Transcript

[Host]

Welcome back to Case Closed Mystery and Crime from the golden age of Radio. Every [e-mail]. our first story comes from the Sounds of Darkness. This week we'll hear pressure point from August 25, 1967. After that, it's this is your FBI and the plastic profile. That story aired January 30, 1948.

[Lee Masters]

Well, I thought maybe Paris. London too. Great places for a honeymoon.

[Mary Bowers]

We can go any place we like, Bran.

[Lee Masters]

You're cute. Mary, I'd be happy if we stayed right here.

[Mary Bowers]

Life is no coasting downhill.

[Lee Masters]

Yeah, you're sure right. And I'm gonna take this business of being married real serious.

[Mary Bowers]

Darling, you better slow down.

[Lee Masters]

Yeah.

[Johnny Bridges]

Hey, hey.

[Lee Masters]

The brakes, Mary. That they won't work.

[Johnny Bridges]

Goodyear presents the Sounds of Darkness. Good evening. The Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company, makers of passenger truck and tractor tires. For every request in South Africa's farming, commerce and industry bring you Lee Masters, the blind detective who challenges the sounds of darkness. In tonight's Sounds of Darkness, you will hear Tony J. As Lee Masters and James White as Johnny Bridges. Others in the cast are Melody o' Brien, John Hayter, Kerry Jordan and Hugh Rouse. Now let's join the world of Lee Masters in tonight's Sounds of Darkness. Pressure Point. Oh, come in, lee.

[Lee Masters]

This is Ms. Bowers. Ms. Mary Bowers. How do you do, Ms. Bowers? My assistant, Johnny Bridges. Lee Masters, FBI agents.

[Mary Bowers]

How do you do, Mr. Masters?

[Johnny Bridges]

Sit down.

[Lee Masters]

Sit down here, Lee. Oh, thanks.

[Mary Bowers]

He's blind.

[Johnny Bridges]

Oh, yes, Miss Bars.

[Lee Masters]

Lee Masters is blind, Miss Bars. We're often distracted by all we see. Lee, isn't his powers of concentration, deduction and heightened senses other than sight quite extraordinary? And I think in your case, we might be able to make particular use of them. That's why I especially asked headquarters to send Mr. Masters here to help out.

[Mary Bowers]

I really don't see why, Mr. Bolt. I mean, all I want is for somebody to talk to Bran and protect him for a while.

[Lee Masters]

Whether you like it or not, Ms. Bowers, you are an important person. Mary Bowers, only daughter of Len Bowers, died in 46, leaving a fortune estimated at 26 million made from marketing the package rather than the goods. Mrs. Bowers pre deceased him by two years and the entire fortune was left in trust to the daughter, Mary Bowers. The income to be enjoyed by her so long as she remains single. On marriage, a quarter of the fortune goes to her. The remainder will to the Bowers Foundation. The Denver News, February 24, 1946.

[Mary Bowers]

That's right. But, Mr. Masters, how it's amazing.

[Lee Masters]

Bowers is thinking of getting married, Lee. Huh?

[Mary Bowers]

Oh, but there's nothing like that about brand, Mr. Galway. I mean, not what you're thinking. He'd be the last man to go fortune hunting. And as you know, he's the one these dreadful accidents have been happening to.

[Lee Masters]

Accidents, Ms. Bowers?

[Johnny Bridges]

Oh, yeah.

[Lee Masters]

Brakes of his car tampered with, nearly fatally.

[Johnny Bridges]

An elevator door prized open.

[Lee Masters]

He nearly fell. An electric switch shortage, so he nearly electrocuted himself. Oh, and some more.

[Mary Bowers]

So you've got to protect him from.

[Lee Masters]

The murderer or the murdered. Ms. Powers. I told Mary. I. I told her I didn't want a fuss made. Not even when somebody tried to kill you? They didn't succeed. Let's forget the whole thing, Mr. Masters. Mr. Galway, your fiance might have been killed. Do you want to forget that? I want to be left alone. For somebody to have a crack at you again. Mr. Galway, you like attempts being made on your life? No, of course not. There won't be another attempt.

[Johnny Bridges]

Good day, gentlemen.

[Lee Masters]

No, Mr. Galway, I don't think the next one will be an attempt. I think it might very well be successful. Somebody's after this guy, you reckon? Somebody wanting to marry that fortune themselves. I don't think they need worry. Mr. Galway is married already.

[Johnny Bridges]

Huh. It gets me.

[Lee Masters]

How do you know Galway's married? I can tell because I can't look at them. Faces change, but voices don't. His real name's Galowski, and he was up on a confidence trick charge years ago. I remember he made quite an impassioned appeal to you all to try and understand why I did wasn't for profit or gain. It was purely a friendly gesture. The fact is, I stood to lose more than the man who now accuses me. I don't plead for my wife, who even now is in hospital having a baby. As a matter of fact.

[Johnny Bridges]

Yeah.

[Lee Masters]

And what did he have? Six months to think about it? Come on. Johnny Brand is going to get some phone calls. Let's get the phone tapped and record all his calls.

[Johnny Bridges]

SA.

[Lee Masters]

Mr. Garway got this first call just half an hour ago. Lee. Play it.

[Mary Bowers]

Got back and phoned you at once. I don't understand. Why on earth should the FBI be interested?

[Lee Masters]

I don't know.

[Mary Bowers]

Well, it doesn't matter, darling. You know what?

[Lee Masters]

No. Mary.

[Johnny Bridges]

What?

[Mary Bowers]

I think we should get married at once.

