Speaker 1 (00:00):
Colgate Dental Cream to clean your breath while you clean
your teeth and help stop tooth decay. And Bluster Cream
shampoo for soft, glamorous, caressible hair. Bring you Our Miss
Brooks starring Eve Arden.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
Yes, it's time once again for Eve Arden.
Speaker 1 (00:22):
In another comedy episode of Our Miss Brooks written by
al lewis Well, the football fever is sweeping through our
schools once more, and Madison High School, where our Miss
Brooks teaches English, is no exception.
Speaker 3 (00:33):
No indeed, most of the kids at Madison, eat, sleep,
and talk nothing but football. Of course, it doesn't affect
me one way or another. When I start my class
in the morning, I simply bark the signal for order,
call my monitors into a huddle, and with a single
wing to the right, do a reverse line buck through
the second act of Macbeth. Last Wednesday, when Walter Denton,
(00:56):
one of my pupils, joined my landlady missus Davis and me,
I tried at him about not doing his homework properly.
His reaction was instantaneous.
Speaker 4 (01:05):
I don't see how you can say that, Miss Brooks. Well,
ever since the fall term started, I've been doing my football.
Speaker 5 (01:11):
Religiously No, you're not quite sure, Walter that those little
coffee cakes and some milk would be enough. Oil.
Speaker 4 (01:22):
No, ma'am, that's all I've got in the house.
Speaker 6 (01:27):
Oh, then it'll be enough.
Speaker 5 (01:30):
Boy the realist, I wish I had something else to
offer you. A growing boy should eat a big breakfast,
especially an athlete like Walters athlete.
Speaker 4 (01:40):
Yeah, I told Missus Davis about it before you came
into breakfast, Miss Brooks.
Speaker 3 (01:43):
I'm going out for the team this year.
Speaker 4 (01:45):
I've just gotta get my letter you.
Speaker 3 (01:48):
But Walter, you don't seem to have too much aptitude
for athletics.
Speaker 6 (01:51):
Who hasn't.
Speaker 4 (01:52):
Only only reason I didn't make the football team last
year was because I hurt my arm trying out for
the baseball team.
Speaker 5 (02:00):
Did you make the baseball team, dear?
Speaker 4 (02:03):
Oh no, Missus Davis, But only because I hurt my
foot trying to get my M in track. And I'd
have made that too if my ribs weren't so sore
from water polo.
Speaker 3 (02:14):
Well, that's one thing about Walder. If he doesn't get
his m from Madison, he'll get it from the Mayo
Brothers clinic. Maybe you'll be luckier this season, Walder. Now
as soon as you finish moistening your fingers and picking
cake crumbs off the tablecloth, we can get started for school, okay,
miss Brooks.
Speaker 4 (02:32):
Gee, if I do make the team, I'll be playing
alongside my pal.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
Stretched, not Drass.
Speaker 4 (02:36):
He's one of the best athletes Madison ever had.
Speaker 7 (02:38):
You know?
Speaker 3 (02:39):
Really sure?
Speaker 6 (02:40):
He's a three letter man.
Speaker 3 (02:42):
He's a three letterman in my English class too, After
A B and C. He's a goner.
Speaker 6 (02:57):
Paul, are almost there, Miss Brooks.
Speaker 4 (02:58):
We'll park down by the athlete if you don't mind.
Stretch might be working out early this morning.
Speaker 3 (03:03):
All right, Walter. You're certainly fond of the kid, aren't you.
Speaker 4 (03:06):
Yeah, he's my buddy, Miss Brooks, and I want you
to know that we're sure grateful you for keeping him
eligible this year. Gosh, if you didn't help him with
his studies after school, I don't know what would happen.
Speaker 3 (03:16):
I do.
Speaker 4 (03:19):
Well, here's the football field. I'll just roll up these
windows and lock your doors.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
Well, you've got the ball, why aren't you running with it?
Speaker 6 (03:29):
He might through the window?
Speaker 7 (03:31):
Are you all right?
Speaker 8 (03:31):
Miss Brooks?
Speaker 3 (03:32):
If I am, I owe it all to my shatterproof skin.
Speaker 7 (03:36):
Sorry, books, I don't usually kick them that crooked.
Speaker 4 (03:38):
Oh that's okay, Stretch.
Speaker 6 (03:40):
Gosh, look at all that glass. Lucky, the laces weren't cut.
Speaker 7 (03:43):
That football is school property.
Speaker 3 (03:48):
My school property too. Let's take a look at my laces.
Speaker 6 (03:53):
Well, I'm you glad, you're okay, miss Brooks.
Speaker 7 (03:55):
The reason I'm working out this early is because they're
remodeled in my room at home, and I had to
sleep on our drafty back porch.
Speaker 6 (04:01):
I got a beat king in my leg. You got
a king in your leg? Yeah, you know, like when
you pull a lingament.
Speaker 3 (04:12):
Yeah, those linaments can sure cause a lot of troumble.
Where can you model in your room? Stretched?
Speaker 6 (04:20):
Well? You know, our living quarters are behind my father's
pet shop. Yeah, and Dad got.
Speaker 7 (04:24):
A big ship with her marmosets in the other day
and he needs more space. But it's only temporary. It'll
take a few weeks to switch the bedrooms around. Then
i'll be back indoors again.
Speaker 4 (04:32):
But meantime, you can get a bad draft and pull
another lingament.
Speaker 3 (04:37):
Or even bruise attendant.
Speaker 4 (04:41):
No kidding, Stretch, you gotta find another place to sleep, well,
is right, Stretch?
Speaker 3 (04:45):
Wait a minute, haven't you got an aunt who lives alone?
Speaker 6 (04:48):
You mean the one you met at the movies the
other night.
Speaker 3 (04:50):
Yes, she seemed inordinately fond of you.
Speaker 6 (04:53):
Oh that's just the way she acts. She really likes me.
But she lives way out on Clark Street. That's halfway
to Clay City.
Speaker 4 (05:04):
Look, if you're worried about getting to school in the morning, Stretch,
I'll be happy to pick you up and drive you in.
After all, if we're gonna be on a football team together,
we'll be practicing a lot in the mornings.
Speaker 6 (05:13):
See that's awful nice of you. Water.
Speaker 7 (05:15):
I'll call out any before school this morning. I'm sure
she won't mind. And then I'll have my dad move
my things out there in our truck.
Speaker 3 (05:20):
Oh great, maybe the marmosets would carry them over for you.
Speaker 6 (05:24):
I'm sure glad you got the idea for me to move.
Miss Brooks. That porch is pretty drafty.
Speaker 7 (05:29):
Well, I'm gonna practice a little while longer.
Speaker 6 (05:31):
How about you, Walter, want to work on? Oh?
Speaker 4 (05:32):
Sure, Stretch, how about you, Miss Brooks want to watch?
Speaker 3 (05:35):
No, thanks, Walter, I'd better get into school. Mister Conklin
wants to see me before my first class.
Speaker 4 (05:40):
I'm okay, but you don't know what you're missing.
Speaker 3 (05:42):
Whole stretch here. Sure has an educated toe.
Speaker 6 (05:45):
Good.
Speaker 3 (05:45):
Let's hope it may one day spread through his brain.
