Breakdown of Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Arrival and Ambition (00:01–05:30)

• Miss Moffat arrives in the Welsh mining village of Glencarno to find her new home prepared by locals.
• She quickly reveals her mission: to start a school for local children, most of whom begin arduous labor in the mines by age 12.
  • "Children? Here they are children only until they are 12. Then they go to work in the coal mine and in one week they are old men." — Miss Moffat (03:33)
• Miss Moffat faces skepticism, class prejudice, and practical obstacles, including local authorities and a resistant squire.

2. Community Resistance and Successes (07:26–11:00)

• Local villagers and the squire (Herbert Winslow) object to Miss Moffat’s school, issuing orders to block barn renovations and showing open hostility.
• Miss Moffat, undeterred, formulates plans to compensate families for sending their children to school instead of the mines.
  • "I'm going to start a school in that barn next door. And you are going to help me." — Miss Moffat (03:41)
• Despite resistance, small victories build: the school starts, some children attend, and her persistence earns the reluctant respect of certain villagers.

3. Introducing Morgan Evans (14:22–17:56)

• Morgan Evans, a promising but illiterate miner’s son, is introduced.
  • "Who taught you to read and write?" — Miss Moffat
    "I did." — Morgan Evans (16:09)
• Miss Moffat recognizes Morgan’s raw intellectual talent and drives him to pursue further education, setting high expectations.
• She encourages Morgan’s first writings and discovers his academic potential.
  • "Nothing is the matter with it. It shows. You may be very clever." — Miss Moffat (16:33)

4. Transformation and Setbacks (19:00–31:36)

• Over two years, Morgan excels, and the school’s success becomes essential to village life—but still lacks the squire's full support.
• Miss Moffat advocates for Morgan’s future, persuading the squire to allow Morgan to sit for a scholarship exam at Oxford.
  • "There's a scholarship to Oxford. Allow Morgan Evans to compete." — Miss Moffat (25:43)
• Morgan experiences self-doubt, grappling with his identity and obligations, torn between his roots and potential.

5. Personal Crisis and Crucial Choices (31:41–39:50)

• Villager Bessie reveals she is pregnant with Morgan's child and plans to force Morgan to marry her, risking his academic future.
  • "I'm going to have a little stranger. You're not. And if you don't believe it's Morgan Evans, just ask him." — Bessie (33:47)
• Miss Moffat intervenes, negotiating a solution: she offers to adopt the baby to prevent Morgan's future being derailed.

6. Climactic Examinations and Results (39:50–54:18)

• Morgan sits for his Oxford exams, anxious and self-critical but changed by the process of learning and growth.
  • "Since the day I was born, I've been a prisoner behind a stone wall. Now somebody has given me a leg up, and I look at the other side." — Morgan (43:17)
• Tensions mount as everyone awaits the exam results, with both hope and fear in the air.

7. Resolution and Farewell (50:04–54:42)

• News arrives: Morgan has won the Oxford scholarship.
• He feels duty-bound to marry Bessie for their child’s sake but is counseled by Miss Moffat to pursue his true path, not be entrapped by obligation or guilt.
  • "Make that light come into the mind and someday free the children. Morgan. You could be more. Much more. You could be a man for a future nation to be proud of." — Miss Moffat (53:40)
• Morgan leaves for his new life; Miss Moffat reflects, proud but wistful.

[Claudette Colbert]

All new drinks are now at McDonald's with refreshers like the Strawberry Watermelon Refresher and the Mango Pineapple Refresher with popping Boba to crafted sodas like the Sprite Berry Blast with berry flavors and cold foam. Who knew ice cold drinks could be so fire six? All new drinks are here now at McDonald's. Refreshers contain caffeine. Ladies and gentlemen, we're indeed proud to present that lovely and distinguished actress Corette Colbert. Tonight is making her 24th appearance on the radio theater. We have chosen Emlyn Williams deeply moving play the Corn is Green for the syllabus occasion. And as Mr. Colbert co star we present that fine young actress Cameron Mitchell making his first appearance on our stage. Now act one of the Corners Green starring quartette Colbert as Miss Muffet and Cameron Mitchell as Martin Evans. The Welsh countryside some 50 years ago in a secure Vince called Glen Carno. There's an old house in Glen Carno long empty. And on this spring afternoon the new owner has just arrived. Her name is Ms. Muffet. And she's come filled with hope and

[Cameron Mitchell]

determination to open up a school.

