Home Under Construction

May 1, 1938 - This week Jack Benny's Maxwell was in a race for
old cars, the Fresno State College Hack Race. He lost to Fred
Allen's entry.


In this episode they debate wether or not Jack Benny is
considered a movie star. They mention Leo the MGM lion, movie
producers Darrel F Zanuck and Adolf Zukor, the comedy team The
Ritz Brothers, Screen gangster George Raft, Walt Disney's Silly
Symphonies and Mickey, Donald and Pluto. Plus the 1927 boxing
match known as "The Long Count".


And the great silent film comedian Harold Lloyd.
