Summary: Playlist: Hosted by bandleader, Fred Waring. Fred's band, the Pennsylvanians sing, Buckle Down Windsocky. Joe E Lewis is on hand to joke around about matters of love. He also sings, Sam the Sailor. Sportscaster, Paul Douglas, introduces Talulah Bankhead who presents a dramatic and motivational oration to the overseas troops about baseball. The Pennsylvanians help with a sketch that might take place if a variety of radio programs were switched through by using a pushbutton tuner. It all adds up to comic affect.
