Well, both Grape Nuts and Grape Nuts Flakes are crammed full of energy-giving bodybuilding, whole grain nourishment. And these two delicious cereals have that one and only malty, rich flavor. Grape Nuts Crisp and Crunchy, Grape Nuts Flakes Tempting Toasty Brown Flakes. So don't let breakfast be the forgotten meal at your home. Eat a good breakfast, do a better job. Serve thrifty, nutritious Grape Nuts or Grape Nuts Flakes every morning. Up here. So let's go back a few hours and pick up Jack and Rochester at the house. Shoo, shoo, shoo, baby. Shoo, shoo, shoo, baby. Bye, bye, bye, baby. Your papa's going up to the Murock camp. Got a lake up there and it ain't even damp. They stick out their tongues and make a certain noise. Rochester. Rochester. Oh, shoo, shoo, shoo, birdie. Rochester. When I call, you answer me. Sorry, boss. I was just carried away by my soft tender voice. Well, take off that bow tie. You're not making me swoon. Now, stop it. I don't say things like that when you play your violin. You don't have to. When I play my violin, I really put something in it. I don't know what you put in it, but what comes out is for it. Now, Rochester, the bus will be here any minute to take us to the camp. Everything ready? Yes, sir. I packed your shoes, your ties, your shirts, your snuggies, your radio, your pipe, your hot water bottle, your skis, your bath mat, your ash tray, your bridge... Rochester, I'm going to Murock to entertain, not to enlist. What happened? He went to a camp to entertain. They gave him a gun and booked him into Guadalcanal. Rising Sun is going to be hidden by a dark cloud. Pick up anyone else in our party yet? Yeah, Don Wilson. He's sitting right in the middle of the bus. He is? I don't know how it wasn't sway back when I started. It's a tag a little, doesn't it? And you know, Don, there's a very exclusive place to eat. They're mob greens. What a place. Wonderful food. All right, driver, let's get going. We have to pick up Phil Harris at 619 Spring Valley. Rochester, you sit here. Okay. Shoo, shoo, shoo, baby. Shoo, shoo, shoo, baby. Bye, bye, bye, baby. Your papa's going to... Phil told me he'd be waiting in front of his house. Driver, give him the horn. I can't. It belongs to the company. Ah! It's to be ready when the bus arrive. I've told him time and again when we make these trips, that curl his hair the night before. Well, he was sleeping. Well, maybe. You know, he can't take it off like you do. You have to shake out the blankest of... Rochester, if you don't stop making up things like that, I'll give... Well, here I am, Jackson. Ready to go. It's about time, Phil. What kept you so long? Well, guys, Jackson, I had to say goodbye to Alice before I could leave the house. Being so comical, just drive, will you? Okay. It's 360 North Tamdon Drive. We have to pick up Miss Livingston. Okay, okay. Shoo, shoo, shoo, baby. Shoo, shoo, shoo, baby. That's on a second lieutenant. Let's get going. You're off to visit the soldiers. Yes, why? There's a switch, if I ever heard one. Mary, you always talk about going out with soldiers, and the minute one of mass you for a date, you run home looking for your mother. Well, he always asked me to bring a friend. What are you talking about? The soldiers wouldn't go out with your mother. Go on two weeks at Murock, and they'd go out with you. Dusty here. Now, let's go over and we'll be late. Just a second, Jack. I want to go out in the kitchen and speak to Butterfly. She's taking the rest of the day off. The first time you heard it? No, but... Butterfly, did you like that joke about Miss Livingston going up in an airplane? You know, the one on page two? Well, there's only one sure way, Butterfly. Act hard to get. Have I got a surprise for the gang this week? When we get up to the camp, my band's going to play some of that classical music, you know, that long-haired stuff. Well, don't start anything, you can't finish. Will you, please? What are you talking about? I studied music. You studied music? Yeah. It took you two years to learn how to tap your foot. You wouldn't have learned that if it hadn't been cold. He knows the classics. Well, I do. Ask me a question. Go ahead, ask me. All right, do you know anything about Beethoven's fifth? Listen, Jackson, anything that comes in fifths or pints, I know about. Just play the one number, you know, and