I'll get another one to do.
Speaker 1 (04:15):
Wait a second, I mean after all. Oh well, yeah,
that's the story of my life. The best ones always
seemed to get away. I went into the hotel lobby
to register, but found a message waiting for me from
the informant, who had phoned a pat I was to
(04:36):
drive to the little town of Coroado Beach down the
coast and meet a man there first thing in the morning.
There was a map showing me the way to a
small pier where the meeting was to take place. Hmm,
looked like Los Angeles had suddenly got too hot for him.
Expense account at him four fifty dollars to rent a car.
I left word where i'd be, drove to Coroado Beach
(04:57):
and checked in at a motel. Then early next morning
I went out to the little pier. It was a
ramshackle affair, with a couple of beat up boats tied
to it and an old character fumbling with the door
of a little bait shack. I went over. Jon, Hi,
Marian having trouble. Yeah, these kids been monkey with this lot.
You want some bait? No, no, this is one trip
(05:19):
I didn't come to fish. How is it by the way, Yeah, fine, Oh,
just my lot. No, I'm supposed to meet somebody there. Oh,
there must be that fellow out there. He was already
there when I got here. Oh you see that boat
the bottom side up on the pier near the end.
I mean the man sitting beside her.
Speaker 9 (05:37):
Yeah, got himself a fishing rod. Looks like could be
on some bait. I'll walk out with you and see
if you don't mind.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
Not at all. So the fishing has been good. Huh,
what have they been catching.
Speaker 9 (05:49):
Oh quite a few bass last couple of days off
the pier.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
Yeah, some kelp beds and clothes brings men around here.
Funny your friend there, you don't see Hey sleep?
Speaker 10 (06:02):
I guess Hey wat John he's living. But hey, mister, mister,
he isn't sleeping. That's right, he's dead.
Speaker 5 (06:31):
At two of yours, truly, Johnny Dollar in a moment.
Speaker 11 (06:35):
Our flag now numbers fifty stars, and behind each star
there stands yet another flag, representing one of the fifty states.
Georgia's state flag displays the state seal on a strip
of blue. The seal symbolizes the fact that constitutional government
rests equally on the three major branches of government legislative, executive,
(06:56):
and judicial, and that all three must be guarded equal
if a sound government is to be maintained. The greater
portion of Georgia's flag is crimson. On it is superimposed
the blue cross of Saint Andrew, bearing thirteen white stars
for the original thirteen colonies. This cross, made in the
form of saltyr or X, was adopted from the national
(07:18):
flag of Scotland. Georgia's state flag, the flag of the
fourth state to enter the Union, was adopted in nineteen
fifty six.
Speaker 5 (07:28):
And now at two of yours, truly Johnny Dollar and
the Johnson payroll matter.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
I'd flown three thousand miles to meet a man, only
to find him dead at the end of a rickety
little pier at Carondo Beach, a knife between his rips.
I searched him while the old fellow at the Baitshack
went to call the police. But I didn't find a
thing on him to help me, no identification. Even later
talking to the police, well, they didn't have any line
on him. There my only lead on the payroll robbery
(08:01):
was dead. I waited around the hotel most of the day,
hoping the police could turn up something on the dead man,
but it was no soap. I had him five two
dollars for drinks in the town's only bar well. I
tried to figure out my next move, and my next
move was to the phone booth in the corner. They
called Pat McCracken back in Hartford collect.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
Oh, tough love, Johnny, what are you sure the dead
man is our informant?
Speaker 1 (08:26):
There was no identification on him, but he was right
where he told me he'd be in the message he
left for me in la.
Speaker 4 (08:31):
I'll probably not much doubt about it.
Speaker 3 (08:32):
Then.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
Oh, incidentally, I sent some mug shots up because a
man might have been involved in the Johnson payroll job.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
Send the air mail special. Yeah, I got him about
an hour ago.
Speaker 2 (08:41):
We're not sure if any of them are the ones
or not, and we don't have any line at all
on the leader of the gang. I'll that's your next move.
