“Cut the Clowning!”

Abbott and Costello find themselves caught up with a circus gang stealing camels in the desert, leading to a chaotic chase sequence involving runaway camels and the bumbling duo narrowly escaping on a desert donkey. After crashing into a nearby circus, Abbott and Costello inadvertently prove themselves as circus performers, ultimately winning the approval of the circus owner and earning romantic attention from an acrobat. The issue also includes a text feature titled "Canvasback Costello" by Bud Abbott, which humorously recounts Costello's purported athletic background as a boxer and referee.
