Fascination

Kathy and Elliot Lewis on stage. Kathy Lewis, Elliot Lewis, two of the most distinguished names in radio. Appearing each week in their own theatre, starring in a repertory of transgruck stories of their own and your choosing.

Radio's foremost players in radio's foremost place. Ladies and gentlemen, Elliot Lewis. Good evening. May I present my wife, Kathy? Good evening. Fascination is defined as being a spell, and yet if you were to cast a spell over someone, it could be defined, but it would be very difficult to explain how you did it.

A word can be defined, but it's next to impossible to explain motives. The author's job is to make it clear to an audience why people behave as they do. A common example, the mystery play, where you're asked to accept the villain's reasons for committing a murder.

example, the author's relatively easy problem in dramatizing a mother's love for her child. A medium example, as stated here some months ago, the reasons why a man must climb a mountain. Tonight's problem, why a woman loves a man. Which brings us back to the word fascination.

It's the title of tonight's play. It was written by Richard Chandley, and in it he will dramatically discuss a good woman and a bad man and what happened to them. Since Dick has chosen to set his story in the Old West, we begin with Fred Steiner, who has written an overture, especially to set a mood of time and place.

But Charlie, be reasonable. I'm reasonable. 85 dollars is cheap for that horse. I can buy just the same animal for 60 anywhere in tow.

Then you go do it, Mr. Hack. Now look, Charlie, you know and I know... Excuse me, would you let me pass it, please? Oh, excuse us, ma'am. We... If it ain't Miss Anne Grace, look who we got here, Charlie.
