Shenley Laboratories, producer of Penicillin, Shenley and Shenley Pharmaceuticals presents
Beyond Core. There Beyond Core Theater play Tonight Now Voyageer.
Our star is Maureen O'Sullivan. Tonight, Shenley Laboratories presents another
(00:37):
in a new series of great dramatic programs. Some of
our stories are fact the struggles and accomplishments of great
men of medicine. Others are fiction stories of devotion to
an ideal individual, heroism or courage. By these programs, Shenley
Laboratories would remind you that medical science and progress is
not cold in personal research or pages of statistics, but
(01:01):
her warm human story told in living terms, whether it's
the life of one of medicine's immortals or the everyday
record of service rendered by your own physician.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
Now Now Voyager starring Marin o.
Speaker 1 (01:27):
Sullivan with George Zuko and Elliott Lewis. In his study
in his Great Sanitarium, a Cascades, New York, the world
(01:49):
renowned psychiatrist doctor Henry jack WoT sits writing in his journal,
I met Charlotte Vave for the first time in her
own home. Her sister Lisa had come to me and
asked me if I would considered taking Charlotte's case. There
were details about it that interest in me, so I
went to Boston. The moment I met Charlotte's mother, I
begun to understand a lot of things.
Speaker 3 (02:09):
Charlotte was a late child, Doctor Jack with the child
of my old age. I've always called her. I was
well into buy forties when she was born. Her father
passed on soon after, my ugly duckling. Of course, it's
true that all late in life children are marked.
Speaker 2 (02:26):
Well laugh, and such children are not wanted that can
mark them.
Speaker 3 (02:29):
I've kept her close by me always when she was young, foolish,
I made decisions for and always the right decisions. You
would think a child would wish to repay your mother's
love and kindness.
Speaker 4 (02:40):
Yes, mother, Hello Lisa, Charlotte Darling. This is my very
good friend, doctor jacque With. I wanted him to see you.
Speaker 2 (02:47):
How do you do miss fail?
Speaker 4 (02:49):
Doctor jack With.
Speaker 3 (02:51):
Lisa feels that your recent peculiarities, your fits of crying,
your secretiveness indicate that you're on the verge of a
nervous breakdown. Is that what your trying to achieve? I know, no,
No has a sanitarium in Vermont, I believe probably one
of those places with a high wire fence and yawling
in Nates.
Speaker 5 (03:09):
Well, now, I wouldn't want anyone to have that mistaken notion.
Cascade is just a place in the country. People come
there when they're tired. You go to the sea Shaw.
They come there.
Speaker 3 (03:19):
The very word psychiatry, Doctor jack with doesn't there freely
with shame. Charlotte, my daughter, a member of Half Heavens.
Speaker 5 (03:27):
There's nothing shameful in my work, or frightening or anything else.
It's very simple, really, what I try to do. People
walk walk along a road. They come to a fork
in the road. They're confused. They don't know which way
to take. I just put up a signpost, not that way,
this way.
Speaker 4 (03:45):
If you'll excuse me, miss.
Speaker 5 (03:48):
Vail, wait, don't run away and look. I wonder if
I might ask you a favor. Will you be nice
enough to show me around the house. It's such a
beautiful place, and one does not get the chance to
see these old Boston houses.
Speaker 2 (04:03):
I'd rather like to see what your room is like.
Speaker 4 (04:06):
I'm not your patience yet, doctor, of course not.
Speaker 5 (04:09):
I've seen the rooms of a lot of people who
aren't my patients, my friends. I'd hope that you and I,
but of course if you'd rather not.
Speaker 4 (04:17):
It's on the floor above. When I was seventeen, I
stayed up once and till after midnight. That stair tread
hasn't been fixed. In here we are. She locks her door.
Make a note of a doctor. That's significant, isn't it?
Speaker 5 (04:33):
Well? It signifies it's your door. I have never heard
it said that a woman's home is not her castle.
Speaker 4 (04:38):
Here it is doctor my castle.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
Her castle.
Speaker 5 (04:43):
A set of mahogany furniture selected by her mother, very
obviously selected by her mother. A picture of the Colisea
in my moonlight, an etching of pigeons, and mark square
a Gloucester Sea scene. On one side of the room
was a workbench completed with a set of tools for
carving ivory. On the bench there was some raw ivory,
a half finished figurine, and two exquisitely designed boxes.
Speaker 2 (05:09):
Did you do this?
Speaker 4 (05:11):
Why shouldn't I?
Speaker 2 (05:12):
The point is how you could? They're beautiful.
Speaker 5 (05:15):
I have a very real admiration for people who are
clever with their hands.
Speaker 4 (05:19):
You may have one of them if you like.
Speaker 5 (05:20):
I would indeed, Well, that's very kind of you. I'm
very fond of such things, are you. I wouldn't have
to have a cigarette hidden the way someplace, would you?
Speaker 4 (05:31):
Do you think I hide cigarettes in my room? Doctor, No,
it isn't that.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
But I must have left mine in my car.
Speaker 4 (05:36):
Where do I hide them? Doctor? On the shelves, behind
the books, cigarettes and medicated sherry, and the books that
my mother would never allow me to read. A whole
secret life hidden up here behind the locked door. You're
very perceiving, doctor.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
Your mother's quite a tyrant, isn't she.
Speaker 4 (05:53):
My mother's kept everything she could out of my life.
When I was twenty, I fell in love. But the
man wasn't good for a veil of Boston. What man
is suitable, doctor? She never found one. What man would
come along and look at me and say I want you?
I'm fat? My mother disapproves of the faulderols of diet.
Look at these shoes. My mother approves of sensible shoes.
(06:16):
Look at the books on my shelves. My mother approves
of good, solid books. I'm my mother's well loved daughter.
I'm a companion, her servant, my mother, my mother, my mother.
Speaker 5 (06:30):
You'll never get a love pair of eyes, as your
mother would say, if you spoil them with tears.
Speaker 4 (06:34):
Doctor Jacquin, can't you help me? When we were talking downstairs,
you talked about a fork in the road. There so
many other folks further along the road, so many.
Speaker 5 (06:52):
Put away your book and mipe off your eyeglasses and
come downstairs. I am going to suggest to your mother
that you come to Cascades for a few weeks of
sun and rest and dire to Charlotte Vale weeks while
(07:15):
her tears retreated and her hands became more steady.
Speaker 2 (07:18):
As time passed. With her sister Lisa's help, her appearance
was changed.
Speaker 5 (07:23):
The sensible shoes disappeared for more attractive ones, her hair
was cut to hang loose on her shoulders, and her
clothes were chosen to set off her new personality. Outward
lest she was a completely poised, lovely woman.
Speaker 4 (07:37):
But inwardly, Hello Charlotte, Hello Lisa, Doctor Jack with certainly
is beautiful out here in the gardens. Oh yes, isn't
it doctor Jack who tells me you're almost well?
