Transcript

This is Bill Goodwin speaking for Lever Brothers, makers of Swan, the new white floating soap that's pure as fine cast deals. Well, it's Tuesday night again time for another pleasant visit with George Burns and Gracie Allen, our guest, lovely Loretta Young, with Jimmy Cash, the Swan Tets, Felix Mills, and his orchestra.

And now meet the people who live in the Burns House, George and Gracie! But before we visit the Burnses, let's look in for a moment on a dramatic scene taking place in the office of a Hollywood attorney.

Calm myself. Just listen to this drivel. Sensational daring exposé. The secret love of Loretta Young by Gracie Allen. Well, that's fantastic. Fantastic. It's hardly the word for it. Listen to this. Who is the mysterious Mr. X, who holds the key to Loretta Young's heart.
