This is Let's Talk to Lucy starring Lucille Ball.

A very warm welcome to you all.

I'm Gary Morton, and now let's talk to Lucy.

Hi, this is Lucy, and my guest today is lovely, delectable Jane Powell,

who has been a singing sensation since she was seven years old.

Jane was under contract to MGM for 11 years, where she literally grew up from child to teenager

to adult, while starring in some 20 musical movies. To Jane, however, music is not just a form

of entertainment, it's a whole way of

life, and she decided a few years ago that she wanted to meet the public face to face. Since then,

she has been on dozens of concert tours, appeared at the nation's top supper clubs, recently

completed a very successful run in My Fair Lady in summer theaters and is soon to start

a round-the-world tour which will include Australia, Tokyo, New Zealand, the Philippines, and major

cities in Europe. She is starting very shortly and she is taking all three of her children with her.

Jane Darling, hi.

How are you, Lucy?

I'm very happy to see you today, and I'm particularly interested in why and how

you are going to take your three charming children with you all around the world.

Well, I took them to Australia last June, and, in fact, I took four.

I took my stepdaughter also. Really? In fact, I might even

take her again this time if she's available. And I don't think I've ever enjoyed myself as much as I did

at that time with them. And it completely changed the children's way of thinking and just seeing

the way other people live. There was not one problem at all.
