  Speaker 1: and author June Cameron, two travelers bound from a Massachusetts
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: resort for New York. Their journey takes an unexpected public
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: turn when a just married sign on their car brings
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: reporters and front page gossip requiring them to sustain a
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: marriage neither planned. From Lux Radio Theater, this is The
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: Doctor Takes a Wife, episode 329, broadcast by CBS on

  Speaker 2: The Lux Radio Theater. THE END.
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: THE END.
• 2:07
  Speaker 4: Throughout America tonight, this inspired music lifts every heart to
• 2:12
  Speaker 4: new patriotism as all of us join all of you
• 2:16
  Speaker 4: in pledging full allegiance to our country. We've asked the
• 2:21
  Speaker 4: Columbia Broadcasting System to interrupt our program tonight with any
• 2:25
  Speaker 4: important news developments. We here in the Lux Radio Theater,
• 2:29
  Speaker 4: as well as you who are listening, want to keep
• 2:32
  Speaker 4: in touch with any and all events bearing upon this
• 2:35
  Speaker 4: national emergency. In the meantime, this theater carries on as usual, which,
• 2:40
  Speaker 4: as you know, is one of the oldest and finest traditions.
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: Of the theater.
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: Tonight, the Lux Radio Theater... brings you Melvin Douglas and
• 2:50
  Speaker 4: Virginia Bruce in The Doctor Takes a Wife. A motley
• 2:54
  Speaker 4: parade of characters from all walks of life constantly pass
• 2:57
  Speaker 4: in review on the American screen. Rich man, poor man,
• 3:01
  Speaker 4: beggar man, thief, and every other kind of people that
• 3:03
  Speaker 4: it takes to make a world. But judging from box
• 3:06
  Speaker 4: office records, perhaps the most romantic of the whole lot,
• 3:09
  Speaker 4: for some reason that I'll leave to you, is The Doctor.
• 3:14
  Speaker 4: He seems to exert even more fascination over the American
• 3:17
  Speaker 4: people than the cowboy and the aviator. And perhaps Columbia
• 3:21
  Speaker 4: Picture had this in mind when they filmed The Doctor
• 3:25
  Speaker 4: Takes a Wife. It's the story of a doctor who
• 3:27
  Speaker 4: suddenly finds himself married to an author, a beautiful young
• 3:30
  Speaker 4: lady author, who has just made a fortune out of
• 3:33
  Speaker 4: a book telling other young ladies the advantages of not
• 3:37
  Speaker 4: getting married at all. And that's such an embarrassing set
• 3:40
  Speaker 4: of circumstances that it makes a perfect beginning for a comedy.
• 3:44
  Speaker 4: This play will put you in the proper frame of
• 3:46
  Speaker 4: mind to do your Christmas shopping So you'd better get
• 3:49
  Speaker 4: started on that pretty soon. Because I believe the calendar
• 3:53
  Speaker 4: shows there are just 14 more shopping days left before Christmas.
• 3:58
  Speaker 4: Of course, any one of those 14 days could get
• 4:00
  Speaker 4: off to a very bad start if you suddenly discovered
• 4:02
  Speaker 4: that you were all out of Lux Flakes. You know,
• 4:06
  Speaker 4: there are two kinds of flakes that make a white Christmas.
• 4:10
  Speaker 4: Snowflakes and Lux Flakes. So while you're concentrating on what
• 4:15
  Speaker 4: you're going to give Uncle George and Aunt Susan... put
• 4:17
  Speaker 4: a little Christmas cheer in your housekeeping by giving yourself
• 4:20
  Speaker 4: some Lux Flakes. And now here's The Doctor Takes a Wife,
• 4:24
  Speaker 4: starring Melvin Douglas as Tim and Virginia Bruce as June,
• 4:28
  Speaker 4: with Lynn Carver as Marilyn and Edgar Barrier as John Pierce.
• 4:33
  Speaker 4: The curtain rises for the first act.
• 4:40
  Speaker 5: I want a copy of Spinsters on Spinish.
• 4:42
  Speaker 6: No, madam, we have to be rolling on this mission
• 4:44
  Speaker 6: before noon. I've been doing 10 minutes of my job.
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: I want two copies of Spinsters on Spinish mailed to
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: my aunt.
• 4:49
  Speaker 5: Buy a copy of Spinsters on Spinish, my dear, and
• 4:51
  Speaker 5: read every word. You'll never look at Harriet. The author's
• 4:53
  Speaker 5: a bachelor girl.
• 4:54
  Speaker 7: And they say her book answers everything.
• 4:56
  Speaker 8: Is this the book that tells you how to put
• 4:58
  Speaker 8: men in their places?
• 4:59
  Speaker 5: Give me another copy of Spinsters on Spinish.
• 5:04
  Speaker 4: The book counter of the John S. Pierce Publishing Company
• 5:07
  Speaker 4: is like dollar day in a bargain basement. And all
• 5:11
  Speaker 4: because of one book, Spinster's Aunt Spinach. In the back
• 5:16
  Speaker 4: of the store sits the happy publisher, his desk littered
• 5:20
  Speaker 4: with enthusiastic telegrams.
• 5:22
  Speaker 9: Listen to this, Miss Gray. What H.G. Wells has done
• 5:24
  Speaker 9: for the amoeba, June Cameron has done for the unmarried
• 5:27
  Speaker 9: woman in her book, Spinster's Aunt Spinach. And there are
• 5:29
  Speaker 9: a million wires just like it. Miss Gray, take a telegram.
• 5:32
  Speaker 9: June Cameron, Lakewood Lodge, cut your vacation short and hurry back.
• 5:36
  Speaker 9: Have great plans for a sequel.
• 5:40
  Speaker 4: At Lakewood Lodge, June Cameron hurries across the lobby to
• 5:43
  Speaker 4: the desk. The clerk is not in sight, so she
• 5:46
  Speaker 4: bangs the desk bell impatiently. This seems to annoy the
• 5:49
  Speaker 4: gentleman who is using a telephone at the opposite end
• 5:52
  Speaker 4: of the desk.
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: Hey, look, I'm telephoning. Cut it out, will you, please?
• 5:57
  Speaker 6: Just go right ahead. Don't mind me.
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: I mean, that thing isn't helping a bit. The connection's
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: bad enough as it is.
• 6:03
  Speaker 6: Yes, I know. Everything's inefficient up here.
• 6:05
  Speaker 10: Coming, Miss Cameron.
• 6:06
  Speaker 6: I'm checking out. I'm in a terrible hurry. I'd like
• 6:08
  Speaker 6: to send a telegram to.
• 6:09
  Speaker 10: New York, please.
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: Hello?
• 6:10
  Speaker 11: Dad?
• 6:11
  Speaker 12: I'm going to have to send it from town.
• 6:12
  Speaker 10: We don't have that service.
• 6:13
  Speaker 6: Well, can't you phone it in?
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: I can't hear you.
• 6:15
  Speaker 10: Phone's busy at the moment.
• 6:16
  Speaker 6: What?
• 6:17
  Speaker 10: Say it again.
• 6:18
  Speaker 6: But I can't wait. I'm in a hurry.
• 6:20
  Speaker 12: I'm sorry, miss.
• 6:20
  Speaker 6: Never mind. Can somebody take my bag?
• 6:23
  Speaker 12: Yes, ma'am.
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: Where's your car?
• 6:24
  Speaker 5: What?
• 6:24
  Speaker 6: Well, I'm not driving.
• 6:25
  Speaker 10: Oh, sure.
• 6:26
  Speaker 12: That's too bad.
• 6:26
  Speaker 13: If you'd left five minutes ago, you might have made it.
• 6:28
  Speaker 6: If you're going to tell me there's not another train.
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: I'm sorry, Dad.
• 6:31
  Speaker 5: Well, there's another one tomorrow morning.
• 6:32
  Speaker 6: But I've got to get to New York right now.
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: Just a moment. Pardon me, but would you mind lowering
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: your voice? The phone. Thank you. What was that, Dad?
• 6:42
  Speaker 6: Of all the inefficient hotels I ever had.
• 6:44
  Speaker 5: Would you mind?
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: This is long distance.
• 6:46
  Speaker 6: Then why don't you phone from a booth?
• 6:48
  Speaker 8: I would if there.
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: Were a booth. But this happens to be the only
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: phone that's costing me money. What'd you say, Dad?
• 6:54
  Speaker 6: Can I hire a car somewhere?
• 6:55
  Speaker 12: Not in your town, Miss.
• 6:57
  Speaker 6: Oh, but that's ridiculous.
• 6:57
  Speaker 10: Will you please keep quiet?
• 6:59
  Speaker 6: If you were a gentleman, you'd wait till I got through.
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: I can't carry on this conversation.
• 7:02
  Speaker 6: You have no right to monopolize the lobby.
• 7:05
  Speaker 10: What, Dad?
• 7:06
  Speaker 6: Yes? Of all the stupid things I ever heard of,
• 7:08
  Speaker 6: this is the worst.
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: Well, I'll tell you, Dad, I....
• 7:12
  Speaker 12: Oh.
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: Hello, Dad. I'll drive down now. Yes, I'm leaving right away.
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: See you soon.
• 7:20
  Speaker 4: Bye.
• 7:20
  Speaker 12: A little difficult trying to hear, eh, Dr.
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: Sterling? Well, it calmed down a little when the storm
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: blew over. Well, goodbye, Mr.
• 7:27
  Speaker 14: Bird.
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: See you next year.
• 7:28
  Speaker 13: Be looking for you, Dr.
• 7:28
  Speaker 6: Sterling.
• 7:29
  Speaker 10: So long.
• 7:35
  Speaker 6: Hello there.
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: Oh, it's you.
• 7:38
  Speaker 6: I'm sorry I shouted at you.
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: Oh, I didn't mind. But it's really bad for your
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: nerve centers. You shouldn't get so excited.
• 7:45
  Speaker 6: Well, I had a right to be annoyed. Um, is
• 7:48
  Speaker 6: that your car there?
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: Yes, it is. But it doesn't pay to get excited, miss.
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: If you could see the punishment those little cells take.
• 7:54
  Speaker 6: Which way are you going?
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: New York.
• 7:56
  Speaker 6: New York. Oh, that's sweet of you.
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: What is?
• 7:59
  Speaker 6: I'll just toss my bag in the car.
• 8:00
  Speaker 10: But listen.
• 8:00
  Speaker 6: Well, that's all right. I'll be glad to do it.
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: Now, wait. I don't want to.
• 8:04
  Speaker 6: Here we go. My, aren't you kind, though? I like
• 8:17
  Speaker 6: your car. Of course, it's a little out of date,
• 8:20
  Speaker 6: but old things are so interesting, aren't they? It's getting
• 8:25
  Speaker 6: a little chilly. Wouldn't mind if I put on my coat.
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: Just look out for those boxes back there. Look out!
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: Look out!
• 8:30
  Speaker 6: Good heavens, what's that thing? It's a human head.
• 8:34
  Speaker 9: It is not.
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: It's a model. And if it's broken, let me see it.
• 8:38
  Speaker 4: No.
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: No cracks on that side.
• 8:41
  Speaker 6: Spitting image of my Uncle Chester.
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: No cracks on this side. I guess it's all right.
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: Just be careful of it.
• 8:47
  Speaker 6: Fond of him, aren't you? Do you always travel together?
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: I use him yet in my work.
• 8:54
  Speaker 6: Well, I don't mean to pry into your private life,
• 8:56
  Speaker 6: but just what is Chester to you?
