Speaker 1 (00:00):
Craft presents the Great Guilder Sleeve.

Speaker 2 (00:14):
The Craft Cheese Company, who also bring you Bing Crosby
every Thursday Night present each week at this time Harold
Perry as the Great Guilder Sleeve written by Leonard L.

Speaker 3 (00:22):
Evanson.

Speaker 2 (00:29):
And now let's visit our friend, the Great Gilder Sleeve,
who we find covered with oil and grease, having just
finished fixing Bertie sewing machine.

Speaker 1 (00:42):
Well, your sewing machines all fixed now, Bertie, you should
hear that singer?

Speaker 4 (00:46):
Hum, oh, thank you mister. Is it all right to
use now?

Speaker 5 (00:51):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (00:51):
Yes, indeed, Bertie, go right ahead. No reason now why
you can't sew on the little sew and so that's fine.

Speaker 2 (00:58):
Now I could run up my noose on a uniform
for the mystics and bewilled in order of the daughter's
a clear patron.

Speaker 1 (01:04):
Oh yeah, what kind of a summer uniform? Oh, we
just switched from the.

Speaker 3 (01:08):
Heavy to the lightweight veil.

Speaker 4 (01:13):
Hello Bertie, Hello, say can't you get all the oil
on your hands and face? You look like you've been
playing post Office and a grease pit.

Speaker 1 (01:20):
Yeah, post office and a grease pit. Well, I never
played post Office there though, I never mind the frantic
antics of my youth. I look this way because I
just finished fixing Bertie's machine.

Speaker 3 (01:31):
Yes, nah, just put my foot on the pedal and
a wig goes.

Speaker 5 (01:35):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:35):
Couldn't have been a better job done it for real
mechanic JOm did it.

Speaker 1 (01:39):
Of course not. I'm an expert. I don't forget. I
had hundreds of them at the Gill. Just leave good
works anytime. Anytime we had a breakdown, I'd bounced right
out of my office and fix the tubble before the
motor had a chance to slow down.

Speaker 6 (01:51):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:52):
That I could take a machine like Bertie's apart and
put it together again in the dark and less time
than to take the average mechanic and broad daylight and
another belle. Oh, my goodness, A visitor mustn't see me
in this disgraceful condition. I hope there's plenty of hot water.

Speaker 4 (02:06):
Berdie, Okay, okay, I'm coming. Oh hello, miss Banks, come
right here. Thanks Bertie? Oh, my, Henny, nice is here?

Speaker 6 (02:15):
My vife?

Speaker 4 (02:16):
That ain't the snack? This uniform? I ever did see
what you supposed to be a lady, Jim. No, Bertie,
this is the Red Cross Motor Corps uniform.

Speaker 3 (02:24):
Were you supposed to do doctor thick automobiles.

Speaker 4 (02:26):
No, but we're supposed to know how to fix our
own cars.

Speaker 2 (02:30):
Well, I have to get back in the kitchen before
le Roy hollows at he's feeling hollow He's much buddy.

Speaker 4 (02:35):
Oh s I have kept you waiting, Darling? Can edn
have hurried?

Speaker 6 (02:39):
I don't think we'll be able to start the motor
mechanics course this afternoon, after all, we won't.

Speaker 4 (02:43):
Why not? Well, mister Cobb, who was supposed to show
us how to tear down a motor can't be there.

Speaker 6 (02:47):
Oh that's too bad. G it'll be almost impossible to
reach the girls and tell him not to come.

Speaker 4 (02:52):
Yeah, I don't know what we can do. Gee, why
don't you ask Uncle mort to teacher? Does he know
anything about automobile motors? For sure? He's a He can
take whole cars apart and put them together blindfolded in
the dog Why never knew that, Lee Roy? I didn't
either up until a few minutes ago. But he's fixed
up Fortie's old giluppy so that she just puts her

(03:13):
foot down on a pedal and away she goes.

Speaker 6 (03:15):
Oh, no, LeRoi, no one could repair that coffee grinder.

