Speaker 1 (00:05):
The Shenry Laboratories, producer of Penicil, and Shenley and Shenley
Pharmaceuticals presents The Yon Core theare Yon Core Theater play
Tonight green Light. Our star is Robert Young. Tonight, Shenley
(00:37):
Laboratories presents another and a new series of great dramatic programs.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
Some of our stories are fact.
Speaker 1 (00:43):
The struggles and accomplishments of great men of medicine. Others
are fiction stories of devotion to an ideal individual, heroism,
or great courage. By these programs, Shenley Laboratories would remind
you that medical science and progress is not cole impersonal
research or pages of statistics, but a warm human story
(01:05):
told in living terms, whether it's the life of one
of medicine's immortals or the simple everyday record of service
rendered by your own physician. Now green Light, starring Robert
(01:27):
Young as doctor nuwell Page and with Pedro De Cordable
as Dean Harcourt, green Light the story of a doctor
(01:49):
mull Page, surgeon Baytree Hospital, and of a girl Phyllis Dexter.
Speaker 3 (01:54):
I hated doctor Paige. I thought I would always hate him.
Speaker 2 (01:57):
The story too, of.
Speaker 3 (01:59):
A nurse, Miss Ogilvy, staff Beatree Hospital. I love doctor Page.
I thought I would always love him.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
The story of a woman of great faith and courage.
Speaker 3 (02:09):
My mother, Missus John Dexter.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
And of a great religious man, Dean Harcourt of Trinity Cathedral.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
Man's progress in life is not steadily onward. Sometimes he
is stopped by something that is bigger and stronger than he,
something he cannot understand and over which he has no control.
That's something I like to think of as a red
light flashing a halt the forward surge of his life.
(02:37):
And I like to believe there's a power which controls
that life, which knows in its infinite wisdom that sometimes
man must stop to learn through suffering before going on.
For it is as inevitable as time that man progresses
to a better future, if not for himself, then through
(02:59):
his suffering for his fellow men. When he has land this,
the signal changes and the green light frees him to
resume his inexorable march into intective You have been listening
to him.
Speaker 4 (03:16):
Turn it off now, Doctor Page.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
What would religion be without music?
Speaker 4 (03:21):
There was religion long before there was music.
Speaker 2 (03:24):
I'm sorry. The usual greeting for the doctor is and
how is the little lady this morning.
Speaker 3 (03:29):
And I suppose the usual answer is terrible, doctor, But.
Speaker 5 (03:33):
Since we both are unusual people, I'd say your pulse
shows marvelous repose for a patient facing surgery.
Speaker 4 (03:39):
You can thank Dean Harcourt for that.
Speaker 5 (03:41):
I do, just as I'm thankful for anything that gives
a patient courage and confidence.
Speaker 4 (03:46):
A shorter word for courage and confidence is faith.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
Whatever it is, you'll need every bit of it. Now.
Speaker 4 (03:53):
More dead news.
Speaker 5 (03:54):
Oh, nothing really serious except that, well, it's not easy
to prepare one's self mentally for an operation. Sometimes a
postponement can cause a harmful reaction. What I'm trying to.
Speaker 3 (04:04):
Say is you're trying to tell me my operation has
been postponed.
Speaker 5 (04:09):
Yes, Doctor Ndicott has been detained in Milwaukee. He'll be
here as soon as he can.
Speaker 4 (04:13):
Milwauk is a beautiful city. It's always seemed full of
music to me. Years ago. We used to go there
to hear the community singing.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
You make it work, don't you? No?
Speaker 4 (04:23):
I simply let it work.
Speaker 5 (04:25):
How simple things would be if we all had your faith.
I'll let you know about the operation as soon as
I possibly can.
Speaker 4 (04:31):
I know you will.
Speaker 5 (04:44):
Any word, doctor, Ndicott yet, miss.
Speaker 3 (04:45):
Ogilvie, No, doctor, they can't seem to locate him.
Speaker 5 (04:47):
You're a missus Dexter's X raise now, thanks, good lord,
look at that. She can't hold out much longer.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
We've got to do something. We'll have to wait for Endicotte,
she says, patient.
Speaker 5 (04:57):
We can't postpone this operation any longer.
Speaker 2 (04:59):
Her life has at stake. Now our phone surgery? Are
you crazy? Not?
Speaker 5 (05:02):
Unless these X rays are surgery surgery this, doctor Page,
you can't do that. You will operate on missus Dexter immediately, Clay,
miss Ogiley.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
Yes, doctor Page, Doctor Page, Yes, Doctor Indicott, thank you doctor.
If you will.
Speaker 6 (05:28):
Assist me, I can take over now, yes, sir, the
horss Ogilvy, doctor Page, make a tie please.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
She's bleeding badly quick. Well, I'm afraid that's that I
did everything I could.
Speaker 7 (05:54):
She shouldn't have died, and you will you were doing
perfect work. If then the cot had been less upside
would rather than not talk.
Speaker 8 (05:59):
About it, exactly what happened. And I'm going to tell
everybody the truth.
Speaker 5 (06:02):
Don't you think it's doctor Ndicott's privileged to make his
own statement? First come in Hello, doctor Ndicott. Oh, uh, no,
glad you came in.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
I've been wanting to talk to you. I I sit down.
Speaker 6 (06:27):
Nasty business is Dexter death. I have been trying to
convince the Board of Directors that her death was an
unavoidable accident. It was unavoidable, wasn't.
Speaker 5 (06:36):
It, No, Sir, for some reason, you cut the pedicle
too short for safe legation. I couldn't make the tie,
and the hemorrhage resulted. It should never have happened.
Speaker 6 (06:47):
The problem now, I probably shouldn't have stepped in on
the operation, realizing the terrific strain I've been under.
Speaker 5 (06:53):
We all love missus Dexter.
Speaker 6 (06:55):
I felt that her life was my personal responsibility, but
all planes have been grounded on account of weather. I've
moved heaven and Earth to get here in time. I
haven't slept in two days.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
Too tired, I'm sorry, sir.
Speaker 6 (07:11):
A split second woman dies and the whole career dies
with her. A split second is against the forty years
I've given to medicine. I can't be judged on one
operation at of thousands, mule.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
I can't you? Hello, John? What time is it? What
time for you to pull yourself together?
Speaker 7 (07:40):
Get down to the hospital and tell Endercott on the
board where to head in.
Speaker 2 (07:43):
I can't do that. Why not?
Speaker 5 (07:45):
What do you want me to do? Stand up before
the board and say, dear, dear, kind gentlemen. It doesn't
matter to me that doctor Endicott taught me everything I
know about surgery. Doesn't matter that doctor Endicott is one
of the finest surgeons in the country. It doesn't matter
how many lives he's saved, how much pain he's eased,
how much comfort he's brought. No, none of that's important.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
Just me.
