Transcript

Luck present Hollywood. Leave your brother's company, the makers of Luck's toilet soap, bring you the Luck Radio Theatre. During marginal time, Lionel Barrymore, Lewis Stone, and Edward Arnold, in Three Wise Food. Ladies and gentlemen, your producer, Mr. William Kealy.

He came from Hollywood, ladies and gentlemen. If when you're sitting at home some quiet night alone, You suddenly hear a sound like this. Have you ever wondered what makes that gate unwind? Could it possibly be those little people?

The leopards and the fairies and we never see. Oh, you don't believe in me. Well then, let's see what happens to three skeptics like yourselves. The Metro Golden mare three-wise fools. Based on the play by Austin Strong, originally introduced by John Doe.

We are fortunate in having all four stars of the original fine cast, Margaret O'Brien, Lionel D'Arremore, Lewis Stone, and Edward Honors. Margaret appears as a good liar, as well, who moves into the home and heart as three hard-hearted disbelievers, disbelieving that is in those same little people who are known to inhabit the broads of islands.

And speaking of Ireland, we have a letter forwarded by a useful member of the Red Cross. It's from a pupil in his school near Dublin, and says in part, words cannot express how grateful we were for the work and presence that he said.

Here's Act 1 of 3YC, starring Margaret of Ryan as Pila O'Manahan, Lionel D'Aremore as Richard Gaunt, Lewis Stone as James Sumbault, and Edward Arnold as Theodore Fincher. Many years ago, three young students, a doctor, a banker, a lawyer, each was desperately enamored up a beautiful, Nina Fairchild.
