Like when I lost on 'how many peanuts are there in this window?' Well, that doubled my chances on the 'you fill in the missing words' contest.
8 seconds sound clip from the Christmas in July (1944) classic radio play.
You can hear this line at 00:06:01 in the radio play.

- Did you really think you were going to win it Jimmy?
- I haven't lost it yet, have I?
- How many contests have you lost?

- Well that's what makes it such a cinch this time!
- Can't you just see it over there on Broadway? A great big electric sign...
