«...I gave a show for P.G. Smith and his Marines. A lot of laughs (...) I said "I don't think you did much singing when you were in Vaudeville (...) I got the damnedest kick out on one thing in the Harvest Moon Picture, it did sound so funny hearing my name coming out on the screen all the time, and when some character said "Now Look here Jack Norworth, you can't do that" (...) I felt like talking back and saying who the hell says I can't (...) I wrote Dennis Morgan a letter and that (...) thanks to him, I'm very proud of me...».