[Claudette Colbert]

Waiting for her are two of the villager. The girl. Mr. Jones.

[Cameron Mitchell]

Mr. Holy Smith.

[Claudette Colbert]

Miss Slow.

[Cameron Mitchell]

I trust you will find everything in order, Miss Moffat. I will go now. No, please write Mr. Jones. You do, miss one day. Oh, I do. Thank you both. You've arranged my things splendidly. But I want very friendly to talk to you. Excuse me, Ms. Moffet. Are you saved? I beg your pardon?

[Claudette Colbert]

Are you?

[Cameron Mitchell]

That's that large empty building next door. It is the old barn belonging to the Gwalia farm. Before the farm was burned down. I would think so. But what has that to do with the new Miss London? I'll tell you. We have mutual friends in London, Ms. Montgomery. They told me that you live alone, that you have just enough money, your education agitated and crime hangs heavily on your hand. Oh, how horrid of him. But isn't it so? Not at all. That much gentleman is not coming.

[Claudette Colbert]

He's lost his way.

[Cameron Mitchell]

So why don't you face the fact and enjoy yourself as I do. But the woman's only future is for mother and any. Hasn't he ever been in love? No. Has it? He adds. I've never talked to a man for more than five minutes without running to doctor here, Mr. Jones, my. My conscience is as clear as the snow. I'm sure it is. The one girl's tells me all about you too. You're a disappointed man, aren't you? How can I be disappointed when I'm saved? Oh, but you can. You're such strangers, Mr. Jones. So, you frog. That's on being saved. Am I right?

[Claudette Colbert]

Such a terrible thing you have said.

[Cameron Mitchell]

But I will have to think it over. Indeed. But in the meantime, you can stop nursing and be very useful to me. Now, how many families are there around here?

[Claudette Colbert]

30 families in the village and 15

[Cameron Mitchell]

on the farm for around many children.

[Claudette Colbert]

Children? Here they are children only until they are 12. Then they go to work in the coal mine and in one week they are old men.

[Cameron Mitchell]

How many of them can read and write? Why do you ask? Because I'm going to start a school poem. What's that? School. What school? Do you see these books? This wonder? Hundreds of them. And something wonderful to read on every single one. When I heard this part of the world was a disgrace to a Christian country, I knew this house was a God thing. I'm going to start a school in that barn next door. And you are going to help me. Oh, how could you? So slow when I couldn't so sn if we'd never been taught to watch, so would we. I'll give you 44 and your lunch. My uncle left me a little money as well as this house. And I know exactly what I'm going to do with it.

[Claudette Colbert]

Let those children in the mine earn money.

[Cameron Mitchell]

I'll pay their parents 16 miserable pennies they get out of it. And when I finish with you, Ms. Ronderis, you won't have time to think about snapping up ahead of me. And you, Mr. Jones, won't have time to be so pleased that you're saved.

[Claudette Colbert]

Well, I do not care. You are not shattered. I am with you.

[Cameron Mitchell]

Good. Now sit down. I'll tell you exactly what I have in mind. What just happened, Miss? The boys for the evening class. They are in the yard. I don't know, Ms. Moffat. One of them has a bottle of rum. I'll take care of them. Never mind my opinion. Mrs. Mar.

[Claudette Colbert]

Is a very unusual woman.

[Cameron Mitchell]

Mrs. WADDY Terrible,

[Claudette Colbert]

terrible.

[Cameron Mitchell]

He's wiggling me in. Becky Ear. I said no. I said nothing. My past, I said. Your pet before he put me up. And now that I joined the corpse. It's all bloody there. The corpse and the distance. Like a Mrs. Corpse turning to him in the street. I did clean and iron and collecting all grass. I slipped. Different woman ever since. Are you fine?

[Claudette Colbert]

Yes, I am.

[Cameron Mitchell]

Well now I just love. Everywhere I went. This is my hermit, not a coal mine. Did you understand what I said? Of course. You Can. Can I oblige anybody else? Very well then, what's See that you can. I have a snap. Six weeks now. Nothing bad even started.