Speaker 2 (07:46):
She is?
Speaker 4 (07:47):
He says, I'm well enough to leave here now, but
I've got to go home. Oh Lisa, I dread it.
I dread it. Horribly. That's awful. I suppose not to
want to go home and be.
Speaker 5 (07:58):
With Stop look and listen New England conscience.
Speaker 4 (08:03):
On the track. Well, you may not have to go home.
May I tell her doctor Jacks?
Speaker 5 (08:08):
Oh later, maybe you'll see how she behaves. We have
a scheme, your relative and I what is it? You'll
find it out in good time. This morning, Charlotte, during
your office appointment with me, I referred to a quotation.
Speaker 4 (08:23):
Remember you said it was from Walt Whitman, but you
couldn't quote it.
Speaker 5 (08:27):
Oh that's right, Well I've I've had it looked up
and typed for you on a stiff of paper. If
old Walt didn't have you in mind when he wrote this,
he had hundreds of others like you.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
He's put into words.
Speaker 5 (08:37):
But I'd like to say to you now, and far
better than I could ever express it here read it.
Speaker 4 (08:43):
I'm told want by life and land near granted. Now
voyagers sailed our forth to seek and find.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
She was nervous when she started on the cruise to
South America, and.
Speaker 5 (09:08):
She kept pretty much to herself. The first night, you
didn't have the courage to go down to dinner. But
on the second she remembered that I had said, pull
your own weight, forget your hide bound New England, and
I bend.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
Be interested in everything and everybody. Be nice to every
human being who crosses your path. This is your table,
Miss Vale, Thank you, Miss Vale. May I present mister Durant.
I hope you don't mind jarring at table. But since
you were both traveling.
Speaker 4 (09:36):
Alone, No, no, not at all.
Speaker 6 (09:39):
My name is Jeremiah Duvaux Durance if you'd like to
hear it, and it's silly entirety. I was Jad in college.
My wife calls me j Duvaux, and I'm Jerry to
my friends.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
How about you? Who are you? What are you? Where
do you come from?
Speaker 4 (09:53):
Well, I'm not quite sure who I am. If clothes
make the name, then at present time, my sister Lisa.
If it's the shoes, I'm her sister June, her daughter June.
She picked mine. They were the same size, you see.
But if it's I whom inside I well, I appear
on the passenger list to Charlotte Vale, Boston, Massachusetts.
Speaker 6 (10:15):
I've heard of Boston and the name Veil like Bunker
Hill rings a familiar bell. Will you go dancing in
the lounge with me after dinner, Miss Charlotte of Boston.
Speaker 4 (10:24):
I'm afraid I'm not a very good dance.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
Neither am I.
Speaker 6 (10:26):
But I have a feeling about us. I have a
feeling we're going to dance very well together. I have
a wonderful feeling about you and me, Miss Charlotte.
Speaker 4 (10:45):
Oh, it's wonderful up here on deck, isn't it the air?
Here's a taste to it, great intoxication.
Speaker 6 (10:50):
I'm afraid the ship will be in Rio all day tomorrow.
Will you have lunch with me and help me do
some shopping for my daughters?
Speaker 4 (10:56):
Your daughters?
Speaker 2 (10:57):
Yes? Here, I'll show you a picture.
Speaker 4 (11:01):
Who is that knitting?
Speaker 6 (11:03):
It's Isabelle, my wife. The picture isn't very good of Isabelle.
She'd only looked up and smiled. That's Beatrice by her,
And that's Tina sitting with her legs crossed. We hope
she won't have to wear glasses always. Tina wouldn't smile
for me either. She's convinced she's an ugly duckling.
Speaker 4 (11:24):
Does Tina know she wasn't wanted?
Speaker 2 (11:27):
That's an odd remark.
Speaker 4 (11:28):
Oh, I'm sorry. I really shouldn't have said that.
Speaker 6 (11:30):
It's odd because it hit so close to the truth
even before she was born. Her mother said, oh, never
mind that. By the way, I have something for you.
I don't know the first thing about perfumery, but the
clerk said, this was all right.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
It's a it's a mixture of several kinds of flowers.
It's called Jolie. Fleur reminded me of you.
Speaker 4 (11:58):
Oh, Jerry, Jerry, you know this is the first. You're
the first man. This is my first present from the man.
Speaker 6 (12:08):
I'm glad I could give you your first present. I'm glad
I could be the first man to give you one.
I wish things were different. I wish I could be
the last man and all the others in between.
Speaker 4 (12:21):
That was right. The air is intoxicating.
Speaker 2 (12:25):
It isn't the air, my darling. It's the moment, and
it's you.
Speaker 5 (12:40):
There were other friends of Jerry Durance's on the ship,
a young couple who had been friends of his for years.
On the morning the ship, doctor Trio, Jerry and Mick
were playing dick tennis and Charlottan Meck's wife Deb sat talking.
Speaker 7 (12:53):
Oh, I haven't heard Jerry laugh like that and years.
You're good for him, Charlotte, Oh, Honestly, when I see
what a woman like Isabel can do to a man
like Jerry, it makes me boil. She doesn't love here
more her children, She doesn't love anyone but herself.
Speaker 4 (13:06):
Please do you mind? I don't want to hear any
more about it.
Speaker 2 (13:08):
I think you should.
Speaker 7 (13:09):
Why she even made Jerry give up his architecture because
she wanted him to do something that would bring in
money more quickly, and he could have been a fine architect.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
Hey, what are you getting so clubby about it?
Speaker 7 (13:21):
Just talking? Play with me back?
Speaker 4 (13:27):
Look, Jerry, we're getting into the harbor. Look, this is
the one side in the world that's better than the
picture postcards. You shouldn't miss this moment, Jerry. There's only
one first sailing into real harbor. See over there, this.
Speaker 6 (13:39):
Is my getting off place. Yes, your boat goes on
in three days when.
Speaker 4 (13:42):
I see you, Not unless you pay more attention to
your guide. Thank you on your left over there, that's right,
we'll take a cable car at the top. Up on
that mountain. There's something to please your architect's heart.
Speaker 2 (13:54):
Did tell you why I used to be an architect?
Speaker 4 (13:56):
Look at it, Jerry, the Christas statue. You wouldn't from
here that there's a way to get to the top
that there is. We'll get there. They say that it's
the closest, the closest that you can get to Heaven.
Speaker 1 (14:20):
In a moment, we'll return to our play now Voyager
and our star Maureen O'Sullivan. But first, an important message
from our sponsor concerning one of humanity's great healing aids,
a sound mind in a sound body. Down through the ages,
physicians everywhere have dedicated themselves, their lives, their studies to
the end that more and more people might enjoy mental
(14:42):
as well as physical health. Your own family doctor, through
his training and his understanding, is directing his energies toward
the attainment of this ideal. He is also reading and
studying constantly the findings of research workers in laboratories all
over America, laboratories such as those maintained by at Shenley Laboratories.
