Synopsis

Jackie Lang had always wanted to act, but was also too self conscious to go on stage. When Allan Brady, the new drama teacher, held auditions, she reluctantly tried out, and won the starring role. After weeks of working side by side, Jackie fell in love with Allan, but as she entered the theater on opening night, Margaret, Allan's fiancée ran to them wishing them luck. Heartbroken, she sat in the dressing room and decided the show had to go on, and the heartbreak and pain gave her the energy to go on.

Synopsis

Donna Blake was hopelessly in love with Bill Carson, but she was a plumber's daughter and Bill was the son of a wealthy land developer. They came together when Bill was selected to write lectures for the local radio station and Donna was chosen to read them on-air. After telling his father he wanted to marry Donna, Jeb insisted she prove she is not interested in the family fortune. Donna overheard Jeb plotting to use land earmarked for a new hospital for his own development and reported this on the radio. Thinking her chances with Bill had ended, she found his love remained powerful.
