 Colgate dental cream to clean your breath while you clean your teeth and help stop tooth decay and Luster cream shampoo for soft glamorous Corressible hair bring you our miss Brooks starring Eve Arden Once again for another comedy episode of our miss Brooks under the direction of our Lewis Well, the season for coals is just about over but our miss Brooks who teaches English at Madison High School Managed to have one that hung on all last week The cold didn't bother me as much as the fact that it put me a full week behind in the pursuit of my favorite extracurricular activity a biology teacher named Philip Boynton But while I was steaming myself with an inhalator Mr. Boynton was being steamed by another female English teacher one Daisy Enright and as far as I'm concerned One Daisy Enright is one too many But by last Friday morning the cold at least was licked and as I sat down to breakfast with my landlady She complimented me on my appearance. You look fine Connie the picture of health You really have the bloom of youth in your cheeks. Oh, thanks, Mrs. Davis I feel a lot better but these rosy cheeks aren't all the bloom of youth. There's just too much starch in the face towels Sorry dear, I'll limp them out a bit. Yes, they could use a little limping Now go ahead and drink your juice dear. We can talk later. What kind of juice is this Mrs. Davis? It's a combination. I take the juice of an orange some lemons and a grapefruit and then I put them all together But this color why is it so red? I guess maybe I put them too hard No, no, I know what it is this morning. I added some tomato juice tomato juice I figured I might as well use it up. There wasn't enough to pour on my farina anyway It's very healthy Connie now go ahead get it down. That isn't the big trick Which reminds me have you planned dinner for tonight? Not yet Connie. Good. I wonder if you do me a big favor I'd like to Connie, but I'm rather short this week myself and it isn't money this time I just thought it'd be nice if you went over to your sister Angela's house for dinner You see mr. Boynton has invited me to a barbecue. He has queer Connie here in our backyard He knows we've got a portable barbecue wagon, but in return for the use of our grounds and equipment He's consented to let me furnish the food also I How very generous of him But I suppose you want me to visit my sister so that you can be alone with mr. Boynton You guessed my secret Mrs. Davis I haven't had one date with him all week long and he's seen Miss Enright three times Well, she's nothing to worry about Connie my goodness no normal man would look at her cross-eyed And believe me that's the best way to look at her But you know Mrs. Davis she's insidious she has a way of clinging to a man like a piece of lint Well, I'm sure mr. Boynton will brush her off when he spent the evening alone with you Connie I'll call Angela on the phone and tell her I'm coming over tonight. Oh, thanks. Mrs. Davis I knew you'd come through for me by the way Yeah, how did you make this date with mr. Boynton last night? He called just after midnight. Oh, isn't that rather late for him? Oh, he apologized for calling at such an hour But he had taken Miss Enright to a movie and after he took her home. He felt awfully restless just couldn't sleep. He said What movie did they see Vaughan Monroe in singing guns? Mr. Boynton said the picture was fine, but every time he dozed off the guns stopped singing and Vaughan Monroe started Well, let's hope tonight is the start of a new mr. Boynton Romantically speaking that is mm-hmm with the two of you alone in the backyard Sitting under the moon who knows what primitive instincts may stir in him perhaps you're right I remember last year about this time We were sitting in the yard and the moon was very full Yes, Connie the stars were out to millions of them and as a soft breeze rippled through my hair Mr. Boynton turned and looked right into my face. And what did he say Connie? He said isn't this a keen night for trapping gophers? Mail you forgot to bring from home daddy, I thought you might want to read it before school starts Thank you Harriet just put it on my desk right behind the little neon sign that says ours good conklin principle Okay, oh daddy before I forget how about inviting miss Brooks over for dinner tonight What me invite miss Brooks to our home for dinner? Yes, daddy. I think it would be sweet After all she hasn't been too well during the past week and you've been rather severe with her I've been severe with her Do you realize that in the past week she has twice dropped a typewriter on my left foot? Broken my glasses and spilled ink all over my newest tie But those were all accidents daddy by inviting her over it would show that you forgave her Besides mother says we owe miss Brooks a dinner since last Thanksgiving. That's nothing to be