Come out a lady, get a doctor quickly. Cranston, you
had a very narrow escape the fraction of the writer.
Speaker 2 (10:11):
Thanks. Do guy fully realize how close it was gone?
Speaker 1 (10:16):
Cranston, It's only going to prove what I've always said,
amateur shouldn't medal in police work. And you leave him alone, contestant,
What were you doing outside police headquarters in the middle
of a gunfight anyway, a commissioner.
Speaker 2 (10:29):
I wasn't in the middle of a gunfight.
Speaker 1 (10:31):
I was the target.
Speaker 4 (10:32):
And if you ask any more questions, you're going to
be my targeting.
Speaker 2 (10:36):
Please, who's out for you?
Speaker 1 (10:37):
Cranston? I have a hundred's got something to do with
Tom Vito and the rowing murder. So Vita shot at you. Huh,
we've got him under lock and key.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
No, it wasn't Vieta.
Speaker 1 (10:46):
And oh look here, Cranston, Vieta is the killer.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
And that's that.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
Let what is it? Vieter has hanged himself from a
water pipe in itself.
Speaker 3 (10:54):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (10:55):
Such a thing is impossible. I'm telling you just a moment,
then it would appear Vito took his own life. Obviously. Yes,
that's right. It's only outwards to cheat the chair. Well, gentlemen,
if Etah committed suicide, we have a heart here of
a decidedly different color. In a moment, our play will continue. Meanwhile,
(11:24):
let's leave the world of the mysterious and hop right
into the sphere of everyday affair. There's certainly nothing that's
more on everyday affair than heating your home in the winter,
every day in the long winter month. You want dependable,
even heat throughout your house, blue coal will give it
to you. Blue coal is a dependable fuel of low
cost because it burns better, lasts longer, and that means
(11:47):
real economy. What more, blue coal makes comfortable home heating.
Not only simple and economical, but also easy, right, easy
is just the word. If eat blue cold is delivered
to your home and exactly the right size for your
heating plant, then two, the new automatic blue coal heat
regulator cuts out those frequent damper adjusting tricks you're probably
(12:08):
familiar with. Cut them right out, because it automatically opens
and closes the dampers on your furnace and keeps every
room at an even temperature. Get in touch with your
reliable neighborhood blue coal dealer right away. Ask him to
come out and discuss your heating situation with you. You
will find him a genial, well informed. This is man.
A number of people impressed by this have told us
(12:32):
blue coal is represented by an especially fine group of men.
This is true and something every dealer is cloud of.
So look under the words blue coal in the yellow
section of your classified phone directory and call your neighborhood
dealer tomorrow.
Speaker 3 (12:52):
Now back to the shadows, Hey, mister Craftston.
Speaker 2 (13:04):

you take it surpicable that we should all go home
and get a little shut eye with should cat? Perhaps
we or to take miss Lane home treet that she
sound a sweeper in the bank seat.
Speaker 2 (13:16):

