Once again, your neighborhood blue coal Dealer brings you the
thrilling adventures of the Shadow, the hard and relentless fight
of one man against the forces of evil. These dramatizations
are designed to demonstrate forcefully to old and young alike
that crime does not pay friends. There has been no

interruption in the mining of blue coal. Every working day,
the blue coal mines are producing at full capacity. Yes,
householders can fill their bins with blue coal this spring
and be sure of the same steady, healthful want next
winter they have enjoyed this year. Because of the shortage
of other fuels, the demand for hard coal has greatly increased,
(01:17):
and for your safety and comfort next winter, we want
to make this suggestion. Place your order this spring. The sooner,
the better for the coal you will need next winter.

tomorrow and ask him to schedule your spring delivery of
blue coal, America's finest hard coal. The Shadow wags the

If she would describe it to me, perhaps I could
design it for her personally.

spring weather changes from balmy to freezing in a few hours, Well,
(14:55):

have it?

Tamp master with the electric Eye thermostat. It will bring
you years of carefree heating comfort. You need never go
to the basement to adjust furnace dampers. You need never
trouble yourself about regulating the temperature in your home because
the marvelous new electric Eye thermostat will watch it for you.
You simply set the upstairs control and furnace tampers will
be automatically opened or closed as needed. You're assured of steady, even.
Speaker 8 (15:26):
Helpful warmth at all times.
Speaker 2 (15:28):
And besides that, the new blue Coal tamp Master heat
regulator will cut your fuel consumption, modernize your furnace with
a blue coal tamp master. It's easy and inexpensive to install. Tomorrow,
call the nearest blue coal dealer, ask him to demonstrate
the new tamp master thermostat and now back to the shadow.

He sounds like somebody in a spy movie.
Speaker 5 (23:31):
No, wonder what we're looking for?
Speaker 4 (23:32):
Some confidential government papers?
Speaker 2 (23:34):
Really?
Speaker 5 (23:35):
How confidence they're practically invaluable, not by.
Speaker 2 (23:38):
Any chance of secret formula for a midget cycloturn.
Speaker 4 (23:42):
Why how do you know?
Speaker 2 (23:48):
Because I happened to have it here in my wallets, I.
Speaker 10 (23:54):
Thought it twiser to remove the glasses, beer and accents
until I'm safely out of America. I'm a very cautious man,
and I'm sure you would have been wiser to have
kept your lily white nose out of this situation entirely.
But since you have, not, being such a cautious individual,
I shall have to take rather definite steps.
Speaker 4 (24:16):
If you pull a trigger, they'll hear you outside.
Speaker 2 (24:19):
I hardly think they could above the noise of the rails.
They could hear if I free, perhaps, but it.
Speaker 8 (24:24):
Will do you no good.
Speaker 2 (24:26):
I have bolted the door on the inside.
Speaker 10 (24:30):
You amuse me, young woman trying to play it in
three with a man who's business is in trigue?
Speaker 8 (24:34):
Whoever? Amuse me?
Speaker 2 (24:35):
Though you do, I can no longer report the luxury
of your press.
Speaker 9 (24:40):
We do?
Speaker 8 (24:42):
What's going on here?
Speaker 2 (24:44):
The window suddenly pro something cries through the plane. Put
is nothing in tire but an understand what happened to
your accent?
Speaker 4 (24:56):
Shadow?
Speaker 2 (24:57):
Who's got talking? I am the shadow. Now take that
formula respeak game, who come near to me? I'll take
that formula you put me out, pull this trigger and
kill this young woman before you're right? I don't think so.
Are you sure I will? It may interest you an
order on mister Cranston discovered there was no man fitting
the description he gave you in car for he wired
ahead to the next stop to have you picked up.
(25:18):
What difference does that make? She will be dead before
he reached the next stop.
Speaker 8 (25:21):
We are at the next stop.
Speaker 2 (25:23):
What the train has tougher? Spe game? But if you
turn around you'll see there are three American made police
revolvers leveled at you through the broken window.
Speaker 5 (25:47):
It seems like it all happened twenty years ago, doesn't it, Lamont?
It's been less than a week.
Speaker 2 (25:52):
All I can say it was a tough way to
get an easter on it?
Speaker 8 (25:59):
Ready? Is it later?
Speaker 9 (26:00):
On?
Speaker 5 (26:00):
My Vallain?
Speaker 2 (26:01):
I'll take it fine. Here it's for you, Margot from
a scientific research foundation.
Speaker 5 (26:10):

interruption in the mining of blue coal. Every working day,
the blue coal mines are producing at full capacity. Yes,
householders can fill their bins with blue coal this spring
and be sure of the same steady, healthful want next
winter they have enjoyed this year. Because of the shortage
of other fuels, the demand for hard coal has greatly increased,

Baroness of Orlanda.
Speaker 5 (04:31):

The Baroness Orlanders shops at London, New York and Southampton.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
I suppose you pay once for each shop.
Speaker 3 (04:37):
Well, you could hardly expect a woman like missus Granberysmis
to recommend a bargain basement.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
Yes, the lady would like to buy something.
Speaker 5 (04:47):
You're the Baroness Orlander.
Speaker 4 (04:49):
I am. I'd like to hat something special, Breester.