[Lee Masters]

I think that's a great idea. Just great. I always say great minds think alike. Funny enough, if you hadn't suggested they get anything else. Yeah, there was a carnival tickets.

[Johnny Bridges]

This Time. There won't be a next time for you.

[Lee Masters]

You said. There won't be. All right. But I don't know who the other guy is.

[Johnny Bridges]

Listen here, Robert.

[Lee Masters]

If you try anything like that again.

[Johnny Bridges]

So help me, I'll go to the police and tell them the beautiful story. Who I am. Don't make me laugh. How's dear Ms. Bowers?

[Lee Masters]

You leave her alone, you young idiot. You might have killed her.

[Johnny Bridges]

Too bad. And I will next time. Now listen, Robert.

[Lee Masters]

You do anything to her and I'll kill you with my own hands. Don't worry.

[Johnny Bridges]

When it happens to her, it'll happen to you at the same time. Nice, eh? Hello.

[Lee Masters]

I've got nothing more to say to you. That's it. Play it back. That bit right at the end, he said. I say. And then there was a pause. Yeah, sure.

[Johnny Bridges]

My own hands. Don't worry. When it happens to her, it'll happen to you at the same time. Nice, eh? That's it.

[Lee Masters]

Quiet.

[Johnny Bridges]

Hello.

[Lee Masters]

I've got nothing more to say to you. You listen to silences, Lee? Silencers talk loudest. Pass me the directory. We didn't get the caller's number that time. It came right after the first call on the engineer. Hey, you looking for something? The business listed part. They use a lighter paper. All right, Johnny. Clocks and watchmakers.

[Johnny Bridges]

Sure.

[Lee Masters]

Accountants requires. Banks, Carters. Here we are. Read them out. Adams, Burnside. The Vells. The first names. Reg. Adams, Burnside and Fisher. David. Develles, Bruce. Hallam. Rob. Jackson. That one.

[Johnny Bridges]

Rob Jackson. Rob.

[Lee Masters]

Robert. Address? 2230 Southside. In that pause between him saying nice A and hello. On the tape, I can hear clocks ticking more than I can. Well, when we get there, you'll be able to see them. And he called the man on the phone. Robert. Gee, we make a great team. 22, 28, 22, 30. Watchmaker.

[Johnny Bridges]

Yeah.

[Lee Masters]

Watches, clocks, rings. Usual sort of place. All right. Let's go in and see if Robert's the usual sort of man.

[Johnny Bridges]

Sure.

[Lee Masters]

The door is this way? Yeah, this is the place. And the count is over this way. It must be Robert behind it. Young chap. Pale, look. Seedy.

[Johnny Bridges]

Yeah. Is there anything I can show you?

[Lee Masters]

It's a remarkably fine piece of craftsmanship. Oh, you mean this porcelain. A figure of a shepherdess.

[Johnny Bridges]

It's not so good.

[Lee Masters]

Well, you can have it for $20. You might be giving away a fortune, Mr. Jackson. You see the eyes?

[Johnny Bridges]

Made in Germany. Job loss.

[Lee Masters]

Look closely. I don't see anything. Perhaps you're right. For a moment I thought it was Dresden. Well, it's made there, Martin. Keeping a store watching clock mending requires a delicate touch, Mr. Jackson. Your hands are more like those of a mechanic's.

[Johnny Bridges]

I've got a right to a hobby.

[Lee Masters]

Or look, if I like mucking about with things. It's none of your business, is it? We're from the FBI. And everything becomes the business of the FBI sooner or later. Because sooner or later everything has some bearing on criminal activities. Are you accusing me of something? No, Mr. Jackson. Finding out about you.

[Johnny Bridges]

Now look, I've had enough. Now go on, get out. I know my right.

[Lee Masters]

Sure, sure, your rights are within the scope of the law. But when you step out of the law, you're walking into barred places. Hey, that's good.

[Johnny Bridges]

Barred places. See, it means.

[Lee Masters]

I'm sure Mr. Jackson knows what I mean. Johnny, shall we go? Yeah, this way. You know, I'd like to be a clock major. Everything precise, everything fitting, wheels going round in perfect synchronization. I gotta hand it to you, Lee.

[Johnny Bridges]

Neat.

[Lee Masters]

Very neat. Talk of the China shepherdess and his hands get close enough for you to smell the all increase. I smelled more than that.

[Johnny Bridges]

Oh, yeah?

[Lee Masters]

The nicotine stains on his fingers. So what do we know? He smokes too much, he's nervous, and those hands do car repairs more than watches. Not bad. But I learned far more than that.

[Johnny Bridges]

You did?

[Lee Masters]

The stains on his fingers weren't nicotine. They weren't? No. Picric acid, huh? It's a strong dye. Unmistakable smell a dye. And it's used for other things as well. Yeah, such as? Explosives, Johnny. Explosives.

[Johnny Bridges]

I don't get it. Why?

[Lee Masters]

All right, we find Robert Jackson. But why do we have to find a private investigator? If you were going to arrange an accident, wouldn't you have to find out his movements first? Yeah, sure, but I get it.

[Johnny Bridges]

I see.

[Lee Masters]

Hey, so you think the Jackson's gonna blow up Galway? Tick tock. A time bomb. It looks like it, doesn't it? He's got the time bomb. All we've got is the time before the bomb goes off. Oh, go away. Right.

[Johnny Bridges]

Yeah, yeah, we'll put two men onto it.

[Lee Masters]

It's a big case. A big case. Matter of fact, we've been called in to help the FBI out.

[Johnny Bridges]

Yeah? Who are you?

[Lee Masters]

FBI. Oh, you understand, it's a gag. Just a gag to impress the customers. There wasn't anybody on the other end. I'm Lee Masters, this is Johnny Bridges. Hi. Lee Masters.