reason why that's the city more treaty. That's the door

Speaker 5 (15:21):
Death caused by strangulation in his own hands.
Speaker 1 (15:25):
I don't care what it says there. He didn't come
in suicide. Tom Dieto met his death just as Jerry
Lawn did by murder.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
Did you learn anything enough, Monga to know that the shadows?
Speaker 1 (15:38):
Next step is to have missus Tom Diego identify her
husband's photograph, which appears on this porch. Please circular.
Speaker 4 (15:47):
Hello, hello, oh all right up later.
Speaker 1 (15:56):
Whom were you calling on the phone, missus?
Speaker 3 (15:59):
What is the shadow's voice?
Speaker 1 (16:03):
Missus? Vitor. I've proud of your mind with a hectotic
mist making me invisible to your eyes. Oh I see.
Speaker 4 (16:13):
But why do you come here, Shadow?
Speaker 1 (16:16):
Because I know that you can tie up several.
Speaker 3 (16:18):
Loose ends of a mystery.
Speaker 4 (16:19):
I don't know how I can help.
Speaker 1 (16:21):
You can help by telling me who you were trying
to reach on a telephone.
Speaker 4 (16:23):
Just now, why it was Elsie Randy in my roommate.
As she stayed with me here, she hadn't returned home
and I got worried.
Speaker 1 (16:33):
Look at the picture on this police.
Speaker 4 (16:37):
Com my husband.
Speaker 1 (16:39):
Have you ever seen this particular photograph before.
Speaker 4 (16:41):
I took it about five years ago?
Speaker 1 (16:44):
Before you decided to divorce your husband, Missus Dito know
that too, I do. Why did you run away, Missus Vietor?
Speaker 4 (16:52):
My love Patna died and you fell.
Speaker 1 (16:55):
In love with somebody else? Why didn't you explain everything
to your husband?
Speaker 4 (16:58):
I wanted to shadow, but I was persuaded not to.
I'll don't do it now he'll understand.
Speaker 1 (17:06):
It's you right now. Oh no, your husband was murdered.
Come was murdered, Missus Vitar, And you could help me
catch his murderer by telling me who could have obtained
the photograph which appears in this large police circular.
Speaker 4 (17:27):
Yes, Shadow, the only person who could have don that
picture to me is.
Speaker 2 (17:32):
Missus Vita.
Speaker 4 (17:36):
I very determined, Shadow.
Speaker 1 (17:42):
Who has done this?
Speaker 4 (17:44):
I can't tell now?
Speaker 1 (17:46):
Shadow?
Speaker 4 (17:48):
Could it hurt me? Even afterday? Even asked?
Speaker 2 (18:03):
So, Commissioner, you think at last you have the real
murder on the luck and Key.
Speaker 1 (18:06):
Who else could it be but Elsie Randley? After all,
mister Constant, he was Missus Veda's room mate on Besadi
had good reason to kill it?
Speaker 2 (18:13):
Really?
Speaker 1 (18:13):
What reason Cranston try to follow? Elsie Randley killed Missus
Veeter Because yes, I'm Lieutenant Tester, the Chicago detective VIEWERU
what can I know? For all the town? A little explaining?
Speaker 3 (18:25):
Why did you pick up com Vito for the murder
of Cherry Rowan.
Speaker 1 (18:28):
Because his police circlar demanding his arrest was sent out
by your office?
Speaker 3 (18:31):
That circular was forged?
Speaker 1 (18:33):
What just what I was trying to tell you, Commissioner,
The real murder was trying to throw suspicion on Tom Pito.
So what murderer is Elsie Randley? And I've got her
in the state prison.
Speaker 2 (18:42):
You think so, Commissioner?
Speaker 1 (18:43):
Sure she killed Rowan because he gave her a brush off.
She used to be his girlfriend. Then she killed Missus
Vetter because he was afraid Missus Veeter would spell her
to the police. Simple enough.
Speaker 2 (18:51):
There's just one little point, you gentlemen, seem to have overlooked.
What Who killed Tom Dito?
Speaker 1 (18:57):
He killed himself, Commissioner. Tom Vito was beat to death
in the same way that Rowan was.
Speaker 3 (19:01):
Huh.
Speaker 2 (19:01):
It was a very professional job.
Speaker 1 (19:03):
You couldn't tell his head had been bashed in unless
you examined it very carefully. I saw his body in
the mall, Transton. I tell you Elsie Randleigh is the killer,
and I'm sticking to it. Why do you think, Lawn,
that's the way I figure that, saf How do you
feel about it? That throw.
Speaker 2 (19:19):
All sticking your necks out together?
Speaker 1 (19:21):
Eh? Well, Commissioner, if anything happens to miss Elsie Ranley,
you're a so called killer. You're going to be three
fighting policemen.
Speaker 4 (19:36):
Come on, are you sure that Elsie Randley is completely innocent?
Speaker 1 (19:41):
I think she's innocent, but I have reason to believe
she knows the name of the murderer, and because of
this knowledge, he tried to silence her too.
Speaker 4 (19:48):
But he's perfectly safe. She's locked up.
Speaker 2 (19:51):
That didn't save tom Vito, Margo. We've got to protect
her now.
Speaker 1 (19:55):
Look, I want you to go to the state prison
and get to Elsie Randley's cell while I traill Detective Disco.
I don't care how you get to herself.
Speaker 2 (20:04):
But do it.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
A life depends on it. Here we are in that lane,
healthy Randley.
Speaker 2 (20:16):
So I have dark and here the time right?
Speaker 1 (20:19):
Yes? Oh? Now before we go in, I must warn
you again that's neither the warden nor Commissioner Weston know
that I'm letting you see, Miss Randley would mean my
job if they did go in. Please thank you. Who's
your friend, Detective Miss Randleigh? Meet miss Lane? You're still
(20:41):
are going to be together a long time?
Speaker 4 (20:43):
What do you mean? I'm getting sick of this whole
Thanks Loan. I don't want to go to the chair.
Somebody else will and tell us who the real murder is.
Speaker 2 (20:50):
Miss Randley.
Speaker 4 (20:51):
Don't killer, I don't sweeal, sister, But.
Speaker 2 (20:54):
You will, Elsie, Oh no, I won't.
Speaker 1 (20:57):
You'll break your promise, Eltie. When the electric chair stre's
you in the face, right, tell a police what you know? Yes,
Elsie tells you can tell miss Lane everything.
Speaker 4 (21:07):
Are you killed?
Speaker 1 (21:09):
Elsie is trying to say that I'm the killer? Miss Lane,
you're the killer. Yes, I killed Rowan because I owed
him my gambling death and couldn't pay it. So I
sent Vito to Chicago on a wild goose tase to
find his wife.
Speaker 2 (21:22):
That way I pinned the murder on him.
Speaker 1 (21:24):
Are you crazy?
Speaker 4 (21:25):
Still on that phone for the police.
Speaker 1 (21:27):
I had the phony circular made up in order to
grab when he got off the plane. You know, I'm
proud of the practice when I feed him to death
in this very room and hang him from that water pipe.
But none of the smart pops knew how it was done.
Speaker 4 (21:41):
Must have killed.
Speaker 2 (21:43):
Missus.
Speaker 1 (21:43):
Veto made a very useful tool Untilcie. I've lived a
usefulness and wanted the squire of the police. But enough
of that, I have a scored a settle with you too.
Speaker 4 (21:52):
Now, now wait till you can't do this.
Speaker 1 (21:54):
You won't have to watch along, Elsie. You're going to
die first, mis Lane. Now we just opened this door here.
Speaker 5 (22:01):
That death came that that's the electric here in this
So you can't do it.
Speaker 1 (22:09):
Plaine d alone here now I won't hear you.
Speaker 4 (22:13):
What are you going to do, and you're both rather impatient.

