Speaker 1 (00:00):
September twenty eighth, Lux Radio Theater presents Wallace Berry in
(00:15):
The Photocrats.
Speaker 2 (00:27):
Nuts Presents Hollywood. Our starves Wallace Berry, Clara Kimball, Young,
Marjorie Rambo, Cecilia Parker, and Eric Lindon. Our guests Victor Young,
Walt Disney, Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck and Carol an Berry.
Our musical director Lewis Silvers, all brought to you under
the direction of Hollywood renowned producer mister cecil B.
Speaker 3 (00:49):
De Mille.
Speaker 2 (00:50):
Tonight, we celebrate the one hundredth broadcast of the Lux
Radio Theater, and many of Hollywood's notables are here to
observe the occasion with us. Among those in our audience,
I see Madam Schumann, Height, Carmel Myers, Sorry, Maritza and
Denny Baker. And to all our listeners, a hearty welcome
from Lux. Before turning the microphone over to mister Demill,
(01:20):
may I remind you of just two of the many
good reasons why Lux toilet soap is so popular the
world over. First, Lucks toilet soap guards against cosmetic skin.
The active lather of this pure, delicately perfumed silk removes
stale rouge and powder freeze the pores of all foreign
matter and keeps the skin soft, smooth and clear seconds.
(01:43):
Lux Toilet Soap is within everybody's budget. It costs so
little and all the family can use it. It's fine
for baby's tender skin. Men prefer it for its full
rich lather. With your next order, remember to add and
six cakes of Lux toilet Soap. Now the man who
has given us some of our greatest motion pictures and
(02:03):
many of our most glamorous stars, Ladies and gentlemen, the
producer of the Lux Radio Theater, mister Cecil B.
Speaker 3 (02:10):
De Mill.
Speaker 2 (02:17):
Getings from Hollywood, ladies and gentlemen. The most hilarious April
Fool joke ever played on the world, and the one
we most appreciate, is Wallace Bury. He was born in
Kansas City on April first. At the age of nine,
he was the biggest boy in the fourth grade. Three
years later, he was still the biggest boy in the
fourth grade. The faculty was amazed at his ability to
(02:39):
resist education, and his schoolmates were completely owed by him.
They called him Jumbo, which was not only descriptive but
prophetic for At fifteen, he left home and became the
best known elephant trainer in America, forcing Ringling's herd of
twenty six. While he followed this for a humble, even
humiliating start as an actor, It was as a chorus
(03:00):
boy in Babes and toy Rand. When I first met
him twenty years ago. I cast him as a German
general in the first picture based on the World War
The Little America. He has since been an electrician, cameraman, director,
comedian and serious actor, breaking all records for motion picture versatility.
The play in which he stars Tonight is taken from
(03:21):
the comedy by Arthur Goodrich based on the novel by
Booth Talkington, featured with Wally is an all star cast.
We'll hear Clara Kimball Young as Missus Tinker, Marjorie Rambo
in the role of Madame Momorrow, Cecilia Parker as Olivia Tinker,
Eric Lindon as Lawrence Ogle, and we'll hear Wallace Berry
in the character of an American millionaire. He is starred
(03:44):
as Earl Tinker in The Plutocrat. You're in a state
room on board the steamship Doomvia. It's evening of the
first day out and already Missus Tinker has succumbed to
(04:07):
the rolling sea. She lies in her birth and an
icebag on her head, a hapless, hopeless, helpless expression in
her eyes. Oh, her husband said, to her side, filled
with concerns.
Speaker 3 (04:22):
Oh, how do you feel now, honey?
Speaker 4 (04:28):
Terrible?
Speaker 3 (04:29):
Oh gosh, I hate to see you feel like this.
Ain't anything I can do for you.
Speaker 5 (04:33):
No, just go away, go away and let me gi
and teeth.
Speaker 3 (04:37):
Oh, don't talk like that. Why you ain't gonna die, folks,
don't pass out on the cont a little sea sickness,
I'm going.
Speaker 6 (04:44):
To I never felt like this in all my life.
Speaker 3 (04:46):

Speaker 7 (04:51):

Speaker 3 (04:54):
Oh, you will feel better just as soon as we

Speaker 3 (05:04):
You know.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
I was speaking to.
Speaker 3 (05:05):
The captain just after dinner. He said, all this talk
about sea sickness is just imagination. Well, you probably ain't
sea sick at all. You just feel bad on account
of that lemon meringue pie that you had for dinner.
Speaker 2 (05:17):
Oh.
Speaker 3 (05:17):
Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, honey, I didn't mean to darling.

on telling me to go away.

Speaker 3 (05:37):
Baby seems ashamed though. Here we are, the first real
vacation in ten years, and your ma has to go

one thing I wanted to tell you. That there's more.
I have sat at the table with you every day
for eight days. It hasn't been pleasant for me, not
any pleasanter than it has been for you. And I
know how unpleasant it's been for you.
Speaker 9 (15:41):
Well, really must take it interrupt.
Speaker 4 (15:43):
I know what you think of Papa, what you think
of me, because i'm his daughter. You think he's just
a common, ordinary provincial Westerner that happens to have the money.
Well he isn't. You think you're also vastly superior?
Speaker 6 (15:55):
Well you're not.
Speaker 4 (15:56):
And if you only knew what he thinks about you,
of course that wouldn't matter. Do not want He hasn't

It is not impassive life. It is just an adventure,
is it not so? Perhaps that Binger, I feel much different.

