Adventures of Jerry Lewis #119

Adventures of Jerry Lewis #119 (On Sale: May 19, 1970) has a cover by Bob Oksner.

We begin with Jerry Lewis in "The Dropout Who Dropped In" by Alan Riefe and Bob Oksner. Wanting to better himself and finally get a diploma, Jerry reenrolls in high school, where he makes every teacher's life a nightmare. Some problems are caused by Jerry's lack of brain power, but many of the things he is accused of are actually the work of two other students, who have decided to make Jerry's life miserable after Jerry ruins their gag to soak the principal. In the end, Jerry inadvertently helps stop the two kids from stealing exam questions that they plan on selling to other kids. Regardless, Jerry flunks out and a month later is trying to ship an apple to his teacher in correspondence school.

Next we have Jerry Lewis in our cover-story, "The Teenie-Weenie Genie", also by Alan Riefe and Bob Oksner. While playing football in a junk yard, Jerry destroys Renfrew's football but finds a genie in a stove pipe. The genie is not very good and when Jerry asks for a million dollars the genie conjures up a wooden nickel. When he asks for a lot of diamonds, the genie gives him a deck of cards. The genie confesses that he has lost his powers and that his fiancé's family is out to get him since he backed out of the marriage he no longer feels worthy of.

Jerry moves the genie into his house and they realize he just needs his bottle back to restore his powers. Jerry and Renfrew go in search of bottles just as the genie's fiancé and family find them. A chase ensues and the genie is trapped back in his bottle by a family member who then commands the genie to send them home, which the genie does. He just doesn't go with them. Jerry got bonked on the head and Renfrew wishes that he would snap out of it.  Jerry does, but he has a tremendous headache which he wishes would go away. Renfrew realizing they have just blown two of their three wishes, tells Jerry to shut up, that all he really wanted was a new football. And so he is given one.

We end with Jerry Lewis in a one-pager called "A Smashing Good Time", by Henry Boltinoff and Bob Oksner.  Jerry is driving his car and can't remember where he is going. He doesn't need gas, he doesn't need to wash the car. As he smashes into a wall he remembers that he needed new brakes.
