doesn't get lost and we get home. We need it
to get Polly back as a palm ticket.
Speaker 2 (04:17):
She'll be fed and well cared for. That's the law.

Give me a tony at the same time.
Speaker 2 (19:00):
Sound a little like Andy Devine. I want to show
George I'm working good, very dear.
Speaker 17 (19:09):
Isn't it a shame that you're coming east from the
same day. Your uncle Lou has to leave on a trip.
If your trains passed and you wave at him, and
two hands waved back. One belongs to.
Speaker 7 (19:18):
The deputy sheriff.
Speaker 2 (19:25):
Oh in again.
Speaker 17 (19:28):
This time your uncle Lou was innocent.
Speaker 2 (19:30):
Oh, sure, it seems.
Speaker 17 (19:31):
Last Tuesday at midnight he broke into the First National Bank.
As they stood there in front of the vault with
a blow torch in one hand and a bottom of
natural gliceran and the others. Two policemen grabbed him. They
wouldn't believe it was making a deposit.
Speaker 2 (19:54):
Oh, that's a tough break for the kid.
Speaker 17 (19:58):
When they brought him to cart Uncle pleted his own
case and was acquitted of the charges. However, they gave
him ten years because during the trial he had his
car park in front of fire Hyde.
Speaker 2 (20:11):
I should have gone on a bicycle. He'd be a
free man today.
Speaker 17 (20:15):
But Mary, I want you to know that when your
uncle arrives in Alphacaz, he won't be an ordinary prisoner.
Speaker 9 (20:20):
They've given him an unlisted number.
Speaker 17 (20:24):
So much for Uncle Lloyd, So much for Okay, I
stopped reading over my shoulders.
Speaker 7 (20:29):
Well, I thought I saw something about your sister babe.
Speaker 10 (20:31):
Oh yeah, kay, it's already toe.
Speaker 17 (20:32):

babe is going to get married to some drummer named Sammy.
Speaker 16 (20:48):
No.
Speaker 17 (20:50):
I don't know how they've met him, but she insists
on me calling her lady Ashley.
Speaker 2 (20:58):
Well, i'll be dumb. Is that all married?
Speaker 17 (21:02):

No, a month you're gonna ask me something?
Speaker 7 (21:12):
What is it?
Speaker 2 (21:13):
Well?
Speaker 17 (21:13):
How much does it cost your ride in a Tassi
from Beverly Hills to the Union station?
Speaker 2 (21:18):
Isn't that funny?
Speaker 1 (21:19):
I was curious too, so I checked with the company
and it costs a dollar and eighty five cents.
Speaker 2 (21:25):
Yes, even itemize it for me.
Speaker 7 (21:27):
See, in order to operate a cab over that distance,
they figure it this way.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
Gas thirty two cents, oil six cents, wear and tear
on tires nine stents, general repairs twelve cents, insurance twenty
nine cents, leaving a total of ninety seven cents, which
goes to the man behind the wheel.
Speaker 7 (21:44):
I wondered why you were driving, Hey, Cabby, how do you.

Speaker 17 (22:16):
What'd you stop for?
Speaker 6 (22:17):
Mary?
Speaker 7 (22:17):
As much as I like to travel, I just hate
to walk into this station. Everybody who works in there
drives me crazy. That train announcer, the man behind the
magazine counter, the ticket agent, everybody.
Speaker 17 (22:28):
Well, Jack, nobody else seems to have any trouble. It
could be your fall.
Speaker 2 (22:32):
How can it be my fall? I never do anything
but ask some straight questions.
Speaker 17 (22:36):
Well, let's go in and get it over with, all right, Well,
go on, Jack, go validate the ticket.
Speaker 2 (22:45):

Speaker 9 (16:50):
Yes, mister Benny.
Speaker 2 (16:51):
Good, I'll see you on the train. Goodbye, goodbye.
Speaker 9 (16:53):
Oh, mister Benny, what if you bring the parrot? Cut

