 Lux presents Hollywood the Lux Radio Theatre brings you William Powell and heavy Lamar in Love Crazy. Ladies and gentlemen your producer Mr. Cecil B. DeMille. Greetings from Hollywood ladies and gentlemen. I know very little about astrology but I'm sure anyone could draw an accurate horoscope promising success and popularity for the Lux Radio Theatre tonight. One quick look at the stars would be enough because those stars are two of the brightest in the Hollywood sky William Powell and Hedy Lamar. We borrowed them from the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer constellation where they shone together recently in Crossroads and where Hedy Lamar has just finished the much talked about white cargo. We went to the same studio for our play the gay comedy Love Crazy. You'll remember it as one of Bill Powell's most versatile performances. Tonight you'll hear Bill and Hedy Lamar as husband and wife starting out to celebrate their wedding anniversary but naturally not expecting a domineering aunt an ex-sweetheart and a lunacy commission to horn in on the celebration. In a world where people have adventures like that I suppose very few are guided by the Greek philosophers but you you'll find some highly modern ideas among them. There's Aristotle for instance who had never heard of Lux toilet soap because it hadn't been invented but stoutly maintained that personal beauty is a better introduction than any letter. He might have been thinking of a motion picture star or any one of millions of lovely American girls who know all about Lux soap. They all share the same secret and the little magician that helps them is known to most of you I believe in three little words Lux toilet soap. Three other words curtain going up bring on the first act of Love Crazy starring Hedy Lamar as Susan and William Powell as Steve. What's the matter. I don't know he's got his head caught in the elevator door. Mr. Steve Ireland apartment ten a head court in the elevator door this evening at seven o'clock Mr. Ireland with the happiest man on earth all ready to go out and celebrate his fourth wedding anniversary now just ten minutes later he has his head caught in the elevator door such his life. Let's go back a little see how it all came about. It's seven o'clock and Mr. Steve Ireland has just entered his apartment. Is that you see. Oh hello darling. Happy anniversary darling. Happy anniversary. Oh what's that thing. That's my love is a portable phone grab. Oh darling I've always wanted a portable. Yeah it's the best I could rent for thirty five cents a day. Pretty cheap considering it has my initials on it. Oh darling I've got some great news for you. What I decided to keep you another year. Maybe you haven't seen the new models they haven't got breaks like me. What breaks have you got. Will you do something constructive. What will you get my walking shoes. You're walking. Yes you don't expect me to walk four miles in dancing shoes do you. Well. Look darling. You think we want to go through that liggable in tonight. Oh darling we swore that every year we do exactly what we did when we were married. Yes I know. Oh I love that walk to the justice of the team. Four miles. Look darling I've got an idea. Why don't we do everything we did only in reverse. In reverse. Yeah backwards. But that would mean that we'd have to take our four man walk at midnight and backwards at that. That's right everything backwards. Oh but that sounds very silly. Wait a minute let me show you. Going in reverse it is now 1 a.m. Now let's see what is the first thing I did. Oh I turned out the lights. There we are. Wait you forgot to wind the clock. Oh yes yes I set the alarm for 12 o'clock you were going to lunch with your aunt Bethany. The next thing you did was to crack your ankle on that chair. But if you don't mind I'll just skip that part of the routine. Well there's an exit. You know you shouldn't be allowed to stand at the moonlight like that. It ought to be against the law like a strong drug. I don't remember you saying that before. I should have. I'm here darling. Steve the door. Oh for the love. You better answer it. All right. But whoever it is they shall not. Happy anniversary. Four years ago today. Isn't it wonderful. You look funny. Are you all right. Oh yes fine fine. It's coming out better. Hello. You are happy anniversary darling. Thank you. Put on the lights. Now I can't stay long darling. I just wanted to congratulate you after all you've been just like a daughter to me Susan. And you're just like a mother in law to me I'm better. Darling. Now just wait until you see what I've brought you a rug for the boy. Is it just too much. It's lovely. Isn't it gorgeous. What do you have to find such a beautiful shade of purple. Put it down. Don't you wonder how you ever managed without it. It's lovely. But I thought you knew that we had to take up the rug you gave us last year because the floor is just too highly polished. Everybody slipped on it. I remember very well but the dimensions of this rug are absolutely perfect. Oh Susan dear I wonder if I could have just a little bite to eat. I'm sorry. But I'm not going back to anything. Don't pay any attention to me at all. You go right ahead as if I weren't here. Go ahead and watch Steve. I must keep an eye on the time. Your aunt Laura is coming into California at eight o'clock eight o'clock. Well you've got to run along if you're planning to meet her. Yes you wouldn't want to be late. It's all right children. There's no hurry. Oh I completely forgot something. Nothing you have to dash out and attend to I hope. Steve you can go out and mail this letter for me. It's my insurance premium. It must be sent tonight. Steve dear I hate to trouble you. Oh no trouble at all. What else would I have to do. I'll be right back to you. Look at him. Oh thanks for the rug aunt I see.

