Storyline
In recapping the presentation of the "If I Only Had the Nerve/We're Off To See The Wizard" musical number, host George Murphy hopes that it will bring back fond memories for adults who have seen The Wizard of Oz, and will encourage children who haven't seen the movie to see it. He is appropriately in the MGM trophy room to introduce the short The Story of Alfred Nobel. He is visited by young Leo, who wants George to showcase his friends Screwball Squirrel and Meathhead as they duke it out in animated short Screwball Squirrel. And he visits with Gene Kelly and Cyd Charisse on the set of It's Always Fair Weather. Gene is featured in the "I Like Myself" roller skating musical number from the movie. Written by Huggo