Speaker 4 (03:19):
Well, uncle morp did. He used to fix all the
trucks at his girdle works himself before they could even
condo or stop. Well, it sounds like your uncle can
say the day for his Marjorie. Shall we ask him? Well,
this is all news to me, but why not all
of them off?

Speaker 6 (03:38):
Yes?

Speaker 4 (03:38):

Speaker 6 (03:40):
Why?

Speaker 1 (03:40):

outfit is that outfit for?

Speaker 4 (03:52):
Why? It's the Red Cross and we.

Speaker 3 (03:55):
Need your help.

Speaker 6 (03:55):
Well, I certainly how much I did just a couple
of your hours of your time? Uncle, we'd like to

Speaker 1 (04:11):
Yeah, come come, Penny, don't be for him. We'll just
call me Uncle Moore.

Speaker 4 (04:15):
Well will your uncle Moore?

Speaker 1 (04:19):

Speaker 6 (04:26):
Oh and I don't be modest, don it'd be wonderful
for this besides the man we wanted couldn't show up.

Speaker 1 (04:32):
Oh well, I don't know.

Speaker 1 (04:37):
Oh pretty girls. Of course. If you put it that way,
I'll come ah fine, and.

Speaker 4 (04:45):
You better make your talk fairly simple. Some of our
girls don't know the difference between a hose connection and
a garter.

Speaker 1 (04:51):
Oh they don't. They Well, i'd have a hard time
telling him apart myself. Of course, that's stretching it little bit.

Speaker 4 (05:02):
Ohful, Uncle More, it's always joking. Tell a truth. I'm
not so sure about several things myself. Now take the differential.

Speaker 1 (05:10):
No, thank you. If I did, I wouldn't know what
to do with it.

Speaker 4 (05:13):
Now, be serious, Uncle Moore. He's done as if you
didn't know a thing about.

Speaker 1 (05:17):
Car I don't. But I know sewing machines from bob
and to shovel.

Speaker 4 (05:22):
Sewing machine.

Speaker 6 (05:23):
Uncle really, Marjorie, your uncle says the most amusing thing.

Speaker 1 (05:28):

stitches about sewing machines.

Oh, just no, kidder. Oh let's get going now. Oh

Uncle More, good bye road. Ye don't be late.

Goodbye girls, Leroy? What's so funny about sewing machines? Were
they giving me the needle?

Speaker 4 (05:52):
I don't know you were the one who brought them up?

Speaker 1 (05:54):
Well I did not. They asked me to come to
Red Cross headquarters and show the girls how to take
care of them, didn't.

Speaker 4 (06:08):
What's wrong, hunk?

Speaker 1 (06:09):
I don't know anything about automotives, Leroy? Why on half
of the new cars? I don't even know how to
raise the hood?

Speaker 6 (06:22):
Gee?

Speaker 4 (06:22):
Uncle more, I didn't mean to get you in this jam.

Speaker 1 (06:24):
Where are we going to find the mechanic to fix

Speaker 6 (06:32):

Speaker 4 (06:32):
No, sh bunk? Look this shop closed Saturday afternoons.

Speaker 1 (06:36):
Leaping line of beans.

Speaker 5 (06:37):
Come on, leroy, what.

Speaker 1 (06:48):
A town this is?

Speaker 3 (06:49):
So far?

Speaker 1 (06:49):
Only one mechanic who works on Saturday afternoons and he
can't speak English.

Speaker 4 (06:53):
Well, cheer up, maybe there's one here, I hope.

Speaker 1 (06:56):
So I'm getting corns on my bunions. Well, now that
I've explained the whole thing to you, mister, how about

Speaker 3 (07:10):
Oh, I ain't no mechanic.

Speaker 4 (07:12):
You're not.

Speaker 1 (07:12):
Then what are you doing in this garage wearing overalls
and carrying a wrench? Oh, I'm the plumber.

Speaker 4 (07:26):
Let's go inside. You're thirty minutes late.

Speaker 1 (07:28):
Already.

Speaker 5 (07:28):
Good.

