 The House of Squib presents Academy of War. Every week, Squib brings you Hollywood's finest. The great picture plays the great actors and actresses, techniques and skills chosen from the honor roll of those who have won or been nominated for, the famous Golden Oscar of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Science. And now, ER Squib and Sons, manufacturing chemists to the medical profession since 1858, bring you one of the most delightful fantasies ever presented on the screen. Walt Disney's famous Pinocchio, the picture of which, for best original musical score and best song of the year, won the 1940 Academy of War. This is the story of a little boy who was carved out of wood. His name was Pinocchio. Because he was a very good little boy, when all was said and done, he became a real little boy like you and lived happily ever after. If he hadn't been a good little boy in the end and stopped disobeying those who loved him, he might have ended up just a pile of shavings or even a toothpick. So you'd better be good and listen to the story of Pinocchio. There was a kind old man named Gepetto, who made Pinocchio out of the very finest wood. But he loved him so much, he hoped and hoped Little Pinocchio might be real and be a son to him in his old age. Oh, look at him. He almost looks alive. Wouldn't it be nice if he was a real boy? Oh well, come on, we go to sleep. But first I must open the window. Oh, how beautiful the wishing star. Starlight, star bright. First star I see tonight. I wish I may. I wish I might have the wish I make tonight. When you wish upon a- I'm Gemini Cricket. I'm wishing with old man Gepetto. I want Pinocchio to be a real little boy too. And just wait. You'll see. I come from the wishing star. Gee whiz, you must have a rocket ship or a jet job. Good Gepetto, you have done so much. Given so much happiness to others. You deserve to have your wish come true. Gepetto is asleep. Snoring. I know, Little Cricket. Now get out of my way. Where is Pinocchio? Right there. The poor little wooden head. Little puppet made of pine. Wake. The gift of life is thine. Wow. It works. It works. I can move. I can talk. I can walk. Yes, Pinocchio. I have given you life. Why? Because tonight Gepetto wished for a real boy. Am I a real boy? No, Pinocchio. Making Gepetto's wish come true will be entirely up to you. Prove yourself brave, truthful, unselfish. And someday you will be a real boy. Your conscience will tell you. But what is a conscience? I know. I know. A conscience? Is that stills? Gideon listened to the merry laughter of the little innocent children winding their way to school. Thirsty little minds running to the fountain of knowledge. What's this? Gee whiz. There was Honest John the Fox and Gideon the Cat. And all of a sudden they saw Pinocchio. Lookie there. A little wooden boy. Amazing. A live puppet without strings. Goodness, Gideon. A thing like that ought to be worth a fortune. Why Stromboli, of course. He has a puppet show. Why that old faker would pay. Quick, head off the little wooden boy. We'll be on Easy Street. Well, little wooden boy, you're quite a scholar. I see a man of letters. Give me my book, sir. I'm going to school. Then you haven't heard of the Easy Road to Success? No, sir. I'm speaking, my boy, of the theatre. Bright lights, music, applause and fame. Fame? Yes, and with that personality, that profile, that physique, why... But I'm going... Straight to the top, where I can see your name in lights. Lights six feet high. Um, what is your name? Pinocchio. Pinocchio. P-I-N-U-O-P-I... We're wasting precious time. Come on to the theatre. An actor's life is gay. It's great to be a celebrity. An actor's life for me. Why, that's Pinocchio. Gee whiz, a fine conscience I turned out to be late the first day. Hey, where you taking little Pinocchio? You can't do that. Stop, stop, stop. Hey, you, the pop. Hey, Pinocchio. What was that? Me. What? That was my conscience, Jiminy Cricket. Why, who? Why, my boy, you must be seeing things. I'll just calm down, calm down. There's nothing to be afraid of. Hey, Pinocchio. Oh, Jiminy, I'm going to be an actor. You can't do that. You must go to school. Now, when they come back, you tell them you're sorry, but you've got to go to school. Here, here, little boy. You must not lag behind. We're off to the theatre. Tell them, Pinoc. Goodbye, Jiminy. Goodbye. Hey, not goodbye, Pinocchio. I diddle-dee-dee, I'm in shame. I diddle-dee-dee. Oh, what'll I do? I'll run and tell his father. No, no, no, that would be snitching. I'll go after him myself. Dear the gentlemen, to conclude the performance of this great show, Stromboli, the master of showmen, that's a me after a lot all day, by special permission of the management, that's a me too, question alone, she is presenting a software thinger to you. Some thing you will absolutely refuse to believe, introducing the only American actor who can sing and dance, absolutely without the aid of strings. I hope so. I'm permitted to guard thee. The one and only Pinocchio. Trippin' fall down. Go ahead and make a fool out of yourself. Then maybe you'll listen to your conscience. He won't need me anymore. What is there not to want, the weather conscience anyway? You will push you in the public's eye. Your face you'll be on everybody's tongue. Oh, sure. In this cage for you. Yes, yes, to me you are belonging. We will tour the world, Paris, London, Monaco, or Constantinople. No. As we start tonight, you will make me lots of money. And when you're going to old, you will make good firewood. A little wooden gold mine. Ha-ha. Yee-dee-ya. If he was made, artists have to draw 35 or more separate pictures to make one animated screen character smile. That may seem like a lot of work just for a smile, and yet there is another place where 223 scientific tests are made in the interest of a brighter smile, a happier mouth. That place is the Squibb Laboratories, where these 223 separate tests are made to ensure the safety and effectiveness of Squibb dental cream. And when you use Squibb dental cream, you will appreciate that extra care. You'll taste, feel, and see the refreshing difference.

