Plot
When a mother (voiced by Bea Benaderet impersonating Cass Daley) goes to work in a factory during World War II (see Rosie the Riveter), Porky Pig is hired to baby-sit. He quickly finds out that the baby is a violent-tempered infant. He tries to use a child psychology book to control the baby, to no avail. Eventually, the mother returns and uses the book to discipline the baby — by spanking.