[Johnny Bridges]

The blind.

[Lee Masters]

The famous Lee Masters. We all have our afflictions, Mr. Shane. Yeah, mine's at home.

[Johnny Bridges]

Well, what can I do for you?

[Lee Masters]

Is a Mr. Brand Galway on your books?

[Johnny Bridges]

Galway?

[Lee Masters]

Well, he's not on our books. I mean, he's not a client. The subject of investigation. Yeah. And the client is Mr. Robert Jackson, 2230 south side. That's right. Just a routine check. He wants to know what Mr. Galway's doing and so on. And what is Mr. Galway doing lately? Well, he's taken off two ways. First, he's taken off in a matrimonial field. Then he's taken off, literally, for the honeymoon. Just a moment. Yeah. He's booked himself and wife on Transcon Flight 208 to Los Angeles and on.

[Johnny Bridges]

To Hawaii on a Pacific flight.

[Lee Masters]

When? Tomorrow. Have you told your client, Robert Jackson?

[Johnny Bridges]

About half an hour ago.

[Lee Masters]

Do you and I should contact him? No, we'll do that now.

[Johnny Bridges]

You are listening to Pressure Point, tonight's Sounds of Darkness, brought to you by Goodyear, the greatest name in rubber. Hey. Hey. Service.

[Mary Bowers]

Service.

[Johnny Bridges]

Anybody there?

[Lee Masters]

Having trouble?

[Johnny Bridges]

Oh, isn't it?

[Lee Masters]

I was.

[Johnny Bridges]

The way. You're in a hurry. Call for a package. Nobody's there. Ah. Here. All right, all right, I'm coming.

[Lee Masters]

I guess he's working on something out back, huh?

[Johnny Bridges]

Oh, sorry to keep you, Mr. Buckland.

[Lee Masters]

A bit of repair work, I couldn't.

[Johnny Bridges]

Yeah. Oh.

[Lee Masters]

Oh, it's.

[Johnny Bridges]

It's you.

[Lee Masters]

In person.

[Johnny Bridges]

Now, look, mister, I was here first. I don't know what business you have with this man, but I'm here to pick up a package.

[Lee Masters]

Go ahead, Mr. Buckland. Oh. Oh, thanks.

[Johnny Bridges]

That package, Mr. Jackson, the one I ordered earlier. Paid for it, too. Here's the check.

[Lee Masters]

Yeah.

[Johnny Bridges]

Mr. Buckland.

[Lee Masters]

Here we are.

[Johnny Bridges]

Oh, thanks. Yeah. Well, I'll see you. I'm sorry to rush. Flying to Fiji first thing in the morning. Bye.

[Lee Masters]

Well, you're in touch with a private agent, Mr. Jackson. He's checking on the movements of Mr. Galway and passing the information on to you. So that's a federal offense, is it? Mr. Galway's real name is Golovsky, and that's your name too, isn't it?

[Johnny Bridges]

Well, so what?

[Lee Masters]

You can use a name without being arrested for it. And being Mr. Galway's son doesn't get you arrested either.

[Johnny Bridges]

His son?

[Lee Masters]

How did you.

[Johnny Bridges]

Well, of course it was obvious, but I didn't know you were onto it, too, Lee.

[Lee Masters]

Your mother died five years ago. She died in a car accident. Your father was driving. And although no charge was brought against him, you believed he'd done it deliberately, and you decided to take the law into your own hands. You can say It. But can you prove it? You're using picric acid out in the back there. You're making explosives. You're a clockmaker. All right, so what do you want.

[Johnny Bridges]

To do about it?

[Lee Masters]

Take you in for questioning. Suspicion's good enough, Flea. We could hold him for a few days. Yeah, but not long enough. How's that?

[Johnny Bridges]

We got him. We got.

[Lee Masters]

What you don't get is that he's already planted his bomb. It's the tone of his voice. You're watching his face. The boys in there are washing his face. I'm listening. He's sure of himself. Not that he'll be arrested, but that he doesn't care. But to blow up his old man. I talk of the dead. I will not have interference. My son is harmless. You can say psychotic if you like, but all his pranks in the past have been just that. Pranks. Pranks, Mr. Galway.

[Johnny Bridges]

Pranks. Har, miss.

[Lee Masters]

And you needn't think telling Mary about my past will make any difference. We love each other. Sure. I didn't tell her about my wife's death, you did. But it hasn't made any difference at all.

[Johnny Bridges]

She phoned.

[Lee Masters]

I explained. She's happy. Mr. Galway, your son's a clockmaker. He knows about explosives. You're going on your honeymoon by plane. What does that suggest to you? You told me yourself. You've taken him in. All right, he's in. We're off on our honeymoon. If he does get at you in a plane, that means your wife is with you and both of you get killed. Not to mention the rest of the passengers. You're the FBI. Mr. Masters is up to you to.

[Narrator]

See that the plane is safe.

[Lee Masters]

We'll do our best. Well, we'll be seeing you, Mr. Galway. I doubt it. But we're going to be on that plane. So will we, Mr. Galway. So will we. Oh, no. Sam. This message the hostess gave me. What's it say? Johnny code 660. HQ about Jackson.

[Johnny Bridges]

Yeah?

[Lee Masters]

Yeah. Reads, subject talking, boasting, quote, they can't do anything about it now, unquote. Ends.

[Johnny Bridges]

Oh, no.

