Speaker 1 (00:00):
Olgate dental cream to clean your breath while you clean
your teeth and help stop tooth decay.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
And Bluster Cream shampoo for saft, glamorous, caressible hair.
Speaker 3 (00:09):
Bring you Our Miss Brooks starring Eve.
Speaker 4 (00:11):
Arden, time once again for another comedy episode of Our
Miss Brooks under the direction of al Lewis Welt. Madison
High School instituted a course in automobile driving a short
time ago, and our Miss Brooks, who teaches English there.
Speaker 3 (00:32):
Was put in charge.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
She's had over a week to get used to her
additional duties, but she still isn't very happy about them,
and why.
Speaker 5 (00:40):
Should I be. Most of the students who enroll in
the course take one lesson and then drive as if
they're on the Indianapolis Speedway. As a teacher, I've never
minded marking my pupils, but I have a definite aversion
to having them mark me. Last Thursday, at breakfast, my
Landlady offered a few consoling remarks.
Speaker 6 (01:01):
I know it's a lot of additional work, Connie, but
think of the satisfaction involved, not just to you, but
to the entire profession.
Speaker 5 (01:10):
You mean the medical profession, know.
Speaker 6 (01:14):
The teaching profession. Look what you're doing to help the
traffic problem.
Speaker 5 (01:19):
Well, I have these the traffic problem a bit. Since
I started teaching. There are at least ten fewer cars
on the road.
Speaker 6 (01:27):
It's not only traffic, Connie. Your students learn critesy to pedestrians.
Speaker 5 (01:33):
To oh you're right about that, Missus Davis. That's one
thing I absolutely insist on. Each of my pupils must
take a half hour off to visit the hospital. His
particular pedestrian is in you general. You can eat if
you like, Connie.
Speaker 6 (01:50):
But you're doing a fine service and you should enjoy
doing it.
Speaker 5 (01:54):
I wonder how you'd enjoy teaching a student like Stretched Snodgrass.
Missus Davis.
Speaker 6 (02:00):
It's difficult for Stretch to drive a car.
Speaker 5 (02:02):
It's difficult for Stretch to spell car. He almost got
me into a real jam the other day. We got
into some heavy traffic and I asked him to let
me have the wheel.
Speaker 6 (02:15):
How did that get you into a jam?
Speaker 5 (02:17):
He took it off and handed it to Oh, well,
I'll get used to it. I suppose, of course you will.
Speaker 6 (02:28):
Now you finished eating, Connie, I've got some chores to
do out in the kitchen. Want any more of anything.
Speaker 5 (02:34):
No, thanks, There are still some slices of French toast
left over. I hate to see them wasted. That's Walter Denon.
They won't be wasted, then, Walter, the latch is off.
Miss Brooks, we who.
Speaker 7 (02:49):
Are about to die, salute you've acknowledged.
Speaker 5 (02:54):
What do you want with your French toast? Sugar or jam?
Speaker 8 (02:57):
Oh didn't you hear me? Miss Brooks?
Speaker 5 (02:59):
Hi, I'm the bearer of extremely tragic tidings. I'm sure
they can wait until you've had a little breakfast. Now
sit down, all right?
Speaker 8 (03:07):
But I had one breakfast at home.
Speaker 7 (03:08):
Then I just stopped by Harriet Conchlin's house and she
insisted I have another breakfast with her.
Speaker 5 (03:14):
Oh I see, so.
Speaker 8 (03:15):
I'll just eat a couple of these plane.
Speaker 3 (03:19):
There you are, Walter.
Speaker 5 (03:20):
Now, don't try to talk while you're eating. I don't
want to hear a word out of you until you're
all finished.
Speaker 8 (03:25):
So be it. It's like this, miss Brooks.
Speaker 7 (03:34):
As you know, Miss Brooks, I am the manager of
the Madison High School Orchestra. And as you also know,
this is the weekend of the big music festival at
Oakhurst that were in the high school. Bands from all
over the state compete for a silver cup.
Speaker 5 (03:47):
Go on now.
Speaker 7 (03:48):
I'm well aware of the fact that you have your
own problems, Miss Brooks, but you've always been interested in
mine in the past, and it is my fond hope
that you continue to be interested in them, especially this one.
Speaker 8 (04:01):
Are you interested, miss Brooks.
Speaker 5 (04:03):
I'm so interested it frightens me. Please get to the
point a little more rapidly, Walter.
Speaker 7 (04:10):
Okay, The point is our beloved principle, old marblehead Conklin,
I mean, mister Conklin. He insists on going on his
trip in playing his tuba with the band.
Speaker 5 (04:21):
Mister Conklan wants to play with the band.
Speaker 8 (04:23):
Yes, ma'am. I've stood for many things from that man,
but his.
Speaker 5 (04:27):
Tuba is just too much for me to swallow, especially
after three breakfasts over. I didn't think faculty members were
eligible to play in the band.
Speaker 8 (04:39):
Well or not, but he thinks he can get by
on a technicality.
Speaker 7 (04:42):
You see, Jason Brooke, the principle of Clay City High
got special permission last year to do a violin solo
with their band, and mister Conklin feels it. Anything mister
Brooke can do with his violin, he can do with
his tuba.
Speaker 5 (04:57):
I'd like to hear him try flight of the bumblebee.
Speaker 8 (05:01):
Snow laughing manner, Miss Brooks.
Speaker 7 (05:03):
He sneaked in the bond practice so often lately that
they're practically ruined unless they get the practice by themselves
in Oakhurst. Are chances for winning or sub nil?
Speaker 5 (05:13):
That's about as poor as chances can get. Is the
band going up to Oakhurst after school today?
Speaker 7 (05:19):
Yes, ma'am, and you've got to see that they go
without mister Conklin and his thirty nine pounds of stale plumbing.
But why me, you, Walter, Because someone very near and
dear to your heart has the interest of the band,
and very near and dear to his heart, you mean
none other.
Speaker 5 (05:41):
When is mister Boynton so interested in music?
Speaker 7 (05:43):
Well, since he bet mister de Witt, my history teacher,
that Madison would win the band contest.
Speaker 5 (05:48):
But mister Boynton doesn't bet. He's opposed to gambling. He
won't take a chance on anything. More's the pity.
Speaker 8 (05:57):
He didn't get money, just a new hat.
Speaker 5 (06:00):
Mister Boyton doesn't wear hats, Walter.
Speaker 8 (06:02):
The hat isn't for him, it's for you.
Speaker 7 (06:04):
He wants you to have it for Christmas, of course,
I just happened to be eavesdropping at the proper time.
Speaker 8 (06:10):
This is all a big surprise.
Speaker 5 (06:12):
Yes it is, wasn't it. I'd like to see the
band when the contest too, Walter, hat or no hat,
mister Boyden or no, mister Boydan.
Speaker 8 (06:23):
Let's not go overboard.
Speaker 5 (06:24):
But what I'm trying to say, Walter, is this, how
can we keep mister Conklin from playing an oakhurst with
a band.
