(00:48):
we get started, I do wantto encourage you, if you've not already,

episode of The Amazing Mister Malone,which is actually the last American episode.
We have a few more episodes tocome with, and I'll tell you a
little bit more about that after theshow. But here now is Haste Maketh

(01:32):
Waste The Amazing Mister Malone operated operatedGet Me the Office of John J.
Malone. The National Broadcasting Company presentsThe Amazing Mister Malone, an exciting half

(02:01):
hour of mystery starring George Petrie asthe lawyer who's practiced before every type of
bar has become a legend. Ourlocale is the city of Chicago, the
time, the present, and thehero of these weekly adventures, the amazing
mister Malone. Malone's the name JohnJ. Malone, attorney and costar law

(02:37):
Tonight. In our study of thecliche, let's explore the possibilities of haste
maketh waste. There's a case inpoint. I give you a Dutch Schneider.
Dutch is a solid looking citizen behindthe mahogany desk at the Belvedere Club.
He's a gambler by professional. Thatdoesn't mean he takes chances. No.
Dutch likes to play it nice andsafe. That probably explains why he

(02:58):
stares with obvious disbelieve at a lighton his desk, which ficks on an
off of appropriate sound of facts.O'Neill, Yeah, what's going on out
there? They're doing any damage?Can't you hear it? No, I'll
take my word for it. They'replaying off a rough I'm glad they're having
fun. Who's in charge? Iam never mind? O'Neil. Do you

(03:23):
want to see me? Yes?Who what's your name, Officer Brooks,
Lieutenant Sidney Brooks. Why wasn't Inotified of this raid? Uh? Would
you mind repeating it? Please?I asked? Why I wasn't warned?
Your boys must have done at leastone hundred thousand dollars worth of damage.
Oh easy, you know who's goingto pay for it? Who you on

(03:43):
my salary? Obviously, O'Neil.What is it, Dutch? Get me
off a haul on the phone.Oh, now I get it. It's
auf of All your lawyer. That'sright. Yet, this is the funniest
thing I've heard yet. You thinkso? I know so? So we
clipped you too. Surprised at you, Dutch? What are you talking about?
I'll bet Arthur soldier bill of goods. It could keep us out of

(04:03):
your head if you paid off tohim. Well, well, he was
kidding it. Arthur Hall has asmuch influence in Chicago as my brother in
law, and even with me onthe force, he can't get himself arrested.
Well, if Hall was bluffing,why wasn't my club knocked off before?
Oh you're just lucky, Dutch.We're understaffed. We didn't get a
wrong to you. I see Ican't get over it. Arthur Hall clip

(04:25):
on a hip character like you.You're right, Lieutenant, that is funny.
But you'll pardon me if I don'tlaugh right now. The joke seems
to be on me. You are, yes, I have the taint of

(04:49):
the office, Peggy bid and Jan'syour phone? Dutch Schneider isn't trying to
reach you all evening? Oh didyou call here? You know? Are

well, what did he say?It wasn't what he said, Darling,
was the way he said it?Listen Peggy Town for a few days.
Really, yeah, something something hasjust come up, remember the Mars estate.

(05:12):
Oh so you don't have to explain, you know, I trust you
implicitly. When you're leaving, I'mtaking the super chief to Los Angeles.
Oh that explains it. That explainswhat are they called? And confirmed your
reservation to Saint Louis. Well Imade a mistake, obviously. We have
fun, Darling. If there's anythingI can do for you here, yeah
there is. I want you tosign this paper. Nothing to be concerned

(05:34):

I right, I'll check your twentyfive Listen, Peggy. You know you
starting right. I think I'm beingvery generous. After all, I'm not
obliged to give you anything. Areyou doing a little double cross? Just
what do you think you're doing?It's not nice. I said, that's

