Transcript

Lux presents Hollywood. The Lux Radio Theater brings you Grizzlies Millions, starring Pat O'Brien, Lynn Barry, and Elizabeth Risen. Ladies and gentlemen, your guest producer, Mr. Otto Kruger. Good evening, ladies and gentlemen.

Not long ago, one of Hollywood's busiest screen authors visited a mining town in Colorado to forget the cares of writing. And while there became intrigued with the gaunt decaying mansion of the town's most prosperous miner, A giant ruin of a house was with tottering tubulars and echoing towers, more scovered walls and shutters creaking in the wind.

You can imagine how that might affect the mind of an accomplished mystery writer. But you don't have to imagine for tonight we bring you the story inspired by that eerie setting, Risley's Millions, a mystery thriller from Republic Pictures produces a besun to be released Earl Carroll's Veneties.

With him is a charming lady from Virginia, New England, brown-haired, hazel-eyed Lynne Berry, and third in tonight's cast in the role that she portrayed so ably on the screen is Miss Elizabeth Risen.

Together this trio is conspired not only to challenge our wits but to frighten us out of them into the bargain, and to warm our heartstrings with a strange and tender love too. for with spring officially two days away, it's only fitting that we add a touch of romance to our story.
