The Palm Olive Beauty Box Theater is brought to you every Wednesday night by the makers of Palm Olive soaps. The Student Prince, starring Jessica Dragonette.

[William Hayne]

I have a dream of you.

[Jessica Dragonette]

This is Jessica Dragonet saying good evening to my friends of the Palmolive Beauty Box Theater with Al Goodman's orchestra. I have just sung a little bit of one of the lovely songs of tonight's story. Deep in my heart, I can't tell you how sorry I am that I was unable to sing for you these past two weeks. But I shall never forget the kind messages of deep concern which you sent me. And I want to thank Lanny Ross for stepping in at the last minute and the makers of Maxwell House Coffee who, who so generously gave him permission to appear. But tonight I'm thrilled to sing the part of the wise little waitress Kathy in the Student Prince. It's the most interesting story of a wild but likeable young prince who fell in love and jeopardized his throne. That excellent young tenor, William Hayne is Prince Carl. And in his scarlet uniform he looks very handsome indeed. Now, Jean Paul King to tell you the situation as the story begins, if you will, Jean.

[Announcer]

With pleasure, Ms. Raganet. In the palace of Carlsberg, old King Johan, grandfather of Prince Carl, has decided it's high time to teach his wild living and pleasure loving grandson that he has a real responsibility to face. And that right now is the time to do some serious thinking about the future.

[King Johan]

Carl, I've been hearing wild stories about your behavior. How you insist on going about with the most ordinary kind of young men. And you drink too much. And that. Well, to put it very plainly, you will have most unfortunate ideas about your choice of women companions.

[Prince Carl]

I suppose things do sound pretty bad by the time they reach your ears, Grandfather. But I get so fed up sitting around the palace doing nothing. I want to live and laugh and enjoy myself.

[King Johan]

My boy, consider your royal position time.

[Prince Carl]

Enough of that. Later, sir. Meanwhile, I'm finding out a great deal about the people I shall someday have to govern. And to tell the truth, Grandfather, I like them very much.

[King Johan]

Yes, too much for your own good. I've made all arrangements for you to enter the University of Heidelberg. It is my hope that the general atmosphere will inspire you to serious thought of the responsibilities that will someday be yours as King of Carlsberg.

[Prince Carl]

I hope it will be many years before that Day comes. Your majesty. As for going to Heidelberg, the idea of drinking beer with a lot of students sounds as though it might be a lot of fun. Our coffee. Bring us beer. The very best beer in all time.

[William Hayne]

Education should be scientific playboy. Don't waste your time on book boy for every student youth studies women's law when all professionals the great boys but you will FL because your drums don't hesitate. Oh, we get D minus it isn't on account of china you cut the lectures small as rhyme and please give you ill blood.

[Prince Carl]

King don't play, don't sit a rope they all make me sick. A rope.

[Chorus]

All the children of a lady come.

[William Hayne]

To boys.

[Prince Carl]

We get divided it isn't all a lot shining we brought election.

[William Hayne]

For the drinking we will grab your.

[Prince Carl]

What are you waiting for? Coffee. You all want beer? Beer from Sopredia. Waitress. Tastes more like champagne.

[Jessica Dragonette]

You don't deserve one little glass, Carl.

[Prince Carl]

Why, Clausi. How could you say such things?

[Jessica Dragonette]

Well, it was bad enough for you to get the poor old coachman drunk. But when you harnessed him to his own carriage, I think you went too far.

[Prince Carl]

I couldn't get his fat old horse into the carriage. I felt very badly about that.

[Jessica Dragonette]

And just for that, you get no deer from me.

[Prince Carl]

I'm quite right too. What's more, that goes for the rest of you. Let someone else carry out your orders. I'm carrying out. Carthy, come with you.

[William Hayne]

Oh, put me down. Put me down.

[Jessica Dragonette]

Carl, do you hear? You behave worse than any student that ever came here to Heidelberg.

[Prince Carl]

I bet I have more fun.

[William Hayne]

Put me down.

[Prince Carl]

It's just what I meant to do. There. Now then, Carthy, I want one of your very best kisses.