Speaker 5 (08:05):
I'm the only one who's important, big important, doctor Page.
I know it's tough, but you've got to protect yourself.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
A split second, a woman dies and a career dies
with her.
Speaker 5 (08:16):
That isn't right either. Dendicot's a human being too, He's
not infallible.
Speaker 7 (08:20):
That's no concern of yours. If you resign, you admit
that you were responsible for Missus Dexter's death, exactly well,
that clears endic it completely right. Confound that you sound
as if you were going to resign.
Speaker 9 (08:32):
I have already, Dean Harcourt.
Speaker 3 (08:48):
I'm Francis Ogilvy. I was the nurse on I was
Missus Dexter's nurse, and.
Speaker 8 (08:54):
She she always listened to your broadcast and I I.
Speaker 3 (08:59):
Had to talk to.
Speaker 2 (09:02):
You.
Speaker 8 (09:02):
See, I know what happened in that operating room, and
doctor Page won't defend himself because of professional ethics and that.
I wanted to speak up, but I thought I should
talk to someone first.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
No man makes sacrifices with that reason. Whatever that reason
may be, it's in itself compensation for his suffering.
Speaker 3 (09:20):
But why should doctor Page sacrifice himself for indicot for
the moment.
Speaker 2 (09:24):
That's doctor Page's problem, not yours. He must have had
good reasons, otherwise he wouldn't do it. There's nothing you
can do except respect that reason.
Speaker 8 (09:36):
I see I've taken a lot of your time. Is
there something I can.
Speaker 3 (09:40):
Do to repay you?
Speaker 2 (09:41):
Yes, Phyllis Dexter is waiting to see me. She's pretty
upset about her mother's death before I talked to her.
I want you to take her to the little ante
room where you were taken. Ask her whatever question that
you wish, then come back to me and tell me
what she says.
Speaker 8 (10:08):
Just throw your coat anywhere, Phyllis. Sorry, the apartment's a
little messy, It's.
Speaker 10 (10:11):
Not messy at all.
Speaker 11 (10:13):
I feel much better after talking to you, and it
was very kind of you to invite me over.
Speaker 9 (10:17):
Not at all.
Speaker 3 (10:18):
I got some coffee on Will you answer the door please?
Speaker 11 (10:21):
Sure?
Speaker 2 (10:23):
Oh I'm sorry. I thought this was miss Ogleby's apartment.
Speaker 10 (10:26):
It is.
Speaker 11 (10:27):
Come in?
Speaker 3 (10:28):
Who shall I tell her he's calling?
Speaker 2 (10:30):
No, hello, Francis.
Speaker 3 (10:33):
Oh come in man? Can I check your code?
Speaker 2 (10:37):
Oh? Thanks? I can only stay a moment.
Speaker 10 (10:38):
Perhaps i'd better go now.
Speaker 3 (10:39):
I had no idea you were expecting visitor. I wasn't.
He's the last person in the world I ever expected
to see here.
Speaker 5 (10:45):
What As a matter of fact, I didn't expect to
be here myself. I was out walking in the rain
when suddenly, to my surprise, I found myself in front
of your house.
Speaker 8 (10:52):
Uh, Miss Dexter, Mister Phillis Dexter just returned from England today,
Phillips Dexter. Miss Ogleby sort of kidnapped me away from myself.
Speaker 5 (11:02):
I wish you could do as much for me. That
is I er well, I have got to run along
as appointment.
Speaker 3 (11:07):
Miss Dexter. May I introduce mister Walker. If you're as
nice as Miss Ogilby, you'll be well worth knowing.
Speaker 5 (11:14):
Well, thank you. Sit down, well just for a moment.
I really can't stay. Did you uh enjoy London?
Speaker 10 (11:21):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (11:22):
Very much? Why are you staring at me?
Speaker 2 (11:25):
Well, I'm sorry.
Speaker 5 (11:26):
You remind me so much of someone really, yes, someone
very lovely.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
I never expected to meet anyone like that. Again.
Speaker 5 (11:34):
Time decides so many things, doesn't it. A split second
of time, something happens, two people meet accidentally, a knife slips,
someone takes the wrong turn, anything, and without warning, a
future has been created.
Speaker 3 (11:49):
Evidently you're a fatalist.
Speaker 5 (11:51):
Hardly, I I only know that things happen sometimes, it
seems with deliberate cruelty. Don't let anything happen to you
will hurt you. Well, I've got to go on.
Speaker 4 (12:03):
How good night, good night.
Speaker 3 (12:10):
What a strange man. He's a great guy. He's one
of a kind. Least, he's the only one I've ever seen.
Do you think he'll call again?
Speaker 8 (12:22):
Honey? There's no way of telling what he'll do ever,
As Dean Harcourt would say, the signals have changed. The
lights are against him right now, but he'll get the
green light again. He can't miss.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
Ladies and gentlemen. In a moment, we will return to
our play Green light starring Robert Young. But first a
message of hope for those in the world of pain,
the inspiring promise of greater healing. Because today in the
supply room of eighty three hundred and eighty three American
hospitals you will find Dennis. Yet only three years ago,
the wonder drug was almost a medical rarity. The firms
(13:05):
who devoted themselves to increasing the supplies of penicillin available
struggled against many obstacles inherent in its production. Numbered among
these firms was Shanley Laboratories. Although these companies have seen
the realization of their goal enough penicillin to fill essential needs,
they cannot feel their work is done. Up to the present,
(13:26):
research workers at Schenley Laboratories have developed such products as
penicillin tablets and trochies for administration by mouth, and penicillin
ointment and a foul apintment. Now these men are looking
forward to the perfecting and production of other, and perhaps
entirely different types of pharmaceuticals. It is, ever the aim
of Shenley Laboratories to know more of what benefits to
(13:48):
mankind may be derived from medical research. It is our aim, too,
to translate the knowledge we gain into production of more
and greater aids to healing for all members of the
medical profer. Now back to our play green Light, starring
Robert Young as Doctor Page and with Pedro Decordiba as
(14:08):
Dean Harcourt.
Speaker 5 (14:26):
Dean Harcourt, I came here to argue with you about
your concept of everlasting life.
Speaker 2 (14:30):
Paul right, please sit down.
Speaker 5 (14:33):
I want to know how you can justify needless death,
greed in the destruction of a career. I want to
know how you can reconcile such waste with your irresistible
onward drive. Why on the doctor Page who operated on
missus dexter.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
I see you have a fine religion, Doctor Page, I
have none, so far as I know. Religion has many definitions,
at least in my dictionary, such as loyalty, devotion, or perhaps.