thankful for Mother's making codfish balls tonight and I thought codfish balls Again I've asked ball to Denton to come but mother always makes plenty so just a minute Harriet You say we owe miss Brooks a dinner. That's right Well, this might be the perfect night to get it over with between the codfish balls and that lame brain dunce walter dentin It's a wasted night anyhow Yes, Harriet. I'll invite you on miss Brooks to dinner. Thanks daddy, but I wish you didn't feel that way Don't mention his name again Now tell me has miss Brooks arrived at school yet. That's a timely question daddy. She's just coming up the walk I can see her through your window. Good. Good. Now you run along child. I'll attend to everything. All right daddy See you during lunch period Now let's see I have to meet miss Brooks in the corridor accidentally don't want her to think i'm running after her She should be coming in the front door about now That's approximately eight paces to my door one two three four five six seven now Good morning miss Brooks Countlin forgive me for screaming. I I thought you were leaping at my throat What an odd notion Yes, well, let's not dwell on it Will you step into my office for a moment, please? Yes, sir Now sit down miss Brooks as you know, I'm not much given to fraternization with faculty members However, my daughter Harriet and my dear wife have put the heat on me to see they've suggested That I invite you over for dinner tonight. Oh, how charming, but I'm afraid I couldn't make it tonight, mr Countlin. We're having cutfish balls. That isn't my reason for refusing But I've planned a barbecue for tonight. This May weather is so lovely a barbecue What are you going to barbecue? Ms. Enright? I mean Ribs probably Barbecued spare ribs with plenty of savory hot sauce and potato salad and those wonderful juicy frankfurters smeared with mustard And sweet corn dripping with butter and salt And homemade biscuit loaded with honey and a tossed green salad Yes, sir. Now if you'll excuse me, mr. Conklin, where are you going to the infirmary? I've made a pig of myself It was very nice of you to ask me over mr. Conklin, but if it's all the same to you may I have a rain check Indeed you may miss Brooks. I shall invite you to my outdoor barbecue the very next time it rains Excuse me, mr. Boyden, but I'd like to talk to you for a moment before your first class Oh, come in miss Brooks. I was just grooming one of my guinea pigs had to cut his nails and comb his hair Why don't you just let his nails grow then he could comb his own hair I just stopped in to confirm our date for tonight. The backyard is all ours Tonight don't you mean tomorrow night miss Brooks? Well, no when you spoke to me on the phone last night You said tomorrow night, which means tonight Oh, but I've got an tentative appointment with miss enright for tonight You see it was after midnight when I called you last night and I was thinking of it as being today So when I said tomorrow night, I meant tomorrow night from today not tonight Put a zither behind that and you could open at Grumman's Chinese Look mr. Boyden, just between you and me and miss enright Don't you think you've been seeing enough of the lamppost lately? I mean You know what I mean Well, if you mean I've been seeing miss enright too much It hasn't been my idea at all It started when you and I had a date last Tuesday night Miss enright came to me monday and told me I might as well forget about it She said she had an idea. You were going to catch a cold She had an idea. I was going to catch a cold She mentioned something about transferring a student to your class who had a very bad cold How do you like that germ warfare? Well, you just have to postpone miss enright, I'm afraid I've made all arrangements to hold our barbecue tonight Well, it isn't the gentlemanly thing to do, but if you insist I'll put her off. I insist shove her off What time can I expect you mr. Boyden? Well, it doesn't do to start too early. That is to say it's more fun when it's dark out. Now you're talking The fire looks so much prettier at night. I love cooking out of doors. I used to be a boy scout, you know What do you mean used to be? I You're right. You're right at that. I'm still a scout master, but as I was saying once I get my fire started That that'll be the day Sorry, mr. Boyden, please continue I cook my ribs first then I Then I cook my frankfurters and after eating After eating I just like to sit around in the moonlight with something in my arms I really care for oh you're cooking with more than charcoal Uh, but what may I ask is there's something in your arms that you really care for by my ukulele, of course Of course the better to slug the gophers with my dear Starring eve arden will continue in just a moment, but first here is verne smith now Tests published in authoritative dental literature