Speaker 7 (06:30):
There's only one lay, Miss Brooks by sabotaging his tuba.
That's a very hard instrument to replace. After all, tubas
don't go on trees.
Speaker 5 (06:39):
It's a good thing they don't. Isaac Newton had been
hit by a tuba instead of an apple, we wouldn't
have any gravity today. Him, miss Brooks going into Daddy's office. Yes, Harriet,
(07:00):
what kind of a mood is he in?
Speaker 9 (07:02):
Very good for Daddy. He's practicing on his tuba. I
just came out of his office.
Speaker 5 (07:13):
Would that wind behind you? I'll bet you came out
faster than you went in.
Speaker 9 (07:19):
Daddy got a new teacher last week. He's really working
at it this time.
Speaker 5 (07:32):
Who's he taking lessons from? Jack Benny?
Speaker 9 (07:37):
No, ma'am as close as I can recall his teacher's
name is Pandarvis T.
Speaker 8 (07:42):
Marley Bone.
Speaker 5 (07:43):
That's close enough his books.
Speaker 9 (07:49):
I know that Daddy wants to play with our band
in the contest, but confidentially, I don't think he'll help
their chances.
Speaker 8 (07:55):
Anny, So if you can think of any.
Speaker 5 (07:57):
Way, I've been all through this with Walter Denton. Harriet. Now,
if you'll excuse me, I have a very important date,
A date, yes, with thirty nine pounds of stale plumbing.
Speaker 8 (08:08):
Good luck, Miss Brooks.
Speaker 5 (08:09):
Let me know how you come out stick around. You
might have to catch me. I mean, I know you're practicing,
mister Conklin, and I don't like to disturb you.
Speaker 10 (08:21):
I's very considerate, Miss Brooks.
Speaker 5 (08:23):
Good day, but I couldn't help stopping by to wish
you luck with the band contest.
Speaker 10 (08:33):
Well, thank you, Miss Brooks.
Speaker 5 (08:35):
What selection have you chosen for your solo?
Speaker 11 (08:38):
I thought i'd try something a little out of the
ordinary for my particular instrument, the flight of the bumblebee.
Speaker 3 (08:48):
Do you think that would be effective?
Speaker 5 (08:51):
Oh? Yes, sir, that should really knock him deaf a day.
If I keep very quiet, would you mind letting me
stand here and listen to you? Practice. There's time before
my class begins.
Speaker 3 (09:04):
I didn't know.
Speaker 10 (09:04):
You were so interested in music, Miss Bruce.
Speaker 5 (09:07):
Oh, yes, indeed, and the tuba is my favorite.
Speaker 10 (09:10):
Instrument really since when.
Speaker 5 (09:13):
Since I first heard you play one. I'll never forget
that day, mister Conklin. It was about six weeks ago.
I passed by the music room and you were playing
the beautiful Blue Danube.
Speaker 10 (09:24):
But how can you remember so clearly?
Speaker 5 (09:27):
The rest of the band was playing kiss Me Again.
That is, they soon realized their mistake, and you all
played beautifully together. So much so, mister Conklin, that lately
I've been thinking of taking up the tuba again.
Speaker 10 (09:47):
Again.
Speaker 5 (09:48):
Yes, sir, I took several lessons on it when I
was a little girl.
Speaker 11 (09:52):
But isn't a tubur an awfully heavy instrument for a
little girl.
Speaker 5 (09:56):
That's what my mother thought, So I took the lessons
on a piccolo. I never did get anywhere, though, I
guess there just wasn't any incentive. But now that I
have a virtuoso right in the same school, well, would
you give me a few pointers, mister Conklin.
Speaker 3 (10:14):
Well, Miss Brooks, I.
Speaker 5 (10:20):
Have a friend who played the tuba with a philharmonic.
I could ask him. I suppose, but I figure, why
take lead when you can get platinum?
Speaker 3 (10:29):
Oh you're soul right?
Speaker 10 (10:35):
What would you like to know, my dear?
Speaker 5 (10:37):
Well, I'm afraid we'll have to start with the fundamentals.
It's been months since I was a little girl. How
do you hold the tuba? Maestro?
Speaker 10 (10:52):
Here, I'll show you.
Speaker 11 (10:53):
Just take it in your left arm like this, not
quite hold it more as if it were a baby.
Speaker 3 (10:59):
There have you got it?
Speaker 10 (11:01):
Have you got a firm grip on it?
Speaker 5 (11:05):
No, sir, Oh dear, I've ruined your wonderful tuber.
Speaker 10 (11:12):
Let's see it.
Speaker 11 (11:13):
Oh, thank goodness, there's no damage done, none whatsoever.
Speaker 5 (11:18):
I guess I was pressing. Please, mister Conklin, could I
take another crack habit? I mean, would you show me
the proper way to hold it?
Speaker 11 (11:31):
But I've told you, miss Brooks, hold it like you
would a baby like this, Yes, yes.
Speaker 10 (11:36):
Only not so high.
Speaker 11 (11:37):
And you've got to have such a much firm k
calf hole, Miss Brooks. If that's how you'd hold a baby,
it's a good thing you're not a nurse.
Speaker 5 (11:49):
Is your beautiful tuber ruined this time?
Speaker 3 (11:52):
Yes, miss Brooks, it is. There's a big.
Speaker 11 (11:54):
Crack in the bell and the mouthpiece is.
Speaker 3 (11:56):
Jammed into the horn. It'll take a week to repair it.
Speaker 5 (11:59):
Oh, then you won't be able to play in the
contest tomorrow.
Speaker 11 (12:02):
Oh yes, I will. I can borrow a tuber from
a friend of mine, an Oakhurst. Fortunately his instrument is
out of your reach four hundred and fifty miles from here.
Speaker 5 (12:13):
I'm terribly sorry, mister Conklin.
Speaker 12 (12:16):
Darney's short arms.
Speaker 2 (12:27):
Your teeth with concours Colgate Daniel.
Speaker 1 (12:31):
Cream and cleans your breath water toothpaste qual a danger teeth.
Speaker 4 (12:35):
Colgate toothpaste clean your breath, water toothpaste Why aden dir tee?
Speaker 1 (12:41):
Coldgate Devil cream cleans your breath while it cleans your teeth,
and the cold gateway stops tooth decayed best.
Speaker 2 (12:48):
More than two years research showed the cold gateway of
brushing teeth right after eating helps stop more decay for
more people than ever before reported in Jennifer's history.
Speaker 3 (12:59):
Yes, the cold Gateway.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
Stop tooth decay best better than any other home method
of oral hygiene. No other dentifrie ammoniated or not, has
proof of such results.
Speaker 1 (13:10):
And you should know that Colgates, while not mentioned by name,
was the one and only.
Speaker 2 (13:15):
Toothpaste used in the research on tooth decay, recently reported
in Reader's Digest. So always follow the cold Gateway to
clean your breath while you clean your teeth and stop
tooth decay best.
Speaker 3 (13:29):
Rush your teeth cold gates, coldgate.