keep your fingers crossed. What a guy. Shoo, shoo, shoo, baby. Shoo, shoo, shoo, baby. Bye, bye, bye, baby. Mary, stop with that song. Well, yeah, I'm sick of it. Well, I'm sick of loving Bloom, too. Every time I go to a camp, you play it on your violin. The boys send in requests. I know, but you play it anyway. Hey, driver, driver. Yes, son. Up to the right. There's Dennis Day's house. Okay. You better double park the bus. There's no room there. Oh, I can get in between those two cars. I parked in a smaller space yesterday. Okay. In a smaller place yesterday? Yeah, but now that I think of it, I was on a bicycle. Oh, it's every day. Why don't you take it off the path and put it on the lawn? Why should I go out of my way to trip over it? That's the silliest thing I ever heard. Come on, get on the bus. Hello, fellas. Oh, hello, kid. Hello, Dennis. What a coincidence. What is? I'm seeing so many people I know on the same bus. Yes, it's a small world, isn't it, kid? Okay, driver, let's go. Say, Dennis. Yes, please. What number are you going to do on the program today? I thought I'd sing Smoke Gets in your eyes. Oh, yes, the boys will like that. Better rehearse it in the bus, will you, Dennis? Okay. 33 North Lockett. Okay, baby, okay. Cast is all here. Who are you picking up? I'm taking Alexis Smith with us. Alexis Smith? She was with us last week at the Marine Bay. I know, Mary, but we're going to an army camp today, and the soldiers like to look at a pretty girl. Well, what do you think I am, a GI hamburger? I meant that with both you and Alexis there, the soldiers would see two pretty girls, and it would be a novelty. You want to show them a novelty? Let them look at you, a sad sack civilian. It's sarcastic. Anyway, I was in uniform in the last war. Gee, I didn't know they had wax then. Dennis, I wasn't a whack. I was in the Navy. Oh. I was a sailor. Now, let's forget it. That's what the Navy's trying to do. And, Jack, you still haven't told us why you're taking Alexis Smith with us today. Because, Mary, she's the leading lady of the new picture I'm making at Warner Brothers. What's the name of it, Jackson? The horn blows at midnight. The horn blows at midnight? Yes. AM or PM? If it's midnight, how could it be AM or PM? Listen, Jackson, I just get the laughs. I don't explain them. Because you don't understand them. Hey, driver, three more blocks, and it's the corner house on the left. OK, OK, OK. Oh, we don't get that guy. Oh, we don't get that guy on the next trip. Rochester, give me my box of cigars, will you? Here you are. Thank you. Oh, boss, this is Sunday. Why don't you start a fresh one? This one's only half gone. The box away. OK. Shoo, shoo, shoo, baby. Shoo, shoo, shoo, baby. Bye, bye, bye, baby. Rochester, will you please stop singing that song and drive me nuts? Shoo, shoo, shoo, grape nuts. Eat, eat, eat, grape nuts. Yum, yum, yum, grape nuts. Your pop was off to get the sugar and cream. Well, the words are different anyway. Crunch, crunch, crunch, grape nuts. Oh, munch, munch, munch, grape nuts. Eat a bunch, bunch, grape nuts. There's a molly-rich flavor in your grape nuts flakes. Pah! Yes, yes, yes, peppy. Yes, yes, Miss Smith's house. I can park between those two cars. I'm gonna have to blow the horn. I'm going in and get her. You're not fooling us, Jack. The only reason you're taking Alexis Smith to the camp is so you can get to kiss her. That's not the reason at all. Then how come every time her name is mentioned, your lips pucker up? They do not. Yeah, where is she? And believe me, the soldiers there will be glad to see you. Why? You smoke even. I know the answer to that. Well, the kids getting smart. Say, Alexis... They want her autograph. Besides doing our broadcasts at the camp, we're gonna do an extra show. And that's when you and I will do a love scene from our new picture. You know where I kiss you. Now, wait a minute, Jack. Are you bringing me up there to entertain the soldiers, or you? The soldiers, of course. Well, un-pucker, we've still got 60 miles to go. I'm only rehearsing, kid. Anyway, Alexis, remember we do our program first, then later on we'll do the love scene. You better do the love scene first. You're not getting any younger, you know. Or you keep out of it. After all, I've done love scenes with big stars before. You know, Alexis, I made a picture