doing while I've been seasick? I guess no married woman
ought to take a sea trip with her husband unless
she's a good sailor.
Speaker 3 (20:36):
No, no, honey, you know every day on this trip,
I've been so lonesomeple.
Speaker 6 (20:40):
Oh, you've never been lonesome in your life.
Speaker 5 (20:44):
Well listen, Mama, will liave your hands off me, yourl thinker,
and listen to this.
Speaker 6 (20:49):
If you ever go chasing off after any other woman,
I'll well, I'm just warning.
Speaker 3 (20:55):
You, that's all I'll say. I don't need any warnings.
Speaker 6 (20:58):
I'm going back to the cabin, m and I think
you'd better.
Speaker 3 (21:01):
Come to Yeah, I'll be right with you, honey.
Speaker 2 (21:05):
Guys, monsieur teacher.
Speaker 3 (21:06):
Mm here's the daily bullet, monsieur. You didn't know that's
closed this afternoon? Mm mm no, thanks, George, you know, uh, George,
will monsieur. Suppose there's a place that's just loaded with danger,
and suppose a man's wife is just set on his
going there.
Speaker 2 (21:25):
What can he do do?
Speaker 3 (21:27):
He must do nothing? You must go like like a man.
Oh be a call. Yeah, Oh I'm pretty much of
a card. But Mama insists on going to Bindar.
Speaker 2 (21:53):
Just a moment. We'll go on with the Plutograph, the
LUTs Radio theater production with Wallisbury and an all star
Castow we're going over to the Paramount Studios. Two girls
have met on the lot. Let's listen to what they say.
Speaker 6 (22:05):
No, Judy, go my way.
Speaker 4 (22:07):
Say what's the matter with you?
Speaker 9 (22:08):
Anyway?
Speaker 2 (22:09):
Oh?
Speaker 4 (22:09):
I thought I was going to make the grade of
that taxi dancing see in the New Orleans cafe.
Speaker 6 (22:14):
But I didn't.
Speaker 4 (22:15):
Probably I'll never get a job on this lot again,
for any other I care for.
Speaker 11 (22:19):
Or get hold of yourself, Judy, it'll come out all right.
Speaker 7 (22:22):
Flow, it won't.
Speaker 4 (22:23):
Why I was all set for this job and they
told me nothing doing. They said that even though my
dancing was good, I showed up bamming the close ups.
Speaker 7 (22:31):
And it's all because of my skin.
Speaker 2 (22:34):
Flow.
Speaker 6 (22:34):
Why should I have all these little blemishes?
Speaker 4 (22:36):
You don't Your skin is loved me. Well, I do
give my skin a little attention.
Speaker 3 (22:41):
For one thing.
Speaker 9 (22:41):
I use luck soap regularly.
Speaker 7 (22:44):
You know, Judy, I bet you never rarely get all
of the stale make up.
Speaker 6 (22:47):
Out of your skin, so wonder you've got choked pores
and little blemishes.
Speaker 2 (22:51):
There are thousands of girls today like flow. They use
rouge and powder as much as they like, but they
keep their skin soft and smooth with lux toilet so
active ladder. There are some duties too, who miss out
because cosmetic skin has made them unattractive. It's foolish to
risk cosmetic skin when such a simple, inexpensive care as
Luck's toilet soap guards against it. Begin to use it
(23:14):
right away, as nine out of ten screen stars do.
And here's mister de Mille. We continue our play The Prudocrat,
starring Wallace Bury with an all star cast. Several days
have passed, and our friends from the boats are now
(23:35):
stopping at a tourist hotel in Binda, on the edge
of the desert. Downstairs, on the Piazza larles Ovo, the
New York playwrights is slunk in a chair, hands funs
deep in his pockets, his whole attitude suggesting despondency. From
the courtyard comes Tinker. He gets the playwright.
Speaker 3 (23:53):
Effusively well well well, look who's here, Little old New York.
When did you arrive this afternoon? So I've been out
on a little trip across the desert all day. Well
how you standing it?
Speaker 9 (24:08):
Standing one?
Speaker 3 (24:09):
Why this place here? You know the heat, flies, bottle
water and all that. Everybody jabbering around in foreign languages say,
have you had any fleas yet? No? That's good, neither
of I. But mommy, we won't go into that.
Speaker 2 (24:25):
You know.
Speaker 3 (24:26):
Thanks, You know what they need here is a good, live,
snappy board to help. Now you take all these smells
around here. For instance, I didn't realize what could be
done in the line of smells. But over in that
town of sibby Okie, where I was today, I ran
across one smell that had anything that I ever smelled
stung to death. Sibby Oki had a funny name for
(24:49):
a town.
Speaker 9 (24:50):
Is it any funny of an Omaha?
Speaker 3 (24:52):
Well, well, at last you said something. Up to now's
been like talking to you, has been like coming out
on a train east from Chicago.
Speaker 10 (25:02):
I was listening to you the sort of thing one
gets on trains west of Chicago.
Speaker 3 (25:05):
Sure, free and friendly.
Speaker 9 (25:07):
Oh that's one reason a lot of a stay east.
Speaker 3 (25:09):
Well, it would improve you to go west.
Speaker 9 (25:11):
You know, no, thanks, I prefer civilization.
Speaker 3 (25:13):
Now, what are you doing out here? That's what I
like to know.
Speaker 9 (25:16):
I suppose you ask Madam tomorrow about that.
Speaker 3 (25:18):
Madam?
Speaker 2 (25:19):
Is she here?
Speaker 9 (25:20):
You don't expect me to believe you didn't know she
was coming?
Speaker 3 (25:22):
Well, what can come to you talking about? Yes, Olivia,
Mama wants to see your papa. Oh yeah, where's she upstairs?
Speaker 4 (25:29):
She wants to know where you've been.
Speaker 3 (25:31):
Well, I've been right here talking to mister Ogley. You
don't remember if mister Argley bay to day?
Speaker 4 (25:35):
Yes, I remember?
Speaker 2 (25:36):
Yeah, thanks, mister thinker.
Speaker 3 (25:39):
M h a letter for you. It was left at
the desk. Oh at the desk, Oh, I see, thank you, Georgie.
No left at the desk. That's funny, yeah, ain't it?
MutS to be a bell and a.
Speaker 4 (25:52):
Lavender en below mm well, and turfume too, a perfume bill.
Speaker 3 (25:58):
Uh huh. Yeah, you can't tell anything about out these foreigners,
you know, they do funny things. Sometimes. I guess I
better run on upstairs than see them all. It's a
long mister ogleake, of course.
Speaker 4 (26:09):
Mister Ogle wrap bill is really a note from your
French lady she isn't.
Speaker 9 (26:13):
My French lady.
Speaker 4 (26:14):
I saw you arrive with all those bags. You didn't
look very happy. I wasn't you don't look happy even.
Speaker 9 (26:20):
Now I'm not good.
Speaker 7 (26:21):
Why aren't you going to stab and have tea with me?
Speaker 4 (26:24):
See what the em Why not decide I wanna talk
to you about yourself?
Speaker 9 (26:28):
Oh what again?
Speaker 4 (26:30):
I was gotten to you on the boat, wasn't I, Kelly?
Was it you who suggested this trip to Bindar? Or
was it your French lady?
Speaker 9 (26:37):
I tell you she isn't my French lady? Which she's
a destiny?
Speaker 4 (26:41):
Then she is after Papa, isn't she?
Speaker 9 (26:43):
Yes, as much as told me so right after we
arrived here.
Speaker 4 (26:46):
And that's why you're looking so miserable. Of course she's
nearly old enough to be your mother.
Speaker 3 (26:51):
No, I don't rub it in.
Speaker 9 (26:52):
It's all over with now. I just made a fool
of myself. That isn't the worst.
Speaker 4 (26:56):
I'm a failure, a failure, the great mister Ogu.
Speaker 9 (27:00):
I had a play on in New York, the pastoral scene.
Speaker 4 (27:02):
Yes, I know I saw it.
Speaker 9 (27:03):
Would you like it?
Speaker 4 (27:04):
Not much?
Speaker 2 (27:05):
No?
Speaker 9 (27:05):
You were right. It's a flop.
Speaker 10 (27:07):
I thought it'd be such a sure fire hit that
I took this trip on the strength of it, and
here I am on the edge of the desert.
Speaker 9 (27:12):
Flat stony broke. Nice Really this little laugh when you
remember how cocky I was on a boat, I've sort.
Speaker 4 (27:18):
Of strunk a bit, haven't I think of you being humble?
You don't know how becoming it is. Well, you'll just
have to sit down and write another play, a better one.
Speaker 9 (27:27):
I have written a better one. Producer has it now,
but he'll never put it on, not after this wash out.
Speaker 7 (27:32):
What are you going to do?
Speaker 9 (27:34):
I have the remotest idea. I haven't even got a return.
Speaker 4 (27:36):
Ticket, of course, proper advantage something.
Speaker 9 (27:39):
Oh no, you wouldn't take it, not from him.
Speaker 6 (27:42):
Oh you are a darling.
Speaker 4 (27:44):
Why you see I changed to you?
Speaker 9 (27:47):
Well, I should think you had.
Speaker 4 (27:49):
I hated you on the boat, partly because you were
so aloof and patronizing in New York. But down underneath
you're strong and gritty and chivalrous ment possibly masculine and stubborn,
just like Papa.
Speaker 6 (28:00):
What Olivia, Olivia, Yes, Mama, your father? Where is he?
Speaker 7 (28:05):
Where is he?
Speaker 4 (28:06):
Why he said he was going upstairs to see you.
Speaker 6 (28:08):
Didn't he see you?
Speaker 7 (28:09):
He did not?
Speaker 6 (28:10):
He sent me a note, A note.
Speaker 7 (28:13):
Listen, dear mama.
Speaker 6 (28:16):
He always calls me mama when he's up to something.
Speaker 7 (28:18):
Go on, there's some folks I got acquainted with.
Speaker 6 (28:22):
Wants me to go out and meet some of this
famous Arab cuckoos.
Speaker 7 (28:27):
Not what in heaven name or cuckoos.
Speaker 4 (28:29):
Maybe he'll explain.
Speaker 6 (28:30):
Oh, he'll explain, all right, he'll explain plenty. Listen to this.
You and baby go right ahead and have your dinner.
I'll be back early, at least pretty early.
Speaker 7 (28:41):
Lovingly, earl. Did you hear that? Lovingly?
Speaker 4 (28:45):
But Mama, there's nothing wrong in that.
Speaker 5 (28:46):
Oh? Yes, there is no man ever sends love to
his wife unless he's making love to another woman.
Speaker 4 (28:51):
Mama, Well, i'll find out who it is.
Speaker 6 (28:53):
I'll find out, and when I do.
Speaker 2 (28:57):
The lord who is mademoiselle?
Speaker 6 (29:01):
How how do you do I've seen that young man someplate?
Speaker 12 (29:05):
Oh botie, yes, madame on the boat.
Speaker 2 (29:07):
Perhaps I was traveling with my mamma.

Mamma, let's go upstairs.
Speaker 5 (29:11):
Just a mother stopping here now, Ah, you said it, madame,
But well she is I do not know.

She says she's going to eat these sir famous very
pool Oh.
Speaker 5 (29:20):
Indeed, he mama, fleas, and was that famous food called

Cuckoos?
Speaker 3 (29:29):

Speaker 7 (29:30):
That's what I'd like to know.
Speaker 5 (29:31):
So he's with her, is he, Mama, don't don't let
me alone. He was with her all the way over
on the boat, packing his shoulder.
Speaker 6 (29:37):
I saw her, and he's with her. Now, just wait
until he comes home. I'll cuckoo him.
Speaker 3 (29:43):
Just waite, come on into the card room, this says Momroe.
Speaker 4 (30:01):
Ah, there is no one here, no, not.
Speaker 3 (30:06):
At two o'clock in the morning, two o'clock. See, this
is the terrible time to be coming home. My wife
will be worried, sick. It is late.
Speaker 7 (30:14):
If that guide had not lost his way, Yeah, a
swell guide he was. Ah, but it was beautiful moonlight
on the desert.
Speaker 3 (30:21):
Sure, moonlight's great anywhere you.
Speaker 7 (30:24):
Ought to see it out No more, you'll never forget.
Speaker 3 (30:28):
It, I should say not. As a matter of fact.
I'm getting kind of homesick for.
Speaker 2 (30:32):
The old place right now.
Speaker 3 (30:33):
You know, ought to be getting started back there. Pretty soon.
Speaker 7 (30:37):
You will go and I will stay. But two nights,
two nights, three are here together.
Speaker 3 (30:43):
Yeah, yes, ma'am, I'm not so sure. It's a safe
place to be, though.
Speaker 7 (30:49):
You turn on the lights. Must we have light?
Speaker 3 (30:51):
Well, I guess it's more according to the hall. Besides,
I gotta shoot upstairs in a minute.
Speaker 7 (30:56):
Oh no, no, no, not yet. See see I sit
down just to make.
Speaker 9 (31:00):
You see down.
Speaker 3 (31:00):
Well, I'll stay just a couple of minutes, that's all.
Speaker 7 (31:03):
Have you never wondered about me, who I am, where
I come from?
Speaker 3 (31:07):
Well maybe I have in a way, but I wouldn't
have thought about asking.
Speaker 9 (31:10):
You I wanted to know.
Speaker 7 (31:12):
Listen, twenty years ago, I am at Budapest. I am dancing.
Speaker 9 (31:17):
It is a masquerade.
Speaker 3 (31:18):
I bet you was a stunner.
Speaker 7 (31:19):
Then one man there, think so I meet him at
nine o'clock. I dance with him, but no one else
until one. Then we run away together.
Speaker 3 (31:27):
Now that's what I call snappy work.
Speaker 7 (31:30):
All night, we drive it at daybreak.
Speaker 9 (31:32):
We are married.
Speaker 7 (31:33):
Too late I find out that he is a crumb prince.
Oh no, it is better that I do not name
the country. It is so long ago.

