BOB HOPE & BING CROSBY REUNION at Eisenhower Medical Center benefit performance 1970 w JOHNNY CARSON

Bing Crosby and Bob Hope, introduced by Johnny Carson, perform a medley of each other’s hits and duet on “Put it There, Pal” from “Road to Utopia”.

Some comments below refer to my original description, in which I stated I had no idea what this was clip was from, only that it was a hospital benefit, probably from mid to late circa 1970 (based on Carson's joke about David Eisenhower and the naval reserve). Thanks to viewer Jack Daugherty for enlightening me (I wasn't far off!):

"This was a portion of a "Bob Hope Show" broadcast on February 16, 1970 on NBC. It was a fundraiser held at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel in NYC, to raise funds for the construction of the Eisenhower Medical Center in Rancho Mirage CA. Other performers included Ray Bolger (singing "Once in Love with Mamie" for Mamie Eisenhower, who was in attendance), Raquel Welch, Johnny Cash and the West Point Choir. More than 2 million dollars was raised during the evening and the main hospital opened in November, 1971. Bob and Delores Hope donated the original 80 acres that the hospital was built on and were fundraisers for the hospital for over 30 years."

By the way, Carson mentions that the price to dine that night was $1,000 a plate. In July 2020 dollars, that's $6,816.29.
