Tom never exhibits a lot of emotion (other than shaking in terror or nervousness) in these cartoons. In this one, after the operator tells him she’s got the wrong number, he gulps and blinks his eyes, she winks and he rolls his eyes. Why? Because it’s a Van Beuren cartoon. It doesn’t have to make sense.
Tom and Jerry are ambulance chasers in this one. Jerry strums a banjo while they sing about accidents, broken legs, a railroad bridge, and rhyme “banana peels” with “automobiles.” Whether it’s a Gene Rodemich original, I don’t know.
