0:00to cover the lead. We're here to do that. But now she can't use the dress for the recital and of course she blames you for the whole thing. Andy. Well, you blame me for it, huh? Yeah, what's that? Well, first of all, she said that you are teacher's pet. Well, one thing I paid that teacher $21. I ought to get a little petting for that. That's mood Mrs. Van Poetard, unpaid. You know that teacher can't live on IOU. Well, boys, some things you know goes wrong and you can't do nothing about them. Well, I will be glad when this singing is over because it is about to drive me out of my own home. Well, don't forget we got a practice. People complain about my singing. Well, yeah, there's been some complaints, yeah. I have heard come, come, I love you only till I'm about to jump out of a window. Well, I don't sing that much. I vulgarize. Hey, I, oh, you, whoa.

1:08Yeah, well, that is the thing. I know that the fellows are talking about in the newest paper, you know. Mrs. Van Poetard said that she will ruin her voice. Well, how about her ruining my voice? She got me deaf and one ear now. Besides, she sings on. Yeah, well, tell me just when do you think the recital is going to be? Well, Mrs. Van Poetard talked to the teacher a while ago. And the teacher thought that she would tell everybody. But the singers a little ahead of time and not tell them till a few minutes before the recital happens so that they won't have time to get scared. Scared, I ain't scared, I'll tell you that. I'll sing in front of anybody. Be very funny if you see me and calling it all. I think they got a Janet end. All right, all right. Be funny now. Be funny. I'll show you. Come in, son. What y'all doing here? Hey, oh, Amos. Hey, well, we just talking to Andy here.

2:09Well, he must end the claims that after all the reason his throat closed up for him and all that stuff that he claims that he didn't have the buck fever. And that wasn't a trouble with his throat. Well, those things that I got the buck fever. Yeah, well, I've got a reason to come over here. I just talked to your singing teacher. Just a minute ago, I just left there. And she says that she is going ahead with the recital tonight. And Andy, you has got to sing. Well, that's news. Yeah, well, going ahead with it, Amos. Well, what do you think of it, Andy? Well, I was doing the best I could. Oh, no, no, that's all right. Take it easy. I was just fooling. Now, there's a fella that's really got a throat, ain't it? Yeah, them buck fever germs just laying in your throat. They're waiting to hear something. Come on, son. Unlack yourself. I was just kidding. To many, many families, soup means Campbell's tomato soup.

3:10So if it's a favorite at your house, too, won't you plan to have it again soon? And may I remind you that many people enjoy Campbell's tomato soup served as a tangy sauce. It's condensed, you know? Double strength and double rich and keen tomato flavor. So it's ready to serve. Just heat it as it comes from the can and pour it over meatloaf, croquettes, or leftovers. It gives them a zippy tomato flavor. Men and youngsters both like. Many women keep extra cans of Campbell's tomato soup on hand, to serve as a sauce as well as a soup. Don't you want to put it on your grocery list now?

4:43Emerson and the impersonal return to you tomorrow at the same hour. This is Bill Hay, speaking for Campbell's tomato soup, bidding you all good night. Tomorrow meets today with a sunny glass of tomato juice, but make sure it's Campbell's. Campbell's canning process retains the fresh tomato flavor that never varies can to can. Tomorrow turn to Campbell's tomato juice, a better drink at breakfast, a grand drink anytime. This is the Columbia Broadcasting System.

8:07You know, the way things happen to me, I sometimes wish I'd lived a long time ago instead of now. Things were different then. It was simpler, I guess I mean. And there were a lot of things you didn't have to worry about. Now, now take divorce, for instance. Something happened one day in my family, it just about floored me, and finally I decided to talk to my sister Nancy about it. I went up to her room that night and I said, come in. I want to talk with you Nancy. For goodness' sake Richard, where is the body? What body? You sound as if you had it buried somewhere. Oh no, this is serious Nancy. Sit down. Not on the bed Richard, please, you must sit all up. Sit over there, why don't you? You won't mind if I finish doing my nails, I've been trying to get at it all day. Nancy, what do you think of divorce? Divorce? Yeah. Well this isn't funny either. You know Richard. Well you soon have to make up your mind. I'll tell you that. What are you talking about? Mom and dad are going to get a divorce. Richard, you're crazy.

9:09Oh no, I'm not. See where were you this afternoon? Her mother asked me to go out to press its farm to get the butter and egg. Well listen, I came home from school early today, and when I opened the front door I heard mom talking to somebody in the living room. I was just going in there when I heard something that just about knocked me over. You mean mother was talking to a man? And it was somebody she knew before she was married to dad because she said something about stuff that happened when they were kids. Richard, just because some old friend of mother's drops in the sea. You didn't hear the rest of it. The man said, I'll never forget how jealous Walter was. And then mom kind of laughed. Was that all? No it wasn't. The man said, I never thought I'd come to this, calling on a woman behind her husband's back. Now how do you believe me Nancy? What do I? What do you think she said then? She said, you'd better go before Richard comes home from school. I don't want him to know you were here and he'd be sure to tell Walter. Richard? Well she did. And then he said he'd drop in to see dad tomorrow and pretend he just got into town.

