Transcript

Ladies and gentlemen, this is Jimmy Wallington speaking for the Screen Director's Playhouse. Last Thursday we presented a comedy entitled My Favorite Wife. It proved to be such a comedy of such great proportions that we ran out of time.

So we're unable to express our thanks where thanks were really due. May we do so now. To the producers of My Favorite Wife, RKO Radio Pictures, distributors of the Howard Hughes production Vendetta, the death of starring Faith Demerg and introducing George Dolan's and to Miss Irene Dunn, who soon will be seen in the 20th Century Fox production, Mudlark.

And now... Screen Director's Playhouse. Stars. Barbara Stanwick. Sambo's. This is the Screen Director's Playhouse, the Thursday night feature on NBC's All-Star Festival of Comedy, Music, Mystery and Drama.

Brought to you by Chesterfield, the only cigarette that combines mildness with no unpleasant aftertaste, the cigarette that brings you Bing Crosby and Bob Hope, RCA Victor, world leader in radio, first in recorded music, first in television, the makers of Aniston for faster relief from the pain of headache, youritis and your alga, and by your local Ford

dealer, who is now displaying the new 1951 Ford, the car that's built for the years ahead. Tonight, the Screen Director's Playhouse is pleased to present a study in dramatic conflicts.

Our play for the first time on the air is Lady Gamble's starring Barbara Stanwick and Stephen McNally. But first we invite you to hear from Bob Hope on his recent visit to Hawaii. Well here we are in the island of Oahu.

We had a very smooth trip over at first we flew to an altitude that didn't bother me. We had to go up higher because the salt water was ruining the tires. Just out of San Francisco we developed a little motor trouble in the Pajos.
