39-11-21 Smelly Clark Solicits Gifts

STARRING: BERNARDINE FLYNN AND BILL IDELSON

Rush seems envious of Smelly Clark, who wrote 24 letters to distant relatives and people he barely knew, with the subversive reasoning that perhaps a few of them would send him a Christmas present.

Smelly also has another racket going that will allow people to think he is buying them a gift yet he has no plans to do so.
________________________
While Rush tells his mom he would never pull such stunts, you get the feeling that this is exactly what he would like to do. After all, what real harm is there in writing a few polite letters?

Vic is at the lodge so again, we don't get to hear his ideas of Smelly's schemes.

Trivia:

+ Rush thinks he can receive 20 gifts at Christmas.

+ Rush says Smelly may receive as many as 220 Christmas presents.

+ Mis' Dover is mentioned for the first time. She's "leaner these days."

Rush 'reads' an example of one of Smelly's letters: {{{HEAR}}}