the second time. And now miss plane into the electric chair.
You go, yeah, yeah, yeah there, Now.

And now to pull the twitch. It generates a little power.

amateur shouldn't medal in police work. And you leave him alone, contestant,
What were you doing outside police headquarters in the middle
of a gunfight anyway, a commissioner.
Speaker 2 (10:29):
I wasn't in the middle of a gunfight.

water pipe in itself.

Speaker 1 (10:55):
Such a thing is impossible. I'm telling you just a moment,
then it would appear Vito took his own life. Obviously. Yes,
that's right. It's only outwards to cheat the chair. Well, gentlemen,
if Etah committed suicide, we have a heart here of
a decidedly different color. In a moment, our play will continue. Meanwhile,
(11:24):
let's leave the world of the mysterious and hop right
into the sphere of everyday affair. There's certainly nothing that's
more on everyday affair than heating your home in the winter,
every day in the long winter month. You want dependable,
even heat throughout your house, blue coal will give it
to you. Blue coal is a dependable fuel of low
cost because it burns better, lasts longer, and that means
(11:47):
real economy. What more, blue coal makes comfortable home heating.
Not only simple and economical, but also easy, right, easy
is just the word. If eat blue cold is delivered
to your home and exactly the right size for your
heating plant, then two, the new automatic blue coal heat
regulator cuts out those frequent damper adjusting tricks you're probably
(12:08):
familiar with. Cut them right out, because it automatically opens
and closes the dampers on your furnace and keeps every
room at an even temperature. Get in touch with your
reliable neighborhood blue coal dealer right away. Ask him to
come out and discuss your heating situation with you. You
will find him a genial, well informed. This is man.
A number of people impressed by this have told us

This is true and something every dealer is cloud of.
So look under the words blue coal in the yellow
section of your classified phone directory and call your neighborhood
dealer tomorrow.

mist making me invisible to your eyes. Oh I see.
Speaker 4 (16:13):
But why do you come here, Shadow?
Speaker 1 (16:16):
Because I know that you can tie up several.
Speaker 3 (16:18):
Loose ends of a mystery.
Speaker 4 (16:19):
I don't know how I can help.
Speaker 1 (16:21):
You can help by telling me who you were trying
to reach on a telephone.
Speaker 4 (16:23):
Just now, why it was Elsie Randy in my roommate.
As she stayed with me here, she hadn't returned home
and I got worried.
Speaker 1 (16:33):
Look at the picture on this police.
Speaker 4 (16:37):

Speaker 1 (16:39):
Have you ever seen this particular photograph before.