Speaker 5 (15:01):
But my dictionary defines it as a kind of opiate
used by people with hurt sensibilities to dull them into drowsiness.
A man needs more than that in his life, something
he can get his hands on, something for which.
Speaker 2 (15:11):
To live, or else, something for which to die. I
can't even think of anything to die for. Yes, come in,
Hello Phyllis.
Speaker 3 (15:21):
Hello Dean Harcourt. Hello, mister, I had no idea you
knew Dean Harcourt.
Speaker 2 (15:26):
I didn't until a short while ago.
Speaker 3 (15:27):
Then you must be in some trouble.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
Is that why you're here?
Speaker 3 (15:31):
Dean Harcourt was my mother's friend. He's mine too. I
hope we'd meet again.
Speaker 11 (15:36):
I I wanted to ask you to explain some of
the strange things you said last night.
Speaker 5 (15:40):
I'm always saying strange things that I can't explain myself.
IW fe'll excuse me. Well, I had no idea you
too knew each other.
Speaker 3 (15:47):
I'd met mister Walker last night.
Speaker 2 (15:49):
Mister Splendid, you too should make excellent friends.
Speaker 3 (15:52):
I'm afraid mister Walker doesn't agree with you.
Speaker 2 (15:54):
That's not it. Miss Dexter might have made very good friends.
But we met a little too. Lady, my goodness, sits
lunch time already. You must be frightfully hungry. Phillis I
beg your pardon? I said you must be hungry. I'm
not sorry. I can't offer you any lunch. You eat,
don't you me? Oh? Sure, sure? I eat off. When
(16:15):
I was a young man, I was always taking a
young lady to luncheon, particularly if I've had some sort
of misunderstanding in fact, I was known as a hungry
harcourt you. Indeed, shall we have lunch? Miss dexteron good
you two run along and have a good time. And
by the way, if you have no other plans, have
(16:37):
dinner with me next Friday, both of us. I love to,
so would I, and bring Miss Guilty with you.
Speaker 3 (16:43):
Yes, Alaska, goodbye.
Speaker 2 (16:44):
See you Friday about it? Goodbye.
Speaker 3 (16:49):
You're a strange man.
Speaker 2 (16:51):
Why do you say that one.
Speaker 3 (16:52):
Moment you're so friendly in the next two. Why did
you say we.
Speaker 10 (16:57):
Met too late?
Speaker 5 (16:59):
Let's set up on this bench moment all right? Last night,
when I met you, it was like, well, it was
almost like the beginning of a world for me. I
don't know how to explain it very well. Except for
a moment. It was like the dawn coming up after
a long, dark night. It was as though in finding you,
(17:20):
I'd found an answer to everything, to every heart ache,
to every loneliness, to every torment. I looked at you
and I wanted to say, if you will spend your
days with me, I'll have everything I've ever dreamed about.
Speaker 11 (17:34):
You've thought all that, Yes, you know what I thought.
I thought in some strange way, in one look with
one smile. This man has put his hand upon my heart.
Speaker 2 (17:50):
And made it his.
Speaker 3 (17:53):
And I thought this is the beginning of many things.
Speaker 2 (17:57):
It was the beginning, but it was also the end,
the ending.
Speaker 5 (18:02):
Why because your name is Phyllis dexter mine is Newell page,
Doctor Newell page.
Speaker 10 (18:10):
New page page.
Speaker 5 (18:13):
Yes, that's why I didn't want to see you again,
at least not until I could find some way of
telling you.
Speaker 2 (18:17):
You you have no reason for hating me.
Speaker 10 (18:19):
No reason you killed my mother?
Speaker 5 (18:22):
No, well then who did?
Speaker 10 (18:26):
You might at least have been mad enough to.
Speaker 3 (18:27):
Accept the blame.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
You don't understand it was not.
Speaker 3 (18:29):
I think I do understand.
Speaker 10 (18:32):
Goodbye, doctor Paige.
Speaker 2 (18:45):
I can't understand why he isn't here.
Speaker 3 (18:48):
No, he's He's usually very prompt.
Speaker 2 (18:50):
Well he'll be along. Did you too have a nice
luncheon the other day.
Speaker 10 (18:54):
Phyllis, we didn't go to lunch?
Speaker 8 (18:56):
Why not?
Speaker 3 (18:58):
What happened?
Speaker 10 (18:59):
Nothing?
Speaker 3 (19:00):
I'm not telling the truth.
Speaker 10 (19:00):
You lied to me, you introduced doctor page of mister Walker.
Speaker 3 (19:05):
I see why, because I saw no reason to upset
you or him. I do anything I could to make
things easier for him.
Speaker 10 (19:11):
Why should he have things made easier for him? Don't
say it don't say it. I'm sick of philosophies and
sermons and terribles. I'm a human being. I have a
right to hate or love.
Speaker 2 (19:21):
Delis. What did Page do to you?
Speaker 10 (19:24):
He killed my mother.
Speaker 2 (19:25):
There's something else, something within you that's been killed.
Speaker 10 (19:30):
He lied to me.
Speaker 3 (19:31):
You love him?
Speaker 2 (19:32):
I don't.
Speaker 8 (19:32):
I despise he didn't even have the decency to take
the blame himself.
Speaker 3 (19:38):
Did he name another doctor?
Speaker 2 (19:39):
Oh?
Speaker 10 (19:40):
No, how could he?
Speaker 3 (19:41):
That's right, how could he? He's too decent, too honest
to break the rules he plays by.
Speaker 10 (19:47):
Why do you say that?
Speaker 3 (19:48):
No, no, I'll play according to Page's rules.
Speaker 2 (19:52):
Now.
Speaker 8 (19:53):
He didn't have to listen to sermons to become good.
He was born that way. He'll always be that way,
no matter what happens to him.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
I don't understand you will eventually, you see, my dear.
Until you have faith, you don't really love Francis. Yes,
I've learned much from you to day. Thank you?
Speaker 3 (20:15):
Will you excuse me from dinner?
Speaker 10 (20:16):
Please?
Speaker 2 (20:18):
Where are you going?
Speaker 3 (20:19):
Define? I'll answer the door. Telegram, Harcourt, find your piss,
Thank you, it's for you? Oh what what is it?
Speaker 2 (20:36):
I'm afraid you'll have to go a long way phyllis.
He's in Montana, Montana. The wires from a doctor Lane.
He says, you will ask him to wire and explain
that he couldn't come to dinner. And he says he's
very ill. He deliberately let a wood tick bite him
so that he could infect himself with spotted fever.
Speaker 3 (21:00):
Spotted fever.
Speaker 2 (21:02):
He wants to be used as a human guinea pig
to test the vaccine.
