We're going to reaffirm our marriage vows. We'll have the church all to ourselves. They'll only be the minister. Well, say, by George, that's a great idea. A whole wedding, just like the first one. But without the people. Oh, you have to have people at a wedding. Even an anniversary wedding. That's the best part of it. But, Anki, we will play. Everybody will come and bring presents. I'll wear my tuxedo. We'll have it right here in the living room. And we'll have a big party afterwards. But, Mr. Gildersleeve. I'll get ice cream tonight from Peavey's. Birdie will bake the wedding cake. And we'll put one candle on it. But, Anki... No, don't you kiddies worry about a thing. I'll handle all the details. There isn't much time, but I'll manage it. Uncle Moore? Yeah, I wonder if there's time to get a story in the paper. You have to get Birdie started on the cake. Invite the guests. It's a lucky thing for the kids. I'm an executive. I can make things hum. It was Leroy. Leroy! Hi! It's all over the neighborhood for you. What happened? What's the rush? We've got a lot of things to do. And you've got to help. Marjorie and Bronco's anniversary tomorrow. Oh, for corn's sake. They've been married one year. Big deal. Well, this is a big deal. We're going to have a wedding at the house. Who's getting married? Marjorie and Bronco. Again? You asked for a new one every year like a magazine subscription? This is a sentimental thing. It's a beautiful idea. They're going through the ceremony again to reaffirm their ballots. To reaffirm their whats? Yeah, they're mine. Get a move on. We have very little time. This is the daffiest idea I ever heard of. What do I have to do? Yeah, first of all, I want you to run down to the cleaners of my tuxedo. Have it steamed and pressed. And on the way back, stop in at your piano teachers. Tell her instead of giving you a lesson tomorrow, we'd like to have her play the wedding march. And then get to Floyd's barbershop fast and get a haircut. Have you got that? March the tuxedo, steam the piano teacher, take Floyd to the cleaners. My tuxedo, will you? Your tuxedo? It ain't gonna fit you. Well, he's taking the cleaners, Bertie, to have it pressed. Yeah, I'm in a big hurry. You're going out tonight, excuse me? No, Bertie. This is for tomorrow, the wedding. Wedding? You, Bertie, please. Don't stand in the doorway. I have to telephone. Invite the guests. Call the minister. Yes. Wedding? Yeah? Tomorrow? Yeah, better call the minister first. Yeah, George, it's a good thing I'm here to do these things for the kitties. It takes an older head to get things organized. Please. Yeah, I'm phoning, Bertie. Very busy. What is it? I'm not here so good lately. Did you say we're going to have a wedding tomorrow? Yes, Bertie. Anybody we know? Yeah, of course. Marjorie and Bronco. Oh! Yeah. Bertie, I'll explain later. You're Reverend Foley? Yes. This is Drachmorton V. Gilderslee. How are you, Mr. Gilderslee? You're fine. I'm fine. How are you, Mr. Gilderslee? You're fine. Very well. Thank you. Reverend Foley, are you busy tomorrow in the afternoon? About two o'clock? Did you ask Mr. Gilderslee? Well, you know my niece, Marjorie, and her husband? Yes, I married them just about a year ago. Yeah, that's right. Well, they have a lovely idea. They'd like to be married again tomorrow on their anniversary, to reaffirm their vows. That's a nice thought. I'll be glad to repeat the ceremony. Where is it being held, Mr. Gilderslee? Anki. Excuse me, Reverend. You are this is Marjorie. You mustn't do all this, Uncle Mort. You know what I want to, my dear. Just leave everything to me. I know. Hello, Reverend Foley. This is Gilderslee again. Yes. Thank you for offering your services. The ceremony will be here at my house two o'clock tomorrow afternoon. I'll be there. Fine. Goodbye, Reverend. Goodbye. Well, I've got the wheels turning now. Really, Uncle Mort? Bronco and I had planned. Well, now you don't have to plan. I've taken over all the arrangements. I have broad shoulders. Yes, but... It's nothing. Happy to do it. After all, I'm your uncle. The least I can do on your first wedding anniversary. The twins are waking up. I'll get a... Let's see. Let me see. I have to make out a list of the guests. I don't know. Mr. Gilderslee. Yeah? What is it, Bertie? I'll get a swan. You said Miss Marjorie and Mr. Bronco will get married tomorrow. Well, that's exactly what I said, Bertie. It's their first anniversary. They're going through the ceremony again. Just for sentimental reasons. Oh! Well, that's the nicest thing I ever heard. It's partly my idea. I'm making all the arrangements. We going to the church just like before? No. It's going to be here at the house. There'll be guests and the minister. The wedding march, the whole thing. Land and life. And we'll eat a wedding cake and extra plates and more chairs. Oh, you leave it to Bertie. I'll take care of everything. Good old Bertie. She'll go all out. Learoy, haven't you gone yet? That's the way it's supposed to be. Leave that shirt alone. It's a wedding, Bertie. Angel cake. Learoy, just take the suit. Mr. Gildersleeve. Oh, Bronco. I'm busy getting things organized for tomorrow. I didn't see you. I'll get the ice cream, Bertie. Mr. Gildersleeve. You can shine them when you come back. 30 or 40. 30 or 40. It's certainly my idea. The more of the merrier. Mr. Gildersleeve. Marginized shirt. Well, if you want more, just give me the names. We'll put chairs out on the lawn, open the front windows so they can hear. Uncle, you don't... Margin, you're not imposing on me. Organizing things is my business. This is going to be a beautiful wedding anniversary, probably even bigger than your first one. Gildersleeve, I don't know how you do it, but you just have a way of making people happy. Cleave returns in just a moment. And now here's the news we promised you. Big news from Kraft. It's our first announcement on this program of a wonderful new salad oil, Kraft Salad Oil.

