 Lux presents Hollywood the Lux Radio Theatre brings you Ginger Rogers in Kitty Foil with Dennis Morgan and James Craig ladies and gentlemen your producer Mr. Cecil B. DeMille greetings from Hollywood ladies and gentlemen the last time Ginger Rogers starred in the Lux Radio Theatre she went directly from this stage to the preview of her picture Kitty Foil we all wished her good luck but by that time luck had nothing to do with the case simple justice gave her the applause of critics and public and finally the motion picture Academy Award for the finest performance by any screen actress during the year and tonight as Ginger Rogers plays her greatest role for the first time on the air she has the same two leading men you saw in the picture Dennis Morgan and James Craig Christopher Morley called his novel the natural history of a woman and the archaeo picture was exactly that few stories can take an audience so close to the inner secrets of a woman's heart and certainly no woman ever had a more sympathetic portrayal than Ginger Rogers gives Kitty Foil an Academy Award is a recognition of the highest in quality and we've tried to make every detail of our production match that of course to start with we had Lux Flakes no question about quality there and I believe the whole company has outdone itself to make this an unforgettable premiere here in the Lux Radio Theatre tonight you've inspired that effort by your genuine interest in every activity of this theater and your loyalty to our product has told us better than anything else how sincere that interest really is the reward we offer is the best plays and stars that we can find and as far as Lux Flakes is concerned as fine a product as modern science can devise and now for the finest that Hollywood can devise we raise the curtain on the first act of Kitty Foil starring Ginger Rogers as Kitty Foil Dennis Morgan as win and James Craig as Mark Female independence means anything to you girls after all what's the difference between men bachelors and girl bachelors men bachelors of that way on purpose that was Kitty Foil speaking Kitty is young and pretty but very wise

through the door to join the scurrying crowds on Fifth Avenue kitty trim and inviting stands near the curb a cold collar turned up high against the driving snow a taxi pulls up quickly and a young man