It weren't you money to get a month after you killed me. But with me it was different. You see I have to do something to mend my broken heart. You're broken heart. You were glad to get rid of me. Anyway that's what I told people. Oh Steve you're looking elegant. Really. I wasn't even trying. What are you doing here. I just moved in. You live here. Yeah 10 a. I'm 11. Well we're neighbors. Remember that if you ever want to borrow a cup of sugar sugar. Is this a ground floor. Well no Mrs. Gracious isn't as a matter of fact we're in between for us the powers off. You mean we're stuck. Looks like it. I can think of a lot better places to park. What are you going to do. Well we'll have to go up to the top of the elevator. You mean that that little hole up there. Yes sir. That's the emergency door. Then I can stand on the top of the elevator and open the door on the fourth floor. Give me a boost will you Mr. Island. Oh yes sure. Okay. One second Mr. Island. Okay. Now just wait till I get the door open. Well I guess you're next Isabelle. How is your acrobatic work. I haven't changed much. Now. I just put your foot on my knee and then then on my shoulder.

Isabel Kimball that is Isabel Grayson she is now. Well she was in the elevator and broke down so I went into her place for a minute to pull myself together. I guess that's why I left my hat.

Just a minute. Sorry to bother you sir but Mrs. Grayson would like her shoes please. Her shoes. Oh yeah here I've got them in my pocket. Thank you sir. Well oh that's all right I'm busy.

Let's have something to drink. Pardon me what do you have. I don't suppose you're careful. Why not. A little on the base would help wonderfully. Very funny. Tell me dear how did you ever happen to think of this. When I. When I thought about my husband being out with another woman I decided to teach him a lesson.

This gentleman is a friend of mine. This is my husband Steve Ireland. I'm Ward Willoughby. How do you do. How do you do. What do I mean how do you do. What are you doing with my wife dressed like that. I'm not dressed like that. Look I was in my apartment minding my own business. Oh don't bother to explain.

Well I've been waiting for you for the last 20 minutes. Another one. What are you doing there canvassing the building. Mrs. Ireland you phone me down stairs. Oh he's found you I see. Yes I found him. So I went to your apartment to tell you. You went in your apartment when I called. No I was at the desk. Well I think I know who was in your apartment. Say what do you mean. You know what he means. Look look I know what. Let's all room together all through school. Are you asleep dear. No. Oh I thought you were asleep. Tonight dear. Yeah. Am I what you call a jealous type. Jealous you. Not a bit. Then why do I want to chop your head off. I don't know if you think I look better without it. Maybe I'd like to keep it from telling me what happened tonight. Now honey it's not that bad look you wouldn't mind hearing about it at all. Oh don't tell me not that it's a lie. I couldn't forgive you that funny part all that happened was that is a bell phone. Then I called a cab and slipped downstairs to meet us. We went out for a drink and then came home. You know the rest. You you call the cab. Yeah. And you took her off. Yeah. You weren't in her apartment. No. All right. Don't say any more. I believe you. Of course. Now that's my girl. Oh Steve I know that whatever else happened you wouldn't lie to me. Well not on an anniversary. Steve there are only five minutes of anniversary left. Don't you worry honey face we're going to have a million anniversaries. Honey. Yes darling.