(06:19):
not nice. Hello Peggy, HelloDutch. What are you doing here?
Oh? A couple of things Iwant to take up with you? Would
you mind leaving us alone for alittle while? Missus Hall, No,
Peggy, come back. That's aswell girl you've got there. Now.
I know what you're gonna say.That's good. Then I won't have to

(06:42):
say it. Slip up. Yousee how I've been on the phone all
day. Those boys had no rightto raige your play, but they did
well. I've got an appointment totalk to the commissioner tomorrow. I don't
see how you're going to manage it. Wow, what do you mean?

you on the phone. Oh yeah, I'll be with you in a minute.
I've got to hear this record onour look, chalk, I'm a
busy man. If you're in ahurry, mister Hall, you better take
your business elsewhere. Well oh wait, that's the ticket. M It's pretty,

(07:40):
isn't it. It's debut said yeah. If you know what's responsible for
most of the troubles in this world, mister Hall. People will sign the
wrong value to things. I takemusic for example. That's important because there
is a commonly nominated Look, calc, I didn't come here for a lecture.
There's no extra charge. All right, Hall? What can I do

(08:01):
for you? You want to doa job for me, not particularly why.
I'm a craftsman, mister Hall.I only accept commissions I like,
I'll pay you five hundred dollars.You're not even in my register. You'll
have to go higher thousand. It'sa little better have the money right on

one who bounced you around. That'smy business, as you say, mister
Hall, that's your business. Soif you'll allow me, I'll be getting

(08:45):
down to mine test a minute.Yes, are you Dutch Schneider? That's

before? And I don't know,have you? Why? Sure? You're
well? Go on Dutch. Youwon't hurt my feelings. I'd rather not
take any chances. Frankly, itwon't make much difference. Sit down,

(09:28):
Do you mind if I smoke?M here? Try my brand the King
size? Well, if nothing else, it'll give me a little more time
the match. Sure, catch?Thanks? Well, where do I get
it? Kelk? What's wrong withright here? Aren't you afraid of the

(09:50):
noise? If you didn't notice thesilencer on his baby. Excuse me for
trying to tell you your business?Quite all right? You don't mind talking,
not at all? How'd you findme here anyway? Oh? It
took me a couple of hours,but I managed. What is this a
hideaway? Yes? Nice place?Oh your phonograph? Whose records O mine?

(10:16):
See? You're going for the classical? Whose album is that you've got?
On? The Chekhovsky? Panic?And hid Rubenstein? Have you hear
Horowitz play? I like Rubenstein's betteras you got a lot more fire?
Oh, you're out of your mind. No one can touch Horowitz when it
comes to execution. You want toknow? It's all right? Say tell

(10:41):
me something do? Why is itthe nice guys always get it? There's
no reason why they should look kilk. I don't want to insult you,
but can't we talk this old I'mafraid not well? I know who puts
you up to it? It wasoff a whole. What difference does that
make? Do you have nothing incommon with Hall? Wouldn't you rather work

(11:03):
for me? Definitely? But it'stoo late now. Why you can't tell
me that you're afraid of Hall?And I don't know what he gave you?
But I'll pay you ten thousand dollarsfor that gun fully loaded. I
don't know, DNS. I've neverdone anything like this before, and if

(11:26):
I did now, I wouldn't wantyou to think that the money you're offering
had any effect on my decision.Oh, of course not. There was
something about that fellow Hall that justrubbed me the wrong way. All right,
DNS, get the door. Itwas just one of those things,

(11:54):
just one of those crazy things,one of those bells that now un rings,
just one of those don't stop onmy accompans malone. I think he's
seeming real pretty well. I alwayssay a pretty girls, there's a pretty
tune. Imagine coming into my officeand finding you. How did you get
any here? Anyway? I toldthe superintendent I would offending to it.

