Transcript

From Hollywood, the Hollywood Radio Theater. I'm Heston and Donna Lee in The Naked Jungle. Ladies and gentlemen, your producer, Mr. Irving Connie. Ladies and gentlemen, ladies and gentlemen, tonight we bring you the unusual romance of a beautiful bride who traveled into the wilderness to meet her husband for the first time.

A proud and ruthless man who built a huge plantation in The Naked Jungle. Only to have his entire fortune threatened by an army of man-eating ants. And as our stars of his current George Powell production for Paramount Pictures, we have one of our most charming Academy Award winners, Donna Reed and Hanson, Charlton Heston, who will recreate his role of the courageous adventurer.

Now act one of a naked jungle starring Charlton Heston as Christopher and Donald Reed as Joe and our Linerton. A few weeks had passed since I had started a long journey to South America. But now the end was almost in sight.

There were only three others aboard the time you were able to vote. The captain, his helper and the government official. We are coming close Mrs. Linerengine. Soon you will see the beginning of your husband's land.

I said he's not getting my things together. Oh, there is no hurry. We won't reach his job until tomorrow. What was this, that varch? His plantation? Ah, there is more to it than it is.

It is another world. And your husband? More powerful than it seems. You know he well, Commissioner? I have known Mr. Linen-Jin since he first came here in 1886, 50 years. But no, I do not know him well.

But you know all about me, don't you? You haven't mentioned it, but I'm sure you know all about me. You are 25 years old. you come from New Orleans and you married Mr. Linings in by proxy. You have never seen each other.