Speaker 2 (13:33):
Green clean breath, water, toothpaste, water, lean dirt, and the
cold gateway stops tooth decayed best.
Speaker 3 (13:49):
Well.
Speaker 5 (13:50):
By the time I met mister Boynton in the cafeteria
for lunch, I still hadn't thought of a way to
keep mister Conklin from playing with the band. Just before
I went up to get my disease, I told mister
Boynton of my dilemma, hoping he might be able to help.
As always, he paid rapt attention to what I was saying,
then came up with a brilliant suggestion.
Speaker 3 (14:12):
Why not try the cherry prior da Miss Brooks.
Speaker 5 (14:17):
Either you haven't been listening or I've been talking through
my lima beans. All I'm trying to say, mister Boynton,
is that so far mister Conklin is still going to
perpetrate his tuba with the school band.
Speaker 3 (14:30):
There must be something we can do to stop him.
This means quite a bit to me personally.
Speaker 5 (14:34):
Really in what way, mister Boynton.
Speaker 13 (14:37):
Well, I'm I'm unalterably opposed to gambling, as you know,
but in this instance, I did make a small wager
with mister de Witt that our school would win the
Old Curse.
Speaker 3 (14:46):
Contest, a wager you didn't. It's just the price of
a new hat.
Speaker 5 (14:56):
I've got a cute idea. How much does the bet
amount to cash?
Speaker 3 (15:01):
Oh, it isn't important really, just the thought behind it
that counts.
Speaker 5 (15:04):
That's very true. But just the kicks? How much money
has it? Said?
Speaker 3 (15:09):
Well, two dollars.
Speaker 5 (15:19):
Seems like enough. I can surely get a one propeller
job for that. If you get back to mister Conklin.
Walter told me in class that the band was going
up an individual.
Speaker 3 (15:31):
Car, and mister Conklin's going in one of them.
Speaker 5 (15:33):
No, Walters seemed to it that each car is completely
filled with students and instruments. There's just no room for
mister Conklin.
Speaker 13 (15:40):
Well, that's promising. His own car was pretty badly banged
up last week, wasn't it.
Speaker 5 (15:44):
Yes, But it's in the school auto shop and should
be ready today.
Speaker 3 (15:48):
Should it?
Speaker 12 (15:49):
Yes?
Speaker 5 (15:49):
It shouldn't. You might have an idea there, mister Bindon, who's.
Speaker 3 (15:56):
Been working on his commerce brooks.
Speaker 5 (15:58):
Probably someone very competent. But Stretch Snodgrass also spends a
lot of time in the shop.
Speaker 13 (16:04):
And Stretch snut Gas isn't the most brilliant student at school.
Speaker 8 (16:07):
Is he?
Speaker 5 (16:08):
No, Stretch Snodgrass isn't the most brilliant student at school.
Speaker 14 (16:12):
Stretch Snodgrass may not be the most brilliant putting shoreloaded
with charm.
Speaker 5 (16:18):
Well, just the fellow we wanted to see.
Speaker 3 (16:21):
Pull up a chair, Stretch, Yes, take this chair right
here in a minute.
Speaker 5 (16:24):
I ain't yet, please, Stretch, I haven't eaten yet.
Speaker 14 (16:31):
Well, you're on a diet, I ain't. God, I can't
decide what to take today. I'm in a real mental quarry.
Speaker 5 (16:46):
Please, one marble head in school is enough.
Speaker 3 (16:51):
What's the reason for your quandary, Stretch?
Speaker 14 (16:54):
I can't decide whether to take the chicken, ela King,
the lamb Steward, the meat move.
Speaker 5 (16:58):
Why don't you wait till tomorrow and take the corn
beef hash, then you'll get all three?
Speaker 14 (17:05):
Sure that's a swell idea. Wait till tomorrow and get
all three.
Speaker 15 (17:09):
Boy, you sure got plenty of brains up there in
your chromium, my chromium.
Speaker 14 (17:21):
You know your gray matter. I bet you've got some
twisty curves in your Sarah Bellamy.
Speaker 5 (17:32):
Shell. I guess my Sarah's as curvy is the next
fronts Stretch. What we wanted to ask you about was
mister Conklin's car.
Speaker 3 (17:40):
Yes, is it all ready to roll? Sure? What do
you want me to roll it?
Speaker 5 (17:44):
This boy is psychic. Now we've got to be careful
now when mister Conklin lets us use his car for
Madison's new driving class. Last week it got pretty badly
banged up, didn't it straight?
Speaker 3 (17:56):
But now that it's all fixed, it could be used
to give one more lesson, couldn't it.
Speaker 5 (17:59):
And what better pupil could we have to take the
lesson than Stretch. I'll meet you outside in ten minutes.
Speaker 3 (18:06):
I'm not so fast, miss Brooks.
Speaker 8 (18:07):
First I gotta eat.
Speaker 5 (18:08):
Of course you do, and I want you to eat
a nice leisurely meal, Stretch. But there's one thing I
want to tell you before you bolt down a sandwich.
When you go to the garage to get the car,
be sure and back it out carefully.
Speaker 3 (18:21):
Well, kermis Brooks.
Speaker 10 (18:22):
See you in front of the school about ten minutes.
Speaker 5 (18:24):
I'll be sure and back it out of the garage. Stretch.
Speaker 13 (18:27):
Oh well, well, miss Brooks, if you're a meeting stretch
in ten minutes, you better get your dessert.
Speaker 5 (18:32):
Oh there's no hurry, mister Barton. I don't think i'll
have to give Stretch a lesson if he obeys instructions.
What do you mean You heard me tell him to
back the car out of the garage, didn't you. Yes, Well,
after the accident the other day, I backed it in.
Speaker 8 (18:56):
Miss mister Boyton. I don't like to disturb your lunch,
but I got you.
Speaker 5 (19:00):
We're all finished, Walder, What is it?
Speaker 7 (19:02):
Well, I just came from the school garage. Mister Cocklin's
been in to look at his car.
Speaker 3 (19:06):
How did he find it?
Speaker 8 (19:08):
He just scraped the back wall with a pen knife.
Speaker 5 (19:10):
In there it was.
Speaker 7 (19:12):
Street snodgrasted something horrible again.
Speaker 5 (19:15):
Good old Stretch. Now, mister Conklin won't be able to
drive up to the band content.
Speaker 8 (19:20):
That's what you think. He's going on the six pm train.
He'll be there first thing in the morning, but that will.
Speaker 5 (19:26):
Be disastrous if he gets to practice with the band.
Speaker 3 (19:29):
We're sunk, don't I know it, Miss Brooks. We've got
to put our heads together.
Speaker 5 (19:33):
You're right, mister Bardon. Goodbye Walter.
Speaker 7 (19:43):
Please, Miss Brooks, you've got to concentrate on the immediate problem,
your long rain.
Speaker 8 (19:48):
James can wait. I know we just got to keep
mister Conklin from making that train.
Speaker 5 (19:56):
Yes, but how I don't know.
