In every city and small town throughout the country, there
are certain individuals who claim to have supernatural powers medium.

police and a district attorney concern. What does you see
when a person starts going to fortune tellers, he or
she is a marked man or woman. He or she
is registered, as it were, by a great mind registered ring. Yes,
everything about the client is noted by the fortune tellers,

(02:36):
and so on, treats, his character study, weighed and measured.
Clients are urged to talk about themselves, the possible names

the most of them, they constitute the most dangerous part
of the racking. Or how do you mean? Well, when

it's possible to talk to the loved ones who died,
they work on that individual's mind, influence that individuals to

I want you John and you William to accompany me
to the seance. Professor Wendris may be able to communicate
with my my dead son Rodney.
Speaker 2 (05:42):

The psychic people have a non thing him, is right,
John p as a Windrip is gifted beyond most models.
I'm sure he will be able to communicate with my
eldest son, who was killed in Spain. Perhaps Rodney will
be able to advise me in my financial affairs. He
was always so right about things. I'm getting old and
(06:21):
I need his advice.

of his with the host of one of those gypsy
tea rooms.

are looking through them at the immortal.

Speaker 2 (10:32):
My psychic friend is Officer Managin.
Speaker 3 (10:34):
And if anybody attempts to leave this room, this gun
of mine will speak and it won't be a psychic
message either.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
God ahead for Daddy. This is a case of murder.
Speaker 1 (11:00):
Or later.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
It's back of the little apothecary shop of doctor Franz.
Tan Garrett and doctor Franz are examining two photographs which
have just been developed.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
That this is the first one I snapped to the
X ray camera shows the interior of the room where
the seance was held.
Speaker 2 (11:15):
What what's that dark spot there on the wall where wow? Hm,
it looks like a like a loud.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
Speaker behind a large painting.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
And that's probably where the voice came from. That old
man Henley thought was the voice of his dead son Rodney.
Speaker 1 (11:31):
He was the old man's favorite son, volunteered to fight
in Spain and was killed in battle. Let's let's see the.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
Other photograph the right. I took this one just as
John said.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
This is alive shows the group seated in a circle.
Look a look at it's a murderer.
Speaker 2 (11:47):
His hand is clutching the dag or raised to strike
if even chose the custom.
Speaker 1 (11:50):
He wrapped around the hill to avoid leading finger. Princess
photograph alone. We'll convict the murderer of John Henley. Are
you going to call the police headquarters to hold they
hold him?
Speaker 2 (11:59):
We may not be able uh run the higher ups
in the racket.
Speaker 1 (12:01):
Then you think the murderer of John Henry was not
the top man. Oh no, he was just part of
the ring.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
The brains of the racket are higher up that they
should have realized that John Henry's death would put down
the police on their necks.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
Somebody made a miss que there. I don't think the
ring planned John death. What do you think their plan
was simply to use the deb son Rodney's fake voice
to work on the old man and influence him to
let his nephew William advise him, and in time persuaded
him to make William his There but why William is
probably being used.
Speaker 2 (12:33):
By this gang of racketeer.
Speaker 1 (12:35):
The old man should die, leaving his vast fortune to William,
and William would be blackmailed that the coming across with
a large sum of money to the racketeers. Mm. What
the devilish things evil minds can think of? Yes, Oh,
by the way, darts, put those negatives in a safe
place and be safe with me. Dammit.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
All right, Well, the Blue Beetle is going into action
on this gang of crooked buzzards or what are you
going to do? Blue Beetle is saying, several visits to
night or another day gone, viritulous racket will be smashed.
(13:16):
Who is the murderer of John Henry? What will the
Blue Beetle discover it? Professor Windrifp's residence, who's warped minds
is behind all these famish schemes to prey upon honest
but superstitious and ignorant person off through the Knight leads
the Blue Beetle in his crusade against crime. It's another
(14:10):
part of the city. A man is issuing orders to
his subordinate, a dark, sinister looking man whose tight lips mile.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