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: I teach neuropsychiatry. I'm doing research on migraine headaches. The
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: head opens up.
• 9:03
  Speaker 12: Oh.
• 9:04
  Speaker 6: And just what is a migraine headache?
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: Blood vessels in the head dilate excessively, causing pressure on
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: the nerve centers. We go at too fast a pace,
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: especially women. They're not constituted to take an equal place
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: in a man's world.
• 9:17
  Speaker 6: What makes you think it's a man's world? The modern
• 9:21
  Speaker 6: woman can match you men fiber for fiber and have
• 9:23
  Speaker 6: a rib left over.
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: You must have read that someplace.
• 9:27
  Speaker 6: I did. In a wonderful book called Spinster's Aunt Spinach.
• 9:32
  Speaker 8: Oh, yes.
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: The chambermaid at the hotel had a copy. The one
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: with no forehead. You shouldn't read trash like that.
• 9:39
  Speaker 6: I didn't read it.
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: Just as well.
• 9:41
  Speaker 10: I wrote it.
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: Oh. Well, sorry.
• 9:45
  Speaker 6: No, that's all right. I didn't expect you or any
• 9:47
  Speaker 6: other man to like it. Marriage is no longer the
• 9:49
  Speaker 6: answer to a maiden's prayer. Standing over a hot stove
• 9:52
  Speaker 6: is all right for the more backward of our sisters,
• 9:54
  Speaker 6: but a new kind of woman is coming into her own.
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: Oh, is that a fact?
• 9:57
  Speaker 6: Yes. The kind that refuses to subordinate her own personality
• 10:01
  Speaker 6: to that of the egotistical, domineering male.
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: The Amazons tried it.
• 10:07
  Speaker 6: You know, you're the complete picture of the smug male.
• 10:10
  Speaker 6: You won't discuss it because you know I'm right.
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: You really can't discuss anything with women. They never have
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: an open mind.
• 10:16
  Speaker 6: You're the perfect type. I must remember you for my
• 10:19
  Speaker 6: second book. Oh, look, would you mind stopping in this town?
• 10:21
  Speaker 6: I have to send a wire to my publisher.
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: I'm very anxious to get back.
• 10:25
  Speaker 6: Oh, it'll give you a chance to rest your nerve centers.
• 10:27
  Speaker 6: You've been going at a fast clip, you know. On
• 10:28
  Speaker 6: the straight way back there, you almost hit 30.
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: Okay. But will you please hurry?
• 10:34
  Speaker 10: Thanks.
• 10:34
  Speaker 6: This is awfully important. Oh, there's a telegraph office. You
• 10:37
  Speaker 6: can park right here.
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: Well, well. Right in front of the Justice of the
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: Pieces office. And isn't there a wedding going on?
• 10:44
  Speaker 6: What of it?
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: It merely goes to prove that someone didn't read your book.
• 10:48
  Speaker 6: You haven't heard of any lawyers in Reno starving, have you?
• 10:51
  Speaker 6: Be right back.
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: Make it snappy, will you? I'm due in New York
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: at 7 o'clock. Hey, kid, you want to make a dime?
• 10:58
  Speaker 6: Sure.
• 10:58
  Speaker 5: What do I do, mister?
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: Look, you see this sign?
• 11:01
  Speaker 6: What's it say? Oh, just married, huh? Mm-hmm.
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: Hang it on that car over there. The bride and
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: groom will be out any second, so don't let them
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: see it.
• 11:08
  Speaker 6: I won't.
• 11:09
  Speaker 5: Which car, you say?
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: That one over there. Go ahead.
• 11:11
  Speaker 5: Okay, thanks, mister.
• 11:15
  Speaker 6: Will you take this telegram, please?
• 11:17
  Speaker 7: Great telegram to John S. Pierce, Pierce Publishing Company, New York.
• 11:22
  Speaker 7: Driving down today. We'll see you tomorrow. Have a big surprise.
• 11:25
  Speaker 7: Best regards, June Cameron.
• 11:28
  Speaker 6: June Cameron, are you, are you the author? Yes, you
• 11:33
  Speaker 6: How much is the wire, please? Uh, 62 cents. I
• 11:37
  Speaker 6: read it three times. Did you?
• 11:39
  Speaker 7: There you are, 62 cents. Oh, it's simply wonderful. I
• 11:43
  Speaker 7: keep it under the counter. Will you autograph my copy
• 11:45
  Speaker 7: for me?
• 11:46
  Speaker 6: Well, certainly. Give it to me. Oh, thank you, Miss Cameron.
• 11:50
  Speaker 6: Thank you so much. Not at all. You'll see that
• 11:52
  Speaker 6: my wire is sent immediately? I sure will.
• 11:55
  Speaker 7: Oh, Miss Cameron, you're probably in a hurry, but I
• 11:58
  Speaker 7: do want to tell you what this book has done
• 12:00
  Speaker 7: for me.
• 12:01
  Speaker 6: It's changed me into a career woman.
• 12:03
  Speaker 7: I used to feel awful when men didn't insult me,
• 12:06
  Speaker 7: but now I don't even care.
• 12:08
  Speaker 6: Fine, you just keep it up.
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: Hey, are you ready? Let's go.
• 12:11
  Speaker 6: Coming.
• 12:12
  Speaker 5: Goodbye.
• 12:13
  Speaker 6: Goodbye. Goodbye, Miss Cameron.
• 12:14
  Speaker 10: Hey, Prudence, who's that?
• 12:16
  Speaker 7: Why, that's June Cameron herself, the author of Spinsters Aren't Spinach.
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: Spencer, huh? Why don't she practice what she preaches?
• 12:23
  Speaker 10: She ain't no Spencer.
• 12:24
  Speaker 6: Why she is so?
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: Oh, yeah? Well, take a look at the sign on
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: the car. If that don't say, just married, I can't read.
• 12:31
  Speaker 6: Just married?
• 12:34
  Speaker 7: Oh, so that was the big surprise in the telegram. Well,
• 12:37
  Speaker 7: wait till the newspapers get hold of this, and I'll
• 12:39
  Speaker 7: tell them, the deserter.
• 12:41
  Speaker 3: The Deserter.
• 12:48
  Speaker 6: Will you please toss out my other bag?
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: Here you are.
• 12:51
  Speaker 6: Thank heavens I'm home at last.
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: You're no happier about it than I am.
• 12:55
  Speaker 6: You men resent the intelligent woman. All you want is
• 12:58
  Speaker 6: someone to inflate your ego.
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: The independent but frustrated female. Drop into my class someday.
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: You're a good specimen.
• 13:05
  Speaker 6: Thanks for the ride.
• 13:07
  Speaker 9: Hey, my head.
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: You've got my head. Come back here.
• 13:10
  Speaker 10: Hey, come back. You're not going to get away with this.
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: Where's my head?
• 13:19
  Speaker 6: I don't know. I left it in the car.
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: You did not. That head cost me $ 250, and I'm
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: going to stay right here until you give.
• 13:25
  Speaker 12: It to me.
• 13:25
  Speaker 6: Will you please get out of here?
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: No, you've got my... Oh, there it is.
• 13:29
  Speaker 6: It is not. That's my hat box. Give it to me.
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: It is not your hat box. My head's in there.
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: Let go of it. Oh, now look what you've done.
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: You've broken the nose.
• 13:38
  Speaker 6: I'm sorry. I thought it was my hat box, really,
• 13:42
  Speaker 6: but you pulled the box out of my hands.
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: That's right. The career woman is never to blame. Of
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: all the ungrateful females, you force your way into my car.
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: I drive you for 400 miles, pay for the gas
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: and oil, and then you ruin a $ 250 head.
• 13:57
  Speaker 6: You don't need that little piece. Chester won't get a
• 13:59
  Speaker 6: headache in the nose.
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: All right, I've had enough. If you're going to take
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: that attitude, you can pay for the trip. Cost me $ 9.
• 14:06
  Speaker 6: 80.
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: You owe me half. $ 4. 90.
• 14:10
  Speaker 6: Run along and correct some papers or something.
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: Ordinarily, I'm a very calm and peaceful individual. That's because
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: I have thin earlobes and eyes set wide apart. But
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: you see these? They're thumbs. Short thumbs. That means I'm stubborn.
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: And I won't get out of here until I get
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: my $ 4. 90.
• 14:29
  Speaker 6: Fortunately, my thumbs show no evidence of pygmy ancestors. But I, too,
• 14:34
  Speaker 6: can have my obstinate moments, and this is one of them.
• 14:37
  Speaker 6: What are you doing with that ashtray?
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: It's mine now. I'll deduct 75 cents for it. That
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: leaves $ 4. 15, you owe me. Oh, what's this?
• 14:47
  Speaker 6: That's my paper knife, and you can put it right down.
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: Well, it's not real silver, is it? No, sorry. The
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: best I can do on this is a dollar. That
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: is 3.15, you owe me. Now, what else? What's in
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: this thing?
• 15:01
  Speaker 6: That's the liquor cabinet.
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: That's what I thought. Uh-huh. Scotch. Ten years old, too.
• 15:08
  Speaker 6: That's more than I can save for you.
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: This may take care of the balance. Now, let's be
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: generous and say it's worth 40 cents a drink.
• 15:16
  Speaker 6: Well.
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: Here's mud in your eye. I'm wrong. 20 cents.
• 15:31
  Speaker 9: Now, look, boys, look. I'm John Pierce. I'm Miss Cameron's publisher.
• 15:35
  Speaker 9: If she's married, I'd know about it because it would
• 15:37
  Speaker 9: probably be me. I.
• 15:39
  Speaker 13: All right, but we want the story from her. Is
• 15:41
  Speaker 13: this where the dame lives?
• 15:42
  Speaker 9: Yes, sure, but now wait a minute, boys. June's only
• 15:45
  Speaker 9: been back three hours, and it's late.
• 15:46
  Speaker 13: Look, the paper said to get a story. We're reporters,
• 15:48
  Speaker 13: and we've got to get it.
• 15:49
  Speaker 10: Hey, look, here's the card.
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: Just married, the sign says.
• 15:51
  Speaker 10: She did all right. She married a doctor.
• 15:53
  Speaker 9: Oh, that couldn't be her car.
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: It isn't her car.
• 15:55
  Speaker 13: It's her husband's.
• 15:55
  Speaker 10: Now, look, Mr. Pierce, we don't blame you for wanting
• 15:57
  Speaker 10: to keep it quiet.
• 15:58
  Speaker 15: We know that wedding bell means curtains for that next
• 16:00
  Speaker 15: bestseller of hers.
• 16:01
  Speaker 8: And we extend our condolences. But the other papers will
• 16:03
  Speaker 8: happen in a couple of hours, and we've got to
• 16:04
  Speaker 8: beat them to it.
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: Come on, now.
• 16:06
  Speaker 13: Let's go up and get this over with.
• 16:07
  Speaker 9: Now, believe me, boys, this is ridiculous. If June Cameron's married,
• 16:11
  Speaker 9: I'm the king of Persia.
• 16:12
  Speaker 10: Make way for his majesty.
• 16:14
  Speaker 12: Come on, fellas.
• 16:15
  Speaker 13: Let's get away from here.
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's good. Now, let's see. That makes a balance
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: of 60 cents, you owe me.
• 16:29
  Speaker 6: Would you like to take the rest out in aspirin?
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: Don't interrupt. Marilyn never interrupts. Oh, I haven't told you
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: about Marilyn, have I? Marilyn's the girl I'm going to
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: marry as soon as I become a professor.
