Transcript

Lux presents Hollywood. The Lux Radio Theatre brings you Bing Crosby, Bob Hope and Ginny Sims in The Road to Morocco. Ladies and gentlemen, your producer, Mr. Cecil B. DeMille. Greetings from Hollywood ladies and gentlemen.

All the producer needs to guarantee your smashing success at the box office these days is Faith, Hope and Crosby. And our faith is considerably strengthened tonight by the addition of Ginny Sims. Bing and Bob hit the jackpot for Paramount with that epic drama of music and mirth called the Road to Morocco. And believe me there's nothing wrong with

your morale that the Road to Morocco won't cure. If you've seen the picture three or four times like most people you know that any resemblance of two characters in this play to a couple of living persons is no coincidence. They are really Bing Crosby and Bob Hope. The road to Morocco comes pretty close to setting a record

for the number of people who've asked us to present it. Since the Paramount picture came out, I've lost count of all the letters you've sent in closing Luxe toilet soap wrappers as your tickets to this play if we could get it. Along with his soap wrappers, one man offered me a personal bride of a porterhouse steak. Well, this is one theater where you don't have to pay to

get in. It's our way of showing you that we appreciate the support you've given our product. The result is that you win two ways. You get a hit play like the Road to Morocco and a hit product like Luxe toilet soap. You can't beat that for a double bill. Now we're off on the Road to Morocco, starring Bing Crosby, Bob Hope and Ginny Sims.