When Marjorie and Bronco mentioned the idea of repeating the marriage ceremony on their first wedding anniversary, the great man stepped in and took over. The plan now is for a huge wedding and anniversary party at the Water Commissioner's house tomorrow. How do Marjorie and Bronco feel about all this? Well, it's not what they had in mind. Yeah, Yielders Sleeve, you've got things running like clockwork. Kicking the oven, guests invited, can I see you at the cleaners? I hope. Well, I have to do now. Let's stop into Pee-Vee's. Order the ice cream and everything will be all set. Hello, Pee-Vee. I don't know, Mr. Yielders Sleeve. What can I do for you this evening? Oh, plenty, Pee-Vee. I want about a gallon of ice cream. A gallon? You want to take it along or eat it here? I'm not going to eat at any place, Pee-Vee. This is for the wedding party tomorrow at my house. Wedding at your house? You bet. Your line was busy, so I called Mrs. Pee-Vee. You're both invited. Well, whose wedding is it, Mr. Yielders Sleeve? Bronco and Marjorie. I thought it'd be a fine idea if they celebrated their first anniversary by going through the ceremony again. Minister and everything. My, my. It's a sweet, sentimental idea. Well, I'll bet you'd like to do it yourself, Pee-Vee. Well, I wouldn't say that. Oh, wait till you see the wedding party tomorrow. A whole house full of people, cake, wedding march. This is going to be the high point of the social season. And I'm arranging it. Marjorie and Bronco like the idea, do they? Like the idea. Why, of course they do. Naturally, they're holding back a little. They don't want to impose on me. I can tell you they're both tickled to death, but I'm doing it. What made you ask, Pee-Vee? Well, most married people kind of like to get away on their anniversary. I know Mrs. Pee-Vee and I do. You do? On our last anniversary, Mrs. Pee-Vee went to Omaha, and I went to Kansas City. Fine anniversary. Yes, it was. Funny thing. We were glad to see each other when we got back. It surprised both of us. Well, this is different, Pee-Vee. Our family likes to stay together. We like friends. The house will be jumping tomorrow. All right. Mrs. Pee-Vee and I will be there. Fine, Pee-Vee. We'll just sit while you jump. See you tomorrow, Pee-Vee. I'll talk to you. Now, my dear, don't say I shouldn't have done it. This was my idea. Now, hold still and let me talk. You haven't let me say a word since you started all this. Well, you know you don't have to thank me. Uncle Mord, Bronco and I appreciate what you're trying to do for our anniversary, and I hate to spoil it all, but we don't want a party. Marjorie, of course you do. No, I don't. Neither does Bronco. We were going to the church, just the two of us, and then have a quiet day all to ourselves. Marjorie. No, Anki. I'm sorry you got yourself into this. I didn't want to hurt your feelings, but now I'm saying no big wedding here at the house. But... No big wedding here at the house. But... No big party. Absolutely no, and that's final. She means it. No, brother. Now I'll have to call the whole thing off. You're so expressed, Donk. I got a haircut and I'll talk to my piano teacher. It's okay for the wedding march. Yeah, you better go back and tell your piano teacher it's all off. What? Yeah. Marjorie put her foot down. No wedding party. What the heck? I can cancel a piano teacher, but I got a haircut for nothing. Well, that's life, my boy. Now I have to call Reverend Foley and tell him it's all off. I hate women. Reverend Foley? Yes. This is Gildersleeve again. Bad news, Reverend. Marjorie and Bronco changed their plans. I guess we won't need you tomorrow. Oh, well, I'm sorry. They'll probably stop by the church for the ceremony. They want to be alone. I understand, Mr. Gildersleeve. Thank you. Goodbye, Reverend. Goodbye. Eh, darn kids, anyway. What's the matter, Mr. Gildersleeve? Leroy says you're down here crying. Yeah, I'm not crying. Look, Mr. Gildersleeve, if you've made all these plans, I think we should go through with them. You think we should... What's this? Marge is a little upset, but she'll be all right. You go ahead and plan the ceremony and the party. Well, sure. Bronco, you have a level head on your shoulders. Well, I know Marge, Mr. Gildersleeve. Yeah, of course you do. Leroy! Yeah! Don't cancel the piano, teacher. The