Speaker 9 (05:57):
Miss Brooks, I've summoned you here to my office mend
you for the splendid work you're doing with stretched Snodgrass.
Speaker 3 (06:03):
Well, thank you, mister Conkline.
Speaker 9 (06:04):
But you've got to keep that boe eligible for football.
If Madison's team doesn't make a presentable showing this season,
I'll never hear the end of it from Jason.
Speaker 3 (06:12):
Brill, Play Cities principal the same.
Speaker 9 (06:15):
He's the bane of my existence, Miss Brooks. We've been
rivals a good many years, oh.
Speaker 3 (06:20):
Even before you were principals of rival.
Speaker 9 (06:21):
School, before we were teachers. Even in state normal, I
found him abnormal. He'll go to any lengths to defeat
and embarrass me.
Speaker 6 (06:32):
Now.
Speaker 9 (06:33):
Brill phoned me last night and said he'd be dropping
in to see me this morning.
Speaker 8 (06:36):
He said he'd have a juicy bit of news for me.
Speaker 9 (06:39):
Well, if he thinks he's got juicy news for me,
I've got still juicier news for him. Do you know
what it is, Miss Brooks.
Speaker 3 (06:46):
You're opening an orange ade stand?
Speaker 10 (06:53):
Please.
Speaker 9 (06:57):
I just learned that this mooney one of the greatest
college football players is interested in a high school coaching
job in this part of the country.
Speaker 8 (07:04):
I've already opened.
Speaker 9 (07:05):
Negotiations for his services by mail, and it's a foregone
conclusion that he'll accept my offer. I can't wait until
I see the expression on Brill's face when I tell
him about it.
Speaker 3 (07:21):
Some states that laugh would be banned.
Speaker 9 (07:27):
Come in wait, Good morning, Osgod, Good morning to you, Jason.
Speaker 6 (07:33):
I have a juicy bit of news for you this morning.
Speaker 8 (07:36):
And I have a juicy bit of news.
Speaker 11 (07:38):
For you too, Osgod, Oh bardon me, how are you,
miss Brookes?
Speaker 3 (07:42):
Juicy? Thanks?
Speaker 6 (07:46):
Osgood.
Speaker 12 (07:47):
I've just signed Biff Mooney to coach the Clay City
football team this season.
Speaker 7 (07:51):
Well, isn't that nice?
Speaker 9 (07:54):
Now, I'll just tell you what I've got up.
Speaker 8 (07:55):
My Bif Mooney.
Speaker 3 (08:00):
Remember that expression you were waiting to see on mister
Brill's face. Yes, you're wearing it.
Speaker 11 (08:07):
I'll see here, Bril.
Speaker 9 (08:08):
In the first place, I don't believe a man like
Mooney would be knucklehead enough to sign with your outfit.
But even if he has a good coach, can't make
a team without material material.
Speaker 12 (08:16):
Why last season our backs went through your line like
it was damp cheese claws.
Speaker 3 (08:21):
Well, it's not going to be that way this season,
mister Brill. Go ahead, Miss Brooks tell him, this season
is going to be dry cheese claws. We got some
great players on the squad, players like Stretched Snodgrass.
Speaker 8 (08:33):
Stretch Snudgress. Who's he?
Speaker 3 (08:37):
That's him?
Speaker 7 (08:40):
What was that?
Speaker 6 (08:41):
Pardon me?
Speaker 8 (08:42):
OLL's good?
Speaker 11 (08:42):
Is that a football in your lap?
Speaker 8 (08:44):
Or have you gone off your dyet?
Speaker 9 (08:48):
I told those kids a thousand times.
Speaker 6 (08:51):
Come in.
Speaker 7 (08:52):
Well, I'm awful, sorry, mister Conklin. I'm afraid I kick
my football in here.
Speaker 9 (08:55):
I'm afraid you did, stretch, But I don't understand why.
I thought I told you to confine your practicing to
the other end of the field.
Speaker 6 (09:02):
But I did, mister Conton, that's where I kicked it from.
Speaker 9 (09:06):
Well, there's absolutely no excuse in the world nice stick.
Speaker 12 (09:11):
For you mean to tell me that that ball was
propelled here by that boy's foot.
Speaker 3 (09:20):
It wasn't flown here by one of his Blue Jay
corn plasters.
Speaker 9 (09:25):
That, mister Brill, is our Stretch Snodgrass, one of the
greatest triple threat quarterbacks in the country. Stretch, this is,
mister Brill. Principle of Clay City High.
Speaker 11 (09:35):
Hi, sir, Hello shirl.
Speaker 8 (09:39):
You tell me where did you learn to kick like that?
Speaker 7 (09:42):
Oh? It's just natural with me, I guess, But if
you don't mind, I'd rather not discuss football no more.
This morning, I just got some bad news about my pal,
Waller Denton.
Speaker 6 (09:50):
He's been cut off the football squad.
Speaker 7 (09:52):
Why stretch because he was a twenty ninth man and
we only got twenty eight uniforms.
Speaker 3 (09:56):
Well, it would be a little embarrassing if he were
sending as a substitute.
Speaker 9 (10:02):
I don't see how a Spindley pippot like Denton can go.
Speaker 10 (10:05):
Out to the team in the first place.
Speaker 9 (10:06):
He couldn't carry a football and a wheelbarrow.
Speaker 7 (10:10):
Please, mister Conklin, you're talking about my pal.
Speaker 6 (10:13):
There's nothing he wouldn't do for me.
Speaker 7 (10:15):
Gosh, when he heard I was moving out to my
aunt's place on Clark Street, he even offered to pick
me up every morning.
Speaker 8 (10:20):
Did you say you were moving to Clark Street?
Speaker 6 (10:23):
Yes, sir, way out in the thirty nine hundred block.
But that's halfway to Clay City.
Speaker 11 (10:28):
Why you're in the district that Why don't we have
lunch together this afternoon?
Speaker 6 (10:32):
Boy?
Speaker 12 (10:34):
To stay in the school cafeteria about twelve, just the two.
Speaker 3 (10:38):
Of us from the picture you were meant for me.
Speaker 11 (10:43):
See here brill and tell me, boy, do you kick
them that far?
Speaker 6 (10:46):
Often? Well?
Speaker 7 (10:47):
With all I should do, any boasting, I almost never done.
No kicking which the ball don't travel over seventy eighty
yards hardly amazing?
Speaker 6 (10:55):
And how do you pass in English?
Speaker 3 (10:57):
By the skin of his teeth?
Speaker 10 (11:10):
Power?
Speaker 1 (11:10):
Miss Brooks starring Eve Varden will continue in just a moment,
but first here is Verne Smith now proof that brushing
teeth right after eating with Colgate dental cream helped stop.
Speaker 6 (11:20):
Tooth decay before it starts. Continuous research hundreds.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
Of case histories makes this the most conclusive proof in
all Datifrice research on tooth decay. Eminent dental authorities who
provised hundreds of college men and women for over two years.
One group always brushed their teeth with Colgates right after eating.
The other followed their usual dental care. The group using
Colgate denttle cream as directed. Using Colgates exclusively showed a
(11:45):
startling reduction and average number of cavities far less tooth decay.