[Jessica Dragonette]

Oh, no, no, no, no, no. But suppose. Oh, Carl, Who'd ever dreamed that you will be king of Carlsberg someday?

[Prince Carl]

I hate to think of it.

[Jessica Dragonette]

In the six months you've been in Heidelberg, you've thought of nothing but having a good time. You know, you're a headstrong, unbelievably bad boy. And you'll probably be a very bad king. That is, if actions prove anything.

[Prince Carl]

Some do, some don't. When I put my arms around you and kiss you, that means a lot.

[Jessica Dragonette]

Oh, you simply won't realize how serious I am and how much you're hurting yourself by drinking beer all day and saying I'm sure I don't know to the professors all next day.

[Prince Carl]

Oh, come on, Kathy. You really don't look your prettiest when you're scowling. Listen to what this wonderful night Is saying to us. Can't you hear the music in our hearts?

[Jessica Dragonette]

I'm afraid I do. But we mustn't listen. This night is dangerous, Carl dear.

[Prince Carl]

Dangerous. No. You're safe in my arms, Kathy, where you belong. Your gentle eyes are telling mine how well they know the meaning of our love. We are together. We belong to each other. And look, Kathy.

[Chorus]

O, the head of the moon is beaming White has blossomed on above Nothing is heard but the song of a bird Feeding all the earth with dreaming.

[William Hayne]

Happy hours are busy.

[Chorus]

But in the trees lies the echo of my longing While all around you my dreams are wrapped your throne. Ah, hear my longing cry.

[Prince Carl]

Oh, Carl, you're worth more than all the thrones in the whole world.

[Jessica Dragonette]

Oh, you may think so now, Karl, but when the time comes, you'll take your place on the throne of Karlsberg. You will, because you must.

[Prince Carl]

Who knows about the future? All I know is that you're in my arms and that I want to keep you here. That the night is dark and friendly.

[Chorus]

The moon is be Nothing is heard but the song of the bird Feeling.

[William Hayne]

From the air with.

[Chorus]

My heart was Feel it be Only you can carry.

[Prince Carl]

Oh, Cossy, darling. I made up my mind to do what you should. To leave Heidelberg at once and take you with me.

[Jessica Dragonette]

But where? What are you going to do?

[Prince Carl]

Not another word. Pack your things and we'll get the first train to Paris. We'll be married, settle down and live happily ever after.

[Jessica Dragonette]

Oh, but carry, Carl. I can't let you give up everything life has meant you to be just because you think you love me.

[Prince Carl]

Think I love you? I know I love you, Kathy. Just as I know the Paris train will go without us. Unless. Who's that, Albert? It's Dr. Engel from Carlsberg.

[Dr. Engel]

Alfons, you, Highness. I have a message for you. Oh, People of Carlsberg.

[Prince Carl]

What is it, Dr. Engel? Why did you come here? Why all this formality?

[Dr. Engel]

Your grandfather, King Johann Frederick of Carlsberg, passed away this afternoon.

[Prince Carl]

Oh, Karl.

[Dr. Engel]

The people of Carlsberg await your immediate return. The king is dead.

[Jessica Dragonette]

Long live the king.

[Dr. Engel]

It is to you, Karl Franz, that our people now look for guidance and leadership. The throne is waiting for you, your Majesty.

[Prince Carl]

But, doctor, I can't. I don't. I don't want the throne. I want.

[Dr. Engel]

You must forget your own wants, Karl Franz. I've always tried my best to teach you. Your life is not your own. You are now king of Carlsberg.

[Prince Carl]

But every king's a man. If I've got to give up Carthage, then. Then I refuse the throne. Refuse it? But, Karl.

[Jessica Dragonette]

Wait, Dr. Engel. Listen to me, Karl. Franz. You're a spoiled, thoughtless, utterly selfish boy. You have no right to refuse the throne. Your people need you.

[Prince Carl]

Need me? What for? What good would I be sitting on the throne in an almond straitjacket?

