Two score and ten years ago, our forefathers made their way west from Pasadena into what is now Beverly Hills.

And they built the first crude 40 and 50 room mansions, some of which still stand.

These brave people were seeking freedom in the wide open spaces.

Ladies and gentlemen, are you listening on the radio?

Let me explain that the commotion and laughter is being caused by a truck full of disreputable vagrants.

And here they come again.

They circle the stand.

Somehow this motley collection of tramps made their way inside the city limits of Beverly Hills, careen past our speaker's platform, obviously intoxicated.

Please!

Don't worry, Mr. Drysdale.

The police will have those drunks under arrest in no time.

This is Mr. Clampett, my guest of honor.

We return you now to our studios for a brief interlude of recorded music.

Jed, I thought you said about 10,000 people was going to be here to help raise this bank.

That's what Miss Jane said they was counting on.

Well, all but about 100 of them changed their minds.

Well, don't worry about that, Granny.

We raised some mighty fine barns, but less than that.

Who's this goomer coming?

We're back on the air again, ladies and gentlemen, from the site of the New Commerce Bank.
