Transcript

Anne Southern, Rita Johnson, Jeffrey Lin. Oh! The Gulp Green Guild Theatre! And director of the Stars Own Theatre, Roger Pryor! Good evening, everyone. On behalf of your neighborhood, good gulp dealer and the gulp oil companies, welcome to the Gulp Green Guild Theatre.

We're glad to have you with us tonight, and when I say us, I'm speaking not only for myself, myself, but for Clark Gable and Southern Jeffrey Lin and Rita Johnson. Tonight's co-pieter Starz. They're waiting to bring you one of the greatest motion picture successes of all times.

Red Dust, adapted for radio by Charles Haswell. You know, Clark Gable and Anne Southern both give their all for MGM. And although they've never been in the same picture, they've always wanted to work together, so here they are.

You see, this is really the one place in Hollywood where the stars can do what they've always wanted to do. That's one reason why the Gulf Theater is known as the Stars Home Theater. It's the Stars Home Theater for another reason too.

The money that would ordinarily go to the stars who appear here, Gulf gives instead to the motion picture really fun. And the fun in turn helps take care of the many workers in the motion picture industry who can no longer provide for themselves.

In tonight's play, Red Dust, Clark Gable plays Dennis and Southern plays Banteen, and Geoffrey Lin and Rita Johnson are heard as Mr. and Mrs. Woolitz. I'll step into the character of Lightning. And now, Frank Stewart raises his baton to conduct Oscar Bradley's go-faucous train, the opening theme of Red Dust.

The moo-fool. The Gulf of Siam and the South China Sea lies French in Dauchina. Sea of the written banks of the river winding through the jungle from Trolanda Saigon is the rubber plantation of Dennis Carson.