[Jessica Dragonette]

But you wouldn't be that kind of a king. You love your people too much. You've drunk beer at their tables, made friends of innkeepers, beggars, barmaids and blacksmiths. They all love you. For you to turn your back on them now. Would be to betray your birthright and the people's faith in you.

[Prince Carl]

I've never given that much thought to it, Kathy. I only knew we were in love.

[Jessica Dragonette]

Yes, Carl, we are. But the crown is yours, and you must take it. And leave me here in Heidelberg where I belong. Just remember me sometime as a girl you used to know and love. And I'll always carry your image and the memory of yours deep in my heart forever. This is goodbye, Cobb.

[William Hayne]

And yet deep in my heart, dear, I have a dream of you Passion in the sun and I love the roses and you, O God, with me fever For I remember forever Deep in my heart Holy Grail.

[Prince Carl]

Oh, Kathy. Youth, life, music and love are all against giving you up.

[Jessica Dragonette]

Birth, breeding, training and traditions. Say you must, Carl. Be a man and accept your fate. I'll never forget you and Carl. You can always know that deep in.

[William Hayne]

My heart I have a dream of you.

[Chorus]

Passion of skylight, Perfume of roses and you.

[William Hayne]

My heart may fear but.

[Prince Carl]

Our paths mustn't sever carting for you.

[Jessica Dragonette]

Have no right to say. Say that, Carl, you were born to be king.

[Dr. Engel]

Come. Your Majesty, the girl is right. This must be goodbye.

[Prince Carl]

Perhaps. Perhaps it must.

[Chorus]

But deep into my heart, dear.

[Announcer]

In just a moment we'll see what the lovely Kathy's renunciation of her royal lover will mean to herself, to Carl and to the people of Carlsberg. Right. Now may we let you hear an experience of a Young lady at 104 West 174th Street, Bronx, New York. A girl whom I have no doubt is as lovely as our own. Coffee. Ms. Elsie Strouch.

[Elsie Strouch]

I'm 22 years old. When I was in high school, I was very popular. But a year ago, I found I wasn't being invited out as I used to be. What was the matter? Well, one day I opened the American Weekly. And they're staring me in the face. Was a palm olive advertisement that pointed out no girl could expect to be popular if her complexion was beginning to show. Signs of dry, lifeless middle aged skin. Well, my skin was beginning to show signs of dullness and dryness. There were tiny lines in my skin. I read the entire ad read the Dr. Defoe had selected Palm olives as the only soap he considered gentle and safe enough to protect the skins of the little Dion Quinticlet. So I started using palm olives. And today, well, I don't see how I could have any more fun. On the go all the time, ladies.

[Announcer]

Middle aged skin begins with a slight dryness and dullness. Almost invisible lines. It's very common indeed, even among girls in their 20s. But Palm Olive soap will help you to have a young skin again, smooth and alluring. For palm olive soap is made with that finest of all beauty ingredients, olive oil. Palm olive's lather is utterly different from that of any other soap. For it does more than merely cleanse gently and thoroughly. It also soothes and protects the skin overcomes dry, lifeless middle aged skin, helping to make your complexion smoother and more alluring day by day. Are you worried over the first signs of dry, lifeless middle aged skin? Then don't you want to follow the example of millions of lovely women the world over and use palm olive soap to have a lovelier, more alluring, really school girl complexion? And now for the rest of our musical loves story. The Student Prince Jessica Dragonet's production tonight here in the Palm Olive Beauty Box Theater. It's Coronation Day at Carlsberg.

[Prince Carl]

Hurry, hurry. There'll be no room left in the palace courtyard.

[Jessica Dragonette]

But they say there'll be no carnation.

[Prince Carl]

It's his duty to become king.

[Elsie Strouch]

That's all you know about love.

[Prince Carl]

Oh, you women.

[Dr. Engel]

It's a good thing we don't have a coronation every day, Lieutenant.

[Prince Carl]

From what I hear, there won't be a coronation today either. They say the cabinet won't permit it. Now, don't call back. Back?

[Elsie Strouch]

We ought to be exiled, that's what.

[Prince Carl]

You're crazy. We ought to build monuments to him.