show that when teeth are brushed right after eating Kohlgate dental cream stops tooth decay best two years research at five leading universities Hundreds of case histories shows that when used as directed kohlgate dental cream stops tooth decay best Yes exhaustive tests show the kohlgate way best to prevent decay Better than any other home method of oral hygiene known today Based on both clinical and x-ray examinations The kohlgate way stopped more decay for more people than ever before reported in all denifers history Even more important. There were no new cavities Whatever for more than one out of three who used kohlgate dental cream as directed Think of it not even one new cavity in two full years No other denifers paste or powder Ammoniated or not No other denifers has proof of such results The best results ever reported for a denifers of any type So always use kohlgates to clean your breath while you clean your teeth And remember when you follow the kohlgate way kohlgate dental cream stops tooth decay best So when lunch period arrived mr. Boynton had to stay in his lab and groom some more guinea pigs So I headed for the school cafeteria by myself. It was pretty crowded when I got there But fortunately walter dentin had saved a place for me the corner table. I set my tray on it and sat down There we are very nice of you to keep this place for me walter glad to have encouraged your pleasure I count the day well spent during which by some slight active thoughtfulness, thanks very much Yes, in fact my cup of joy is running over Walter quick get a napkin. Oh, what happened? Your cup of joy was joined by my cup of soup Luckily I got out of the way in time. Oh here. I'll mop up the table Oh, I'm sorry miss brooks. I guess the spring weather is making me more poetic than usual Now besides my romantic affairs have taken a rather surprising turn Good for you walter now if you'll excuse me. I'd like to eat what's left of this soup Now go right ahead miss brooks, but while you do I've got a problem to thrash out I simply cannot understand mr. Conklin give that boy a brand new Hudson He's an enigma miss brooks you take the night before last for instance I was sitting on the porch of his house with his daughter Harriet about 10 o'clock He came out for a smoke and caught me holding your hand. What did he do? All I can say is I wish I'd been holding his foot instead of her hand Yeah, he almost kicked me down the porch steps almost fortunately. I dove over the side But today Harriet invited me over for dinner. Well, that's no problem. Take your diving helmet and go You know, I never could understand mr. Conklin's antipathy towards me But today he didn't seem so bad In fact, when I met him in the hall and told him I was having dinner at his home He was practically civil to me and I Oh, but here I am babbling about me and I haven't even asked about your recent ailment Are you all over your cold? Yes, walter. I am. Oh good colds can lead into dangerous things Oh, I know laryngitis bronchial trouble miss enright Oh, I get it while you were sick. She had a couple of dates with mr. Boynton, huh? She had three, but who counts Miss enright's a very fine english teacher and as a fellow faculty member she's entitled to go out with whomever she pleases It's none of my business until she goes from english to biology now walter I don't blame you for getting annoyed miss brooks miss enright's pretty corny when away she flirts Well now that you mentioned it. I can only say she's about as square as they come The device she employed yesterday proves that what device when she saw mr. Boynton leaving school she dropped her handkerchief No kidding, but why should that get you so sore miss brooks? It landed right on top of mine I'm saying Let's finish lunch walter if it wasn't for mr. Boynton I guess you and miss enright would get along a lot better. She really likes you a lot I can tell by the way she talks about you why only this morning. She said something very complimentary about your hair Miss enright did yes, ma'am. She said you've got the loveliest blonde hair. She ever saw on a brunette She did yeah, and then she said her hair was absolutely natural that's very true walter. It's one of the most natural wings i've ever seen I'm sorry if I sound bitter, but I guess i'll snap out of it after tonight Oh, you got a date with mr. Boynton. Yes walter. We're having a barbecue in my backyard You know spare ribs and romans moonlight and mustard. Oh, it sounds dynamic Uh-oh, look who's headed this way. Oh, the cafeteria certainly is packed today. Oh, hello walter Hi miss enright. Do you mind if I sit here with you and your mother? Oh, it's you miss brooks Forgive me for taking you for walter's mother darling. My eyes must be playing tricks on me I guess it's still too light out for you Pull up a sturdy chair and sit down miss