• 16:43
  Speaker 6: Look, Hamlet, now that the bill's paid, will you get out?
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: Very well, if that's the way you feel about it.
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: Very well. Good day, madam.
• 16:52
  Speaker 6: Hey, hey, not that way. That's my bedroom.
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: Good day.
• 16:55
  Speaker 5: Get out of there. Oh, by heavens, who is it?
• 16:59
  Speaker 13: Congratulations. Where'd you meet him?
• 17:01
  Speaker 10: Don't say a word.
• 17:02
  Speaker 9: What do you think of the matrimonial state?
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: Well, fellas, please.
• 17:06
  Speaker 6: Don't tell me what this is all about, Johnny. Just
• 17:08
  Speaker 6: let me guess. I know. It's a college initiation.
• 17:11
  Speaker 13: Look, Miss Cameron, we're all losing sleep. Who, where, what,
• 17:13
  Speaker 13: and why did you get married?
• 17:14
  Speaker 6: All right, fellas, it's a very funny gag. Now run along,
• 17:17
  Speaker 6: tip over some milk wagons, and go home.
• 17:19
  Speaker 13: You see?
• 17:20
  Speaker 11: You see?
• 17:20
  Speaker 9: She isn't married. She doesn't know a thing about it.
• 17:22
  Speaker 6: Listen. Close that door. That's my bedroom.
• 17:24
  Speaker 10: Now, come on, Miss Cameron. Your husband's in there. What's
• 17:26
  Speaker 10: his name?
• 17:26
  Speaker 6: He's not my husband. Johnny, throw these vultures out of here.
• 17:28
  Speaker 6: They're going to print I'm married.
• 17:30
  Speaker 9: Who is he, June, that man in there?
• 17:31
  Speaker 6: He's not my husband. Now, listen to me.
• 17:33
  Speaker 13: Okay, we'll print that the guy in the bedroom is
• 17:35
  Speaker 13: not your husband.
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: No, no.
• 17:38
  Speaker 9: If you can't do that, it would ruin our reputation. Look, June,
• 17:40
  Speaker 9: we might as well admit it. The evidence is right
• 17:42
  Speaker 9: in there. Well, I guess she's married, boys.
• 17:45
  Speaker 6: Johnny, if you'll just listen.
• 17:46
  Speaker 10: Thanks, Miss Cameron.
• 17:47
  Speaker 13: We'll give you a nice, dignified ride.
• 17:48
  Speaker 10: A photographer will be along later. Be seeing you.
• 17:50
  Speaker 6: Come on, boys.
• 17:51
  Speaker 4: Let's get out of here.
• 17:53
  Speaker 6: Just what was the idea?
• 17:55
  Speaker 9: Isn't he your husband?
• 17:56
  Speaker 2: No.
• 17:57
  Speaker 6: That migraine headache in there gave me a lift, followed
• 17:59
  Speaker 6: me here, and ended up by passing out. You see,
• 18:02
  Speaker 6: he's got short thumbs. Oh, never mind. Just get it
• 18:04
  Speaker 6: through your head. I'm not married.
• 18:06
  Speaker 9: All right, dear. I believe you.
• 18:07
  Speaker 6: Fine time to decide that.
• 18:09
  Speaker 9: No, but don't you see, darling, it was one thing
• 18:10
  Speaker 9: or another. It's much better the newspapers believe you're married.
• 18:13
  Speaker 6: But it's not the truth. It'll ruin me.
• 18:15
  Speaker 9: When my creditors get through with me, I'll have to
• 18:17
  Speaker 9: sublet my water cooler. Or will I? Wait a minute.
• 18:21
  Speaker 9: How many spinsters are there in America?
• 18:23
  Speaker 6: Exactly eight million and some thousands who aren't going to
• 18:26
  Speaker 6: buy my book.
• 18:26
  Speaker 9: And how many married women are there?
• 18:28
  Speaker 6: Oh, there must be practically hundreds.
• 18:29
  Speaker 10: I've got it.
• 18:30
  Speaker 9: You're going to write that second book. A book about marriage.
• 18:33
  Speaker 9: We'll call it, we'll call it, we'll call it Marriage
• 18:36
  Speaker 9: Ain't Measles.
• 18:37
  Speaker 6: Oh, Johnny. Johnny, dear, why don't you lie down for
• 18:40
  Speaker 6: a minute? Whatever it is, it'll go away.
• 18:42
  Speaker 9: Listen, what you did for the spinsters, you can do
• 18:43
  Speaker 9: for the housewives. Get the angle, you're converted. America's number
• 18:46
  Speaker 9: one bachelor girl tastes the fruits of marriage and loves it.
• 18:49
  Speaker 6: You mean to write a book you want me to
• 18:51
  Speaker 6: pretend marriage to Dr. Jekyll and then?
• 18:53
  Speaker 9: Only till you finish the book and then Reno and
• 18:55
  Speaker 9: you fake a divorce.
• 18:56
  Speaker 6: You must be pretty deeply attached to me to cook
• 18:59
  Speaker 6: up such an idyllic arrangement with that medical pot roast.
• 19:02
  Speaker 9: It isn't that, dear. This is business and terrific. We
• 19:05
  Speaker 9: can sell a million copies of Marriage Ain't Measles.
• 19:09
  Speaker 6: Well, um, do you actually think of I wrote a
• 19:11
  Speaker 6: book on marriage, it would sound.
• 19:13
  Speaker 9: Oh, I knew you'd come through. Of course it would.
• 19:15
  Speaker 9: Women would love someone to give them a reason for
• 19:17
  Speaker 9: why they got married. Glorify the American home. Security, the fireside.
• 19:21
  Speaker 6: Show them how to keep romance alive. Teach every wife to... Oh,
• 19:24
  Speaker 6: but what about Junior in there? He'll never go through
• 19:27
  Speaker 6: with it.
• 19:27
  Speaker 9: I'll take care of him. I'll be back and talk
• 19:29
  Speaker 9: to him first thing in the morning.
• 19:30
  Speaker 14: Morning?
• 19:30
  Speaker 9: Well, we can't take him out now. There might be
• 19:32
  Speaker 9: reporters around. They'll think it's a gin marriage. Well, it's
• 19:34
  Speaker 9: all settled then. Good night, darling. See you tomorrow.
• 19:36
  Speaker 6: Hey, hey, where am I going to sleep?
• 19:38
  Speaker 9: How about the couch there?
• 19:40
  Speaker 6: That's what I thought.
• 19:51
  Speaker 9: Good morning, June. And how's America's favorite authoress?
• 19:54
  Speaker 6: I feel like I've slept in a cement mixer.
• 19:57
  Speaker 12: Where is he?
• 19:58
  Speaker 6: Junior, how do I know? I guess he's still asleep.
• 20:00
  Speaker 9: Come on, we'll go see.
• 20:02
  Speaker 6: Well, there he is, and you can have him.
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: Wake up.
• 20:06
  Speaker 10: Wake up, old man.
• 20:07
  Speaker 6: Huh?
• 20:08
  Speaker 16: Huh?
• 20:09
  Speaker 6: Huh?
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: Hey, what are you doing in my room? Hmm, where
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: am I?
• 20:14
  Speaker 6: I can tell you one thing, Goldilocks. You're not in heaven.
• 20:17
  Speaker 9: But you're a very lucky man. You've made money while
• 20:20
  Speaker 9: you were asleep.
• 20:20
  Speaker 6: That's it. Break it to him gently.
• 20:22
  Speaker 9: Listen to what the morning paper has to say. Public
• 20:24
  Speaker 9: spinster number one weds. June Cameron turns Benedict Arnold. Marries Dr.
• 20:29
  Speaker 9: Timothy Sterling in Greenwich.
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: Dr. Timothy Sterling, huh?
• 20:33
  Speaker 9: Hey, that's me.
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: It's a frame-up. Where are my pants?
• 20:38
  Speaker 6: Don't look at me. I'm not wearing them.
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: You get out of here.
• 20:41
  Speaker 9: Run along, dear.
• 20:42
  Speaker 10: I'll explain the whole thing.
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: Do that.
• 20:44
  Speaker 6: But you better be more convincing than I think you are.
• 20:47
  Speaker 9: Well, you see, Doctor, there's been a slight mix-up, and
• 20:50
  Speaker 9: everyone thinks you're married to Miss Cameron.
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: Where are my pants?
• 20:53
  Speaker 9: And for the time being, it will be convenient for
• 20:55
  Speaker 9: them to think so. You see, Miss Cameron's writing a
• 20:57
  Speaker 9: book on marriage.
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: And you want me to pose as her husband? Oh, no. Besides,
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: Marilyn might... I'll make it worth your while, Doctor.
• 21:03
  Speaker 9: Say, 5% of the gross sales, that'll be about.
• 21:06
  Speaker 2: No, it's all a cheap publicity stunt to sell that
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: trash she writes. Are you going to give me my pants?
• 21:11
  Speaker 9: Now, look, old man. I'll make it 10%.
• 21:14
  Speaker 2: I said no, not for 110%. For the last time,
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: where am I? Oh, here they are.
• 21:19
  Speaker 9: Now, let's not be hasty about this. 10% of the
• 21:22
  Speaker 9: gross sales of that book will be a tidy little sum.
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: Where's my head?
• 21:25
  Speaker 12: Huh?
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: I said, where's my head?
• 21:27
  Speaker 9: How about the one with your hat on it?
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: That's not it. The wax head. The one that opens up.
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: Don't tell me that... Oh, oh, there it is. Now,
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: if you'll just get out of my way, I'm going.
• 21:37
  Speaker 9: Now, look, Doctor.
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: Get out of my way and don't ever bother me again.
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: If you do, I'll sue you for 10%. Good day. Mr.
• 21:52
  Speaker 17: DeMille presents Act II of The Doctor Takes a Wife,
• 21:54
  Speaker 17: starring Melvin Douglas and Virginia Bruce, in just a moment.
• 21:58
  Speaker 17: But right now, I'm going to take a few seconds to, uh, Well,
• 22:02
  Speaker 17: to unravel a little yarn with our favorite fashion reporter,
• 22:05
  Speaker 17: Libby Collins. Say, Libby, what is all this? Isn't knitting
• 22:09
  Speaker 17: something new for you? I thought you just talked about fashions.
• 22:12
  Speaker 6: Why, Mr.
• 22:13
  Speaker 14: Roig, a woman doesn't stop talking when she starts knitting.
• 22:16
  Speaker 14: As a matter of fact, I brought my knitting along
• 22:18
  Speaker 14: because that's what I want to talk about.
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: Knitting, you mean?
• 22:21
  Speaker 3: Mm-hmm.
• 22:22
  Speaker 14: Hand knits are smarter than ever now, especially the sort
• 22:24
  Speaker 14: of thing I'm making, a black sweater. You know, a
• 22:27
  Speaker 14: black sweater is one of the nicest Christmas gifts I
• 22:29
  Speaker 14: can think of. They're lovely ones in the stores if
• 22:32
  Speaker 14: you don't like to knit. They're so smart, and not
• 22:35
  Speaker 14: just for sports and country wear by any means. They're
• 22:38
  Speaker 14: just as right for tea or dinner or evening if
• 22:40
  Speaker 14: you dress them up with a heavy gold or jeweled necklace.
• 22:43
  Speaker 14: And then they're so practical, so easy to luxe.
• 22:46
  Speaker 2: Black or bright, luxe does them right.
