In the fourth in our series of Lux Radio Theater programs, we move beyond the Cecil B. DeMille years, to the William Keighley era. DeMille left his position as host after nine years, following a dispute with the American Federation of Raio Artists (AFRA). After months of on-air auditions Keighley was named permanent host in November 1945, Keighley was a film director whose  credits included; Brother Rat, The Streat With No Name, and The Man Who Came to Dinner. Today's episode of Lux, from November 15, 1948, stars John Garfield and Jane Wyman in Body and Soul.