An extensive program of continuing research has developed many specialized
(15:06):
penicillin product, penicillin tablets and trophies, penicillin ointment and a
found appointment for the treatment of certain infections of the eye.
In the future as well, Shenley Laboratories will continue devoting
its interests to the cause of medical progress in studying
the healing possibilities of drugs derived from fermentation processes and
(15:26):
other drugs as well. Shenley hopes sincerely to contribute a
share in expanding the frontiers of medical knowledge, and thereby
to aid your doctor in his work of keeping you well.
Now the second act of Now Voyager starring Marin O.
Sullivan with George Zuko and Elliot Lewis in the study
(16:03):
of his sanitarium Cascades a great psychiatrist, doctor Jacques Sits
riding in his journal.
Speaker 5 (16:09):
Charlotte Vale was definitely on the mend, no more hysteria,
no more grief. But she was up against a great
problem now, and her future peace of mind depended completely
on her response to the problem.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
The Voyager had sailed.
Speaker 5 (16:21):
Forth head thought had found on the third day that
the ship had remained in Rio. She and Jerry went
for a ride high on the mountains above Rio. The
driver missed a turn and the car rolled over the
mountain into a small plateau. Halfway down the mountain.
Speaker 2 (16:42):
I'm mother in heaven, what have my dog?
Speaker 7 (16:45):
I said, go forward the curse? She just went back
with you killed Divert Senor sire, are you dead?
Speaker 2 (16:52):
Sure?
Speaker 7 (16:56):
Car he formerly so beautiful.
Speaker 4 (17:00):
That's all right, you are right.
Speaker 2 (17:01):
I told her to go forward. She just go back.
Please send you.
Speaker 4 (17:04):
I was descending to the valley to get the cover
out of a cord.
Speaker 2 (17:08):
Well, sen, you are saying your remain What did he say?
Speaker 4 (17:15):
I hope he said he'll get a horse in a row.
Speaker 2 (17:19):
It's beginning the storm.
Speaker 4 (17:20):
There's some sort of a shelter over there.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
Come on, we'll run for it.
Speaker 4 (17:34):
You must have been a boy scout. That's a beautiful fire.
You're very quiet. What are you thinking about?
Speaker 6 (17:42):
I was pretending, or wishing, you might even call it praying.
I was thinking how wonderful it would be if you
and I were the only two people in the world.
Speaker 2 (17:53):
We could stay here forever.
Speaker 4 (17:55):
Oh, you get to be my age. You don't pretend anymore.
You know there are no such thing as fairy tales
or happy endings.
Speaker 2 (18:03):
We'll be friends, you and I all our lives.
Speaker 4 (18:06):
And do you really believe it?
Speaker 2 (18:07):
Yes, at least I want to believe it.
Speaker 6 (18:11):
I want to believe that there's a chance for such
happiness as this to be carried on somehow.
Speaker 8 (18:15):
Somewhere in a few days, this will be gone, my
footprints in the snow, leaving no trace when the snow melts,
leaving nothing except.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
What we remember, all our lives. Wherever you are, wherever
I am.
Speaker 6 (18:35):
We are, what our memories are. Whoever gave us this
chance to be near each other, We'll give us only
one chance.
Speaker 2 (18:44):
Darling, why are you crying?
Speaker 6 (18:48):
Don't you know what I'm saying? Don't you realize I
love you?
Speaker 4 (18:54):
I know, and I can't believe it. I suppose he
is it really tears of gratitude, an old maid's gratitude
for the crumbs of it.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
Please don't talk like that.
Speaker 4 (19:07):
No one ever called me darling before you did, Darling, Cherry, Darling.
Speaker 5 (19:25):
It never was any more than that, a few gay hours,
a blinding moment of revelation. But the two people who
lived it would never be the same again. They had
the intelligence to recognize love. They had the strength to
put it by. Charlotte Vale came back a vibrant, glowing,
confident person, and one that seemed completely happy if you
(19:48):
didn't look too deeply in her eyes. She was very
lonely for what she'd found and lust. She came to
Cascades for a few weeks of rest before going home,
and there she met Tina Durance, Jerry's child. I didn't
know at that time she knew Duranz and it was
completely accidental that Tina was in the next room to Charlotte.
(20:08):
She heard Tina cry, and she opened the door and
went in.
Speaker 4 (20:12):
Oh, hello, go away.
Speaker 7 (20:14):
I know who you are, and I don't like you.
Speaker 4 (20:16):
You do? Who am I?
Speaker 7 (20:18):
You're my new nurse?
Speaker 4 (20:19):
You're wrong, I'm your new neighbor. How long have you
been a cascade? Ten days?
Speaker 7 (20:25):
Nearly eleven?
Speaker 4 (20:26):
And you don't like it very much? Doing? No? Now
that did I at the end of ten days? For
the first two weeks are the worst? Said, you have
the jigsaw puzzle?
Speaker 8 (20:36):
Uh huh?
Speaker 4 (20:37):
Will you let me help you work it? Come here,
miss Charlotte, Miss Charlotte, Tina Darling, what's the matter?
Speaker 7 (20:57):
Can I sleep in here with you?
Speaker 4 (20:58):
Of course you can. Oh, something happened, something terrible, Oh
that awful this morning? Says there would be a.
Speaker 3 (21:05):
Nurser for me tomorrow night.
Speaker 4 (21:07):
Why must I have a nurse?
Speaker 7 (21:09):
Nobody, my aches nurse.
Speaker 4 (21:11):
I'll be some a shame. No, no, Tina, Tina, listen
to me. Listen, Tina, I'll talk to them tomorrow, I'll
ask them to give you another trial without a nurse.
M I'm an old friend of doctor jack Wits, and
I'll tell him too. You leave it to me. You
good to me.
Speaker 8 (21:28):
Why are you so good to me?
Speaker 4 (21:30):
Oh? Lots of reasons, but one is enough. There was
someone who was good to me once when I needed someone.
I'll go to sleep, Tina, and I'll tell you a story. Yeah,
I'll turn the bed down now. Then close your eyes,
make your muscles go all limp, and I'll tell you
a story that's better. Now, pretend you're a child, because
(21:51):
this story may be too young for you. Once upon
a time there was a little girl, doctor Jack with
I have a proposition to make.
Speaker 5 (22:08):
My nurse's telling me you're running cascades. Now you've had
Tina hiking, dancing, playing tennis. I thought you came up
here to have another nervous breakdown.
Speaker 4 (22:15):
Well, I decaid not to have it. It was all the
same to you. I'm not doing anything with my time.
Couldn't I take care of Tina instead of a nurse.
I promised to ask you about everything I.
Speaker 2 (22:25):
Have already canceled the nurse. Just go ahead, tell me
what you do.
Speaker 4 (22:28):
Oh, I just be with her. I pay her attention
and make her feel wanted and important, and then as
soon as you let me, I take her to Boston
for holiday.