Speaker 3 (21:06):
Oh no, come on, We've got to get doctor Endicott
in a hurry, Doctor Endicott. Doctor Page is with John.
Speaker 2 (21:17):
Lane on Boone Mountain. Yes, I won't have him that
pest hole. He'll die like all the rest.
Speaker 3 (21:22):
He may be dying now. He's down with spotted fever.
He gave it to himself to test a vaccine.
Speaker 2 (21:26):
My fault. If he dies, my fault. He mustn't die.
I won't let him. We'll trot her a plane. Get
out there right away. That's my temperature. It was one
hundred and two point nine an hour ago. How do
you feel? Not bad? Kind of groggy? Pain in the
(21:48):
lower quadron of the abdomen.
Speaker 5 (21:50):
Make a note of it. I want to see how
long it lasts.
Speaker 7 (21:53):
Why did you ever do such a full thing, deliberately
infecting yourself, risking your life.
Speaker 2 (21:58):
If I die, I don't particularly care, and you will
have learned something.
Speaker 12 (22:04):
There seems to be a congestion of developing in the lungs.
How about taking a blood count. I'd like to see
if I'm losing any resistance.
Speaker 2 (22:22):
Hello, doctor Lane, how is he?
Speaker 3 (22:24):
Is he conscious?
Speaker 2 (22:25):
Yes, but he's thinking. We'll go right in. Not humus dexter.
We don't want to upset it. Hello Noul.
Speaker 5 (22:36):
Hello doctor Hendicott. Francis, we can use you. John's getting
sick of keeping my chart. We aren't going to let
you die. You won't have anything to say about it
if that vaccine doesn't work. At the present, I share
the same place in society with the guinea pig. Yeah,
(22:59):
guess make that blood count. Watch my temperature closely. I
am I'm becoming stuporous.
Speaker 3 (23:08):
He's unconscious.
Speaker 5 (23:10):
No, not yet, Keep your nerve, Francis, you're an old
hand this sort of thing.
Speaker 3 (23:19):
Yes, Doctor Page.
Speaker 2 (23:28):
What's my temperature?
Speaker 3 (23:30):
One hundred and four point one?
Speaker 2 (23:32):
Heart action weakening?
Speaker 12 (23:37):
John, better not talk. You will take another blood count.
Temperature one hundred and four point one should break before
it reaches one hundred and five.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
Can't take one hundred five, Francis.
Speaker 6 (24:01):
If he dies, I will have killed him, just as
I killed Missus Dexter.
Speaker 3 (24:08):
What did you say, doctor Ndicott.
Speaker 2 (24:09):
I was to blame Phyllis.
Speaker 6 (24:11):
I was at fault, and I never should have let
him take the blame. He's got to live, if there's
any justice at all, he's got to live.
Speaker 3 (24:22):
Now. You know what you needed to know, Phyllis. No,
I haven't really needed to know anything since the moment
when I knew I loved here.
Speaker 2 (24:31):
His temperatures up to one hundred and four point two.
Speaker 3 (24:33):
I'll go write in.
Speaker 8 (24:40):
Temperature last four reading steady one hundred four point two.
Speaker 10 (24:43):
Doctor Endicott, can't you do something? We can't just sit
here let him die.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
There's nothing we can do for him now except pray.
Speaker 5 (24:51):
Francis Phyllis not to rendic.
Speaker 3 (24:55):
His temperature.
Speaker 2 (24:58):
Look at his temperature.
Speaker 4 (25:00):
One hundred and three point one.
Speaker 3 (25:03):
It's licked, Fellas, it's licked.
Speaker 8 (25:06):
He's gonna live.
Speaker 3 (25:07):
He's gonna be all.
Speaker 5 (25:08):
Right, Doctor Ndigott. There's a place for you out here.
Speaker 6 (25:28):
No, you, fellas have already done the most important work
on spoted for you.
Speaker 2 (25:32):
You won't need me here.
Speaker 5 (25:34):
But the people will need great doctors to help them
through their birth, doctors who haven't forgotten their oath to
their fellow men. To share my substance with him and
to relieve his necessities when required.
Speaker 6 (25:46):
I guess I lost sight of what being a doctor
means for a while, Noul, But.
Speaker 2 (25:51):
I think I've got the green light now myself.
Speaker 5 (25:54):
You've been listening to Dean Harcourt too, Yes, I've been listening,
and I'm going to stay out of here.
Speaker 11 (26:00):
You.
Speaker 3 (26:01):
A letter just came from Baytree.
Speaker 2 (26:04):
Yes, yes, I wrote them explaining everything. Holy smoke, they've
appointed me chief surgeon at bay Tree.
Speaker 3 (26:10):
Oh, I'm so proud of.
Speaker 5 (26:11):
You, Oh, Phyllis, Phyllis, How rich I am? How fortunate,
how lucky, how happy? Are grateful? There aren't enough adjectives
to say it.
Speaker 6 (26:23):
I don't like to interrupt Love's young dream, but it's
time for Dean Harcourt.
Speaker 2 (26:26):
Oh, the depths of the riches of the wisdom and
knowledge of God, How unsearchable are his judgments and his
ways past finding? For who has known the mind of
the law, or who hath been his counselor, or who
hath first given to him? And it shall be recompensed.
Unto him again, thought of him, and through him, and
(26:51):
in him out all things to him be glory forever.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
Amen In in a moment, we'll bring back our star
Robert Young, Ladies and gentlemen, Shenley Laboratories, maker of penicillin.
Shanley would like to remind you that the American standard
(27:19):
of health is higher than that of any other country.
Speaker 2 (27:22):
In the world.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
We feel sure you will agree that the man who
has done most to make the situation true is the
American doctor. Shenry Laboratory's pledges to do all within our
power to aid America's positions and their work of maintaining
America's high standards of health. And now, ladies and gentlemen,
mister Robert.
Speaker 5 (27:40):
Young, Ladies and gentlemen, to sum up the spirit of
this Shanley Laboratories program. This beautiful and simple prayer of
the physician, written centuries ago by Mamianides, 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
(28:01):
fellow creature in pain. Grant me strength and opportunity always
to extend the domain of my craft. This is the
prayer of the physician. It is age as old, and
yet today 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 Shenley Laboratories presents Men in White starring
(28:22):
Robert Taylor, A great star and a great story.
Speaker 2 (28:25):
Good Night Dream Light by Lloyd S.
Speaker 1 (28:48):
Douglas was produced and directed by Bill Lawlins. I was
broadcast through the courtesy of Warner Brothers, who this year
is celebrating the twentieth anniversary of Sound Pictures.
Speaker 2 (28:58):
It was a Gene Holloway adaptation. Robert Young will soon.
