 Ladies and gentlemen, this is C.P. McGregor speaking, and welcoming you to another broadcast of Proudly We Hail, a program of your ward apartment. Through the courtesy of the Hollywood Coordinating Committee, we present Janet Blair as the star of our play titled The Bells of San Angelo, written by Richard Hall with music by Eddie Skravanik. The little Spanish-Moroccan export towns in Angelo was famous for only one thing, the bells of the mission San Angelo. It was there at the mission one beautiful summer day that Father Sebastian welcomed a very dear friend. My child, I cannot tell you how glad I am to see you. You have missed me, Father. Yes, my child. And did you receive my letter from England? I did, Marie. And now I am back in San Angelo, and I have a job. Well, that's fine. That's very good. And I have other news for you. I'm going to be married. No. Well, who is the fortunate young man? My boss. I'm marrying my boss. His name is Gerald Edwards. He's an American, and he has an export firm here in San Angelo. How nice. And how lucky for him that he can know what sunshine is. Oh, I'm the lucky one, Father. Yes, you would say that, my dear. But why haven't you brought this young man up for me to see and talk to? I'm going to do that, Father. It's the very first opportunity. He's been so, so very busy. We want to be married here in the mission. That makes me very happy indeed. You will like him, Father. I'm sure I will. Oh, dear. I didn't realize it was so late. I must be getting back to town. Oh, why, of course. Well, my child, soon you will have a husband to take care of, and then the little ones. But don't forget us here at the mission. And remember, if you are ever in need, we love you too. Thank you, Father Sebastian. Whose idea was this to ride up the coast tonight? Mine. Like it? You order the moon too? No, but I had a suspicion it would tag along. Oh, Jerry, I went up to see Father Sebastian at the mission today. He said he'd be so proud to marry us. That's fine. You happy? Perfectly. He never did tell me how you happened to pick me. That's simple. I fell in love with you. I wanted you. You don't know anything about me? I know everything about you, everything I want to know. Oh, I imagine there have been many other girls with you. Haven't there, Jerry? Yes. No, because now it doesn't matter. There will be only one, and that is me. And only two, and that is the two of us. You trust me, don't you? Of course, darling. I hope I can be everything that you think of me. You don't have to hope, my darling. You already are. But don't you think we should be turning back to town now? Yes, my sweet. There's so much work at the office, and we must get finished so that we'll have time to pick out my wedding dress. Remember, you promised? Yes, yes, and it's going to be the most beautiful wedding dress in all San Angelo. Ready to go, darling? Just a minute, honey. If we don't hurry, the shops will be all closed. Hello? Yes. Yes, will you hold on, please? Darling, there's a long distance call from Lisbon. From Lisbon? Uh-huh. Please don't talk long now, will you? No, no. I'll take it in here. Sorry, Stearns, I can't use it. Now, wait a minute. That's what you think. I'm already out, right now. Listen, Jerry, we made too many preparations to obtain this call. It's very special stuff. You did, eh? Leave Maria out of this. Right, Stearns. What's the story? When will the car arrive? Yes. It should be quite a market for that. What is it, darling? Nothing, nothing at all. Jerry, what's wrong? Nothing, I tell you. Just a dealer in Lisbon wanted confirmation on some car I'm handling for him. Oh. Well, can we go now? Go. To get my wedding dress, silly. Oh, yes, yes, let's go. Let's get out of here. I've got to think. Oh, Jerry, something has happened. What is it, Jerry? What is it? Let's briefly from our story, the Bells of St. Angelo, starring Janet Blair as Marie Evans, to bring you an important message from your ward apartment. Here is an announcement for disabled veterans. The army is now accepting for enlistment combat disabled ex-servicemen. The chief requirements are, you must be able to care unaided for your personal needs, and you must be capable of performing useful service in any one of more than 100 special jobs. Here are some of the jobs open. Radio operator, clerk, machinist, administrative assistant, mechanic, and many