Speaker 7 (19:59):
All I know is he's because he never sleeps very
well on trains. So he's going home right after school
and take a nap, a nap.
Speaker 5 (20:07):
Wait a minute, I think I've got something. Come closer,
mister Barton, Yes, Miss Brooks, still closer like this. Goodbye Walter.
Here's the idea. If he's going to take a nap,
maybe we can set the clocks back in his house
so that when he wakes up, he'll think it's much
earlier and miss the train.
Speaker 3 (20:27):
But is that the only train that occurs today?
Speaker 8 (20:30):
Definitely? Oh, what an idea, Miss Brooks.
Speaker 7 (20:33):
I give one hundred dollars for the right to x
ray the remarkable gray matter in your cranial cavity.
Speaker 5 (20:39):
Why, Walter, what a lovely thing to say about the
Cerehbellamy and my chromium.
Speaker 9 (21:00):
He's asleepwater, Daddy's fast asleep on the couch.
Speaker 8 (21:04):
I don't know how you can sleep with all that
noise he's making.
Speaker 5 (21:08):
I'm sure hate to be your mother. I wouldn't like
that arrangement either.
Speaker 9 (21:13):
Now you set back that clock over there, and I'll
take care of this one on the mantel.
Speaker 8 (21:18):
Okay, let's see it's ten after five. Now I'll just
shut it back an hour. I'll do the same with
this one. Then we'll take care of the clocks upstairs
and in the kitchen. Jack, did you leave the front
door open for miss Brooks?
Speaker 7 (21:30):
And she's coming over to help divert your daddy's attention
until train time.
Speaker 5 (21:34):
It's open water. Now you take the library clock and
i'll go up to the bedroom. This way, stretch. Mister
Conklin's asleep on the couch.
Speaker 1 (21:52):
Good.
Speaker 3 (21:53):
May you want me to set this clock back in hour?
Speaker 8 (21:55):
Right right?
Speaker 5 (21:56):
I'll set this one back on the manvil there.
Speaker 10 (22:05):
Gosh, this sounds like an angry sea lion.
Speaker 3 (22:09):
I think he's waking up.
Speaker 5 (22:10):
I thought it was a car backfiring.
Speaker 14 (22:14):
I better get out of here, mister Conckland.
Speaker 3 (22:16):
We aren't on terms, missus Brooks Snodgrass.
Speaker 5 (22:21):
Oh don't don't get up, mister Conkland. Just lie there
and relax. We'll all pull up chairs and chat.
Speaker 3 (22:26):
With you for a while, chat with me even.
Speaker 10 (22:29):
Why have you snodgrass? There's something I'd like to ask you.
Speaker 14 (22:35):
I thought there might be.
Speaker 10 (22:38):
Did you have anything to do with wrecking my car
this afternoon?
Speaker 14 (22:42):
I'd rather not answer that question, sir.
Speaker 3 (22:45):
Why not?
Speaker 14 (22:46):
Because my parents brought me up not to be no liar. Well,
I gotta go to football practice now, why miss Brooks,
you assume mister Cockland, I guess.
Speaker 10 (22:59):
H just as well he left.
Speaker 11 (23:00):
I shouldn't upset my temperament before the band concert. By
the way, it must be getting toward train time.
Speaker 5 (23:06):
Oh no, you've got loads of time, mister Conklin.
Speaker 10 (23:09):
What time is it?
Speaker 5 (23:10):
It's three fifteen? See by that clock over there.
Speaker 10 (23:14):
Three fifteen. That's peculiar.
Speaker 11 (23:18):
That's peculiar, As I recall, I didn't lie down until
three thirty.
Speaker 5 (23:24):
Well, you know how swiftly time passes when you're sleeping.
Speaker 11 (23:30):
It might pass swiftly, but it doesn't pass backwards.
Speaker 10 (23:35):
Look outside, it's almost dark.
Speaker 5 (23:37):
Oh hadn't you heard there's an eclipse of the sun today.
Speaker 8 (23:44):
I hope you didn't wake up, old marblehead.
Speaker 10 (23:49):
Have a nice nap, pat.
Speaker 3 (23:51):
Thing, Oh quieter, what time do you have, Harriet?
Speaker 8 (23:57):
Oh, you've got plenty of time, daddy. It's only four.
Speaker 11 (24:00):
Fifteen, four fifteen, but miss Brooks says it's three fifteen.
Speaker 5 (24:05):
That's a democracy for you. Everyone's entitled to his own time.
Speaker 8 (24:10):
I'll see here.
Speaker 3 (24:11):
I've got to know just where I stand with that train.
Speaker 5 (24:14):
It's four fifteen, mister Conklin, that's what the time is.
Speaker 11 (24:17):
Actually, Then why did you keep insisting that it was
three fifteen?
Speaker 5 (24:22):
Once I've had a taste of daylight saving I'm a
very hard loser.
Speaker 3 (24:27):
Excuse me, but the door is open, so I don't
come in.
Speaker 11 (24:29):
Come in, boy, and come in.
Speaker 3 (24:31):
Will you please tell me what time it is? Or certainly,
sir it's three. No, it's five point thirty.
Speaker 5 (24:39):
Well that's what makes horse races five.
Speaker 3 (24:43):
Five thirty. Then I have no minute to lose. It's
a half hour drive to the station from here.
Speaker 10 (24:47):
Fortunately, i'm off hatch hand me that police somebody.
Speaker 5 (24:50):
Here you are, mister Conklind.
Speaker 8 (24:53):
Oh, I'm sorry, sir.
Speaker 5 (24:55):
Did it catch your toes?
Speaker 3 (24:58):
Just a few of them, mister. Now I've got to
get out of here, pointing did you drive over here? Yes, sir,
but Mike car too late? For me to call a cab.
Now will you drive me me?
Speaker 13 (25:11):
Well, i'd like to, sir, but I've got a very
important engagement in two minutes.
Speaker 3 (25:15):
It's vital, sir. And now would you like me to
drive you, Miss Brooks.
Speaker 11 (25:20):
I can only answer that query by remarking that there
is nothing more useless than a dead tuba player. If
you don't mind, Boyd, and I'll borrow your card drive
myself to the station.
Speaker 3 (25:33):
Well, I guess that'll be all right, mister Carkle. It's
park right in front of the house. Thank you, goodbye everyone,
goodbye dad.
Speaker 5 (25:40):
I'm mister Johnson.
Speaker 10 (26:08):
There's one more favor I'd like to ask of you, Boynton.
Speaker 3 (26:12):
Yes, mister Coplan, may.
Speaker 5 (26:15):
I borrow the keys?
Speaker 3 (26:21):
Berdy? Here you are, sir, Thank you, mister Boynton.
Speaker 5 (26:29):
How could you do this to us and to yourself?
Mister Conklin will make that train to Oakhurst easily, now.
Speaker 3 (26:36):
No, you won't, miss Brooks.
Speaker 13 (26:37):
The reason I came over here this afternoon was to
borrow a few dollars what for for gasoline.
