Real smarty looking for someone, mister, Yes, it uh, it

Speaker 3 (12:49):
Sorry well to continue. I was to meet a man
here who had an item for sale.
Speaker 1 (12:55):
Got the fair of waste any time I did quick
time of it.
Speaker 5 (13:02):
Let's say. Now, usually do.
Speaker 1 (13:04):
Business face to face, hide out hand A hundred thack
you say.

Speaker 3 (13:21):
Leavine received something in exchange for my money.
Speaker 6 (13:25):
Was the deal?
Speaker 5 (13:26):
Yeah, that's right, deal's a deal.
Speaker 2 (13:31):
I got it for your right hair.
Speaker 5 (13:50):
We'll return to the shadow.
Speaker 9 (13:51):
In just a minute.
Speaker 3 (13:54):
You know, when I see someone in the garden carefully
culivating his tomatoes or something, I can't help wondering what
this land of ours would be like if we all
were equally careful about culivating our children. For instance, suppose
we inculcated a really deep feeling of sportsmanship in our youth,
an attitude which would not tolerate on fair discrimination against minorities,
(14:16):
which would demand that every man be allowed to speak
his mind any time, anywhere, within reason, even if his
views were not our own. Suppose we've gone up our
children to consider such things as casting their ballots, wisely,
serving on juries, in all such civic duties, as sacred
obligations to their own freedom. How close perfection would our
(14:38):
land become then? And it's not a mere dream, for
little by little we approach. But can our children be
taught by words alone? With those tomatoes I mentioned before
grow full and firm merely because they were told to?
Speaker 2 (14:52):
Of course, not you have.
Speaker 3 (14:53):
To destroy weeds in the worms, you will have to
take action. And so it is with the teaching of
children we must. We have to teach our children how
to be good citizens by showing them ourselves, by undertaking
all the obligations of good citizenship, by working at being
good Americans.
Speaker 1 (15:14):
Back now to the shadow. In an effort to save
the life of Missus James, wife of a gambling boss.
Speaker 3 (15:32):
Lamont had gone to a waterfront rendezvous. Margot was waiting
in the car, when suddenly she hears a shot.
Speaker 8 (15:40):
The ah over.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
Be all right this, I haven't that shot.
Speaker 3 (15:51):
I thought this man stopped the boy I've been called doctor.
Speaker 2 (15:55):
Won't tell oh oh the man who had the gun
for sale, who required the shot.
Speaker 5 (15:58):
The idea came nearby. I dropped when I gokay, ah,
you trying.
Speaker 2 (16:03):
To say something, Yes this gun?
Speaker 5 (16:07):
Yes, I have a gun?
Speaker 1 (16:09):
Oh I uh I teach you christ what do you do?
Speaker 7 (16:17):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (16:22):
Good one?
Speaker 4 (16:24):
The mort could well alright?
Speaker 8 (16:26):
If I about take you home?
Speaker 1 (16:28):
Then where are you going?
Speaker 5 (16:30):
First?
Speaker 3 (16:30):
I'm gonna know if I western turn this gun over
between you, then I'm gonna try to get a lead
on lou Walliams.
Speaker 5 (16:35):
Whereabouts?
Speaker 9 (16:36):
Where do you expect to find that?
Speaker 3 (16:37):
Informiss Louise gambling club? The idea that lose Lieutenant Vince.
Speaker 5 (16:42):
Might be very helpful.
Speaker 9 (16:43):
If I dropped in is the shadow?
Speaker 8 (17:01):
Hey, buddy, I've one of my office.
Speaker 4 (17:03):
I don't want to be disturbed right right by?
Speaker 1 (17:11):
Hello, Rince.
Speaker 5 (17:11):
Right, I've been waiting for you that you get in.
Speaker 2 (17:16):
We're right, keep working, Vince. What kind of a gag?
Speaker 5 (17:19):
Has said? No, Ga Vince.
Speaker 4 (17:21):
He avoys, but he can't see.
Speaker 5 (17:23):
No one sees the shadow shadow.
Speaker 1 (17:25):
Yes, Vince, you and I are gonna have a little talk,
But you want to talk to me about Lou Aimes.
Speaker 4 (17:31):
Where is he?
Speaker 2 (17:32):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (17:33):
A man named Roxy was shot to death tonight at
the waterfront because he was turning over evidence against Lou.
Speaker 5 (17:38):
Do you remember Roxy, don't you, Vince?
Speaker 2 (17:40):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (17:40):
Sure, Roxy used to work here.
Speaker 3 (17:42):
Lou killed him.
Speaker 5 (17:43):
Now you've got it wrong.
Speaker 3 (17:44):
Roxy had a convince and the ballistical test proved that
the gun was the weapon which killed Claire Aimes and
nearly killed Thames. It's Lou's gun. The license up approved that.
You don't know what you're talking about. Lou hasn't carried
a gun for the years, because over two years ago
he conveniently reported it as stolen. I'll tell me where's Louis?
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (18:00):
You're lying.
Speaker 2 (18:01):
I tell you got this all wrong. Who couldn't have
killed Roxy? I took a flight s out of missus Ames.
He's not even in town.
Speaker 3 (18:05):
He's in town less than an hour ago. He tried
to murder his wife in that apartment. The policeman on
the beat of her scream who got away just in time?
Speaker 1 (18:12):
Now?
Speaker 2 (18:12):
Where is he?
Speaker 4 (18:13):
I don't know?
Speaker 1 (18:13):
I tell you I don't know.
Speaker 2 (18:14):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (18:14):
I murderers a dangerous game vents. If you're lying, you'll
find that the shadow can play the most dangerous game
of all.
Speaker 2 (18:22):
And when.
Speaker 5 (18:36):
Where are we going?
Speaker 4 (18:37):
He sanks?
Speaker 8 (18:38):
Just for right?
Speaker 7 (18:40):
While you're driving so fast?
Speaker 1 (18:42):