(12:16):
Good for you. I'm glad youmade yourself at home, you know mine.
My taking off my shoes not abit. I'd like to see people
comfortable. You want to get somebetter reading the tune? Oh you don't
care for Professor wigmore on evidence?I thought it was pretty dull. There's
a racing for him, you overlook, No, I didn't this last week.
Oh I'm terribly sorry, miss saysOh, Peggy Hall, it's not

(12:37):
the one to be sorry. ShouldI put my shoes in? Why be
formal? You know, Malone,you're a welcome change for most of the
lawyers. I know, you knowmany. I've got one in the family,
Arthur Hall. Here we hear them. Unfortunately he's my husband. Oh
I once heard him say he'd neverdo business with you. Well, that's
a wonderful recommendation. But I thought, can you get me a divorce on

(13:01):
what grounds? Well? This maycome as a shock to you, missus
Hall, but judges are peculiar people. Before they grant a divorce, they'd
like to know if there's a reasonI've got a millionaire or your husband contested.
I don't think. I don't thinkso on our luck, lieutenant,
I'm business. Oh you're always busy, Malone. Why don't you take a
little time out? Was I'm notcalling Brook neither or mine? Oh?
This lady's Peggy Hall, isn't shehold? I'm a detective. Like to

(13:24):
see how I operated. Well,at first I went to your home and
the maid told me you left amessage that if anybody looked for you,
you'd be closeted with the legal egal. He is what home alone? You
are a death Look Brooks, whatare you getting that? Didn't she tell
you? All she told me isshe wanted to get rid of her husband.
She did. We just found hisbody. Put your shoes on,
Lucy. Those stone floors at headquarterscan be awfully cold. On your tutties.

(13:50):

the corridor of mystery for the doorwayof danger and to the realm of high
adventure on this your NBC station.And now back to the amazing mister Malone.

(15:20):
There's an old cliche. It's alwaysdarkness before the dawn. Judging by
the signs here, daybreak was wayoff. While Lieutenant Brooks gazed about my
office, I watched my client,Peggy Hall, put on her shoes.
A little thing like that can tellyou a lot to me. He had
proved two things. One my clientwas innocent, and two she had lovely

(15:41):
ankles. Do you like what yousee? I love it? Are you
gonna hate me for asking this?Peggy? But did you kill your husband?
I look like the kind of girlwho would. Oh, you're a
bound alone? I know. Iought to wash my mouth out with salt,
all right? Love her? Whodo you think did it? I
have no idea, But if youasked me who would have I'll amend the
question. Dutch Snyder for one fortwo I think be enough to hold you

(16:06):
for a while, or like Dutchcould hold me for life. What do
you have against Arthur? Arthur convincedme was a man of influence. Oh,
I get it. How much doyou nick Dutch for? I really
don't know. It must have beena substantial them up. That's quite an
achievement to take money away from misterSchneider. I wonder if I could get
in Dutch. I'll let your kidsknow if I score. All right,

(16:36):
you guys, will you step onit? Those dice tables will never be
ready in time? And where's theroulette set up? Oh? We gotta
here, Dutch. Well, it'sdoing me no good in that case.
Get it open? Hello, Dutch? Why if it isn't the amazing mister
Malone? You mean the amazed misterMalone? I thought they closed you up?
They did. What's all the activityfor? Well, it gives the

(16:56):
boys something to do. I'd liketo see them occupied amount of trouble.
Oh what's on your mind, counselorcan we talk someplace so there's less changer
of me being hit on the headby a hammer? Sure, come into
the office. What's your step?I always tried to so that I think

(17:22):
I'm alone, never says no,So just a squirt? Are you are?
Thanks? Well? Salo saloon?M all right, Malone? To
what do I owe the pleasure?Well, for one thing, I was
wondering whether you follow a successor atthe Hall? Uh successor? Well,

(17:45):
they used to represent you, anI'm glad you mentioned that, Malone.
I could use a good lawyer.Wish I could think of one. And
what's wrong with you? Me?Oh, I got a client? So
what so? I'm afraid your interestsare diametrically posed. But how do you
figure that? I'm representing Peggy Hall? Don't tell me the police believe she
killed her husband. How did youknow he was dead? From several sauces?

