Comments left:	From the daytime TV vault, another Bert Lahr commercial for Lay's. He plays both George Washington (crossing the Delaware) and a British counterpart, who has confiscated all the Lay's chips. Washington uses diversionary tactics to retrieve his beloved Lay's. This aired during the teen-oriented soap opera, "Never Too Young," on ABC (1/24/66). Other sponsors include Borden's Dutch chocolate milk, Breeze detergent (with free towel inside box), Contac cold capsules and Rice A Roni. Network promos include "Combat!" with Vic Morrow. Also, "Batman" with Neil Hamilton, "Gidget" and "Patty Duke Show." The teen soap, "Never Too Young," was better than most. However, high school kids spent more after-school time in malt shops rather than be glued to the tube. The perception among teens was that soap operas were for stay-at home housewives only, resulting in subpar ratings for "NTY." When "Dark Shadows" took over the 3PM slot, kids were drawn by the occult feel, especially when Barnabas and Quentin made the scene.