Has no mercy in it.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
His business is creating spirit spirit.
Speaker 1 (14:23):
Of those who has this party. Oh, at last, factor
cost you bought me was certainly cheating my old light. Yer,
make that electroplasm and that young But if tebore, never
mind the alibi, trade it in and get something tenants dark.
Speaker 2 (14:39):
Yes, he's still recording famous voices off the air.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
Yes, okay, be my secretary and get a list of
the four hundred best family. Yes on the one of
the time he's the consult them the idea of having
each voice in the family recorded as a memento for
their relatives after they pass on.
Speaker 2 (14:57):
Make coffee three.
Speaker 1 (14:59):
We can use them in our I don't drive away
the God And as you go out, tell Sweeney and
maintenance to water two dozen more luge speaker sets through
my radio stores. Fifty dozen crystal balls and seventy five
paces of playing cards right.
Speaker 2 (15:11):
Away if you send the maid chafe.
Speaker 1 (15:13):
Yes, look my apple, cheap little trigger man off.
Speaker 2 (15:19):
That's a wind ripped on me that he has reason
to suspect that.
Speaker 1 (15:22):
Some photographs were taken at his sayance tonight byer Tom
and Dan Garrett. The negatives may still be in his possession,
or they may be in the possession of doctor Frans
and run back middle of pothecary shop. I want those photographs, okay, Chief,
get them. If you meet with resistance, let your conscience
be your guide.
Speaker 4 (15:42):
I got your chief, my tigger fingers awful levist.
Speaker 2 (15:45):
Then I it must be the professive colony of ge
JOm In.
Speaker 1 (15:51):
So this is certainly a terrible seat of repair.
Speaker 2 (15:55):
Into the cops, Religer, just.
Speaker 1 (15:57):
Now, someone bring this all out.
Speaker 2 (15:59):
And I came right to you that you left the
trail a mile wide. Now, I changed trains three times
in the subway, walked through Thelph's department store, and then
took a taxi. Here, God, what what you advise me
to do?
Speaker 1 (16:11):
My prisoness is ruined your business. You should have thought
of that before you killed John Henley.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
I killed him you mean, will you? I mean you.
William wouldn't have a nerve.
Speaker 1 (16:22):
But William hated these cousins.
Speaker 2 (16:24):
He was sitting right next to h him.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
So were you? What makes you think our little bird
told I got five down a police headquarters. They heard
the questioning of your.
Speaker 2 (16:34):
People by the police. Oh yes, Oh they.
Speaker 1 (16:39):
Said you were playing up.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
The old man Henley will say you aren't figuring on time.
Speaker 1 (16:45):
The double crossed me on this.
Speaker 2 (16:46):
I s why no, will g I assure you.
Speaker 1 (16:49):
Better or not?
Speaker 2 (16:49):
If you'll know what's good for you? What about those
two policemen, Mannigan and Garrett. They'll be taken care of
when the case comes up for trial. They won't be
there to testified.
Speaker 1 (17:00):
But the photographs. I'm sure I heard the click of
a camera during the seance.
Speaker 2 (17:05):
Almost dark, wasn't it? It's black? Okay, you don't have
to worry. I'll leave everything to me.
Speaker 1 (17:10):
What do you think i'd better do? Now?
Speaker 2 (17:12):
Lot your place and play dumb.
Speaker 1 (17:14):
I'll be out there later as soon as I've had
a talk with William Henley. He'll probably spend a few
days on his uncle's yacht. In the meantime, I've got
my men guarding everybody concern. I imagine the Blue People
will stick his nose into this, and if he does,
it'll be.
Speaker 2 (17:32):
Just too bad for mister Blue People. Now look, Henley,
(17:58):
I don't think you've killed your cousin's I didn't. I
swear I didn't. Well, okay, now you just take it easy,
Lay up your uncle and you'll be the white haired boy.
He always believed anything his son Rodney told him.
Speaker 1 (18:10):
But this murder, what about?
Speaker 2 (18:11):
They're going to let Professor Windriff take the rat. He's
all washed up with us. I say later, you will
introduce your uncle to another medium.
Speaker 1 (18:20):
We'll go to work on him again.
Speaker 2 (18:22):
In your favor. You'll be his heir. Yes, but he
may live a long time and I need money now.
My creditors are harming me, and I can without take it.
Speaker 1 (18:31):
Take it easy.
Speaker 2 (18:33):
Just as soon as he makes a will in your favor,
he'll meet with an accident. You mean he'll be talking
with his dead son Rodney direct. It's very bitter sea.
Speaker 1 (18:45):
But it won't work. The Blue beetles yet, the Blue People,
and he's going to nip. Can I let him have
it out?
Speaker 2 (18:50):
Current?
Speaker 1 (18:51):
Go ahead, Your.
Speaker 2 (18:53):
Bullets can't injure the Blue people, but the land in
will Oh good work.