He is the father of my son, honeysuckle.

So we try America, but no, there is no place.
Speaker 4 (32:12):
For us there.
Speaker 7 (32:13):
So we start backroom but post twelve years, where we
have friends. Then on the boat coming back, I meet
you and oh no, no, I cannot go on.
Speaker 6 (32:23):
I cannot see the rest.
Speaker 3 (32:24):
Oh say, don't cry, missus Monroe.
Speaker 4 (32:29):
You are so big, you're so kind.
Speaker 7 (32:34):
If I can't but rest here for just a moment

I'm not so sure my wife would like that. She
wouldn't like that, Missus Momro.

But in the moment, I go, I'm not here. No

Four hundred thousand francs. How much is that real money?

foreign dishes, and all and and and so I went,

Speaker 5 (35:07):

Now, Mama, don't get excited, you know, come on over again,

Speaker 6 (35:19):
I know where you were, Earl Tinker, and I know
who you are with.
Speaker 7 (35:23):
You ought to be ashamed, but.
Speaker 3 (35:25):
I ain't done nothing to be ashamed of.
Speaker 6 (35:27):
Coming home at two o'clock in the morning.
Speaker 3 (35:28):
I can explain that, Mama. We had a guide and
after we ate the cuckoos, the guide showda surround and

Speaker 6 (35:35):

Now, look, mommy, I can ex.
Speaker 6 (35:40):
Don't father to explain, Earl Tinker. I don't want to

place tomorrow.

All right. I'll get the tickets.
Speaker 6 (36:00):
You needn't bother, I'll get them myself.
Speaker 3 (36:03):
You don't mean you're going home alone?
Speaker 6 (36:06):
No, I'm going with Olivia?
Speaker 3 (36:08):
What about me?
Speaker 7 (36:09):
I don't care what you do.
Speaker 6 (36:11):
Stay here if you like, I don't care.
Speaker 3 (36:14):
Oh no, and that ain't no way to talk. You
don't mean that, Mama, Yes I do.
Speaker 7 (36:20):
And I wouldn't care if I never saw you again.
Speaker 6 (36:23):
That's how much I mean it.
Speaker 2 (36:24):
Oh.
Speaker 3 (36:25):
Oh, mama, Here wait a second, mama.
Speaker 2 (36:30):
Oh guys, recaus for station identification. This is the Columbia
Broadcasting System. Since the advent of sound pictures just ten
(37:04):
years ago, Hollywood has become the world's largest colony of musicians.
Victor Young is an outstanding member of this group. His
career as a violinist ended abruptly when Victor tore up
a five hundred dollars a week contract because it called
for popular music. Then he changed his mind. Although symphonic
music still dominates his private life. Victor has composed over
(37:27):
sixty popular songs. The first one he wrote Sweets Sue
was an immediate hit. A composer and conductor at Paramount Studios,
he also directs the orchestra on the show Chateau Radio
Hour Saturday Nights. Ladies and gentlemen, mister Victor Young, thank you.
Speaker 13 (37:49):
Mister de mill I've had many surprises since coming to Hollywood,
but none as great as discovering Coach. As he asked
the picture, stars are about good music. Joe Crawford, who
is studying voice, is a steady patron of concerts. Edward Robinson,
who won his famous Gunman Rolls, is happiest when he's
conducting an orchestra and his daughter's an excellent singer.
Speaker 3 (38:08):
Take Wally Berry. He invites you to his home for dinner,
and all you do is listen to his little daughter.
Carol Anne played the piano.
Speaker 13 (38:15):
Alista Landi is a pianist and composer, so is Lionel Barrymore.
Loretta Young seldom misses a concert, while Myrna Lloyd, Glorius
Wanson and Herbert Marshall are all great music lovers.
Speaker 2 (38:25):
Most of our stars were present a few weeks ago
at Leopold Stokowski's concert in the Hollywood Bowl when Victor
conducted the first rendition of his remarkable musical pictures of
the desert known as Arizona Sketchers.
Speaker 3 (38:37):
I've got a confession to make about that composition. I've
never been near Arizona, and.
Speaker 2 (38:41):
Bez they've never been to Spain when he wrote common
Do you realize solely on the imagination?
Speaker 3 (38:46):
Victor?
Speaker 13 (38:46):
When composing well, I get a lot of inspiration playing poker.
Speaker 2 (38:51):
Huh, collecting other paper's notes h No, I always lose.
But the other day I was told to write a
song for Carol.
Speaker 3 (38:57):
Loambert's next picture. So I played poker.
Speaker 13 (39:00):
As I was driving home four thirty in the morning.
I ran into a tune, stopped the car, and wrote
it on the back of an envelope. I once wrote
a song on the back of a lock soap wrapper.
If the tune was as good as the soap, I
would have had a real hit. Frankly, mister de Mill,
the hardest thing about being a musical conductor is to
be invited to talk on the radio program.
Speaker 2 (39:19):
I'd much rather play, then, Why not play the song
you wrote for Mary ellis latest picture, Fatal Lady, You
wos Ador?
Speaker 3 (39:25):
I'd be glad to I'd be the hip.
Speaker 2 (41:01):
Back to our play the photograph with Wallace Bury and
an all star cast featuring Clara Kimball, Young Marjorie Rambo,
Cecilia Parker and Eric Lindon. It's early the next morning.
In the sunny dining room. Olivia sits at a small
table waiting for her breakfast. Lawrence Ogo, attired and a
(41:24):
waited apron, comes to her side and addresses her in
respectful tones in.
Speaker 9 (41:29):
Good morning, miss, you care for your breakfast now?
Speaker 4 (41:32):
Yes, i'd like him, Laurence Ogo?
Speaker 9 (41:34):
Yes, miss?
Speaker 4 (41:35):
What are you doing in that apron?
Speaker 9 (41:37):
Well, I'm a waiter, mss the waiter.
Speaker 10 (41:39):
Why, Well, I had to do something. I haven't any money,
you know, so I asked the manager for a job
and got it. Oh never nine dollars a week and keeps.
I've got it all figured out. If I hold this
job and bank all my tips, I would have enough
money saved up to get out of here by Christmas.
Speaker 4 (41:53):
Well easter, it's the latest, Lawrence Oger, you're a fool.
Speaker 9 (41:55):
Yes, miss, Well, you have some grepe fruit.
Speaker 4 (41:57):
Listen to me.
Speaker 9 (41:58):
The melon's particularly nicest.
Speaker 2 (41:59):
More.
Speaker 4 (42:00):
If you say miss to me again, I'll scream yesment, listen,
Lawrence Silbill, you go right out to the office this
minute and resign. I'll see that you get back home.
Speaker 3 (42:07):
All right.
Speaker 9 (42:08):
I'm sorry, miss, but I've got to see to that myself.
Speaker 4 (42:10):
You refuse to accept any help, Oh.
Speaker 10 (42:12):
Not at all if you could find it in your
heart to leave an extra large tip, say fifteen cents
or maybe twenty.
Speaker 4 (42:17):
Oh why you're so stubborn.
Speaker 10 (42:19):
Well I'll tell you why. Because I've been a failure.
But worse than that, I've been a cheap, egatistical faker.
I knew that last night walking out across the desert
with you by my side. You remember what I said
you were moonstruck. Well sunshining now, then you're sun struck.
Speaker 2 (42:34):
Anyway.
Speaker 9 (42:35):
I made a decision last night.
Speaker 10 (42:36):
I determined that I had to work and work hard
to get back my self respect because well, because someday
I'm going to marry the finest girl in the world.
Speaker 4 (42:43):
Are you sure she'll have you?
Speaker 9 (42:45):
Absolutely? When that girl marries, she's got to marry a man.
Speaker 4 (42:49):
Her parents might object to her marrying a waiter in
an Arab hotel.
Speaker 9 (42:52):
Oh, and I guess I'm out of luck.
Speaker 6 (42:54):
You will be laurences O gil.
Speaker 4 (42:55):
If Papa comes down and finds you dressed up like that,
he'll laugh you off the map.
Speaker 9 (42:58):
Oh he's done already.
Speaker 6 (43:00):
Sure did he see you?
Speaker 9 (43:02):
Well, yes and no. He looked at me when I
spoke to him, But I doubt if he really saw me.
I think he's in a daze or something.
Speaker 10 (43:08):
Poor Papa.
Speaker 9 (43:09):
Where is he now outside on the porch.
Speaker 10 (43:11):
He's been walking up and down out there all morning,
up and down, back and forth.
Speaker 9 (43:15):
Must be something on his mind.
Speaker 3 (43:27):
Think. Uh, good morning, missus Dumberrow.
Speaker 7 (43:31):
I have been looking for you. Yeah, MISSI Dinker, I
heard last night what you said to your wife.
Speaker 3 (43:37):
Yeah, I guess the whole hotel heard it.
Speaker 7 (43:40):
I am sorry, terribly sorry.
Speaker 3 (43:43):
Oh that's all right. It wasn't your fault, missus Gumrow.
My wife, well, she just don't understand, that's all. She
won't give me a chance to explain anything.
Speaker 7 (43:53):
She is going to win.
Speaker 3 (43:54):
Yeah, I guess.
Speaker 7 (43:55):
So I am leaving too, you when this morning? Now
I could not stay after causing so so much trouble
for you all. Listen, No, no, it was my fault everything,
But I will try to make it right again, Miss
your tinker. I will go to your wife I would say,
take him back, missus tinker. He is the nicest man
(44:16):
I have ever known.
Speaker 3 (44:17):
No, no, no, you better not say that, missus Barbara
will tell it. But why it is the truth, maybe,
but you know, Mama's kind of funny about them their things. No,
I don't think you better say anything to it at all.
Speaker 7 (44:31):
But she will leave, she will get the divorce.
Speaker 3 (44:33):
No, yeah, yeah, she kind of hanted it that. And
what would you do then? I haven't thought about that.
Ain't very nice, you know. When I start out on
this vacation, all hopped up about seeing the world and
having a good time, and now, well, love, what's happened?
(44:54):
Old business gone to smash. I wish i'd never left.
Speaker 9 (44:58):
Omahall, miss your tinker.

in the car just ten minutes? St If I don't
turn up, why you've gone and scoot along by yourself?

