Thank you, Jimmy. It's a pleasure to be co-starring with Joan Callfield. This is your first appearance on Screen Directors' Playhouse, isn't it, Joan? Yes, John. And I'm particularly happy that we're going to do a comedy originally produced by my husband, Frank Ross.

And Frank and I are both happy over the fact that you're going to be the co-star. For ladies and gentlemen, with John Lund playing opposite her, no lady takes a chance. Thank you, Ms. Colfield.

And now, before we present the first act, here's a word from RCA Victor. Just up the street or around the corner from your home is a man who provides a very important service to you and your neighbors.

He's your local radio and television service man. Yet curiously enough, the importance of his services is not fully recognized until your radio or television set develops trouble. And then he's needed, just as a policeman or a doctor or a fireman is needed when the occasion arises.
