Transcript

From Hollywood, California, the Lux Radio Theater presents Joan Bennett and Henry Fonda with Mae Robeson in I Met My Love Again. That presents Hollywood. I want to say thank you to the thousands and thousands of women who buy Luxe toilets off regularly.

This kind of loyalty is what makes our program possible. And now before going on, I want to mention that tonight we are making a special offer to the ladies. We'll send them, almost as a gift, a new, smartly designed double compact.

We'll tell you later how you can get this beautiful compact, and we suggest that you have pencil and paper ready. Our stars tonight are Joan Bennett, Henry Fonda, Mae Robeson, Margaret Hamilton, and Louise Platt, and I met my love again.

As special guest, Jimmy Starr, Hollywood's famous news columnist. Lewis Silvers conducts our music. And now, here is the producer of the Lux Radio Theatre. Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Cecil B. DeMille. Greetings from Hollywood, ladies and gentlemen.

Throughout the land, May 30th is a day of tribute and remembrance. We of the Lux Radio Theatre join in paying our respects to the memory of those Americans, men from the North and men from the South, who from Lexington to the Argonne, fought and died, that this country might have the peace and progress we now gratefully enjoy.

Tonight, we bring you the story of a great love, which triumphs only after a loss of many years. And starring as the two who lose and find their love again are Joan Bennett and Henry Fonda.

Three hundred years ago, while the ancestors of Joan Bennett were wandering around England and Scotland as scrolling players, both my forebears and those of Henry Fonda decided to see America first. They did their wandering across the Atlantic and wound up in a town called New Amsterdam, which the newcomers of the past 274 years have been calling New York.