All with all my faults, I told him, I never

Speaker 6 (47:49):

please don't cry. It'll be all right. I'll ever see
him again.
Speaker 8 (48:03):
And she won't treat him right, I know she won't.
She'll let him go out in the ring without his rubbers.
He always forgets his rubbers. And who's gonna make him
change to his heavy socks when the snow's.
Speaker 4 (48:13):
On the ground.
Speaker 6 (48:14):
He'd never think of that himself. Mama, Please, Oh why

Speaker 6 (48:28):

Speaker 3 (48:29):
Sure, I've come back. You seem kind of glad to
see me too.
Speaker 12 (48:32):

Speaker 3 (48:34):
Where were you? Oh well, no place in particular. I
walked down the road away. There's a jewelry store down there,
in a rab place. I thought, well, maybe you'd like.
Speaker 2 (48:45):
A place of that, a rabbi and jewelry, so I

Of course, you got sea sick, Olivia got her husband.
That kind of makes up far Oh, yes, I made
a honeysuckle in impresario, say, ugly, you're a pretty smart fella,
(49:36):
ain't you. Well, maybe well tell me something, will you?
What in the blazes is an impresario?
Speaker 2 (49:54):
He leaves the Pluto tract. I mean, even if he's
returned to Omaha, but for Karl Wallasteri and Cecilia park
Up back to the microphone. Shortly today, the world's most
popular screen personality is celebrating the eighth anniversary of his
debut in films. He has awards from nine different nations.
President Roosevelt, Queen Mary, and Benito Mussolini are among his
(50:15):
most ardent admirers. In Alaska, he's warmly received by the Eskimos,
while in Ethiopia. Even the war failed to stop the
showing of his pictures. In France, where he won membership
in the Legion of Honor, he's known as Michel Suri.
The Japanese call him Mikikucci, the Spanish Miguel Ratanito. His name,
(50:36):
as you may have surmised, is Mickey Mouse. To Mickey,
the world owes an immense debt of gratitude, But a
still greater debt is due the man standing beside me now,
ladies and gentlemen, the creator of Mickey Mouse and the
Silly Symphony cartoons, mister Walt Disney. Thank you, mister the mill.
Speaker 14 (50:57):
My knees are knocking together so hardly, sound like a
rivity machine.
Speaker 3 (51:01):
Maybe I'd better sit down.
Speaker 2 (51:02):
Come on, well, stand up to the microphone. Are you
a man or a mouse?
Speaker 3 (51:05):
Well?
Speaker 14 (51:06):
After associating with mice for so many years, I sometimes wonder.
Speaker 3 (51:09):
Myself, you see.
Speaker 14 (51:10):
As a matter of fact, Mickey and I have been
paled long before he became an actor. His real name
is Mortimer, but no regular fellow likes a name like Mortimer,
so he changed his name to Mickey.
Speaker 2 (51:19):
But it does nothing to Walt Disney made the first
cartoon in sound, Ladies and gentlemen, that Mickey attained star proportions.
That film was called Steamboat Willie, and it was the
late Roxy who had the courage to release it. I
suppose Walt that the motion picture industry thought you were
crazy to put sound in an animated cartoon.
Speaker 14 (51:37):
Yes, completely met.
Speaker 2 (51:39):
Do you know what they're saying about you today, now
that you are making the first feature length animated picture,
Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs?
Speaker 14 (51:45):
I can imagine what have you heard?
Speaker 3 (51:47):
Now?
Speaker 2 (51:48):
Perhaps you better imagine that too. Anyway, how do you
feel about it?
Speaker 14 (51:52):
Well, mister nemil, any pictures a gamble, but we're betting
three quarters of a million dollars that Snow White will
be good entertainment.
Speaker 2 (51:58):
My bets on you. And now, ladies and gentlemen, I
think we should course examine the young fellow on whom
Walt that his money eight years ago. Mickey Mouse take
the stand, Yes, mister Demill. Mickey, how does it feel
to have the whole world celebrating your birthday? Yes, mister Demill,
I mean swell, who's the better actor? Mickey? You are
(52:19):
Donald Duck?
Speaker 14 (52:19):
Oh gosh, I don't know Mickey's an actor. Mister Demill, Donald,
just a clown, nicky.
Speaker 2 (52:31):
Is it true that you're jealous of Donald Duck's meteoric
rise to fame? Oh absolutely not.
Speaker 3 (52:37):
Mister Demill.
Speaker 14 (52:38):
Donald was starving to death singing in radio when Mickey
found him.
Speaker 2 (52:42):
I remember, I remember on the airwaves. He was like
a duck out of water.
Speaker 14 (52:46):
Yeah, just a wise quacker, Donald, Donald, Donald, get off
mister de Mill's neck.
Speaker 3 (52:54):
Let go, Let go there.
Speaker 2 (52:56):
Now that's more like it. Remember you're a star now, yeah, and.
Speaker 12 (53:00):
He's got a ballet who washes his face with what soap?
Speaker 3 (53:05):
Swow?
Speaker 2 (53:09):
Donald Duck, you've denied being the worst singer in the
annals of radio. All right, prove it sing and it'd
better be good. Donald, I apologize, You're wonderful. Thank you,
(53:42):
wal Good night, Mickey, night, mister the Mill, Good night,
mister the Mill, And as you like it. Shakespeare says
that each man in his time plays many parts, but
surely a few have played so many parts so well
as Wallace Berry, whilely I think has been everything except
the leading lady. But here he is now leading a
(54:05):
lady to our microphone. Wallace Berry and Cecilia Parker.
Speaker 3 (54:12):
I thank you mister Demil, he gave my history wrong.
I was a leading lady once. My first part in
pictures was as a beautiful Swedish housemaid.
Speaker 2 (54:22):
Were you as beautiful then? While as you are now?
Speaker 3 (54:26):
Well, Cecilia Parker here takes care of the good Looks department.
Maybe I should say the good Lucks department.
Speaker 4 (54:33):
Well, of course you should say the luxe department, although
I guess it isn't really news that I use lucks soup.
Practically every star in Hollywood does. But honestly, mister Demillon,
you shouldn't say one or he's good looking. I think
he's beautiful.
Speaker 3 (54:45):
Thanks, well, I guess I'm the only one in Hollywood
who wasn't even considered for the part of Romeo.
Speaker 6 (54:52):
But you got just as great a part in your
new picture, Old Hutch.
Speaker 2 (54:55):
Well, the only difference is instead of making you a
great lover, they made you a great loafer.
Speaker 3 (55:01):
You know I always carry my critic along with me,
my daughter Carol Anne. You know, maybe you'd like to
hear from here. Come here, Carol, Carol, this is miss
Parker and mister de Mill.
Speaker 6 (55:11):
How you do mister de mil?
Speaker 2 (55:12):
You know mister de Miller has directed some of the
greatest pictures ever made.
Speaker 3 (55:16):
You know, for instance, Uh, did you ever hear of
clear popa yeaddy?
Speaker 6 (55:20):
I can't say that word, but that you, mister de Mill.
Speaker 2 (55:25):
I'm afraid not, Carol. That's the first time I've been
mistaken for the Siren of the Nile.
Speaker 4 (55:30):
You see, Carol, mister de Mill produces this program for
Lux Toilet Soup. Oh I know about LUs toilet shop.
Speaker 6 (55:37):
I washed my daughter's face with it. She won't let
me use anything else.
Speaker 3 (55:42):
Yeah, true, Hollywood doll. Well the next the next time
that you wash your face, don't dump those SuDS on
the ladies parrot next door, will you please? Now we
forgot to ask you how how you were sitting out there?
How did you like the show?
Speaker 6 (55:56):
The show was all like, But why didn't you do something?
Speaker 3 (56:01):
I can always tell when you're tired and sleepy and
time to go home? Well, mister Gimli, I think we
better say good night, good night Rally, good night.
Speaker 6 (56:09):
Miss mister, good night, Miss Talkers.