Speaker 1 (29:01):
Be seen in Halby Wallace Paramount production, The Searching Wind.
This is Frank Graham speaking for Shenley Laboratories, producers of
Penicillin Shenley, and inviting you to listen to the ncrefier
next Tuesday at the same time when you will hear
Robert Taylor in Men in White. This is CBS, the
Columbia Broadcasting System
The Shenry Laboratories, producer of Penicil, and Shenley and Shenley
Pharmaceuticals presents The Yon Core theare Yon Core Theater play
Tonight green Light. Our star is Robert Young. Tonight, Shenley
(00:37):
Laboratories presents another and a new series of great dramatic programs.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
Some of our stories are fact.
Speaker 1 (00:43):
The struggles and accomplishments of great men of medicine. Others
are fiction stories of devotion to an ideal individual, heroism,
or great courage. By these programs, Shenley Laboratories would remind
you that medical science and progress is not cole impersonal
research or pages of statistics, but a warm human story
(01:05):
told in living terms, whether it's the life of one
of medicine's immortals or the simple everyday record of service
rendered by your own physician. Now green Light, starring Robert
(01:27):
Young as doctor nuwell Page and with Pedro De Cordable
as Dean Harcourt, green Light the story of a doctor
(01:49):
mull Page, surgeon Baytree Hospital, and of a girl Phyllis Dexter.
Speaker 3 (01:54):
I hated doctor Paige. I thought I would always hate him.
Speaker 2 (01:57):
The story too, of.
Speaker 3 (01:59):
A nurse, Miss Ogilvy, staff Beatree Hospital. I love doctor Page.
I thought I would always love him.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
The story of a woman of great faith and courage.
Speaker 3 (02:09):
My mother, Missus John Dexter.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
And of a great religious man, Dean Harcourt of Trinity Cathedral.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
Man's progress in life is not steadily onward. Sometimes he
is stopped by something that is bigger and stronger than he,
something he cannot understand and over which he has no control.
That's something I like to think of as a red
light flashing a halt the forward surge of his life.
(02:37):
And I like to believe there's a power which controls
that life, which knows in its infinite wisdom that sometimes
man must stop to learn through suffering before going on.
For it is as inevitable as time that man progresses
to a better future, if not for himself, then through
(02:59):
his suffering for his fellow men. When he has land this,
the signal changes and the green light frees him to
resume his inexorable march into intective You have been listening
to him.
Speaker 4 (03:16):
Turn it off now, Doctor Page.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
What would religion be without music?
Speaker 4 (03:21):
There was religion long before there was music.
Speaker 2 (03:24):
I'm sorry. The usual greeting for the doctor is and
how is the little lady this morning.
Speaker 3 (03:29):
And I suppose the usual answer is terrible, doctor, But.
Speaker 5 (03:33):
Since we both are unusual people, I'd say your pulse
shows marvelous repose for a patient facing surgery.
Speaker 4 (03:39):
You can thank Dean Harcourt for that.
Speaker 5 (03:41):
I do, just as I'm thankful for anything that gives
a patient courage and confidence.
Speaker 4 (03:46):
A shorter word for courage and confidence is faith.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
Whatever it is, you'll need every bit of it. Now.
Speaker 4 (03:53):
More dead news.
Speaker 5 (03:54):
Oh, nothing really serious except that, well, it's not easy
to prepare one's self mentally for an operation. Sometimes a
postponement can cause a harmful reaction. What I'm trying to.
Speaker 3 (04:04):
Say is you're trying to tell me my operation has
been postponed.
Speaker 5 (04:09):
Yes, Doctor Ndicott has been detained in Milwaukee. He'll be
here as soon as he can.
Speaker 4 (04:13):
Milwauk is a beautiful city. It's always seemed full of
music to me. Years ago. We used to go there
to hear the community singing.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
You make it work, don't you? No?
Speaker 4 (04:23):
I simply let it work.
Speaker 5 (04:25):
How simple things would be if we all had your faith.
I'll let you know about the operation as soon as
I possibly can.
Speaker 4 (04:31):
I know you will.
Speaker 5 (04:44):
Any word, doctor, Ndicott yet, miss.
Speaker 3 (04:45):
Ogilvie, No, doctor, they can't seem to locate him.
Speaker 5 (04:47):
You're a missus Dexter's X raise now, thanks, good lord,
look at that. She can't hold out much longer.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
We've got to do something. We'll have to wait for Endicotte,
she says, patient.
Speaker 5 (04:57):
We can't postpone this operation any longer.
Speaker 2 (04:59):
Her life has at stake. Now our phone surgery? Are
you crazy? Not?
Speaker 5 (05:02):
Unless these X rays are surgery surgery this, doctor Page,
you can't do that. You will operate on missus Dexter immediately, Clay,
miss Ogiley.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
Yes, doctor Page, Doctor Page, Yes, Doctor Indicott, thank you doctor.
If you will.
Speaker 6 (05:28):
Assist me, I can take over now, yes, sir, the
horss Ogilvy, doctor Page, make a tie please.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
She's bleeding badly quick. Well, I'm afraid that's that I
did everything I could.
Speaker 7 (05:54):
She shouldn't have died, and you will you were doing
perfect work. If then the cot had been less upside
would rather than not talk.
Speaker 8 (05:59):
About it, exactly what happened. And I'm going to tell
everybody the truth.
Speaker 5 (06:02):
Don't you think it's doctor Ndicott's privileged to make his
own statement? First come in Hello, doctor Ndicott. Oh, uh, no,
glad you came in.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
I've been wanting to talk to you. I I sit down.
Speaker 6 (06:27):
Nasty business is Dexter death. I have been trying to
convince the Board of Directors that her death was an
unavoidable accident. It was unavoidable, wasn't.
Speaker 5 (06:36):
It, No, Sir, for some reason, you cut the pedicle
too short for safe legation. I couldn't make the tie,
and the hemorrhage resulted. It should never have happened.
Speaker 6 (06:47):
The problem now, I probably shouldn't have stepped in on
the operation, realizing the terrific strain I've been under.
Speaker 5 (06:53):
We all love missus Dexter.
Speaker 6 (06:55):
I felt that her life was my personal responsibility, but
all planes have been grounded on account of weather. I've
moved heaven and Earth to get here in time. I
haven't slept in two days.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
Too tired, I'm sorry, sir.
Speaker 6 (07:11):
A split second woman dies and the whole career dies
with her. A split second is against the forty years
I've given to medicine. I can't be judged on one
operation at of thousands, mule.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
I can't you? Hello, John? What time is it? What
time for you to pull yourself together?
Speaker 7 (07:40):
Get down to the hospital and tell Endercott on the
board where to head in.