[Claudette Colbert]

Everything is splendid.

[Cameron Mitchell]

Oh, I'm glad. It must have seemed true to me. But I don't wear no gladness. His home is a brag for me. Mr. Jones, do you like my hair? Are they still out there? It's not the boys I'm concerned about. It's the carpenter. He just stopped by. When I asked him when he was going to start work on the barn, he told me he has six orders not to even distract it.

[Claudette Colbert]

He gave the order, McGraw.

[Cameron Mitchell]

That's what I want to know. Mr. Sotherby, I'm rather irritable this evening, so unless there's a reason for your visit.

[Claudette Colbert]

Oh, but there is. The Captain Gentle must be dining with you, madam. Sir Herbert Winslow?

[Cameron Mitchell]

Yes.

[Claudette Colbert]

He's decided he has no use for the bar next door.

[Cameron Mitchell]

But he does not care.

[Claudette Colbert]

This is school, so he must. Regretfully, some big wig must have made him change his mind. Just as right off I'm going to have any of these healthy, filthy nurses in my village.

[Cameron Mitchell]

Not really, Margaret.

[Claudette Colbert]

All my life I've done my level best. One they call me squire, you know. They grab away and I pull away from all the. Bless your heart if you come here. But putting a box, leaving them my dirt. Oh, people like you, you know, in England will be a dollar dangerous place. River. What are they? I say, what are they?

[Cameron Mitchell]

I'm looking to wonder myself, sir.

[Claudette Colbert]

Why don't you take up cocaine, Ms. Moffett? Keep you out of my head,

[Cameron Mitchell]

Mr. Matlie. Wait a minute. You're the Squire Bountiful, are you? Adored by his contented subjects, intelligent and understanding. I forgot to point out there is a considerable amount of dead ignorance, misery and discontent abroad in this world. And that a good deal of it is due to people like me.

[Claudette Colbert]

Okay, good lady crap.

[Cameron Mitchell]

Well, you take some heated, greedy, mutant people and you can go to blue blazes. Yeah.

[Claudette Colbert]

I perceive, madam, that you have been duties have heard me from there.

[Cameron Mitchell]

Oh, dear, dear, dear. Well, at the dance of your part, I know, but I've no doubt you must have given me cause. I suppose he was kind as a girl. He's merely persuaded for Herbert not to leave and not to sell the barn. What will you do, miss? Not it. Sell the house. Take this grandchild of a ridiculous. Thing on my desk. Or word. How I would spend my holiday. I must have been mad. Listen to this song. Since I have ever holidays, I have breakfast and flat Then dinner and rest, then supper, then I talk and I don't sleep. From pure exhaustion, I suppose. Look, this one is illustrated. In blooming oh, your squire was right, Ron. I've been stupid and practical. I can't imagine how I ever. Happy Birthday, America.

What's the matter with you? Why not?

[Claudette Colbert]

Because. Because I was born in a Welsh airfield when my mother was helping with the harvest. And I have always lived in a horse with no stairs, only a ladder and no water. And until my brothers were killed, I never sleep except three in a bed. Now, I know that's terrible grammar, but it's true.

[Cameron Mitchell]

What on Earth had three in a bed? Dr. Who was learning Greek.

[Claudette Colbert]

It has a lot. A lot. I had to better myself. You cannot take a nail file in a public bar, Ms. Mox.

[Cameron Mitchell]

I never heard anything so ridiculous. Besides, you don't go to a public bar.

[Claudette Colbert]

Yes, I do. Every afternoon for a week, spending your pocket money.

[Cameron Mitchell]

I have no idea.

[Claudette Colbert]

You stuff like this because you are not interested in me.

[Cameron Mitchell]

You're interested in you, Miss Martha.

[Claudette Colbert]

How can you be interested in a machine that you put a penny in and if nothing come out, you give it a shake? Heaven. Like your essay.

[Cameron Mitchell]

Heaven.

[Claudette Colbert]

Sit up and bowl, Evans.

[Cameron Mitchell]

What?

[Claudette Colbert]

Do you know what they call me in the village?

[Cameron Mitchell]

No.