De Mille.
Speaker 2 (00:50):
Tonight, we celebrate the one hundredth broadcast of the Lux
Radio Theater, and many of Hollywood's notables are here to
observe the occasion with us. Among those in our audience,
I see Madam Schumann, Height, Carmel Myers, Sorry, Maritza and
Denny Baker. And to all our listeners, a hearty welcome
from Lux. Before turning the microphone over to mister Demill,
(01:20):
may I remind you of just two of the many
good reasons why Lux toilet soap is so popular the
world over. First, Lucks toilet soap guards against cosmetic skin.
The active lather of this pure, delicately perfumed silk removes
stale rouge and powder freeze the pores of all foreign
matter and keeps the skin soft, smooth and clear seconds.
(01:43):
Lux Toilet Soap is within everybody's budget. It costs so
little and all the family can use it. It's fine
for baby's tender skin. Men prefer it for its full
rich lather. With your next order, remember to add and
six cakes of Lux toilet Soap. Now the man who
has given us some of our greatest motion pictures and
(02:03):
many of our most glamorous stars, Ladies and gentlemen, the
producer of the Lux Radio Theater, mister Cecil B.
Speaker 3 (02:10):
De Mill.
Speaker 2 (02:17):
Getings from Hollywood, ladies and gentlemen. The most hilarious April
Fool joke ever played on the world, and the one
we most appreciate, is Wallace Bury. He was born in
Kansas City on April first. At the age of nine,
he was the biggest boy in the fourth grade. Three
years later, he was still the biggest boy in the
fourth grade. The faculty was amazed at his ability to
(02:39):
resist education, and his schoolmates were completely owed by him.
They called him Jumbo, which was not only descriptive but
prophetic for At fifteen, he left home and became the
best known elephant trainer in America, forcing Ringling's herd of
twenty six. While he followed this for a humble, even
humiliating start as an actor, It was as a chorus
(03:00):
boy in Babes and toy Rand. When I first met
him twenty years ago. I cast him as a German
general in the first picture based on the World War
The Little America. He has since been an electrician, cameraman, director,
comedian and serious actor, breaking all records for motion picture versatility.
The play in which he stars Tonight is taken from
(03:21):
the comedy by Arthur Goodrich based on the novel by
Booth Talkington, featured with Wally is an all star cast.
We'll hear Clara Kimball Young as Missus Tinker, Marjorie Rambo
in the role of Madame Momorrow, Cecilia Parker as Olivia Tinker,
Eric Lindon as Lawrence Ogle, and we'll hear Wallace Berry
in the character of an American millionaire. He is starred
(03:44):
as Earl Tinker in The Plutocrat. You're in a state
room on board the steamship Doomvia. It's evening of the
first day out and already Missus Tinker has succumbed to
(04:07):
the rolling sea. She lies in her birth and an
icebag on her head, a hapless, hopeless, helpless expression in
her eyes. Oh, her husband said, to her side, filled
with concerns.
Speaker 3 (04:22):
Oh, how do you feel now, honey?
Speaker 4 (04:28):
Terrible?
Speaker 3 (04:29):
Oh gosh, I hate to see you feel like this.
Ain't anything I can do for you.
Speaker 5 (04:33):
No, just go away, go away and let me gi
and teeth.
Speaker 3 (04:37):
Oh, don't talk like that. Why you ain't gonna die, folks,
don't pass out on the cont a little sea sickness,
I'm going.
Speaker 6 (04:44):
To I never felt like this in all my life.
Speaker 3 (04:46):
Yeah, but we've only been out seven hours, honey.
Speaker 4 (04:49):
It seems like seven years.
Speaker 7 (04:51):
Oh.
Speaker 6 (04:52):
I wish I was back in Olmo.
Speaker 3 (04:54):
Oh, you will feel better just as soon as we
hit Pork. We'll be in Algiers in about eight days.
Speaker 6 (05:00):
Eight days.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
You'll never even know that you were sick.
Speaker 3 (05:04):
You know.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
I was speaking to.
Speaker 3 (05:05):
The captain just after dinner. He said, all this talk
about sea sickness is just imagination. Well, you probably ain't
sea sick at all. You just feel bad on account
of that lemon meringue pie that you had for dinner.

on telling me to go away.

Speaker 6 (14:35):
But i'd probably bump into you. I see that I did.
Speaker 9 (14:38):
I'm sorry sorry to meet me.
Speaker 6 (14:41):
Yes, you always made that perfectly clear.
Speaker 9 (14:43):
Oh you know I didn't mean it that way.
Speaker 4 (14:45):
It doesn't matter.
Speaker 6 (14:46):
I was looking for Papa.
Speaker 9 (14:47):
Oh, I haven't seen him.
Speaker 4 (14:48):
Do you know where he is?
Speaker 3 (14:49):
No?
Speaker 9 (14:49):
I have the faintest idea that's not true.
Speaker 6 (14:51):
You know perfectly well.
Speaker 4 (14:52):
He's on the upper deck with Madame Murra.
Speaker 3 (14:54):
Oh is he? And you know it?
Speaker 4 (14:56):
And I know it, but Mama doesn't.
Speaker 9 (14:57):
If she did, Yes, I can imagine.
Speaker 4 (14:59):
No, you can't not.
Speaker 7 (15:00):
Possibly.
Speaker 4 (15:02):
There's one thing I want to say to you, mister Rogel.
You won't believe it because you come from New York.
Papa is good?
Speaker 3 (15:08):
Oh? Is he?
Speaker 9 (15:10):
Yes?
Speaker 4 (15:11):
I knew you'd say just that just that way.
Speaker 6 (15:13):
Oh, is he.
Speaker 4 (15:15):
Oh, you make me so angry, and then I get
angry all over again because I can let you make
me angry.
Speaker 9 (15:19):
Well, I don't understand. I'm sorry. Really, listen, mister Robel.
Speaker 4 (15:23):
Tomorrow morning we'll all be getting off the boat at Algiers.
I'll probably never see you again. I said there was
one thing I wanted to tell you. That there's more.
I have sat at the table with you every day
for eight days. It hasn't been pleasant for me, not
any pleasanter than it has been for you. And I
know how unpleasant it's been for you.
Speaker 9 (15:41):
Well, really must take it interrupt.
Speaker 4 (15:43):
I know what you think of Papa, what you think
of me, because i'm his daughter. You think he's just
a common, ordinary provincial Westerner that happens to have the money.
Well he isn't. You think you're also vastly superior?
Speaker 6 (15:55):
Well you're not.
Speaker 4 (15:56):
And if you only knew what he thinks about you,
of course that wouldn't matter. Do not want He hasn't
understood your unfleasinness. He just thinks you don't know any better, and.
Speaker 9 (16:05):
You think I do. Of course you do. Thank you.
If I see your father, I'll tell him you're looking for.
Speaker 7 (16:24):
Well, mamma, you have no luck yet, not yet, my son,
there is not much time.
Speaker 9 (16:30):
Why do you not speak to this Monsieur Tinkler, see
if we can borrow.
Speaker 7 (16:33):
I have too much fun. Besides, I know him so liqual.
Speaker 9 (16:36):
Then I am what they say, all washed up.
Speaker 7 (16:39):
Later he journey to the edge of the desert to Binger.
Speaker 9 (16:42):
He tell me so just before you mean, perhaps we
go to bin there herself.
Speaker 7 (16:46):
It is not impassive life. It is just an adventure,
is it not so? Perhaps that Binger, I feel much different.
I do not know only one thing I know somehow
you must have everything for birth. You wish to be
an impresario, a great manager of your praa.
Speaker 2 (17:04):
Is it not so?
Speaker 7 (17:05):
It is the one thing you wish.
Speaker 2 (17:07):
Okay, gliety for Sally.
Speaker 7 (17:10):
It will take much money, and how it shall come
if I can but see you started for success and happiness.
There is nothing I will not do. Mister Oblick, come
and see down.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
Okay, I seek perhaps you would finish your tecond Remember
I will be finished in two shapes.

I've been waiting an hour? Where have you been on deck?

Speaker 7 (17:36):
I suppose yes, he was there too. He is the
most extraordinary.
Speaker 9 (17:40):
I'm not interested.
Speaker 7 (17:41):
Sometimes I almost think you do not like him.
Speaker 10 (17:44):
Like him orally you know, he infuriates me just being
what he is. Besides, I hate him because you seem
to like ah. Ye say, I'll call it that if
you like.
Speaker 7 (17:52):
Perhaps, my dear, that is what I wish.
Speaker 3 (17:55):
Orally, listen to me.
Speaker 7 (17:56):
We are almost algaeous. You promise me that you will
take tripped by automobile to the muscles to being there.
Yea once years ago I took it. I wish I
could do it again. Why don't you Africa it did
a place of magic, a place of strange and chapman.
It changes people for that. I could wish not to
(18:17):
go back to Paris, but to stay, just to see Africa.
Speaker 2 (18:21):
Be with you.
Speaker 9 (18:23):
I'm witched already. Only come with me to Binda.
Speaker 10 (18:27):
I can take a motor and we can drive through
the wilderness, over the mountains, lost away from the world.
Speaker 7 (18:31):
Non together it would not do, you see, I am
very conventional.
Speaker 9 (18:36):
But with your son he goes too, of course I will.

he is.
Speaker 7 (19:18):