Speaker 2 (07:43):
I can't do that. Why not?
Speaker 5 (07:45):
What do you want me to do? Stand up before
the board and say, dear, dear, kind gentlemen. It doesn't
matter to me that doctor Endicott taught me everything I
know about surgery. Doesn't matter that doctor Endicott is one
of the finest surgeons in the country. It doesn't matter
how many lives he's saved, how much pain he's eased,
how much comfort he's brought. No, none of that's important.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
Just me.
Speaker 5 (08:05):
I'm the only one who's important, big important, doctor Page.
I know it's tough, but you've got to protect yourself.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
A split second, a woman dies and a career dies
with her.
Speaker 5 (08:16):
That isn't right either. Dendicot's a human being too, He's
not infallible.
Speaker 7 (08:20):
That's no concern of yours. If you resign, you admit
that you were responsible for Missus Dexter's death, exactly well,
that clears endic it completely right. Confound that you sound
as if you were going to resign.
Speaker 9 (08:32):
I have already, Dean Harcourt.
Speaker 3 (08:48):
I'm Francis Ogilvy. I was the nurse on I was
Missus Dexter's nurse, and.
Speaker 8 (08:54):
She she always listened to your broadcast and I I.
Speaker 3 (08:59):
Had to talk to.
Speaker 2 (09:02):
You.
Speaker 8 (09:02):
See, I know what happened in that operating room, and
doctor Page won't defend himself because of professional ethics and that.
I wanted to speak up, but I thought I should
talk to someone first.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
No man makes sacrifices with that reason. Whatever that reason
may be, it's in itself compensation for his suffering.
Speaker 3 (09:20):
But why should doctor Page sacrifice himself for indicot for
the moment.
Speaker 2 (09:24):
That's doctor Page's problem, not yours. He must have had
good reasons, otherwise he wouldn't do it. There's nothing you
can do except respect that reason.
Speaker 8 (09:36):
I see I've taken a lot of your time. Is
there something I can.
Speaker 3 (09:40):
Do to repay you?
Speaker 2 (09:41):
Yes, Phyllis Dexter is waiting to see me. She's pretty
upset about her mother's death before I talked to her.
I want you to take her to the little ante
room where you were taken. Ask her whatever question that
you wish, then come back to me and tell me
what she says.
Speaker 8 (10:08):
Just throw your coat anywhere, Phyllis. Sorry, the apartment's a
little messy, It's.
Speaker 10 (10:11):
Not messy at all.
Speaker 11 (10:13):
I feel much better after talking to you, and it
was very kind of you to invite me over.
Speaker 9 (10:17):
Not at all.
Speaker 3 (10:18):
I got some coffee on Will you answer the door please?
Speaker 11 (10:21):
Sure?
Speaker 2 (10:23):
Oh I'm sorry. I thought this was miss Ogleby's apartment.
Speaker 10 (10:26):
It is.
Speaker 11 (10:27):
Come in?
Speaker 3 (10:28):
Who shall I tell her he's calling?
Speaker 2 (10:30):
No, hello, Francis.
Speaker 3 (10:33):
Oh come in man? Can I check your code?
Speaker 2 (10:37):
Oh? Thanks? I can only stay a moment.
Speaker 10 (10:38):
Perhaps i'd better go now.
Speaker 3 (10:39):
I had no idea you were expecting visitor. I wasn't.
He's the last person in the world I ever expected
to see here.
Speaker 5 (10:45):
What As a matter of fact, I didn't expect to
be here myself. I was out walking in the rain
when suddenly, to my surprise, I found myself in front
of your house.
Speaker 8 (10:52):
Uh, Miss Dexter, Mister Phillis Dexter just returned from England today,
Phillips Dexter. Miss Ogleby sort of kidnapped me away from myself.
Speaker 5 (11:02):
I wish you could do as much for me. That
is I er well, I have got to run along
as appointment.
Speaker 3 (11:07):
Miss Dexter. May I introduce mister Walker. If you're as
nice as Miss Ogilby, you'll be well worth knowing.
Speaker 5 (11:14):
Well, thank you. Sit down, well just for a moment.
I really can't stay. Did you uh enjoy London?
Speaker 10 (11:21):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (11:22):
Very much? Why are you staring at me?
Speaker 2 (11:25):
Well, I'm sorry.
Speaker 5 (11:26):
You remind me so much of someone really, yes, someone
very lovely.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
I never expected to meet anyone like that. Again.
Speaker 5 (11:34):
Time decides so many things, doesn't it. A split second
of time, something happens, two people meet accidentally, a knife slips,
someone takes the wrong turn, anything, and without warning, a
future has been created.
Speaker 3 (11:49):
Evidently you're a fatalist.
Speaker 5 (11:51):
Hardly, I I only know that things happen sometimes, it
seems with deliberate cruelty. Don't let anything happen to you
will hurt you. Well, I've got to go on.
Speaker 4 (12:03):
How good night, good night.
Speaker 3 (12:10):
What a strange man. He's a great guy. He's one
of a kind. Least, he's the only one I've ever seen.
Do you think he'll call again?
Speaker 8 (12:22):
Honey? There's no way of telling what he'll do ever,
As Dean Harcourt would say, the signals have changed. The
lights are against him right now, but he'll get the
green light again. He can't miss.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
Ladies and gentlemen. In a moment, we will return to
our play Green light starring Robert Young. But first a
message of hope for those in the world of pain,
the inspiring promise of greater healing. Because today in the
supply room of eighty three hundred and eighty three American
hospitals you will find Dennis. Yet only three years ago,
the wonder drug was almost a medical rarity. The firms
(13:05):
who devoted themselves to increasing the supplies of penicillin available
struggled against many obstacles inherent in its production. Numbered among
these firms was Shanley Laboratories. Although these companies have seen
the realization of their goal enough penicillin to fill essential needs,
they cannot feel their work is done. Up to the present,
(13:26):
research workers at Schenley Laboratories have developed such products as
penicillin tablets and trochies for administration by mouth, and penicillin
ointment and a foul apintment. Now these men are looking
forward to the perfecting and production of other, and perhaps
entirely different types of pharmaceuticals. It is, ever the aim
of Shenley Laboratories to know more of what benefits to
(13:48):
mankind may be derived from medical research. It is our aim, too,
to translate the knowledge we gain into production of more
and greater aids to healing for all members of the
medical profer. Now back to our play green Light, starring
Robert Young as Doctor Page and with Pedro Decordiba as
(14:08):
Dean Harcourt.
Speaker 5 (14:26):
Dean Harcourt, I came here to argue with you about
your concept of everlasting life.
Speaker 2 (14:30):
Paul right, please sit down.
