We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.

Jane Wyman and Dennis Morgan enjoying the radio in Jane's dressing room between scenes of "The Lady Takes A Sailor" at Warners. w HEN Jane Wyman's sailboat capsizes in "The Lady Takes A Sailor," naturally she's frightened, but when she's rescued by a man who says he's Davey Jones and that his old underseas tank is his locker, well, she's plumb scared to death. To make matters worse, Davey (Dennis Morgan) explains the only way he can run the tank is to submerge. What Jane does not know, of course', is that Dennis is making secret tests for the Navy. She insists on taking pictures of the craft, and to stop her Dennis gives her knockout drops. Jane comes to, alone and dazed, on a beach. From then on, it's a merry chase with Jane trying to catch Dennis, Dennis trying to get possession of Jane's film. Jane dubiously accepts a lift from Dennis Morgan after her sailboat turns over. Before the mishap, Jane, happy and carefree, was merrily sailing along on a light breeze. Jane is not overjoyed when Dennis tells her in order to travel he must submerge.