Speaker 1 (07:29):
Maybe the girls have all gone home by now.

Speaker 4 (07:31):
No, they've played.

Speaker 1 (07:32):
Yeah, it's a old gang.

Speaker 4 (07:33):
I'm inside. Boy are they keen lookers? They look like
a bunch of magazine covers.

Speaker 7 (07:38):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (07:38):
Well this is the first time I'd rather be looking
at popular mechanics.

Speaker 4 (07:43):
Oh, come on, I will come on. Give me old line.

Speaker 1 (07:45):
Yeah, and they'll take the old line and hang me
with it.

Speaker 4 (07:48):
Well, there's march and she sees that you can't back
out now. Oh, I'll come on.

Speaker 1 (07:53):
Thank you, Marjorie. It's sorry we're late.

Speaker 4 (07:57):
Sterly Roy, I didn't know you were coming along too.
I figured if I came and listen to Uncle Moore,
i'd hear things I never knew before. Okay, Oh, last girls, girls,
here's a man who can tear a motor down and
put it back together again blindfolded, just as easily as
he can with his eyes.

Speaker 8 (08:17):
Open life, girls, I want.

Speaker 4 (08:24):
You to meet mister Throckmorton. P. Guilder sleep.

Speaker 1 (08:28):
Yes, Hello, girls, come come, don't call me mister Gildersleeve
and just call me Uncle Moore.

Speaker 4 (08:38):
And this is Missus Salisbury twitch Oll Uncle Moore.

Speaker 3 (08:41):
Oh, yes, how do you do.

Speaker 1 (08:45):
Charmed, Missus Twitchell. The pleasure is all mine.

Speaker 6 (08:48):
I dare say you're right, Missus Twitchel has been kind
of not to lend us air station wagon Uncle.

Speaker 8 (08:54):
And you're sure, mister Gildersleeve, that you're an expert in
these matters.

Speaker 1 (08:59):
Don't worry about your nine buggy, Missus twitchey. You'd be
surprised at just how much I know. If all u
sweet young things will gather around, and you too, Missus Twitchell,
I'll explain all the important features. Excuse me, hello, Judge Hooker,

(09:21):
what are you doing here?

Speaker 6 (09:21):
Oh?

Speaker 3 (09:22):
I just came down to see you in action? Guilty.

Speaker 7 (09:24):
Old hell Berdie told me where you were, and I
figured I might learn something.

Speaker 1 (09:33):
The old coat. Ladies, this is Judge Hooker, judge who
never has to lay down the law, because after he's
through with it, it lays down by itself.

Speaker 7 (09:46):
Now, now, guilty, I suppose you stop gassing and get started.

Speaker 1 (09:49):
Yes, all right, And now ladies, in studying the modern motor.
The first thing we encounter is the hood. Every car
I should have a hood, Do I make myself clear?

Speaker 4 (09:58):
Oh? Yes, uncle, mom, uncle, motor.

Speaker 1 (10:02):
That's right. We're all one big family here at Grandpa.
The hood that covers the motors. I said, Well, now
that we've covered the motor.

Speaker 7 (10:15):
Oh, wait a minute, Wait a minute, wait a minute. Call,
I suppose you tell us what goes on under the
hood when you start the motor. Uh.

Speaker 1 (10:27):
Yeah, maybe you'd like to tell the girls.

Speaker 7 (10:30):
Judge, No, no, no, no, no no, I wouldn't drop
you of the pleasure for anything.

Speaker 1 (10:34):
You just go right here, yes, all right, And now
first you touch the starter that starts the car, unless,
of course, you forget to turn on the ignition key.

Speaker 4 (10:42):
Well, suppose you're doing the key and step on the stage.
But to dad, he is dead.

Speaker 1 (10:48):
Who is that? Oh? Yes, I see you now, my dear, Well,
I'm glad you brought that up. That brings us down
to dead batteries. Now a dead battery.

Speaker 7 (10:57):
Wait a minute, wait a minute. You aren't finished with
the motor yet, In fact, you haven't stopped it.

