Just that he had to see your husband ride away?
Said it was a crisis, a crisis.

Speaker 4 (03:33):
That's terrible. Probably one of those broken down actors finally
got a job and they're planning a torchlight parade.

Agnes, this can only mean one thing. The Proscenium Club
found out my husband's secret.
Speaker 4 (03:45):
You mean that he has two heads.

Must have found out.
Speaker 6 (04:17):
And Jarvis himself is coming to tell Edwin he's been
thrown out of the club Agnes.

This will kill.
Speaker 4 (04:22):
Edwin that well when you are in love.
Speaker 6 (04:28):

They shared the same dressing room.
Speaker 4 (04:34):
Two hands from the same smallhouse. Edwin Montague is no hands,
You kidding, my honey. Oh, I hear him.
Speaker 7 (04:44):
He's up.
Speaker 5 (04:47):

Hyah, bustas uh the.
Speaker 3 (04:56):
Little still with us.
Speaker 5 (04:59):
I guess there was nothing in that rumor that you
were returning to wrestling on television.
Speaker 4 (05:07):
What a doll, as they say in French bocou schmow.
Speaker 3 (05:12):
Lily.
Speaker 5 (05:12):
When we were first married, you wanted a cocker Spaniel
and I wanted the bulldogs in Agnes.
Speaker 3 (05:18):
We have both.
Speaker 7 (05:21):
Now as bringing Edwin's breakfast.
Speaker 4 (05:24):

Speaker 7 (05:38):
When you might just as well know it. Jarvis is
coming up to see you.
Speaker 4 (05:41):
He said, it's a crisis.
Speaker 5 (05:43):
Really, they found out. They found out I'm in radio.
I've been betrayed. Ages have you told anybody I'm uncle
good heart?
Speaker 4 (05:52):
Why I'm more ashamed of it than you are.
Speaker 5 (05:56):
Oh, Lily, Lily, my treachery has been revealed. Edwin Montague,
a Presidium member, have broken the thin covering ranks of
the defenders of the theater to go over to the
enemy radio.
Speaker 4 (06:08):
Oh what a rogue and cousin slave am I beat
me daddy a to the bar, Lily.
Speaker 8 (06:16):
I can't taste the disgrace Edwin.
Speaker 7 (06:18):
Maybe you can explain. It's just a little radio program.
Speaker 3 (06:21):
Ahha, just a little Lily.
Speaker 5 (06:24):
They've drummed Cecil Banks out of the club because a
second cousin of his will heard on a quiz program.
Speaker 7 (06:31):
There must be a way, Lily.
Speaker 5 (06:32):
There's no way back. Better death, better death than what
I have to face. They will turn my picture of
the wall. From this day on, they will speak of
me as though I were dead.
Speaker 4 (06:43):
What a wonderful idea, Lily.
Speaker 3 (06:46):
I'm a lost band.
Speaker 5 (06:47):
No more to while away the long afternoons at the
club with my old cronyes, recalling my great triumphs in
the theater, sitting in front of the fires in the
Shakespeare room, silently wooing.
Speaker 3 (06:59):
Tests is the goddess of the drama.
Speaker 4 (07:02):
I wonder who's kissing her?
Speaker 5 (07:03):
Now?
Speaker 3 (07:07):
Quiet? Then, I've just thought of the most wonderful game for.
Speaker 5 (07:11):
Our next picnic, ducking for agness.
Speaker 7 (07:19):
Oh that's Jarvis.
Speaker 3 (07:20):
Let's pretend no one's home.
Speaker 5 (07:21):

Services will be held at three o'clock.
Speaker 9 (07:34):
There, Sir Jarvis Montague Montague, dear friend, blow blow thou
winter wine. Thou art not so unkind as man's ingratitude.
Speaker 5 (07:48):
Oh Jarvis, remember enough as this broken man, But as
I was in our first play together.
Speaker 9 (07:53):
Remember your part Hemlet, Lord Hamlet.
Speaker 3 (07:56):
But soft hot noise who calls on Hamlet.