Speaker 3 (26:44):
In my car had taken another eight blocks.
Speaker 8 (26:46):
Mister Boynton, I could kiss you, so could I back
the way?
Speaker 5 (26:51):

And now once again here is our Miss Brooks.
Speaker 9 (28:25):
Well.
Speaker 5 (28:25):
By dinner time, mister Conklin hadn't returned, and we assumed
that mister Boynton's car had run out of gas and
mister Conklin had run out of time and missed the
train to Oakhres. But the next morning, at breakfast. The
phone rang and missus Davis answered, you know, yes, yes.
Speaker 8 (28:47):
Just a minute, honey, it's for you. It's a message

Speaker 3 (00:09):
Bring you Our Miss Brooks starring Eve.
Speaker 4 (00:11):
Arden, time once again for another comedy episode of Our
Miss Brooks under the direction of al Lewis Welt. Madison
High School instituted a course in automobile driving a short
time ago, and our Miss Brooks, who teaches English there.
Speaker 3 (00:32):
Was put in charge.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
She's had over a week to get used to her
additional duties, but she still isn't very happy about them,
and why.
Speaker 5 (00:40):
Should I be. Most of the students who enroll in
the course take one lesson and then drive as if
they're on the Indianapolis Speedway. As a teacher, I've never
minded marking my pupils, but I have a definite aversion
to having them mark me. Last Thursday, at breakfast, my
Landlady offered a few consoling remarks.
Speaker 6 (01:01):
I know it's a lot of additional work, Connie, but
think of the satisfaction involved, not just to you, but
to the entire profession.
Speaker 5 (01:10):
You mean the medical profession, know.
Speaker 6 (01:14):
The teaching profession. Look what you're doing to help the
traffic problem.
Speaker 5 (01:19):
Well, I have these the traffic problem a bit. Since
I started teaching. There are at least ten fewer cars
on the road.
Speaker 6 (01:27):
It's not only traffic, Connie. Your students learn critesy to pedestrians.
Speaker 5 (01:33):
To oh you're right about that, Missus Davis. That's one
thing I absolutely insist on. Each of my pupils must
take a half hour off to visit the hospital. His
particular pedestrian is in you general. You can eat if
you like, Connie.
Speaker 6 (01:50):
But you're doing a fine service and you should enjoy
doing it.
Speaker 5 (01:54):
I wonder how you'd enjoy teaching a student like Stretched Snodgrass.
Missus Davis.
Speaker 6 (02:00):
It's difficult for Stretch to drive a car.
Speaker 5 (02:02):
It's difficult for Stretch to spell car. He almost got
me into a real jam the other day. We got
into some heavy traffic and I asked him to let
me have the wheel.
Speaker 6 (02:15):
How did that get you into a jam?
Speaker 5 (02:17):
He took it off and handed it to Oh, well,
I'll get used to it. I suppose, of course you will.
Speaker 6 (02:28):
Now you finished eating, Connie, I've got some chores to
do out in the kitchen. Want any more of anything.
Speaker 5 (02:34):
No, thanks, There are still some slices of French toast
left over. I hate to see them wasted. That's Walter Denon.
They won't be wasted, then, Walter, the latch is off.
Miss Brooks, we who.
Speaker 7 (02:49):
Are about to die, salute you've acknowledged.
Speaker 5 (02:54):
What do you want with your French toast? Sugar or jam?
Speaker 8 (02:57):
Oh didn't you hear me? Miss Brooks?
Speaker 5 (02:59):
Hi, I'm the bearer of extremely tragic tidings. I'm sure
they can wait until you've had a little breakfast. Now
sit down, all right?
Speaker 8 (03:07):
But I had one breakfast at home.
Speaker 7 (03:08):
Then I just stopped by Harriet Conchlin's house and she
insisted I have another breakfast with her.
Speaker 5 (03:14):
Oh I see, so.
Speaker 8 (03:15):
I'll just eat a couple of these plane.
Speaker 3 (03:19):
There you are, Walter.
Speaker 5 (03:20):
Now, don't try to talk while you're eating. I don't
want to hear a word out of you until you're
all finished.
Speaker 8 (03:25):
So be it. It's like this, miss Brooks.
Speaker 7 (03:34):
As you know, Miss Brooks, I am the manager of
the Madison High School Orchestra. And as you also know,
this is the weekend of the big music festival at
Oakhurst that were in the high school. Bands from all
over the state compete for a silver cup.
Speaker 5 (03:47):
Go on now.
Speaker 7 (03:48):
I'm well aware of the fact that you have your
own problems, Miss Brooks, but you've always been interested in
mine in the past, and it is my fond hope
that you continue to be interested in them, especially this one.
Speaker 8 (04:01):
Are you interested, miss Brooks.
Speaker 5 (04:03):
I'm so interested it frightens me. Please get to the
point a little more rapidly, Walter.
Speaker 7 (04:10):
Okay, The point is our beloved principle, old marblehead Conklin,
I mean, mister Conklin. He insists on going on his
trip in playing his tuba with the band.
Speaker 5 (04:21):
Mister Conklan wants to play with the band.
Speaker 8 (04:23):
Yes, ma'am. I've stood for many things from that man,
but his.
Speaker 5 (04:27):
Tuba is just too much for me to swallow, especially
after three breakfasts over. I didn't think faculty members were
eligible to play in the band.
Speaker 8 (04:39):
Well or not, but he thinks he can get by
on a technicality.
Speaker 7 (04:42):
You see, Jason Brooke, the principle of Clay City High
got special permission last year to do a violin solo
with their band, and mister Conklin feels it. Anything mister
Brooke can do with his violin, he can do with
his tuba.
Speaker 5 (04:57):
I'd like to hear him try flight of the bumblebee.
Speaker 8 (05:01):
Snow laughing manner, Miss Brooks.
Speaker 7 (05:03):
He sneaked in the bond practice so often lately that
they're practically ruined unless they get the practice by themselves
in Oakhurst. Are chances for winning or sub nil?
Speaker 5 (05:13):
That's about as poor as chances can get. Is the
band going up to Oakhurst after school today?
Speaker 7 (05:19):
Yes, ma'am, and you've got to see that they go
without mister Conklin and his thirty nine pounds of stale plumbing.
But why me, you, Walter, Because someone very near and
dear to your heart has the interest of the band,
and very near and dear to his heart, you mean
none other.
Speaker 5 (05:41):
When is mister Boynton so interested in music?
Speaker 7 (05:43):
Well, since he bet mister de Witt, my history teacher,
that Madison would win the band contest.
Speaker 5 (05:48):
But mister Boynton doesn't bet. He's opposed to gambling. He
won't take a chance on anything. More's the pity.
Speaker 8 (05:57):
He didn't get money, just a new hat.
Speaker 5 (06:00):
Mister Boyton doesn't wear hats, Walter.
Speaker 8 (06:02):
The hat isn't for him, it's for you.
Speaker 7 (06:04):
He wants you to have it for Christmas, of course,
I just happened to be eavesdropping at the proper time.
