Lux presents Hollywood. The Lux Radio Theatre brings you Pibber-Matee and Molly in the whole town's talking with Paul Guilfoyle. Ladies and gentlemen, your producer, Mr. Cecil B. Jamil. Greetings from Hollywood, ladies and gentlemen. One of the miraculous things about radio is the feeling of intimacy between the people on your side of the microphone
and the people on this side. Long before I ever met tonight's stars, I considered them as old friends because, like millions of other radio listeners on Tuesday nights, my ears belong to Fiba McGee and Molly.
We introduced them to you as legitimate actors about a year ago. By return, Mayor, you asked for more. Finding the right kind of more took a little time. But I think we've got it here in a play called The Whole Town's Talking, which is a good bet to keep the whole country listening to the return engagement
of Fiba McGee and Molly in the Lux Radio Theatre. This return engagement will be good news to every member of our audience from Mississippi to Manitoba, and we've just received a letter from Manitoba that I'm sure will interest you.
It's from a woman in the town of Portage La Prairie, who writes, Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your splendid plays. They make Monday the highlight of our week. As you probably know, we and the prairies are going through rather hard times, grass upper plagues, drought, hail and wind, have all taken their toll, and we don't have a
lot of money for entertainment. So your plagues fill a big want in our lives. And thank goodness, luck soap is not a luxury. Not in price at any rate, even though it is a luxury in quality.