Speaker 2 (22:36):
Why do you take such great personal interest in Tina?
Speaker 4 (22:39):
Well, I know her father. He was on my cruisey.
I thought perhaps you knew. I don't see how you couldn't,
except that you seem to know so many things.
Speaker 2 (22:50):
No, I didn't know.
Speaker 5 (22:51):
If I had known, I certainly want to advise you
to come to Cascades at present. I had no idea
you'd ever met Durant's know how I emertionally involved you
are with him, But I can't work in the dark
when as a child in the picture.
Speaker 4 (23:05):
Well, i'll tell you everything. It's over. It's everything in
two words, doctor, it's over, Doctor Jack with Tina needs
me and I need her.
Speaker 5 (23:16):
Well, I'm crazy, But if you promise to behave yourself, oh,
I'll tell her that you're only on probation. Remember what
it says in the Bible, the Lord giveth and the
Lord taketh away.
Speaker 4 (23:27):
How does it feel to be the Lord?
Speaker 5 (23:29):
Not so very wonderful? Since the free will bills passed
to little power.
Speaker 4 (23:34):
I love you, doctor, Jaques, I.
Speaker 2 (23:36):
Love you, Charlotte Vale.
Speaker 5 (23:45):
Charlotte and Tina brought great good to one another and
great happiness. Charlotte found the child she had missed, and
Tina the mother. I got permission from Durance for Tina
to go to Boston the Charlotte, and many months later
I took him down on the me to visit them.
I was a little nervous about that meeting, and more
than a little apprehensive when Charlotte and Jerry went in
(24:06):
the library and closed the door.
Speaker 4 (24:09):
How do you like your daughter, Jerry?
Speaker 2 (24:11):
She's lovely, But Charlotte, I'm going to take her home.
Speaker 4 (24:14):
Oh no, no, you can't. Oh. Doctor Jack has said
it would be the worst thing in the world for
Tina to go home.
Speaker 2 (24:19):
Now, I don't care what he says.
Speaker 6 (24:21):
No self respecting man could allow such self sacrifices yours
to go on.
Speaker 4 (24:24):
Indefinitely the most conventional, pretentious, pious speech I've ever heard
you make in your life, Jerry, I simply don't know.
Speaker 6 (24:30):
You can't go on forever taking taking from you and
giving nothing.
Speaker 4 (24:33):
Don't it, Jerry, Don't you see you will be giving?
Don't you know that to take is to give? Sometimes
the most beautiful way in the world of two people
love each other. Or besides, Jerry, you'll be giving me Tina.
Every single day. I'll be taking, taking, taking, and you'll
be giving.
Speaker 6 (24:52):
I don't want my child to come along and take
your whole life when you should be spending it with
some man who'll make you happy.
Speaker 4 (24:58):
Oh, so that's it, some man to make me happy. Here,
if I've been living under the delusion that you and
I were so in sympathy that you knew without being told,
what would make me happy. When Tina wanted to come
home with me and stay, it was like a miracle happening,
and I allowed myself to indulge in the fancy that
both of us loving her and doing what was best
for her together would make us seem actually like our
(25:19):
child after a while. But I see that I've been
just a big sentimental.
Speaker 2 (25:23):
Walt go of me now I know.
Speaker 6 (25:27):
Now, I know that it won't die what's between us,
do what we will, ignore it, neglect it, starve it
stronger than both of us together.
Speaker 2 (25:36):
Oh, Charlotte, let me.
Speaker 4 (25:37):
Go, Jerry. Jerry. Doctor jack With knows about us. When
he let me take Tina, he said, you're on probation.
You know what he means. He allowed me this visit
of yours. But it's a test. If I can't stand
such tests, I'll lose Tina in time, and we lose
each other. Jerry, Jerry, will you help me? So?
Speaker 2 (26:05):
Shall we just have a cigarette on it? Thank you?
May I come here sometimes whenever you like.
Speaker 4 (26:13):
It's your home too. People who love you live here.
Speaker 6 (26:17):
And may I sometimes smoke a cigarette with you and
just sit here with you an understanding silence.
Speaker 4 (26:23):
Of course, we can always light our cigarettes from the
same flame. That is, if you'll help me keep what
we have, if we both try hard to protect that
little strip of territory that's been given to us. I
can talk to you once in a while about your child.
Speaker 2 (26:40):
Our child, Jerry.
Speaker 4 (26:43):
Thank you?
Speaker 2 (26:44):
And will you be happy? Charlotte? Will it be enough?
Speaker 4 (26:49):
I will be happy, Jerry. It must be enough.
Speaker 5 (26:54):
And so the case was concluded, the patient dismissed. The
viager had reached his destination.
Speaker 1 (27:14):
In a moment, we'll bring back our star Marino Sullivan,
Ladies and gentlemen, Shanley Laboratories, maker of penicillin. Chenley would
remind you that the Ammeran Standard of Health is higher
than that of any country in the world. But warning
danger ahead. That is the meaning of a recurring ache
or pain, or chronic under par feeling. It is of
(27:35):
utmost importance to you to heed this warning and see
your family physician immediately. Serious diseases may often be arrested
when detected and treated in their incipient stage. Shenley Laboratories
urges you take advantage of the years your doctor is
invested in gaining knowledge and experience that will benefit you.
Consult your doctor regularly. Now, ladies and gentlemen, Miss moreno Sullivan, Ladies.
Speaker 4 (28:00):
And gentlemen, to sum up the spirit of the Shenley
Laboratory's program. This simple and beautiful prayer of the physician,
written centuries ago by my monodies, seems to me to
be apt and fitting. The eternal Providence has appointed me
to watch over the life and death of all thy creatures.
May I always see in the patient a fellow creature
(28:22):
in pain. Grant me strength and opportunity always to extend
the domain of my craft. This is the prayer of
the physician. It is ages old, yet to day it
is as new as the hope for a peaceful way
of life. For all the world. May we invite you
to listen again next week at the same time when
Sheenley Laboratories presents Doctor Erek's Magic Bullet starring Charles Bickford,
(28:48):
a great star and a great story. Good Night.
Speaker 2 (29:07):
Now.
Speaker 1 (29:07):
Voyager was produced and directed by Bill Lawrence and was
presented to the courtesy of Warner Brothers, who this year
is celebrating the twentieth anniversary of Sound Pictures. It was
a Gene Holloway adaptation. We are most grateful tomorrow O'Sullivan
who stepped in at the last minute to replace Loretta Young,
whose illness made it.
Speaker 2 (29:25):
Impossible for her appear denied.
Speaker 1 (29:27):
This is Frank Graham speaking for Shenley Laboratories, producer of
penicillin Shenley and inviting you to listen excuse at the
same time when you'll hear Charles Beckford in Doctor Erlick's
Magic Bullock. This is CBS, the Columbia Broadcasting System
Shenley Laboratories, producer of Penicillin, Shenley and Shenley Pharmaceuticals presents
Beyond Core. There Beyond Core Theater play Tonight Now Voyageer.