• 22:49
  Speaker 14: Yes, and the color needn't run a bit. Of course,
• 22:52
  Speaker 14: a black sweater needs luxing just as often as a
• 22:54
  Speaker 14: light one. Nobody wants that horrible feeling of, well, of
• 22:58
  Speaker 14: not being quite sure about freshness. Frequent luxing makes you sure.
• 23:03
  Speaker 17: Well, that's easy advice to follow, ladies. You'll have perfect
• 23:06
  Speaker 17: results if you wash sweaters the new quick lux way.
• 23:10
  Speaker 17: Here are some do's and don'ts to remember. Do make
• 23:13
  Speaker 17: a paper pattern the size of your sweater before luxing. Then,
• 23:17
  Speaker 17: after washing, ease the sweater back to this shape. Do
• 23:21
  Speaker 17: use lukewarm lux suds. Just squeeze them through, never rub.
• 23:26
  Speaker 17: Don't use soaps that contain harmful alkali. Don't rub with
• 23:30
  Speaker 17: cake soaps. These things shrink wool, leave sweaters harsh and matted.
• 23:35
  Speaker 17: So don't take chances with harsh soaps. Do stick to
• 23:39
  Speaker 17: new quick luxe flakes for sweaters and all knitted things.
• 23:42
  Speaker 17: Luxe is so gentle, so fast, so thrifty. It keeps
• 23:46
  Speaker 17: your pretty washables like new much longer.
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: Now, Mr. DeMille returns to the microphone.
• 23:53
  Speaker 4: Act two of The Doctor Takes a Wife, starring Melvin
• 23:56
  Speaker 4: Douglas as Tim and Virginia Bruce as June. Timothy Sterling,
• 24:05
  Speaker 4: professor of psychiatry, refuses to play husband to June Cameron,
• 24:09
  Speaker 4: expert on feminine psychology. Standing on his constitutional right to
• 24:13
  Speaker 4: remain single, he has left June's apartment in a huff.
• 24:17
  Speaker 4: He's still in the same huff when he arrives at
• 24:19
  Speaker 4: the medical building of State University.
• 24:22
  Speaker 6: State University. Medical building.
• 24:24
  Speaker 10: Just a moment.
• 24:25
  Speaker 6: I'll connect you. Oh, hello, Dr. Sterling. Congratulations, Dr.
• 24:30
  Speaker 5: Sterling.
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: Get the editors of the Express. The Herald. Get all
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: the papers. I want to talk to them.
• 24:33
  Speaker 6: All right, doctor.
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: Hello, Dad.
• 24:35
  Speaker 10: Tim, my boy, I've been trying to reach you.
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: Look, Dad, let me explain. It was all a mistake.
• 24:40
  Speaker 10: Son, you don't know how happy you've made me. For
• 24:42
  Speaker 10: a while, I was very much afraid it was going
• 24:44
  Speaker 10: to be Marilyn.
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: Huh? Were you?
• 24:47
  Speaker 12: Yes.
• 24:48
  Speaker 10: Definitely an inferior mate.
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: Now, Dad, let me tell you.
• 24:51
  Speaker 15: Oh, I know how these things happen. Suddenly the right
• 24:53
  Speaker 15: person comes along and the next thing you're married.
• 24:56
  Speaker 10: Very wise.
• 24:57
  Speaker 2: Dad, sit down. I want you to sit down. I've
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: got something to tell you. It may be a shock.
• 25:01
  Speaker 15: I've got a little shock for you, my boy, but
• 25:03
  Speaker 15: a rather pleasant one. I just spoke to Dean Lawton. Congratulations,
• 25:08
  Speaker 15: Professor Sterling. That's beside the.
• 25:12
  Speaker 2: Professor... But I thought Dr. Hampshire was going to get
• 25:16
  Speaker 2: that post.
• 25:16
  Speaker 15: It was close until this morning. But you know how
• 25:18
  Speaker 15: the dean feels about marriage. And since you're a married
• 25:21
  Speaker 15: man and Hampshire.
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: Isn't... It couldn't be just because I'm married.
• 25:25
  Speaker 10: It's always been.
• 25:25
  Speaker 15: A theory of the dean's that the chair of neuropsychiatry
• 25:28
  Speaker 15: should be held by a married man. A man who
• 25:31
  Speaker 15: leads a natural, well-balanced life will have a sounder approach
• 25:34
  Speaker 15: to the study.
• 25:35
  Speaker 2: Of the unbalanced. Professor Sterling. Oh, that's too bad.
• 25:39
  Speaker 10: What's the matter, son? Don't you want the professorship?
• 25:41
  Speaker 2: Oh, yes, I do. But you see, Marilyn's coming in
• 25:44
  Speaker 2: on the boat in about an hour, and the truth is... Congratulations,
• 25:48
  Speaker 2: Professor Sterling.
• 25:48
  Speaker 10: Congratulations.
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: My boy, Dean Lawton. Congratulations, Professor Sterling.
• 25:57
  Speaker 10: When can we see the bride?
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: Oh, any time. Well, that's fine, son.
• 26:01
  Speaker 10: We'll all drop around tonight.
• 26:03
  Speaker 2: Hello? Who? Oh, the heralds. No, no, no, no, no.
• 26:10
  Speaker 2: I didn't want to make a statement. Oh, well, the
• 26:12
  Speaker 2: reason I called was that Mrs. Sterling and I would
• 26:16
  Speaker 2: like to take a two-year subscription.
• 26:24
  Speaker 9: I knew you'd come through, old man.
• 26:26
  Speaker 2: I knew it.
• 26:26
  Speaker 9: I know a gentleman when I see one.
• 26:28
  Speaker 2: Thanks.
• 26:29
  Speaker 6: Very sweet of you, doctor. But what made you suddenly
• 26:30
  Speaker 6: change your mind? This morning, the idea of posing as
• 26:33
  Speaker 6: my husband seemed particularly revolting to you.
• 26:34
  Speaker 2: Well, don't get the idea I like this. I'm only
• 26:37
  Speaker 2: doing it because I'm... I'm a gentleman. I don't want
• 26:40
  Speaker 2: to ruin your career.
• 26:41
  Speaker 10: Thanks.
• 26:42
  Speaker 6: But I hope you realize all the inconveniences.
• 26:44
  Speaker 9: Now, now, the doctor knows what he's doing.
• 26:45
  Speaker 2: And one thing I want to get straight. Of course,
• 26:48
  Speaker 2: when you get to Reno, you'll have to take all
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: the blame. My position at the university, you understand.
• 26:52
  Speaker 9: Naturally, naturally. We'll paint her black as a coal scuttle.
• 26:56
  Speaker 6: I can see that chivalry is not dead. It's not
• 26:58
  Speaker 6: doing so well, but it's not dead.
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: Another thing. What about Marilyn? Marilyn?
• 27:02
  Speaker 12: Who's Marilyn?
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: The boat. I mean my fiancée. Her boat's due now.
• 27:06
  Speaker 2: How am I ever going to explain this to her?
• 27:08
  Speaker 9: Oh, just tell her that for the next three months
• 27:10
  Speaker 9: she's got to believe in you, to trust you, to
• 27:12
  Speaker 9: use blind faith. You can do it. You know how
• 27:14
  Speaker 9: to handle women. Don't worry, old man. Don't worry.
• 27:17
  Speaker 2: Yeah, don't worry. Marilyn! Marilyn!
• 27:28
  Speaker 6: Here I am, dear.
• 27:29
  Speaker 2: Over here. Hello, sweetheart.
• 27:32
  Speaker 5: Hello, sweetheart. How touching.
• 27:34
  Speaker 2: Well, darling, what's the matter? Were you seasick?
• 27:36
  Speaker 5: Look at that.
• 27:37
  Speaker 4: What?
• 27:37
  Speaker 5: You know what. This paper. June Cameron, Wed's M.D.
• 27:41
  Speaker 2: Now, wait, Marilyn. You'll have to trust me. You'll have
• 27:44
  Speaker 2: to believe in me. That story in the paper.
• 27:46
  Speaker 6: I'd like to stuff that story down your throat!
• 27:48
  Speaker 5: Goodbye, Dr.
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: Sterling. Marilyn, wait, listen! Gangway, gangway there!
• 27:52
  Speaker 12: Hey, bud, what are you standing there for?
• 27:54
  Speaker 13: You want to get run over and get killed?
• 27:56
  Speaker 12: No.
• 27:57
  Speaker 2: But don't put ideas in my head.
• 28:03
  Speaker 6: Well, what happened?
• 28:04
  Speaker 9: Oh, everything's fine. I can tell by his face.
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: She wouldn't even give me a chance to explain. I
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: opened my mouth to say something and got the newspaper
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: pushed in it.
• 28:12
  Speaker 6: Oh, that's too bad.
• 28:13
  Speaker 9: Mâché, mâché.
• 28:14
  Speaker 2: Well, she'll probably cool off after a while.
• 28:16
  Speaker 6: Well, I think it's darn sweet of you, in spite
• 28:18
  Speaker 6: of all your trouble, to go through with this.
• 28:20
  Speaker 2: Well, a gentleman's word is a gentleman's word. Now, if
• 28:24
  Speaker 2: you'll tell me where I can put my stuff.
• 28:25
  Speaker 6: Oh, there's room in there for some of your things.
• 28:27
  Speaker 6: You can have the two top drawers in the bureau.
• 28:29
  Speaker 9: Oh, darling, he'll need more than that. One drawer's enough
• 28:31
  Speaker 9: for you.
• 28:32
  Speaker 6: Oh, certainly. Just throw my things on the floor.
• 28:34
  Speaker 2: How about my suits?
• 28:35
  Speaker 9: Hang them right here in the closet. June, you take
• 28:38
  Speaker 9: your things out. You'll find another place for them.
• 28:39
  Speaker 6: There's always the icebox. It'll be good for the furs.
• 28:42
  Speaker 2: Oh, one thing I forgot. That case over there is
• 28:44
  Speaker 2: full of books. Where do I put them?
• 28:45
  Speaker 6: Do you think this is a good location for a
• 28:47
  Speaker 6: branch library?
• 28:49
  Speaker 2: Well, if you've no objection, I'd like to continue my profession...
• 28:52
  Speaker 2: I'm preparing a full course of study. Is this my bed?
• 28:56
  Speaker 6: Oh, yes, yes, the couch. I slept there all last night.
• 28:59
  Speaker 6: You know, I didn't even know I was sleeping.
• 29:01
  Speaker 2: That's fine. Then you sleep there.
• 29:03
  Speaker 6: I was wrong. Chivalry is dead.
• 29:05
  Speaker 9: Now, darling, uh-uh, don't take that attitude. This is hard
• 29:08
  Speaker 9: on all of us.
• 29:09
  Speaker 6: You take my dresser, my closets, and now my bed.
• 29:11
  Speaker 6: Get out of my way. I'm going to finish this
• 29:13
  Speaker 6: book in three weeks. There he'll stand, the man you love.
• 29:23
  Speaker 2: Will you please stop that typing?
• 29:25
  Speaker 9: What?
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: I'm doing some important work and it bothers me. And
• 29:28
  Speaker 2: that muttering, too.
• 29:30
  Speaker 6: Look, Pasteur, this is the way I work. You'll have
• 29:32
  Speaker 6: to get used to it.
• 29:33
  Speaker 2: You realize I'm doing you a favor just being here?
• 29:36
  Speaker 2: Answer the door.
• 29:37
  Speaker 6: Why don't we hire a butler, dear?
• 29:39
  Speaker 10: My dear, I'm so happy.
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: Oh, hello, dear. I forgot to tell you, dear, a
• 29:47
  Speaker 2: few of the faculty wanted to drop in and meet
• 29:49
  Speaker 2: you tonight.