party's on again. Oh! You go up and talk to Marge, Reverend Bronco. I'll call Reverend Foley. Sure. It's gonna be all right. Sure. Reverend Foley? Yes? Gildersleeve again. Hello, Mr. Gildersleeve. Good news, Reverend Foley. Oh? Yes, the children changed their minds again. The ceremony and wedding party will be here as scheduled. Two o'clock tomorrow afternoon. Are you sure? Oh, yes. I just got the word. See you tomorrow, Reverend Foley. Very well. Ah, what a relief. Good old Bronco. And Marge will enjoy it. She likes people. Uncle Mort. Now, Marge, Mr. Gildersleeve was only trying to help. This is our anniversary, Anki. We don't want a big crowd of people. You and Marge, Bronco said... Your uncle's gone to all this trouble, Marge. You keep out of this. After all, Marge, it won't be so bad. Marge, listen. You keep out of this. After you, Bronco. Thompson, you and the minister can just... My goodness. I guess I said the wrong thing. You too, Bronco. Oh, this is Gildersleeve again. Coming up, they might have smoothed everything over. Maybe they patched up their differences while I was out. They couldn't still be mad at each other. Aren't they here? Heck no. Birdie's taking care of the twins. Well, they'll be back. You go read a book or something. What an uproar. Oh, dear. I think I'll lie down in the couch. Ew. Ew. Ew. Ew. Ew. Gildersleeve, you're a metler. You and your big ideas. You probably broke up their whole marriage. You're both gone, not speaking to each other. And the day before their wedding anniversary, Gildersleeve, I hate you. They started out so happily. Just a year ago. I'll never forget. I have this woman for thy wedded wife who lived together after God's ordinance in the holy state of matrimony. Wilt thou love her, comfort her, honor and keep her in sickness and in health. And forsaking all others, keep thee only unto her so long as ye both shall live. I will. Marjorie, wilt thou have this man to thy wedded husband to live together after God's ordinance in the holy state of matrimony. Wilt thou love him, comfort him, honor and keep him in sickness and in health. And forsaking all others, keep thee only unto him so long as ye both shall live. I will. Just a year ago. What have I done? As much as Walter and Marjorie have consented together in holy wedlock and have witnessed the same... Who's that? Hello, woman's church. Who's reading that? Marjorie! Yeah, what happened? Yeah, I must have dreamed. You're getting the phone, Bertie. Who was that, Bertie? That was Miss Marjorie. Marjorie? Where is she? She and Mr. Broncor over at Reverend Foley's house. Reverend Foley? They said they'd love for you and they'll be home tomorrow. Oh, what a relief. Why did they dash out of the house while I was gone? Oh, Mr. Gill's sleep with all the outside help they was getting. You know what they did? You know what, Bertie? They eloped! Eloped? Oops! Where's the twinge? Heat the milk! Man the bottle! Be right back. Don't forget marvelous new craft salad oil. First salad oil for home use ever offered by craft is on sale now at your grocers. Use this new superfined, lighter-bodied oil for those wonderful homemade salad dressings that no one else can make quite like you. Use it in those wonderful chiffon cakes you take such pride in. Use it in all your cooking or baking recipes that call for liquid shortening. Get craft salad oil in either the pint or quart bottle tomorrow at your grocers. Look for the bottle with the beautiful label. Nothing, Leroy. Marjorie and Bronco just decided to be fun to elope. That's all. It was their own idea. All I did was act as a... What's the word for it? Big pest. No! I only did what I thought was right. I'll tell you this, my boy. From now on, I'm going to say absolutely nothing. I'm going to be as tight-mouthed as a clam. Good for you, honk. Well, somebody at the door. Yeah, I'll get it, Leroy. Morning, Gelde. Well, good morning, Judge. I stopped by Gelde to wish Marjorie and Bronco a happy first anniversary. Oh, thank you, Judge. The kitties aren't here. They eloped last night. Eloped? How romantic. Who ever thought of that? Well, in a way, it was my idea. Your idea? You will. I'm going to say absolutely nothing. I'm going to be tight-mouthed to you. The show is written by Paul West, John Elliott, and Andy White, with music by Robert Ambruster.