(18:11):
As a matter of fact, Ithink there was a flash on the
radio about an hour ago, butdid say nothing much, only that someone
sent a thirty two slug through Arthur'sbrain in his office and the cups were
holding a hot suspect. But theydidn't drop any name. It's Peggy Hall.
Well, now that proves that they'reout of their minds. Why would
Peggy kill him? It seems authorssigned everything he owned over to her and
she didn't want to give it back. That's no motive. I forgot to

(18:33):
mention that everything Arthur owned amounted toclose to a hundred thousand dollars. Hey,
you lawyers do all right? Well, there are lawyers and lawyers Dutch.
Now, Arthur had a few softtouches. He convinced a couple of
clients he had political connections, andhe was rooking them for a fat little
fee each week. You don't haveto tell me I was one of the
principal contributors. So I've heard.What gets me is why the police haven't

(18:53):
talked to you. Well, maybethey had. Would you tell him obviously
enough to convince them that I didn'tmurder offer? I want to try convincing
me. Where's my percentage? How'syour drink or the drink? Fine?
Fine? Want one for the road? Oh I'm in a hurry. I
can spare another few minutes. WellI can't. That's okay, Dutch.

(19:15):
You don't have to beat me overthe head. I can take a hint.
See you're on the four road.Hello Dutch, Why kilt? You're

(19:36):
the last man I expected to see. I hope you don't mind my dropping
around. I brought over the Horrowitzrecording of the piano concerto. I thought
maybe you'd like to compare it withthe Rubenstein job. He did really come
for that? Did you count?I guess there's no use of my trying
to kid you, no use atall. It's funny, Dutch. I've
known you how long? Maybe twentyfour hours, and yet I feel that

(19:57):
there's a bond between us. Doyou you know me better than I do
myself? For example, I usedto think that I was interruptible. Oh
come now, no, I meanit. I always prided myself at once
I undertook an assignment. Nothing couldswerve me for my purpose. But you

(20:18):
did, didn't you, Dutch?And you did it with money because I
do that. Yes, you putideas in my head. Get to the
prodeclke. Well, all I'm tryingto say is that suddenly money has become
tremendously important to me, so Iwant lots of it. And do I
look like Fort Knox? Well areasonable fact similar I sold you your life

(20:44):
at nine o'clock last night for tenthousand dollars. That was pretty cheap,
Dutch. I bet I could havegotten five times then easily. If I
had that much here, why you'dbetter start raising it otherwise, Otherwise I
go to a fellow named John J. Malone. Oh you wouldn't do that?
Why not? I just don't thinkyou would. When you're wrong Dutch?

(21:04):
How can I be? You admitthat? I know you're better than
you do yourself, and I don'tsee you going to John J. Malone.
I just don't see it. Hello, mister Malone, are you busy?

(21:40):
My name is George Kelk. Georgekel Yes, you don't know me,
but it might be worthwhile if youdid. I know who killed Arthur
Hall? Is this a rip?I'll let you judge that for yourself.
What time does your office staff leave? All right, I'll be there at
six. It'll be much easier withjust the two. Let me see if

(22:07):
we understand each other. Kilke.I think we do now? Malone?
You'd be willing to repeat the samestory in court? Why not? While
you admit it that you've been hiredby Arthur Hall to take care of Dutch
Schneider. I'm nothing happened to dutchedidn't then what can happen to me?
You've got a nice logical mind,thank you. What do you think would
be duchess reaction when he learned you'vebeen up here. Oh I'm not worried,
Malone. I can look after myself. You want me to prove it?