• 29:49
  Speaker 6: Congratulations, my dear.
• 29:51
  Speaker 13: I've known Tim ever since he was a little boy.
• 29:53
  Speaker 2: This is Dr. and Mrs. Nielsen, dear.
• 29:55
  Speaker 6: Oh, hello.
• 29:57
  Speaker 9: Here, Mrs.
• 29:57
  Speaker 10: Sterling, is a little gift.
• 29:58
  Speaker 2: It's not much, but... Oh, you shouldn't have done that, Dr. Nielsen.
• 30:01
  Speaker 2: It's a book.
• 30:03
  Speaker 6: Occupational diseases of the mind. But just what we needed.
• 30:06
  Speaker 6: You know, I was only saying today that.
• 30:08
  Speaker 2: Dear, don't you think we'd better make some sandwiches? The
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: others will be here in a minute. Others?
• 30:12
  Speaker 6: Isn't that wonderful?
• 30:13
  Speaker 14: With all she's had to do, making fancy sandwiches.
• 30:17
  Speaker 6: Can I help? Oh, no, no, thank you. I've got
• 30:19
  Speaker 6: some cookies. I'll whip up a little coffee.
• 30:22
  Speaker 9: I'll just take it along, Kim.
• 30:24
  Speaker 10: I'd like to see the bride.
• 30:28
  Speaker 6: It's been awfully nice of you, Dr. Lionel, to help.
• 30:30
  Speaker 10: Why, I've enjoyed it, my dear. What else could I do?
• 30:33
  Speaker 6: Well, we're just about ready. Coffee's done. Here, you take
• 30:36
  Speaker 6: these cookies and put a couple on each plate.
• 30:38
  Speaker 10: I'll give three to the dean. He has a coconut fixation.
• 30:41
  Speaker 6: That's playing politics.
• 30:42
  Speaker 15: Well, Tim's professorship's worth an extra cookie.
• 30:45
  Speaker 10: You know, it's pretty funny.
• 30:46
  Speaker 15: For years, Tim has been working 14 hours a day
• 30:49
  Speaker 15: for that professorship.
• 30:50
  Speaker 10: Finally, he gets it, but not because of his research.
• 30:54
  Speaker 15: The thing that decides it's a simple little custom called marriage.
• 30:57
  Speaker 6: Wait a minute. The dean gave Tim the professorship just
• 31:01
  Speaker 6: because he was married to me?
• 31:02
  Speaker 12: Of course.
• 31:03
  Speaker 6: Oh, how unusual. You know, I think the dean deserves
• 31:06
  Speaker 6: a couple of more cookies.
• 31:15
  Speaker 17: Ladies and gentlemen, before we continue with our play, the
• 31:17
  Speaker 17: makers of Lux Flakes switch you to New York for
• 31:20
  Speaker 17: the latest news developments, direct from CBS.
• 31:29
  Speaker 11: This is John Daly reporting from the CBS newsroom in
• 31:32
  Speaker 11: New York. And here are the latest developments in the
• 31:34
  Speaker 11: war with Japan. The first phase of the Japanese surprise
• 31:37
  Speaker 11: attack against British and American possessions in the Pacific appears
• 31:40
  Speaker 11: to be continuing full force. Late reports are sketchy, but
• 31:44
  Speaker 11: they indicate that the offensive is still favoring the Japanese.
• 31:47
  Speaker 11: CBS correspondent Tom Worthen reported from Manila a short time
• 31:50
  Speaker 11: ago that there have been six raids on the Philippines
• 31:53
  Speaker 11: since the war started, from Luzon in the north to
• 31:56
  Speaker 11: Mindanao in the south. Manila itself has had three alarms,
• 31:59
  Speaker 11: but Worthen said no bombs have actually dropped inside the city.
• 32:03
  Speaker 11: Japanese forces are said to have landed on Lubang Island
• 32:06
  Speaker 11: near the entrance to Manila Harbor. And Tokyo now claims
• 32:09
  Speaker 11: the occupation of the American-owned islands Guam and Wake. And
• 32:13
  Speaker 11: the Japanese maintain that a blow of annihilation was dealt
• 32:15
  Speaker 11: Hawaii's Pearl Harbor Naval Base in yesterday's initial attack. According
• 32:20
  Speaker 11: to official Tokyo claims, an American warship has been sunk
• 32:23
  Speaker 11: off Guam and several American merchant ships have been captured.
• 32:27
  Speaker 11: Tokyo has not admitted a single naval loss. Meantime, Governor
• 32:30
  Speaker 11: Poindexter of Hawaii reported a short time ago that Hawaii
• 32:34
  Speaker 11: has been calm since the first blow. Official American accounts
• 32:37
  Speaker 11: say that at least 1,500 persons were killed there by
• 32:40
  Speaker 11: Japanese bomb attacks. The Japanese news agency Domei claimed just
• 32:45
  Speaker 11: a few minutes ago that almost 300 American planes have
• 32:48
  Speaker 11: been destroyed in the two-day-old Pacific War. On America's part,
• 32:53
  Speaker 11: that war became official a little over five hours ago
• 32:55
  Speaker 11: when President Roosevelt signed the war resolution that had been
• 32:58
  Speaker 11: passed in Congress with only one dissenting vote. Earlier in
• 33:01
  Speaker 11: the day, Britain declared war, and Prime Minister Churchill pledged
• 33:05
  Speaker 11: the full resources of the British Empire in the struggle
• 33:08
  Speaker 11: with totalitarianism and aggression. Japan now faces not only the
• 33:12
  Speaker 11: United States and Britain, but these other members as well.
• 33:19
  Speaker 11: San Salvador, the Dominican Republic, Australia, Honduras, the Free French Government,
• 33:25
  Speaker 11: and the Greek and Belgian governments in exile. Mexico and
• 33:28
  Speaker 11: Colombia have broken off diplomatic relations with Japan, and they
• 33:32
  Speaker 11: are expected in the war tomorrow along with South Africa.
• 33:35
  Speaker 2: China, which has been fighting Japan.
• 33:37
  Speaker 11: For four years, is reported preparing a declaration not only
• 33:40
  Speaker 11: against Japan, but against Germany and Italy. On the West Coast,
• 33:45
  Speaker 11: air raid preparations are well underway. It's just been reported
• 33:48
  Speaker 11: that all San Francisco radio stations are now off the
• 33:51
  Speaker 11: air under orders from federal authorities. CBS correspondent William Slocum
• 33:56
  Speaker 11: phoned that news from San Francisco just a minute ago.
• 33:59
  Speaker 11: And since we've been on the air, we have just
• 34:01
  Speaker 11: received a late bulletin from San Francisco. The News Chronicle
• 34:04
  Speaker 11: reports that 50 unidentified planes have been sighted flying from
• 34:08
  Speaker 11: the southwest towards San Francisco. It also reported that all
• 34:11
  Speaker 11: lights have been blacked out for 10 miles below the metropolis.
• 34:15
  Speaker 11: That is a bulletin that has just been handed to
• 34:17
  Speaker 11: me here in New York.
• 34:18
  Speaker 2: In the CBS newsroom.
• 34:20
  Speaker 11: Now, a similar order closing all radio stations in Spokane, Washington,
• 34:23
  Speaker 11: has been issued, and the Army has ordered the evacuation
• 34:26
  Speaker 11: of all women, children, aged and infirm persons from regions
• 34:29
  Speaker 11: around Fort MacArthur at San Pedro. In Washington tonight, the
• 34:34
  Speaker 11: White House announced that President Roosevelt will speak to the
• 34:36
  Speaker 11: country in a fireside chat at 10 o'clock tomorrow night,
• 34:39
  Speaker 11: Eastern Standard Time. The White House also said that lease
• 34:42
  Speaker 11: land aid to Britain and Russia will not be interrupted
• 34:45
  Speaker 11: by the outbreak of war in the Pacific. At the
• 34:47
  Speaker 11: same time, Presidential Secretary Stephen Early issued a statement denouncing Germany.
• 34:52
  Speaker 11: The Nazis, he said, have done everything possible to push
• 34:55
  Speaker 11: Japan into the conflict. So far, neither Germany nor Italy
• 34:59
  Speaker 11: has carried out the provisions of the Tripartite Axis Pact
• 35:02
  Speaker 11: and declared war against the United States. As you know,
• 35:05
  Speaker 11: the pact said that if any member of the Axis
• 35:07
  Speaker 11: Alliance becomes involved in war with a power that was
• 35:10
  Speaker 11: at peace when the pact was signed in 1940, the
• 35:12
  Speaker 11: other two members would go to the assistance of that member.
• 35:16
  Speaker 11: The propaganda statements out of Berlin would seem to confirm
• 35:18
  Speaker 11: the charge made by the White House tonight, though. At
• 35:21
  Speaker 11: least the Nazis say Japan kept them informed throughout the
• 35:23
  Speaker 11: preparations for attack in the Pacific. Earlier today, the Rome
• 35:26
  Speaker 11: Radio said that a state of war exists between the
• 35:28
  Speaker 11: United States and the Axis powers, but that claim has
• 35:31
  Speaker 11: not been officially confirmed so far in either Rome or Berlin.
• 35:35
  Speaker 11: And with the United States united this evening in one
• 35:37
  Speaker 11: single resolve to destroy Japanese militarism once and for all,
• 35:41
  Speaker 11: American recruiting officers report that they have been swamped with
• 35:43
  Speaker 11: men seeking to enlist. Thousands of men in every state
• 35:46
  Speaker 11: of the Union have volunteered, even demanded, that they be
• 35:49
  Speaker 11: allowed to serve. Before we leave you, we repeat again
• 35:52
  Speaker 11: this bulletin which has just come in from San Francisco.
• 35:55
  Speaker 11: Since we've been on the air, we've received this bulletin.
• 35:57
  Speaker 11: The News Chronicle in San Francisco reports that 50 unidentified
• 36:00
  Speaker 11: planes have been sighted flying from the southwest towards San Francisco.
• 36:04
  Speaker 11: It's also reported that all lights have been blacked out
• 36:07
  Speaker 11: for 10 miles below the metropolis and over an area
• 36:10
  Speaker 11: 35 miles along the coast. And that's the latest news
• 36:13
  Speaker 11: on the Pacific War.
• 36:15
  Speaker 16: Columbia will interrupt its regularly scheduled programs to bring you
• 36:18
  Speaker 16: the latest news. Our next scheduled news broadcast will be
• 36:22
  Speaker 16: at 10 o'clock. And now we return you to the
• 36:24
  Speaker 16: Lux Radio Theater in Hollywood.
• 36:33
  Speaker 4: We continue with the second act of The Doctor Takes
• 36:36
  Speaker 4: a Wife. June is now aware that Tim pretended to
• 36:43
  Speaker 4: be married only because his professorship was at stake. Tim
• 36:47
  Speaker 4: has explained the situation to his fiancée, Marilyn, and secured
• 36:50
  Speaker 4: a complete pardon. For a while, things have been looking
• 36:53
  Speaker 4: very rosy, but now Tim is again at the boiling point.
• 37:00
  Speaker 2: All right, now this time you've gone too far. Who
• 37:02
  Speaker 2: had this picture printed in the paper?
• 37:04
  Speaker 6: Johnny, you promised me you wouldn't.
• 37:05
  Speaker 9: Don't blame me. Charlie must have done it.
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: Look at that. I've never had my arms around her
• 37:08
  Speaker 2: in my life. I know, old man.
