Transcript

Transcribed. Ladies and gentlemen, the railroad hour. And here comes our star-studded show friend. Tonight, the Association of American Railroads invites you to hear the great Sigmund Romburg George Gertzwin musical success, Rosalie, starring Gordon Macrae and his charming guest Nadine Connor.

Our choir is under the direction of Norman Luboff and our music is prepared and conducted by Carmen Dreg. Yes, tonight another thrilling musical play is brought to you by the American Railroad. The same railroads that bring you most of the food you eat, the pros you wear, the fuel you burn, and all the other things you use in your daily life.

And now, here is our star, Gordon MacRae! Thank you, Marvin, another good evening, ladies and gentlemen. Tonight, Nadine Connor is the Princess Rosalie, and I am Lieutenant Dick Fade, who at this very moment is making the first non-stop supersonic jet plane flight from the United States to the Kingdom of Romansa.

It's the Princess Rosalie. Don't worry dear, she'll be here.

The American has landed already. He'll be arriving here in the middle of the square room in minutes. Calmly, calmly my dear. But what will he think if the entire royal family isn't on hand to welcome him?

I wish I could fly across the Atlantic Ocean in six hours. It would be much more fun than being a king. Who's that coming into the square? There's only one thing that can bring that many, hence, of soldiers together. Rosie!

Now, each of you may kiss my hand. So let's go to many romantic notions. Hand kissing?

That's just something she learned last year when she went to Paris. Rosie hasn't been the same since she made that trip. She's all together, too interested in men. Nonsense. How can she get romantic with all those good-looking hoods who cast, who keep her from falling in love.
