Sammy Davis Jr., wearing a Sitting Bull headpiece, chased Frank Sinatra across the nightclub stage waving a tomahawk and shrieking, "You call me paleface one more time, I scalp you." Milton Berle promised that a coming act would be Beverly Aadland singing, My Momma Done Sold Me, then paid tribute to Sinatra: "It's very gracious of Frank to take a night out of his sex life to be here."