• 37:10
  Speaker 9: It's what they call a composite photograph. They do it
• 37:12
  Speaker 9: by putting.
• 37:12
  Speaker 2: I don't care how they do it. You realize it
• 37:14
  Speaker 2: took me three solid hours to explain this to Marilyn?
• 37:17
  Speaker 5: Marilyn, Marilyn.
• 37:18
  Speaker 6: Would you mind not mentioning her name more than every
• 37:20
  Speaker 6: other breath?
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: I'll mention the name of my fiancée as often as
• 37:24
  Speaker 2: I please. You resent any woman who's feminine. You resent
• 37:28
  Speaker 2: any woman who doesn't smoke long black cigars and isn't
• 37:31
  Speaker 2: general manager of a couple of railroads.
• 37:32
  Speaker 9: No, no, wait a minute, kids.
• 37:34
  Speaker 2: Furthermore, you've no right to say those things. You've never
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: even met Marilyn.
• 37:37
  Speaker 6: Well, she's going to marry you. That gives me a
• 37:39
  Speaker 6: rough idea.
• 37:39
  Speaker 2: Now, look, I've got an idea. I can count on
• 37:42
  Speaker 2: one thing. At least she won't wisecrack through our honeymoon.
• 37:45
  Speaker 6: Just to make sure, better not wear those green pajamas
• 37:47
  Speaker 6: you've got hanging in the closet. What?
• 37:49
  Speaker 10: Hello there. Now, don't tell me you two are having
• 37:52
  Speaker 10: another quarrel.
• 37:53
  Speaker 2: Well, she... Mr.
• 37:54
  Speaker 10: Pierce, are you here again? Yes, sir. Mr. Pierce, did
• 37:58
  Speaker 10: you ever study chemistry?
• 38:00
  Speaker 9: No, no, sir.
• 38:00
  Speaker 15: Well, if you had, you'd know that sometimes two elements
• 38:03
  Speaker 15: can be placed together successfully. But when a third element
• 38:06
  Speaker 15: known as a catalytic agent is added, there is frequently
• 38:09
  Speaker 15: an explosion.
• 38:10
  Speaker 6: Pop, you can rule him out. He's only an innocent bystander.
• 38:13
  Speaker 12: Well, no matter.
• 38:14
  Speaker 15: Tim, I just dropped by to give you a little advice.
• 38:17
  Speaker 15: When you talk to Burkhart this afternoon, make it clear
• 38:19
  Speaker 15: that you don't want him to use any of your
• 38:21
  Speaker 15: research in his new book.
• 38:23
  Speaker 2: Well, thanks, Dad. I appreciate the advice, but after all, Burkhart's... June,
• 38:26
  Speaker 2: you'll be along.
• 38:27
  Speaker 10: See that Tim doesn't get too generous.
• 38:28
  Speaker 6: Oh, well, I don't think I'm going with him.
• 38:30
  Speaker 2: Oh, yes, dear. I forgot to tell you that Burkhart's
• 38:33
  Speaker 2: invited us for the weekend.
• 38:35
  Speaker 4: You.
• 38:35
  Speaker 2: We'll be leaving in a few minutes. You'd better start packing, dear.
• 38:39
  Speaker 10: It'll be an interesting weekend.
• 38:40
  Speaker 6: Oh, yes, I'm sure.
• 38:42
  Speaker 15: Yes, they have a 15-year-old daughter. She's just written a
• 38:45
  Speaker 15: novel and she's dying to read it to you. Well,
• 38:47
  Speaker 15: I won't hold you up. It's a good seven hours drive.
• 38:50
  Speaker 6: Goodbye.
• 38:51
  Speaker 2: Bye, Dad. I'm sorry, I forgot to mention it.
• 38:54
  Speaker 6: That's all right. I'm not going.
• 38:55
  Speaker 9: Oh, you've got to go. That father of his will
• 38:57
  Speaker 9: think you're staying behind because of me.
• 38:58
  Speaker 6: But I was going to finish the book over the weekend.
• 39:01
  Speaker 9: Well, you can work up there, darling. It's probably an
• 39:03
  Speaker 9: idyllic setting. The forest primeval, the winding streams.
• 39:05
  Speaker 6: And a babbling 15-year-old reading me an enchanting little epic
• 39:09
  Speaker 6: called Sink or Swim or Sarah Goes Out for Basketball. Oh, no, gentlemen,
• 39:13
  Speaker 6: I'm not going.
• 39:14
  Speaker 3: Sink or Swim.
• 39:20
  Speaker 6: Just to keep the record straight, I'm doing this for Papa,
• 39:23
  Speaker 6: not for you.
• 39:24
  Speaker 2: Okay, okay.
• 39:25
  Speaker 6: I think it's just about the most inconsiderate... Is that
• 39:27
  Speaker 6: a cop after me?
• 39:27
  Speaker 2: Why, yes. What have I done?
• 39:30
  Speaker 6: Whatever it is, it can't be for speeding unless the
• 39:32
  Speaker 6: limit is 12 miles an hour.
• 39:33
  Speaker 2: Officer, you're making a mistake. I was only.
• 39:36
  Speaker 10: Okay, no ticket.
• 39:37
  Speaker 2: I spotted the M.D. license on the car. You a doctor?
• 39:39
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 39:39
  Speaker 10: Well, come on.
• 39:40
  Speaker 2: There's an emergency case. Follow me.
• 39:41
  Speaker 12: How soon will it be, doctor?
• 39:48
  Speaker 2: The baby won't be along for a while yet.
• 39:50
  Speaker 12: It's mighty kind of you to put yourself out this way,
• 39:52
  Speaker 12: but I'm sure glad you're here. The missus been having
• 39:54
  Speaker 12: a lot more trouble than usual.
• 39:56
  Speaker 2: Oh, most of the time it just seems that way.
• 39:58
  Speaker 2: I think she'll get along all right. Can you get
• 40:00
  Speaker 2: me some hot water, Mr.
• 40:01
  Speaker 6: Martin?
• 40:02
  Speaker 12: Well, I'm kind of laid up, Doc, my foot. Billy
• 40:04
  Speaker 12: here's been doing some of the work.
• 40:06
  Speaker 5: Dad's had his foot banged up for almost a week now.
• 40:09
  Speaker 2: He has? Well, let me see it. What's wrong with it?
• 40:11
  Speaker 12: Sort of twisted it.
• 40:13
  Speaker 2: Hmm, sort of twisted. Yes, maybe you sort of broke it.
• 40:18
  Speaker 2: I'll take a look at that while I'm here. Where's
• 40:20
  Speaker 2: your nearest neighbor?
• 40:21
  Speaker 12: Mrs. Sawyer, about a mile down the road.
• 40:23
  Speaker 2: We'll have to get her.
• 40:24
  Speaker 6: Is it anything serious?
• 40:26
  Speaker 2: Oh, just a baby and a broken ankle. Say, there's
• 40:29
  Speaker 2: a Mrs. Sawyer down the road. Billy here will show
• 40:31
  Speaker 2: you where she lives. Would you mind driving down and
• 40:33
  Speaker 2: getting her? I may need some help. I'd better run
• 40:36
  Speaker 2: upstairs now. Make it snappy, will you?
• 40:38
  Speaker 10: Hey, didn't you hear the doc?
• 40:40
  Speaker 6: What does Pastor think is wrong with me? Huh, miss?
• 40:43
  Speaker 6: I said, what's wrong with me? I can help. Come on, Billy,
• 40:45
  Speaker 6: show me where the stove is. Run up and tell
• 40:48
  Speaker 6: the doctor the water's boiling, will you? Okay. Mr. Martin,
• 40:51
  Speaker 6: what does the doctor want to use for rags?
• 40:52
  Speaker 12: Can't you use those over there, miss?
• 40:54
  Speaker 6: Well, I think you'll want clean ones. This'll do.
• 40:57
  Speaker 12: You're not going to tear up that dress.
• 40:59
  Speaker 6: Well, that's all right. Extra one I brought along.
• 41:01
  Speaker 2: Everything all right down here? Where's Mrs. Sawyer? Couldn't she come?
• 41:05
  Speaker 6: I don't know. I didn't ask her.
• 41:08
  Speaker 17: Oh.
• 41:09
  Speaker 2: Say, that's a pretty nice sterilizer there for a homemade job.
• 41:13
  Speaker 2: Rig it up yourself?
• 41:14
  Speaker 6: Mm-hmm.
• 41:16
  Speaker 2: That's your new dress you're tearing out.
• 41:17
  Speaker 6: You made me look too feminine.
• 41:19
  Speaker 12: How's your missus, doctor?
• 41:20
  Speaker 2: Almost any time now. Doc!
• 41:22
  Speaker 6: Hey, Doc!
• 41:23
  Speaker 5: Ma says for you to come right away!
• 41:24
  Speaker 2: All right, son, all right. You better get some more
• 41:27
  Speaker 2: water at the pump. I'll be needing.
• 41:34
  Speaker 7: It.
• 41:34
  Speaker 2: Okay, you can stop pumping now. You're about ready to drop,
• 41:38
  Speaker 2: aren't you?
• 41:39
  Speaker 6: Is the baby here?
• 41:41
  Speaker 2: Yep, safe and sound.
• 41:43
  Speaker 6: Another president?
• 41:45
  Speaker 2: No, I'm afraid it's another career woman. I never heard
• 41:47
  Speaker 2: such kicking and screaming.
• 41:48
  Speaker 6: Hey, Doc, it's an Indian.
• 41:50
  Speaker 5: It's all red.
• 41:53
  Speaker 2: Well, stop worrying, son. It's all right. Well, I guess
• 41:56
  Speaker 2: it's too late to go to the Burkharts.
• 41:58
  Speaker 6: Oh, that's too bad. You'll miss your talk with him.
• 42:00
  Speaker 2: Yes, and you'll miss hearing Sarah goes out for basketball.
• 42:05
  Speaker 6: How do you feel? You must be pretty exhausted.
• 42:07
  Speaker 2: Oh, I was just a little scared. That's the first
• 42:10
  Speaker 2: baby since I was an intern.
• 42:12
  Speaker 6: Well, with that broken field running you did between the
• 42:14
  Speaker 6: baby and the ankle, you looked awfully good from where
• 42:17
  Speaker 6: I sat.
• 42:17
  Speaker 12: Thank you.
• 42:19
  Speaker 2: So did you.
• 42:20
  Speaker 6: Thank you.
• 42:22
  Speaker 2: You know, sometimes it's nice to have a career woman
• 42:25
  Speaker 2: around the house. Really? Well, I mean for emergencies.
• 42:29
  Speaker 12: Oh.
• 42:31
  Speaker 6: Well, if you're finished here, let's go.
• 42:34
  Speaker 2: What's the big rush?
• 42:35
  Speaker 6: The emergency's over, isn't it? And I've got a book
• 42:38
  Speaker 6: to finish, so I can leave for Reno.
• 42:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's right. Let's go.
• 42:44
  Speaker 3: We pause now.
• 42:51
  Speaker 17: For station identification. This is the Columbia Broadcasting System. After
• 43:13
  Speaker 17: a brief intermission, Mr. DeMille and Melvin Douglas and Virginia
• 43:16
  Speaker 17: Bruce will bring us Act Three of The Doctor Takes
• 43:18
  Speaker 17: a Wife. Meantime, let's listen in, first in a busy office.
• 43:23
  Speaker 7: Her application can go on file.
• 43:27
  Speaker 6: She's not the type of girl for this office.
• 43:35
  Speaker 2: Now, let's look in at a holiday dance.