Speaker 1 (11:03):
Well, how can I with a dead battery? Yes, now
to get back to the motor. Or, as we experts
call it, the engine. The strange thing about an engine
is that it might be missing and still be right there. Yes,
this happens when the spark plugs failed and then the

(11:38):
last of the gas is exhausted out of the exhaust.
Ef Well, that reminds me. I'm exhausted myself. Here's a
cheruncle more, thank you.

Speaker 4 (11:48):
Let's get out of here pretty soon.

Speaker 1 (11:49):
You're right. Well, if it's all clear to you now, ladies.

Speaker 7 (11:53):
Oh wait, wait, wait, I'm sure the girls have loads
and loads of questions for you.

Speaker 1 (11:57):
Yes, that's what I thought you backseat driver?

Speaker 6 (12:00):
All right, girl, Well, isn't the mufflers supposed to keep
the motorway?

Speaker 4 (12:05):
And how often do you on the stand down? If
you haven netrakita? Do you still need a radiator?

Speaker 1 (12:12):
Well? Yes and no. Those are very good questions. Girls.
It shows you were paying attention. Now, suppose we take
him up, say next week?

Speaker 7 (12:21):
Ah, let's finish him up now the afternoon.

Speaker 3 (12:24):
Is still young.

Speaker 7 (12:25):
Yes, but I'm not all relax relax. I figured out
a nice simple way for you to answer all the
girls questions.

Speaker 1 (12:33):
What's that?

Speaker 3 (12:33):
Just show them everything.

Speaker 7 (12:35):
You've been talking about by taking.

Speaker 3 (12:36):
The motor all apart.

Speaker 4 (12:38):
Why that's a splendid idea.

Speaker 1 (12:40):
Uncle more, Oh Marjorie, my own flesh and blood.

Speaker 4 (12:45):
Oh that should be very interesting, shouldn't it, Girl? I
think some of his TWITCHO.

Speaker 8 (12:50):
Well, I'm not sure. I know less about automobiles now
than I knew when I came here. It's beyond me
how anyone who looks so simple can make everything look
so complicated.

Speaker 1 (13:03):
Go ahead, yeller, you double crossing Dodo. I'd be glad
to do it, folks. Only I didn't bring any tools.

Speaker 8 (13:09):
Oh well, there's a complete set in the car, mister.

Speaker 1 (13:12):
Oh fine, too bad. I'm wearing my best clothes though,
isn't it what that suit suit?

Speaker 4 (13:19):
Here's a pair of covers, Yeah, I just found them coveralls.

Speaker 1 (13:23):
Well, isn't that just peachy? Your uncle's little helper, aren't you? Lee? Right?

Speaker 4 (13:28):
Yes, sir, there's the place over here where you can
put them on.

Speaker 1 (13:31):
Well, after such a build up, I guess I'll have
to tear down the motor. It come on, le right here, Oh,
my coach, young man, what's the big idea?

Speaker 4 (13:40):
I found an instruction book on a catalog of parts
in that lady's car. It's told me how to fix
the motor too.

Speaker 1 (13:45):
Fix. Oh that's help. Where is it?

Speaker 4 (13:47):
I hit it from back on the water cooler out
there that way? Every time he gets stuck. Just go
over and take a drink. Then you can sneak a
look at the book.

Speaker 1 (13:55):
Sneak back, and you're a bright boy, Uncle More ready,
and not from the mechanical standpoint leroy, But let's go. Well,
well here we are again, shall we begin?

Speaker 6 (14:11):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (14:11):
I see you've remove the hood, judge Hooker, ask here
are your tools?

Speaker 3 (14:14):
Gilty? I quiet?

Speaker 1 (14:15):
Girls, quiet, quiet.

Speaker 3 (14:16):
Pay attention to Uncle More as a mechanic. I bet
he's a panic.

Speaker 1 (14:22):
Well, come on, girls, don't be afraid to ask questions. No,
probably so girls? Oh what am I saying? I don't
mind the clouding a bit?