Speaker 1 (08:47):
Uh, search me right now. I'm right in the middle
of nowhere, I guess I Hey, wait a minute, maybe
I'm not out of leeds after all. What do you mean, cad,
I'll call you later. What pulled me off that phone
in a hurry was a glimpse of somebody over here
one end of the bar. I slid out of the
booth and went over, Well, Hi, what I imagine reading
(09:11):
you here?
Speaker 8 (09:12):
I'm afraid I don't know what you're talking about.
Speaker 1 (09:15):
You're the girl who got into my cab in Los Angeles.
Speaker 8 (09:17):
I'm afraid you're confusing me with somebody else.
Speaker 10 (09:19):
I'm sorry I had in.
Speaker 1 (09:21):
Just a minute, I'm beginning to think it wasn't just
coincidence you got into my cab. Maybe we'd better have
a little.
Speaker 8 (09:27):
Talk, Please God, my arm you've made a mistake and
there's nothing.
Speaker 1 (09:31):
To talk about. You're annoying you, lady. I'll look bartender.
Speaker 7 (09:34):
Yeah, he is annoying me.
Speaker 12 (09:36):
Take your hands off for buddy, I'll look Joe. I
mean it, and my name ain't Joe. I got you
outweighed by about forty pounds.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
Buddy, you don't understand.
Speaker 4 (09:44):
Just go over and we'll talk it over.
Speaker 3 (09:48):
Okay, okay, thank you.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
Well, just what is it?
Speaker 12 (09:56):
I don't understand, buddy, skip it.
Speaker 1 (10:04):
So she got away from me. I grabbed my top
coat off a hook and step outside the door. I
was damp and foggy out there. I put on the
coat and started looking around for it, but it was
too late. She was just playing gone. Then walking along
with my hands in my coat pockets. I realized there
was something in one. A key to a motel was
(10:26):
not mine. Funny, then I remembered I'd had the coat
beside me in the taxi when the girl climbed in
back in Los Angeles. Yeah, she got a slipped it
in the coat pocket. Then win, and that's what I
wanted to find out. I looked up the motel. I
was about a mile down the highway from mine, room seven. Yeah,
(10:47):
the key fit all right. Then as I opened the door,
I realized I had company right behind him.
Speaker 3 (10:52):
Freeze, delly, who are you?
Speaker 4 (10:56):
Never mind?
Speaker 3 (10:57):
Inside?
Speaker 4 (10:57):
Move?
Speaker 3 (10:57):
Okay, get that blind down? Okay, Oh wait a.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
Minute, your face looks familiar. Yeah, those mugshots mccragen sent me.
You must be Slattery, great boy, one of the guys
they suspect of pulling the Johnson payroll job.
Speaker 4 (11:22):
Do bright for your own good dollar.
Speaker 1 (11:24):
You must be the one who killed the man out
on the pier, the man who was gonna tell me
where the payroll door is.
Speaker 4 (11:29):
It's a nice star dollar, but it won't work.
Speaker 1 (11:31):
What do you mean, Slattery?
Speaker 4 (11:32):
Blake killed him and you know it.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
Yeah, ah is Blake.
Speaker 4 (11:35):
You want to play coy? No dollar? Okay, we'll do
it your way. Blake's got the payroll dough and you're
working with him.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
Just how do you figure that.
Speaker 4 (11:44):
Blake's girlfriend planned in your taxi in Los Angeles? I
figure she slipped you the key.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
To this room, and look, you got a few things.
Speaker 4 (11:50):
All turn it up and stand still. It's gun as
I have it. Are going off sometimes, no kidding, So
where's the dough?
Speaker 1 (11:58):
Take it and leave it slattery. I don't know what had.
Speaker 4 (12:01):
Better be in this room.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
Eh. If it isn't, you guess, I don't think I
need more than one. If it isn't here, I'm not
leaving that.
