The Cat and the Fiddle

Ladies and gentlemen, the Railroad Hour. And from Hollywood, here comes the Star-Studded Show Train! Tonight, your railroads through the Association of American Railroads present the charming operator, the Cat and the Fiddle.

In our Star-Studded Cast, you will hear the host of our series, Gordon MacRae, two famous guest stars, Miss Riza Stevens and Mr. Adolph Montju, and a great cast of Hollywood-featured players. A choir is under the direction of Norman Lubav, and the entire production is set to the music of Carmen Dragon's Orchestra, and brought to you by the American Railroad, the same railroads that bring you most of the food you eat, the clothes you wear, the fuel you burn,

and the things you use in your daily life. And now, here is Gordon MacRae! Thank you and good evening ladies and gentlemen, this is Gordon MacRae helping to bring you another in our series of musical comedy successes.

Tonight, the railroad hour show train presents The Captain Fiddle, a musical love story by Jerome Kern and Otto Harbank. As our first guest tonight, we are extremely happy to present one of the most charming ladies of the Metropolitan Opera, Miss Reese's Stevens, whose lovely voice will be heard in one of the songs she is supposed to have written in her role as Shirley Sheridan, a young American composer.

Bright, move again. My role this evening is that of Victor Florescu, also a composer. But my music is of the more serious type, as you will hear when I sing.

One moment alone is all that we own, and yet in that instant rain. Also on our guest list is the popular Hollywood motion picture star, Mr. Adolf Montju. Mr. Ma's you plays a producer of musical shows who seems to prefer Shirley's music to mind when he says that man should be put away
