Transcript

Roma wines present, suspense. Roma wines made in California for enjoyment throughout the world. Salud! For your health, Senor. Roma wines toast the world. The wine for your table is Roma wine made in California for enjoyment throughout the world.

This is the man in black here to introduce this weekly half hour of suspense. Tonight from Hollywood, we again bring you Mr. Orson Welles, in the second of two consecutive performances starring Mr. Welles as the protagonist of Kutsiordmak's novel, Donovan's Brain.

The producer of suspense and its sponsors, the Roma Wine Company of Fresno, California, built this story so unusual that it merited more than our usual time. So in somewhat of a departure from established radio formulas, We are bringing you the story of Donovan's brain in two parts.

Part one you heard last Thursday, and tonight you will hear part two, the completion of Donovan's brain. But before we raise the curtain on our suspense play, let's for a moment wish ourselves a way to Havana Cuba, seated at the table in the fashionable Hotel de Nacional de Cuba.

Near us, a group of Cubans are entertaining an American visitor. Our American is just remarked that in point of great enjoyment, The Cuban Roomba is one of America's most delightful imported dances. And then, raising his wine glass, the Cuban host responds, then we have perhaps discharged some part of our debt to you Americans

for this wonderful tasting wine that gives us such great enjoyment. It is wine that Cuba imports from your faraway California. It is Roma wine. Americans didn't have to wait for wine connoisseurs of other lands to discover the greatness of California's wine districts, to superb quality of Roma California wines.
