and directed by Willis Cooper at which features Ernest Chappell.
Quiet Please Fortnight is called Symphony in D minor.
Speaker 3 (00:52):
Personally, I believe in a lot of jungle.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
I believe that the fight.
Speaker 4 (00:56):
Goes to that's strong, to the one that's smarter, so
the one that ought to win. I've made my way
in life that way. You can't tell me anything different.
I never got past high school myself. I had too
much to do to waste time going to college, and
yet I did it.
Speaker 1 (01:10):
I've got just.
Speaker 3 (01:11):
About everything I ever wanted, but I haven't got yet.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
I'll get.
Speaker 3 (01:16):
Anything I ask of anybody is get out of my way.
Either that or get out of my way one side
of a wheel off. That's my mottol friend, I may
take a wheel off just for good luck. Let's not
have any misunderstanding. It's about me.
Speaker 1 (01:29):
I'm tough, and I know it now.
Speaker 3 (01:32):
I got nothing against you. If I had, you wouldn't
be just sitting there listening. You'd be well, you'd be
out of luck.
Speaker 4 (01:38):
Like a like a certain party is going to be
one of these days very soon, which I'm gonna tell
you about shortly.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
Good friends.
Speaker 3 (01:46):
Don't get the idea that just because I'm tough, I'm
not smart because I am. Because I'm gonna show you
shortly just how smart I am.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
You want to hear good?
Speaker 3 (02:02):
Last night I was a guest in his house, a
very interesting evening. You see, he's a psychologist, a very
smart man, degrees honors, knowledge, a beautiful wife, and black glasses. Yeah,
that's right, he's blind. Very convenient for certain parties. For example,
(02:23):
a party named uh Carol his wife, but a party
named Ray it's me, see what I mean? Friend, You
don't now you will shortly. He was sitting on a
blue davenport. Oh, I didn't tell you his name Johannas.
I'll just call him Johanna, so you will not get
(02:44):
too much of a line on him. I wouldn't want
anybody's slipping any information. He shouldn't have, you know. Well,
he was sitting on the blue davenport. Carol was upstairs
finishing the radio script. And she's very smart. But she'll
have to stop that after she marries me. I don't
want any wife of mine work.
Speaker 5 (03:01):
So anyway, your Hannas and I were.
Speaker 3 (03:03):
Sitting there got in a breeze, and you'd say, in
a quarter mastic cord, I was bored, but your Highness wasn't.
Speaker 4 (03:09):
He just keeps right on.
Speaker 5 (03:10):
Top, whether you believe it or not. Right, it's a
scientific fact, and I have occasion to use it a
great deal.
Speaker 3 (03:16):
It's bunk like all the rest of this dichology racket.
Speaker 5 (03:20):
I'm not going to try to convince you.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
Oh you can't convince me.
Speaker 5 (03:24):
I could go.
Speaker 3 (03:26):
Look, your honness, I don't believe in it. And even
if I did, I know you.
Speaker 4 (03:29):
Can't hypnotize a person against his will.
Speaker 5 (03:32):
You think so, I know? So you want to try
a little experiment. No, well there's no point in it.
You're sure a man can't be hypnotized if he doesn't
want to be sure. Way, I won't argue with you.
Uh look, handy that push button on the extension cord.
Speaker 6 (03:51):
You know about the desk, This buy the desk.
Speaker 3 (03:56):
He's the only thing is that it m Yeah, thank you?
Speaker 5 (04:02):
What's it for? It's the guard that I have. Listen,
what's that make your sleeping?
Speaker 6 (04:13):
Oh?
Speaker 4 (04:13):
It hurts my ears?
Speaker 5 (04:15):
Might make you sleeping? Has a very interesting sound. Listen
to a carefully ready see if it doesn't give you
a kind of heavy, drowsy feeling, make you want to
just lie back and shut your eyes and think about sleeping.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
It's a buck.
Speaker 5 (04:33):
So many people find it's an ideal way to go
to sleep. It's better than sleeping pills, better than to
set feather bed. Just relaxes your minds so you can't
think of anything.
Speaker 4 (04:44):
But just going to sleep.
Speaker 5 (04:47):
Turn it off. I can go to sleep in thirty
seconds with it if I wanted to. You could too.
You could sleep right away if you wanted to, if
you would relax.
Speaker 6 (05:00):
That's it.
Speaker 5 (05:01):
Oh, I get to sleep already.
Speaker 4 (05:03):
Aren't you cool?
Speaker 5 (05:05):
I am not nothing like sleep, looking like relaxing back
and that nice soft easy chair, putting your head fall
back and taking deep breaths, deep breaths, the way you
do when you're asleep. Take five deep breaths.
Speaker 6 (05:23):
See what happens?
Speaker 5 (05:28):
I am not nor it's good sense. Ready, try sleeping
make you feel better? So I listen to that soup,
relaxed blue, deep blue. Take it in your hair and
sleep and sleep and sleep and see.
Speaker 3 (05:51):
And I was so bored. I just dropped off to
sleep a minute while he was mumbling away. I wasn't
asleep a minute, but good. Nowadays you get bared listening
to somebody out of it and there you know. I
woke up when Carol opened the door and came in.
Speaker 4 (06:05):
I got right up out of my chair.
Speaker 1 (06:07):
She startled me.
Speaker 4 (06:08):
I guess I never.
Speaker 3 (06:09):
Was I glad to see anybody. I was bored with
your honess.
Speaker 5 (06:13):
And the funniest thing happened. Your Hanna's whistled and I
walked right over the Carol without thinking what I was doing,
and I kissed him.
Speaker 3 (06:24):
Now, why the devil did I do that? I said,
kind of stupid because I was scared right in front
of him, And your honesty.
Speaker 5 (06:33):
Said, you couldn't be hypnotized.
Speaker 3 (06:35):
Right, What are you talking about?
Speaker 5 (06:36):
You were out like a life back. I was not,
And I gave you a post hypnotic suggestion that when
I whistled, you were to kiss Carol.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
Are you killing your house?
Speaker 6 (06:48):
Of course?
Speaker 5 (06:48):
I am not kidding. You're the most natural hypnotic subject
i've other than the class. Why you can be hypnotized
at the drop of a hat without even knowing it?
Speaker 3 (07:02):
And what do you think of that? I'll tell you
what I think. I think this character Johannas is smarter
than I thought. He was not smarter than I had certainly,
but smart even though he doesn't suspect.
Speaker 4 (07:16):
Anything, and even.
Speaker 3 (07:18):
Though he can't see. I have got to be careful.
Speaker 7 (07:24):
I'm not Carol.
Speaker 4 (07:29):
I've seen you to night about a quarter eight.
Speaker 7 (07:31):
Huh.
Speaker 4 (07:32):
He's sure he's too bad. Your husband can't go to
the theater with us, isn't it.
Speaker 3 (07:42):
I go in, I sit down, and I look at
johannas I give him a very large, spaffable hello.
Speaker 1 (07:47):

