Talking We come along on Saturday morning......

Hi,

Did anyone else go to the Odeon on a Saturday morning in the early 50's. As you came out of the main doors of the cinema onto Broadway, over the road was a green hording which was there for years and years. On it was some writing, dawbed in white paint and I can't remember the whole sentence. Perhaps someone can fill in the blank for me. It said:-

"Our sons must not die for...........................................in America"

One thing I do remember, however, are the words to the song we used to sing before the commencement of the picture show. I wonder how many of you out there sang along to this:

We come along on Saturday morning,
Greeting everybody with a smile,
We come along on Saturday morning,
Knowing it's well worthwhile,
As members of the Odeon club,
We all intend to be,
Good citizens when we grow up,
And champions of the free,
We come along on Saturday morning,
Greeting everybody with a smile, smile, smile,
Greeting everybody with a smile.