[Claudette Colbert]

The school teaches little dogs. What has it got to do with you if my nails are dirty? You mind your own business.

[Cameron Mitchell]

I never meant you to know this. I have spent money on you. I don't mind that money should be spent, but time is different. Years old as I am, two years as valuable currency. I have spent two years on you. Ever since that first day. The May spring of this school has been your career. Sometimes in the middle of the night when I have been desperately tired, I have many ways making plans large and small, sensible and silly Plans for you. You tell me I have no interest. If I say any more, I forgot to cry. I haven't cried since I was younger than you are now. I never forgive you for that. I'm going for a walk. I don't like this sort of conversation. If you want to go on, be at school tomorrow. It's not doubt.

[Claudette Colbert]

I don't want your money and I don't want your time. And I don't want to be responsible to no strange woman.

[Cameron Mitchell]

For nothing. I don't understand you.

[Claudette Colbert]

I joke on this every day.

[Cameron Mitchell]

So Ms. Moffat has gone for a walk. I said, so Ms. Moffat has gone for a walk.

[Claudette Colbert]

I don't feel like talking.

[Cameron Mitchell]

I know J. You and I. I like to know about everything. I liked her in all the things I liked. I'm going away soon, Miss. Marry what will you miss me, Morgan?

[Claudette Colbert]

I don't know.

[Cameron Mitchell]

You know, Miss is quite right to put her in a place never cat white lose men and lessons after woman.

[Claudette Colbert]

Of course, you don't have to go to Oxen.

[Cameron Mitchell]

Oh, dear Sister Wattlet, the morning we've waited for has come. Morgan Evans seeks the increase in domination for Oxford Elsewhere. He had gone back to the mine last autumn after that dreadful scene with Miss Watson. It was a grand miss. Just a ram near me. The Squire could be here by now. Was the Squire coming for indeed to make this call? Motherfucker. He universally appointed the Squire and Miss Lawford towards him so he cannot stand. Oh, I almost Forgot. For you, Ms. Blatty. A card from death. Oh, Erdogan, if she's been gone for weeks, you not miss her, Mrs. Watley?

[Claudette Colbert]

No.

[Cameron Mitchell]

I don't like her, you know. Never have. But you all sister. I know, but I just never been able to tell thanks to her. Very first time I saw her, I said now. Well, it stops snowing, Ron. We should be here soon. Morgan and the choir. Oh, this mor. Would it not be splendid if he won? Two years isn't enough, Ron. Not even for him. He'll have strong candidates against him. Boys from good schools. It all depends on how much examiners will appreciate a highly original intelligence. But wouldn't it be exciting? It would be a wonderful thing for. It would be a wonderful thing for rural education all over the country. And most of all, it would be a wonderful thing for you. You know, I woke up in the middle of the night thinking about Henry viii. I have a feeling there may be a question about the old boy in the paper suit. I've got to cram one or two facts into him before he starts. Yes, Mr. Jones. He's come. Daphne's mother, Bethany. She's here. Aren't I there? But it cannot be you. Your mother just received a card. Well, Bethany, this is unexpected. Couldn't get out? Your mother's in the kitchen. Who's there to see? Mum. Then why are you here? Questions and answers. Just like you, Levaine. You I've come to see. Perhaps we had better retire to the study, Ms. Rumberley. Oh. Oh, yes, very well. Bessie, I can give you exactly one minute of my time. Why, Morgan Evans is sitting for his Oxford examination this morning. Well, he means he. He won't ever be going to Oxford. And why not? Because they're going to be a little stranger. I'm going to have a little stranger. You're not. And if you don't believe us more Morgan Evans. You just asked him. Ask him about that time you locked me up when I shared words with him. Audrey in the doubt, as if he had no human feelings. He just asked him. Oh, what can I say before. As he knows I've come to tell him. And he'll have to marry me, of course, or I'll show him up. After all, a little stranger not paying. Little Fraser, if you're going to have a baby, then call it a baby. Have you told anybody? Mr. Jones, all is coming up the road with Morgan. I wait for a year. You listen to me. For the next three hours, Morgan Evans is not going to be disturbed. You're not going to see him. You can't believe me. The way I am. Hasn't sunk in yet, has it? I'm teaching you something, am I? You are going into the kitchen, Bessie, to see your mother. You will then go upstairs and as soon as the examination is finished, we will talk it all over. When we're a little more calm. Dear, I got to see you. You try to disagree. If you mention this to anybody before we've had that thought, even your mother, I shall strike you so hard that I shall probably sin. I mean every word of mine. I don't mind. Three hours will go soon enough. Oh, sir. Oh, I'm so sorry. How kind of you. It's such a dreadful day.