more. Disabled veterans who re-enlist within 20 days of discharge can have their old rating back. After only 20 years' service or up to 30 years, you may retire with a high monthly income. And the time you already have in counts toward re-enlightenment. Ask at your US Army recruiting station today. They'll be glad to tell you about a good job with present and future security. Back two of the Bells of St. Angelo, starring Janet Blair as Marie Evans. It is the following morning. Jerry has had time to think and has made his decision. He has packed most all of his belongings and looks up as Marie enters the office. Where are you going? I've got to make a little trip, darling. But you're packing up everything. Why? I may be gone for a while. I'm coming with you. You can't. You're in trouble. I'm not in trouble. That's ridiculous. You are in trouble and you should tell me so that I can help you. Now listen, sugar, did I ever lie to you? No. All right. Now I have to take a little trip and don't ask me why. You'll be back. Of course I'll be back. I'll go to the airport with you. If you'd like. Excuse me. Mr. Gerald Edwards. Yes? Don't you, prefect of police. You are under technical arrest. Oh, Jerry. Arrest? On what grounds? On the deliberate attempt to violate custom and duty tax. You're expecting a shipment of coral from Yarnsburg today is that not right? Will you tell me? You know all the answers. All right. I'll tell you. The shipment of coral is expected and it will arrive here tonight at 9.30 by Transworld Airline. Only it is not coral. It is $100,000 of uncut diamonds. Customs here at San Angelo has been notably lax in the past. You are the ship of the coral to Lisbon. Go on, go on. Your story sounds very interesting. In Lisbon, your confederate Stearns has made arrangement to accept it as coral, of course. Needless to say, we have picked up Stearns. We have additional evidence on him. You now, that is different. You have had a very good record until this. You can't arrest me. You haven't any evidence. I'm afraid you underestimate us, Mr. Edwards. We have confirmation from Yarnsburg that the shipment of coral, that is diamonds, was addressed to you. It is aboard the plane. The plane is en route here now. Well, where do we go from here? To the airport. Would you not care to come along? What can I say? Oh, Jerry, Jerry. Who is this woman? She's my secretary. I think she should come along, too. Now wait a minute. Are you stretching that technical arrest a little too far? Well, so long as she's available at all times. Oh, Jerry. Come along, Mr. Edwards. If you please. Father Sebastian. Yes, my child. What is wrong? Father Sebastian, Jerry, my Jerry. He is in trouble. Serious trouble. Come, my child. We will go pray for him. I wanted to be with you. Oh, my darling. Now, where is that sergeant? Well, don't make silly for effect. Yes, yes. The Flight 37 trans-world airline, they have encountered very serious weather. Yes, yes. But they were able to survive it. Well, idiot. When will the plane be in? Oh, the plane has been in for 10 minutes. Why wasn't I informed of it? What's going on here? Well, my child, I perfect. There was considerable commotion when the plane landed. It seems that in order to get through the weather, it was necessary to throw out the entire plane load of freight. No. Yes. The plane arrived empty. And the Minister of Health was very concerned. 30,000 diapers, badly needed, were lost. Diapers? He's worrying about diapers. Well, Mr. Gignet, what do you say now? Well, what can I say? A thousand pardons, Mr. Edmonds. Apology accepted. Come along, my sweet. Do you feel the night air? Yes. Oh, it feels good, doesn't it? Feels fresh and clean and new. It always feels that way. And look up there. The moon is out. Almost on cue. Oh, yes. Minutes ago, there was darkness. And things refused to take shape. And the course of living was so uncertain and in the shadows. And now the moon is out. We can see each other again. Only really, it is all one. Yes. Do you hear them, darling? Bells of San Angelo. My sweet. I want us to go there to the mission tomorrow. I want you to feel what I feel and soon. This is C.P. McGregor speaking. I hope you've enjoyed our proudly-we-hailed story starring Janet Blair. Before leaving you, Wendell Niles has an important message from your ward apartment. T5, John Doe, report to the orderly room.