Speaker 3 (07:48):
Sting gully?
Speaker 5 (07:50):

it last night? Ring.
Speaker 3 (07:53):
Oh, it was very interesting and instructive. Johanna's yeah, I
should say so.
Speaker 8 (08:00):
I'm gonna watch out for you.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
I don't wanna be stretched out over two chairs with
people breaking rocks on my chest.
Speaker 4 (08:05):
I thought that once when I was a kid in
a bad bill show.
Speaker 5 (08:07):

You didn't like the sound, and I didn't.
Speaker 9 (08:43):
But I do now.
Speaker 4 (08:45):
It puts me to sleep.

Something, something a man didn't have time.
Speaker 8 (17:49):
To tell me to forget. You see, even.
Speaker 4 (18:04):
The smart boys forget. If he told me to forget
that post hypnotic suggestion.
Speaker 1 (18:10):
If he is about murdering Carol when.
Speaker 3 (18:11):
I heard that music, he'd have been all right. I'd
never have known the difference. He'd have had another chance
at me. But he forgot to tell me, And so
he doesn't know what I know. He doesn't know what
I'm gonna do.
Speaker 4 (18:30):
Carol's in there talking to him now. Carol opened the window.
Speaker 5 (18:36):
Cheer.
Speaker 4 (18:36):
I told her all about it. She's in it with me.
She opened the window. A poor blind guy, a blind
would be murderer.
Speaker 3 (18:47):
Nobody will wonted much if a poor blind guy made
a mistake and tell out the window, it's a long
drop everybody.
Speaker 4 (18:56):
He'll be so sorry his poor wife and me and here,
my bet, that's what you get for being too smart
for your size.
Speaker 3 (19:07):
Uh, I think you give a quarter?
Speaker 4 (19:10):
Here the line of thought that's going on in there now,
carroll the sweetest thigh. Your Hanna's thinking fast while she
steps it all up. You never suspect a thing. That's
all man, we're in If you've a quarter, what this ain't.
Speaker 3 (19:24):
In there must be good, that must be rich.
Speaker 6 (19:30):
I won't fail the next time. Fellow. Oh no, your honnes,
you think we killed you, so you have to kill him.
Speaker 11 (19:50):
Whatever you say, your honness, I'll kill him.

use hadn't blown out.

to worry about that music again. It's still pretty I
hate to think what might Ray?