[Claudette Colbert]

Not at all, Mrs. Pedagog. Anything for a loss.

[Cameron Mitchell]

Sit down, Morgan. The questions are in this envelope. Now, before I break the field, I have a feeling they may bring up Henry vii. I've written down a couple of dates. Here. Memorize them.

[Claudette Colbert]

Yes, Ms. Mo. Glad it isn't me, really. Quite stupid, you know.

[Cameron Mitchell]

Now, Morgan, just don't get a snooky.

[Claudette Colbert]

No.

[Cameron Mitchell]

You're illegible.

[Claudette Colbert]

No, but aren't you going to wish my protege good fortune?

[Cameron Mitchell]

Good luck. Ready?

[Claudette Colbert]

Ready.

[Cameron Mitchell]

This is your examination,

[Claudette Colbert]

Miss Moffet.

[Cameron Mitchell]

Yes.

[Claudette Colbert]

The very first question. We'll be hearing. Act 3 of the Coin is green in a moment. You know, I read a story some time ago that made me realize that there can be heroes of peace as well as heroes of war. It was about a husky MP in Tokyo, name of Earl S. Whitney. Junior. He'd been supporting two war orphans, a Chinese and a Japanese, for three years. On a private pay. He put Little Fantung, age 13, under his wing. First. When the Chinese lad began hanging around the Tokyo base, Whitney rented a place for Phantom and took over the duties of a father. Then hirayama Kyokichi, age 15, came along, and Whitney spread the other wing for him. For three years, he fed, educated, maintained and clothed a fair. And then he took on a night job in a service club to earn some extra change. He needed it. His army pay was $111.90 a month, and he spent about a hundred dollars a month on his two kids. He called the boys Mickey and Jimmy Whitman and hoped that someday they'd all wind up at his home back in Southern California. But in the meantime, even though he was only a private in the army, he was a real hero to those two war orphans. When she said, I don't dance now, I make money moves, that was a mission statement for a whole new generation.

[Cameron Mitchell]

Respect. But that's not the Mount Rushmore. Listen, cash rules everything around me. When that line dropped, it's change. The whole hustle. The greatest tracks are never finished.

And it all goes to prove that

[Claudette Colbert]

such acts by you and your friends today are shaping our world of the Morse. It's midsummer now. Seven months since Morgan Evans took the examination for Oxford. Seven months since Betsy Watty suddenly returned and just as suddenly disappeared again without seeing Morgan all week. Morgan's been far from the village in Oxford, waiting word of his success.

[Cameron Mitchell]

How can you be so calm, Mr. Jones? Don't you know the whole village? Janice had railway to meet him. The truth. Oh, she hasn't wanted to break her heart. You would feel as so keen as all that. I used not to think so, but since his examination day, they have been so much better friends. It has been a pleasure just to hear them conversing. Any news yet again? And not yet, Ms. Morris. Where's the crier? Through the railway, that's where. The rest of them. You do not appear miracle. I'm past being nervous. 1. If he has won. I can't believe it. L. And. And if she has lost. If he has lost. We must proceed if nothing has happened. Meantime, Mr. J, your report is on your desk. This on Berry Farm crew waiting for you. Morgan.

[Claudette Colbert]

I knew they'd be watching for me, so I. I got off at Sun Morphin. I have no news one way or another, except I'm no longer hopeful.

[Cameron Mitchell]

Oh, why not?

[Claudette Colbert]

Well, they talk to me for oral examinations. They jump down hard on the New Testament. As new ted N. You. You are burnt hail.

[Cameron Mitchell]

Better than a raging fever. Go on.

[Claudette Colbert]

Well, I spent 10 minutes explaining why St. Paul sailed from a ton 300 miles inland.

