With an edited beginning that sounds like a political joke was expunged, Jolson leads with an old song that George Washington never heard, "Hello, My Baby."

After the song, Ken Carpenter helps to explore Al Jolson's hobbies and interests. It's a punny session, with a tip to Ken Carpenter's versitility. The segment concludes with "I Only Have Eyes For You."

Oscar Levant was up next, with a story of his secret dreams and stories. But for us, he performed the 2^nd Gershwin Prelude, one of his favorites, and one of mine, too.

Thinking back to his lack of a Fairy Godmother, Joan Davis makes her entrance as little Asa's personal guardian. Of course, the jokes in this section revolve around Jolson's age, voice, fondness for women, and personality. Even a few jokes about Larry Parks and Rita Hayworth creep into this segment!

Interpolated from the October 28, 1948, show is "I'll Be Seeing You." That show, which featured Dorothy Kirsten in a similar sequence, also included "Hello, My Baby." This song was the close from that show.

Back to the show at hand, we get to hear Al Jolson sing a song many of us first heard Rudy Wistler singing, while Scotty Beckett mimed, "On The Banks Of The Wabash, Far Away." Then, with a tip to the little children in the audience, Jolson sang "Mighty Lak A Rose."

Al Jolson concluded the evening's program with a song he attibuted to Paul Dresser, who wrote "Wabash," but it was written by Jack Yellen and Milton Ager, "I Wonder What's Become Of Sally."
