Is... Quiet, please. The American Broadcasting Company presents Quiet, Please, which is written and directed by Willis Cooper and which features Ernest Chappell.
Quiet, Please for today is called Valentine. The little towns, I never see them anymore. Pekin, Delavan, Bloomington, Galesburg, Lewiston, all the little towns above the river with the cobblestones going down to the steamboat landings. The little towns under the hills and the shocks of corn standing lonely and snow covered.
Like the teepees of old Chibonas people, the good Indians that saved the many white men's lives in the old days. There's a red brick Baptist church, I remember, and a courthouse with tall limestone pillars, the portico that looks like a disreputable ancient Greek temple. And I can only think of them and remember them, for I never go far away from here.
That was the opening. The rest of the episode (27 min) is in the player: every word clickable, with translation, saved words and flashcards.