take a wheel off just for good luck. Let's not
have any misunderstanding. It's about me.
Speaker 1 (01:29):
I'm tough, and I know it now.
Speaker 3 (01:32):
I got nothing against you. If I had, you wouldn't
be just sitting there listening. You'd be well, you'd be
out of luck.
Speaker 4 (01:38):
Like a like a certain party is going to be
one of these days very soon, which I'm gonna tell
you about shortly.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
Good friends.
Speaker 3 (01:46):
Don't get the idea that just because I'm tough, I'm
not smart because I am. Because I'm gonna show you
shortly just how smart I am.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
You want to hear good?
Speaker 3 (02:02):
Last night I was a guest in his house, a
very interesting evening. You see, he's a psychologist, a very
smart man, degrees honors, knowledge, a beautiful wife, and black glasses. Yeah,
that's right, he's blind. Very convenient for certain parties. For example,
(02:23):
a party named uh Carol his wife, but a party
named Ray it's me, see what I mean? Friend, You
don't now you will shortly. He was sitting on a
blue davenport. Oh, I didn't tell you his name Johannas.
I'll just call him Johanna, so you will not get
(02:44):
too much of a line on him. I wouldn't want
anybody's slipping any information. He shouldn't have, you know. Well,
he was sitting on the blue davenport. Carol was upstairs
finishing the radio script. And she's very smart. But she'll
have to stop that after she marries me. I don't
want any wife of mine work.
Speaker 5 (03:01):
So anyway, your Hannas and I were.
Speaker 3 (03:03):
Sitting there got in a breeze, and you'd say, in
a quarter mastic cord, I was bored, but your Highness wasn't.
Speaker 4 (03:09):
He just keeps right on.
Speaker 5 (03:10):
Top, whether you believe it or not. Right, it's a
scientific fact, and I have occasion to use it a
great deal.
Speaker 3 (03:16):
It's bunk like all the rest of this dichology racket.
Speaker 5 (03:20):
I'm not going to try to convince you.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
Oh you can't convince me.
Speaker 5 (03:24):
I could go.
Speaker 3 (03:26):
Look, your honness, I don't believe in it. And even
if I did, I know you.
Speaker 4 (03:29):
Can't hypnotize a person against his will.
Speaker 5 (03:32):
You think so, I know? So you want to try
a little experiment. No, well there's no point in it.
You're sure a man can't be hypnotized if he doesn't
want to be sure. Way, I won't argue with you.
Uh look, handy that push button on the extension cord.
Speaker 6 (03:51):
You know about the desk, This buy the desk.
Speaker 3 (03:56):
He's the only thing is that it m Yeah, thank you?
Speaker 5 (04:02):
What's it for? It's the guard that I have. Listen,
what's that make your sleeping?
Speaker 6 (04:13):
Oh?
Speaker 4 (04:13):
It hurts my ears?
Speaker 5 (04:15):
Might make you sleeping? Has a very interesting sound. Listen
to a carefully ready see if it doesn't give you
a kind of heavy, drowsy feeling, make you want to
just lie back and shut your eyes and think about sleeping.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
It's a buck.
Speaker 5 (04:33):
So many people find it's an ideal way to go
to sleep. It's better than sleeping pills, better than to
set feather bed. Just relaxes your minds so you can't
think of anything.
Speaker 4 (04:44):
But just going to sleep.
Speaker 5 (04:47):
Turn it off. I can go to sleep in thirty
seconds with it if I wanted to. You could too.
You could sleep right away if you wanted to, if
you would relax.
Speaker 6 (05:00):
That's it.
Speaker 5 (05:01):
Oh, I get to sleep already.
Speaker 4 (05:03):
Aren't you cool?
Speaker 5 (05:05):
I am not nothing like sleep, looking like relaxing back