[Cameron Mitchell]

Oh, dear. And the French.

[Claudette Colbert]

Not good. I said not to any more, to everything, but it did not fit every.

[Cameron Mitchell]

Did the president send for you?

[Claudette Colbert]

He did. He asked if I had ever had strong drinks. And I looked him straight in the eye and said no. I was terribly nervous. My collar flew open. He didn't seem impressed with me at all. And then as I was leaving, he appeared to be sorry for me in some way. And I. Well, I received the impression that I failed.

[Cameron Mitchell]

When shall we know?

[Claudette Colbert]

Today, tomorrow, the next day. They'll send you. The work failed. What I cannot even talk about.

[Cameron Mitchell]

But we must talk about it. You faced the idea of failure the day you left for Oxford.

[Claudette Colbert]

But no, I've been to Oxford and come back. Come back from the world. Since the. The day I was born, I've been a prisoner behind a stone wall. And now somebody has given me a leg up. How I look at the other side. They cannot drag me back again. They cannot. They must give me a point and send me over.

[Cameron Mitchell]

I've never heard you talk so much since I've known.

[Claudette Colbert]

Let's just get up. I can talk now. The three days I've been there, I've been talking my head off. My second night there, I. I took a walk. There was a moon up. Not the same moon I see here. In a different case. All things together. All of a sudden, with one big rush against that moon, I saw this place again. You and I were sitting here studying and all those books and everything I've ever learned from those books and from you was lighted up.

[Cameron Mitchell]

Like.

[Claudette Colbert]

Like a magic lantern. Rome, Greece, Shakespeare, Carile, Milton.

[Cameron Mitchell]

Everything.

[Claudette Colbert]

Everything had a meaning. Because I was in a new world. And so it came to me why you worked like a slave to make me ready for this scholarship. I have changed.

[Cameron Mitchell]

I didn't want you to stop.

[Claudette Colbert]

I have not been drinking, Ms. Moffat.

[Cameron Mitchell]

I know.

[Claudette Colbert]

I can talk to you too, now.

[Cameron Mitchell]

Yes, I'm glad.

[Claudette Colbert]

I am finding this raising a definite train. Telling the lad they'll send the result through the post. Where is he? The lead in.

[Cameron Mitchell]

And as Muffet says. Please, no question. S. Whenever that will be. The young man was back again.

[Claudette Colbert]

How'd you do?

[Cameron Mitchell]

How you, squire? Blooming.

[Claudette Colbert]

What the do?

[Cameron Mitchell]

3 days ago she sent money to you. Did you not receive the letter? Yes, I did. And all the others till I was sick of it.

[Claudette Colbert]

What is all this?

[Cameron Mitchell]

I'm here to congratulate a certain young gent in case we've won that solemn. What has that got to do with you? The thing is wrong. Please don't say. Four weeks ago yesterday, I had a baby.

[Claudette Colbert]

You had a what?

[Cameron Mitchell]

Baby. Seven pounds, nine ounces.

[Claudette Colbert]

Good heavens, how dark they.

[Cameron Mitchell]

But I've just come for the spinster. Hello, Mum. My, you do look a golly mop. And where have you been all these mums and doing what? I'd like to know. Turning you into a granny. A granny? Well, thanks. Coming, miss. So close the door, Morgan, and have a good sleep. Later we say. Hello, Ms. Maret. I just been telling him. You know what Now, I think it's

[Claudette Colbert]

time you told us who the fellow is proceeding. Guess what? I will take proceeding.

[Cameron Mitchell]

That's my. Who is it? Listen to me, Betty. I'll pay you anything. Anything. No good. Ms. Maret. It's Morgan. Heaven, I don't believe it. Oh, man, I've been dreading this for months. In a way, it's a relief. Well, where is he? I got a fair week old baby and I haven't got a husband to keep him.

[Claudette Colbert]

Of course, there's no need to call him.

[Cameron Mitchell]

I am willing to marry her. Bestowing on the infant every advantage by bringing it up as a Baptist. You like that, Miss Martha, wouldn't you? Oh, I'd like to oblige, really, but I couldn't. Besides, my friend would be the only friend ever. Such a nice gentleman, Mom. Quite as well.