• 43:38
  Speaker 6: I wish the boys would ask Ruth to dance. She's
• 43:40
  Speaker 6: feeling left out.
• 43:45
  Speaker 2: And last, in a home around the corner.
• 43:50
  Speaker 6: Hello? Oh, hello, Mary. Who did you say? Oh, my dear,
• 43:55
  Speaker 6: don't let's have her on the committee.
• 43:57
  Speaker 17: We all know people like these who aren't as popular
• 44:00
  Speaker 17: or successful as they might be. And you know, it
• 44:02
  Speaker 17: seems too bad when just a word or two could
• 44:05
  Speaker 17: straighten things out.
• 44:05
  Speaker 6: Well, that sort of word or two is awfully hard
• 44:07
  Speaker 6: to say, though. No one likes to criticize another person
• 44:11
  Speaker 6: for lack of daintiness. But the trouble is, We ourselves
• 44:15
  Speaker 6: can't tell when we offend. That's why it's so important
• 44:18
  Speaker 6: to take particular care with the things we wear. Under
• 44:21
  Speaker 6: things especially should be lux every day. Dresses, blouses, and
• 44:25
  Speaker 6: sweaters often. It's easy to do this too because new
• 44:29
  Speaker 6: quick lux is so fast. Takes away every trace of
• 44:32
  Speaker 6: perspiration so quickly. Then you're sure of freshness. Sure too
• 44:37
  Speaker 6: of keeping dainty things new looking longer. Lux is gentle.
• 44:41
  Speaker 6: Safe for everything safe in water. With girls who have
• 44:45
  Speaker 6: a daily luxe habit, here's what happens in offices. I'll
• 44:50
  Speaker 6: keep her application here on my desk. She's just the
• 44:53
  Speaker 6: type we want. And at holiday dances. Say, look at
• 45:02
  Speaker 6: the rush Ruth's getting. My, she's popular. And in homes. Hello? Oh, hello, Mary. Mary?
• 45:14
  Speaker 6: Who'd you say?
• 45:15
  Speaker 5: Why, of course we want.
• 45:17
  Speaker 6: Her on the committee.
• 45:19
  Speaker 17: Yes, words like that are pleasant to hear. And luxe
• 45:22
  Speaker 17: girls hear them all the time. Remember, without daintiness, no
• 45:26
  Speaker 17: other charm counts. So, don't take chances. Use new quick
• 45:30
  Speaker 17: luxe each day. Now, our producer, Mr.
• 45:34
  Speaker 2: DeMille. The curtain rises on the third act of The
• 45:36
  Speaker 2: Doctor Takes a Wife.
• 45:37
  Speaker 3: The Doctor Takes.
• 45:40
  Speaker 4: A Wife June's new book has been finished and published
• 45:45
  Speaker 4: and overnight heads the bestseller list. There's no longer any
• 45:48
  Speaker 4: reason to keep up the pretense of a marriage. So
• 45:51
  Speaker 4: Tim and June have packed their belongings and are ready
• 45:54
  Speaker 4: to move out of the apartment.
• 45:57
  Speaker 2: Well, I guess that's everything. I'll send someone around to
• 46:00
  Speaker 2: pick up these books. I take them now, but we're
• 46:03
  Speaker 2: driving up to Marilyn's uncle's for the weekend.
• 46:05
  Speaker 6: That's all right.
• 46:07
  Speaker 2: I'm sorry Marilyn insisted on you leaving for Reno tonight.
• 46:11
  Speaker 6: No, I don't blame her. I'd have done the same thing.
• 46:14
  Speaker 6: I think she's been pretty decent about the whole thing.
• 46:16
  Speaker 6: And that goes for you, Doc. Without a husband, the
• 46:20
  Speaker 6: book never would have been written.
• 46:22
  Speaker 2: Without a wife, I'd never have been made a professor.
• 46:25
  Speaker 6: Well, we've spoken our little pieces, so goodbye. Take good
• 46:32
  Speaker 6: care of Chester.
• 46:33
  Speaker 2: Goodbye. I hope you and John Pierce will be very happy.
• 46:38
  Speaker 6: Thanks. And that goes for you and Marilyn. Thanks.
• 46:43
  Speaker 2: Goodbye. Oh, I forgot to tell you. When we first
• 46:47
  Speaker 2: started this thing, I said I wanted you to take
• 46:49
  Speaker 2: the blame for the divorce. I really didn't mean that.
• 46:52
  Speaker 2: I'd rather you blame it on me.
• 46:53
  Speaker 6: I will not. A bargain's a bargain.
• 46:55
  Speaker 2: But it wouldn't look good for you. The other way's simpler.
• 46:57
  Speaker 6: No, I won't do it.
• 46:58
  Speaker 2: Wait a minute. Look at these thumbs. They're very short.
• 47:03
  Speaker 2: I'll just say it was cruelty or something. Tell them
• 47:06
  Speaker 2: I corrected papers in bed. Goodbye, Joan.
• 47:10
  Speaker 6: Goodbye, Timothy.
• 47:13
  Speaker 9: Well, hello there, old man.
• 47:15
  Speaker 10: Hello.
• 47:16
  Speaker 9: Microscopes all packed?
• 47:17
  Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.
• 47:18
  Speaker 9: Well, our little marital conspiracy turned out beautifully for all
• 47:20
  Speaker 9: of us.
• 47:21
  Speaker 2: Nobody the wiser.
• 47:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 47:23
  Speaker 2: You know, Pierce, you're a pretty lucky fellow.
• 47:25
  Speaker 9: Yes, the book's selling like the proverbial hotcakes.
• 47:28
  Speaker 2: I wasn't talking about the book.
• 47:29
  Speaker 6: Hmm?
• 47:30
  Speaker 9: Oh, yes, June's a wonderful woman. Well, bye, Professor.
• 47:33
  Speaker 2: So long.
• 47:36
  Speaker 10: Hello.
• 47:37
  Speaker 9: Does Freda Schultz live here?
• 47:39
  Speaker 6: You got the wrong.
• 47:41
  Speaker 2: Oh.
• 47:41
  Speaker 6: Hello, Johnny.
• 47:42
  Speaker 9: Here are the railroad tickets, honey. I thought it would
• 47:44
  Speaker 9: be best to use another name.
• 47:45
  Speaker 2: How do you like it?
• 47:46
  Speaker 6: Do I look like Freda Schultz to you?
• 47:48
  Speaker 2: Let's see. A little.
• 47:50
  Speaker 9: Don't you see if they find June Cameron in Reno,
• 47:52
  Speaker 9: it'll kill the book. This way we can sell it
• 47:53
  Speaker 9: right up to the day you announce the divorce.
• 47:55
  Speaker 6: You've figured out everything, haven't you, Johnny?
• 47:57
  Speaker 9: Darling, I'm a very happy man. I just added it
• 48:00
  Speaker 9: all up. In six weeks we can sell 80,000 copies.
• 48:03
  Speaker 10: Wow.
• 48:04
  Speaker 9: What's the matter?
• 48:05
  Speaker 6: Nothing.
• 48:05
  Speaker 9: Oh, there must be something.
• 48:06
  Speaker 6: I said nothing's the matter.
• 48:08
  Speaker 9: I'll take it.
• 48:09
  Speaker 12: Good morning.
• 48:10
  Speaker 13: I'm from the Morning Express. I'd like to see Miss Cameron.
• 48:12
  Speaker 9: Oh, no interviews today, old man. If you'll phone.
• 48:14
  Speaker 13: I think she'll see me. Hiya, Miss Cameron.
• 48:17
  Speaker 6: What do you want?
• 48:18
  Speaker 13: Didn't you say, Miss Cameron, that you were married in Greenwich?
• 48:20
  Speaker 6: Why, yes. Strange.
• 48:21
  Speaker 8: I've just been talking to the license bureau up there,
• 48:23
  Speaker 8: and they've got no record of it.
• 48:25
  Speaker 6: Well, you see, it wasn't in Greenwich proper. It was
• 48:27
  Speaker 6: a little outside.
• 48:28
  Speaker 9: Yeah, it was a little place by the fork in
• 48:30
  Speaker 9: the road.
• 48:30
  Speaker 13: Look, let's stop kidding around. I followed a hunch and
• 48:32
  Speaker 13: checked up. I happen to know you were never married.
• 48:35
  Speaker 9: How dare you make such a statement?
• 48:36
  Speaker 13: If I'm wrong, show me the certificate.
• 48:38
  Speaker 6: Well, you see, it's in.
• 48:39
  Speaker 9: It's in my safety deposit box.
• 48:40
  Speaker 13: Look, you needed that kind of publicity for the book.
• 48:43
  Speaker 8: I hate to be the guy to kill the golden goose,
• 48:45
  Speaker 8: but my job is to get news, and this.
• 48:47
  Speaker 9: Is a great story.
• 48:47
  Speaker 6: But you can't print it. It's not true.
• 48:50
  Speaker 8: All right, I'll give you a break. We don't go
• 48:51
  Speaker 8: to press until midnight. You can show me you're married
• 48:54
  Speaker 8: before then, I'll kill the story. That's a real break
• 48:56
  Speaker 8: for you.
• 48:58
  Speaker 9: You can't print that. Think what it'll do to the book.
• 49:00
  Speaker 6: Think what it'll do to Tim. They'll throw him out
• 49:01
  Speaker 6: of his job.
• 49:02
  Speaker 2: Who cares?
• 49:02
  Speaker 6: I care. If this comes out, he won't be able
• 49:04
  Speaker 6: to get a job as a horse doctor. After he's
• 49:07
  Speaker 6: been so decent with us, you take that selfish.
• 49:09
  Speaker 9: I didn't mean it that way. It's just that the
• 49:10
  Speaker 9: copies are already printed.
• 49:12
  Speaker 6: Your affection for me is touching. The fact that the
• 49:14
  Speaker 6: tabloids will make me look like a combination of Madame
• 49:17
  Speaker 6: Du Barry and Cleopatra doesn't make the slightest difference to you.
• 49:20
  Speaker 12: Oh, that's not it, June.
• 49:20
  Speaker 9: The prophets... Prophets.
• 49:21
  Speaker 6: They're important, not people. Here's the future of a really
• 49:24
  Speaker 6: great man at stake, and you're worrying about carnations for
• 49:27
  Speaker 6: your buttonhole.
• 49:28
  Speaker 9: Are you in love with this bumpkin?
• 49:29
  Speaker 6: Yes, I am in love with him. What do you
• 49:32
  Speaker 6: think of that?
• 49:32
  Speaker 3: THE END.
• 49:42
  Speaker 5: All right, everybody, come and get it. Come on, cookie, dinner.
• 49:45
  Speaker 2: Marilyn, I wish you wouldn't call me cookie. It sounds silly.
• 49:49
  Speaker 6: Silly?
• 49:50
  Speaker 5: But you've always been my cookie.
• 49:52
  Speaker 2: I know, but in front of other people.
• 49:53
  Speaker 5: All right, old grouchy. Now, come on, and after dinner,
• 49:56
  Speaker 5: you're going to stand next to me when I make
• 49:57
  Speaker 5: my big speech.
• 49:58
  Speaker 2: Speech? What speech?
• 49:59
  Speaker 5: I'm going to announce our engagement.
• 50:00
  Speaker 2: You can't do that. We're not divorced yet.
• 50:03
  Speaker 5: Well, I'll tell them you're going to be.
• 50:05
  Speaker 2: But if that gets out, it'll ruin her book.
