Hollywood, California, Monday, May 3rd. Well, that's Radio Theater, presents Claudette Colbert and Joel McCray, in hands across the table. Present Hollywood, our stars Claudette Colbert, Joel McCray, Walter Pigeon and Gloria Holden, our guests, Sheila Graham, Hollywood newspaper correspondent, and Earl Hayes, with unusual facts about strange jobs and pictures.
Our producer, Cecil B. DeMille, our conductor, Lewis Silvers. Looking over the footlights, I see many motion-picture celebrities in our audience too. Greetings. The makers of Lux, Tollitsock, welcome you and all the world to another hour in Hollywood.
And the Lux Radio Theatre is on the air. Mmm, who's the girl in blue? Introduce me, Tommy, she's a piece. When you hear men talk like that about a girl, you can be sure of one thing.
She's a girl with clear, smooth skin. A girl who's smart enough to keep her complexion free of those unattractive little blemishes, doneness in a large pore that mean cosmetic skin. She's probably a girl who's taken a tip from Hollywood, removed cosmetic thoroughly with lux toilet soap.
For the active lather of this pure complexion soap, removed from the pores, every hidden face of dust, dirt, stale rouge and powder. No dangerous pore choking. No gradual loss of beauty. It's foolish and needless to risk cosmetic skin, luxe toilets or guards against it.
And now our producer, ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Cecil B. DeMille. Greetings from Hollywood, ladies and gentlemen. Tonight's event with its glittering stage, its scientific wizardry that carries our voices to all corners of the earth, and its audience of millions, is a thing that I couldn't have predicted when I first knew Claudette Colbert and Joe McCray.