Speaker 4 (08:04):
Can we send down forests?
Speaker 8 (08:11):
All right?
Speaker 5 (08:11):
Rebecca, back to Sunnybrook Farm, Jarvis, for old time's sake, don't.
Speaker 9 (08:19):
Be hard on me, Montague Montague. If I could see
any way out of it, I'd have spared you, but
the others insisted they did. Yes, I had to put
you down for twenty five dollars, twenty five dollars.
Speaker 3 (08:31):
What are you talking about? What's the crisis.
Speaker 8 (08:33):
There's no money for our preseniums on the fund.
Speaker 9 (08:35):
Oh there is a Montagu to me, the fact that
the Prosenium Club trait resent is hardly a reason for
such rejoicing.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
Is it bad, Agnes Jarvis to give me?
Speaker 5 (08:47):
I was just happy because, well, because I'm in a
position to give you fifty dollars.
Speaker 9 (08:52):
Fifty dollars Montague, you you giving fifty dollars?
Speaker 4 (08:58):
Yeah, hit the daily double at Highley.
Speaker 5 (09:02):
I warned you, I guess I warned you, just for
that low cannel ration for you tonight, Javis, My last
cent would go for our summer fund, Lili and I
would gladly go without.
Speaker 7 (09:14):
Yes, Jovis, that's how we see.
Speaker 9 (09:15):
My father spelt the way you do. Our goal of
five hundred dollars will be achieved.
Speaker 4 (09:19):
Well, I got forty cents a night work, and thank you.
Speaker 8 (09:22):
Job is five hundred dollars yesterday.
Speaker 5 (09:25):
You know, every summer when the theater's closed in New York,
the club raises five hundred dollars to give to Broadways
neediest actor to tie him over the fall.
Speaker 9 (09:33):
And this year some medi comrade will not receive it.
In order to live, he'll break the ranks.
Speaker 3 (09:38):
And go into radio. Radio. Radio.
Speaker 9 (09:43):
Ah, curse it be thy name, and curse it be
our weak willed former members who've fallen into thy evil clutches,
members who shall live in the presnium book of infamy,
traitors to our beloved and embattled theater.
Speaker 4 (09:55):
Pardon me, I smelled somebody's ears.
Speaker 5 (09:57):
Burning, Jarvis, Will it actually be lowering our principles? If
we ask those former members who are now working in
radio to contribute, we need five hundred dollars, they'd give money.
Speaker 8 (10:11):
Never.
Speaker 9 (10:12):
Never, that's dirty money, fool's gold. No, Montague, we must
take care of our own. They shall not contaminate us
who have not fall I understand. Goodbye Montague, gallant soldier,
cheaper of the flame of Shakespeare.
Speaker 8 (10:29):
Goodbye Jarvis, no cracks a noble heart.
Speaker 9 (10:34):
Good night, sweet prince.

Shakespeare said, it the evil that men do follows after them.
Speaker 8 (11:07):
Them, it lives after them.
Speaker 3 (11:09):
Oh, my offense is rank.
Speaker 8 (11:12):

head held high, another year to maintain the fight to
keep the theater we love alive.

Oh, Agnes, this is terrible.
Speaker 4 (03:33):
That's terrible. Probably one of those broken down actors finally
got a job and they're planning a torchlight parade.
Speaker 6 (03:40):
Agnes, this can only mean one thing. The Proscenium Club
found out my husband's secret.
Speaker 4 (03:45):
You mean that he has two heads.
Speaker 7 (03:49):

Edwin that well when you are in love.
Speaker 6 (04:28):

What a doll, as they say in French bocou schmow.
Speaker 3 (05:12):
Lily.
Speaker 5 (05:12):

Really, they found out. They found out I'm in radio.
I've been betrayed. Ages have you told anybody I'm uncle
good heart?
Speaker 4 (05:52):
Why I'm more ashamed of it than you are.
Speaker 5 (05:56):
Oh, Lily, Lily, my treachery has been revealed. Edwin Montague,
a Presidium member, have broken the thin covering ranks of
the defenders of the theater to go over to the
enemy radio.
Speaker 4 (06:08):
Oh what a rogue and cousin slave am I beat
me daddy a to the bar, Lily.
Speaker 8 (06:16):
I can't taste the disgrace Edwin.
Speaker 7 (06:18):
Maybe you can explain. It's just a little radio program.
Speaker 3 (06:21):
Ahha, just a little Lily.
Speaker 5 (06:24):
They've drummed Cecil Banks out of the club because a
second cousin of his will heard on a quiz program.
Speaker 7 (06:31):
There must be a way, Lily.
Speaker 5 (06:32):
There's no way back. Better death, better death than what
I have to face. They will turn my picture of
the wall. From this day on, they will speak of
me as though I were dead.
Speaker 4 (06:43):
What a wonderful idea, Lily.
Speaker 3 (06:46):
I'm a lost band.
Speaker 5 (06:47):
No more to while away the long afternoons at the
club with my old cronyes, recalling my great triumphs in
the theater, sitting in front of the fires in the
Shakespeare room, silently wooing.
Speaker 3 (06:59):
Tests is the goddess of the drama.
Speaker 4 (07:02):
I wonder who's kissing her?
Speaker 5 (07:03):
Now?
Speaker 3 (07:07):
Quiet? Then, I've just thought of the most wonderful game for.
Speaker 5 (07:11):
Our next picnic, ducking for agness.
Speaker 7 (07:19):
Oh that's Jarvis.
Speaker 3 (07:20):

