The Abbott/Niles battles

One of the regular features on the Abbott and Costello radio program was the running battle between Costello and Mrs. Niles, played by Elvia Allman. (Ken Niles was the announcer on the program; they were not really married.) Both parties got in a good many telling verbal blows on the other, with great gusto. Lots of fun.