[Lee Masters]

That means he's planted it. Yeah. I'll have a word with Mr. And Mrs. Galway. I just received a message from headquarters. Your son, Mr. Galway, boasts to, quote, they can't do anything about it now. You realize what that means? You took him in. How come he's got away with it? Because he's clever. Even if he hasn't got away with it, he's going to put us through hell until we land.

[Mary Bowers]

What is It? What is it, Brad?

[Lee Masters]

Nothing, dear. Just something that's come up. You're so clever, you do something about it. I tried to, but you didn't cooperate. What's that got to do with it? You're the FBI. It's your job.

[Mary Bowers]

What's your job, Brad?

[Lee Masters]

That fool son of mine really has planted a bomb.

[Mary Bowers]

You're not gonna do anything about it? You're gonna sit there and let us be blown up? Mr. Marison, please.

[Lee Masters]

Mrs. Galway, things are bad enough without having a panic on board. There are other passengers, you know.

[Mary Bowers]

I knew you were a fool. Now I know you're a blind fool.

[Lee Masters]

Easy. Darn. Well, why doesn't he do his job, Mr. Galway? He might have somehow got you to bring it aboard. Did he give you anything? Do you. Do you carry anything he could have planted it in? No, I don't think so. Wallet and luggage, that sort of thing. Haven't got any hand luggage, Mrs. Galway.

[Mary Bowers]

Don't ask me. Through your bungling, we're all liable to be killed.

[Lee Masters]

Johnny. What is it, Link? I may be able to hear the jet noise. Might not drown out something ticking. You go along to the flight deck. Tell the captain who you are and what's happened. Tell him to stand by. Right. Don't rush. Stroll. Okay. I wander down the aisle on my.

[Johnny Bridges]

Way to the washing room.

[Lee Masters]

Good luck. Very good luck. And good listening.

[Johnny Bridges]

What?

[Mary Bowers]

Can't you now look at him wandering away. Says nothing matters.

[Lee Masters]

Well, he's blind. Blind people can hear better.

[Johnny Bridges]

Rush here, rush there. I lived in Denver all my life, and believe me, travel's not for me.

[Lee Masters]

Pardon me. You're Mr. Buckland.

[Johnny Bridges]

I don't know you, sir.

[Lee Masters]

We met in the clock makers.

[Johnny Bridges]

Oh, did we? Well, I don't remember. When I travel, sir, I prefer silence rather than idle chatter with strangers. Silence, sir. It's golden.

[Lee Masters]

Silence. Silence. Of course, the one thing that'll set it off, that's silent.

[Johnny Bridges]

I don't get you, sir.

[Lee Masters]

A package. He gave you a package. The. The clockmaker.

[Johnny Bridges]

Sure. A retirement presentation. I took it in to get the engra.

[Lee Masters]

Have you got it with you?

[Johnny Bridges]

I don't see, sir, what that's got to do with you.

[Lee Masters]

Have you got it with you? The captain says package this man collected from Jackson's when we were there. Is it here?

[Johnny Bridges]

Sure.

[Lee Masters]

It's on the floor here.

[Johnny Bridges]

I. I don't know what you think you're doing, but I was FBI.

[Lee Masters]

I got it. Get the wrappings. Unmistakable. Gel ignite. Where would it be? In the base? Yeah, it unscrews a barometer, aneroid. The higher the plane goes, the lower the pressure the needle moves. Yeah, there's a wire across, but just wait a minute.

[Johnny Bridges]

Lee.

[Lee Masters]

The plane is pressurized, not the luggage hole. Johnny. That was the chance our friend Robert the clockmaker was hoping for. A bulky, awkward package like this will normally go in the luggage compartment. But Robert wasn't to know that we were going to search the plane and luggage. So with the delay, there was no time for Mr. Buckland here to send his package. Luggage freight. Instead, he took it as hand luggage. And thank heaven for that.

[Johnny Bridges]

Good.

[Lee Masters]

Yeah.

[Johnny Bridges]

La.

[Lee Masters]

Dear old la. And ground under our feet. Everybody's got to come down to earth sometimes. I guess I owe you an apology, Mr. Masters.

[Johnny Bridges]

Sure.

[Lee Masters]

I knew my boy was after me, but. Well, I get like all fathers.

[Johnny Bridges]

You think?

[Lee Masters]

He's a good boy, really.

[Mary Bowers]

It's over now.

[Lee Masters]

Not for him. I didn't kill my first wife, you know. It was an accident, pure and simple. But Robert didn't think so. You know, as a matter of fact, after the time I got engaged to Mary here, he didn't really mean me harm. Not harm, but afterwards, I guess. Well, he thought I was responsible for her death. It was just too much for him when I'd marry again. What will happen to him? I mean, it'll be more treatment than penitence. But I think it'll be a long, long time before he can play any more prank.

[Narrator]

Eight years ago in 1940, the number of crimes committed in this country was far below the number now being committed by America's huge army of criminals. With the larger number of crimes has come a greater number of convictions, a greater number of people being sent to prison. And yet, back in 1940, when the last United States census was taken, the number of our fellow citizens who gave their residence as prison was appallingly large, more than 317,000. If that number does not sufficiently impress you, then perhaps you should consider that in these 48 states with a population of more than 130 million, there were only 25 cities housing more people than are currently held in our prisons. Tonight's file opens in a cell in a small prison located in the town in one of our northwestern states. It is early morning, and through the bars can be seen a heavy snowstorm. There are two men in the cell.