Speaker 1 (16:44):
Before you decided to divorce your husband, Missus Dito know
that too, I do. Why did you run away, Missus Vietor?
Speaker 4 (16:52):
My love Patna died and you fell.
Speaker 1 (16:55):
In love with somebody else? Why didn't you explain everything
to your husband?
Speaker 4 (16:58):
I wanted to shadow, but I was persuaded not to.
I'll don't do it now he'll understand.
Speaker 1 (17:06):
It's you right now. Oh no, your husband was murdered.
Come was murdered, Missus Vitar, And you could help me
catch his murderer by telling me who could have obtained
the photograph which appears in this large police circular.
Speaker 4 (17:27):
Yes, Shadow, the only person who could have don that
picture to me is.
Speaker 2 (17:32):
Missus Vita.
Speaker 4 (17:36):
I very determined, Shadow.
Speaker 1 (17:42):
Who has done this?
Speaker 4 (17:44):

Speaker 4 (17:48):
Could it hurt me? Even afterday? Even asked?
Speaker 2 (18:03):
So, Commissioner, you think at last you have the real
murder on the luck and Key.
Speaker 1 (18:06):
Who else could it be but Elsie Randley? After all,
mister Constant, he was Missus Veda's room mate on Besadi
had good reason to kill it?
Speaker 2 (18:13):
Really?
Speaker 1 (18:13):
What reason Cranston try to follow? Elsie Randley killed Missus
Veeter Because yes, I'm Lieutenant Tester, the Chicago detective VIEWERU
what can I know? For all the town? A little explaining?
Speaker 3 (18:25):
Why did you pick up com Vito for the murder
of Cherry Rowan.
Speaker 1 (18:28):
Because his police circlar demanding his arrest was sent out
by your office?
Speaker 3 (18:31):
That circular was forged?
Speaker 1 (18:33):
What just what I was trying to tell you, Commissioner,
The real murder was trying to throw suspicion on Tom Pito.
So what murderer is Elsie Randley? And I've got her
in the state prison.
Speaker 2 (18:42):
You think so, Commissioner?
Speaker 1 (18:43):
Sure she killed Rowan because he gave her a brush off.
She used to be his girlfriend. Then she killed Missus
Vetter because he was afraid Missus Veeter would spell her
to the police. Simple enough.
Speaker 2 (18:51):
There's just one little point, you gentlemen, seem to have overlooked.
What Who killed Tom Dito?
Speaker 1 (18:57):
He killed himself, Commissioner. Tom Vito was beat to death
in the same way that Rowan was.
Speaker 3 (19:01):
Huh.
Speaker 2 (19:01):
It was a very professional job.
Speaker 1 (19:03):
You couldn't tell his head had been bashed in unless
you examined it very carefully. I saw his body in
the mall, Transton. I tell you Elsie Randleigh is the killer,
and I'm sticking to it. Why do you think, Lawn,
that's the way I figure that, saf How do you
feel about it? That throw.
Speaker 2 (19:19):
All sticking your necks out together?
Speaker 1 (19:21):
Eh? Well, Commissioner, if anything happens to miss Elsie Ranley,
you're a so called killer. You're going to be three
fighting policemen.
Speaker 4 (19:36):
Come on, are you sure that Elsie Randley is completely innocent?
Speaker 1 (19:41):
I think she's innocent, but I have reason to believe
she knows the name of the murderer, and because of
this knowledge, he tried to silence her too.
Speaker 4 (19:48):
But he's perfectly safe. She's locked up.
Speaker 2 (19:51):
That didn't save tom Vito, Margo. We've got to protect
her now.
Speaker 1 (19:55):
Look, I want you to go to the state prison
and get to Elsie Randley's cell while I traill Detective Disco.
I don't care how you get to herself.
Speaker 2 (20:04):
But do it.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
A life depends on it. Here we are in that lane,
healthy Randley.
Speaker 2 (20:16):
So I have dark and here the time right?
Speaker 1 (20:19):
Yes? Oh? Now before we go in, I must warn
you again that's neither the warden nor Commissioner Weston know
that I'm letting you see, Miss Randley would mean my
job if they did go in. Please thank you. Who's
your friend, Detective Miss Randleigh? Meet miss Lane? You're still
(20:41):
are going to be together a long time?
Speaker 4 (20:43):
What do you mean? I'm getting sick of this whole
Thanks Loan. I don't want to go to the chair.