10:11How do you like that? I don't know what to think. Well I do. I think mother is at the dangerous age. You know like that picture we saw the other night. Well she's still kind of young isn't she? And you know yourself dad never sends her flowers or anything. Don't be silly dad. It's crazy about mother. Now listen Richard, if I were you I wouldn't say a word about this to anybody. Well I'm certainly not going to sit around while the family falls to pieces. I'm going to do something. What for instance? Well, I don't know exactly, but for a genancy I thought you'd help me think of something. We can't say anything unless mother does Richard. We're not supposed to know it. She didn't say anything to you about that guy did she? No she didn't. There you see. Well I'll tell you this much Nancy. You can sit there and not say anything if you want to. But if I can think of something to do I'm going to do it.

11:17Hello Richard. Hi dad. Can I see you for a minute? Well here it is. Miss Fenton, get the plans of the Austin House and bring them in about 10 minutes with you. Come in son, come in. No football practice this afternoon. Oh all right. I got through early yesterday. I thought I might kind of wait around the home with you. All right. I won't be leaving for an hour more though. Is that all you want to see me about? Well yeah. Oh well I thought we might stop at the floor so on the way home and take mothers and flowers. You might take them I mean. What's that? Yeah. It's not some kind of an anniversary isn't it? Uh-uh. I just thought if you got a corsage and maybe took her out dancing somewhere tonight it might kind of whoa, break them or not. Say what's got into you anyway Richard? What do you think we are a couple of jitter bugs or whatever you call them? Of course not.

12:17But I'll get mother get a big kick out of going someplace to dance. Yeah. Why don't you ask her to tonight? Did she say anything to you about this nonsense? Oh no dad you know how mother is but do you realize that you and she are at the dangerous age? What age is that? Well the age where if you kind of take each other for granted well somebody else might come along or something. Yes I saw a movie just the other night where two. Oh I see. I thought it was funny you'd stop in just to walk home from the office with me. Well you can't blame me for not wanting us to let it. You're mother and me worry about that will you Richard? I'm pretty busy this afternoon and you'd better go on home. Well okay if you say so dad. I only hope you don't wake up someday and find out it's too late. Oh Helen.

13:23I'm in the kitchen Walter. I'm coming here William. Just a minute. I'm rolling chops and they have to be watched. What is it? I can't man say ten to them. Yeah why is. Nancy don't let the chops burn dear I'll be there in a minute. All right my life. Helen do you know what Richard's got in his head now? I know he's been up in his room ever since he came home. He stopped into the office this afternoon. All full of some notion about you and I needing to go to a dance tonight for a change. Why? What's he driving at? Well I haven't the faintest idea. Sounds if I didn't start bringing home flowers for you to wear I'd wake up someday and find out it was too late. Oh good. You aren't sick how you're Helen. He didn't mean that to me. Certainly not Walter. The way he talked I was just about ready to believe you had an old bow on the string. Well he didn't know I would be right. That would be funny wouldn't it? Hey. What's the matter with you Helen? Nothing Walter. Nothing. I've got to get back and see about dinner. Oh no wait a minute. Nancy knows how to get dinner.

14:23You'd just send and Richard didn't know something. What was it? Nothing that amounts to anything Walter. My goodness the way you're acting. You'd think I'd rob the bank. I don't know what about the way you're acting. You're trying to keep something from me and I want to know what it is. I'm not going to stand here and be cross examined like a criminal water powder. Oh Helen. I'm sorry dear I didn't mean to lose my temperance only that I... Mother. I guess I might as well give you this letter. Thank you Richard. Oh. It was in the mailbox when I came home. I thought at first I wouldn't give it to you but then I realized that wouldn't be right. It's from somebody that's staying at the hotel. Yes I see it is Richard. Really? I can't stand here talking in a long time. Are you going to open the letter mother? No dear. Not now. I'll read it later. Oh I suppose you already know what's in it do you? Yes Walter. Yes I do. So there was something in all that time he wrote Richard was giving me.

15:23Mother, dad. Come on to dinner. Everything's on the dinner. There'll be no dinner eaten in this house tonight until I get to the bottom of this. Richard I told you not to say anything. Oh you're in it too Nancy. Oh we are not dad. Nancy and I don't know a thing about it except that that fella came here yesterday. Yesterday and I don't think you don't know what you're talking about. Gosh mom you don't realize what it means to have your father and mother get a divorce. What? Divorce. Helen who is this fella that's been coming around here behind my back? That's just what he said dad. Who said? Helen wouldn't you tell me who this man is? Oh why? I might have known I couldn't keep anything from you. Every time I'd try to plan a surprise at all. Oh mom no please don't cry. Why couldn't you keep still Richard? I knew something like this would happen. Never mind Nancy. It's alright. I don't know how you found out about Harry Richard. Harry who? Harry Minnick. You know him water. Harry Minnick hasn't been in this town for 15 years. Have you been writing to him all this time? Trying to tell you.

16:23You know he was with that book publishing company for so long. Yes. Well they finally went out of business and for Harry was out of a job. So you went to work as a book salesman. He travels around the country and takes orders from him. But mom he certainly wasn't talking about books to you yesterday. I heard you tell him he'd better go away before I got home because I tell that he was here. Did you Helen? Of course I did. Well let's find out how you do. Well don't you see Walter? When we had all that trouble about Eleanor Murray's birthday present last Sunday. I decided I'd get your birthday present early this year. So when Harry called me up I had him come over. And I ordered that set of technical books you've been talking about for the last year. Pardon?

18:04I'm going to go to hell! I'm going to go to hell! I'm going to go! The jungle tree. The jungle tree.