[Announcer]

For having the courage to say what he thinks.

[Jessica Dragonette]

Look, there's a carriage driving up to.

[Elsie Strouch]

That private entrance to the palace.

[Prince Carl]

Hey, look who's getting out. It's that waitress they say he's in love with. I know her from a picture.

[Dr. Engel]

Cy. Thank heaven you've come at last.

[Jessica Dragonette]

I got here as soon as I could, Dr. Amos. Your message was so mysterious. It just said Karl Franz needs you, Kathy, but his people need you even more. Please come at once.

[Dr. Engel]

I suppose you've heard of his recent threats to refuse the crown.

[Jessica Dragonette]

Yes, doctor. I'm sorry, but what can I do?

[Dr. Engel]

His ministers are powerless. Only you can make him see exactly where his duty lies.

[Jessica Dragonette]

But how can I, doctor, when I love him?

[Dr. Engel]

You must, Carthy, because you love him not for me, but for. Not even for Carlsberg. But for his own sake.

[Jessica Dragonette]

For his own sake.

[Dr. Engel]

Exactly.

[Jessica Dragonette]

I see. Well, doctor, I may be a very poor actress, but I'll try.

[Dr. Engel]

God bless you, my child. Come, I'll take you to him now.

[Jessica Dragonette]

Before I change my mind. You mean, doctor, where is he?

[Dr. Engel]

We'll find him in the main hall. Up these stairs, my dear. Some of your old friends are with him.

[Jessica Dragonette]

My old friends? Who?

[Dr. Engel]

Carl's classmates from Heidelberg.

[Jessica Dragonette]

The students, doctor?

[Prince Carl]

Yes.

[Dr. Engel]

I asked them to come, hoping they might help persuade him to do his duty. Here we are. Wait till they finish singing. I'll open the door a little bit so that you can hear them better.

[Prince Carl]

Drink, Let the first star May young hearts have a part Drink, drink. Drink.

[Chorus]

Let every groom of us salute its.

[Jessica Dragonette]

Sweetheart.

[Prince Carl]

Men of the Saxon corps. A toast to Karl Franz, the youth we knew as one of us. And to the man he has since become King Karl Franz of Carlberg. To King Karl Franz. Wait. Stop it. You drink to a life of loneliness. What happiness will I have in being king?

[Dr. Engel]

It's up to you now, Karthi. You are the only hope.

[Jessica Dragonette]

I'll do all I can, doctor, but promises are not very much use.

[Dr. Engel]

Here he comes. Your majesty, I have brought you a visitor.

[Prince Carl]

What? Kathy. Little Kathy. Oh, my darling. If you only knew how I'd like to see you again.

[Jessica Dragonette]

I've often thought of you, your majesty.

[Prince Carl]

Come, cossy, let's go where we can be alone. Excuse me to the others, Dr. Ingles.

[Dr. Engel]

I will, with pleasure. Your majesty.

[Prince Carl]

I have so much to say. Oh, sit here and let me look at you. Yes, you're even lovelier than I remembered.

[Jessica Dragonette]

Thank you, your majesty.

[Prince Carl]

Tell me, how's old Heidelberg? Still the same.

[Jessica Dragonette]

Well, business at the inn isn't very good, but it's still the same. You've grown a little thinner, your majesty.

[Prince Carl]

Darling, what's the matter? I'm Carl, the man who loves you. The man you love.

[Jessica Dragonette]

Oh, your majesty. Do you remember how we used to say those silly things, Hans and I? Hans is my husband. We often laugh about each other.

[Prince Carl]

Your husband?

[Jessica Dragonette]

Oh, yes, I see.

[Prince Carl]

And do you laugh when you remember the May moon on the river Neckar? The promises we made? The way I held you to me and knew why men had arms.

[Jessica Dragonette]

I had almost forgotten.

[Prince Carl]

Oh, no, Kathy. Your eyes remember and your lips they remember mine. You'll never forget our love.

[Jessica Dragonette]

Good, Carl. Have you forgotten that you promised the last day I saw you? Does all this mean nothing to you now?