Somebody else will and tell us who the real murder is.
Speaker 2 (20:50):
Miss Randley.
Speaker 4 (20:51):
Don't killer, I don't sweeal, sister, But.
Speaker 2 (20:54):
You will, Elsie, Oh no, I won't.
Speaker 1 (20:57):
You'll break your promise, Eltie. When the electric chair stre's
you in the face, right, tell a police what you know? Yes,
Elsie tells you can tell miss Lane everything.
Speaker 4 (21:07):
Are you killed?
Speaker 1 (21:09):
Elsie is trying to say that I'm the killer? Miss Lane,
you're the killer. Yes, I killed Rowan because I owed
him my gambling death and couldn't pay it. So I
sent Vito to Chicago on a wild goose tase to
find his wife.
Speaker 2 (21:22):
That way I pinned the murder on him.
Speaker 1 (21:24):
Are you crazy?
Speaker 4 (21:25):
Still on that phone for the police.
Speaker 1 (21:27):
I had the phony circular made up in order to
grab when he got off the plane. You know, I'm
proud of the practice when I feed him to death
in this very room and hang him from that water pipe.
But none of the smart pops knew how it was done.
Speaker 4 (21:41):
Must have killed.
Speaker 2 (21:43):
Missus.
Speaker 1 (21:43):
Veto made a very useful tool Untilcie. I've lived a
usefulness and wanted the squire of the police. But enough
of that, I have a scored a settle with you too.
Speaker 4 (21:52):
Now, now wait till you can't do this.
Speaker 1 (21:54):
You won't have to watch along, Elsie. You're going to
die first, mis Lane. Now we just opened this door here.
Speaker 5 (22:01):
That death came that that's the electric here in this
So you can't do it.
Speaker 1 (22:09):
Plaine d alone here now I won't hear you.
Speaker 4 (22:13):
What are you going to do, and you're both rather impatient.
Speaker 1 (22:17):
Will stop you? I promised myself won't miss that meddler
the second time. And now miss plane into the electric chair.
You go, yeah, yeah, yeah there, Now.
Speaker 3 (22:30):
Go hang me with you.
Speaker 1 (22:31):
I don't think so you bad, Miss Laine that I'm
your only audience. Now that I'll be a very appreciative one.
And now to pull the twitch. It generates a little power.
Speaker 4 (22:48):
And quick well complete, get my dear.
Speaker 1 (22:55):
You spoiled my I didn't even pull the switch. Well
a little extra. Won't have to I just have to
watch so fast, detective song, voice my arm, Oh, hold
my arm? The Shadow murderer? What have you thought of?
Mus Lane? Something that even you can't men, Shadow Sloane,
your life of crime, the name, whatever it is. I
(23:15):
won't pay the police for the deaths of Rowan and
the Vicars and the bump all McClane, the privilege of
taking my own life wrecked with me. Get away from
that master switch.
Speaker 2 (23:24):
Thank not Shadow, I'd rather go that way, Thank heaven, Margaret.
Speaker 1 (23:37):
When you fainted, Sloan thought you were dead and didn't
complete his job.
Speaker 4 (23:41):
Yes, thank heaven.
Speaker 1 (23:42):
I'll never forgive myself for sending me to that trap
when I was stupidly following the trail of Detective Deestro.
Speaker 2 (23:48):
He was petically all right, perfectly with.
Speaker 1 (23:50):
Sloane, who had no right to wear a band. He
got nom a Detroit course with the aid of Port's credentials.
Sooner or later he would have been discovered.
Speaker 2 (23:58):
But now the days of over all the month, I
just thought of something.
Speaker 4 (24:03):
I got a call from the Social Service League again
this morning and they're holding another meeting.
Speaker 2 (24:07):
Oh good for them.
Speaker 4 (24:10):
They want to know why I didn't get Commissioner Weston

I'm sure you'll be interested in hearing from Blue Coals
distinguished home heating expert John Barclays by Thank you friends.
Quite a few people have told me that they're tired
of playing nursemaid to their furnace. I wonder if you
feel the same way. You must if you find it
necessary to hop down to the basement several times a
day to fuss and pool around with a furnace, adjust

heat out of a lazy fire. Now, all that's unnecessary,
It certainly is. Actually, when you know the correct method
of operating a furnace, the whole thing is perfectly easy.