• 50:07
  Speaker 5: I don't care. I've risked our happiness long enough because
• 50:10
  Speaker 5: of her book.
• 50:11
  Speaker 6: Pardon, Miss Thomas. There's someone at the door who wants
• 50:13
  Speaker 6: to see you.
• 50:13
  Speaker 5: Now, cookie, you think that over.
• 50:19
  Speaker 2: It's you.
• 50:20
  Speaker 5: What do you want here?
• 50:21
  Speaker 6: I've got to see Tim.
• 50:22
  Speaker 5: If you're coming here trying to make trouble.
• 50:24
  Speaker 6: This is important.
• 50:25
  Speaker 2: Where is he?
• 50:25
  Speaker 5: Please go away. You'll spoil everything. This is our engagement party.
• 50:28
  Speaker 6: Engagement? But you promised to wait till I.
• 50:31
  Speaker 5: I think we've done more than enough for you.
• 50:32
  Speaker 6: But this is important to Tim's career.
• 50:34
  Speaker 5: I feel that I'm equally important to it. Get out.
• 50:38
  Speaker 6: Ah, southern hospitality.
• 50:41
  Speaker 3: Marilyn, what about the big surprise?
• 50:45
  Speaker 6: Come on, Marilyn, what's it all about?
• 50:47
  Speaker 2: You want to hear your big surprise, Marilyn?
• 50:48
  Speaker 5: All right, everybody, I'll tell you right now.
• 50:50
  Speaker 10: Come on, Tim.
• 50:51
  Speaker 2: Wait, wait, Marilyn, you can't do this.
• 50:53
  Speaker 5: Quiet, everybody, quiet. Now for the big surprise. I want
• 50:56
  Speaker 5: you all.
• 50:57
  Speaker 9: But isn't that Tim's wife?
• 50:57
  Speaker 5: Look, here comes June Cameron.
• 50:59
  Speaker 6: What's she doing here? Marilyn, my dear. Hello, Tim, darling.
• 51:03
  Speaker 6: I'm so sorry to be.
• 51:03
  Speaker 13: Late, Marilyn.
• 51:04
  Speaker 5: But you.
• 51:05
  Speaker 6: Go right ahead with what you were doing. I'll just
• 51:07
  Speaker 6: sit in a corner and go on with my knitting.
• 51:09
  Speaker 2: Well, dear, I'd like you to meet all the folks.
• 51:12
  Speaker 6: Oh, don't bother. We'll all get to know each other.
• 51:14
  Speaker 5: I have an announcement to make.
• 51:15
  Speaker 6: Quiet, everyone.
• 51:17
  Speaker 10: Why, Mrs.
• 51:18
  Speaker 6: Sterling, is that for you?
• 51:20
  Speaker 10: Yes.
• 51:21
  Speaker 6: Quiet. It looks like a baby's booty.
• 51:24
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 51:25
  Speaker 6: You didn't mind if I brought my knitting along, did you?
• 51:29
  Speaker 6: You know how these things are. Is it for you
• 51:33
  Speaker 6: and Tim? Of course.
• 51:36
  Speaker 10: Who else?
• 51:37
  Speaker 12: Mrs.
• 51:38
  Speaker 6: Sterling's going to have a baby. No, she's getting her
• 51:41
  Speaker 6: new baby.
• 51:42
  Speaker 5: You can't do this to me. I know you're not married.
• 51:45
  Speaker 6: Oh, how can you.
• 51:48
  Speaker 5: She's fainted!
• 51:51
  Speaker 6: Let her face!
• 51:52
  Speaker 5: Oh, this whole thing's a frame-up!
• 51:54
  Speaker 2: Marilyn, I don't know anything about this, I swear!
• 51:57
  Speaker 5: I'll give you five minutes to get out of here.
• 51:59
  Speaker 2: Dora?
• 52:00
  Speaker 5: Yes, Miss Thomas? You'll find Dr. Sterling's bags in the
• 52:02
  Speaker 5: room near the stairs.
• 52:03
  Speaker 6: He's leaving now.
• 52:05
  Speaker 5: Tomorrow, have the room fumigated!
• 52:17
  Speaker 6: And so the reporter just followed his hunch and found
• 52:20
  Speaker 6: out we really weren't married. That's why I came to
• 52:22
  Speaker 6: the party.
• 52:22
  Speaker 2: Uh-huh.
• 52:23
  Speaker 6: Well, what are you going to do about it?
• 52:25
  Speaker 2: Sure, what is there to do? Congratulations for the cutest
• 52:28
  Speaker 2: trick of the week.
• 52:29
  Speaker 6: Well, believe me, I didn't plan it. But when she
• 52:31
  Speaker 6: told me she was going to announce your engagement, the
• 52:34
  Speaker 6: cat in me crept out.
• 52:35
  Speaker 2: Uh-huh. Where can I drop you?
• 52:38
  Speaker 6: Let me off at the first hotel.
• 52:40
  Speaker 2: I don't know where it'd be around here.
• 52:41
  Speaker 6: You can ask in that gas station.
• 52:43
  Speaker 2: That's what I intended doing.
• 52:44
  Speaker 6: All right, I just suggested it.
• 52:47
  Speaker 10: Nice night. Fill her up?
• 52:48
  Speaker 2: No, thanks.
• 52:49
  Speaker 6: Where's the nearest hotel?
• 52:51
  Speaker 10: You're looking at it. Sam Appleby Spotless Auto Court. Nice, clean,
• 52:55
  Speaker 10: soft beds. $ 1. 50 and up.
• 52:58
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 52:59
  Speaker 6: Will you take my bag?
• 53:00
  Speaker 2: Yes, ma'am.
• 53:01
  Speaker 6: Well, goodbye.
• 53:05
  Speaker 2: Goodbye.
• 53:05
  Speaker 10: This way, ma'am. Cabin's right down here. Thanks. Certainly is
• 53:11
  Speaker 10: a fine night, isn't it?
• 53:12
  Speaker 6: Yes, isn't it?
• 53:14
  Speaker 10: Well, this is your cabin. Go right in.
• 53:18
  Speaker 6: You can put my bag down there. Anywhere.
• 53:20
  Speaker 2: All righty.
• 53:21
  Speaker 10: Now, if there's anything you want, just give me a call.
• 53:24
  Speaker 10: I'll be up at the gas station.
• 53:26
  Speaker 6: Thanks.
• 53:27
  Speaker 10: Good night.
• 53:37
  Speaker 11: Hey!
• 53:38
  Speaker 6: Who is it?
• 53:40
  Speaker 10: Me, Pastor.
• 53:42
  Speaker 2: Open the window.
• 53:43
  Speaker 5: Go away.
• 53:45
  Speaker 2: June, I want to talk to you.
• 53:47
  Speaker 6: Go away.
• 53:47
  Speaker 2: Don't be silly. Let me in.
• 53:49
  Speaker 6: No.
• 53:49
  Speaker 10: Hey, look.
• 53:50
  Speaker 2: You see those short thumbs? That means I'm stubborn. Let
• 53:54
  Speaker 2: me in.
• 53:54
  Speaker 6: Oh, now listen, Tim.
• 53:56
  Speaker 2: You listen. June, I promised the people in the apartment
• 54:02
  Speaker 2: next door that we'd play bridge with them next Thursday.
• 54:06
  Speaker 2: Can you make it?
• 54:08
  Speaker 6: Oh, Tim, I think so. Tim, but I'm a career woman.
• 54:13
  Speaker 6: I'm no good except.
• 54:14
  Speaker 2: That's right, but you see, this is an emergency.
• 54:17
  Speaker 6: We'd like to send a wire, please, to the Morning Express.
• 54:27
  Speaker 6: The message, please? At home, Bungalow 5, Sam Appleby, spotless autocourt.
• 54:32
  Speaker 6: Marriage certificate number Y87642. Best regards.
• 54:37
  Speaker 2: And sign it, Dr. and Mrs. Timothy Sterling. Mr.
• 54:55
  Speaker 17: DeMille and our stars return to the microphone in just
• 54:57
  Speaker 17: a moment. Now, here's the kind of thing that women
• 55:02
  Speaker 17: say when they change from ordinary wash day soaps to
• 55:05
  Speaker 17: new quick luxe for their dishes.
• 55:07
  Speaker 6: Say, this new quick luxe is wonderful. I just can't
• 55:11
  Speaker 6: believe I need so little to get a whole big
• 55:14
  Speaker 6: dish pan full of suds.
• 55:16
  Speaker 2: It's true, though.
• 55:17
  Speaker 17: Thrifty new quick luxe gives you more suds ounce for ounce,
• 55:21
  Speaker 17: even in hard water. than any of ten other popular
• 55:24
  Speaker 17: soaps by actual laboratory tests. From two to four times
• 55:29
  Speaker 17: as much suds as some of those soaps, and more
• 55:32
  Speaker 17: than any of them. But that's not all. You're due
• 55:35
  Speaker 17: for a lot of pleasant surprises. For not only do
• 55:38
  Speaker 17: you get more suds with Lux, but you get them
• 55:41
  Speaker 17: so fast. Why, they start piling up the second you
• 55:44
  Speaker 17: turn on the water. And here's the pleasantest thing of all.
• 55:48
  Speaker 17: Those rich, quick suds are so kind to your hands.
• 55:52
  Speaker 17: That has been proved in the famous one-hand tests. You see,
• 55:56
  Speaker 17: there's no harmful alkali in gentle new quick lux to
• 55:59
  Speaker 17: roughen or redden your skin. No harsh red dishpan hands
• 56:04
  Speaker 17: for you. Not when you stick to lux flakes for
• 56:06
  Speaker 17: your dishes. You try lux and see. Start right in
• 56:10
  Speaker 17: tomorrow and prove these things for yourself. There's a big
• 56:14
  Speaker 17: box of new quick lux waiting for you at your grocers.
• 56:17
  Speaker 17: It comes in the same familiar package and doesn't cost
• 56:20
  Speaker 17: you a penny more.
• 56:23
  Speaker 2: Now, here's Mr. DeMille with our stars.
• 56:26
  Speaker 4: The doctor took a wife, but we've persuaded him to
• 56:28
  Speaker 4: bring her back. So, Melvin Douglas and Virginia Bruce join
• 56:32
  Speaker 4: us again at this microphone.
• 56:33
  Speaker 2: Thank you, CB. Well, Virginia, I guess we've done it again.
• 56:36
  Speaker 6: Certainly looks like it, Mel. Now we'll have to go
• 56:39
  Speaker 6: after Bill Powell and Myrna Lloyd's wrecking.
• 56:42
  Speaker 2: I don't want to seem over-curious, but what's this all about? Well,
• 56:46
  Speaker 2: Virginia and I just got married again. In the play,
• 56:48
  Speaker 2: I mean.
• 56:49
  Speaker 6: And it's happened three or four times before on the screen.
• 56:52
  Speaker 2: So, in 1945, if our luck holds, we hope to
• 56:55
  Speaker 2: pass Bill and Myrna. That's pretty ambitious, Mel. They've held
• 56:59
  Speaker 2: the championship for years.
• 57:00
  Speaker 6: We just want to know whose side you're on, Mr. DeMille.
• 57:02
  Speaker 2: Mm-hmm. If you aren't Forrest, you're a Guinness.
• 57:05
  Speaker 4: Now, if you really want to know where I stand,
• 57:08
  Speaker 4: I'm directly behind the eight ball.
• 57:10
  Speaker 6: Well, in the meantime, why don't you tell us about
• 57:12
  Speaker 6: next week's play?
• 57:13
