Family Theater: The Lion Tamer

Family Theater presents Mona Freeman and Alan Young. From Hollywood, the mutual network in cooperation with Family Theater presents Alan Young in The Lion Tamer.

To introduce the drama, your hostess Mona Freeman. Thank you Larry Chatterton. Family Theater's only purpose is to bring to everyone's attention a practice that must become an important part of our lives if we are to win peace for ourselves, peace for our families and peace for the world. Family theater urges you to pray. Pray together as

a family. The Wallington Right Smith III lives in a very nice but small Middlewestern town. With such a distinguished name as Donald Wallington Right Smith III, one might think the lad was at the very top of the social register. But alas, he's only a poor window trimmer in the town's leading and only department store, the Halliday Emporium.

Of course, there's always the possibility of his owning the Emporium someday, since he's madly in love with Jeannie, the boss's daughter. But unfortunately, the odds are against him, since Papa Halliday is neither pleased with a romance, nor with Donald's abilities as a window trimmer or anything else for that manner.

Oblivious of this, however, the biggest problem in Donald's life at the moment seems to be a little thing called money. You know that wonderful green stuff which is supposed to bring us happiness. And what's more Mr. Halliday? If you don't give me a raise I'll quit your old job. Now Mr. Halliday I have all respect for you, believe me, and this

glorious establishment. But you must realize that as Anderson's Ville's best window trimmer I have been dependable, reliable, trustworthy and therefore knowing you cannot do without I speak. Who are you talking to up there? No one, ma'am.
