{Speaker 1} Freshly painted, fresh air circulates through every six minutes
[00:00:16]
It's a lovely place, but I don't like it.
[00:00:20]
We would like you to stop by some time and take a look
[00:00:25]
and I'm sure that your opinion would be other than mine, I kind of stand alone in this.
[00:00:30]
Next of all, I'd like to remind you, too, that Phil Walker appears with his incomparable
[00:00:35]
Switzerland in just two weeks. In this, you will see an exciting
[00:00:40]
episode where he crosses the Swiss Alps in a balloon.
[00:00:43]
Now, this was written up recently in National Geographic
[00:00:46]
and we might say that Phil Walker rose to this high adventure.
[00:00:50]
(clears throat)
[00:00:55]
I didn't have anything prepared to say tonight, you see. (chuckles)
[00:01:00]
But, uh, also, as you know, Switzerland is an extremely popular box office
[00:01:05]
subject, and the advance sales have been tremendous, so if you have any friends who
[00:01:10]
are interested, we urge you to suggest to them to get their tickets as soon as possible.
[00:01:15]
Some of you have been coming to World Cavalcade for a great number of years
[00:01:19]
and you know that we have certain speakers appear year after year after year,
[00:01:24]
and these are the top notch men in the field.
[00:01:27]
You've come to know them personally, recognize their trademarks.
[00:01:30]
However, World Cavalcade does constantly
[00:01:35]
bring to you new personalities. I don't know of any
[00:01:38]
year in the past seven that we haven't introduced at least one new personality.
[00:01:43]
This year we have three: two this evening and one next March.
[00:01:47]
Next year we have two, and I'm sure that you will enjoy them
[00:01:51}
a great deal. And I want to point out that we keep vigilant and keep an eye
[00:01:55]
out for these people that we believe come up to World
[00:02:00]
Cavalcade standards. The two young ladies you'll see this evening are presenting
[00:02:05]
their second film. This is the second film they have ever made.
[00:02:09]
However, don't mistake me, they've made a lot of films for commercial organizations,
[00:02:13]
and we think this is pretty unusual that they have achieved
[00:02:17]
such eminence and distinction throughout the United States and Canada.
[00:02:21]
Mrs. Saunders caught their show up in Canada a couple of years ago
[00:02:25]
and said they are good, and we must have them. I won't tell you too much
[00:02:30]
about them, because they have a very cute little introduction about themselves. All I'll say
[00:02:35]
is that Lisa Chickering is part of the Chickering piano family, and
[00:02:40]
Jeanne Porterfield is part of the Porterfield family that operated the Barter Theatre in the east--