I was in our first play together.
Speaker 9 (07:53):
Remember your part Hemlet, Lord Hamlet.
Speaker 3 (07:56):
But soft hot noise who calls on Hamlet.

Speaker 8 (08:11):
All right?
Speaker 5 (08:11):
Rebecca, back to Sunnybrook Farm, Jarvis, for old time's sake, don't.
Speaker 9 (08:19):
Be hard on me, Montague Montague. If I could see
any way out of it, I'd have spared you, but
the others insisted they did. Yes, I had to put
you down for twenty five dollars, twenty five dollars.
Speaker 3 (08:31):
What are you talking about? What's the crisis.
Speaker 8 (08:33):
There's no money for our preseniums on the fund.
Speaker 9 (08:35):
Oh there is a Montagu to me, the fact that
the Prosenium Club trait resent is hardly a reason for
such rejoicing.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
Is it bad, Agnes Jarvis to give me?
Speaker 5 (08:47):
I was just happy because, well, because I'm in a
position to give you fifty dollars.
Speaker 9 (08:52):
Fifty dollars Montague, you you giving fifty dollars?
Speaker 4 (08:58):
Yeah, hit the daily double at Highley.

that low cannel ration for you tonight, Javis, My last
cent would go for our summer fund, Lili and I
would gladly go without.
Speaker 7 (09:14):
Yes, Jovis, that's how we see.
Speaker 9 (09:15):
My father spelt the way you do. Our goal of
five hundred dollars will be achieved.
Speaker 4 (09:19):
Well, I got forty cents a night work, and thank you.
Speaker 8 (09:22):
Job is five hundred dollars yesterday.
Speaker 5 (09:25):
You know, every summer when the theater's closed in New York,
the club raises five hundred dollars to give to Broadways
neediest actor to tie him over the fall.
Speaker 9 (09:33):
And this year some medi comrade will not receive it.
In order to live, he'll break the ranks.
Speaker 3 (09:38):
And go into radio. Radio. Radio.
Speaker 9 (09:43):
Ah, curse it be thy name, and curse it be
our weak willed former members who've fallen into thy evil clutches,
members who shall live in the presnium book of infamy,
traitors to our beloved and embattled theater.
Speaker 4 (09:55):
Pardon me, I smelled somebody's ears.
Speaker 5 (09:57):
Burning, Jarvis, Will it actually be lowering our principles? If
we ask those former members who are now working in
radio to contribute, we need five hundred dollars, they'd give money.
Speaker 8 (10:11):
Never.
Speaker 9 (10:12):
Never, that's dirty money, fool's gold. No, Montague, we must
take care of our own. They shall not contaminate us
who have not fall I understand. Goodbye Montague, gallant soldier,
cheaper of the flame of Shakespeare.
Speaker 8 (10:29):
Goodbye Jarvis, no cracks a noble heart.
Speaker 9 (10:34):
Good night, sweet prince.
Speaker 4 (10:38):
Well, now you can relax. He doesn't know you're in radio,
sweet print.

He doesn't know.
Speaker 5 (10:46):
But I know, Lila. They look up to me. Me

Speaker 4 (10:56):
Hi, hang on to your head, kids. Here we go again.
Speaker 8 (11:00):
And it will be forgot, forgotten.
Speaker 5 (11:02):
Shakespeare said, it the evil that men do follows after them.
Speaker 8 (11:07):
Them, it lives after them.
Speaker 3 (11:09):
Oh, my offense is rank.
Speaker 8 (11:12):
It smells to the skuise, to the heaven, to the heavens.

my neck? Must be a way of getting at five