[Prince Carl]

It means a great deal. I've gone mad, trying desperately to hold myself to my promise. But those days we spent together, crowded in and thrust the kingdom of Carlsberg into another world. Do those days mean nothing to you, Carl?

[Jessica Dragonette]

Oh, Carl. They're my precious dreams, too. How often I shut my eyes to feel again your strong arms holding me to you. To know the warm glow that swept over me when you first said I love you. They were wonderful precious days, Carl. That seemed to have happened so long ago now.

[William Hayne]

Golden days in the sunshine of a happy you golden days full of innocence.

[Jessica Dragonette]

And full of truth.

[William Hayne]

In our hearts we remember them all else above golden days days of you and how we laughed with a gaiety that had no fear Looking back through memories Here we will nothing sweeter that is me. Golden days when we are gold.

[Prince Carl]

You remember those golden days so well, Kathy. Yet you say you laugh at them. Your husband and you. What's his name?

[Jessica Dragonette]

Did you say Wilhelm?

[Prince Carl]

It was Hans the first time.

[Jessica Dragonette]

Oh, Karl.

[Prince Carl]

I know, dearest. You thought you were helping me. You have, Carthy, but not in the way you meant to. You tried hard to convince me you no longer loved me. But I saw the real truth in your eyes.

[Jessica Dragonette]

I told Dr. Engel I was a very bad actress.

[Prince Carl]

Thank heaven for that. Kathy. Now I know exactly what to do. My people are waiting word from me in the palace courtyard. Well, they shall have it. They shall have it. Kathy. Listen to what I'm going to tell them from the balcony. People of Carlsberg. I am not unaware of the rumors which have gone about concerning whether or not I would accept the crown. I might say the rumors are not without foundation. For generations, my ancestors have sat on the throne of Carlsberg, bound by tradition, unable to call their souls their own. That I will not do. If I were to be the kind of royal figurehead my ministers would make me, I could no longer enjoy the privilege of being one of you. I will not give up that privilege. On one condition only will I accept the crown of Carlsberg. It is that I be permitted to rule as I think best. And that means that I shall spend much of my time with you, my people. And my first act as king will be to choose one from among you. Choose her as my wife and your queen. If you approve my course, I will be most happy to hear it. We approve. All right, I say. Long live the king.

[William Hayne]

Long live the king.

[Prince Carl]

Well, little Carthage, what will your husband Hans say to that?

[Jessica Dragonette]

Oh, Carl, my dearest, it frightens me to know that you love me that much.

[Prince Carl]

Oh, my own dear one, believe me.

[Jessica Dragonette]

I'll try my best to be worthy of you. My every thought and action from now on will prove how much you are a part of me.

[William Hayne]

That deep in my heart, dear, I have a dream of you.

[Chorus]

Perfume of roses and you.

[William Hayne]

Remember forever Deep in my heart J.

[Announcer]

And so we leave Karl Franz smiling into the eyes of the girl who meant more to him than a throne. In just a moment, Ms. Jessica Dragonette will tell you about next week's production here in the Palm Olive Beauty Box Theater. But first, may I ask a favor of every woman listening? Ask yourself this question, won't you? Is my complexion as young looking as I'd like it to be? Or do I see the first warning signs of dry, dull, lifeless, middle aged? Now, I don't know what your answers will be to those questions, but I do wish to commend to you the gentle, safe beauty soap that the little Dion quintuplets use for the protection of their tender skin. And that millions of fastidious women the world over depend on to help them have a smoother, lovelier complexion. That's Palm Olive Soap, of course. The lovely pure soap made with olive oil. The famous beauty soap that, used regularly, cleanses, protects and soothes your skin and helps you to gain a complexion that's softer and more annoying. And now here's Ms. Jessica Dragonette to tell you about next week in the Palm Olive Beauty Box Theater.

[Jessica Dragonette]

Thank you, Jean. Well, it's quite a different setting for next week's story. Mexico, the Rio Grande river. And vivacious, tempestuous Rio Rita. Don't forget I'm counting on your letters to help me choose these stories each week. Write to me in care of your own station.