Speaker 5 (14:33):
I want to know how you can justify needless death,
greed in the destruction of a career. I want to
know how you can reconcile such waste with your irresistible
onward drive. Why on the doctor Page who operated on
missus dexter.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
I see you have a fine religion, Doctor Page, I
have none, so far as I know. Religion has many definitions,
at least in my dictionary, such as loyalty, devotion, or perhaps.
Speaker 5 (15:01):
But my dictionary defines it as a kind of opiate
used by people with hurt sensibilities to dull them into drowsiness.
A man needs more than that in his life, something
he can get his hands on, something for which.
Speaker 2 (15:11):
To live, or else, something for which to die. I
can't even think of anything to die for. Yes, come in,
Hello Phyllis.
Speaker 3 (15:21):
Hello Dean Harcourt. Hello, mister, I had no idea you
knew Dean Harcourt.
Speaker 2 (15:26):
I didn't until a short while ago.
Speaker 3 (15:27):
Then you must be in some trouble.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
Is that why you're here?
Speaker 3 (15:31):
Dean Harcourt was my mother's friend. He's mine too. I
hope we'd meet again.
Speaker 11 (15:36):
I I wanted to ask you to explain some of
the strange things you said last night.
Speaker 5 (15:40):
I'm always saying strange things that I can't explain myself.
IW fe'll excuse me. Well, I had no idea you
too knew each other.
Speaker 3 (15:47):
I'd met mister Walker last night.
Speaker 2 (15:49):
Mister Splendid, you too should make excellent friends.
Speaker 3 (15:52):
I'm afraid mister Walker doesn't agree with you.
Speaker 2 (15:54):
That's not it. Miss Dexter might have made very good friends.
But we met a little too. Lady, my goodness, sits
lunch time already. You must be frightfully hungry. Phillis I
beg your pardon? I said you must be hungry. I'm
not sorry. I can't offer you any lunch. You eat,
don't you me? Oh? Sure, sure? I eat off. When
(16:15):
I was a young man, I was always taking a
young lady to luncheon, particularly if I've had some sort
of misunderstanding in fact, I was known as a hungry
harcourt you. Indeed, shall we have lunch? Miss dexteron good
you two run along and have a good time. And
by the way, if you have no other plans, have
(16:37):
dinner with me next Friday, both of us. I love to,
so would I, and bring Miss Guilty with you.
Speaker 3 (16:43):
Yes, Alaska, goodbye.
Speaker 2 (16:44):
See you Friday about it? Goodbye.
Speaker 3 (16:49):
You're a strange man.
Speaker 2 (16:51):
Why do you say that one.
Speaker 3 (16:52):
Moment you're so friendly in the next two. Why did
you say we.
Speaker 10 (16:57):
Met too late?
Speaker 5 (16:59):
Let's set up on this bench moment all right? Last night,
when I met you, it was like, well, it was
almost like the beginning of a world for me. I
don't know how to explain it very well. Except for
a moment. It was like the dawn coming up after
a long, dark night. It was as though in finding you,
(17:20):
I'd found an answer to everything, to every heart ache,
to every loneliness, to every torment. I looked at you
and I wanted to say, if you will spend your
days with me, I'll have everything I've ever dreamed about.
Speaker 11 (17:34):
You've thought all that, Yes, you know what I thought.
I thought in some strange way, in one look with
one smile. This man has put his hand upon my heart.
Speaker 2 (17:50):
And made it his.
Speaker 3 (17:53):
And I thought this is the beginning of many things.
Speaker 2 (17:57):
It was the beginning, but it was also the end,
the ending.
Speaker 5 (18:02):
Why because your name is Phyllis dexter mine is Newell page,
Doctor Newell page.
Speaker 10 (18:10):
New page page.
Speaker 5 (18:13):
Yes, that's why I didn't want to see you again,
at least not until I could find some way of
telling you.
Speaker 2 (18:17):
You you have no reason for hating me.
Speaker 10 (18:19):
No reason you killed my mother?
Speaker 5 (18:22):
No, well then who did?
Speaker 10 (18:26):
You might at least have been mad enough to.
Speaker 3 (18:27):
Accept the blame.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
You don't understand it was not.
Speaker 3 (18:29):
I think I do understand.
Speaker 10 (18:32):
Goodbye, doctor Paige.
Speaker 2 (18:45):
I can't understand why he isn't here.
Speaker 3 (18:48):
No, he's He's usually very prompt.
Speaker 2 (18:50):
Well he'll be along. Did you too have a nice
luncheon the other day.
Speaker 10 (18:54):
Phyllis, we didn't go to lunch?
Speaker 8 (18:56):
Why not?
Speaker 3 (18:58):
What happened?
Speaker 10 (18:59):
Nothing?
Speaker 3 (19:00):
I'm not telling the truth.
Speaker 10 (19:00):
You lied to me, you introduced doctor page of mister Walker.
Speaker 3 (19:05):
I see why, because I saw no reason to upset
you or him. I do anything I could to make
things easier for him.
Speaker 10 (19:11):
Why should he have things made easier for him? Don't
say it don't say it. I'm sick of philosophies and
sermons and terribles. I'm a human being. I have a
right to hate or love.
Speaker 2 (19:21):
Delis. What did Page do to you?
Speaker 10 (19:24):
He killed my mother.
Speaker 2 (19:25):
There's something else, something within you that's been killed.
Speaker 10 (19:30):
He lied to me.
Speaker 3 (19:31):
You love him?
Speaker 2 (19:32):
I don't.
Speaker 8 (19:32):
I despise he didn't even have the decency to take
the blame himself.
Speaker 3 (19:38):
Did he name another doctor?
Speaker 2 (19:39):
Oh?
Speaker 10 (19:40):
No, how could he?
Speaker 3 (19:41):
That's right, how could he? He's too decent, too honest
to break the rules he plays by.
Speaker 10 (19:47):
Why do you say that?
Speaker 3 (19:48):
No, no, I'll play according to Page's rules.
Speaker 2 (19:52):
Now.
Speaker 8 (19:53):
He didn't have to listen to sermons to become good.
He was born that way. He'll always be that way,
no matter what happens to him.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
I don't understand you will eventually, you see, my dear.
Until you have faith, you don't really love Francis. Yes,
I've learned much from you to day. Thank you?
Speaker 3 (20:15):
Will you excuse me from dinner?
Speaker 10 (20:16):
Please?
Speaker 2 (20:18):
Where are you going?
Speaker 3 (20:19):
Define? I'll answer the door. Telegram, Harcourt, find your piss,
Thank you, it's for you? Oh what what is it?
Speaker 2 (20:36):
I'm afraid you'll have to go a long way phyllis.