Our star is Maureen O'Sullivan. Tonight, Shenley Laboratories presents another
(00:37):
in a new series of great dramatic programs. Some of
our stories are fact the struggles and accomplishments of great
men of medicine. Others are fiction stories of devotion to
an ideal individual, heroism or courage. By these programs, Shenley
Laboratories would remind you that medical science and progress is
not cold in personal research or pages of statistics, but
(01:01):
her warm human story told in living terms, whether it's
the life of one of medicine's immortals or the everyday
record of service rendered by your own physician.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
Now Now Voyager starring Marin o.
Speaker 1 (01:27):
Sullivan with George Zuko and Elliott Lewis. In his study
in his Great Sanitarium, a Cascades, New York, the world
(01:49):
renowned psychiatrist doctor Henry jack WoT sits writing in his journal,
I met Charlotte Vave for the first time in her
own home. Her sister Lisa had come to me and
asked me if I would considered taking Charlotte's case. There
were details about it that interest in me, so I
went to Boston. The moment I met Charlotte's mother, I
begun to understand a lot of things.
Speaker 3 (02:09):
Charlotte was a late child, Doctor Jack with the child
of my old age. I've always called her. I was
well into buy forties when she was born. Her father
passed on soon after, my ugly duckling. Of course, it's
true that all late in life children are marked.
Speaker 2 (02:26):
Well laugh, and such children are not wanted that can
mark them.
Speaker 3 (02:29):
I've kept her close by me always when she was young, foolish,
I made decisions for and always the right decisions. You
would think a child would wish to repay your mother's
love and kindness.
Speaker 4 (02:40):
Yes, mother, Hello Lisa, Charlotte Darling. This is my very
good friend, doctor jacque With. I wanted him to see you.
Speaker 2 (02:47):
How do you do miss fail?
Speaker 4 (02:49):
Doctor jack With.
Speaker 3 (02:51):
Lisa feels that your recent peculiarities, your fits of crying,
your secretiveness indicate that you're on the verge of a
nervous breakdown. Is that what your trying to achieve? I know, no,
No has a sanitarium in Vermont, I believe probably one
of those places with a high wire fence and yawling
in Nates.
Speaker 5 (03:09):
Well, now, I wouldn't want anyone to have that mistaken notion.
Cascade is just a place in the country. People come
there when they're tired. You go to the sea Shaw.
They come there.
Speaker 3 (03:19):
The very word psychiatry, Doctor jack with doesn't there freely
with shame. Charlotte, my daughter, a member of Half Heavens.
Speaker 5 (03:27):
There's nothing shameful in my work, or frightening or anything else.
It's very simple, really, what I try to do. People
walk walk along a road. They come to a fork
in the road. They're confused. They don't know which way
to take. I just put up a signpost, not that way,
this way.
Speaker 4 (03:45):
If you'll excuse me, miss.
Speaker 5 (03:48):
Vail, wait, don't run away and look. I wonder if
I might ask you a favor. Will you be nice
enough to show me around the house. It's such a
beautiful place, and one does not get the chance to
see these old Boston houses.
Speaker 2 (04:03):
I'd rather like to see what your room is like.
Speaker 4 (04:06):
I'm not your patience yet, doctor, of course not.
Speaker 5 (04:09):
I've seen the rooms of a lot of people who
aren't my patients, my friends. I'd hope that you and I,
but of course if you'd rather not.
Speaker 4 (04:17):
It's on the floor above. When I was seventeen, I
stayed up once and till after midnight. That stair tread
hasn't been fixed. In here we are. She locks her door.
Make a note of a doctor. That's significant, isn't it?
Speaker 5 (04:33):
Well? It signifies it's your door. I have never heard
it said that a woman's home is not her castle.
Speaker 4 (04:38):
Here it is doctor my castle.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
Her castle.
Speaker 5 (04:43):
A set of mahogany furniture selected by her mother, very
obviously selected by her mother. A picture of the Colisea
in my moonlight, an etching of pigeons, and mark square
a Gloucester Sea scene. On one side of the room
was a workbench completed with a set of tools for
carving ivory. On the bench there was some raw ivory,
a half finished figurine, and two exquisitely designed boxes.
Speaker 2 (05:09):
Did you do this?
Speaker 4 (05:11):
Why shouldn't I?
Speaker 2 (05:12):
The point is how you could? They're beautiful.
Speaker 5 (05:15):
I have a very real admiration for people who are
clever with their hands.
Speaker 4 (05:19):
You may have one of them if you like.
Speaker 5 (05:20):
I would indeed, Well, that's very kind of you. I'm
very fond of such things, are you. I wouldn't have
to have a cigarette hidden the way someplace, would you?
Speaker 4 (05:31):
Do you think I hide cigarettes in my room? Doctor, No,
it isn't that.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
But I must have left mine in my car.
Speaker 4 (05:36):
Where do I hide them? Doctor? On the shelves, behind
the books, cigarettes and medicated sherry, and the books that
my mother would never allow me to read. A whole
secret life hidden up here behind the locked door. You're
very perceiving, doctor.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
Your mother's quite a tyrant, isn't she.
Speaker 4 (05:53):
My mother's kept everything she could out of my life.
When I was twenty, I fell in love. But the
man wasn't good for a veil of Boston. What man
is suitable, doctor? She never found one. What man would
come along and look at me and say I want you?
I'm fat? My mother disapproves of the faulderols of diet.
Look at these shoes. My mother approves of sensible shoes.
(06:16):
Look at the books on my shelves. My mother approves
of good, solid books. I'm my mother's well loved daughter.
I'm a companion, her servant, my mother, my mother, my mother.
Speaker 5 (06:30):
You'll never get a love pair of eyes, as your
mother would say, if you spoil them with tears.
Speaker 4 (06:34):
Doctor Jacquin, can't you help me? When we were talking downstairs,
you talked about a fork in the road. There so
many other folks further along the road, so many.
Speaker 5 (06:52):
Put away your book and mipe off your eyeglasses and
come downstairs. I am going to suggest to your mother
that you come to Cascades for a few weeks of
sun and rest and dire to Charlotte Vale weeks while
(07:15):
her tears retreated and her hands became more steady.
Speaker 2 (07:18):
As time passed. With her sister Lisa's help, her appearance
was changed.
Speaker 5 (07:23):
The sensible shoes disappeared for more attractive ones, her hair
was cut to hang loose on her shoulders, and her
clothes were chosen to set off her new personality. Outward
lest she was a completely poised, lovely woman.
Speaker 4 (07:37):
But inwardly, Hello Charlotte, Hello Lisa, Doctor Jack with certainly
is beautiful out here in the gardens. Oh yes, isn't
it doctor Jack who tells me you're almost well?
