Luck presents Hollywood. The Luck's Radio Theatre brings you Barbara Stammick, Ray Meland and Charles Corbin in the Lady Eve. Ladies and gentlemen, your producer, Mr. Cecil B. DeMille. Greetings from Hollywood, ladies and gentlemen.
Tonight, the Luck's Radio Theatre will be curtailed to 45 minutes so that we may all hear the President of the United States, Vice President Wallace and Secretary of Agriculture, Rickert, keep tuned to this station and you will be sure to hear them.
Now, compared to what Barbara Stanwick does to Ray Meland in tonight's play, The Lady Eve, the woes of Adam seem like the life of Riley. Eve used an apple. Ms. Stanwick, aided and abetted by Charles Coburn, uses a deck of cards, a treacherous disguise, and a tropic moon.
After what Barbara did with this blitzkrieg combination and the Paramount picture, Ray Milan should be forewarned of what's ahead of him tonight. But the Lady Eve gets her just desserts. She may be a card shop, but she's helpless when love deals races from the bottom of the deck.
This time every year I take on a little extra job. One that seems to go very well with producing pictures and radio plays, and also with luck toilet soap. in colleges all over the country, send photographs of the girls in their graduating classes and ask me to pick the most beautiful, a very simple request but not easy to answer. At first glance
it usually looks like a tie. In those cases I suspect that all the girls have been using Luxe toilet soap since they were able to talk and a girl can say, Luxe very young. Now the curtain and the first act of the Lady Eve, starring Barbara Stanley as Jean Harrington, Ray Milan as Charles Pike and Charles Coburn as Colonel Harrington.