He's in Montana, Montana. The wires from a doctor Lane.
He says, you will ask him to wire and explain
that he couldn't come to dinner. And he says he's
very ill. He deliberately let a wood tick bite him
so that he could infect himself with spotted fever.
Speaker 3 (21:00):
Spotted fever.
Speaker 2 (21:02):
He wants to be used as a human guinea pig
to test the vaccine.
Speaker 3 (21:06):
Oh no, come on, We've got to get doctor Endicott
in a hurry, Doctor Endicott. Doctor Page is with John.
Speaker 2 (21:17):
Lane on Boone Mountain. Yes, I won't have him that
pest hole. He'll die like all the rest.
Speaker 3 (21:22):
He may be dying now. He's down with spotted fever.
He gave it to himself to test a vaccine.
Speaker 2 (21:26):
My fault. If he dies, my fault. He mustn't die.
I won't let him. We'll trot her a plane. Get
out there right away. That's my temperature. It was one
hundred and two point nine an hour ago. How do
you feel? Not bad? Kind of groggy? Pain in the
(21:48):
lower quadron of the abdomen.
Speaker 5 (21:50):
Make a note of it. I want to see how
long it lasts.
Speaker 7 (21:53):
Why did you ever do such a full thing, deliberately
infecting yourself, risking your life.
Speaker 2 (21:58):
If I die, I don't particularly care, and you will
have learned something.
Speaker 12 (22:04):
There seems to be a congestion of developing in the lungs.
How about taking a blood count. I'd like to see
if I'm losing any resistance.
Speaker 2 (22:22):
Hello, doctor Lane, how is he?
Speaker 3 (22:24):
Is he conscious?
Speaker 2 (22:25):
Yes, but he's thinking. We'll go right in. Not humus dexter.
We don't want to upset it. Hello Noul.
Speaker 5 (22:36):
Hello doctor Hendicott. Francis, we can use you. John's getting
sick of keeping my chart. We aren't going to let
you die. You won't have anything to say about it
if that vaccine doesn't work. At the present, I share
the same place in society with the guinea pig. Yeah,
(22:59):
guess make that blood count. Watch my temperature closely. I
am I'm becoming stuporous.
Speaker 3 (23:08):
He's unconscious.
Speaker 5 (23:10):
No, not yet, Keep your nerve, Francis, you're an old
hand this sort of thing.
Speaker 3 (23:19):
Yes, Doctor Page.
Speaker 2 (23:28):
What's my temperature?
Speaker 3 (23:30):
One hundred and four point one?
Speaker 2 (23:32):
Heart action weakening?
Speaker 12 (23:37):
John, better not talk. You will take another blood count.
Temperature one hundred and four point one should break before
it reaches one hundred and five.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
Can't take one hundred five, Francis.
Speaker 6 (24:01):
If he dies, I will have killed him, just as
I killed Missus Dexter.
Speaker 3 (24:08):
What did you say, doctor Ndicott.
Speaker 2 (24:09):
I was to blame Phyllis.
Speaker 6 (24:11):
I was at fault, and I never should have let
him take the blame. He's got to live, if there's
any justice at all, he's got to live.
Speaker 3 (24:22):
Now. You know what you needed to know, Phyllis. No,
I haven't really needed to know anything since the moment
when I knew I loved here.
Speaker 2 (24:31):
His temperatures up to one hundred and four point two.
Speaker 3 (24:33):
I'll go write in.
Speaker 8 (24:40):
Temperature last four reading steady one hundred four point two.
Speaker 10 (24:43):
Doctor Endicott, can't you do something? We can't just sit
here let him die.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
There's nothing we can do for him now except pray.
Speaker 5 (24:51):
Francis Phyllis not to rendic.
Speaker 3 (24:55):
His temperature.
Speaker 2 (24:58):
Look at his temperature.
Speaker 4 (25:00):
One hundred and three point one.
Speaker 3 (25:03):
It's licked, Fellas, it's licked.
Speaker 8 (25:06):
He's gonna live.
Speaker 3 (25:07):
He's gonna be all.
Speaker 5 (25:08):
Right, Doctor Ndigott. There's a place for you out here.
Speaker 6 (25:28):
No, you, fellas have already done the most important work
on spoted for you.
Speaker 2 (25:32):
You won't need me here.
Speaker 5 (25:34):
But the people will need great doctors to help them
through their birth, doctors who haven't forgotten their oath to
their fellow men. To share my substance with him and
to relieve his necessities when required.
Speaker 6 (25:46):
I guess I lost sight of what being a doctor
means for a while, Noul, But.
Speaker 2 (25:51):
I think I've got the green light now myself.
Speaker 5 (25:54):
You've been listening to Dean Harcourt too, Yes, I've been listening,
and I'm going to stay out of here.
Speaker 11 (26:00):
You.
Speaker 3 (26:01):
A letter just came from Baytree.
Speaker 2 (26:04):
Yes, yes, I wrote them explaining everything. Holy smoke, they've
appointed me chief surgeon at bay Tree.
Speaker 3 (26:10):
Oh, I'm so proud of.
Speaker 5 (26:11):
You, Oh, Phyllis, Phyllis, How rich I am? How fortunate,
how lucky, how happy? Are grateful? There aren't enough adjectives
to say it.
Speaker 6 (26:23):
I don't like to interrupt Love's young dream, but it's
time for Dean Harcourt.
Speaker 2 (26:26):
Oh, the depths of the riches of the wisdom and
knowledge of God, How unsearchable are his judgments and his
ways past finding? For who has known the mind of
the law, or who hath been his counselor, or who
hath first given to him? And it shall be recompensed.
Unto him again, thought of him, and through him, and
(26:51):
in him out all things to him be glory forever.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
Amen In in a moment, we'll bring back our star
Robert Young, Ladies and gentlemen, Shenley Laboratories, maker of penicillin.
Shanley would like to remind you that the American standard
(27:19):
of health is higher than that of any other country.
Speaker 2 (27:22):
In the world.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
We feel sure you will agree that the man who
has done most to make the situation true is the
American doctor. Shenry Laboratory's pledges to do all within our
power to aid America's positions and their work of maintaining
America's high standards of health. And now, ladies and gentlemen,
mister Robert.
Speaker 5 (27:40):
Young, Ladies and gentlemen, to sum up the spirit of
this Shanley Laboratories program. This beautiful and simple prayer of
the physician, written centuries ago by Mamianides, 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
(28:01):
fellow creature in pain. Grant me strength and opportunity always
to extend the domain of my craft. This is the
prayer of the physician. It is age as old, and
yet today 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 Shenley Laboratories presents Men in White starring
(28:22):
Robert Taylor, A great star and a great story.