[Claudette Colbert]

I have never heard such a conversation outside a police car.

[Cameron Mitchell]

I suppose you wouldn't care to marry me.

[Claudette Colbert]

Good gracious.

[Cameron Mitchell]

Doesn't this friend of yours want to marry you? Don't talk of anything else. Only you won't have the baby. So I've decided to give up my friend Mary Morgan Evans. Unless Mr. Jones would consider the baby without me. Mr. Baby without you? Your only child? What about your mother, love? I haven't got any. Didn't know what the thing to say. I cannot remain here another minute. You have to make Morgan Evans marry you on the chance he will become fond enough of the child to ensure a future. Then your conscience will be clear. And later you can go off on your own. I shouldn't be surprised. Meanwhile, it's worthwhile to ruin a boy on the threshold of. Oh, there must be a way out. There must be. And bless his mother. I've got this. What? Why can't you adopt it? Would that be you, Bessie? Would it? Yes. Yes it was. What would I do with a baby? I don't even know what they look like. Oh, they're lovely little things. Now it's Oliver. You stop it is what he sent. Oh, do please and put everything to right. He might grow up like his father, you know, and turn out quite nice. But it's mad. You're the grandmother. Walley Stone. How I couldn't. Now, I don't bear it no ill will, but every penny I get goes to the court. You are the one here. Really, you are missing Rocky. You mean that if I do not adopt this child, I will have to tell Morgan Evans and he will ask to marry me. I swear that. And if I do, then I swear he'll never know a thing about it. Then I give in. Well, that's lovely. My friend. Will will be playing.

[Claudette Colbert]

Oh, which we must be very truly thankful for.

[Cameron Mitchell]

Which. And Morgan,

[Claudette Colbert]

This choir just told me. He thought I knew. Then he said it was for the best, that I ought to be told. Why? Why should this happen?

[Cameron Mitchell]

There is no need for you to upset yourself. Ms. Buffett is going to take care of me. I am going to adopt it and

[Claudette Colbert]

what do you take me for then? What would you like to do? What would I like to do? It's not a question of what I would like to do. It's what I'm going to do. I'm going to Mario, and that's fine.

[Cameron Mitchell]

I knew this would happen. Answer it. Wat. No, no, I'll go. It made it a squire, and I don't want it yet. Oh, thank you. It's a telegram. You have won the scholarship, Marcus. Come along with me, Mr. Jones, and I'll make you a.

[Claudette Colbert]

Oh, what's the use in women, Morgan?

[Cameron Mitchell]

Now, look, if ever anybody has stood

[Claudette Colbert]

at the crossroads, you are now no use, Ms. Moffet. I'm going to marry her.

[Cameron Mitchell]

I'm going to speak to you very simply, Martin. I want you to change suddenly from a boy to a man. Now, I understand this is a great shock to you, but I want you to slow off this tightened obstinacy to do the right thing. Did you ever promise her marriage?

[Claudette Colbert]

No. No.

[Cameron Mitchell]

Did you ever tell her that you loved her? No. No.

[Claudette Colbert]

But it makes no difference. There is a child living and breathing on this earth because of me, and I cannot turn from that part.

[Cameron Mitchell]

But don't you know that she has her own plans and she doesn't want the child? If you marry her, you know what will happen, don't you? You will go back to the mine. In a year she will have left you both. You will be drinking again, and this time you will not stop.

[Claudette Colbert]

That does not alter the fact that I have a duty to them both.

[Cameron Mitchell]

Yes, you have a duty, but it's not to this. This loose of a lady.

[Claudette Colbert]

You mean a duty to you? No.

[Cameron Mitchell]

A year ago I might have said a duty to me. But that night you showed your teeth. You gave me a lot to think about. You caught me unaware and I gave you the worst possible answer back. I turned sorry for myself and taunted you within me. Gratitude. I was a fool not to realize that a debt of gratitude is the most humiliating debt of all. And a little show of affection would have wiped it out on me. I offer you that affection today.

[Claudette Colbert]

Why? Why are you seeing this Camino?

[Cameron Mitchell]

Because as the moments are passing and I am going to get my way, I know that I'm never going to see you again.

[Claudette Colbert]

Different. But why?

