The George Burns and Gracie Allen Show1950

Mr. Boardman:
When he joined the Boy Scouts, I became Scoutmaster to the troupe in which he belonged. Oh, I shared many happy moments with Jim and the other lads.

Gracie Allen:
Oh, it must have been fun!

Mr. Boardman:
Yes, it was. I taught them how to build campfires, how to boil meat on a stick and how to bake potatoes in their skins.

Gracie Allen:
I hope it was a big campfire.

Mr. Boardman:
Why?

Gracie Allen:
Well, otherwise the boys might have caught cold, sitting around with nothing on, waiting for the meat and potatoes to be cooked.

Mr. Boardman:
No, I meant they were in their jackets.

Gracie Allen:
Well, they could have caught cold from here down too, you know!

Blanche Morton:
Oh no, no, honey, the baked potatoes were in their jackets.

Gracie Allen:
Well, alright, that kept their jackets warm, but from here down they were still in trouble!

Mr. Boardman:
Mrs. Burns, the jackets were on the potatoes.

Gracie Allen:
Oh. Then the boys were cold from here up too. What kind of a Scoutmaster were you?
