A n in teacher’s cape and mortarboard stands beside a nckboard with ‘ETa Potato Sticks’ written on. He flexes a cane as he addresses the camera: “You know there are many kinds of sticks. His voice continues over matching footage. “There are hockey sticks. There are pogo sticks. And, of course, there are dynamite sticks”. A cartoon ‘Boom’ drawing. The teacher again seen beside the blackboard and delving into a packet: “But there is only one crunchy, delicious, ETA Potato Stick. Mmm delicious. And they’re great to share.” Three hockey players snack from an ETA packet . Concludes with an ETA Potato Sticks packet onscreen with accompanying text: “You Can’t Beat Them”. On the packet itself this is rendered as “You Can’t Beat ‘Em” which is how the voiceover concludes.