Speaker 2 (07:46):
She is?
Speaker 4 (07:47):
He says, I'm well enough to leave here now, but
I've got to go home. Oh Lisa, I dread it.
I dread it. Horribly. That's awful. I suppose not to
want to go home and be.
Speaker 5 (07:58):
With Stop look and listen New England conscience.
Speaker 4 (08:03):
On the track. Well, you may not have to go home.
May I tell her doctor Jacks?
Speaker 5 (08:08):
Oh later, maybe you'll see how she behaves. We have
a scheme, your relative and I what is it? You'll
find it out in good time. This morning, Charlotte, during
your office appointment with me, I referred to a quotation.
Speaker 4 (08:23):
Remember you said it was from Walt Whitman, but you
couldn't quote it.
Speaker 5 (08:27):
Oh that's right, Well I've I've had it looked up
and typed for you on a stiff of paper. If
old Walt didn't have you in mind when he wrote this,
he had hundreds of others like you.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
He's put into words.
Speaker 5 (08:37):
But I'd like to say to you now, and far
better than I could ever express it here read it.
Speaker 4 (08:43):
I'm told want by life and land near granted. Now
voyagers sailed our forth to seek and find.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
She was nervous when she started on the cruise to
South America, and.
Speaker 5 (09:08):
She kept pretty much to herself. The first night, you
didn't have the courage to go down to dinner. But
on the second she remembered that I had said, pull
your own weight, forget your hide bound New England, and
I bend.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
Be interested in everything and everybody. Be nice to every
human being who crosses your path. This is your table,
Miss Vale, Thank you, Miss Vale. May I present mister Durant.
I hope you don't mind jarring at table. But since
you were both traveling.
Speaker 4 (09:36):
Alone, No, no, not at all.
Speaker 6 (09:39):
My name is Jeremiah Duvaux Durance if you'd like to
hear it, and it's silly entirety. I was Jad in college.
My wife calls me j Duvaux, and I'm Jerry to
my friends.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
How about you? Who are you? What are you? Where
do you come from?
Speaker 4 (09:53):
Well, I'm not quite sure who I am. If clothes
make the name, then at present time, my sister Lisa.
If it's the shoes, I'm her sister June, her daughter June.
She picked mine. They were the same size, you see.
But if it's I whom inside I well, I appear
on the passenger list to Charlotte Vale, Boston, Massachusetts.
Speaker 6 (10:15):
I've heard of Boston and the name Veil like Bunker
Hill rings a familiar bell. Will you go dancing in
the lounge with me after dinner, Miss Charlotte of Boston.
Speaker 4 (10:24):
I'm afraid I'm not a very good dance.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
Neither am I.
Speaker 6 (10:26):
But I have a feeling about us. I have a
feeling we're going to dance very well together. I have
a wonderful feeling about you and me, Miss Charlotte.
Speaker 4 (10:45):
Oh, it's wonderful up here on deck, isn't it the air?
Here's a taste to it, great intoxication.
Speaker 6 (10:50):
I'm afraid the ship will be in Rio all day tomorrow.
Will you have lunch with me and help me do
some shopping for my daughters?
Speaker 4 (10:56):
Your daughters?
Speaker 2 (10:57):
Yes? Here, I'll show you a picture.
Speaker 4 (11:01):
Who is that knitting?
Speaker 6 (11:03):
It's Isabelle, my wife. The picture isn't very good of Isabelle.
She'd only looked up and smiled. That's Beatrice by her,
And that's Tina sitting with her legs crossed. We hope
she won't have to wear glasses always. Tina wouldn't smile
for me either. She's convinced she's an ugly duckling.
Speaker 4 (11:24):
Does Tina know she wasn't wanted?
Speaker 2 (11:27):
That's an odd remark.
Speaker 4 (11:28):
Oh, I'm sorry. I really shouldn't have said that.
Speaker 6 (11:30):
It's odd because it hit so close to the truth
even before she was born. Her mother said, oh, never
mind that. By the way, I have something for you.
I don't know the first thing about perfumery, but the
clerk said, this was all right.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
It's a it's a mixture of several kinds of flowers.
It's called Jolie. Fleur reminded me of you.
Speaker 4 (11:58):
Oh, Jerry, Jerry, you know this is the first. You're
the first man. This is my first present from the man.
Speaker 6 (12:08):
I'm glad I could give you your first present. I'm glad
I could be the first man to give you one.
I wish things were different. I wish I could be
the last man and all the others in between.
Speaker 4 (12:21):
That was right. The air is intoxicating.
Speaker 2 (12:25):
It isn't the air, my darling. It's the moment, and
it's you.
Speaker 5 (12:40):
There were other friends of Jerry Durance's on the ship,
a young couple who had been friends of his for years.
On the morning the ship, doctor Trio, Jerry and Mick
were playing dick tennis and Charlottan Meck's wife Deb sat talking.
Speaker 7 (12:53):
Oh, I haven't heard Jerry laugh like that and years.
You're good for him, Charlotte, Oh, Honestly, when I see
what a woman like Isabel can do to a man
like Jerry, it makes me boil. She doesn't love here
more her children, She doesn't love anyone but herself.
Speaker 4 (13:06):
Please do you mind? I don't want to hear any
more about it.
Speaker 2 (13:08):
I think you should.
Speaker 7 (13:09):
Why she even made Jerry give up his architecture because
she wanted him to do something that would bring in
money more quickly, and he could have been a fine architect.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
Hey, what are you getting so clubby about it?
Speaker 7 (13:21):
Just talking? Play with me back?
Speaker 4 (13:27):
Look, Jerry, we're getting into the harbor. Look, this is
the one side in the world that's better than the
picture postcards. You shouldn't miss this moment, Jerry. There's only
one first sailing into real harbor. See over there, this.
Speaker 6 (13:39):
Is my getting off place. Yes, your boat goes on
in three days when.
Speaker 4 (13:42):
I see you, Not unless you pay more attention to
your guide. Thank you on your left over there, that's right,
we'll take a cable car at the top. Up on
that mountain. There's something to please your architect's heart.
Speaker 2 (13:54):
Did tell you why I used to be an architect?
Speaker 4 (13:56):
Look at it, Jerry, the Christas statue. You wouldn't from
here that there's a way to get to the top
that there is. We'll get there. They say that it's
the closest, the closest that you can get to Heaven.
Speaker 1 (14:20):
In a moment, we'll return to our play now Voyager
and our star Maureen O'Sullivan. But first, an important message
from our sponsor concerning one of humanity's great healing aids,
a sound mind in a sound body. Down through the ages,
physicians everywhere have dedicated themselves, their lives, their studies to
the end that more and more people might enjoy mental
(14:42):
as well as physical health. Your own family doctor, through
his training and his understanding, is directing his energies toward
the attainment of this ideal. He is also reading and
studying constantly the findings of research workers in laboratories all
over America, laboratories such as those maintained by at Shenley Laboratories.
