Transcript

Luck presents Hollywood. Luck's radio theater brings you William Powell and Rita Hayworth in The Lady Has Plan. Ladies and gentlemen, your producer, Mr. Tessel Bean De Mill. Greetings from Hollywood, ladies and gentlemen.

In motion pictures and radio, there's no substitute for Bill Powell. But teaming Bill and Rita Hayworth should make an excellent substitute for dynamite. For years we've been measuring feminine popularity by, by mere box office returns and fan mail.

Then along came global war and the pin-up girl. And that hardly a lady now alive who's been pinned up on more barracks walls than Rita Hayworth. We borrowed Bill Powell from the cast of the Metro Golden Mayor picture, the Heavenly Buddy.

And Rita Hayworth from the Columbia picture, cover girl. And tonight, they co-star in the Paramount thriller The Lady Has Plan. The scene of the play is Lisbon, City of Mystery and Intrigue, where there's a secret agent on every corner, and the plans for a secret weapon are tattooed on a lady's bank.

You never can depend on luck, but you can always depend on luck's light. Now let's investigate why the lady has planned, starring Rita Hayworth as Sidney Wright and William Powell as Ken Harper. Hello. Hello, Chazi. This is Baker.