enright. Thanks. You're a dear. You're an antelope, but sit down Oh dear, I forgot to bring my coffee long. Uh, would you go get me a cup walter? Okay, miss enright. How do you want cream and sugar? No just sugar, please. Never mind that either walter I've got some lumps for her right here I took some extra cubes miss enright. Oh, how thoughtful, but then you always were considerate of others Take this past week for example. You didn't interfere at all while mr. Boynton was dating me Nobody knows better than you do miss enright that I was home every night with the cold Well, that shouldn't depress you dear. At least it proves there's something you can catch A bit guilty about taking advantage of your indisposition, but after all you were cooped up in that stuffy Little room of yours and mr. Boynton does love the great outdoors and I am the outdoor type I'll say you are nobody ever invites you in Look miss enright, my cold is better now And I think it only fair to warn you that mr. Boynton and I are going to take up our relationship exactly where we left it Oh poor mr. Boynton and to think for five whole days. He hasn't had to wear his track shoes Tell me dear has he granted you an evening in the foreseeable future in the very foreseeable future miss enright In fact before I leave you to your black coffee and thoughts to match There's something I think you should know Mr. Boynton's coming to a barbecue tonight in my backyard. Oh, how wonderful for him He'll need all the fresh air he can get That is he does seem to enjoy himself in the open spaces take the evenings he spends in my backyard We dine under the stars then mr. Boynton strums his ukulele and I sit in the hammock and sing In the hammock that's very unnatural unnatural when you sing you should be sitting on a fence Gosh, I thought school had never end today. I want me to take you home We might as well spend the afternoon there if we're gonna have dinner with your folks I'm afraid that's all off walter. There isn't anything to eat at our house What it seems daddy went home for lunch and mother asked him to fix the vacuum cleaner Well, he fixed it. All right only he did it in the kitchen. I don't quite follow you my sweet Mother had everything for dinner laid out on top of the stove and before daddy knew it was fixed The vacuum sucked up all the codfish balls Are you sure that was an accident? Who can tell daddy never was very fond of codfish That mother was so upset. She just picked up and went over to grandmothers for the rest of the day We're on our own as far as dinner's concerned. Gee, that's too bad harry. I Wait a minute. If I can't be your guest tonight, how would you like to be mine? Walder, that sounds just like a proposal. What does oh, how would you like to be mine? No, I meant how would you like to be mine for dinner? But you understand my guest for dinner I meant But flodder you can't afford to take me to a restaurant. Oh, you're very right lovely one But I won't have to take you to a restaurant. I'll take you to a dandy free outdoor barbecue Where at miss brooks place she's having mr. Boynton over for dinner But won't they want to be alone? Well, she'll want to be alone But you know how bashful he is as soon as he's in the presence of a member of the opposite sex He just dummies up now. We'll be doing miss brooks a favor to go Well, don't you see Harriet will savor hours of groundwork trying to warm him up, but we haven't been invited What's that got to do with anything? Look, we'll only stay until we've got the ball rolling We'll leave as soon as mr. Boynton is nice and relaxed and we're full of ribs in frankfurters Well, I've got the charcoal all laid out and burning I set the barbecue up right under that big tree Oh, it's a nice night for a barbecue. Isn't it? It's a nice night for anything You know miss brooks Seeing you here so close with The shadows playing softly about your face the moon shining on your hair as the firelight dances in your eyes You'd be amazed at the thought that occurs to me No, I wouldn't. Where are the gopher traps? Now you're teasing me miss brooks. I haven't seen you all week and I want you to know that That yes, mr. Boynton That I brought along a quart of oil with me That seems like enough It's a special brand for making the charcoal burn faster. Well, what will they think of next? But uh before the oil mr. Boynton you were saying I was saying that that it's nice to be alone here. Just you and I Oh, it certainly is mr. Boynton and we're really alone here There's no way in or out of this yard except through that big wooden door in the fence Which wooden door? That one Excuse me a minute mr. Boynton. No, okay. I'll go put some ribs and franks on the grill I can't imagine who this is Hi miss brooks. It's me. That's obvious So what do you want walter? I thought you were dining with the conglins.