Speaker 3 (05:01):
Yes?
Speaker 4 (05:02):
I do, But it isn't what I want.
Speaker 6 (05:04):
But perhaps Mademoiselle has something getting it.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
In mine, I'll say, Mademoiselle.
Speaker 6 (05:09):
If she would describe it to me, perhaps I could
design it for her personally.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
But that's a wonderful idea. Look, I want a beige hat, yes,
with a white.
Speaker 4 (05:19):
Bird wing, white bird wing and a pair of deep
red cherries. Doesn't that sound divine?
Speaker 6 (05:26):

Speaker 2 (05:55):
Seventy five dollars For that kind of money, Darling, you
would buy a cherry orchan the dove palm thrown in.
Speaker 6 (06:01):
I am sorry, monsieur, but that is the price.
Speaker 5 (06:04):
No, Lamara, it's just what I've been looking for. I
know it's expensive, but I've been saving up for this
all winter because I always say it pays to.
Speaker 4 (06:14):
Buy nice things. You come out ahead in the long run.
Speaker 6 (06:17):
Mademoiselle will take that, Yes, I thought, Mademoiselle.
Speaker 2 (06:22):

extravagant side, Margaret.
Speaker 5 (06:35):
Just wait till you see how other women say.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
That's what you're happing. You get better results wearing a
picture of Gregory Peck on your head.
Speaker 3 (06:42):
You know, Darling, you're very bright about most things, but
when it comes to women's hat.
Speaker 4 (06:46):
You suddenly go blank.
Speaker 2 (06:48):
I'm sorry, nothing more to say.
Speaker 5 (06:50):
I beg your pardon.

She knew everything, even less Piggy's name.
Speaker 2 (07:52):
Man, you who she that?
Speaker 5 (07:53):
I don't know who's she working for?
Speaker 2 (07:54):
That?
Speaker 3 (07:55):
I don't know why.
Speaker 6 (07:58):
I have made a mistake by share. Obviously the deal
is off, and our friend doesn't have to settle with me.
Our friend will get a chance to settle with you.
What do you mean, I mean you seld us out.
Speaker 2 (08:10):
He put a mistake, just a little mistake, to.
Speaker 6 (08:12):
Prevent further silly mistakes. I'm going to settle with you myself.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
A gun. No, no, no, please put it away.
Speaker 5 (08:25):
I am so terrible, terribly afraid of guns.
Speaker 6 (08:28):
Sherry, too bad, But this is the last one you'll
ever have to be afraid of, Sherry.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
Cab Hey, Taxy.
Speaker 5 (08:48):
We're trying to get a cab for the last cale.

But she was alive just a few minutes ago.
Speaker 2 (09:45):
That was a few minutes ago. I'm gonna call the police.

There's probably falling behind those curtains in the back.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
I'll take a look.
Speaker 4 (09:51):
What in the world happened here?
Speaker 2 (09:53):
Speculate about that later. Meanwhile, remember that girl the street

At least that's what she called him, Maxim Gessler.
Speaker 5 (10:32):
Yes, that was an argument above what I don't know.
Speaker 6 (10:35):
David was speaking a foreign language. Then all of a
sudden he pulled her.
Speaker 5 (10:38):
Gunners shut her.
Speaker 2 (10:39):
Where'd he go?
Speaker 4 (10:41):
That's all I remember.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
Did she seem surprised when he walked in?
Speaker 6 (10:44):
No, I think he must have been an old margo.

Speaker 7 (13:39):
What in the world is it all about?
Speaker 3 (13:41):
I buy an Easter bonnet and the next thing I know,
I'm in the middle of a blood and thundrevention.
Speaker 8 (13:45):
You find out very soon this limb and when you'll
know you.
Speaker 2 (13:50):

Speaker 4 (14:14):
What did you use black sack?
Speaker 8 (14:17):
I thirst I did not damage her lovely easter bonnet.
Speaker 2 (14:33):
We'll return to the shadow in just a minute when
there has been no interruption in the mining of blue coal.
We're glad to be able to tell you this because
it means you'll be able to fill your bin this
spring and be prepared against a possible fuel shortage next winter.
Now here's another important springtime suggestion. You know how the
spring weather changes from balmy to freezing in a few hours, Well,
(14:55):
that's when you most appreciate automatic temperature control. Why not
have it?
Speaker 8 (15:00):
Now install a blue coal.
Speaker 2 (15:02):
Tamp master with the electric Eye thermostat. It will bring
you years of carefree heating comfort. You need never go
to the basement to adjust furnace dampers. You need never
trouble yourself about regulating the temperature in your home because
the marvelous new electric Eye thermostat will watch it for you.
You simply set the upstairs control and furnace tampers will
be automatically opened or closed as needed. You're assured of steady, even.
Speaker 8 (15:26):
Helpful warmth at all times.
Speaker 2 (15:28):
And besides that, the new blue Coal tamp Master heat
regulator will cut your fuel consumption, modernize your furnace with
a blue coal tamp master. It's easy and inexpensive to install. Tomorrow,
call the nearest blue coal dealer, ask him to demonstrate
the new tamp master thermostat and now back to the shadow.
(16:00):
When Margot came to, she discovered that she and Lamont
had been dragged into a back room of guestless flat
in motionless silence. They both listen as in the next
room Gessler and the girl Naja examine her easter bonnet.
Speaker 8 (16:13):
Well have you found it? Give it to me now

Speaker 2 (17:36):
You are almost indebted to me.
Speaker 10 (17:39):
Now I come to a most unpleasant aspect of our relationship. Quiet,
I'm a highly criminal business in this country, and one
thing is most dear. I would be most unlucky if
you decided to send me out before I have taken
my departure.
Speaker 4 (17:54):
You should have thought of that before.
Speaker 10 (17:56):
Oh I did, Miss Natcher, and I made plans to
take care of this contingent.
Speaker 8 (18:01):