Speaker 2 (17:03):
Look, I'm not bringing the parrots and cut yours.
Speaker 4 (17:09):
I will I will go.
Speaker 2 (17:10):
By Rochester whilst the cab is waving off. Oh well
then Rochester, you take care of the luggage.
Speaker 7 (17:16):
I'm going to take the cab and pick up miss Livingston.
Well Mary, we're all most of the station and no
time at all will be New York bombs.
Speaker 17 (17:33):
Yeah, say Jack, I'm gonna live at the Sherry Netherlands.
Where are you going to stay in New York?
Speaker 2 (17:38):
The usual place? The Acme Plaza Hotel?
Speaker 17 (17:41):
Oh, Jack, not that awful joint.
Speaker 2 (17:44):
Oh it isn't so bad, Mary, Now that they put
in a heating system.
Speaker 17 (17:48):
Thanks some heating system. You step into the lobby and
the clerk hitching the face with.
Speaker 9 (17:52):
A hot towel.
Speaker 7 (17:54):
That towel comes from the waldorf Astoria, and that's class.
Speaker 2 (18:03):
They marry. When we get to New York, are you
going over to visit your folks?
Speaker 6 (18:06):
Oh?
Speaker 17 (18:06):
I sure am. As a matter of fact, I received
a letter from them this morning.
Speaker 7 (18:10):
Your mother and father? Well, what do the ichabod and
mister told of playing field?
Speaker 17 (18:17):
I've got the letter right here in my purse.
Speaker 7 (18:19):
You got a cold too, it is, go ahead and
read it, okay, my darling daughter Mary.
Speaker 17 (18:27):
I would like to make this letter a lot more personal,
but your father's leaning over my shoulders. I would tell
him to go away, But this is a cold night,
and it feels good when he breathes down the back
of my merr.
Speaker 9 (18:40):
Why does he try a.
Speaker 2 (18:41):
Hot towel from the wall?
Speaker 6 (18:43):
Off?
Speaker 2 (18:43):
A story?
Speaker 6 (18:46):
Too bad?
Speaker 17 (18:46):
I didn't think about writing this letter New Year's Eve
on that night. Your father's breath could have kept me warm.
Give me a tony at the same time.
Speaker 2 (19:00):
Sound a little like Andy Devine. I want to show
George I'm working good, very dear.
Speaker 17 (19:09):
Isn't it a shame that you're coming east from the
same day. Your uncle Lou has to leave on a trip.
If your trains passed and you wave at him, and
two hands waved back. One belongs to.
Speaker 7 (19:18):
The deputy sheriff.
Speaker 2 (19:25):
Oh in again.
Speaker 17 (19:28):
This time your uncle Lou was innocent.
Speaker 2 (19:30):
Oh, sure, it seems.
Speaker 17 (19:31):
Last Tuesday at midnight he broke into the First National Bank.
As they stood there in front of the vault with
a blow torch in one hand and a bottom of
natural gliceran and the others. Two policemen grabbed him. They
wouldn't believe it was making a deposit.
Speaker 2 (19:54):
Oh, that's a tough break for the kid.
Speaker 17 (19:58):
When they brought him to cart Uncle pleted his own
case and was acquitted of the charges. However, they gave
him ten years because during the trial he had his
car park in front of fire Hyde.
Speaker 2 (20:11):
I should have gone on a bicycle. He'd be a
free man today.
Speaker 17 (20:15):
But Mary, I want you to know that when your
uncle arrives in Alphacaz, he won't be an ordinary prisoner.
Speaker 9 (20:20):
They've given him an unlisted number.
Speaker 17 (20:24):
So much for Uncle Lloyd, So much for Okay, I
stopped reading over my shoulders.
Speaker 7 (20:29):
Well, I thought I saw something about your sister babe.
Speaker 10 (20:31):
Oh yeah, kay, it's already toe.
Speaker 17 (20:32):
Mary. Here's the most exciting news of all. Your sister
babe is going to get married to some drummer named Sammy.
Speaker 16 (20:48):
No.
Speaker 17 (20:50):
I don't know how they've met him, but she insists
on me calling her lady Ashley.
Speaker 2 (20:58):
Well, i'll be dumb. Is that all married?
Speaker 17 (21:02):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (21:03):
Well, we'll be at the station pretty soon. Yeah.
Speaker 17 (21:06):

Speaker 16 (21:08):
Mon?
Speaker 6 (21:08):
What is it?
Speaker 1 (21:09):
Mary?
Speaker 6 (21:09):
No?
Speaker 2 (21:10):
No, a month you're gonna ask me something?
Speaker 7 (21:12):
What is it?
Speaker 2 (21:13):
Well?
Speaker 17 (21:13):
How much does it cost your ride in a Tassi
from Beverly Hills to the Union station?
Speaker 2 (21:18):
Isn't that funny?
Speaker 1 (21:19):
I was curious too, so I checked with the company
and it costs a dollar and eighty five cents.
Speaker 2 (21:25):
Yes, even itemize it for me.
Speaker 7 (21:27):
See, in order to operate a cab over that distance,
they figure it this way.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
Gas thirty two cents, oil six cents, wear and tear
on tires nine stents, general repairs twelve cents, insurance twenty
nine cents, leaving a total of ninety seven cents, which
goes to the man behind the wheel.
Speaker 7 (21:44):
I wondered why you were driving, Hey, Cabby, how do you.
Speaker 9 (21:55):
Like the way up?
Speaker 2 (21:56):

Speaker 6 (22:17):

Speaker 7 (22:17):
As much as I like to travel, I just hate
to walk into this station. Everybody who works in there
drives me crazy. That train announcer, the man behind the
magazine counter, the ticket agent, everybody.
Speaker 17 (22:28):
Well, Jack, nobody else seems to have any trouble. It
could be your fall.
Speaker 2 (22:32):
How can it be my fall? I never do anything
but ask some straight questions.
Speaker 17 (22:36):