The other group developed new cavities at a much higher rate.
Speaker 6 (11:52):
No other Dataprice offers proof of these results.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
Modern research indicates decay is caused by moth acids, which
are at their worst after meals or snacks. When you
brush your teeth with coal gates right after eating, you
help remove acids before they can harm enamel. Yes, Coalgates
contains all unnecessary ingredients, including an exclusive patented ingredient for
effective daily dental care. And remember Coalgates cleans your breath
(12:17):
while it cleans your teeth.
Speaker 7 (12:19):
Always use Colgate.
Speaker 1 (12:20):
Dentel cream right after eating to help prevent new cavities.
Help stop tooth decay before it starts.
Speaker 3 (12:33):
All during my morning classes, I worried about Jason Brill
having lunch with Madison Star quarterbacks. When I communicated my
fears to mister Conklin, he.
Speaker 9 (12:41):
Said, Miss Brooks, we've got to find out what that blackout.
Speaker 6 (12:44):
Is up to. It all costs.
Speaker 3 (12:46):
So when lunch period finally rolled around, I followed the
blaggard into the school restaurant and borrowed an apron from
one of the girls behind the steam table.
Speaker 8 (12:55):
Come over here to this corner table stretch. We won't
be disturbed.
Speaker 6 (12:58):
Here, well, came mister Brill.
Speaker 8 (13:01):
Eh, now sit down my boy.
Speaker 12 (13:03):
Now, then there's something I must talk to you about
in strictest confidence. In strictest confidence, it concerns your football career.
Speaker 3 (13:10):
Who gets the line of beans?
Speaker 12 (13:12):
Eh, Miss Brooks, I thought this was a self service cafeteria.
Speaker 3 (13:16):
Oh it is, mister brill. Except when we have a
distinguished visitor like yourself, then I like to see that
he's well taken care of. I've brought you each the
blue plate, just what.
Speaker 7 (13:25):
I wanted, sucker tash and lime of beans.
Speaker 6 (13:28):
Thanks, Miss Brooks.
Speaker 3 (13:29):
You're perfectly welcome, Stretch. Now please continue with your confidential conversation.
Speaker 6 (13:33):
Gentlemen, you are saying, mister Berl, that you want to die.
You what died? To tell you?
Speaker 11 (13:37):
What a lovely day it is.
Speaker 12 (13:39):
Sunshining, not a bit humored. Allow, cumulus clouds do seem
to be gathering in the east. Fact, it looks like
we might be in for a bit of a blow.
Speaker 3 (13:47):
This is going to be a weather report. I might
as well blow too. I'll go get some dessert for
you to.
Speaker 12 (13:51):
Do that you now, then, Stretch, I'll come right to
the point in your prison address on Clark Street. You're
eligible to enter Clay City High and that's what I.
Speaker 8 (13:59):
Want you to do transfer, immediately.
Speaker 6 (14:01):
Transfer from Madison exactly.
Speaker 12 (14:04):
You said yourself that your pal Walter Denton couldn't get
on your football team because there's no uniform for him.
Speaker 8 (14:09):
Isn't that right?
Speaker 6 (14:10):
Yeah?
Speaker 12 (14:10):
Every American boy should have the right to play football,
shouldn't he?
Speaker 8 (14:14):
Of course he should. Now with you off the medicine team,
there'd be another uniform available for Walter.
Speaker 6 (14:20):
I never thought of it like that.
Speaker 13 (14:21):
We'll think of it.
Speaker 7 (14:26):
See on economy, Walter won't get to play at all.
He'll never get his letter in gosh find peal.
Speaker 6 (14:33):
I am.
Speaker 12 (14:34):
Yes. I don't know why he even talks to you now, Stretch.
I've got to get back to clay City High at once,
but I've arranged for our new coach, Fifth Mooney to
meet you outside your main gate after school.
Speaker 6 (14:44):
Fifth Mooney is here, your new coach of course.
Speaker 12 (14:47):
Now Biff will accompany you to your parents, Stretch and
get their consent to the transfer.
Speaker 8 (14:51):
It's just a formality, you understand.
Speaker 7 (14:53):
Yes, sir, I guess if it's gonna help Walter, I'll
have to do it. I hate to think of what
mister Conckton will say when he hears about the O.
Speaker 12 (15:00):
Get about mister Conklin. We know that what we're doing
is right. It's for our pals happiness. There's absolutely no
reason to be afraid.
Speaker 8 (15:07):
Of mister Conklin.
Speaker 6 (15:08):
Then I'll go right down and ask him for the train.
Speaker 7 (15:10):
You wait for it, wait till I get out of
the building.
Speaker 3 (15:22):
So you've seen mister Conklin every time I got near
the table, they were talking about the weather.
Speaker 9 (15:26):
Oh, perhaps our fears were exaggerated, Miss Brooks granted Brill
might try to get away with something. Come in, well,
it's stretched Snodgrass. Come right in, my boy, Sit down here,
take my chair, Sit by the window until I open
it for you.
Speaker 3 (15:41):
You want the pan on hot cowl pedicure.
Speaker 6 (15:48):
You don't know what I'm here for.
Speaker 9 (15:49):
If you're worried about that window you broke this morning,
forget it.
Speaker 6 (15:53):
What kick that was? Thanks? But you still don't know
what I want, mister Conklin, name.
Speaker 10 (15:58):
It and it's yours.
Speaker 8 (15:59):
What is it you want?
Speaker 10 (16:00):
My boy?
Speaker 7 (16:01):
I want to transfer to clay City High Cirtainly I
just sit.
Speaker 9 (16:05):
Down at my desk, get a pen and put out
the necessity a transfer to clay City Hill. What poppy
Cock did Bill feed you at lunch, Stretch, he didn't
feed me no Poppy cut it.
Speaker 2 (16:23):
But he can't get away with it this time.
Speaker 9 (16:25):
No matter what he told you, you can't transfer to
Clay City. You don't live in their district.
Speaker 6 (16:30):
I do now what. I use them too, but I
do now. You see, sir, I've moved in with my
aunt and she lives right near Clay City.
Speaker 10 (16:42):
Moved in with your aunt, and whose bright idea was that?
Speaker 3 (16:46):
If you excuse me, I'm gonna lie down somewhere, Miss
brook in front of a street car. I think. Don't
let me explain, mister Conklin. Stretch was sleeping in the draft.
Speaker 9 (16:58):
And I thought it was that your trouble, Miss Brooks.
Speaker 6 (17:01):
You think too much, Stretch.
Speaker 10 (17:03):
You know about this transfer yet?
Speaker 7 (17:05):
No, Sir, let us know. I'm gonna live without many,
but I'm meeting fifth Mooney after school.
Speaker 6 (17:09):
And he's gonna ask him for their permission.
Speaker 3 (17:11):
Stretch, let me ask you a question. In all the
years you've been here, mister Conklin has always treated you fairly,
hasn't he. I'll rephrase the question. In fact, i'll forget it.
You promise me that you would drop into my classroom
after school today sure.
Speaker 6 (17:28):
Miss Brooks. Let us if somebody will tell fifth Mooney to.
Speaker 3 (17:31):
Wait for me, we'll take care of bif Stretch. Now,
remember I want you to come to my classroom immediately
after school.