(22:30):
Yeah, all right? Open upyour desk drawer. Why go on?
Start with the bottom one on theright. What are you talking about?
You've got a recording machine somewhere inthem, Malone. You've been taking
down every bit of this dialogue.How do you know that? Oh you're
talking to a man who keeps upwith the latest in that field. I
do a little home recording myself.Who who thought of placing the microphone in

(22:56):
the waste paper basket? Me pickit up from a story? It's read
cute. Yeah, all right,get away from that desk. Put away
that gun, kilk, I said, get away from that. How do
you feel concent Oh that's too bad. Next time, Remember you're not dealing

(23:21):
with an amateur. I never auditionedfor free listen, get them a little
more water. No, no,come on my loan, Come on me.
Oh take it easy, jump somethingnew has been at it? Yeah,

(23:41):
three stitches in your scalp. Ohwhy did you get here, lieutenant?
About an hour ago? Let melet you see that. Oh,
there's nothing to see there you'll haveto buy yourself a little record it.
Listen, Brooks, A boy namedGeorge Keilk was up here. Yeah,
I know you're kept babbling his lip. Well he can clear Peggy Hall.

(24:03):
Tell you I had the evidence onthat machine. He stopped trying to hum
me. Alcohol originally hired this KelkAbump Dutch Schneider. Only Dutch was lucky
and bought his way out. Nowis that a strong enough motive point for
Dutch getting back at Altho Hall.Yeah, I'd be out of my mind
to say it was. Well,kel can prove the whole business. No,
we can't, Lieutenant. I talkedwith him and he told me that
at nine o'clock last night he wentup and braced Dyke. Well, that's
way you run into trouble. Idon't see why. It's because you haven't

(24:23):
seen the autopsy report. Altho Hallwas dead at eight what have That's right,
a full hour before Kelk even gotto Dutch. They better get the
aspirin alone. Your headaches are justbeginning. You're listening to the amazing mister

(24:45):
Malone. Now that vacation time ishere, the danger of forest fires increases
all over the country. Millions ofpeople will be enjoying the mottins and woodlands,
hiking, camping and fishing trips.Of course, the more people there
are in the forests, the greaterdanger there is a fire. But we

(25:06):
can prevent forest fires if each ofus will be careful. Crush out cigarette,
cigar and pipe ashes, break matchesin two after using, drown all
camp fires, then stir and drawnagain. Forest fires are a shameful waste
because they can be prevented. Rememberonly you can't prevent forest fires. And
I'll back to the amazing mister Malone. But Georgie Kelp made me sick.

(25:44):
Lieutenant Brooks wasn't exactly what the doctorordered either. When I refuse to believe
that Arthur Hall was killed an hourbefore Kelk even met Dutch Snider, Lieutenant
showed it to me in black andwhite. They are malone. Now would
you behave one of this autopsy reportcome through around six fifteen tonight? Why
don't you call me? I triedtill but you were around. Why you
could have left? Oh you gotany other leads? No? Your client,

(26:07):
missus Hoggs still refuses to tell uswhat she did with the gun,
the one she bought three months agoin a pawn shot. Why well,
I hear her tell it. Shewas afraid with Arthur away from home so
often that's possible. But why'd shebuy it under a phony name? She's
a woman? Oh of course thatexplains everything. Well, how'd you finally
run it down for the car thepawnbroker? Remember she was driving a Nash

(26:29):
She got the first four numbers ofthe license to the observant. Boy,
what kind of a gun was it? Police special? Is that what it
was used on? Hall? Sluggly? Pride out of the wall was too
bad a to tell? Look,Lieutenant Peggy didn't kill her husband. It's
all out of character. Oh that'sgood, that is. It's been all
of sixty minutes with the girl already, You've got around a lot, I
tell you. Wait a minute,Oh, I'm an original idiot. Boy,

(26:52):
I've been saying that for years.Where would she think I got to
see her immediately? Why? Ijust thought of something in the way my
mind is functioning lately. I can'ttake a chance of for getting it.
Shall we go? If there's anythingI can do, Peggy, anything at
all, I want you to letme know. Thank you. Jus what

