My Reputation

Lux presents Hollywood. Leave a Brothers Company, the makers of Lux Flakes, bring you the Lux Radio Theatre, starring Barbara Stanwick and George Brent in My Reputation. Ladies and gentlemen, your producer, Mr. William Keeley. Greetings from Hollywood, ladies and gentlemen.

A few years ago when I was in India, I was reminded that primitive societies solved the question of what to do with a widow by simply burning her on the funeral pyre beside her husband.

Tonight's play from Warner Brothers' recent screen success, My Reputation, shows that today that problem isn't solved so easily, fortunately for the widow. It dramatizes the modern version of the widow who tries to remake her life in the face of critical convention. Our stars are from the original cast, Barbara Stanwick and George Bred. Barbara making her first radio appearance since returning from three

months in Europe. Knowing from personal experience how scarce Sophie has overseas, I asked Barbara how she ever got along with outlooks flakes. Well Bill she said I didn't. I had several packages in my wardrobe trunk and guarded them as carefully our passports. Well, I'm sure that's no surprise to the ladies in our audience who

have done much traveling. You know from your own experience how helpful Lux plates are in keeping nice things fresh and clean in crowded quarters. Here's the curtain for act one of my reputation starring Barbara Stanwick as Jessica Drummond and George Brent as Major Landis. Late summer of 1944, following a long illness Paul Drummond died. A comparatively young man well to do for the lovely wife

and two fine boys Paul Drummond had everything to live for. It's a couple of days after the funeral now and in a charming home in Lake Pahras, Illinois the widow Jessica Drummond is visited by her mother. Come in mother sorry I'm not dressed. Really Jessica tell her clock in the morning and still in the dressing