With a touch that's feather soft and safe, the special polishing agent in Squibb dental cream reveals all the natural sparkle of your smile. So for home dental care that's more effective, more refreshing, switch to Squibb dental cream. Taste, feel, and see the refreshing difference. In just a moment we will present the second part of Pinocchio, but first we wish to thank Walt Disney for making this picture available. Walt Disney is also the producer of the Technicolor production, Make Mine Music. And now the House of Squibb presents part two of Walt Disney's Academy Award-winning picture, Pinocchio. Pinocchio, Pinocchio, it's me, your old friend, Jiminy Cricket, remember? Oh, Jiminy, gee, I'm glad to see you. What's happened? What did Stromboli do to you? Oh, he was mad. He said he was going to push my face in everybody's eye and it's going to chop me into fireworks. Yes, looks pretty hopeless. It'll take a miracle to get you out of that cage. Gee. Hey, there's that star again, that lady. The fairy. What did she say? What did I tell her? You might tell her the truth. Why Pinocchio? Hello? Pinocchio, why didn't you go to school? Go ahead, tell her. I was going to school till I met somebody. Met somebody? Yeah, two big monsters with big green eyes. Weren't you afraid? Oh, she's boring a hole in the side of the wagon. You see, Pinocchio, a lie keeps growing and growing until it is as plain as the nose on your face. She's right, Pinocchio. You'd better come clean. Please, your honor. I mean, Miss Blue Fairy, give him another chance. For my sake, will you? I'll forgive you just this once. But remember, a boy who won't be good might just as well be made of wood. Will it be good? Both ways. Very well. But this is the last time I can help you. Let's get out of here before something else happens. Come on, Pinocchio. He's home at last. He's been slept in. There's dust everywhere. There's a piece of paper, a note. Oh, it's a message. What does it say? Why, it says here he went looking for you and he was swallowed by a whale. Swallowed by a whale? A whale named Monstro. But, Pinocchio, are you crazy? Don't you realize he's in a whale? I gotta go to him. But this whale is Monstro. He swallows whole ships alive. I don't care. I may be live bait down there, but I'm your conscience and I'm going with you. I'm going to hold this rock so it will take me all the way down to the bottom of the sea. Okay. I'll hold my nose. Let's go. Be like this. One of us has happened to my poor little Pinocchio. He was such a good little boy. And now the whale hasn't eaten anything for two days. And if he doesn't eat, I will starve. Ahoy, bellow. Move over. You've come home soaking wet. You mustn't catch cold. The whale only opens his mouth when he's eating. And then everything comes out and nothing goes in. So what's the idea? We're getting out of here. He died to save you, Father. It's the Blue Fairy from the Wishing Star. Prove yourself brave, truthful, and unselfish. And someday you will be a real boy. Awake, Pinocchio. Awake. Father, Jiminy Cricket, what you crying for? Because, because you are dead, Pinocchio. No. Yes, you are. Now lie down. As you see. Few dramatic scenes compare with certain steps in the development of today's powerful new weapons against disease. For example, in the Great Squibb Laboratories, every lot of penicillin has to demonstrate its potency in many exacting tests. One of them on living bacteria. Tiny cylinders containing penicillin solution are placed in a culture medium in which the bacteria are already thriving. Seeping into the culture, the penicillin checks bacterial growth in a circle around each cylinder. In each case, the size of the circle gives an exact indication of the strength of the penicillin solution. It is by means of such scientific test as this that the House of Squibb helps to safeguard your health. Not only in the production of life-saving drugs like penicillin, but in the making of all Squibb health essentials. That is why the name Squibb, on your doctor's prescription, or on simple home necessities for your everyday use, is your guarantee of quality. Make sure you get Squibb quality. Ask for Squibb, a name you can trust. Next Wednesday, another great picture. The House of Squibb will present Academy Award starring Joseph Cotton in Shadow of a Doubt. This is Hugh Brundage bidding you good night until next Wednesday at the same time. When you're invited to listen again to Academy Award, presented by the House of Squibb, a name you can trust.
