Transcript

Hollywood, California, Monday, May 17th. The Lux Radio Theater presents Betty Davis and Fred McMurray in another language with John Beale and Mae Robeson. Lux presents Hollywood.

This program comes to you through the makers of Lux Lakes as a means of showing their appreciation of your pronounced preference for these remarkable soap lakes. Our stars tonight are Betty Davis, Fred McMurray, John Beale, May Robles, Margaret Hamilton, and Hal K. Dawson.

Our guests, Mrs. James Rosebell, mother of our president, and Ms. Janet Henley, one of Hollywood's foremost wardrobe authorities. Our producers, Cecil B. DeMille, our conductor, Lewis Silvers, all of whom join me in saying welcome to the Lux Radio Theater.

One of our

bylaws reads as follows. Any member getting a run and her stocking during the course of any meeting must pay a fine of ten cents. Our treasury hasn't been increased by a single dime so far, because all the girls are lux-wise.

And as a matter of fact, we very seldom get runs at all anymore. They know that lux-cut-down runs because it saves the elasticity. The letter continues. We thank you for the splendid entertainment of the Lux Radio Theatre, and we wish you continued success.

And we thank you, Miss Brock, for your letter. We hope all of your club members are listening in tonight to hear Betty Davis, Fred McMurray and John Beale in another language. And now, our producer, ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Cecil V. DeMille.