Speaker 7 (17:36):
Okay, Miss Brooks, see you letter write Stretch by mister Conklin.
Speaker 9 (17:39):
Not goodbye, Stretch, just aloha.
Speaker 6 (17:47):
Now.
Speaker 9 (17:49):
Well, miss Brooks, it was you who got us into this.
Speaker 14 (17:52):
Situation, and I'll get us out of it.
Speaker 3 (17:54):
And I think I can, mister Conklin, I think I've
got a plan. Supposing instead of being taken to stretches house,
this mooney were taken to my house.
Speaker 9 (18:02):
I don't understand Stretch wouldn't take him to your house.
Speaker 3 (18:05):
No, the real Stretch wouldn't, and Stretch his real parents
won't be there either. But this mooney doesn't know Stretch
from a hole in the ground?
Speaker 10 (18:12):
Does he come in? Oh, Walter Denton.
Speaker 3 (18:17):
I was just looking for Harriet night, mister Conklin shake
hands with a hole in the ground.
Speaker 11 (18:31):
I just can't believe that you're a stretch not dressed for.
Speaker 4 (18:34):
Sure, I am mister Mooney.
Speaker 8 (18:35):
Who did you think was well?
Speaker 15 (18:37):
You just don't sound like mister Brule said you would
the way he describe it you talked well differently.
Speaker 4 (18:42):
What's the way I talk got anything to do with gee?
I ain't never said nothing to get insulted for it
by nobody.
Speaker 8 (18:47):
Hardly, I take it all back.
Speaker 4 (18:52):
Well, this is the house, mister Mooney, Come on in.
My old lady always leaves the door open for me,
all Stretch. Oh, there's my dear old mom.

old enough to be the mother of such a big boy.
Speaker 3 (19:13):
Nain' it's the truth. Now, what can we do for
your coach?
Speaker 6 (19:18):
Coach?
Speaker 11 (19:19):
Well, how did you know I was a football coach?
Speaker 3 (19:20):
Well, it's just since you don't cochet, no, Doiley's for
a living? What a built on him?
Speaker 4 (19:34):
He wants me to transfer from Madison to clay City High.
Speaker 3 (19:36):
Ma Oh, now that's a serious step.
Speaker 11 (19:39):
I know it is, Missus.
Speaker 15 (19:41):
You see, it's for the boy's own good, and that's
why I'm here today to get you to acquiesce Stretch.
Speaker 3 (19:46):
This guy's getting fresh. Turn him out.
Speaker 11 (19:50):
Don't you see man, We just want your sanction. My
what you're okay?
Speaker 3 (19:55):
You're okay too, But what do you want?
Speaker 11 (20:00):
We want to stretch the transfer to play City High.
Speaker 3 (20:03):
Well I don't know this here, Madison learns him pretty good.
I think we'll keep him where he's at.
Speaker 15 (20:08):
Oh, please, missus Snodgrass, I don't don't be hasty. Maybe
we should discuss this with mister Snodgrass as well.
Speaker 4 (20:13):
Oh sure, pops right in the next room.
Speaker 11 (20:15):
I'll call him.
Speaker 3 (20:17):
Come Pa, meet the little man. Mister Mooney.
Speaker 11 (20:22):
I'm delighted to know you. Mister Snodgress.
Speaker 10 (20:25):
Youse are too kind.
Speaker 15 (20:29):
He'd like to get go permissions for stretch to transfer
to Clay City High.
Speaker 11 (20:32):
Mister Snodgrass. Oh, it's a wonderful school.
Speaker 10 (20:34):
Nothing doing transfers is for street cars.
Speaker 9 (20:40):
No, our boy wouldn't be happy, and no Clay City
High at their school.
Speaker 10 (20:45):
Just don't offer no advantages.
Speaker 3 (20:47):
No how, you don't offer nothing.
Speaker 15 (20:51):
No how, I don't see how you Fox can folks
can talk like this.
Speaker 3 (20:54):
Believe me, it ain't easy. I gotta go get supper ready, pie,
you get rid of say goodbye to mister Mooney for me.
Whenever he leaves. Like right away.
Speaker 16 (21:04):
I hope okay, Ma, see you later.
Speaker 4 (21:10):
Well, I guess that's the story, mister Mooney.
Speaker 15 (21:12):
Do no wait, Stretch, mister Snodgrass, if you let me
tell you something about playing.
Speaker 9 (21:16):
Nothing doing, I ain't taking any chances with my only
child's happiness.
Speaker 16 (21:20):
I I love this boy.
Speaker 14 (21:31):
Papa, dear, get out of here and help your mom
in the kitchen, you see, mister Mooney.
Speaker 3 (21:43):
I love you too, Papa.
Speaker 10 (21:47):
I know, I know, mister Mooney. If you Stretch, what
are you hanging around for?
Speaker 6 (21:55):
Kiss me?
Speaker 3 (21:56):
Papa?
Speaker 6 (21:58):
Out of here.
Speaker 10 (22:03):
He's such an affectionate little jerk, a youngster. He's always
been quite close.
Speaker 3 (22:08):
Excuse me, Daddy, but I saw your car outside and
the door was open.
Speaker 8 (22:11):
For my daughter, Harriet.
Speaker 10 (22:12):
Harriet, go away, child.
Speaker 15 (22:14):
But Danny, just a minute, I thought you said that
Stretch was your only child.
Speaker 9 (22:18):
Stre your brother, Harriet going out into the kitchen. Your
mother will explain the whole thing to you.
Speaker 10 (22:24):
Oh his mother here, stop the question. Just go in
and see it.
Speaker 3 (22:27):
It's on the table, par ype. Oh Harriet, it's so
nice to see you. Why don't you go home to
your mother?
Speaker 2 (22:39):
She did come home to our mother, Ma, But I
don't understand.
Speaker 3 (22:50):
I guess it's time we told you, Harriet. I am
your mother, and I are your father and me we've
been secretly married for sixteen years seventeen, I'm over seventeen.
I was hoping you wouldn't notice this.
Speaker 11 (23:12):
What is this all about, missus Snodgress. I demand to
know the truth.
Speaker 9 (23:15):
If it's not grown, who might as well know the
whole story, Harriet. As a poor but honest immigrant, I
entered this country illegally.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
Your mother and.
Speaker 9 (23:23):
I started out from the old Country together, but.
Speaker 3 (23:25):
I your mother couldn't make it. They shopped me at
the border. Four years later, I was snuggled into the country.
Speaker 9 (23:34):
With a group of Oriental laborers.
Speaker 3 (23:38):
Are lab don't look down your nose at me, girl,
I help build bolder damns.
Speaker 7 (23:48):
Mister Snodgress, Miss Brooks, and missus Snodgress, my mother's missus Snodgrass.
Speaker 6 (23:54):
Doorway boy, we're busy. I waited in miss Brook's classroom, like.
Speaker 11 (23:58):
She said, mister kunk ms Brooks, what is all this?
And who are you? I'm stretched Snodgrass, stretch Snodgrass?
Speaker 7 (24:06):
Did you call me?
Speaker 3 (24:07):
This?
Speaker 11 (24:09):
Are you?