[Cameron Mitchell]

If you're not to marry her, it would be madness to me to come in contact with the child. So if I'm adopting a child, she can never come to see me? Common sense, Morgan. You've been given the push over the war you asked for.

[Claudette Colbert]

But you. You will be staying here. Oh, can I never come back? After everything you've gone for.

[Cameron Mitchell]

Every morning when I take my walk up there where the valley suddenly dropped.

[Claudette Colbert]

Here.

[Cameron Mitchell]

You know the place?

[Claudette Colbert]

Yes.

[Cameron Mitchell]

I have found myself thinking of you working for this scholarship and winning it. And I have experienced a feeling of. Of complete happiness. I shall experience it again. You have no duty anymore.

[Claudette Colbert]

You're only duties of the world. The.

[Cameron Mitchell]

Well, now that you're going, there's no harm in telling me something. I don't think you realize what your future can become if you give it a chance. You could become a great man of our country. If a light come into the mind, you said. Remember?

[Claudette Colbert]

Yes.

[Cameron Mitchell]

Make that light come into the mind and someday free the children. Morgan. You could be more. Much more. You could be a man for a future nation to be proud of. Perhaps I'm mad. I don't know. It's up to you.

[Claudette Colbert]

I. I do not know what to say. I have been so much time in this room. The lessons are over, Morgan. I shall always remember.

[Cameron Mitchell]

Well, I'm glad you say he will please you might. Yes. The band is out and H.K.

[Claudette Colbert]

morgan got to come to town hall,

[Cameron Mitchell]

man. He never forgive you. Goodbye, Morgan.

[Claudette Colbert]

I. I am sure if I cannot.

[Cameron Mitchell]

He golfing.

[Claudette Colbert]

Yeah. Yes, Rob.

[Cameron Mitchell]

It's all over. 9:00:00.

[Claudette Colbert]

In a moment, our stars will return. Letters that come to this show from servicemen bear postmarks from all over the world. And it's plain to see that they're having a wonderful opportunity to observe new customs and traditions among people of other lands. They're finding out too, that these ideas of other people art and strange after all. For instance, in Fecamp in northern France, most of the men of a village are fishermen. Before venturing out to sea, they gather in the Notre Dame de Salut church to make their devotions, seeking divine guidance for a successful trip and safe return. Benediction services are held also in other parts of France, in England and Newfoundland, in Greece and Italy. They're of a religious nature. But fishermen are pretty superstitious too. Many of them will refuse to join a ship that doesn't have a mascot. Some refuse to sail on certain days or when the tide is running a certain way. I just don't think you'll be lucky for them. Well, all this might sound strange, but as our servicemen have observed, we have our own traditions about the sea. In some cases, these are religious too, such as the services that are held in San Diego and Wilmington, California, at New Orleans and other fishing centers of Louisiana. We have other customs as far as luck is concerned. A crisping of a ship by placing a bottle of wine or water over its bow. The carrying of a dog, cat or other animal as a mascot. And the ritual still exists when crossing the equator of initiating the first timers, introducing them to King Neptune, the royal chaplain, the surgeon, the barber, and the royal baby. It's an enduring custom that dates back into antiquity when men in all seriousness paid homage to the sea gods. These things are part of our culture and they have their equivalence among the customs and traditions of other people. A way of doing things may be different, but the ideals are the same. And our servicemen are helping to maintain goodwill between us and the people of other countries by observing these customs, by learning about them, and by honoring them. Now here's Mr. Kerry Wilson with our star and we welcome them back to the footlights. Corbett Colbert and Cameron Mitchell. I really am impressed. 24 appearances on the radio theater. Did you repeat some of your pictures several times?

[Cameron Mitchell]

No, the only picture ever repeated was Family Honeymoon. I did that twice.

[Claudette Colbert]

Well, I'm not only impressed, Carrie, I'm completely discouraged. Imagine starring in all those pictures, but your career is zooming ahead. Cam, let me tell you about next week's play. It's the light hearted, romantic adventure of a glamorous young model who finds her entire life rearranged by a chance encounter with a marriage broker. Yes, it's that hilarious hit from 20th Century Fox, the Model and the Marriage Broker.