Speaker 9 (14:31):
Oh, Uncle mar what's that little round piece of machinery
where right there?

Speaker 1 (14:37):
Oh that, well that's the let me see now, and
well that's funny. I'm a bit thirsty. Excuse me while
I go get a big walk.

Speaker 4 (14:46):
Oh, given me sassinating. I'm going to ask him what
I should do about my clutch.

Speaker 9 (14:51):
Just trim your nails, honey.

Speaker 4 (15:02):
But I still don't understand why one needs both a
radiator and.

Speaker 1 (15:06):
The heater and now myews and what was that question?

Speaker 4 (15:09):
Well, I just wanted to know what this little round dinger. Sy.

Speaker 1 (15:12):
Oh, that that's the generator number four B thirty three
twenty eight am celts for eight ninety five FOB Detroit.

Speaker 7 (15:21):
Okay, thinks and smart, you'll have to take it off
before you can get the motor out yielded.

Speaker 1 (15:27):
Yeah, I knew that. Hand me the ranch leroy. Thanks. Now,
all I have to do is just a little shock,
my dear.

Speaker 10 (15:38):
I'll be all right.

Speaker 1 (15:39):
Just assume as I get another drink of water, I'll.

Speaker 4 (15:43):
Get it for you unsold.

Speaker 1 (15:44):
Never mind, I'll feel better if I get it myself.
I don't know I should be so thirsty something I
had for lunch, No doubt. I'll be right back and
dismantle the motor.

Speaker 7 (16:05):
According to my watch, it took you just two are
to take that motor apart.

Speaker 3 (16:08):
Well, Gilder's leeve, I got a handed to you.

Speaker 7 (16:10):
In all my experience, I've never seen a man do
so much work and drink so much water.

Speaker 3 (16:15):
At the same time.

Speaker 1 (16:18):
Yes, I've been to the cooler more times in a
patrol wagon.

Speaker 4 (16:24):
And I sit down on you look a little sea sick.

Speaker 1 (16:27):
It's not that leroy, it's just the tide coming in.

Speaker 4 (16:32):
Well, girls, mister Gildersleeve has certainly revealed all the mysteries
of a.

Speaker 6 (16:35):
Motor, but I still don't understand the difference between a
hat and a radiator.

Speaker 4 (16:40):
Yes, ilcome, I think you're just blendful, and I.

Speaker 1 (16:44):
Think you're thank you, my dear.

Speaker 4 (16:47):
I don't think anyone was more a maize than I was,
oh much, I.

Speaker 1 (16:50):
Know someone who was quietly roy.

Speaker 3 (16:54):
Say, girls, I've got an idea. How about you being my.

Speaker 7 (16:56):
Guest for tea and sandwiches. That was a nice little
place right around the corner.

Speaker 4 (17:00):
Oh that's very kind of you, Judge Hooker.

Speaker 1 (17:02):
Come on all right, but i'll have to wash up fers.

Speaker 8 (17:05):
Oh no, you mustn't waste any time going to tea.
Mister gill to sleeve, Why not, missus Twitchell, because you
have to put my motor back together again. I needed
to drive out of my country place later on.

Speaker 1 (17:15):
Oh yes, I forgot all about your motor anyway, I'm
so full of water I couldn't have drunk tea. Anyway,
I'll stay and help you. Uncle wore thanks me right,
hung girls, Now, I don't mind.

Speaker 3 (17:25):
Hold on Gill the old champ.

Speaker 7 (17:27):
I hope you know where to put all those parts.

Speaker 1 (17:29):
I know where everything should go, Judge, including you, Leroy.
I'm not a violent man, but someday I'm gonna play
soccer all day with that little old day soccer.

Speaker 4 (17:41):
Cheer up, uncle more. I bet you can put this
motor back together again, even.

Speaker 1 (17:45):
Faster than Oh what's that way? Oh oh, look the
armies outside of you.

Speaker 2 (17:58):
Excuse me, sir, I have brought down a detachment of
men from Fort Platt. We were told that there would
be a group of Red Cross canteen hostesses here to
meet the men.