Speaker 6 (24:10):
Fifth? Mooney?
Speaker 11 (24:11):
I was when I came in here, But right now I.
Speaker 9 (24:16):
Oh, it was absurd to think that this ridiculous scheme
would work. This is the real stretch Snodgrass, mister Mooney.
If he wants to transfer, I guess there's nothing we
can do.
Speaker 8 (24:24):
To stop him.
Speaker 3 (24:25):
And after all that iodine I used at the border, but.
Speaker 7 (24:30):
I won't need no transpernome, mister Conflin, that's what I
come over to tell, Miss Brooks. I talk to the
manager of the football team just now and he said
they're getting another uniform so.
Speaker 6 (24:38):
Waller can be on the team too.
Speaker 4 (24:40):
Oh boy, that's great, Stretch Stay.
Speaker 3 (24:42):
Instead of living with your aunts, you can move in
with me.
Speaker 10 (24:46):
You can move in with me.
Speaker 3 (24:48):
You can move in with you can sleep in the gym.
Speaker 1 (25:02):
Hardness armss Frooks returns in just a moment.

But first, dream Girl, dream Girl, Beautiful, luster cream Girl.
Speaker 1 (25:13):
Tonight, Yes, tonight, show him how much lovelier your hair
can look after a luster cream shampoo. Luster Cream, World's
finest shampoo. No other shampoo in the world gives Kadoma's
magic blend of secret ingredients plus gentle lanolin, not a soap,
not a liquid. Luster cream shampoo leaves hair three ways lovelier,
(25:35):
fragrantly clean, free of loose dandruff, glistening with sheen, soft,
manageable even in hardest water.

Speaker 1 (26:15):
And now once again, here is our miss Brooks.
Speaker 3 (26:19):
Well after the smoke had cleared away, and also Walter
Stretch and Harriet, mister Conton, and I took a very
bewildered Biss Mooney by the arms and pointed him towards
the nearest street car.
Speaker 9 (26:29):
And now, mister Mooney, you may return to your unscrupulous
employer and tell him that once again he has been
soundly defeated by superior brain power.
Speaker 3 (26:37):
Thank you, mister content.
Speaker 6 (26:42):
Conton.
Speaker 15 (26:42):
I did get a contract from mister Brill, but if
he's going to get me into things like this all
the time, I've got a good mind not to sign it.
Speaker 11 (26:48):
Well, you'll excuse me.
Speaker 9 (26:49):
Now, Hold on there, boy, you say you haven't signed
your coaching contract with Clay City.
Speaker 11 (26:55):
That's right, sir Who.
Speaker 9 (26:56):
Well, mister Mooney, why don't we have dinner together at
my place?
Speaker 10 (27:02):
There's something I'd like to.
Speaker 11 (27:03):
Discuss with you. I guess that could be arranged.
Speaker 9 (27:05):
Fine, We'll have dinner at eight.
Speaker 10 (27:08):
Care to join us, Miss brun.
Speaker 3 (27:09):
No thanks, I'm going to clay City tonight to see
the fireworks. Fireworks, unless I've miscalculated. If you and Biff
are having dinner at eight, mister Brill should be blowing
his top at nine.

Speaker 2 (00:19):
Yes, it's time once again for Eve Arden.
Speaker 1 (00:22):
In another comedy episode of Our Miss Brooks written by
al lewis Well, the football fever is sweeping through our
schools once more, and Madison High School, where our Miss
Brooks teaches English, is no exception.
Speaker 3 (00:33):
No indeed, most of the kids at Madison, eat, sleep,
and talk nothing but football. Of course, it doesn't affect
me one way or another. When I start my class
in the morning, I simply bark the signal for order,
call my monitors into a huddle, and with a single
wing to the right, do a reverse line buck through
the second act of Macbeth. Last Wednesday, when Walter Denton,
(00:56):
one of my pupils, joined my landlady missus Davis and me,
I tried at him about not doing his homework properly.
His reaction was instantaneous.
Speaker 4 (01:05):
I don't see how you can say that, Miss Brooks. Well,
ever since the fall term started, I've been doing my football.
Speaker 5 (01:11):
Religiously No, you're not quite sure, Walter that those little
coffee cakes and some milk would be enough. Oil.
Speaker 4 (01:22):
No, ma'am, that's all I've got in the house.
Speaker 6 (01:27):
Oh, then it'll be enough.
Speaker 5 (01:30):
Boy the realist, I wish I had something else to
offer you. A growing boy should eat a big breakfast,
especially an athlete like Walters athlete.
Speaker 4 (01:40):
Yeah, I told Missus Davis about it before you came
into breakfast, Miss Brooks.
Speaker 3 (01:43):
I'm going out for the team this year.
Speaker 4 (01:45):
I've just gotta get my letter you.
Speaker 3 (01:48):
But Walter, you don't seem to have too much aptitude
for athletics.
Speaker 6 (01:51):
Who hasn't.
Speaker 4 (01:52):
Only only reason I didn't make the football team last
year was because I hurt my arm trying out for
the baseball team.
Speaker 5 (02:00):
Did you make the baseball team, dear?
Speaker 4 (02:03):
Oh no, Missus Davis, But only because I hurt my
foot trying to get my M in track. And I'd
have made that too if my ribs weren't so sore
from water polo.
Speaker 3 (02:14):
Well, that's one thing about Walder. If he doesn't get
his m from Madison, he'll get it from the Mayo
Brothers clinic. Maybe you'll be luckier this season, Walder. Now
as soon as you finish moistening your fingers and picking
cake crumbs off the tablecloth, we can get started for school, okay,
miss Brooks.
Speaker 4 (02:32):
Gee, if I do make the team, I'll be playing
alongside my pal.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
Stretched, not Drass.
Speaker 4 (02:36):
He's one of the best athletes Madison ever had.
Speaker 7 (02:38):
You know?
Speaker 3 (02:39):
Really sure?
Speaker 6 (02:40):
He's a three letter man.
Speaker 3 (02:42):
He's a three letterman in my English class too, After
A B and C. He's a goner.
Speaker 6 (02:57):
Paul, are almost there, Miss Brooks.
Speaker 4 (02:58):
We'll park down by the athlete if you don't mind.
Stretch might be working out early this morning.
Speaker 3 (03:03):
All right, Walter. You're certainly fond of the kid, aren't you.
Speaker 4 (03:06):
Yeah, he's my buddy, Miss Brooks, and I want you
to know that we're sure grateful you for keeping him
eligible this year. Gosh, if you didn't help him with
his studies after school, I don't know what would happen.
Speaker 3 (03:16):
I do.
Speaker 4 (03:19):
Well, here's the football field. I'll just roll up these
windows and lock your doors.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
Well, you've got the ball, why aren't you running with it?
Speaker 6 (03:29):
He might through the window?
Speaker 7 (03:31):
Are you all right?
Speaker 8 (03:31):
Miss Brooks?
Speaker 3 (03:32):
If I am, I owe it all to my shatterproof skin.
Speaker 7 (03:36):
Sorry, books, I don't usually kick them that crooked.
Speaker 4 (03:38):
Oh that's okay, Stretch.
Speaker 6 (03:40):
Gosh, look at all that glass. Lucky, the laces weren't cut.