[Johnny Bridges]

And one of them is just waking up. Hello there. When did you come in last night. Must have been after I went to sleep. It was. Hey, don't I know you from someplace? I don't believe so. You live around here? No, no, Just passing through. Somehow I know I've seen your kisser before. Hey, wait a minute now. I know there's a picture of you on a circular in the post office. I seen it last week. Funny I should remember just seeing it once like that. Everybody does, especially the police. That's why I'm here. My name's Joe Crawford. Hello, Joan. I'm Slim Baldwin. What are you up for? They're holding me for the FBI. W. That's bad. What's that? It's quiet. Give me that stick. Who are you talking to? Friend of mine. Ox Putman. He sends very well. You can understand this, of course. He just asked us at a time for busting out of here. That's right. Would Mr. Ox Putnam object to company? Not if the company kept his mouth shut. One of my specialties. Okay, and we all go tonight.

[Narrator]

The next morning, at the local railroad station, Special Agent Jim Taylor is met by Sergeant Roberts of the local police.

[Johnny Bridges]

Hello. Hello, Jim. Hello. How are you? Okay, guy. Well, looks like you've had some typical weather. As a matter of fact, the weatherman said that really hasn't stopped. He thinks it'll start again in about an hour. I'll be gone by then, I hope. Well, I don't think so. Jim, I got some bad news. Why, what's wrong, Jeff? Well, the man you came up to get broke out of jail last night. What? He broke out with two others. One of them was caught here at the railroad station. The other a man named Joe Crawford. Still missing. Then he and Baldwin might be together, huh? Yeah, maybe. Let's get going, huh? Okay, Jeff. How'd they get out? Crawford told the guard he wanted to see the warden. The guard opened the door, Crawford grabbed his arm, knocked him down, took his keys. Once they got those, they were as good as out. I think I know what you mean. I remember that cracker box jail you have here. Hey, I thought they were going to build you a new jailhouse. Well, there was a referendum to last election. People voted against. It. Doesn't make much sense to have a good police force, a bad jail. That's what we tried to tell everybody. Now, here we are. Jim, this is the car. Let's head back to the office and see if there's than any word. Is the hideout very far now? No, no, it's that cabin down at the end of the road. See the smoke coming out of the chimney? Someone there? Yeah. Aunt Mary. Your aunt? Nah, nah, she runs to Hideaway. You can hold up there as long as you want. Well, I won't be staying long. I've got to get back to Seattle. Got a dame there? No. Got some money stashed there. Well, you better not make your move too soon. They'll be throwing plenty of pictures of you around. You know how that kisser of yours stays with people. That's true. Hey, what is it? Yeah, I got a great idea for you, Slim. Why don't you get a new face? Well, I've considered that, but I never had the time. Well, you'll have the time now. And Aunt Mary knows a guy who does the best plastic work in the whole state. A legitimate doctor. Well, he was once. He knows all the angles. Why don't you give him a try, huh? I'll think it over. Okay. Well, here we are. Is this Aunt Mary's? Yeah. Oh, boy. You'll have to plow through the snow a little. That's all right. Can you make it okay? Sure, sure. You suppose she's home? Oh, sure, sure. She's always home. Hello, Aunt Mary.

[Mary Bowers]

Jill Crawford?

[Johnny Bridges]

That's right.

[Mary Bowers]

Come in. Come in, Joe.

[Johnny Bridges]

Yeah, go ahead, Slim. Out of Boy it's got a fire in here. Yeah. Ooh, feels good. Aunt Mary, this is Slim Ballroom.

[Mary Bowers]

How do you do, Slim?

[Johnny Bridges]

Hello, Aunt Mary. We. We just busted out of jail.

[Mary Bowers]

You did?

[Johnny Bridges]

Yeah.

[Mary Bowers]

Well, bless you both. Let me fix you a nice hot meal.

[Johnny Bridges]

Busy, Aunt Mary?

[Mary Bowers]

Oh, no. Come in, George. I thought you went in to take a nap.

[Johnny Bridges]

Oh, I'm not tired.

[Mary Bowers]

Oh. Where's your friend Flynn?

[Johnny Bridges]

Oh, he's sleeping. He was knocked out, poor boy.

[Mary Bowers]

Is he an old friend, Joe?

[Johnny Bridges]

No, no, I never seen him till yesterday. He was being held for the FBI. They had circulars on him all over town.

[Mary Bowers]

Well, my, I'm flattered to have a celebrity in the house.

[Johnny Bridges]

He's too much celebrity. That's his trouble.

[Mary Bowers]

What do you mean?

[Johnny Bridges]

Everybody knows his kisser. That's why he got picked up.

[Mary Bowers]

Oh, what a shame.

[Johnny Bridges]

Say, Aunt Mary, is that plastic doc that you used to know still around?

[Mary Bowers]

You mean Doc Smith?

[Johnny Bridges]

Yeah, that's the guy.

[Mary Bowers]

No, he died a few months ago.

[Johnny Bridges]

That's too bad. I had a chance for us to make a real good commission.

[Mary Bowers]

How's that?

[Johnny Bridges]

Well, I talked to Slim on the way out about having his kisser fixed. And a few minutes ago I started on him again. Yes, he finally decided to have it done. I said you could get Doc Smith for the job. I said it would cost him five GS.

[Mary Bowers]

What did he say to that?

[Johnny Bridges]

He said he'd pay it.

[Mary Bowers]

He did?

[Johnny Bridges]

Yeah. Yeah, he's got some dough stashed up in Seattle.

[Mary Bowers]

Joseph, we can't let money like that slip through our fingers.

[Johnny Bridges]

What can you do?

[Mary Bowers]

I know another doctor. I'll have him here tonight. You.

