The Grand Duchess and the Waiter

Hence Robert Montgomery and Alyssa Landy in The Grand Duchess and The Waiter with Gene Lockhart and Alma Kruger. Lux presents Hollywood, our stars Robert Montgomery, Alyssa Landy, Gene Lockhart, Alma Kruger and Lionel Pape. Our guests, Vince Barnett and Natalie Bucknell, our producer Cecil B. DeMille, our conductor, Lewis Silvers.

On behalf of our sponsors, the makers of Lux Flakes welcome everyone to another hour in Hollywood. Attention, housewives! Here are three points to bear in mind for close protection. Lux Flakes cut down runs in silk stockings by preserving the elasticity of the threads.

They keep your clothes new looking so much longer by doing away with harsh cake-soaked rubbing. Lux Flakes are so gentle that we include even your daintiest launch array and saying, anything safe in water alone is safe in lux.

Try lux tomorrow. And now, the producer of the Lux Radio Theatre, ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Cecil B. DeMille. Greetings from Hollywood, ladies and gentlemen. By birth and circumstance, tonight's stars are well equipped to play the parts of a noble woman and a waiter.

Alyssa Landy happens to be the daughter of a Countess, while Robert Montgomery proved his ability to wait by waiting nine years before fame and fortune came to him in Hollywood. Both are under contract to MGM.

Bob left the job as a deckhand on an oil tanker to play tank towns and stock companies. He wrote for a while in Greenwich Village, but preferring three meals a day to art went to Otto Kahn for advice and alone.

He got the advice. Once on Broadway, however, Bob's ability was quickly recognized. He turned down silent picture offers, but turned westward when talkies arrived. Fourth the screen, Bob's as serious as he's carefree on it.