Speaker 5 (18:42):
I remember it, you used to like to drive fast?
Speaker 7 (18:44):

Speaker 4 (19:15):
Well, just keep drying until before I lose my tongue
and listen to me Ben's hill.
Speaker 2 (19:18):
I don't want to hear any more of that crazy talk.

It was a night kid, really Vance and why did
you kill her? Yes, Lou, he killed Fay and he
also reigns for your first wife's murder for Lie.
Speaker 4 (25:07):
Two years ago.
Speaker 3 (25:07):
Clarings was killed because you wanted Lou out of the Wavins.
Speaker 5 (25:11):
You wanted to take over the club for yourself.
Speaker 8 (25:12):
You planned it so the murder.
Speaker 3 (25:13):
Would fall upon him, but it didn't work out. Lou
had too good an alibi. The line you the Lord,
you have rocks. He passed the murder gun out of
Crimson to sensed the case against Lou and then killed
him to keep him quiet. He waited and tried the
same thing with the second missus Ames, with the same gun,
the one who stole for Lou.
Speaker 9 (25:28):
You know know it's talking about it.
Speaker 2 (25:30):
They would set the stap the door up in the mountains.
Speaker 3 (25:32):
Ammen out of this house all day, wasting up preference.
I know when you returned to this apartment, but you
got back here from the lodge just a few minutes
before Loo did.
Speaker 2 (25:40):
And it was him he did kill me.
Speaker 8 (25:43):
Well, you can't pull a you beardy little toy friend, Mike,
little poppable.

