Transcript

Luck presents Hollywood. Leave your brother's company, the makers of Luck, Coiler Soap, bring you the Luck Radio Theater. Starring Edwin, Kathy Beaumont, Jerry Colona, and turning hallway in Alice in Wonderland. Ladies and gentlemen, your producer Mr. William Keel.

Christmas greetings from Hollywood, ladies and gentlemen. Now that all the presents are wrapped, the Christmas tree decorated, the stuffing made for the turkey, and you're all worn out, why don't you draw up a chair and let us tell both you and the children a story?

And as our stars from the original cast, we have Kathy Beaumont playing Alice, Edwin as the Mad Hatter, Jerry Colona as the March Hare, and Sterling Holloway of course is the Cheshire Cat.

Do you understand? Oh, and furthermore, in my world you wouldn't say me out. You'd say, yes, look at it. Oh, diamonds would be just like people, and all the other animals too. I am my world.

Good re-died in, and two little houses, and be dressed in with a crescent proudly, when I'm known everyone.