An extensive program of continuing research has developed many specialized
(15:06):
penicillin product, penicillin tablets and trophies, penicillin ointment and a
found appointment for the treatment of certain infections of the eye.
In the future as well, Shenley Laboratories will continue devoting
its interests to the cause of medical progress in studying
the healing possibilities of drugs derived from fermentation processes and
(15:26):
other drugs as well. Shenley hopes sincerely to contribute a
share in expanding the frontiers of medical knowledge, and thereby
to aid your doctor in his work of keeping you well.
Now the second act of Now Voyager starring Marin O.
Sullivan with George Zuko and Elliot Lewis in the study
(16:03):
of his sanitarium Cascades a great psychiatrist, doctor Jacques Sits
riding in his journal.
Speaker 5 (16:09):
Charlotte Vale was definitely on the mend, no more hysteria,
no more grief. But she was up against a great
problem now, and her future peace of mind depended completely
on her response to the problem.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
The Voyager had sailed.
Speaker 5 (16:21):
Forth head thought had found on the third day that
the ship had remained in Rio. She and Jerry went
for a ride high on the mountains above Rio. The
driver missed a turn and the car rolled over the
mountain into a small plateau. Halfway down the mountain.
Speaker 2 (16:42):
I'm mother in heaven, what have my dog?
Speaker 7 (16:45):
I said, go forward the curse? She just went back
with you killed Divert Senor sire, are you dead?
Speaker 2 (16:52):
Sure?
Speaker 7 (16:56):
Car he formerly so beautiful.
Speaker 4 (17:00):
That's all right, you are right.
Speaker 2 (17:01):
I told her to go forward. She just go back.
Please send you.
Speaker 4 (17:04):
I was descending to the valley to get the cover
out of a cord.
Speaker 2 (17:08):
Well, sen, you are saying your remain What did he say?
Speaker 4 (17:15):
I hope he said he'll get a horse in a row.
Speaker 2 (17:19):
It's beginning the storm.
Speaker 4 (17:20):
There's some sort of a shelter over there.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
Come on, we'll run for it.
Speaker 4 (17:34):
You must have been a boy scout. That's a beautiful fire.
You're very quiet. What are you thinking about?
Speaker 6 (17:42):
I was pretending, or wishing, you might even call it praying.
I was thinking how wonderful it would be if you
and I were the only two people in the world.
Speaker 2 (17:53):
We could stay here forever.
Speaker 4 (17:55):
Oh, you get to be my age. You don't pretend anymore.
You know there are no such thing as fairy tales
or happy endings.
Speaker 2 (18:03):
We'll be friends, you and I all our lives.
Speaker 4 (18:06):
And do you really believe it?
Speaker 2 (18:07):
Yes, at least I want to believe it.
Speaker 6 (18:11):
I want to believe that there's a chance for such
happiness as this to be carried on somehow.
Speaker 8 (18:15):
Somewhere in a few days, this will be gone, my
footprints in the snow, leaving no trace when the snow melts,
leaving nothing except.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
What we remember, all our lives. Wherever you are, wherever
I am.
Speaker 6 (18:35):
We are, what our memories are. Whoever gave us this
chance to be near each other, We'll give us only
one chance.
Speaker 2 (18:44):
Darling, why are you crying?
Speaker 6 (18:48):
Don't you know what I'm saying? Don't you realize I
love you?
Speaker 4 (18:54):
I know, and I can't believe it. I suppose he
is it really tears of gratitude, an old maid's gratitude
for the crumbs of it.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
Please don't talk like that.
Speaker 4 (19:07):
No one ever called me darling before you did, Darling, Cherry, Darling.
Speaker 5 (19:25):
It never was any more than that, a few gay hours,
a blinding moment of revelation. But the two people who
lived it would never be the same again. They had
the intelligence to recognize love. They had the strength to
put it by. Charlotte Vale came back a vibrant, glowing,
confident person, and one that seemed completely happy if you
(19:48):
didn't look too deeply in her eyes. She was very
lonely for what she'd found and lust. She came to
Cascades for a few weeks of rest before going home,
and there she met Tina Durance, Jerry's child. I didn't
know at that time she knew Duranz and it was
completely accidental that Tina was in the next room to Charlotte.
(20:08):
She heard Tina cry, and she opened the door and
went in.
Speaker 4 (20:12):
Oh, hello, go away.
Speaker 7 (20:14):
I know who you are, and I don't like you.
Speaker 4 (20:16):
You do? Who am I?
Speaker 7 (20:18):
You're my new nurse?
Speaker 4 (20:19):
You're wrong, I'm your new neighbor. How long have you
been a cascade? Ten days?
Speaker 7 (20:25):
Nearly eleven?
Speaker 4 (20:26):
And you don't like it very much? Doing? No? Now
that did I at the end of ten days? For
the first two weeks are the worst? Said, you have
the jigsaw puzzle?
Speaker 8 (20:36):
Uh huh?
Speaker 4 (20:37):
Will you let me help you work it? Come here,
miss Charlotte, Miss Charlotte, Tina Darling, what's the matter?
Speaker 7 (20:57):
Can I sleep in here with you?
Speaker 4 (20:58):
Of course you can. Oh, something happened, something terrible, Oh
that awful this morning? Says there would be a.
Speaker 3 (21:05):
Nurser for me tomorrow night.
Speaker 4 (21:07):
Why must I have a nurse?
Speaker 7 (21:09):
Nobody, my aches nurse.
Speaker 4 (21:11):
I'll be some a shame. No, no, Tina, Tina, listen
to me. Listen, Tina, I'll talk to them tomorrow, I'll
ask them to give you another trial without a nurse.
M I'm an old friend of doctor jack Wits, and
I'll tell him too. You leave it to me. You
good to me.
Speaker 8 (21:28):
Why are you so good to me?
Speaker 4 (21:30):
Oh? Lots of reasons, but one is enough. There was
someone who was good to me once when I needed someone.
I'll go to sleep, Tina, and I'll tell you a story. Yeah,
I'll turn the bed down now. Then close your eyes,
make your muscles go all limp, and I'll tell you
a story that's better. Now, pretend you're a child, because
(21:51):
this story may be too young for you. Once upon
a time there was a little girl, doctor Jack with
I have a proposition to make.
Speaker 5 (22:08):
My nurse's telling me you're running cascades. Now you've had
Tina hiking, dancing, playing tennis. I thought you came up
here to have another nervous breakdown.
Speaker 4 (22:15):
Well, I decaid not to have it. It was all the
same to you. I'm not doing anything with my time.
Couldn't I take care of Tina instead of a nurse.
I promised to ask you about everything I.
Speaker 2 (22:25):
Have already canceled the nurse. Just go ahead, tell me
what you do.
Speaker 4 (22:28):
Oh, I just be with her. I pay her attention
and make her feel wanted and important, and then as
soon as you let me, I take her to Boston
for holiday.