[Johnny Bridges]

Jeff? How did you get Baldwin? Oh, we just recognized him from the wanted circular and picked him up. What was his specialty anyway? Jewel theft. A lot of women thought he was attractive. That's the way he earned his money. Oh, I see. On his last job, he picked up a woman on a train. She was a maid. He talked her into lifting her boss's jewelry on the train. That's right. Who was this Joe Crawford that he escaped with? Well, he's wanted for murder. He shot a cashier in a local factory. Got about 30,000 in cash. But fortunately, he had it all on him when he was arrested. Oh, excuse me. Certainly. Robert speaking. Yeah, they did? When I say. Well, thank you, Mr. Gordon. What was that number again? Yeah, all right, I got it. Thanks a lot. We got a break, Jim. That was a farmer named Gordon Baldwin and Crawford knocked him out and stole his car early this morning. How come he didn't report it until now. But he just came to. Oh. Well, let's get a good description on the car and send out an alarm right away. Right. And, Jeff, I think I'll go out and have a talk with Mr. Gordon here. Here's some more wood for the fire, Aunt Mary.

[Mary Bowers]

Oh, aren't you the good boy, Joe.

[Johnny Bridges]

Say, is Slim still sleeping?

[Mary Bowers]

No, he's been in here visiting with me. I just sent him back to his room. Get ready for the doctor.

[Johnny Bridges]

Oh, when's he coming?

[Mary Bowers]

He should be here any minute.

[Johnny Bridges]

Did you. Did you talk to Slim about the dope?

[Mary Bowers]

Yes. I told him I arranged everything with the doctor. I told him that he didn't have to pay till he got back to Seattle.

[Johnny Bridges]

Did you tell him that we'd go up with him to collect?

[Mary Bowers]

Oh, yes. Mm.

[Johnny Bridges]

Swell, swell. Well, there. How's that for a fire?

[Mary Bowers]

Oh, that's beautiful. You know, it reminds me of a building my departed husband once set fire to.

[Johnny Bridges]

Aunt Mary, you kill me.

[Mary Bowers]

That's probably the doctor now. I let him in. Well, hello, doctor.

[Johnny Bridges]

Hello, Mary.

[Mary Bowers]

Come in, won't you?

[Johnny Bridges]

Thank you.

[Mary Bowers]

Joe. This is Dr. Montgomery, Doc. This is Joe Crawford.

[Johnny Bridges]

Are you, Doc? Fine, fine. Let me have you.

[Mary Bowers]

Cold?

[Johnny Bridges]

Sure.

[Mary Bowers]

Goodness, where are your rippers?

[Johnny Bridges]

You must have forgot them. Miss the patient?

[Mary Bowers]

No, he's in his bedroom.

[Johnny Bridges]

Do you think you can do the job tonight, Doc? Sure, no trouble at all. Got all the instruments in my little black bag. What kind of a face you gonna give the guy? What kind would he like? What kind you got? All kinds. He can look like, eh, Southern Robert Mantell.

[Mary Bowers]

Oh, glamorous.

[Johnny Bridges]

Who are them guys?

[Mary Bowers]

Oh, they're very handsome men. But, doctor, why don't you talk to the patient? After all, he's the one who'll have to make the choice. He's in his bedroom, Doctor. You go right in.

[Johnny Bridges]

Very well. Very well. Hey, Aunt Mary.

[Mary Bowers]

Yes, Joe?

[Johnny Bridges]

This may not be the right thing to ask, but has the doctor been drinking?

[Mary Bowers]

Of course.

[Johnny Bridges]

But how can he operate?

[Mary Bowers]

Operate? The only time he's used a knife in his life is to put butter on his bread.

[Johnny Bridges]

We will return in just a moment to tonight's file which shows how your FBI promotes security for the nation. Now, let's bring this question of security closer to home, Jack. With those youngsters of yours growing as fast as they are, here's something you'll want to see. It's called a fact finding chart for fathers and mothers. Fact finding chart. How's that going to help me? It'll help you, Jack, because you're the kind of man who isn't afraid to face facts squarely. For example, what would happen to your wife and children if you should die unexpectedly? Would they be able to make out all right? Would they have enough money to keep well fed, well housed and well clothed? When you put it that way, Mr. Keating, I couldn't say. But that fact finding chart sounds kind of complicated. Not a bit, Jack. It's the simplest thing in the world. With the Equitable Society's fact finding chart you'll have your answer in five minutes flat. Look, you're guided every step of the way by easy to understand pictures which illustrate the rock bottom expenses your family will have to meet. And when you're finished, you'll have a clear, accurate and complete picture of just what income your family would need during the critical years. Hold your horses, Mr. Keating. What do you mean critical years? The years before your youngest child finishes high school. Years during which the home must have a minimum income to keep it together. I see what you mean, Mr. Keating. Guess I ought to get this fact finding chart. How much do they charge for it, Jack? It doesn't cost you a single cent. The Equitable Society representative in your community will be glad to bring you a copy. Sit down with them, you and your wife together. There's no obligation. And get a true picture of where you stand. Phone in tomorrow to bring you an equitable fact finding chart for fathers and mothers. Or send a postcard, care of this ABC station to the Equitable society at Equi T A B L E. The Equitable Life Assurance Society of the United States. And now back to the FBI file. The plastic profile.

[Narrator]

Tonight's case from the files of your FBI lays bare the primary emotion of every criminal. The desire to get his hands on what belongs to someone else. No matter what the cost and physical pain or mental torture might be to the victim. When we in this nation reach a point where every person in every section is truly a civilized human being, then there will be no more crime wave nor any criminals. Because the true stamp of civilization is a deep compassion for your fellow human beings. But until we reach that utopian day, it is our bounden duty to cooperate at every turn with our local police and with every other law enforcement agency to see to it that the war against crime is waged successfully. Tonight's file continues in the small office of Sergeant Roberts of the local police.