Speaker 8 (06:10):
This is all a big surprise.
Speaker 5 (06:12):
Yes it is, wasn't it. I'd like to see the
band when the contest too, Walter, hat or no hat,
mister Boyden or no, mister Boydan.
Speaker 8 (06:23):
Let's not go overboard.
Speaker 5 (06:24):
But what I'm trying to say, Walter, is this, how
can we keep mister Conklin from playing an oakhurst with
a band.
Speaker 7 (06:30):
There's only one lay, Miss Brooks by sabotaging his tuba.
That's a very hard instrument to replace. After all, tubas
don't go on trees.
Speaker 5 (06:39):
It's a good thing they don't. Isaac Newton had been
hit by a tuba instead of an apple, we wouldn't
have any gravity today. Him, miss Brooks going into Daddy's office. Yes, Harriet,
(07:00):
what kind of a mood is he in?
Speaker 9 (07:02):
Very good for Daddy. He's practicing on his tuba. I
just came out of his office.
Speaker 5 (07:13):
Would that wind behind you? I'll bet you came out
faster than you went in.
Speaker 9 (07:19):
Daddy got a new teacher last week. He's really working
at it this time.
Speaker 5 (07:32):
Who's he taking lessons from? Jack Benny?
Speaker 9 (07:37):
No, ma'am as close as I can recall his teacher's
name is Pandarvis T.
Speaker 8 (07:42):
Marley Bone.
Speaker 5 (07:43):
That's close enough his books.
Speaker 9 (07:49):
I know that Daddy wants to play with our band
in the contest, but confidentially, I don't think he'll help
their chances.
Speaker 8 (07:55):
Anny, So if you can think of any.
Speaker 5 (07:57):
Way, I've been all through this with Walter Denton. Harriet. Now,
if you'll excuse me, I have a very important date,
A date, yes, with thirty nine pounds of stale plumbing.
Speaker 8 (08:08):
Good luck, Miss Brooks.
Speaker 5 (08:09):
Let me know how you come out stick around. You
might have to catch me. I mean, I know you're practicing,
mister Conklin, and I don't like to disturb you.
Speaker 10 (08:21):
I's very considerate, Miss Brooks.
Speaker 5 (08:23):
Good day, but I couldn't help stopping by to wish
you luck with the band contest.
Speaker 10 (08:33):
Well, thank you, Miss Brooks.
Speaker 5 (08:35):
What selection have you chosen for your solo?
Speaker 11 (08:38):
I thought i'd try something a little out of the
ordinary for my particular instrument, the flight of the bumblebee.
Speaker 3 (08:48):
Do you think that would be effective?
Speaker 5 (08:51):
Oh? Yes, sir, that should really knock him deaf a day.
If I keep very quiet, would you mind letting me
stand here and listen to you? Practice. There's time before
my class begins.
Speaker 3 (09:04):
I didn't know.
Speaker 10 (09:04):
You were so interested in music, Miss Bruce.
Speaker 5 (09:07):
Oh, yes, indeed, and the tuba is my favorite.
Speaker 10 (09:10):
Instrument really since when.
Speaker 5 (09:13):
Since I first heard you play one. I'll never forget
that day, mister Conklin. It was about six weeks ago.
I passed by the music room and you were playing
the beautiful Blue Danube.
Speaker 10 (09:24):
But how can you remember so clearly?
Speaker 5 (09:27):
The rest of the band was playing kiss Me Again.
That is, they soon realized their mistake, and you all
played beautifully together. So much so, mister Conklin, that lately
I've been thinking of taking up the tuba again.
Speaker 10 (09:47):
Again.
Speaker 5 (09:48):
Yes, sir, I took several lessons on it when I
was a little girl.
Speaker 11 (09:52):
But isn't a tubur an awfully heavy instrument for a
little girl.
Speaker 5 (09:56):
That's what my mother thought, So I took the lessons
on a piccolo. I never did get anywhere, though, I
guess there just wasn't any incentive. But now that I
have a virtuoso right in the same school, well, would
you give me a few pointers, mister Conklin.
Speaker 3 (10:14):
Well, Miss Brooks, I.
Speaker 5 (10:20):
Have a friend who played the tuba with a philharmonic.
I could ask him. I suppose, but I figure, why
take lead when you can get platinum?
Speaker 3 (10:29):
Oh you're soul right?
Speaker 10 (10:35):
What would you like to know, my dear?
Speaker 5 (10:37):
Well, I'm afraid we'll have to start with the fundamentals.
It's been months since I was a little girl. How
do you hold the tuba? Maestro?
Speaker 10 (10:52):
Here, I'll show you.
Speaker 11 (10:53):
Just take it in your left arm like this, not
quite hold it more as if it were a baby.
Speaker 3 (10:59):
There have you got it?
Speaker 10 (11:01):
Have you got a firm grip on it?
Speaker 5 (11:05):
No, sir, Oh dear, I've ruined your wonderful tuber.
Speaker 10 (11:12):
Let's see it.
Speaker 11 (11:13):
Oh, thank goodness, there's no damage done, none whatsoever.
Speaker 5 (11:18):
I guess I was pressing. Please, mister Conklin, could I
take another crack habit? I mean, would you show me
the proper way to hold it?
Speaker 11 (11:31):
But I've told you, miss Brooks, hold it like you
would a baby like this, Yes, yes.
Speaker 10 (11:36):
Only not so high.
Speaker 11 (11:37):
And you've got to have such a much firm k
calf hole, Miss Brooks. If that's how you'd hold a baby,
it's a good thing you're not a nurse.
Speaker 5 (11:49):
Is your beautiful tuber ruined this time?
Speaker 3 (11:52):
Yes, miss Brooks, it is. There's a big.
Speaker 11 (11:54):
Crack in the bell and the mouthpiece is.
Speaker 3 (11:56):
Jammed into the horn. It'll take a week to repair it.
Speaker 5 (11:59):
Oh, then you won't be able to play in the
contest tomorrow.
Speaker 11 (12:02):
Oh yes, I will. I can borrow a tuber from
a friend of mine, an Oakhurst. Fortunately his instrument is
out of your reach four hundred and fifty miles from here.
Speaker 5 (12:13):
I'm terribly sorry, mister Conklin.
Speaker 12 (12:16):
Darney's short arms.

Speaker 4 (12:35):
Colgate toothpaste clean your breath, water toothpaste Why aden dir tee?
Speaker 1 (12:41):
Coldgate Devil cream cleans your breath while it cleans your teeth,
and the cold gateway stops tooth decayed best.
Speaker 2 (12:48):
More than two years research showed the cold gateway of
brushing teeth right after eating helps stop more decay for
more people than ever before reported in Jennifer's history.
Speaker 3 (12:59):
Yes, the cold Gateway.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
Stop tooth decay best better than any other home method
of oral hygiene. No other dentifrie ammoniated or not, has
proof of such results.
Speaker 1 (13:10):
And you should know that Colgates, while not mentioned by name,
was the one and only.
