Jack Benny (NBC) Goodbye 1941. 411228

Jack Benny and Mary Livingstone on the set of their radio show in 1942.

Introducing that man who gave up partying, but Jack complains that Don is just ungrateful. Mary enters to see if Jack can tell what’s new about her. Dennis has a problem when he has swallowed his girlfriends ear ring. Did he have fun at Jacks party? Mary reads the social page to tell all about the fancy affair.

Before Dennis can do his song, there’s a knock at the door. His song gets snipped.

Phil enters with his own arrangements. Will he let Jack join him with his violin? Rochester phones in to ask for time off on New Years Eve. Phil and Mary sing a duet, How About You? Jack’s special violin addition to the second chorus gets snipped.

Jack plays the old yeaer while Mary is columbia. The old year packs his suitcase, and comments about the busy year. Don enters as Texas to show off his new aierfields. What about the new daughter Hawaii who was bothered by some Japs? The old yeaer packs in some hit tunes, and remarks on world leaders. Phil is uncle Sam, and is excitable over the doings in Manila. The old year offers some final tips as the new year arrives.
