Transcript

How you babe? Say how about... Oh! Does that answer your question buddy? The Adventures of Maisie, Starring and Southern! You all remember Vetric Old Windmares famous Maisie pictures? In just a moment you will hear Maisie and Radio, Starring the same glamorous star you all went to see and ploved on the screen and Southern.

But first, you're an answer. And Southern as Maisie! Yeah, fine, maybe like the man said, maybe we're very ruthless.

I'm in show business, a very fascinating business to be in because you meet so many interesting people who are also out of work. You know, I'm always finding myself out of work in the darndest places, Africa, India, Tasmania, Pasadena, but I always seem to find an old friend on a faraway.

For instance, I was in a circus hanging by my teeth from a rope and making like a butterfly. It was no job for anybody with much bridge work, but I didn't mind it. Until the treasure of the circus ran away with the butterfly next to me and left it all stranded.

I hit track to the next town and was about to look up a girlfriend who'd marry the guy there when a cop stopped me. Ordinarily, I love cops. They work hard, they don't get paid much, everybody sort of shies away from them and inside of this they're pretty nice guys.

But this was a tough cop. Just a minute, bessus, then. Oh, hello, I'm there. What's your name, QD Face? Well, I'm glad to tell you so you won't call me QD Face again. I made you there. What's your name?

Say, I don't believe I know you, do I? QD Face? No, and you're not going to get a chance to leave there. Well, now you're sort of fresh, ain't you? Just fresh enough to keep the flies off me.
