Transcript

Hollywood ladies and gentlemen, you're a producer, Mr. Irving Colley. Greetings from Hollywood ladies and gentlemen. Tonight's play, Stairway to Heaven, is another J. Arthur rank production which received international acclaim.

It pretend to romance between a British pilot and an American girl, who are separated by a heavenly messenger. And as our stars of this delightful fantasy, we have David Niven in his original role, and the Universal International Star, Bob Roorush.

Later they will join me for a preview. The story of two worlds. The one you know calls us. And another, existing only in the mind of a young pirate. Whose life and imagination have been violently shaped by war.

My station wand is Wama Group Chief and George. Send them a signal please. One, it's Wama Group. Oh, my name is not Dean George. It's Carter. Carter. Be the decartan. No, I can't land the only character.
