Susquehanna Hat Company routine, with Bud Abbott and Lou Costello, taken from "In Society" This is a classic vaudeville routine, and highly popular with the fans of Bud Abbott and Lou Costello. During the filming of In Society, Lou wanted to include this routine in the movie. However, because the movie was already on a tight shooting schedule, since Universal Pictures wanted to release this film before MGM's Abbott and Costello movie "Lost in a Harem," the producers refused. Lou was unwilling to give up on the idea, so he filmed and directed this segment himself. The routine involves Abbott and Costello helping out a friend, Derby Dan, owner of a hat shop, by delivering some hats to the Susquehanna Hat Company on Bagel Street (later, when doing the same routine on the Abbott and Costello television show, it was changed to Fleugel Street).