(27:14):
I can't think of the thing alone'staking care of everything. Well. Much
as I disliked the guy, I'vegot to admit he's capable. But if
you want anybody else, well,Peggy Helone, what happened to you?
I used my head when I shouldn'thave. Oh, I'm sorry. I
didn't realize you had company. That'sall right, Counselor, I'm leaving doing
on my account Dutch they are,Lieutenant here as a call out for Georgie

(27:36):
Kelk Kelk. Hadn't you heard hewas up to see me to night?
I didn't think he would. Whynot? I didn't think he knew anything
about half his murther, you're righthe didn't. Hey, Malone, you
said there was something he wanted toask missus Hall. Oh yeah, I'm
glad you're reminded me. Lieutenant,I almost forgot again you've got any plans
for to night? Peggy? That'snot funny, Malone. Oh, I'm
serious. I'd like to take youout. Hey, Haven't I got anything

(27:59):
to say about that? I don'tget me wrong, Lieutenant. With the
housing shortage what it is, Iwouldn't leave you with an empty room.
Mister Schneider can move in and takeher place. How about that, Dutch?
What are you turn to say?Malone? You killed Arthur Hall there,
I said it, and I'm glad. I can't believe it, Malone.

(28:33):
Don't believe one but Schnyder killed arSuit yourself, Peggy, but it
obviously had to be one of youin that case, I'm glad you pick
Dan Dutch. What convinced you hewould kill him? That gun you're missed?
Late Lieutenant Brooks said it was apolice special and that's a thirty eight
caliber job? What does that prove? When I asked Brooks if he was
positive the bullet was fired from apolice special, he admitted they couldn't tell

(28:53):
for sure. So how come whenI first went to see Dutch Schneider,
he knew definitely it was a thirtytwo. Oh, Dutch must have had
inside information the very best. Afterthe raid on his club, Dutch went
to your home and beat the devilout of Arthur. Why didn't you kill
him there? Arthur must have promisedto return the money he got from him.
How could Arthur do that? Hesigned over practically everything he owned to

(29:14):
meet sure and then when Dutch realizedhe had no chance of recouping. He
went to your husband's office and killedhim there. But it in between Arthur
hired Georgie Kelk. All the timeKelk located Dutch, Arthur was dead.
Should I say I'm sorry? Notif you don't feel like it. But
you don't want to let this prejudicueagainst Oh man, Oh it won't.

(29:34):
I know now the type I canhandle, and when I see one of
the other kind, I'm going tostart running. How do you recognize the
other kind? That's easy. They'relawyers. Good night, mister Malone.

(30:02):
Well, like the man says,that's all there is, There ain't no
more, which merely means this isthe last Malone show in the current series.
If you want us back, allyou gotta do is say the word.
When it comes to that department.You're the judge and jury, so
here's hoping you'll be dropping us aline at the office and that the verdict
will be a favorable one. GoodNight and good luck. George Petrie will

(30:26):
starred as John J. Malone withLarry Haynes as Lieutenant Brooks. Our program
is written by Eugene Wang and directedby Richard Lewis. The Amazing Mister Malone
is based on a famous character createdby Craig Rice and produced by Bernard L.
Shubert. The events in this storywere fictional, and any resemblance to
persons living or dead is entirely coincidental. Fred Collins speaking, the amazing Mister

(30:51):
Malone has come to you from NewYork. Stay tuned for the man called
X overmost NBC stay welcome back.Well, listeners did not ask for another

(31:14):
season of Mister Malone, so thisepisode ended it with its refined hit man.
This was the second refined hit manwe'd seen on Mister Malone. I
think the last one was into ordersomething. Though there is an Australian series
in addition, there is actually therewas an adaptation done for the Old Gold

(31:40):
Comedy Theater that was a little bitmore consistent with the books, even though
the character was named Michael Malone ratherthan John Malone. So we'll bring you
that episode next week and then we'llget into the Australian episodes we have all