[Johnny Bridges]

Come ahead, Jeff. As you got to see Mr. Gordon. Yes, yes, he had a pretty nasty blow on the head. Could he give you anything? Yes, I showed him Baldwin's picture on the wanted circular and that picture of Carford that you had. He identified both as the men who stole his car. Well, at least we're sure of that much. Well, if they stay on any main highway, they should be picked up pretty soon, huh? I would think so, Jim. That alarm has been on the local radio station every 15 minutes since this morning. Now. Pardon me. Robert speaking. Yes, Mr. Atkinson. When you're sure. Yes, I see. All right. Thank you very much. That was a Mr. Atkinson, Jim. He just heard the alarm on the radio and he saw the car. Yeah? When? This afternoon. It went past his house up to nine. Where is that? About 35 miles from here. He also said that he noticed the car because it was the only one that went past this house today. We might be able to follow the tracks then. If it doesn't snow again. Yes, we can get out there first thing in the morning. We don't have to go by car, Jim. We've got a helicopter. I'll fly us out there as soon as it gets light. Hey, Aunt Mary.

[Mary Bowers]

What is it you?

[Johnny Bridges]

Slim ain't dead, is he?

[Mary Bowers]

What? Gracious, no. What makes you think that?

[Johnny Bridges]

Well, I just looked in that room where he is. He's out cold.

[Mary Bowers]

Well, naturally.

[Johnny Bridges]

Oh, is that. Is he supposed to be that way?

[Mary Bowers]

The doctor was very generous with the chloroform.

[Johnny Bridges]

Oh. How long will he be out?

[Mary Bowers]

About another hour.

[Johnny Bridges]

Then can he take off those bandages?

[Mary Bowers]

No, son. They won't come off for a few weeks yet.

[Johnny Bridges]

What? But I don't want to wait here that long.

[Mary Bowers]

He won't have to. Can travel as soon as he regains.

[Johnny Bridges]

Consciousness with his head all bandaged like that?

[Mary Bowers]

Well, of course. I'll get him a cap with ear muffs and with his coat collar turned up. No one will notice him.

[Johnny Bridges]

I hope that car we picked up holds together until we get to Seattle.

[Mary Bowers]

Oh, we're not using that car. Might be hot. We'll use Doc Montgomery's.

[Johnny Bridges]

What about the doctor's dough?

[Mary Bowers]

He's already gotten everything. He's going to get you.

[Johnny Bridges]

You paid him?

[Mary Bowers]

Gave him two bottles of whiskey. That should keep him very happy.

[Johnny Bridges]

Suppose the doctor gets in touch with Slim and asks for his dough.

[Mary Bowers]

How's he gonna do that?

[Johnny Bridges]

Well, I saw Slim write down his address on a pad for the doc.

[Mary Bowers]

As soon as he has a couple more drinks, get it back from him.

[Johnny Bridges]

Right now.

[Mary Bowers]

Give me a hand here. I'm looking for something.

[Johnny Bridges]

What, Aunt Mary?

[Mary Bowers]

My best show. Gotta dress up if we're going to Seattle.

[Johnny Bridges]

Now. Jim, we should be over Nine Mile Hill in a couple of minutes. Now, how low can we fly this thing? Fly it as low as we have to. We can land any place. I never been in one of these before. They're great for up in this country. Jim, things certainly do look beautiful from up here. Looks like a Christmas card. Yeah. Jeff, is that Nine Mile Hill straight ahead there? Yeah, that's it. Be over it in a few seconds. Now, Atkinson was right. There's only one set of tire tracks going up. It's. Let's follow the road. There's still only one set of tracks. Like it didn't start to snow again. Jeff, look. The tracks are turning off the road. Where? On the left there. The trees. Oh, yes, I see it. There's a car down there, right next to that cabin. Yeah, I'll drop down. Sedan, Jeff? Yeah. Looks like a Buick. Left rear fenders in it. That was in the description. I'd say that was the car that was stolen from Mr. Gordon. I'm going to land in that clearing in back of the house. You warming up, Aunt Mary?

[Mary Bowers]

Oh, so certainly. I love this weather. How about you, Slim?

[Johnny Bridges]

I just hope this face of mine turns out all right.

[Mary Bowers]

Oh, Slim, it's going to be beautiful.

[Johnny Bridges]

How do you know?

[Mary Bowers]

Well, the doctor showed me your face before he put the bandages on.

[Johnny Bridges]

Huh? What do I look like?

[Mary Bowers]

Like a drink. God.

[Johnny Bridges]

Pretty worried about how it would turn out.

[Mary Bowers]

Why?

[Johnny Bridges]

Well, I smelled whiskey on the doctor's breath just before I took the anesthetic.

[Mary Bowers]

Oh, he just had one little nip.

[Johnny Bridges]

Really drunk when we left.

[Mary Bowers]

Well, he wanted to relax after such a difficult operation. Now, be a good boy and stop worrying, Slim. He's gonna look fine.

[Johnny Bridges]

Aunt Mary, how long since you've been to Seattle?

[Mary Bowers]

Oh, Kevin, not for years.

[Johnny Bridges]

Oh, well, this will be like a vacation for you then, huh?

[Mary Bowers]

Just say so. First thing I'm gonna do is go to a department store and do some shopping.

[Johnny Bridges]

Ah, gee, that's just like a dame spending all your money on clothes.

[Mary Bowers]

Money. Gracious, Joe, I didn't say he was going to buy them. You're much too young to remember, but in my day, I was the best shoplifter west of the Mississippi.

