H Cabpy. take me to the most exclusive hotel in town. I guess I'd better register. S0 you re who the manager called a spit-fired red-head? If I were you, I'd get more ,than just an office job, working in a swankie joint like this. By the way, Betty, wherehs that bird-brain sister of yours? Yes, I remember you had a lot, but only one with bu'd-brains--Joan. Why that dame would even go around looking for a girl to marry her boyfrlelld- Oh, so she's a comedian ontelevision? She always was the wittiest one in the Blankenship family. Hey Betty. call my home in New York and tell my chauffeur to drive down and pick me up. I'm going down to the beach to take a dip. Where's all that whistling coming from? No wonder the wolves are howling! There's Dayneze Stone on the beach and it must be her daughter with her. Looks just like Day used to look--at any rate, I see she's just won the title of Miss America. A reporter asked her what she was going to do now. She said, marry a mining engineer, like my I110fh8r- Of course. we all know who Dayneze married--our basket-ball captain of 1950. The wolves are evidently going in for warmer weather these days. Well, I might as well go back to the hotel. You don't have to run over me! Well, 116110 'Thel'- No wonder that thing acted like it didn't have any brakes. Hey, don't you know better than to let her drive that new Cadaliac around. You can't help it! Why? She's your wife! Thelma Faye Ellis, you mean to say you married an army colonel? If I remember correctly, you had more brains in one side of your head than I had in both of mine, but now you've got the empty change purse and I've got the stuffed billfold. That just goes to show you what people with brains will do. You had better get going, the light turned green. I wonder what I'll do tonight? I believe I'll go down to the Hotshot C1ub and see if I can drum up a bachelor. Well, if it isn't our one and only red head---Jack Jackson! Who do you think you're imitating, running around in tie and 'tails'? So you own the place. I guess you're making barrels of dough. You always were good at chiziling people. Come over and talk to me. My table is up front. Bang! Bang! Oh, the cops are raiding the joint! Oh, I'm shot! Wh--Where am I? In the hospital! Call the undertaker, I'm dying! Jack Phipps, what are you doing here? You're the cop that shot me! Oh no! Why for two cents I'd beat your brains out, that is, if you have any. Nurse, Nurse, how am I? Can I get out in a couple of hours? Juanita Collins! Imagine meeting you here--and a top-notch nurse, too. Uh-oh, with Jack around, that's easy! There's someone at the door. Well, if it isn't 'Sad Sack'--Bob Thompson! How did you wind up in a hospital? They said I called an undertaker? Idon't remember it. I musth've been out of my head and I practically stay that way. Anyhow, what's that got to do with you? You own a funeral agency! Oh, I get it. Jack 'bangs' 'em up, Juanita finished them up, and Bob puts 'em under. My what a set-up! Say, how long will it take you all to get rich like this? A few more old classmates and we could have a real get- together. Hey Desk Clerk! How much do I owe you? Ida Sanson! How come you down South? You're Secretary to Dr. Fleepot and Dr. Higginbottom! Why the sudden change that started you working? It must be the Doc's looks. The police told me to report to the city hall at one o'c1ock. So I guess I'd better get going. Oh, my gosh, I'd hate to spend even one night in this dingy place. Ralph Tramell Of all places to meet anybody! Come on and go with me I've got to go and see the pop-eyes old judge. You know them, they're always old and dried up. Now if he were tall, dark, and handsome, I'd practically live in jail. What are you laughing about? You're the judge? Oh brother! Now I will get life! You're going to let me off just like that? After the way I talked about judges! You don't have to tell me but once that I'm free. Boy, am I glad to get out of there. Another five minutes and I would've talked myself behind bars. Maid, you may prepare to leave. We'll take a few days to tour the country between here and New York. I have a few friends in W. Va. I'd like to see. Chauffeur, turn the radio on, please. 'shot-gun Boogie, all I need is one shot, I'll be back little girl when your pappy runs out of shells.' Well, folks, I don't think that girls needs an introduction. That was one of the Gilbert Creek Clines--the one and only 'Ilean.' Turn it off. So Ilean is singing over W.S.L.M. Nashville, Tennessee, on the Grand Ole Opera. My what a big motor court! Let's spend the night here. 'Hello Phyllis.' Who's that talking? If it isn't the class's most bashful 'bo', Don Lowe. What are you doing in South Carolina? Squeezing the sweetness out of the oranges or the girls. You own this Motel? It sure is a nice place. It's getting kinda late, Ithink I'll hit the sack. So we're coming to the city of Gilbert? Let's drive down main street. Look what a large nursery! Stop! I know that lady in the yard. Hi Romaine! What are you doing? Watching Beverly's kids! Where is Beverly now? Going to business school! That girl sure has determination. She always said she'd go to business School even if she was