Speaker 1 (18:06):
Oh well, I don't know where they could be. Say oh, yes,
that's what I'll do. How many soldiers have you got outside,
Captain one hundred and forty two? One hundred and forty two, splendid.
If one of our public spirited citizens just took the
girls out for snack, I'm sure he'd love to have
you join him.

Speaker 6 (18:22):
It.

Speaker 1 (18:22):
Just march your gang over to the tea shop around
the corner and ask for Judge Hooker. You'd be tickled
pink to see you.

Speaker 2 (18:36):
We'll hear from the Great Guilder sleeve again in just
a moment. But right now, I guess most men will agree.
If nothing starts the day off right like a good,
hearty breakfast. Yes, give me sizzling hot eggs with plenty
of toast, or maybe some pancakes or waffles, and man.

Speaker 1 (18:50):
Alive, I'm about ready to lick the world.

Speaker 2 (18:53):
That's why grand tasting Park Marchman deserves a mighty important
place on the breakfast table. Yes, spread wholesome Park Margarine
on waffles or pancakes or breakfast toast. You're sure to
love its delicate, appetizing flavor. And as for those breakfast eggs,
try pan frying them in Park. You'll find their tasteier.
And you like using Park because a dozen spatterers stick

(19:16):
to the pan. Yes, and Park Margarin is grand for
baking too, because, unlike bland tasteless fats, Park is a
real flavor shortening. And remember Park Margarin is not only
good tasting, it's good for you too. Yes, Wholesome Park
is a mighty nourishing energy food and every pound contains
nine thousand units of vitamin A. So right now, put

(19:39):
Park Margarin at the top of tomorrow shopping list. Remember
it's Park pr Kay, It's made by Kraft and now

(20:01):
back to Gilder's leave and Leroy, who have succeeded in
putting the motor back together again.

Speaker 1 (20:05):
I have returned home.

Speaker 4 (20:08):
More fried onions, mister Gilsleaves.

Speaker 1 (20:10):
Yeah, no, thanks, Burte. I only ate theves to get
them out of my sight. They looked like piston rings,
and I never want to look at piston ring in
the face again.

Speaker 3 (20:17):
How about you, Leroy?

Speaker 4 (20:18):
Oh I love them more. Thanks.

Speaker 1 (20:20):
Well, I think I'll go to an early movie now, Yeah,
maybe I'll go with you. Is there a hop long
cassidy playing around here any place?

Speaker 4 (20:25):
No, you've seen all the.

Speaker 1 (20:26):
Little hop alongs.

Speaker 4 (20:27):
How am I going to see an Eastern picture for
a change, No, Leroy.

Speaker 1 (20:31):
When I go to a picture show, I want to
hear a lot of shooting. It keeps me awake.

Speaker 4 (20:34):
Well, hold along, I'll be all right. I careful a
little dessert, mister gil Sie.

Speaker 1 (20:40):
Well, that depends on what you have to offer.

Speaker 11 (20:42):
Well, there's some custom of the slice of Devil's food
cake and some pine left over them yesterday.

Speaker 4 (20:47):
Or you can have some stewed fruit and ice box
cook it, or fix some fresh tappyocre pudding. And of
course there's still some of that strawberry ice cream.

Speaker 1 (20:54):
Oh fine, that'll be just right for me. You mean,
oh no, I wouldn't stuff myself with all of them.
You can skip the stewed fruit.

Speaker 10 (21:05):
Oh okay, My take a wide variety of desserts to
make a wide variety of gentlemen.

Speaker 1 (21:15):
Oh never mind, I'll get that doorbell, berdie.

Speaker 3 (21:19):
Hello, Gilds leave. Can I see you a minute?

Speaker 1 (21:21):
Sure? Take a good look.

Speaker 7 (21:25):
No, I want to talk to you, throck Martin.

Speaker 1 (21:27):
What do you want, you little snake in the bush.

Speaker 7 (21:30):
I'm a stake. Say you just stuck me with one
hundred and forty two soldiers.