please you're no longer a little girl I'm only 24 you're 26 don't try to kid me well I'm not old anyway and I know what I'm doing it's a very unsatisfactory role you're preparing to play even under the best of circumstances we'll just have to face it correction you'll have to face it married people face things together but you won't be married did you ever think of it marriage isn't everything what is it anyway it's just a piece of paper like any other legal document a lot of pretty fine things come out of that piece of paper kitty be a lot happier with Mark and that little piece of paper than you ever could be with and a snuggled apartment with a key for him you know what I think I think you're wrong the same words before way back when you lived in a little house on Griskin Street in Philadelphia that's where pop brought you up and what a grand guy he was it was the night of the Philadelphia assembly you were about 15 then a gawky long-legged kid you came home late trying to sneak past the parlor and up the stairs without pop seeing you but he saw you all right kitty kitty come in here hello pop I was just I was just I know what you were just doing the assembly tonight and you were downtown gazing at those rich main liners parade into the Bellevue Stratford and getting silly ideas I was important really I was watching you've got to get this trash out of your head get your mind over that Tommy Rotten the society page but it's not Tommy Rot pop I'm more Tommy Rotten the lady of Shalott who she you know and sometimes through the mirror blue the nights came riding two by two she has no loyal night and true the lady of Shalott Judas Priest if you're not reading about those mainline monkeys you've got your head stuck in a Cinderella book well the lady of Shalott wasn't exactly Cinderella but it was the same idea it must be wonderful why well you know after you've been sitting in ashes all of your life and then all of a sudden a prince comes along Judas Priest if ever a man deserved to be hung since the fellow who started that Cinderella stuff putting crazy ideas into girls heads why they're the ruination of more girls than 40 actors I don't see where there's so much ruination about it Cinderella and the Prince lived happily ever after those do yes and that's where those writing fellas are smart too they always end the story before it really begins and that's the reason I'm going to get all this junk about the mainline in the Philadelphia assembly out of your head so that you won't make a fool out of yourself later on you know what I think pop I think you're wrong and skirts got six inches longer and they stopped playing sunny boy and took up who's afraid of the big bad wolf and then boom came the depression and you had to trade in a few of those dreams for a volume of Greg shorthand remember you finally got a diploma from the VZ School of Business but you were still one of the vast army of unemployed until 1932 October 23rd that's when you went to work for win Stratford when would Stratford the 6th a true Prince of the mainline instead of a white horse he had $10,000 his family had given him to start a magazine poor win he did so much want to do something on his own you've been there about too long miss foil this isn't quite right what's the matter this letter you type for me it's wrong the use of a squire in business is a New York affectation and very bad taste but I've seen letters come to you address Mr. Winwood Stratford Esk from New York is perhaps it's still wrong well then I've certainly seen them just plain Esk say how does the person get to be an Esquire anyway well I don't know he just is pop says you get to be an Esquire if you can sit on one animal and chase another did I sound stuffy I'm sorry pardon okay get stuffy yourself I've said I'm sorry did you get my column off the dictaphone yes and it's it what nothing go ahead what about it don't be afraid I was just thinking about the way your voice sounds on the dictaphone you know it sounds like no who Ronald Coleman huh really and can I play the record over and over again it's lovely that's funny yes so different from what it is actually hmm Ronald Coleman a you really think it's true miss foil that my voice sounds rather like that of mr. Coleman Shangri-La miss foil foil foil and furthermore it might be wise if oh oh come in miss foil I was just trying a little dictation on the machine I'd just like to say I'm sorry I was fresh before I didn't notice it well I was and I'm sorry oh it's quite all right oh you want to run that record off now oh no thanks I was just figuring out work well I'll show you it's really it's not at all necessary really don't you think you'd better pop out to lunch they take 10 seconds besides what am I here really miss foil there's no need to there and you turn it on here and then you really think it's true miss foil that my voice sounds rather like that of mr. Coleman Shangri-La miss foil foil foil foil in oil roses are red violets are blue miss foil has nice legs I love you is that all and I'll thank you miss foil not to look so beautiful during conferences we have difficulty enough getting this magazine out without disturbing the personnel particularly myself I think I will go out to lunch after all now wait a minute please let me explain when when boiling Jen I'm terribly sorry really I never intended I I mean I was simply testing you know like on the radio will you please let me out miss foil wait I I want to give you some dictation before you go sit down please well let's see in her office memo to miss foil I'm I'm sorry I said you're too beautiful you are I'm sorry I said you disturb me but you do I'm sorry you seem to think I'm making love to you but I am when we're still learning those little things about each other that make two ordinarily normal people a little daffy when they're together like the first time you went to New York remember he took you to Jono's they had to have a car to get in in those days they had a radio running full glass to get the election returns mr. strapper I have this a water bottle I shall be just for you thanks Jono straga straga what's straga it's Italian brandy they say that if two people drink it together they'll never drink it apart how cozy why so solemn kitty oh I was just wondering what about why did you bring me to New York I thought you'd like it why because well you see when I was going to school in Manitou Illinois it was a very small town and everybody else knew everybody else's business so when a man wanted to take somebody out and he didn't care very much about being seen with it he always took her up to Chicago I see but that's not it I I wanted to make a good impression on you so I brought you where I thought I most likely could do it I'm sorry kitty I've got an idea will you go at the assembly with me this year are you kidding I mean it kitty this isn't just a gesture I I want you to come please have you ever had a dream come to life right in front of your very eyes no but I haven't given up hope is a date I'm crazy I know but it's a date kitty lean close to me I've got to kiss you national headquarters have just conceded that the next president of the United States will be Franklin Delano Roosevelt celebrating about Hoover didn't win I'm celebrating our first kiss you're crazy come on we're getting out of here what's the idea Roosevelt's horning in on my celebration we're going to Lake Pocono to see the sunset but we're too late it's already said okay we see the moonrise come on where we are we're in the Pocono mountains situated in the state of Pennsylvania sitting in front of a fireplace talking about no but where are we really in heaven no in love tell me about love first there was a man and just as soon as he had time to learn his way about there was a woman was the woman beautiful very she had red hair and her nose went like so and her eyes they was blue-green as the sea itself look quite well her voice didn't sound so much like music and her eyes didn't trap the starlight one half as cleverly and she wasn't nearly so beautiful and what did the man and the woman do well at first they just hung around they didn't take any notice of each other at all oh maybe a grunt now man but certainly nothing then one night a strange thing happened what the man and woman were sitting in front of a fire the firelight played upon the woman's face and the man for the first time saw how beautiful she was looking into her eyes he suddenly beheld all the wonders of life so immediately he made love to her well first he bent down over her rubbed her nose with his like this didn't the woman object no she loved him too well because he was everything that she had ever dreamed of maybe let me see where was I you were just about to kiss me didn't say in bed dr.

flop well don't say that darling because it's not true well sit down and tell me about it there's not much to tell I got the idea for this rag because well I I didn't like following the family in a

I got to die well we could go out and spend that you've taken an awful beating haven't you you ought to know well I I don't know how to tell you this but all of this has been kind of a test you mean you were testing me now don't make it sound so awful it's just that the girl I fall for mustn't be a gold digger I simply haven't got the dough for it so I've always told myself I'd never fall for one unless I could get to liking her without spending any money that's just for the first evening understand well how did I come out well you're okay I'd like to point out that anything I did to prove that to you was purely unintentional I know that but how about going to the movies Friday night sorry I can't afford it forget that I'll pay call all Johnny a and a bus both ways well I never thought

