0:00.0 | 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. |
0:13.0 | Hi, this is Lucy. You know, I promised when I started my radio show to let you in on all my activities wherever I am. So I want you to hear all about my |
0:22.8 | trip to New York City for Lucy Day at the World's Fair and the rest of the week in the big city. |
0:28.7 | We lived at the New York Hilton Hotel. We had a wild, wonderful day at the World's Fair. We visited |