and that nice soft easy chair, putting your head fall
back and taking deep breaths, deep breaths, the way you
do when you're asleep. Take five deep breaths.
Speaker 6 (05:23):
See what happens?
Speaker 5 (05:28):
I am not nor it's good sense. Ready, try sleeping
make you feel better? So I listen to that soup,
relaxed blue, deep blue. Take it in your hair and
sleep and sleep and sleep and see.
Speaker 3 (05:51):
And I was so bored. I just dropped off to
sleep a minute while he was mumbling away. I wasn't
asleep a minute, but good. Nowadays you get bared listening
to somebody out of it and there you know. I
woke up when Carol opened the door and came in.
Speaker 4 (06:05):
I got right up out of my chair.
Speaker 1 (06:07):
She startled me.
Speaker 4 (06:08):
I guess I never.
Speaker 3 (06:09):
Was I glad to see anybody. I was bored with
your honess.
Speaker 5 (06:13):
And the funniest thing happened. Your Hanna's whistled and I
walked right over the Carol without thinking what I was doing,
and I kissed him.
Speaker 3 (06:24):
Now, why the devil did I do that? I said,
kind of stupid because I was scared right in front
of him, And your honesty.
Speaker 5 (06:33):
Said, you couldn't be hypnotized.
Speaker 3 (06:35):
Right, What are you talking about?
Speaker 5 (06:36):
You were out like a life back. I was not,
And I gave you a post hypnotic suggestion that when
I whistled, you were to kiss Carol.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
Are you killing your house?
Speaker 6 (06:48):
Of course?
Speaker 5 (06:48):
I am not kidding. You're the most natural hypnotic subject
i've other than the class. Why you can be hypnotized
at the drop of a hat without even knowing it?
Speaker 3 (07:02):
And what do you think of that? I'll tell you
what I think. I think this character Johannas is smarter
than I thought. He was not smarter than I had certainly,
but smart even though he doesn't suspect.
Speaker 4 (07:16):
Anything, and even.
Speaker 3 (07:18):
Though he can't see. I have got to be careful.
Speaker 7 (07:24):
I'm not Carol.
Speaker 4 (07:29):
I've seen you to night about a quarter eight.
Speaker 7 (07:31):
Huh.
Speaker 4 (07:32):
He's sure he's too bad. Your husband can't go to
the theater with us, isn't it.
Speaker 3 (07:42):
I go in, I sit down, and I look at
johannas I give him a very large, spaffable hello.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
I say, well, how are you doing?
Speaker 3 (07:48):
Sting gully?
Speaker 5 (07:50):
I hope you didn't buy in that little extern of
it last night? Ring.
Speaker 3 (07:53):
Oh, it was very interesting and instructive. Johanna's yeah, I
should say so.
Speaker 8 (08:00):
I'm gonna watch out for you.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
I don't wanna be stretched out over two chairs with
people breaking rocks on my chest.
Speaker 4 (08:05):
I thought that once when I was a kid in
a bad bill show.
Speaker 5 (08:07):
I don't do things like that.
Speaker 4 (08:10):
I sure hope not.
Speaker 9 (08:13):
Yeah, Hey, now I you were asleep then, Yes, I
went to sleep, went to sleep very easily this time,
didn't you.
Speaker 7 (08:34):
Yes, you told me last night to go to sleep whenever.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
I heard that sound.
Speaker 5 (08:40):
You didn't like the sound, and I didn't.
Speaker 9 (08:43):
But I do now.
Speaker 4 (08:45):
It puts me to sleep.
Speaker 5 (08:47):
You know that to do anything I tell you to do?
Speaker 6 (08:51):
Oh?
Speaker 5 (08:51):
Yeah, sure, if I told you to do like a dog?
Uh sing for me?
Speaker 6 (09:04):
Hap and tell me the.
Speaker 5 (09:09):
Truth about everything?
Speaker 4 (09:11):
Oh yes, your hones.
Speaker 1 (09:15):