orchestra that guy over there has rented the joint of 5 a.m. that's when some dance in Philadelphia and to think that only 24 hours ago it started out just like any other old day in the year kitty yes when kitty I I brought something for you it's just no ring but I'd like you to have it pretty what is it an air loo was my great grandmother's see that design it's a symbol of eternal life from her to me and you those that come after us forever it's our family well you better put it away than if it's family stuff boys can you play tales from the Vienna Woods yeah but feebly I don't know why I should eat all this background but kitty will you marry me I'll win will you know dear don't you love me yes but you won't marry me but why not when darling we're happy now aren't we I mean here this minute of course we are you know why because we love each other because we're together you know that's not it it's because we're not in Philadelphia no look honey this is no time for bum jokes New York we're happy at polka dough we're happy in Seattle and New Orleans and Dallas Texas we could be happy but not in Philadelphia in Philadelphia you're Dobby Mill and I'm Rizkem Street we're two addresses 23 miles and 500 light years apart and is that all with the same color that's what you mean all right then it's all fixed we'll be New Yorkers from now on both of us are you kidding me no darling I mean it this is where we live well we'll be happy I'm happy already I'm so happy I can't tell you how much kiss me when I hope the alarm doesn't ring just a little while longer I do want life to be beautiful just as it is now what's strafford the 6th those two days were just about to Philadelphia to tell winds family after you Mrs. Strafford good evening mr. strafford are you hersen where's mother you'll find the whole family having tea in the drawing room sir come on kitty don't let old Uncle Kenneth scare you he's an old Quaker banker only knows three words the thou know go ahead hello everybody come in you remember kitty mother indeed I do it's so nice to see you again miss foil thank you you remember my grandmother and Jessica Uncle Edgar and of the can it happy to see you again miss foil the fact is the name isn't foil anymore it's it's strafford kitty and I've been married married well why don't you say something well you'll have to forgive me but I just wasn't prepared for such news when were you married dear last Saturday but I thought you were going to send her to school first mother my dear win has already told us how much he loves you and we couldn't have been happier for his sake but I thought he was going to wait for a year yes mother you understand of course that about everything else we want you and win to be happy that's first and foremost in all our thoughts I don't want to seem rude but would somebody mind telling me what you all are driving it well it's only this might I'll tell you see honey I promise that I wouldn't marry you for a year mother was going to take you under her wing and prepare you prepare me for what oh you know some school some some good finishing school school you're kidding me oh it needn't be a school and it can still be done later on we can have a proper wedding and what do you call what we've just done a rehearsal now wait a minute kitty doesn't she want to go to school school is out definitely I'm a big girl now win and I are not going to live in Philadelphia I'm griskin street and he's mainline and we both know it in Philadelphia that's fatal anywhere else in the world it doesn't make a nickel's worth a difference and so that's where we're going to live and anywhere else in the world that's right isn't we of course it is dear but it seems to me we could this is all very provoking but Miss Foyle now must realize that such a thing is impossible why it happens that the strafford money is a trust fund established by family wills they provide that win when he takes on to himself a wife shall reside in Derby mill and assume his duties as an officer of the family bank now those terms are irrevocable and if when refuses in that case his inheritance would pass into the family trust so what so when isn't rich anymore so what is that to me I didn't marry him for his money I don't care if he hasn't got a penny but miss Foyle there are not being quite reasonable about this says the miss Foyle thy temper mr. Kenneth by foot let's get a few things straight around here I didn't ask to marry a strafford a strafford asked to marry me I married a man not an institution or a trust fund or bank oh I've got a fine picture of your family conference here all the straffords trying to figure out how to take the curse off kitty Foyle by the girl of phony education and polish off the rough edges and make a mainline doll out of her oh you ought to know better than that it takes six generations to make a bunch of people like you and by Judas Priest I haven't got that much time after a brief intermission mr. DeMille will present act three of kitty Foyle starring ginger Rogers Dennis Morgan and James Craig now here's Libby Collins our fashion reporter with a story about a new kind of fashion show say Libby that's a very good-looking suit you're wearing thanks mr.

Ruick that he couldn't write a last line for a limerick here it is when Sue got a run in her stocking Betty explained it is shocking the way that you rub your hose in a tub no stocking can take such hard knocking pretty good rhyme and at the same time oh advice that no girl should be mocking she's wise if she ducks with fast gentle lucks continual runs in her stocking well seriously that is just what stocking experts themselves the makers of lovely silk and nylon hosiery recommend Lux Flakes listen to the significant fact over 90% specifically 721 out of the 783 makers of stockings in the United States recommend Lux and women's own experience backs them up because new quick Lux Flakes have become America's favorite care for stockings the country over why first they're so gentle they save the elasticity that makes stockings fit and wear second they're faster you get suds in a flash and that saves your time third new quick Lux is thrifty a little goes so far gives such suds even in hard water new quick Lux comes in the same familiar package costs you know more and what good service it will help you get from lovely stockings now here's mr. DeMille and our stars radio alas has not yet established its equivalent of an Academy Award if it had we'd presented right now to Ginger Rogers as she returns to the microphone with Dennis Morgan and James Craig thank you mr. DeMille but I think any medals that are knocking around to be pinned on Miss Kitty foil herself what would you suggest looking for a ginger well any large office building in any American city would do it Dennis well that's a pretty big order ginger well I think you'd find several million girls like Kitty foil Jim they have their own brand of courage and don't ask favors from anybody from our mail I should judge that a high percentage of them are regular members of this audience and that they've all been asking for Kitty foil ginger you've played just about every kind of part and actors can play on the screen from dancing to drama what's it going to be next well it's a comedy called Tom Dick and Harry can't you get Dennis Jim and Cecil in that mr.