Great heaven?
Speaker 2 (20:31):
Yes he was in the way, just as you're in
my way, Professor windr What do you mean? Or all top?
Speaker 1 (20:37):
That's almost cleared our racket.
Speaker 2 (20:40):
I can't wait for the law to take its course
beside you might fill a name. Oh no, I'm taking out.
Speaker 1 (20:44):
I'm going to vote your mouth right.
Speaker 2 (20:48):
That son hells be fleshed with my next rake. Yes,
the Blue People must be a strong swimmer blue bee,

Otherwise I'd be lying at the bottom of the sound
in getting from the where you're gone. Don't fit the time,
Kirk and blue beetles on the alert. And here's one
for you, profet.
Speaker 1 (21:07):
The wind drip murderers. Now I'll take that gun, Algae.
Speaker 2 (21:12):
Certainly, Blue people here it is right, Henry.
Speaker 1 (21:17):
Just a little ju jitsu. Now I've got the gun.
What are you going to do?
Speaker 2 (21:21):
You've got nothing on me? Oh no, I swam back
to the yacht.
Speaker 1 (21:25):
After I freed myself from the anchor rope and had
a little talk with William was he's surprised to see me.
Speaker 2 (21:32):
He's going to talk and talk plenty. He can't prove
who killed John Henley. But the photograph then Garrett took
at the seance. Can what do you know about those
photographs of Blue Beetle knows everything. I'll listen Blue Beetles.
Those photographs will never be shown that any file. Pudgy
has seen the laps.
Speaker 1 (21:48):
What do you mean, Pudgy's my trigger man.
Speaker 2 (21:51):
I sent him to interview Dan Garrett's friend, doctor Fans
with chemist. If the photographs are there, he'll get them
or else. Well, mister l G, we've caught up with you.
Your rackets smashed and you will burn along with Professor
windlocket I won't. I've seen the table that point.
Speaker 1 (22:11):
Oh you don't.
Speaker 2 (22:12):
All is going to thank you and the murder of
Professor Winter for you can't cause any more harm.
Speaker 3 (22:24):
Well, if it's a blue Beeter, Professor Windrip and the
line servant.
Speaker 1 (22:30):
What of all?
Speaker 2 (22:31):
And the who's nurse at LG? The ringleader of the
gang just try to take poison? I hit him here, Managan,
that's this gun?
Speaker 3 (22:39):
What okay?
Speaker 1 (22:41):
Blue beats? Sorry to leave, So Sutton lady, wait a minute,
blue beader, you're under the rest hand.
Speaker 3 (22:48):
If the blue beader didn't dive out of the window,
old boy slipped the handcuffs of these babies, and we'll
take them along.
Speaker 2 (22:54):
I've catched the blue beat the next time and throw
the bluebeet ole cough and turned over to the police.
Several racketeers. But what about Doc Flans and the photograph?
(23:18):
What has happened to them? As Pudgy carried out the
orders of his chief, the infamoth l g. Let's hurry
back to the little apothecary shop of doctor Franz.
Speaker 1 (23:29):
What plans?
Speaker 2 (23:30):
Who are you hello, Jenny? What's your hurry? Are you
all right? Never felt better in my life?
Speaker 1 (23:35):
But what the gun man did?
Speaker 2 (23:37):
Pudgy, a rosy cheek is rather confident gentleman called earlier
to night. I was in my laboratory at the time.
Speaker 1 (23:45):
Well, what happened?
Speaker 2 (23:47):
He mentioned something about some photographs, who was rather insistent
that I give them to him? Or he is? He is?
Speaker 1 (23:53):
And he pointed a gun at me. What did you do?
Speaker 2 (23:56):
Squirted a syringe full of concentrated ammonia in his eyes,
whereas he know I tied him up to keep him
from playing with my chemicals in there.
Speaker 1 (24:04):
That's great. And the photographs who say to everything's under control,
that's fine. Those photographs will convict Professor Windrop of Young
Henley's murder and William's testimony.
Speaker 2 (24:12):
You'll take care of LG.
Speaker 1 (24:14):
What does l G stand for, Danny? According to Williams,
LG stands for live ghosts, the man behind the spirit. Well,
if you'll excuse me, Doc, I'm gonna turn him.
Speaker 2 (24:25):
The Blue Beatle's had a very busy night and so
all loose threads would die together and another racket smash
(24:45):
thanks to Dan Garrett, Mike Manigan, Doctor Brand and the
Blue Beatle. What new adventure awake the Blue Beagle. This
question will be answered in the next episode.
Speaker 1 (24:56):
Of The Blue Beagle. And now here's the Blue Beetle himself.
It's there. A few words.
Speaker 2 (25:20):
More of this story is there's.
Speaker 1 (25:22):
No honor among thieves. In other words, never become associated
with anyone any endeavor of plans. It is not absolutely straightforward.
If you do, you can expect to be double crossed
to become the cat's ball or the poor guy. Remember
to always look up, never down, and to associate only