[Johnny Bridges]

Jeff, keep your gun drawn. Cover me. I'll throw open the front door. Okay, here we go. I'm going in, Jeff. I'm right with you. Someone in the next room? Come on, Jeff, let's take a look. I have here a little bottle of Wonder Syrup. It's nature of the God. Hello, Doc. Huh? Come on, Doc. Get with it. What are you doing here? Know you from someplace? Can't place the face. I arrested you for selling snake oil last year, remember? Oh, yes, yes, that's right, you did. Oh, is he old medicine show man. Calls himself a doctor, More or less the town drunk. What would he be doing? I don't know. Look, let's show him the pictures of Crawford and Grove and see what he can tell us. Good idea. Oh, a doctor. Yes, sir, what can I do for you? Take a look at these pictures, will you? Fine pictures. Fine pictures. Yes, we know they're fine pictures. These men were here. Where are they now?

[Mary Bowers]

Gone.

[Johnny Bridges]

Gone? Oh God, they were very rude. I don't think he's going to be much help to us, Jim. We better look around the rest of the place and see if we can get a lead. But I know where they went. You do? Well, yes. Come on, Montgomery, make some sense. They went to Seattle. Fellow gave me his address. You want it? Yes, of course I want it. It's. Huh. Oh, it's on a little pad. Must be in the other room. Hey, Jim, I noticed that pad on the table in there. Come on. Here it is, Jim. But there's nothing on the pad. Wait a minute, Jeff. There's some indentations. Yeah, but they're not deep enough to read. I got a flashlight. Uh huh. Turn it on. Hold it parallel to this sheet of paper, will you? Okay. This way. That's it. There. See all that accents the indentations. Yeah. Looks like an address there, Jeff. Mm.

[Lee Masters]

If I can make it out.

[Johnny Bridges]

4411 Canal Street, Seattle. You know, the doc could be telling the truth, Jim. Yeah, yeah, I know. I wish I could go with you, but that's across the state line and out of my territory. Well, let's fly back to the airport. I'll catch the first plane to Seattle.

[Mary Bowers]

My Slim. Isn't this a nice apartment?

[Johnny Bridges]

Thank you, Aunt Mary. See? Now, can I get you anything?

[Mary Bowers]

Well, if it wouldn't seem too rude, you could get us the money.

[Johnny Bridges]

Money? Yeah, the five G's for the dock. Oh, of course. I'll get it right now. Gee, you keep that much cash here? This wall safe is pretty well concealed.

[Mary Bowers]

Mercy, I'd be afraid to see.

[Johnny Bridges]

I think they extend professional courtesy. Here we are. He's got a gun. That's right, Joe.

[Mary Bowers]

Slim, you put that away. You'll hurt somebody now.

[Johnny Bridges]

I will if you two don't get out of here. What is this? Pretty apparent, isn't it? I'm saving myself $5,000.

[Mary Bowers]

Young man, this is most unethical.

[Johnny Bridges]

It's just good business, that's all. Look, Slim, what are we going to tell the doc? Don't give me that. You had no intention of pain, but you got a new kiss.

[Mary Bowers]

You're wrong, Joe.

[Johnny Bridges]

What?

[Mary Bowers]

He's still got the same face under those bandages.

[Johnny Bridges]

What are you talking about?

[Mary Bowers]

That man wasn't a doctor. He didn't touch your face.

[Johnny Bridges]

You're lying. I can. I can feel it.

[Mary Bowers]

What you feel is plain plaster. If you don't believe me, take off the bandage and see for yourself. Go ahead. Take him off.

[Johnny Bridges]

I will. Is that the truth, Aunt Mary?

[Mary Bowers]

Yes, Joe. He'll find out when he looks at himself in that mirror.

[Johnny Bridges]

Wait. You dirty.

[Mary Bowers]

Get his gun, Joe.

[Johnny Bridges]

Right. Let it go, Paul. Now. Now we take over.

[Mary Bowers]

Good. What? Joseph? Now take a look and see what Mr. Baldwin really has in that wall safe.

[Johnny Bridges]

There you are, all of you. Huh? A cop. I'm a special agent of the FBI.

[Mary Bowers]

Wait. You just arrived in time, young man. That fella there with his face half covered with bandages is a criminal.

[Johnny Bridges]

I want you, too, Mrs. Dawson. And I'm taking these two to a jail they won't break out of.

[Narrator]

Slim Baldwin was sentenced to 20 years for theft from an interstate shipment. Joe Croppert was given 102 years and turned back to the local authorities for prosecution for murder. Mary Dawson received two years and a $1,000 fine. And the bogus doctor's probation was revoked and he was returned to jail for one year. And thus, once more, did cooperation between a local police officer and the special agent of your FBI result in the successful pursuit of a group of criminals. The method of reading indented writing which led Special Agent Taylor to the address in the Seattle is only one of many skills in scientific crime investigation which form a part of the training given to every special agent before he becomes a duly authorized and qualified member of your national law enforcement agency. Your FBI.

[Johnny Bridges]

Now, my friend Jack Stone says he has one more question about the Equitable Society's fact finding chart for fathers and mothers. What is it, Jack? You said this chart is free, Mr. Keating, but there must be some strings attached to it. No, Jack. Not one. This chart was originally created as a helpful service to members of the Equitable Life Insurance Society. Now it's being offered to the audience of this program. Your Equitable Society representative will be glad to supply you with a chart. What you do after that is strictly your own business. So make a note to phone your Equitable Society representative soon. Or send a postcard here of this ABC station to the Equitable Life Assurance Society of the United States.