Speaker 3 (19:20):
Mama's got her haul her heart set on bendar. Where
are you going?
Speaker 7 (19:25):
Well? I am still not certain.
Speaker 2 (19:27):
Well, I guess this is the last we'll see of
each other.
Speaker 7 (19:31):
Perhaps, but I have a feeling, a very strange feeling,
that we should meet again, mister Pinker. Perhaps even.
Speaker 3 (19:42):
That'll suit me.
Speaker 7 (19:44):
You are sweet, mister thinking.
Speaker 3 (19:50):
Hello there, honey, how are you feeling? I thought you
were down in the cabin.
Speaker 6 (19:55):
I'm feeling much better.
Speaker 7 (19:56):
I thought a little walk on death would be good
for me. Sure, perhaps you will.
Speaker 9 (20:02):
Excuse me now?
Speaker 11 (20:03):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (20:03):
Sure? Good night?
Speaker 11 (20:05):
Right?
Speaker 3 (20:07):
Well, honey, girl Tinker, what's.
Speaker 6 (20:10):
That frenchy woman tapping your shoulder?
Speaker 3 (20:13):
Fool?
Speaker 7 (20:13):
Me my shoulder, Yes, your shoulder.
Speaker 3 (20:17):
No, No, you must be seeing things, Sonney. Oh maybe,
good guy, Sonnie.
Speaker 2 (20:25):
What's the matter with you?
Speaker 3 (20:26):
You know I haven't done anything.
Speaker 5 (20:28):
No, how do I know, Earl Tinker, what you've been
doing while I've been seasick? I guess no married woman
ought to take a sea trip with her husband unless
she's a good sailor.
Speaker 3 (20:36):
No, no, honey, you know every day on this trip,
I've been so lonesomeple.
Speaker 6 (20:40):
Oh, you've never been lonesome in your life.
Speaker 5 (20:44):
Well listen, Mama, will liave your hands off me, yourl thinker,
and listen to this.
Speaker 6 (20:49):
If you ever go chasing off after any other woman,
I'll well, I'm just warning.
Speaker 3 (20:55):
You, that's all I'll say. I don't need any warnings.
Speaker 6 (20:58):
I'm going back to the cabin, m and I think
you'd better.
Speaker 3 (21:01):
Come to Yeah, I'll be right with you, honey.
Speaker 2 (21:05):
Guys, monsieur teacher.
Speaker 3 (21:06):
Mm here's the daily bullet, monsieur. You didn't know that's
closed this afternoon? Mm mm no, thanks, George, you know, uh, George,
will monsieur. Suppose there's a place that's just loaded with danger,
and suppose a man's wife is just set on his
going there.
Speaker 2 (21:25):
What can he do do?
Speaker 3 (21:27):
He must do nothing? You must go like like a man.
Oh be a call. Yeah, Oh I'm pretty much of
a card. But Mama insists on going to Bindar.
Speaker 2 (21:53):
Just a moment. We'll go on with the Plutograph, the
LUTs Radio theater production with Wallisbury and an all star
Castow we're going over to the Paramount Studios. Two girls
have met on the lot. Let's listen to what they say.
Speaker 6 (22:05):
No, Judy, go my way.
Speaker 4 (22:07):
Say what's the matter with you?
Speaker 9 (22:08):
Anyway?
Speaker 2 (22:09):
Oh?
Speaker 4 (22:09):
I thought I was going to make the grade of
that taxi dancing see in the New Orleans cafe.
Speaker 6 (22:14):
But I didn't.
Speaker 4 (22:15):
Probably I'll never get a job on this lot again,
for any other I care for.
Speaker 11 (22:19):
Or get hold of yourself, Judy, it'll come out all right.
Speaker 7 (22:22):
Flow, it won't.
Speaker 4 (22:23):
Why I was all set for this job and they
told me nothing doing. They said that even though my
dancing was good, I showed up bamming the close ups.
Speaker 7 (22:31):
And it's all because of my skin.
Speaker 2 (22:34):
Flow.
Speaker 6 (22:34):
Why should I have all these little blemishes?
Speaker 4 (22:36):
You don't Your skin is loved me. Well, I do
give my skin a little attention.
Speaker 3 (22:41):
For one thing.
Speaker 9 (22:41):
I use luck soap regularly.
Speaker 7 (22:44):
You know, Judy, I bet you never rarely get all
of the stale make up.
Speaker 6 (22:47):
Out of your skin, so wonder you've got choked pores
and little blemishes.
Speaker 2 (22:51):
There are thousands of girls today like flow. They use
rouge and powder as much as they like, but they
keep their skin soft and smooth with lux toilet so
active ladder. There are some duties too, who miss out
because cosmetic skin has made them unattractive. It's foolish to
risk cosmetic skin when such a simple, inexpensive care as
Luck's toilet soap guards against it. Begin to use it
(23:14):
right away, as nine out of ten screen stars do.
And here's mister de Mille. We continue our play The Prudocrat,
starring Wallace Bury with an all star cast. Several days
have passed, and our friends from the boats are now
(23:35):
stopping at a tourist hotel in Binda, on the edge
of the desert. Downstairs, on the Piazza larles Ovo, the
New York playwrights is slunk in a chair, hands funs
deep in his pockets, his whole attitude suggesting despondency. From
the courtyard comes Tinker. He gets the playwright.
Speaker 3 (23:53):
Effusively well well well, look who's here, Little old New York.
When did you arrive this afternoon? So I've been out
on a little trip across the desert all day. Well
how you standing it?
Speaker 9 (24:08):
Standing one?
Speaker 3 (24:09):
Why this place here? You know the heat, flies, bottle
water and all that. Everybody jabbering around in foreign languages say,
have you had any fleas yet? No? That's good, neither
of I. But mommy, we won't go into that.
Speaker 2 (24:25):
You know.
Speaker 3 (24:26):
Thanks, You know what they need here is a good, live,
snappy board to help. Now you take all these smells
around here. For instance, I didn't realize what could be
done in the line of smells. But over in that
town of sibby Okie, where I was today, I ran
across one smell that had anything that I ever smelled
stung to death. Sibby Oki had a funny name for
(24:49):
a town.
Speaker 9 (24:50):
Is it any funny of an Omaha?
Speaker 3 (24:52):
Well, well, at last you said something. Up to now's
been like talking to you, has been like coming out
on a train east from Chicago.
Speaker 10 (25:02):
I was listening to you the sort of thing one
gets on trains west of Chicago.
Speaker 3 (25:05):
Sure, free and friendly.
Speaker 9 (25:07):
Oh that's one reason a lot of a stay east.
Speaker 3 (25:09):
Well, it would improve you to go west.
Speaker 9 (25:11):
You know, no, thanks, I prefer civilization.
Speaker 3 (25:13):
Now, what are you doing out here? That's what I
like to know.
Speaker 9 (25:16):
I suppose you ask Madam tomorrow about that.
Speaker 3 (25:18):
Madam?
Speaker 2 (25:19):
Is she here?
Speaker 9 (25:20):
You don't expect me to believe you didn't know she
was coming?
Speaker 3 (25:22):
Well, what can come to you talking about? Yes, Olivia,
Mama wants to see your papa. Oh yeah, where's she upstairs?
Speaker 4 (25:29):
She wants to know where you've been.
Speaker 3 (25:31):
Well, I've been right here talking to mister Ogley. You
don't remember if mister Argley bay to day?
Speaker 4 (25:35):
Yes, I remember?
Speaker 2 (25:36):
Yeah, thanks, mister thinker.
Speaker 3 (25:39):

the desk. Oh at the desk, Oh, I see, thank you, Georgie.

Lavender en below mm well, and turfume too, a perfume bill.
Speaker 3 (25:58):
Uh huh. Yeah, you can't tell anything about out these foreigners,
you know, they do funny things. Sometimes. I guess I
better run on upstairs than see them all. It's a
long mister ogleake, of course.
Speaker 4 (26:09):
Mister Ogle wrap bill is really a note from your
French lady she isn't.
Speaker 9 (26:13):
My French lady.
Speaker 4 (26:14):
I saw you arrive with all those bags. You didn't
look very happy. I wasn't you don't look happy even.
Speaker 9 (26:20):
Now I'm not good.
Speaker 7 (26:21):
Why aren't you going to stab and have tea with me?
Speaker 4 (26:24):
See what the em Why not decide I wanna talk
to you about yourself?
Speaker 9 (26:28):
Oh what again?
Speaker 4 (26:30):
I was gotten to you on the boat, wasn't I, Kelly?
Was it you who suggested this trip to Bindar? Or
was it your French lady?
Speaker 9 (26:37):
I tell you she isn't my French lady? Which she's
a destiny?
Speaker 4 (26:41):
Then she is after Papa, isn't she?
Speaker 9 (26:43):
Yes, as much as told me so right after we
arrived here.
Speaker 4 (26:46):
And that's why you're looking so miserable. Of course she's
nearly old enough to be your mother.
Speaker 3 (26:51):
No, I don't rub it in.
Speaker 9 (26:52):
It's all over with now. I just made a fool
of myself. That isn't the worst.
Speaker 4 (26:56):
I'm a failure, a failure, the great mister Ogu.
Speaker 9 (27:00):
I had a play on in New York, the pastoral scene.
Speaker 4 (27:02):
Yes, I know I saw it.
Speaker 9 (27:03):
Would you like it?
Speaker 4 (27:04):
Not much?
Speaker 2 (27:05):
No?
Speaker 9 (27:05):
You were right. It's a flop.
Speaker 10 (27:07):
I thought it'd be such a sure fire hit that
I took this trip on the strength of it, and
here I am on the edge of the desert.
Speaker 9 (27:12):
Flat stony broke. Nice Really this little laugh when you
remember how cocky I was on a boat, I've sort.
Speaker 4 (27:18):
Of strunk a bit, haven't I think of you being humble?
You don't know how becoming it is. Well, you'll just
have to sit down and write another play, a better one.
Speaker 9 (27:27):
I have written a better one. Producer has it now,
but he'll never put it on, not after this wash out.
Speaker 7 (27:32):
What are you going to do?
Speaker 9 (27:34):
I have the remotest idea. I haven't even got a return.
Speaker 4 (27:36):
Ticket, of course, proper advantage something.
Speaker 9 (27:39):
Oh no, you wouldn't take it, not from him.
Speaker 6 (27:42):
Oh you are a darling.
Speaker 4 (27:44):
Why you see I changed to you?
Speaker 9 (27:47):
Well, I should think you had.
Speaker 4 (27:49):
I hated you on the boat, partly because you were
so aloof and patronizing in New York. But down underneath
you're strong and gritty and chivalrous ment possibly masculine and stubborn,
just like Papa.
Speaker 6 (28:00):
What Olivia, Olivia, Yes, Mama, your father? Where is he?
Speaker 7 (28:05):
Where is he?
Speaker 4 (28:06):
Why he said he was going upstairs to see you.
Speaker 6 (28:08):
Didn't he see you?
Speaker 7 (28:09):
He did not?
Speaker 6 (28:10):
He sent me a note, A note.
Speaker 7 (28:13):
Listen, dear mama.
Speaker 6 (28:16):
He always calls me mama when he's up to something.
Speaker 7 (28:18):
Go on, there's some folks I got acquainted with.
Speaker 6 (28:22):
Wants me to go out and meet some of this
famous Arab cuckoos.