Speaker 2 (13:15):
Toothpaste used in the research on tooth decay, recently reported
in Reader's Digest. So always follow the cold Gateway to
clean your breath while you clean your teeth and stop

Speaker 3 (13:29):
Rush your teeth cold gates, coldgate.
Speaker 2 (13:33):
Green clean breath, water, toothpaste, water, lean dirt, and the
cold gateway stops tooth decayed best.
Speaker 3 (13:49):
Well.
Speaker 5 (13:50):
By the time I met mister Boynton in the cafeteria
for lunch, I still hadn't thought of a way to
keep mister Conklin from playing with the band. Just before
I went up to get my disease, I told mister
Boynton of my dilemma, hoping he might be able to help.
As always, he paid rapt attention to what I was saying,
then came up with a brilliant suggestion.
Speaker 3 (14:12):
Why not try the cherry prior da Miss Brooks.
Speaker 5 (14:17):
Either you haven't been listening or I've been talking through
my lima beans. All I'm trying to say, mister Boynton,
is that so far mister Conklin is still going to
perpetrate his tuba with the school band.
Speaker 3 (14:30):
There must be something we can do to stop him.
This means quite a bit to me personally.
Speaker 5 (14:34):
Really in what way, mister Boynton.
Speaker 13 (14:37):
Well, I'm I'm unalterably opposed to gambling, as you know,
but in this instance, I did make a small wager
with mister de Witt that our school would win the
Old Curse.
Speaker 3 (14:46):
Contest, a wager you didn't. It's just the price of
a new hat.
Speaker 5 (14:56):
I've got a cute idea. How much does the bet
amount to cash?
Speaker 3 (15:01):
Oh, it isn't important really, just the thought behind it
that counts.
Speaker 5 (15:04):
That's very true. But just the kicks? How much money
has it? Said?
Speaker 3 (15:09):
Well, two dollars.
Speaker 5 (15:19):
Seems like enough. I can surely get a one propeller
job for that. If you get back to mister Conklin.
Walter told me in class that the band was going
up an individual.
Speaker 3 (15:31):
Car, and mister Conklin's going in one of them.
Speaker 5 (15:33):
No, Walters seemed to it that each car is completely
filled with students and instruments. There's just no room for
mister Conklin.
Speaker 13 (15:40):
Well, that's promising. His own car was pretty badly banged
up last week, wasn't it.
Speaker 5 (15:44):
Yes, But it's in the school auto shop and should
be ready today.
Speaker 3 (15:48):
Should it?
Speaker 12 (15:49):
Yes?
Speaker 5 (15:49):
It shouldn't. You might have an idea there, mister Bindon, who's.
Speaker 3 (15:56):
Been working on his commerce brooks.
Speaker 5 (15:58):
Probably someone very competent. But Stretch Snodgrass also spends a
lot of time in the shop.
Speaker 13 (16:04):
And Stretch snut Gas isn't the most brilliant student at school.
Speaker 8 (16:07):
Is he?
Speaker 5 (16:08):
No, Stretch Snodgrass isn't the most brilliant student at school.
Speaker 14 (16:12):
Stretch Snodgrass may not be the most brilliant putting shoreloaded
with charm.
Speaker 5 (16:18):
Well, just the fellow we wanted to see.
Speaker 3 (16:21):
Pull up a chair, Stretch, Yes, take this chair right
here in a minute.
Speaker 5 (16:24):
I ain't yet, please, Stretch, I haven't eaten yet.
Speaker 14 (16:31):
Well, you're on a diet, I ain't. God, I can't
decide what to take today. I'm in a real mental quarry.
Speaker 5 (16:46):
Please, one marble head in school is enough.
Speaker 3 (16:51):
What's the reason for your quandary, Stretch?
Speaker 14 (16:54):
I can't decide whether to take the chicken, ela King,
the lamb Steward, the meat move.
Speaker 5 (16:58):
Why don't you wait till tomorrow and take the corn
beef hash, then you'll get all three?
Speaker 14 (17:05):
Sure that's a swell idea. Wait till tomorrow and get
all three.
Speaker 15 (17:09):
Boy, you sure got plenty of brains up there in
your chromium, my chromium.
Speaker 14 (17:21):
You know your gray matter. I bet you've got some
twisty curves in your Sarah Bellamy.
Speaker 5 (17:32):
Shell. I guess my Sarah's as curvy is the next
fronts Stretch. What we wanted to ask you about was
mister Conklin's car.
Speaker 3 (17:40):
Yes, is it all ready to roll? Sure? What do
you want me to roll it?
Speaker 5 (17:44):
This boy is psychic. Now we've got to be careful
now when mister Conklin lets us use his car for
Madison's new driving class. Last week it got pretty badly
banged up, didn't it straight?
Speaker 3 (17:56):
But now that it's all fixed, it could be used
to give one more lesson, couldn't it.
Speaker 5 (17:59):
And what better pupil could we have to take the
lesson than Stretch. I'll meet you outside in ten minutes.
Speaker 3 (18:06):
I'm not so fast, miss Brooks.
Speaker 8 (18:07):
First I gotta eat.
Speaker 5 (18:08):
Of course you do, and I want you to eat
a nice leisurely meal, Stretch. But there's one thing I
want to tell you before you bolt down a sandwich.
When you go to the garage to get the car,
be sure and back it out carefully.
Speaker 3 (18:21):
Well, kermis Brooks.
Speaker 10 (18:22):
See you in front of the school about ten minutes.
Speaker 5 (18:24):
I'll be sure and back it out of the garage. Stretch.
Speaker 13 (18:27):
Oh well, well, miss Brooks, if you're a meeting stretch
in ten minutes, you better get your dessert.
Speaker 5 (18:32):
Oh there's no hurry, mister Barton. I don't think i'll
have to give Stretch a lesson if he obeys instructions.
What do you mean You heard me tell him to
back the car out of the garage, didn't you. Yes, Well,
after the accident the other day, I backed it in.
Speaker 8 (18:56):
Miss mister Boyton. I don't like to disturb your lunch,
but I got you.
Speaker 5 (19:00):
We're all finished, Walder, What is it?
Speaker 7 (19:02):
Well, I just came from the school garage. Mister Cocklin's
been in to look at his car.
Speaker 3 (19:06):
How did he find it?
Speaker 8 (19:08):
He just scraped the back wall with a pen knife.
Speaker 5 (19:10):
In there it was.
Speaker 7 (19:12):
Street snodgrasted something horrible again.
Speaker 5 (19:15):
Good old Stretch. Now, mister Conklin won't be able to
drive up to the band content.
Speaker 8 (19:20):
That's what you think. He's going on the six pm train.
He'll be there first thing in the morning, but that will.
Speaker 5 (19:26):
Be disastrous if he gets to practice with the band.
Speaker 3 (19:29):
We're sunk, don't I know it, Miss Brooks. We've got
to put our heads together.
Speaker 5 (19:33):
You're right, mister Bardon. Goodbye Walter.