I'm gonna take her away from you, your honest.
Speaker 4 (09:19):

Speaker 1 (09:21):
Nice? I remember?
Speaker 5 (09:22):
Do you love her?
Speaker 7 (09:23):

Speaker 4 (09:24):
Especially? But she's pretty. I'd rather have everything to have
you have her.
Speaker 5 (09:31):
She's my wife pretty? If I know why? They do?
You think it's rather rufus pensively to being a man's wife,
especially a blind man who doesn't know what's going on.
Speaker 7 (09:42):
No, I don't think so. Well it is, I guess
it is.
Speaker 4 (09:47):
If you say so, your honest?
Speaker 5 (09:50):

Speaker 6 (09:53):

I used to love her myself quite a great deal,
as a matter of fact, laying it's too bad, But
I forgot you told me last night, and now I
realized that you can tell me for a supper. Hasn't
she She sure has? You think I should love her now? No?
Speaker 7 (10:17):
Well I don't.
Speaker 5 (10:19):
Good Ray, what would you do if your wife ran
away as another man?
Speaker 1 (10:28):
I haven't got a wife johanness yet, But.
Speaker 5 (10:32):
If you did have one who prayed her for a
second the way Kadow's paid me, would you kill her?

Something, something a man didn't have time.
Speaker 8 (17:49):
To tell me to forget. You see, even.
Speaker 4 (18:04):
The smart boys forget. If he told me to forget
that post hypnotic suggestion.
Speaker 1 (18:10):
If he is about murdering Carol when.
Speaker 3 (18:11):
I heard that music, he'd have been all right. I'd
never have known the difference. He'd have had another chance
at me. But he forgot to tell me, And so
he doesn't know what I know. He doesn't know what
I'm gonna do.
Speaker 4 (18:30):
Carol's in there talking to him now. Carol opened the window.
Speaker 5 (18:36):
Cheer.
Speaker 4 (18:36):
I told her all about it. She's in it with me.
She opened the window. A poor blind guy, a blind
would be murderer.
Speaker 3 (18:47):
Nobody will wonted much if a poor blind guy made
a mistake and tell out the window, it's a long
drop everybody.
Speaker 4 (18:56):
He'll be so sorry his poor wife and me and here,
my bet, that's what you get for being too smart
for your size.
Speaker 3 (19:07):
Uh, I think you give a quarter?
Speaker 4 (19:10):
Here the line of thought that's going on in there now,
carroll the sweetest thigh. Your Hanna's thinking fast while she
steps it all up. You never suspect a thing. That's
all man, we're in If you've a quarter, what this ain't.
Speaker 3 (19:24):
In there must be good, that must be rich.
Speaker 6 (19:30):
I won't fail the next time. Fellow. Oh no, your honnes,
you think we killed you, so you have to kill him.
Speaker 11 (19:50):
Whatever you say, your honness, I'll kill him.

It'll be a little poetic justice.
Speaker 4 (19:59):

Speaker 10 (20:04):

a knife and stab him.

Broke out of it nicely though.
Speaker 4 (21:07):
Ain't it wonderful?
Speaker 5 (21:08):
Oh?
Speaker 11 (21:09):
Just shudder to think what would have happened if that
use hadn't blown out.
Speaker 3 (21:12):
Though, and if I hadn't remembered. Well, I never have
to worry about that music again. It's still pretty I
hate to think what might Ray?
