"How the heck did Mel Blanc maintain a straight face through this live skit???"
I was asking myself the same thing when I watched it again. Jack Benny tries so hard not to crack up, but he does early on. We used to watch his show every week. That's when TV comedy was good, and wholesome. Today this skit would be labeled racist.