Speaker 7 (19:43):
Please, Miss Brooks, you've got to concentrate on the immediate problem,
your long rain.
Speaker 8 (19:48):
James can wait. I know we just got to keep
mister Conklin from making that train.
Speaker 5 (19:56):
Yes, but how I don't know.
Speaker 7 (19:59):
All I know is he's because he never sleeps very
well on trains. So he's going home right after school
and take a nap, a nap.
Speaker 5 (20:07):
Wait a minute, I think I've got something. Come closer,
mister Barton, Yes, Miss Brooks, still closer like this. Goodbye Walter.
Here's the idea. If he's going to take a nap,
maybe we can set the clocks back in his house
so that when he wakes up, he'll think it's much
earlier and miss the train.
Speaker 3 (20:27):
But is that the only train that occurs today?
Speaker 8 (20:30):
Definitely? Oh, what an idea, Miss Brooks.
Speaker 7 (20:33):
I give one hundred dollars for the right to x
ray the remarkable gray matter in your cranial cavity.
Speaker 5 (20:39):
Why, Walter, what a lovely thing to say about the
Cerehbellamy and my chromium.
Speaker 9 (21:00):
He's asleepwater, Daddy's fast asleep on the couch.
Speaker 8 (21:04):
I don't know how you can sleep with all that
noise he's making.
Speaker 5 (21:08):
I'm sure hate to be your mother. I wouldn't like
that arrangement either.
Speaker 9 (21:13):
Now you set back that clock over there, and I'll
take care of this one on the mantel.
Speaker 8 (21:18):
Okay, let's see it's ten after five. Now I'll just
shut it back an hour. I'll do the same with
this one. Then we'll take care of the clocks upstairs
and in the kitchen. Jack, did you leave the front
door open for miss Brooks?
Speaker 7 (21:30):
And she's coming over to help divert your daddy's attention
until train time.
Speaker 5 (21:34):
It's open water. Now you take the library clock and
i'll go up to the bedroom. This way, stretch. Mister
Conklin's asleep on the couch.
Speaker 1 (21:52):
Good.
Speaker 3 (21:53):
May you want me to set this clock back in hour?
Speaker 8 (21:55):
Right right?
Speaker 5 (21:56):
I'll set this one back on the manvil there.
Speaker 10 (22:05):
Gosh, this sounds like an angry sea lion.
Speaker 3 (22:09):
I think he's waking up.
Speaker 5 (22:10):
I thought it was a car backfiring.
Speaker 14 (22:14):
I better get out of here, mister Conckland.
Speaker 3 (22:16):
We aren't on terms, missus Brooks Snodgrass.
Speaker 5 (22:21):
Oh don't don't get up, mister Conkland. Just lie there
and relax. We'll all pull up chairs and chat.
Speaker 3 (22:26):
With you for a while, chat with me even.
Speaker 10 (22:29):
Why have you snodgrass? There's something I'd like to ask you.
Speaker 14 (22:35):
I thought there might be.
Speaker 10 (22:38):
Did you have anything to do with wrecking my car
this afternoon?
Speaker 14 (22:42):
I'd rather not answer that question, sir.
Speaker 3 (22:45):
Why not?
Speaker 14 (22:46):
Because my parents brought me up not to be no liar. Well,
I gotta go to football practice now, why miss Brooks,
you assume mister Cockland, I guess.
Speaker 10 (22:59):
H just as well he left.
Speaker 11 (23:00):
I shouldn't upset my temperament before the band concert. By
the way, it must be getting toward train time.
Speaker 5 (23:06):
Oh no, you've got loads of time, mister Conklin.
Speaker 10 (23:09):
What time is it?
Speaker 5 (23:10):
It's three fifteen? See by that clock over there.
Speaker 10 (23:14):
Three fifteen. That's peculiar.
Speaker 11 (23:18):
That's peculiar, As I recall, I didn't lie down until
three thirty.
Speaker 5 (23:24):
Well, you know how swiftly time passes when you're sleeping.
Speaker 11 (23:30):
It might pass swiftly, but it doesn't pass backwards.
Speaker 10 (23:35):
Look outside, it's almost dark.
Speaker 5 (23:37):
Oh hadn't you heard there's an eclipse of the sun today.
Speaker 8 (23:44):
I hope you didn't wake up, old marblehead.
Speaker 10 (23:49):
Have a nice nap, pat.
Speaker 3 (23:51):
Thing, Oh quieter, what time do you have, Harriet?
Speaker 8 (23:57):
Oh, you've got plenty of time, daddy. It's only four.
Speaker 11 (24:00):
Fifteen, four fifteen, but miss Brooks says it's three fifteen.
Speaker 5 (24:05):
That's a democracy for you. Everyone's entitled to his own time.
Speaker 8 (24:10):
I'll see here.
Speaker 3 (24:11):
I've got to know just where I stand with that train.
Speaker 5 (24:14):
It's four fifteen, mister Conklin, that's what the time is.
Speaker 11 (24:17):
Actually, Then why did you keep insisting that it was
three fifteen?
Speaker 5 (24:22):
Once I've had a taste of daylight saving I'm a
very hard loser.
Speaker 3 (24:27):
Excuse me, but the door is open, so I don't
come in.
Speaker 11 (24:29):
Come in, boy, and come in.
Speaker 3 (24:31):
Will you please tell me what time it is? Or certainly,
sir it's three. No, it's five point thirty.
Speaker 5 (24:39):
Well that's what makes horse races five.
Speaker 3 (24:43):
Five thirty. Then I have no minute to lose. It's
a half hour drive to the station from here.
Speaker 10 (24:47):
Fortunately, i'm off hatch hand me that police somebody.
Speaker 5 (24:50):
Here you are, mister Conklind.
Speaker 8 (24:53):
Oh, I'm sorry, sir.
Speaker 5 (24:55):
Did it catch your toes?
Speaker 3 (24:58):
Just a few of them, mister. Now I've got to
get out of here, pointing did you drive over here? Yes, sir,
but Mike car too late? For me to call a cab.
Now will you drive me me?
Speaker 13 (25:11):
Well, i'd like to, sir, but I've got a very
important engagement in two minutes.
Speaker 3 (25:15):
It's vital, sir. And now would you like me to
drive you, Miss Brooks.
Speaker 11 (25:20):
I can only answer that query by remarking that there
is nothing more useless than a dead tuba player. If
you don't mind, Boyd, and I'll borrow your card drive
myself to the station.
Speaker 3 (25:33):
Well, I guess that'll be all right, mister Carkle. It's
park right in front of the house. Thank you, goodbye everyone,
goodbye dad.
Speaker 5 (25:40):
I'm mister Johnson.
Speaker 10 (26:08):
There's one more favor I'd like to ask of you, Boynton.

Yes, mister Coplan, may.

Speaker 13 (26:37):
The reason I came over here this afternoon was to
borrow a few dollars what for for gasoline.
Speaker 3 (26:44):
In my car had taken another eight blocks.
Speaker 8 (26:46):