Not what in heaven name or cuckoos.
Speaker 4 (28:29):
Maybe he'll explain.
Speaker 6 (28:30):
Oh, he'll explain, all right, he'll explain plenty. Listen to this.
You and baby go right ahead and have your dinner.
I'll be back early, at least pretty early.
Speaker 7 (28:41):
Lovingly, earl. Did you hear that? Lovingly?
Speaker 4 (28:45):
But Mama, there's nothing wrong in that.
Speaker 5 (28:46):
Oh? Yes, there is no man ever sends love to
his wife unless he's making love to another woman.
Speaker 4 (28:51):
Mama, Well, i'll find out who it is.
Speaker 6 (28:53):
I'll find out, and when I do.

That's what I'd like to know.
Speaker 5 (29:31):
So he's with her, is he, Mama, don't don't let
me alone. He was with her all the way over
on the boat, packing his shoulder.
Speaker 6 (29:37):
I saw her, and he's with her. Now, just wait
until he comes home. I'll cuckoo him.
Speaker 3 (29:43):
Just waite, come on into the card room, this says Momroe.
Speaker 4 (30:01):
Ah, there is no one here, no, not.
Speaker 3 (30:06):
At two o'clock in the morning, two o'clock. See, this
is the terrible time to be coming home. My wife
will be worried, sick. It is late.
Speaker 7 (30:14):
If that guide had not lost his way, Yeah, a
swell guide he was. Ah, but it was beautiful moonlight
on the desert.
Speaker 3 (30:21):
Sure, moonlight's great anywhere you.
Speaker 7 (30:24):
Ought to see it out No more, you'll never forget.
Speaker 3 (30:28):

The old place right now.
Speaker 3 (30:33):
You know, ought to be getting started back there. Pretty soon.
Speaker 7 (30:37):
You will go and I will stay. But two nights,
two nights, three are here together.
Speaker 3 (30:43):
Yeah, yes, ma'am, I'm not so sure. It's a safe
place to be, though.
Speaker 7 (30:49):
You turn on the lights. Must we have light?
Speaker 3 (30:51):
Well, I guess it's more according to the hall. Besides,
I gotta shoot upstairs in a minute.
Speaker 7 (30:56):
Oh no, no, no, not yet. See see I sit
down just to make.
Speaker 9 (31:00):
You see down.
Speaker 3 (31:00):
Well, I'll stay just a couple of minutes, that's all.
Speaker 7 (31:03):
Have you never wondered about me, who I am, where
I come from?
Speaker 3 (31:07):
Well maybe I have in a way, but I wouldn't
have thought about asking.
Speaker 9 (31:10):
You I wanted to know.
Speaker 7 (31:12):
Listen, twenty years ago, I am at Budapest. I am dancing.
Speaker 9 (31:17):
It is a masquerade.
Speaker 3 (31:18):
I bet you was a stunner.
Speaker 7 (31:19):
Then one man there, think so I meet him at
nine o'clock. I dance with him, but no one else
until one. Then we run away together.
Speaker 3 (31:27):
Now that's what I call snappy work.
Speaker 7 (31:30):
All night, we drive it at daybreak.
Speaker 9 (31:32):
We are married.
Speaker 7 (31:33):
Too late I find out that he is a crumb prince.
Oh no, it is better that I do not name

you and oh no, no, I cannot go on.

Four hundred thousand francs. How much is that real money?
Speaker 2 (33:26):

You ought to be ashamed, but.
Speaker 3 (35:25):
I ain't done nothing to be ashamed of.
Speaker 6 (35:27):
Coming home at two o'clock in the morning.

Speaker 6 (36:00):
You needn't bother, I'll get them myself.
Speaker 3 (36:03):
You don't mean you're going home alone?
Speaker 6 (36:06):
No, I'm going with Olivia?
Speaker 3 (36:08):
What about me?
Speaker 7 (36:09):
I don't care what you do.
Speaker 6 (36:11):
Stay here if you like, I don't care.
Speaker 3 (36:14):
Oh no, and that ain't no way to talk. You
don't mean that, Mama, Yes I do.
Speaker 7 (36:20):
And I wouldn't care if I never saw you again.
Speaker 6 (36:23):
That's how much I mean it.
Speaker 2 (36:24):
Oh.
Speaker 3 (36:25):
Oh, mama, Here wait a second, mama.
Speaker 2 (36:30):
Oh guys, recaus for station identification. This is the Columbia
Broadcasting System. Since the advent of sound pictures just ten
(37:04):
years ago, Hollywood has become the world's largest colony of musicians.
Victor Young is an outstanding member of this group. His
career as a violinist ended abruptly when Victor tore up
a five hundred dollars a week contract because it called
for popular music. Then he changed his mind. Although symphonic
music still dominates his private life. Victor has composed over
(37:27):
sixty popular songs. The first one he wrote Sweets Sue
was an immediate hit. A composer and conductor at Paramount Studios,
he also directs the orchestra on the show Chateau Radio
Hour Saturday Nights. Ladies and gentlemen, mister Victor Young, thank you.
Speaker 13 (37:49):
Mister de mill I've had many surprises since coming to Hollywood,
but none as great as discovering Coach. As he asked
the picture, stars are about good music. Joe Crawford, who
is studying voice, is a steady patron of concerts. Edward Robinson,
who won his famous Gunman Rolls, is happiest when he's
conducting an orchestra and his daughter's an excellent singer.
Speaker 3 (38:08):
Take Wally Berry. He invites you to his home for dinner,
and all you do is listen to his little daughter.
Carol Anne played the piano.
Speaker 13 (38:15):
Alista Landi is a pianist and composer, so is Lionel Barrymore.
Loretta Young seldom misses a concert, while Myrna Lloyd, Glorius
Wanson and Herbert Marshall are all great music lovers.
Speaker 2 (38:25):
Most of our stars were present a few weeks ago
at Leopold Stokowski's concert in the Hollywood Bowl when Victor
conducted the first rendition of his remarkable musical pictures of
the desert known as Arizona Sketchers.
Speaker 3 (38:37):
I've got a confession to make about that composition. I've
never been near Arizona, and.
Speaker 2 (38:41):
Bez they've never been to Spain when he wrote common
Do you realize solely on the imagination?
Speaker 3 (38:46):
Victor?
Speaker 13 (38:46):
When composing well, I get a lot of inspiration playing poker.
Speaker 2 (38:51):
Huh, collecting other paper's notes h No, I always lose.
But the other day I was told to write a
song for Carol.
Speaker 3 (38:57):
Loambert's next picture. So I played poker.
Speaker 13 (39:00):
As I was driving home four thirty in the morning.
I ran into a tune, stopped the car, and wrote
it on the back of an envelope. I once wrote
a song on the back of a lock soap wrapper.
If the tune was as good as the soap, I
would have had a real hit. Frankly, mister de Mill,
the hardest thing about being a musical conductor is to
be invited to talk on the radio program.
Speaker 2 (39:19):
I'd much rather play, then, Why not play the song
you wrote for Mary ellis latest picture, Fatal Lady, You
wos Ador?
Speaker 3 (39:25):
I'd be glad to I'd be the hip.
Speaker 2 (41:01):
Back to our play the photograph with Wallace Bury and
an all star cast featuring Clara Kimball, Young Marjorie Rambo,
Cecilia Parker and Eric Lindon. It's early the next morning.
In the sunny dining room. Olivia sits at a small
table waiting for her breakfast. Lawrence Ogo, attired and a
(41:24):
waited apron, comes to her side and addresses her in
respectful tones in.
Speaker 9 (41:29):
Good morning, miss, you care for your breakfast now?
Speaker 4 (41:32):
Yes, i'd like him, Laurence Ogo?
Speaker 9 (41:34):
Yes, miss?
Speaker 4 (41:35):
What are you doing in that apron?
Speaker 9 (41:37):
Well, I'm a waiter, mss the waiter.
Speaker 10 (41:39):
Why, Well, I had to do something. I haven't any money,
you know, so I asked the manager for a job
and got it. Oh never nine dollars a week and keeps.
I've got it all figured out. If I hold this
job and bank all my tips, I would have enough
money saved up to get out of here by Christmas.
Speaker 4 (41:53):
Well easter, it's the latest, Lawrence Oger, you're a fool.
Speaker 9 (41:55):
Yes, miss, Well, you have some grepe fruit.
Speaker 4 (41:57):
Listen to me.
Speaker 9 (41:58):
The melon's particularly nicest.
Speaker 2 (41:59):
More.
Speaker 4 (42:00):
If you say miss to me again, I'll scream yesment, listen,
Lawrence Silbill, you go right out to the office this
minute and resign. I'll see that you get back home.
Speaker 3 (42:07):
All right.
Speaker 9 (42:08):
I'm sorry, miss, but I've got to see to that myself.
Speaker 4 (42:10):
You refuse to accept any help, Oh.
Speaker 10 (42:12):
Not at all if you could find it in your
heart to leave an extra large tip, say fifteen cents
or maybe twenty.
Speaker 4 (42:17):
Oh why you're so stubborn.
Speaker 10 (42:19):
Well I'll tell you why. Because I've been a failure.
But worse than that, I've been a cheap, egatistical faker.
I knew that last night walking out across the desert
with you by my side. You remember what I said
you were moonstruck. Well sunshining now, then you're sun struck.
Speaker 2 (42:34):
Anyway.
Speaker 9 (42:35):
I made a decision last night.
Speaker 10 (42:36):
I determined that I had to work and work hard
to get back my self respect because well, because someday
I'm going to marry the finest girl in the world.
Speaker 4 (42:43):
Are you sure she'll have you?
Speaker 9 (42:45):
Absolutely? When that girl marries, she's got to marry a man.
Speaker 4 (42:49):
Her parents might object to her marrying a waiter in
an Arab hotel.
Speaker 9 (42:52):
Oh, and I guess I'm out of luck.
Speaker 6 (42:54):
You will be laurences O gil.
Speaker 4 (42:55):
If Papa comes down and finds you dressed up like that,
he'll laugh you off the map.
Speaker 9 (42:58):
Oh he's done already.
Speaker 6 (43:00):
Sure did he see you?
Speaker 9 (43:02):
Well, yes and no. He looked at me when I
spoke to him, But I doubt if he really saw me.
I think he's in a daze or something.
Speaker 10 (43:08):
Poor Papa.
Speaker 9 (43:09):
Where is he now outside on the porch.
Speaker 10 (43:11):
He's been walking up and down out there all morning,
up and down, back and forth.
Speaker 9 (43:15):
Must be something on his mind.
Speaker 3 (43:27):
Think. Uh, good morning, missus Dumberrow.
Speaker 7 (43:31):
I have been looking for you. Yeah, MISSI Dinker, I
heard last night what you said to your wife.
Speaker 3 (43:37):
Yeah, I guess the whole hotel heard it.
Speaker 7 (43:40):
I am sorry, terribly sorry.
Speaker 3 (43:43):
Oh that's all right. It wasn't your fault, missus Gumrow.
My wife, well, she just don't understand, that's all. She
won't give me a chance to explain anything.
Speaker 7 (43:53):
She is going to win.
Speaker 3 (43:54):
Yeah, I guess.
Speaker 7 (43:55):
So I am leaving too, you when this morning? Now
I could not stay after causing so so much trouble
for you all. Listen, No, no, it was my fault everything,
But I will try to make it right again, Miss
your tinker. I will go to your wife I would say,
take him back, missus tinker. He is the nicest man
(44:16):
I have ever known.
Speaker 3 (44:17):
No, no, no, you better not say that, missus Barbara
will tell it. But why it is the truth, maybe,
but you know, Mama's kind of funny about them their things. No,
I don't think you better say anything to it at all.
Speaker 7 (44:31):
But she will leave, she will get the divorce.
Speaker 3 (44:33):
No, yeah, yeah, she kind of hanted it that. And
what would you do then? I haven't thought about that.
Ain't very nice, you know. When I start out on
this vacation, all hopped up about seeing the world and
having a good time, and now, well, love, what's happened?
(44:54):
Old business gone to smash. I wish i'd never left.
Speaker 9 (44:58):
Omahall, miss your tinker.
Speaker 7 (45:00):