I'm leaving on a honey dear wait. Get out of my way. Now listen. Let me get great. Will you please get your head out of that door. No. You're going to believe me or a taxi driver. A taxi driver. Oh my head. In just a few minutes Mr. DeMille and our stars William Powell and Eddie Lamar will return in act two of Love Crazy. And now here's our Hollywood reporter Libby Collins. Well Libby keeping up with the stars as usual. Well this time I was just ahead of one. The other afternoon I was at Union Station in Los Angeles to meet a friend. Quite a little crowd of us were coming to the gate. I turned around all of a sudden and looked right into a pair of gorgeous blue eyes. And who should they belong to but Paulette Goddard. Libby I've been in and out of that station dozens of times but I never had luck like that. He certainly did look stunning. Well the ladies in our audience might like to know what Paulette was wearing Libby. Did you notice. Don't think I didn't. A simple dress with a short fur jacket and a perfectly enchanting little hat. Dark brown with tiny copper sequins sewn all over the veil. You know it must have been fun for Miss Goddard to wear that hat. I bet when she took a look in her mirror and saw how that sparkly veil set off a million dollar complexion. Well Libby she must have felt the way lots of pretty ladies do when they look in their mirrors and see a smooth lovely complexion. Might he pleased with himself. And think how many of them including Miss Goddard must be pleased with her luck soap complexion care. You know Paulette Goddard says she doesn't let a day go by without taking an active lather facial with luck toilet soap. She just moves the creamy rich luck soap lather lightly and then she rinses with warm water and follows with a dash of cool. He taps her face dry with a soft towel. It's a simple care but it really works. Yes Libby famous screen stars lovely women everywhere have proved that. Lux toilet soap you see has active lather that swiftly removes stale cosmetics every trace of dust and dirt. It's such rich abundant lather too. Screen stars say it feels like smoothing beauty in to use gentle luck toilet soap. Yet this luxurious soap costs but a few pennies a cake. Just try active lather facials with gentle white luck toilet soap for 30 days. Then look in your mirror and see. We pause now for station identification. This is the Columbia Broadcasting System act to love crazy starring Eddie Lamar as Susan and William Powell as Steve. Susan Ireland the irate wife has run the usual irate wife's gamut of emotion from suspicion to certainty from tears to angry determination from her husband's bed and board to a divorce lawyer's office that where Steve finally catches up with her. So what are you doing here. I'm arranging with George to get a divorce but George is my lawyer but George if you help Susan to force me you lose my business and my business as a matter of fact Steve I was just about to tell Susan I think she's being a little hasty. Well then what are you waiting for go ahead and tell her Susan I think you're being a little hasty. Hey then you think I want you to file a paper and get going on things today today isn't that a little soon unless you happen to think it's four years too late. Well I don't know quite what to say say but it's everything in the world to say say that a divorce is something that you'll never stop regretting tell her that that marriage is too important a thing to be broken up by a tri-thousand marriage is too important a thing to be broken up. Where am I trying to lawyer with the mind of his own. Well you might find Mulvaney Mulvaney in the West. The West is very clever. Thank you. Oh Susan please don't go I've got to talk to you. I'm sorry Steve but I'll never again believe a word you say. The Ireland talking. What are you doing. What have I been doing for the last eight weeks worrying. Look George do you think she's really going to show up in court tomorrow morning. Well you got back in town today. The Bristol party at the Bristol or hurry up. I mean hang up I'll be right over Steve over here. What is she George what is she out on the terrace. Go ahead. OK. Susan could I could I speak to you for a minute. I don't know. Isn't it unlucky for the groom to see the bride the night before the divorce for two months I've been planning what I say to you and now all I can think of is I feel awful. Do you think I rather hope you would tell me exactly how you feel. Well I can't sleep and when I try to eat I can't because I've got a great big cold cannonball right here in the pit of my stomach. What's good about it. Oh Susan why do you want me to be this miserable because I don't want to be the only one. Susan was only natural. I expected to feel badly for a while but not that badly honey that's love. Let's go home. There's no such word. There's no such thing as marriage based on the seat. Steve I beg you not to lie to me but I didn't lie to you. You'd only be honest and admit that you lied. There's nothing I wouldn't forgive you. All right darling if that's the way you feel about it I'll confess I lied I was guilty. You mean you were in Isabelle's apartment. Yes that's right. You be. But I've admitted it you said you'd forgive me I suppose it's perfectly all right because you've admitted it but honey cake I only said I was guilty because I don't care what I said I'll hate you for that for the rest of my life. Oh what's the problem anything wrong to you again but for an hour I didn't recognize you just close on take me out of the game in the nose. Yeah you and who else yeah I think anything happened. He's gone home with little beaver he's been in Arizona with Susan and her aunt Betsy for two months he's doing all right again George you've got to have this divorce case postponed no can do Steve but Susan still loves me she told me call her for a 20 and offer him a bribe anything oh no can do will you please stop saying that you're driving me crazy but look Steve say that would do it well if you if you went crazy Susan couldn't divorce you for five years at least you couldn't why even if you suggested symptoms of insanity why it would require the postponement of 30 days before they could find out if you were crazy or not George I love you look George look.