Speaker 1 (21:34):
Oh, yes, the army. I'd forgotten about that. Well, what
do you want, Jed?

Speaker 3 (21:38):
I seem to loss my watch at last.

Speaker 7 (21:40):
I remember I took it out and set it down
to time you when we were at Red Cross headquarters.

Speaker 1 (21:44):
Oh did you go back there and look for it?

Speaker 7 (21:46):
Yes? I was there just now, but I couldn't find
hide her hairspring of it.

Speaker 3 (21:50):
Sure you didn't happen to pick it up.

Speaker 1 (21:52):
I'm not accustomed to picking up other people's watches, hooker.
It's a nasty habit that gets you into bad company.
You start associating with judges and people like that.

Speaker 7 (22:01):
Cut the comedy, your big clown. Now, let's try to
figure out what's happened to that watch.

Speaker 1 (22:05):
Was it valuable, I should say.

Speaker 7 (22:07):
Given to me for the grand jury after we indicted
that fake jewelry racket mob.

Speaker 1 (22:10):
Oh, left over from the investigation, No doubt, man, it
was not.

Speaker 7 (22:15):
This watch costs a couple of hundred dollars. Oh my goodness,
what's worrying?

Speaker 1 (22:20):
OK?

Speaker 7 (22:20):
I just remembered I set the watch down on the
engine block.

Speaker 1 (22:23):
That's funny. I didn't see it when we were putting
the motor back together.

Speaker 3 (22:25):
Maybe it's in one of the cylinders.

Speaker 1 (22:30):
That could have happened very easily, couldn't it. Yes? It could.

Speaker 3 (22:33):
Well, don't stand there? Do something?

Speaker 1 (22:35):
Help me? Why should I help you? You misguided, a
little income poop.

Speaker 3 (22:39):
That's no way to talk to your pal rockey.

Speaker 7 (22:41):
Come on, come on, we've got to rush down there
and tear that motor apart again and rescue that watch
before that woman drives it away.

Speaker 1 (22:47):
Oh you mean missus Salisbury Twitchell. That sounds like a
nervous hamburger.

Speaker 3 (22:53):
Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 7 (22:54):
The minute she starts that motor, my beautiful watch would
be ground up.

Speaker 3 (22:57):
In the junk. Please, Guildless leave, Please, I'm sorry I
was mean to you this afternoon.

Speaker 1 (23:02):
Well all right, I'll come down and help you, baby,
but first I'm gonna have a bit of dessert. You
care to join me in a dish custard? Judge, no,
come on, there isn't a moment loo all in good time.
She won't start that car. Your watch is safe? What
makes you think so, because after Leroy and I had
the motor all put together again, we found six or
seven parts we forgot to put in.

Speaker 7 (23:29):
Hell, they're the station wagon and it looks like the
coach is clear.

Speaker 1 (23:32):
Yes, yes, it doesn't seem to have any sign of
that old battle ax. Hello Elis' switch.

Speaker 3 (23:37):
Oh hello Gil leave.

Speaker 8 (23:39):
I've just packed some boxes to be sent overseas. I
wonder if you'd put them in the back of my car.

Speaker 1 (23:44):
Oh, Judge Hooker will only be too glad to do that,
won't you join? Oh?

Speaker 4 (23:47):
Yes, Yescory, Oh thank you, they're right in here.

Speaker 7 (23:52):
The hell I'll take Madame hoity toity out of here.
Why you dig into that motor for my water?

Speaker 1 (23:56):
Nothing doing, chum. I've been through that engine once today.
I lure the old buffet away. After all, I'm more
of a lady killer than you are.

Speaker 7 (24:02):
Yeah, they look at you and laugh and laughed themselves
to death. Okay, no, no, no, I apologize. See if
you can get her away from here and then I'll.

Speaker 1 (24:09):
Go to work. All right, I'll take her out somewhere
for a little while. But remember you're going to pay
the expenses. Yes, are the easy packages, missus Twitchell.