Speaker 7 (03:43):
That football is school property.
Speaker 3 (03:48):
My school property too. Let's take a look at my laces.
Speaker 6 (03:53):
Well, I'm you glad, you're okay, miss Brooks.
Speaker 7 (03:55):
The reason I'm working out this early is because they're
remodeled in my room at home, and I had to
sleep on our drafty back porch.
Speaker 6 (04:01):
I got a beat king in my leg. You got
a king in your leg? Yeah, you know, like when
you pull a lingament.
Speaker 3 (04:12):
Yeah, those linaments can sure cause a lot of troumble.
Where can you model in your room? Stretched?
Speaker 6 (04:20):
Well? You know, our living quarters are behind my father's
pet shop. Yeah, and Dad got.
Speaker 7 (04:24):
A big ship with her marmosets in the other day
and he needs more space. But it's only temporary. It'll
take a few weeks to switch the bedrooms around. Then
i'll be back indoors again.
Speaker 4 (04:32):
But meantime, you can get a bad draft and pull
another lingament.
Speaker 3 (04:37):
Or even bruise attendant.
Speaker 4 (04:41):
No kidding, Stretch, you gotta find another place to sleep, well,
is right, Stretch?
Speaker 3 (04:45):
Wait a minute, haven't you got an aunt who lives alone?
Speaker 6 (04:48):
You mean the one you met at the movies the
other night.
Speaker 3 (04:50):
Yes, she seemed inordinately fond of you.
Speaker 6 (04:53):
Oh that's just the way she acts. She really likes me.
But she lives way out on Clark Street. That's halfway
to Clay City.
Speaker 4 (05:04):
Look, if you're worried about getting to school in the morning, Stretch,
I'll be happy to pick you up and drive you in.
After all, if we're gonna be on a football team together,
we'll be practicing a lot in the mornings.
Speaker 6 (05:13):
See that's awful nice of you. Water.
Speaker 7 (05:15):
I'll call out any before school this morning. I'm sure
she won't mind. And then I'll have my dad move
my things out there in our truck.
Speaker 3 (05:20):
Oh great, maybe the marmosets would carry them over for you.
Speaker 6 (05:24):
I'm sure glad you got the idea for me to move.
Miss Brooks. That porch is pretty drafty.
Speaker 7 (05:29):
Well, I'm gonna practice a little while longer.
Speaker 6 (05:31):
How about you, Walter, want to work on? Oh?
Speaker 4 (05:32):
Sure, Stretch, how about you, Miss Brooks want to watch?
Speaker 3 (05:35):
No, thanks, Walter, I'd better get into school. Mister Conklin
wants to see me before my first class.
Speaker 4 (05:40):
I'm okay, but you don't know what you're missing.
Speaker 3 (05:42):
Whole stretch here. Sure has an educated toe.
Speaker 6 (05:45):
Good.
Speaker 3 (05:45):
Let's hope it may one day spread through his brain.
Speaker 9 (05:57):
Miss Brooks, I've summoned you here to my office mend
you for the splendid work you're doing with stretched Snodgrass.
Speaker 3 (06:03):
Well, thank you, mister Conkline.
Speaker 9 (06:04):
But you've got to keep that boe eligible for football.
If Madison's team doesn't make a presentable showing this season,
I'll never hear the end of it from Jason.
Speaker 3 (06:12):
Brill, Play Cities principal the same.
Speaker 9 (06:15):
He's the bane of my existence, Miss Brooks. We've been
rivals a good many years, oh.
Speaker 3 (06:20):
Even before you were principals of rival.
Speaker 9 (06:21):
School, before we were teachers. Even in state normal, I
found him abnormal. He'll go to any lengths to defeat
and embarrass me.
Speaker 6 (06:32):
Now.
Speaker 9 (06:33):
Brill phoned me last night and said he'd be dropping
in to see me this morning.
Speaker 8 (06:36):
He said he'd have a juicy bit of news for me.
Speaker 9 (06:39):
Well, if he thinks he's got juicy news for me,
I've got still juicier news for him. Do you know
what it is, Miss Brooks.
Speaker 3 (06:46):
You're opening an orange ade stand?
Speaker 10 (06:53):
Please.
Speaker 9 (06:57):
I just learned that this mooney one of the greatest
college football players is interested in a high school coaching
job in this part of the country.
Speaker 8 (07:04):
I've already opened.
Speaker 9 (07:05):
Negotiations for his services by mail, and it's a foregone
conclusion that he'll accept my offer. I can't wait until
I see the expression on Brill's face when I tell
him about it.
Speaker 3 (07:21):
Some states that laugh would be banned.
Speaker 9 (07:27):
Come in wait, Good morning, Osgod, Good morning to you, Jason.
Speaker 6 (07:33):
I have a juicy bit of news for you this morning.
Speaker 8 (07:36):
And I have a juicy bit of news.
Speaker 11 (07:38):
For you too, Osgod, Oh bardon me, how are you,
miss Brookes?
Speaker 3 (07:42):
Juicy? Thanks?
Speaker 6 (07:46):
Osgood.
Speaker 12 (07:47):
I've just signed Biff Mooney to coach the Clay City
football team this season.
Speaker 7 (07:51):
Well, isn't that nice?
Speaker 9 (07:54):
Now, I'll just tell you what I've got up.
Speaker 8 (07:55):
My Bif Mooney.
Speaker 3 (08:00):
Remember that expression you were waiting to see on mister
Brill's face. Yes, you're wearing it.
Speaker 11 (08:07):
I'll see here, Bril.
Speaker 9 (08:08):
In the first place, I don't believe a man like
Mooney would be knucklehead enough to sign with your outfit.
But even if he has a good coach, can't make
a team without material material.
Speaker 12 (08:16):
Why last season our backs went through your line like
it was damp cheese claws.
Speaker 3 (08:21):
Well, it's not going to be that way this season,
mister Brill. Go ahead, Miss Brooks tell him, this season
is going to be dry cheese claws. We got some
great players on the squad, players like Stretched Snodgrass.
Speaker 8 (08:33):
Stretch Snudgress. Who's he?
Speaker 3 (08:37):
That's him?
Speaker 7 (08:40):
What was that?
Speaker 6 (08:41):
Pardon me?
Speaker 8 (08:42):
OLL's good?
Speaker 11 (08:42):
Is that a football in your lap?
Speaker 8 (08:44):
Or have you gone off your dyet?
Speaker 9 (08:48):
I told those kids a thousand times.
Speaker 6 (08:51):
Come in.
Speaker 7 (08:52):
Well, I'm awful, sorry, mister Conklin. I'm afraid I kick
my football in here.
Speaker 9 (08:55):
I'm afraid you did, stretch, But I don't understand why.
I thought I told you to confine your practicing to
the other end of the field.
Speaker 6 (09:02):
But I did, mister Conton, that's where I kicked it from.
Speaker 9 (09:06):
Well, there's absolutely no excuse in the world nice stick.
Speaker 12 (09:11):
For you mean to tell me that that ball was
propelled here by that boy's foot.
Speaker 3 (09:20):
It wasn't flown here by one of his Blue Jay
corn plasters.
