Good-bye.

- [Door Closes]

- And they wonder what's wrong with radio.

Joe Jerk. He doesn't know a good voice

when he hears it.

- Do you?

- I know you've got a voice.

- Incidentally, my name's Ross. Don Ross.

- How do you do, Mr. Ross?

- I hope you're not sore at me.

- Why should I be?

Well, after all, I almost

lost your job for you, didn't I?

Yes. But then, of course,

you're right, he's wrong.

- How's that again, ma'am?

- Mr. Ross, give me credit for having a little sense.

Besides, now that

I've got the job, I'll do it my way.

Excuse me. Your way.

May I ask you just one

more question, Miss Froman?

- As many as you'd like.

- Just one. How'd you like some lunch?

- Frankly, I'd love it.

- Okay, come on.

I'll buy you a peanut butter sandwich.

I might even make it Jims Toasty kind.

- After all, you gotta plug the product.

- [Laughs]

munchy, tasty and nutritious%

[Don Narrating]

Staff artist. Yep, she was on her way.

She got the plugs in the morning

and the songs at night.

% I'm through with love%

% I'll never fall again%

% Said adieu to love%

% Don't ever call again%

% For I must have you%

% Or no one%

% And so I'm through with love% %

[Don Narrating] Within a matter of months,

the name of Jane Froman...

was a feature

on the major networks.

The first outside offer

that made any sense...

came from one of those

great big movie palaces...

on State Street

with 3,000 seats...

just itching to be filled each week.

I gave her arm a little twist,

and she took it.

Got top billing too...

right up there

with the latest hit from Hollywood.

Incidentally, if you'll

forgive me for pointing...

I was also on the bill that week...

and strictly not by coincidence.

Leave us not emphasize

that point however.

This was Jane's big chance.