called George Washington Slept Here, and my leading lady was Anne Sheridan. I know, Jack. Annie told me all about you and your acting. Oh, really? Uh, what, uh, what did she say? Well... Go ahead, tell me. I won't get conceited. I guarantee you won't. Now, Alexis, stop teasing. Tell me, what did Anne Sheridan say? Well, um, Annie said there was no question about your acting ability. Uh-huh. But if there was a question, she was too much of a lady to answer. A lady to answer. I understand, Alexis. Well, look, Jack, I saw you in that picture, and all the time you were making love to Anne, you were looking right into the camera. I was? Yes. I had a feeling your option was hanging on the lens. Well, unfortunately it was. Say, Alexis, let's rehearse the love scene we're gonna do at the camp. I'm going away. Oh, yes. Uh, the one where you leave me and kiss me goodbye, isn't it? Yes. Then I discover I forgot my hat, so I come back to the house. Oh. I get my hat, and I kiss you goodbye again. But, Jack, in that scene, you're only supposed to kiss me goodbye once. Well, I rewrote it a little. Anyway, anyway, I get my hat, and this time, when I kiss you, I completely lose my hat. Then you won't need your hat. You see, Alexis, I've got the scene rewritten, and it's a staining interest. When I go out, I kiss you goodbye. Then you go out and you kiss me goodbye. Then for a change of pace, we both go out and we kiss each other goodbye. But, Jack, instead of all this kissing, why don't we just stay in and play a game of gin rummy? Well, uh, I want a little excitement. So do I. So let's rehearse the scene. All right. Now, this the way we'll do it at the camp. You remember the one. Oh, my darling, I must leave you now. I'm going to Lancaster for a small coke. Just a touch of cherry. Don't leave me, Felix. Felix? Not tonight. Tonight of all nights. This is our anniversary. You can't leave me, Clap Saddle. It's time we've been apart. Don't go, Albatross. Alexis, stop changing my name. When she gets a jerk, she'll stick to it. Leave us alone. There's a magazine on that seat next to you. Pick it up and read it, will you? Where? Oh, Liberty, I haven't seen it this week. Good. Oh, my sweet. Yes, Clearwater. You know that I don't want to go. You're all that I live for. You're the guiding light in everything I do. You're the sunshine that brightens my grab existence. And Mary, if you turn to page 16, there's a story about me. It tells about my career and my home life and how generous I am. What a hit I was in vaudeville and pictures on the radio. And what a great guy I am. Jack, who are you in love with? Me or you? Oh, pardon me, Alexis. Where were we? We just passed my greens. Just about to kiss her, dope. I was? Oh, yes, I remember. Let's go on, Alexis. I must go now. No, I must... I must go now, darling. Kiss me. But tonight I'm thinking of another kind of perfect mating one you meet up with at the breakfast table every morning. That's a whole grain cereal such as molly-rich grape-nuts flakes and milk. Boy, for swell taste, you simply can't beat a big bowl of crisp, toasty-brown grape-nuts flakes and milk, you bet not. And now, dietitian experts explain why, nutritionally speaking, these two are made for each other because each enhances the food value of the other. Grape-nuts flakes are teeming with whole grain nourishment, including iron, niacin, and vitamin B1. Milk supplies more proteins, carbohydrates, and other essentials to complement the food values of the cereal. Together, they make a perfectly balanced dish. So, folks, whether or not you have to manage with last milk than usual, remember this. Your milk will do double nutritional duty when you serve it with delicious whole grain grape-nuts flakes. Thank you, Colonel Gorn. All you boys here at Murroc for another swell day. I also want to thank Alexis Smith, whom you will soon see in the Adventures of Mark Twain. And, folks, before I say good night, please remember the March of Dimes and the Fourth War Loan Drive. It's so important now. Good night. Hot grape-nuts wheat meal. Hooray. What a treat. Delicious, nutritious, and so good to eat. And if you are thrifty and if you are wise, get the giant new package economy size. That's hot grape-nuts wheat meal in the time-saving, money-saving, new, big economy package, 30 full ounces, more cereal for your money.