Speaker 2 (22:36):
Why do you take such great personal interest in Tina?
Speaker 4 (22:39):
Well, I know her father. He was on my cruisey.
I thought perhaps you knew. I don't see how you couldn't,
except that you seem to know so many things.
Speaker 2 (22:50):
No, I didn't know.
Speaker 5 (22:51):
If I had known, I certainly want to advise you
to come to Cascades at present. I had no idea
you'd ever met Durant's know how I emertionally involved you
are with him, But I can't work in the dark
when as a child in the picture.
Speaker 4 (23:05):
Well, i'll tell you everything. It's over. It's everything in
two words, doctor, it's over, Doctor Jack with Tina needs
me and I need her.
Speaker 5 (23:16):
Well, I'm crazy, But if you promise to behave yourself, oh,
I'll tell her that you're only on probation. Remember what
it says in the Bible, the Lord giveth and the
Lord taketh away.
Speaker 4 (23:27):
How does it feel to be the Lord?
Speaker 5 (23:29):
Not so very wonderful? Since the free will bills passed
to little power.
Speaker 4 (23:34):
I love you, doctor, Jaques, I.
Speaker 2 (23:36):
Love you, Charlotte Vale.
Speaker 5 (23:45):
Charlotte and Tina brought great good to one another and
great happiness. Charlotte found the child she had missed, and
Tina the mother. I got permission from Durance for Tina
to go to Boston the Charlotte, and many months later
I took him down on the me to visit them.
I was a little nervous about that meeting, and more
than a little apprehensive when Charlotte and Jerry went in
(24:06):
the library and closed the door.
Speaker 4 (24:09):
How do you like your daughter, Jerry?
Speaker 2 (24:11):
She's lovely, But Charlotte, I'm going to take her home.
Speaker 4 (24:14):
Oh no, no, you can't. Oh. Doctor Jack has said
it would be the worst thing in the world for
Tina to go home.
Speaker 2 (24:19):
Now, I don't care what he says.
Speaker 6 (24:21):
No self respecting man could allow such self sacrifices yours
to go on.
Speaker 4 (24:24):
Indefinitely the most conventional, pretentious, pious speech I've ever heard
you make in your life, Jerry, I simply don't know.
Speaker 6 (24:30):
You can't go on forever taking taking from you and
giving nothing.
Speaker 4 (24:33):
Don't it, Jerry, Don't you see you will be giving?
Don't you know that to take is to give? Sometimes
the most beautiful way in the world of two people
love each other. Or besides, Jerry, you'll be giving me Tina.
Every single day. I'll be taking, taking, taking, and you'll
be giving.
Speaker 6 (24:52):
I don't want my child to come along and take
your whole life when you should be spending it with
some man who'll make you happy.
Speaker 4 (24:58):
Oh, so that's it, some man to make me happy. Here,
if I've been living under the delusion that you and
I were so in sympathy that you knew without being told,
what would make me happy. When Tina wanted to come
home with me and stay, it was like a miracle happening,
and I allowed myself to indulge in the fancy that
both of us loving her and doing what was best
for her together would make us seem actually like our
(25:19):
child after a while. But I see that I've been
just a big sentimental.
Speaker 2 (25:23):
Walt go of me now I know.
Speaker 6 (25:27):
Now, I know that it won't die what's between us,
do what we will, ignore it, neglect it, starve it
stronger than both of us together.
Speaker 2 (25:36):
Oh, Charlotte, let me.
Speaker 4 (25:37):
Go, Jerry. Jerry. Doctor jack With knows about us. When
he let me take Tina, he said, you're on probation.
You know what he means. He allowed me this visit
of yours. But it's a test. If I can't stand
such tests, I'll lose Tina in time, and we lose
each other. Jerry, Jerry, will you help me? So?
Speaker 2 (26:05):
Shall we just have a cigarette on it? Thank you?
May I come here sometimes whenever you like.
Speaker 4 (26:13):
It's your home too. People who love you live here.
Speaker 6 (26:17):
And may I sometimes smoke a cigarette with you and
just sit here with you an understanding silence.
Speaker 4 (26:23):
Of course, we can always light our cigarettes from the
same flame. That is, if you'll help me keep what
we have, if we both try hard to protect that
little strip of territory that's been given to us. I
can talk to you once in a while about your child.
Speaker 2 (26:40):
Our child, Jerry.
Speaker 4 (26:43):
Thank you?
Speaker 2 (26:44):
And will you be happy? Charlotte? Will it be enough?
Speaker 4 (26:49):
I will be happy, Jerry. It must be enough.
Speaker 5 (26:54):
And so the case was concluded, the patient dismissed. The
viager had reached his destination.
Speaker 1 (27:14):
In a moment, we'll bring back our star Marino Sullivan,
Ladies and gentlemen, Shanley Laboratories, maker of penicillin. Chenley would
remind you that the Ammeran Standard of Health is higher
than that of any country in the world. But warning
danger ahead. That is the meaning of a recurring ache
or pain, or chronic under par feeling. It is of
(27:35):
utmost importance to you to heed this warning and see
your family physician immediately. Serious diseases may often be arrested
when detected and treated in their incipient stage. Shenley Laboratories
urges you take advantage of the years your doctor is
invested in gaining knowledge and experience that will benefit you.
Consult your doctor regularly. Now, ladies and gentlemen, Miss moreno Sullivan, Ladies.
Speaker 4 (28:00):
And gentlemen, to sum up the spirit of the Shenley
Laboratory's program. This simple and beautiful prayer of the physician,
written centuries ago by my monodies, seems to me to
be apt and fitting. The eternal Providence has appointed me
to watch over the life and death of all thy creatures.
May I always see in the patient a fellow creature
(28:22):
in pain. Grant me strength and opportunity always to extend
the domain of my craft. This is the prayer of
the physician. It is ages old, yet to day it
is as new as the hope for a peaceful way
of life. For all the world. May we invite you
to listen again next week at the same time when
Sheenley Laboratories presents Doctor Erek's Magic Bullet starring Charles Bickford,
(28:48):
a great star and a great story. Good Night.
Speaker 2 (29:07):
Now.
Speaker 1 (29:07):
Voyager was produced and directed by Bill Lawrence and was
presented to the courtesy of Warner Brothers, who this year
is celebrating the twentieth anniversary of Sound Pictures. It was
a Gene Holloway adaptation. We are most grateful tomorrow O'Sullivan
who stepped in at the last minute to replace Loretta Young,
whose illness made it.
Speaker 2 (29:25):
Impossible for her appear denied.
Speaker 1 (29:27):
This is Frank Graham speaking for Shenley Laboratories, producer of
penicillin Shenley and inviting you to listen excuse at the
same time when you'll hear Charles Beckford in Doctor Erlick's
Magic Bullock. This is CBS, the Columbia Broadcasting System
