Fibber McGee & Molly - March 19, 1940 - Dog License Problem

The McGees receive a letter from the city telling them to renew their dog license or else. Trouble is, they don't own a dog.

There's an interesting historical digression in this one where the question of whether FDR will run for a third term is discussed. It's pointed out that he'd be breaking with tradition if he did. After he won a third term and then a fourth, a constitutional amendment was passed limiting presidents to two terms.

Gale Gordon appears as the mailman, in the days before his regular role as Mayor LaTrivia.