Of course, you got sea sick, Olivia got her husband.
That kind of makes up far Oh, yes, I made
a honeysuckle in impresario, say, ugly, you're a pretty smart fella,
(49:36):
ain't you. Well, maybe well tell me something, will you?
What in the blazes is an impresario?
Speaker 2 (49:54):
He leaves the Pluto tract. I mean, even if he's
returned to Omaha, but for Karl Wallasteri and Cecilia park
Up back to the microphone. Shortly today, the world's most
popular screen personality is celebrating the eighth anniversary of his
debut in films. He has awards from nine different nations.
President Roosevelt, Queen Mary, and Benito Mussolini are among his
(50:15):
most ardent admirers. In Alaska, he's warmly received by the Eskimos,
while in Ethiopia. Even the war failed to stop the
showing of his pictures. In France, where he won membership
in the Legion of Honor, he's known as Michel Suri.
The Japanese call him Mikikucci, the Spanish Miguel Ratanito. His name,
(50:36):
as you may have surmised, is Mickey Mouse. To Mickey,
the world owes an immense debt of gratitude, But a
still greater debt is due the man standing beside me now,
ladies and gentlemen, the creator of Mickey Mouse and the
Silly Symphony cartoons, mister Walt Disney. Thank you, mister the mill.
Speaker 14 (50:57):
My knees are knocking together so hardly, sound like a
rivity machine.
Speaker 3 (51:01):
Maybe I'd better sit down.
Speaker 2 (51:02):
Come on, well, stand up to the microphone. Are you
a man or a mouse?
Speaker 3 (51:05):
Well?
Speaker 14 (51:06):
After associating with mice for so many years, I sometimes wonder.
Speaker 3 (51:09):
Myself, you see.
Speaker 14 (51:10):
As a matter of fact, Mickey and I have been
paled long before he became an actor. His real name
is Mortimer, but no regular fellow likes a name like Mortimer,
so he changed his name to Mickey.
Speaker 2 (51:19):
But it does nothing to Walt Disney made the first
cartoon in sound, Ladies and gentlemen, that Mickey attained star proportions.
That film was called Steamboat Willie, and it was the
late Roxy who had the courage to release it. I
suppose Walt that the motion picture industry thought you were
crazy to put sound in an animated cartoon.
Speaker 14 (51:37):
Yes, completely met.
Speaker 2 (51:39):
Do you know what they're saying about you today, now
that you are making the first feature length animated picture,
Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs?
Speaker 14 (51:45):
I can imagine what have you heard?
Speaker 3 (51:47):
Now?
Speaker 2 (51:48):
Perhaps you better imagine that too. Anyway, how do you
feel about it?
Speaker 14 (51:52):
Well, mister nemil, any pictures a gamble, but we're betting
three quarters of a million dollars that Snow White will
be good entertainment.
Speaker 2 (51:58):
My bets on you. And now, ladies and gentlemen, I
think we should course examine the young fellow on whom
Walt that his money eight years ago. Mickey Mouse take
the stand, Yes, mister Demill. Mickey, how does it feel
to have the whole world celebrating your birthday? Yes, mister Demill,
I mean swell, who's the better actor? Mickey? You are
(52:19):
Donald Duck?
Speaker 14 (52:19):
Oh gosh, I don't know Mickey's an actor. Mister Demill, Donald,
just a clown, nicky.
Speaker 2 (52:31):
Is it true that you're jealous of Donald Duck's meteoric
rise to fame? Oh absolutely not.
Speaker 3 (52:37):
Mister Demill.
Speaker 14 (52:38):
Donald was starving to death singing in radio when Mickey
found him.
Speaker 2 (52:42):
I remember, I remember on the airwaves. He was like
a duck out of water.
Speaker 14 (52:46):
Yeah, just a wise quacker, Donald, Donald, Donald, get off
mister de Mill's neck.
Speaker 3 (52:54):
Let go, Let go there.
Speaker 2 (52:56):
Now that's more like it. Remember you're a star now, yeah, and.
Speaker 12 (53:00):
He's got a ballet who washes his face with what soap?
Speaker 3 (53:05):
Swow?
Speaker 2 (53:09):
Donald Duck, you've denied being the worst singer in the
annals of radio. All right, prove it sing and it'd
better be good. Donald, I apologize, You're wonderful. Thank you,
(53:42):
wal Good night, Mickey, night, mister the Mill, Good night,
mister the Mill, And as you like it. Shakespeare says
that each man in his time plays many parts, but
surely a few have played so many parts so well
as Wallace Berry, whilely I think has been everything except
the leading lady. But here he is now leading a
(54:05):
lady to our microphone. Wallace Berry and Cecilia Parker.
Speaker 3 (54:12):
I thank you mister Demil, he gave my history wrong.
I was a leading lady once. My first part in
pictures was as a beautiful Swedish housemaid.
Speaker 2 (54:22):
Were you as beautiful then? While as you are now?
Speaker 3 (54:26):
Well, Cecilia Parker here takes care of the good Looks department.
Maybe I should say the good Lucks department.
Speaker 4 (54:33):
Well, of course you should say the luxe department, although
I guess it isn't really news that I use lucks soup.
Practically every star in Hollywood does. But honestly, mister Demillon,
you shouldn't say one or he's good looking. I think
he's beautiful.
Speaker 3 (54:45):
Thanks, well, I guess I'm the only one in Hollywood
who wasn't even considered for the part of Romeo.
Speaker 6 (54:52):
But you got just as great a part in your
new picture, Old Hutch.
Speaker 2 (54:55):
Well, the only difference is instead of making you a
great lover, they made you a great loafer.
Speaker 3 (55:01):
You know I always carry my critic along with me,
my daughter Carol Anne. You know, maybe you'd like to
hear from here. Come here, Carol, Carol, this is miss
Parker and mister de Mill.
Speaker 6 (55:11):
How you do mister de mil?
Speaker 2 (55:12):
You know mister de Miller has directed some of the
greatest pictures ever made.
Speaker 3 (55:16):
You know, for instance, Uh, did you ever hear of
clear popa yeaddy?
Speaker 6 (55:20):
I can't say that word, but that you, mister de Mill.
Speaker 2 (55:25):
I'm afraid not, Carol. That's the first time I've been
mistaken for the Siren of the Nile.
Speaker 4 (55:30):
You see, Carol, mister de Mill produces this program for
Lux Toilet Soup. Oh I know about LUs toilet shop.
Speaker 6 (55:37):
I washed my daughter's face with it. She won't let
me use anything else.
Speaker 3 (55:42):
Yeah, true, Hollywood doll. Well the next the next time
that you wash your face, don't dump those SuDS on
the ladies parrot next door, will you please? Now we
forgot to ask you how how you were sitting out there?
How did you like the show?
Speaker 6 (55:56):
The show was all like, But why didn't you do something?
Speaker 3 (56:01):
I can always tell when you're tired and sleepy and
time to go home? Well, mister Gimli, I think we
better say good night, good night Rally, good night.
Speaker 6 (56:09):
Miss mister, good night, Miss Talkers.
Speaker 4 (56:12):
Good night cat.
Speaker 2 (56:13):