Speaker 8 (24:17):
Oh yes, as soon as that loaded, I'll take them
down to the express office.

Speaker 1 (24:20):
Oh.

Speaker 8 (24:20):
Incidentally, I hope i'll find my car in good condition.

Speaker 1 (24:24):
Oh you'll find it all right, I mean you'll find
it all right, Yeah, after I overhauled it. Although the
judge called something to my attention, and well, the judge
is quite an expert. He seemed to think that there
was a well sort of a Swiss movement in the motor.
Oh yeah, he thought that if you didn't mind, he'd
try to get it out.

Speaker 8 (24:43):
Oh well, all right, i'll be in town again tomorrow.

Speaker 1 (24:46):
Oh I think he'd rather have you do it. You
do it right now?

Speaker 10 (24:48):
No, yes, he feels that he could save time that way.
All right, if it won't take too long, Oh it won't,
it won't merely a minor adjustment judge, and missus Twitchell says,
it'll be all right. You mean to get to watch out, Yeah,
be sure to watch out for trouble.

Speaker 1 (25:07):
Take your time, judge, take your time. Don't worry. He'll
watch out. And while he's working, would you care to
step out for a bit of sherbet?

Speaker 3 (25:14):
Oh no, no, idea?

Speaker 1 (25:17):
What's that? What's why that? You must have very sharp ears?
I can't hear the thing. Would you like to go
out for a banana split? Missus Twitchell. I know a
place where they make the drippiest banana splitz.

Speaker 8 (25:32):
Oh no, no, I really don't.

Speaker 4 (25:35):
Now, mister guiltless leave.

Speaker 3 (25:37):
Surely you heard that?

Speaker 1 (25:38):
Oh yes, those chimes are certainly beautiful. That's worth chimes?

Speaker 4 (25:44):
Those is my car? What's he doing to it?

Speaker 1 (25:48):
I don't worry, missus Switchell. He just tuning it up.

Speaker 8 (25:53):
It sounds like wheeling steelmakers tuning up.

Speaker 1 (25:57):
Now, just poach yourself, my dear. The judge knows what
he's doing, and say, I know what you need. You
do a nice big bowl of chilik and Connie come
come its Twitchell. I know a place where they serve
the house Chilian tower with all the beans and onions
you want z own him free.

Speaker 7 (26:19):
All the concerned ding gang Foo pieces of machinery I
ever had the misfortune to get up.

Speaker 1 (26:24):
Oh hello Jedgie. Wow, you certainly declared total war on
that motor. It's all out.

Speaker 3 (26:31):
Find the watch.

Speaker 7 (26:32):
No, and I've done everything, even strained the oil.

Speaker 1 (26:36):
Say where's missus Twitchell? I left hurt the movies. I
sneaked out while she wasn't looking.

Speaker 3 (26:39):
But you were supposed to stick with her.

Speaker 1 (26:41):
Well, I'd have done it too, if hop Along castile
he was only there to help me.

Speaker 3 (26:43):
Oh what's hop Along Cassidy got to do with it?

Speaker 1 (26:45):
He keeps me awake. Anyhow, It's after ten and she'll
be back pretty soon. And brother, if that car isn't
all on one piece, you won't be either.

Speaker 7 (26:52):
Oh. When I look at all these parts scattered from
one wall to the other, I don't think I'll ever
get it back together again.

Speaker 3 (26:58):
Oh come on, help me, won't you give us?

Speaker 4 (27:00):
Leave?

Speaker 1 (27:00):
Well, I'll tell you what I'll do, Judge, I'll give
you just as much help as you gave me this afternoon.

Speaker 7 (27:04):
No no, no, no, no, no no no, that isn't fair.

Speaker 1 (27:07):
You bet it isn't. Oh the pretty girls have gone home.

Speaker 7 (27:11):
Okay, I'll do it myself. I always knew you turn
out to be a fair weather friend.

Speaker 4 (27:15):
Well let's rain it god, Judge Hooker, say, Bernie told
me you were here, so I hurried over just as
soon as I.