Speaker 9 (09:25):
That, mister Brill, is our Stretch Snodgrass, one of the
greatest triple threat quarterbacks in the country. Stretch, this is,
mister Brill. Principle of Clay City High.
Speaker 11 (09:35):
Hi, sir, Hello shirl.
Speaker 8 (09:39):
You tell me where did you learn to kick like that?
Speaker 7 (09:42):
Oh? It's just natural with me, I guess, But if
you don't mind, I'd rather not discuss football no more.
This morning, I just got some bad news about my pal,
Waller Denton.
Speaker 6 (09:50):
He's been cut off the football squad.
Speaker 7 (09:52):
Why stretch because he was a twenty ninth man and
we only got twenty eight uniforms.
Speaker 3 (09:56):
Well, it would be a little embarrassing if he were
sending as a substitute.
Speaker 9 (10:02):
I don't see how a Spindley pippot like Denton can go.
Speaker 10 (10:05):
Out to the team in the first place.
Speaker 9 (10:06):
He couldn't carry a football and a wheelbarrow.
Speaker 7 (10:10):
Please, mister Conklin, you're talking about my pal.
Speaker 6 (10:13):
There's nothing he wouldn't do for me.
Speaker 7 (10:15):
Gosh, when he heard I was moving out to my
aunt's place on Clark Street, he even offered to pick
me up every morning.
Speaker 8 (10:20):
Did you say you were moving to Clark Street?
Speaker 6 (10:23):
Yes, sir, way out in the thirty nine hundred block.
But that's halfway to Clay City.
Speaker 11 (10:28):
Why you're in the district that Why don't we have
lunch together this afternoon?
Speaker 6 (10:32):
Boy?
Speaker 12 (10:34):
To stay in the school cafeteria about twelve, just the two.
Speaker 3 (10:38):
Of us from the picture you were meant for me.
Speaker 11 (10:43):
See here brill and tell me, boy, do you kick
them that far?
Speaker 6 (10:46):
Often? Well?
Speaker 7 (10:47):
With all I should do, any boasting, I almost never done.
No kicking which the ball don't travel over seventy eighty
yards hardly amazing?
Speaker 6 (10:55):
And how do you pass in English?
Speaker 3 (10:57):
By the skin of his teeth?
Speaker 10 (11:10):
Power?
Speaker 1 (11:10):
Miss Brooks starring Eve Varden will continue in just a moment,
but first here is Verne Smith now proof that brushing
teeth right after eating with Colgate dental cream helped stop.
Speaker 6 (11:20):
Tooth decay before it starts. Continuous research hundreds.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
Of case histories makes this the most conclusive proof in
all Datifrice research on tooth decay. Eminent dental authorities who
provised hundreds of college men and women for over two years.
One group always brushed their teeth with Colgates right after eating.
The other followed their usual dental care. The group using
Colgate denttle cream as directed. Using Colgates exclusively showed a
(11:45):
startling reduction and average number of cavities far less tooth decay.
The other group developed new cavities at a much higher rate.
Speaker 6 (11:52):
No other Dataprice offers proof of these results.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
Modern research indicates decay is caused by moth acids, which
are at their worst after meals or snacks. When you
brush your teeth with coal gates right after eating, you
help remove acids before they can harm enamel. Yes, Coalgates
contains all unnecessary ingredients, including an exclusive patented ingredient for
effective daily dental care. And remember Coalgates cleans your breath
(12:17):
while it cleans your teeth.
Speaker 7 (12:19):
Always use Colgate.
Speaker 1 (12:20):
Dentel cream right after eating to help prevent new cavities.
Help stop tooth decay before it starts.
Speaker 3 (12:33):
All during my morning classes, I worried about Jason Brill
having lunch with Madison Star quarterbacks. When I communicated my
fears to mister Conklin, he.
Speaker 9 (12:41):
Said, Miss Brooks, we've got to find out what that blackout.
Speaker 6 (12:44):
Is up to. It all costs.
Speaker 3 (12:46):
So when lunch period finally rolled around, I followed the
blaggard into the school restaurant and borrowed an apron from
one of the girls behind the steam table.
Speaker 8 (12:55):
Come over here to this corner table stretch. We won't
be disturbed.
Speaker 6 (12:58):
Here, well, came mister Brill.
Speaker 8 (13:01):
Eh, now sit down my boy.
Speaker 12 (13:03):
Now, then there's something I must talk to you about
in strictest confidence. In strictest confidence, it concerns your football career.
Speaker 3 (13:10):
Who gets the line of beans?
Speaker 12 (13:12):
Eh, Miss Brooks, I thought this was a self service cafeteria.
Speaker 3 (13:16):
Oh it is, mister brill. Except when we have a
distinguished visitor like yourself, then I like to see that
he's well taken care of. I've brought you each the
blue plate, just what.
Speaker 7 (13:25):
I wanted, sucker tash and lime of beans.
Speaker 6 (13:28):
Thanks, Miss Brooks.
Speaker 3 (13:29):
You're perfectly welcome, Stretch. Now please continue with your confidential conversation.
Speaker 6 (13:33):
Gentlemen, you are saying, mister Berl, that you want to die.
You what died? To tell you?
Speaker 11 (13:37):
What a lovely day it is.
Speaker 12 (13:39):
Sunshining, not a bit humored. Allow, cumulus clouds do seem
to be gathering in the east. Fact, it looks like
we might be in for a bit of a blow.
Speaker 3 (13:47):
This is going to be a weather report. I might
as well blow too. I'll go get some dessert for
you to.
Speaker 12 (13:51):
Do that you now, then, Stretch, I'll come right to
the point in your prison address on Clark Street. You're
eligible to enter Clay City High and that's what I.
Speaker 8 (13:59):
Want you to do transfer, immediately.
Speaker 6 (14:01):
Transfer from Madison exactly.
Speaker 12 (14:04):
You said yourself that your pal Walter Denton couldn't get
on your football team because there's no uniform for him.
Speaker 8 (14:09):
Isn't that right?
Speaker 6 (14:10):
Yeah?
Speaker 12 (14:10):
Every American boy should have the right to play football,
shouldn't he?
Speaker 8 (14:14):
Of course he should. Now with you off the medicine team,
there'd be another uniform available for Walter.
Speaker 6 (14:20):
I never thought of it like that.
Speaker 13 (14:21):
We'll think of it.
Speaker 7 (14:26):
See on economy, Walter won't get to play at all.
He'll never get his letter in gosh find peal.
Speaker 6 (14:33):
I am.
Speaker 12 (14:34):
Yes. I don't know why he even talks to you now, Stretch.
I've got to get back to clay City High at once,
but I've arranged for our new coach, Fifth Mooney to
meet you outside your main gate after school.
Speaker 6 (14:44):
Fifth Mooney is here, your new coach of course.
Speaker 12 (14:47):
Now Biff will accompany you to your parents, Stretch and
get their consent to the transfer.
Speaker 8 (14:51):
It's just a formality, you understand.
Speaker 7 (14:53):
Yes, sir, I guess if it's gonna help Walter, I'll
have to do it. I hate to think of what
mister Conckton will say when he hears about the O.
Speaker 12 (15:00):
Get about mister Conklin. We know that what we're doing
is right. It's for our pals happiness. There's absolutely no
reason to be afraid.