Speaker 8 (25:53):
We'll keep on.
Speaker 2 (25:55):
Now, come on, get up fine, Low, but this thinking
right and let him go.
Speaker 4 (26:00):
I'll handle it.
Speaker 2 (26:00):
From here, okay, okays are yours? I just want to say,
gets what's coming to it.
Speaker 3 (26:04):
Don't worry about that Low.
Speaker 2 (26:06):
Then Sa'll get everything that's coming to him, every single vote.
Speaker 5 (26:25):
When Margo Vince made a full confession, he was the
one who shot Fames outside.
Speaker 6 (26:29):
The lodge and he did kill Claring to your hid no.
Speaker 5 (26:32):
But he hired Roxy to do the job for him?
Speaker 2 (26:36):
What made you suspect Vince Margot?
Speaker 5 (26:38):
We knew that Roxy was killed by a thirty eight
caliber gun.
Speaker 3 (26:42):
While I waited for Vince in his office as the shadow,
I found a thirty eight in his desk. Pre That,
couple with Vince's being heir to lose gambling throne, gave
me a solid combination of suspicions.
Speaker 7 (26:51):
Oh, you didn't tell me about the gun and Vince's dead.
Speaker 1 (26:55):
Didn't I?
Speaker 8 (26:56):
You know very well you didn't. Why did you withhold
that information?
Speaker 3 (27:00):
Well, frankly, Margot, I was saving it to the end.

Speaker 7 (07:34):
Case is still listed is unsolved.

That's why I came to you, and the incident with

her killed. And a system thinks a minute, it's but
mister Cranston, isn't that some way you.

culivating his tomatoes or something, I can't help wondering what
this land of ours would be like if we all
were equally careful about culivating our children. For instance, suppose
we inculcated a really deep feeling of sportsmanship in our youth,
an attitude which would not tolerate on fair discrimination against minorities,
(14:16):
which would demand that every man be allowed to speak
his mind any time, anywhere, within reason, even if his
views were not our own. Suppose we've gone up our
children to consider such things as casting their ballots, wisely,
serving on juries, in all such civic duties, as sacred
obligations to their own freedom. How close perfection would our
(14:38):
land become then? And it's not a mere dream, for
little by little we approach. But can our children be
taught by words alone? With those tomatoes I mentioned before
grow full and firm merely because they were told to?
Speaker 2 (14:52):
Of course, not you have.
Speaker 3 (14:53):
To destroy weeds in the worms, you will have to
take action. And so it is with the teaching of
children we must. We have to teach our children how
to be good citizens by showing them ourselves, by undertaking
all the obligations of good citizenship, by working at being
good Americans.
Speaker 1 (15:14):
Back now to the shadow. In an effort to save
the life of Missus James, wife of a gambling boss.
Speaker 3 (15:32):
Lamont had gone to a waterfront rendezvous. Margot was waiting

Speaker 8 (15:40):
The ah over.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
Be all right this, I haven't that shot.
Speaker 3 (15:51):
I thought this man stopped the boy I've been called doctor.
Speaker 2 (15:55):

Speaker 3 (16:37):
Informiss Louise gambling club? The idea that lose Lieutenant Vince.
Speaker 5 (16:42):
Might be very helpful.
Speaker 9 (16:43):
If I dropped in is the shadow?
Speaker 8 (17:01):
Hey, buddy, I've one of my office.
Speaker 4 (17:03):
I don't want to be disturbed right right by?
Speaker 1 (17:11):
Hello, Rince.
Speaker 5 (17:11):
Right, I've been waiting for you that you get in.
Speaker 2 (17:16):
We're right, keep working, Vince. What kind of a gag?
Speaker 5 (17:19):

