hwp[Woman] My daughter will be singing
in the competition tomorrow evening.
- Oh, June Allison.
- Oh, Loretta Young.
Her late father and I
had such high hopes for her.
But shes determined
to try to be a singer.
- I suppose she has
some talent in that area.
- [Laughs]
Its such a relief you were able
to accommodate us
by bringing
the dresses here today.
Thank you.
Oh! Mother?
This is it.
The perfect dress.
Mother, its a beautiful dress.
But its not for my figure.
A well-made dress works
on any figure.
Certainly, Mother.
Youre so willful, Edna.
Just like my sister,
your namesake,
where in her wild youth,
she found herself in the family way.
Your father got her a doctor
and took care of her problem.
She hemorrhaged
and was scarred inside forever.
My mother made me swear Id name
my first daughter after Edna,
- Who could never bear children
of her own.
- [Sighs]
Turn around, Edna.
Well take
the dress she has on.
Mother, I cant sing
in a dress that doesnt fit.
Look at it.
The dress
fits the occasion.
Its you
who doesnt fit.
- [Sighs]
- [Sighs]
[Whispers]
All right.
[Woman Singing Scales]
[Singing Scales]
[Sniffling]
Said the Blues
aint nothin
But a woman
cryin for a man
I said the Blues
Aint nothin
- That is such a beautiful song.
It Sorry.
- Thank you.
- What is it?
- Somethin Ive been
singing all my life.
Spiced up a little.
[Laughs]
Boy, its just, you sing it
like you really mean it.
What are you gonna sing?
Well, I signed up to sing
"Youll Never Walk Alone."
My mother says
its universal.
She says the personal songs
never win.
- They make people dwell on themselves.
- Oh, I dont know about that.
But I do know its more fun
to sing a song that you like
than to try
to please everybody.
Hey, there
- You with the stars
in your eyes
- You know that?
- Rosemary Clooney?
- Love never made
a fool of you
- Yeah.
- You used to be
two eyes
I mean, sing a song
that you like.
And you got a stage,
an audience
and a real pretty dress.
The dress
fits the occasion.
Its a real pretty dress.
[Piano]
When she wants
some lovin
Im sure all you women
will understand
Shell win.
She deserves it.
Try to keep
your man happy
Although you find him
real hard to please
Yeah
- [Applause]
- [Announcer] Thank you, Miss Shelley.
And coming to the end
of the competing vocalists,
Number Nine,
Edna Buxton from Chestnut Hill.
Shell be singing
"Youll Never Walk Alone."
[Applause]
Uh, Miss Buxton
will be singing
"Hey There."
"Hey There."
[Piano]
Hey there
You with the stars
in your eyes
Love never made
a fool of you
You used to be
two eyes
Hey there
You on that
high-flying cloud
Though he wont throw
a crumb to you
You think someday
hell come to you
Better forget him
Him with his nose
in the air
He has you dancing
on a string
Break it
and he wont care
Wont you take
this advice
I offer
Like a mother
Or are you
not seeing things too clear
Are you too much
in love to hear
Is it all going
in one ear
And out
The other
[Applause, Cheering]
And finally,
first prize,
a recording contract
with McMartin Records,
goes to Miss Edna Buxton.
Lets give her a big hand,
ladies and gentlemen.
- [Cheering, Applause]
- Congratulations.
- [Traffic Noises]
- [Woman] How can I reach you
When youre living
- In another world
- [Man] What are you
going to be singing?
- [Edna] Im going
to sing "In Another World."
- Who wrote it?
- I did.
- Oh, okay.
Go ahead, any time.
If I could
just tell you
How my poor heart
Is breaking
Maybe youd think twice
Bout the road
That youre taking
Maybe you would look back
And change your mind
Maybe you would remember
Love you left behind
All I have
is the memory
Of when I was your girl
How can I reach you
When youre living
in another world
When youre living
in another world
Living in another world

I came here months ago.
Supposed to be
this big recording contract.
And I won this prize.
Just all a big publicity stunt.
Bunch of rats. Was it
It was McMartin, right?
Yeah, it was.
It was McMartin.
And now Ive been pounding
the pavement ever since,
only to be told that you just
already have someone like me.
You want me to, uh,
really burst your bubble?
[Sobbing]
Oh, sure. Go ahead.
You know, start bursting.
Well, not only do we all
already have someone like you,
but we all
are trying to get rid
of the someones like you
we already have.
- [Both Laughing]
- Yeah, well.
See, the thing of it is, toots, the
Patti Page/Peggy Lee days, theyre over.
- Yeah.

Yeah. You know,
I