Speaker 8 (15:07):
Of mister Conklin.
Speaker 6 (15:08):
Then I'll go right down and ask him for the train.
Speaker 7 (15:10):
You wait for it, wait till I get out of
the building.
Speaker 3 (15:22):
So you've seen mister Conklin every time I got near
the table, they were talking about the weather.
Speaker 9 (15:26):
Oh, perhaps our fears were exaggerated, Miss Brooks granted Brill
might try to get away with something. Come in, well,
it's stretched Snodgrass. Come right in, my boy, Sit down here,
take my chair, Sit by the window until I open
it for you.
Speaker 3 (15:41):
You want the pan on hot cowl pedicure.
Speaker 6 (15:48):
You don't know what I'm here for.
Speaker 9 (15:49):
If you're worried about that window you broke this morning,
forget it.
Speaker 6 (15:53):
What kick that was? Thanks? But you still don't know
what I want, mister Conklin, name.
Speaker 10 (15:58):
It and it's yours.
Speaker 8 (15:59):
What is it you want?
Speaker 10 (16:00):

Speaker 7 (16:01):

Speaker 9 (16:05):
Down at my desk, get a pen and put out
the necessity a transfer to clay City Hill. What poppy
Cock did Bill feed you at lunch, Stretch, he didn't
feed me no Poppy cut it.
Speaker 2 (16:23):
But he can't get away with it this time.
Speaker 9 (16:25):
No matter what he told you, you can't transfer to
Clay City. You don't live in their district.
Speaker 6 (16:30):
I do now what. I use them too, but I
do now. You see, sir, I've moved in with my
aunt and she lives right near Clay City.
Speaker 10 (16:42):
Moved in with your aunt, and whose bright idea was that?
Speaker 3 (16:46):
If you excuse me, I'm gonna lie down somewhere, Miss
brook in front of a street car. I think. Don't
let me explain, mister Conklin. Stretch was sleeping in the draft.
Speaker 9 (16:58):
And I thought it was that your trouble, Miss Brooks.
Speaker 6 (17:01):
You think too much, Stretch.
Speaker 10 (17:03):
You know about this transfer yet?
Speaker 7 (17:05):
No, Sir, let us know. I'm gonna live without many,
but I'm meeting fifth Mooney after school.
Speaker 6 (17:09):
And he's gonna ask him for their permission.
Speaker 3 (17:11):
Stretch, let me ask you a question. In all the
years you've been here, mister Conklin has always treated you fairly,
hasn't he. I'll rephrase the question. In fact, i'll forget it.
You promise me that you would drop into my classroom
after school today sure.
Speaker 6 (17:28):
Miss Brooks. Let us if somebody will tell fifth Mooney to.
Speaker 3 (17:31):
Wait for me, we'll take care of bif Stretch. Now,
remember I want you to come to my classroom immediately
after school.

Well, miss Brooks, it was you who got us into this.
Speaker 14 (17:52):
Situation, and I'll get us out of it.
Speaker 3 (17:54):
And I think I can, mister Conklin, I think I've
got a plan. Supposing instead of being taken to stretches house,
this mooney were taken to my house.
Speaker 9 (18:02):
I don't understand Stretch wouldn't take him to your house.
Speaker 3 (18:05):
No, the real Stretch wouldn't, and Stretch his real parents
won't be there either. But this mooney doesn't know Stretch
from a hole in the ground?
Speaker 10 (18:12):
Does he come in? Oh, Walter Denton.
Speaker 3 (18:17):
I was just looking for Harriet night, mister Conklin shake
hands with a hole in the ground.

Papa?
Speaker 6 (21:58):
Out of here.
Speaker 10 (22:03):
He's such an affectionate little jerk, a youngster. He's always
been quite close.
Speaker 3 (22:08):
Excuse me, Daddy, but I saw your car outside and
the door was open.
Speaker 8 (22:11):
For my daughter, Harriet.
Speaker 10 (22:12):
Harriet, go away, child.
Speaker 15 (22:14):
But Danny, just a minute, I thought you said that
Stretch was your only child.
Speaker 9 (22:18):
Stre your brother, Harriet going out into the kitchen. Your
mother will explain the whole thing to you.
Speaker 10 (22:24):
Oh his mother here, stop the question. Just go in
and see it.
Speaker 3 (22:27):
It's on the table, par ype. Oh Harriet, it's so
nice to see you. Why don't you go home to
your mother?
Speaker 2 (22:39):
She did come home to our mother, Ma, But I
don't understand.
Speaker 3 (22:50):
I guess it's time we told you, Harriet. I am
your mother, and I are your father and me we've
been secretly married for sixteen years seventeen, I'm over seventeen.
I was hoping you wouldn't notice this.
Speaker 11 (23:12):
What is this all about, missus Snodgress. I demand to
know the truth.
Speaker 9 (23:15):
If it's not grown, who might as well know the
whole story, Harriet. As a poor but honest immigrant, I
entered this country illegally.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
Your mother and.
Speaker 9 (23:23):
I started out from the old Country together, but.
Speaker 3 (23:25):
I your mother couldn't make it. They shopped me at
the border. Four years later, I was snuggled into the country.
Speaker 9 (23:34):
With a group of Oriental laborers.
Speaker 3 (23:38):
Are lab don't look down your nose at me, girl,
I help build bolder damns.
Speaker 7 (23:48):
Mister Snodgress, Miss Brooks, and missus Snodgress, my mother's missus Snodgrass.
Speaker 6 (23:54):
Doorway boy, we're busy. I waited in miss Brook's classroom, like.
Speaker 11 (23:58):
She said, mister kunk ms Brooks, what is all this?
And who are you? I'm stretched Snodgrass, stretch Snodgrass?
Speaker 7 (24:06):
Did you call me?

Fifth? Mooney?
Speaker 11 (24:11):
I was when I came in here, But right now I.
Speaker 9 (24:16):
Oh, it was absurd to think that this ridiculous scheme
would work. This is the real stretch Snodgrass, mister Mooney.
If he wants to transfer, I guess there's nothing we
can do.
Speaker 8 (24:24):
To stop him.
Speaker 3 (24:25):
And after all that iodine I used at the border, but.
Speaker 7 (24:30):
I won't need no transpernome, mister Conflin, that's what I
come over to tell, Miss Brooks. I talk to the
manager of the football team just now and he said
they're getting another uniform so.
Speaker 6 (24:38):
Waller can be on the team too.
Speaker 4 (24:40):
Oh boy, that's great, Stretch Stay.
Speaker 3 (24:42):

employer and tell him that once again he has been
soundly defeated by superior brain power.

Thank you, mister content.
Speaker 6 (26:42):
Conton.
Speaker 15 (26:42):
I did get a contract from mister Brill, but if
he's going to get me into things like this all
the time, I've got a good mind not to sign it.
Speaker 11 (26:48):
Well, you'll excuse me.
Speaker 9 (26:49):
Now, Hold on there, boy, you say you haven't signed
your coaching contract with Clay City.

my place?
Speaker 10 (27:02):
There's something I'd like to.

Fine, We'll have dinner at eight.