Speaker 4 (17:21):
He avoys, but he can't see.
Speaker 5 (17:23):
No one sees the shadow shadow.
Speaker 1 (17:25):
Yes, Vince, you and I are gonna have a little talk,
But you want to talk to me about Lou Aimes.
Speaker 4 (17:31):
Where is he?
Speaker 2 (17:32):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (17:33):
A man named Roxy was shot to death tonight at
the waterfront because he was turning over evidence against Lou.
Speaker 5 (17:38):
Do you remember Roxy, don't you, Vince?
Speaker 2 (17:40):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (17:40):
Sure, Roxy used to work here.
Speaker 3 (17:42):
Lou killed him.
Speaker 5 (17:43):
Now you've got it wrong.
Speaker 3 (17:44):
Roxy had a convince and the ballistical test proved that
the gun was the weapon which killed Claire Aimes and
nearly killed Thames. It's Lou's gun. The license up approved that.
You don't know what you're talking about. Lou hasn't carried
a gun for the years, because over two years ago
he conveniently reported it as stolen. I'll tell me where's Louis?
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (18:00):
You're lying.
Speaker 2 (18:01):
I tell you got this all wrong. Who couldn't have
killed Roxy? I took a flight s out of missus Ames.
He's not even in town.
Speaker 3 (18:05):
He's in town less than an hour ago. He tried
to murder his wife in that apartment. The policeman on
the beat of her scream who got away just in time?
Speaker 1 (18:12):
Now?
Speaker 2 (18:12):
Where is he?
Speaker 4 (18:13):
I don't know?
Speaker 1 (18:13):
I tell you I don't know.
Speaker 2 (18:14):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (18:14):
I murderers a dangerous game vents. If you're lying, you'll
find that the shadow can play the most dangerous game
of all.
Speaker 2 (18:22):
And when.
Speaker 5 (18:36):
Where are we going?
Speaker 4 (18:37):
He sanks?

It was a night kid, really Vance and why did
you kill her? Yes, Lou, he killed Fay and he
also reigns for your first wife's murder for Lie.
Speaker 4 (25:07):
Two years ago.
Speaker 3 (25:07):
Clarings was killed because you wanted Lou out of the Wavins.
Speaker 5 (25:11):
You wanted to take over the club for yourself.
Speaker 8 (25:12):
You planned it so the murder.
Speaker 3 (25:13):
Would fall upon him, but it didn't work out. Lou
had too good an alibi. The line you the Lord,
you have rocks. He passed the murder gun out of
Crimson to sensed the case against Lou and then killed
him to keep him quiet. He waited and tried the
same thing with the second missus Ames, with the same gun,
the one who stole for Lou.
Speaker 9 (25:28):
You know know it's talking about it.
Speaker 2 (25:30):
They would set the stap the door up in the mountains.
Speaker 3 (25:32):
Ammen out of this house all day, wasting up preference.
I know when you returned to this apartment, but you
got back here from the lodge just a few minutes
before Loo did.
Speaker 2 (25:40):

Speaker 8 (25:43):
Well, you can't pull a you beardy little toy friend, Mike,
little poppable.

Now, come on, get up fine, Low, but this thinking
right and let him go.

I'll handle it.
Speaker 2 (26:00):
From here, okay, okays are yours? I just want to say,
gets what's coming to it.
Speaker 3 (26:04):
Don't worry about that Low.
Speaker 2 (26:06):
Then Sa'll get everything that's coming to him, every single vote.
Speaker 5 (26:25):
When Margo Vince made a full confession, he was the
one who shot Fames outside.
Speaker 6 (26:29):
The lodge and he did kill Claring to your hid no.
Speaker 5 (26:32):
But he hired Roxy to do the job for him?
Speaker 2 (26:36):
What made you suspect Vince Margot?
Speaker 5 (26:38):
We knew that Roxy was killed by a thirty eight
caliber gun.
Speaker 3 (26:42):
While I waited for Vince in his office as the shadow,
I found a thirty eight in his desk. Pre That,
couple with Vince's being heir to lose gambling throne, gave
me a solid combination of suspicions.
Speaker 7 (26:51):
Oh, you didn't tell me about the gun and Vince's dead.
Speaker 1 (26:55):
Didn't I?
Speaker 8 (26:56):
You know very well you didn't. Why did you withhold
that information?
Speaker 3 (27:00):
Well, frankly, Margot, I was saving it to the end.