Speaker 4 (12:14):
The idea, Oh you'll leave, all right. It's just that
you won't be walking out of here.
Speaker 5 (12:24):
Act free of yours, truly, Johnny Dollar.
Speaker 4 (12:27):
In a moment.
Speaker 7 (12:29):
Over one hundred and fifty years ago, the Swiss poet
are Amiel wrote, heroism is the brilliant triumph of the
soul overfear. Heroism is the dazzling and glorious concentration of courage.
During the Korean Campaign, Corporal Ronald Rosser was attached to
the heavy mortar company of the thirty eighth Infantry, second Division,
(12:51):
United States Army. Rosser, a veteran of World War Two,
rejoined the army and shipped to Korea when he heard
that his brother had fallen in the winter assault of
the Chinese Communists. One day, Rosser's company moved into enemy territory.
At the time, the corporal was a forward observer and
(13:12):
carried a radio. Suddenly, in the midst of an enemy attack,
Rosser handed his radio to a buddy, slipped the safety
off his carbine and filled his shirt with hand grenades.
He charged at the enemy through fierce mortar and artillery fire,
Shooting from the hip. Straddling a bunker, he riddled its occupants.
Still advancing, he accounted for two more of the enemy,
(13:33):
shooting one through the head and clubbing another to death.
Continuing as one man charge, he jumped into a trench
full of enemy soldiers, opened fire, and forced his way
relentlessly down the length of the trench, killing right and
left with grenades and carbing fire. Out of ammunition, he
returned to his company where he replenished his supply. Then
(13:54):
he charged the enemy again and again. Finally he returned
to his own area, and taking the radio back from
his friend, he moved.
Speaker 1 (14:04):
Out with his company.
Speaker 7 (14:06):
Corporal Ronald Russer was awarded the Medal of Honor for
his action, action which had shown the enemy that his
personal code of conduct wouldn't let them push around either
his kid, brother or his country.
Speaker 5 (14:21):
And now act free of yours, truly, Johnny Dollar and
the Johnson payroll matter.
Speaker 1 (14:45):
Ah, Now look Slatter, you've torn this motel room completely apart.
Obviously that payroll money isn't here.
Speaker 4 (14:50):
That's right teller. So now you're going to tell me
where it is.
Speaker 1 (14:53):
Brother, you take a lot of convincing. I told you,
I don't know, So why don't you put that gun away? Less?
Speaker 4 (14:57):
Whither one takes the convincing dollar. So I start, that's
not going to do you any good. Oh, well, for sure,
it's not going to do you any good. So I look, look,
I'll give you the whole story, and I'm supposed to
believe it, eh.
Speaker 1 (15:12):
Staring down that gun barrel, I'm not about to lie.
Speaker 4 (15:16):
Let's have it all right.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
A guy called us from Los Angeles said he could
give us a lead on who had the dough from
the Johnson payroll job.
Speaker 4 (15:22):
It was Hollis. He was hoping you'd lead him to it.
Speaker 1 (15:25):
Hallis.
Speaker 4 (15:25):
Yeah, yeah, the guy you found out in the pier dead.
Speaker 1 (15:28):
And you said a man named Blake killed him.
Speaker 4 (15:29):
You know, Blake killed him. You know, Blake engineered to
hold up and then ran out on Hollis and me,
why sure, because you're in with him. I seen his
girl get in your cab in Los Angeles.
Speaker 1 (15:38):
Okay, so she got in my cab, but I didn't
know her. I'd never seen her before.
Speaker 4 (15:42):
She slipped you the key to this motel room, didn't
she Yeah.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
No, I think I know why she was trying to
sidetrack us, lead us to think the dough was here,
so it would take the pressure off Blake and her.
Speaker 4 (15:53):
That part of your story. I don't buy, Delly. I
think you know where that dough is and I want
it now.
Speaker 1 (15:57):
Look if you think I'm gonna take any more of.
Speaker 4 (16:02):
This, Gun says, that's exactly what you're gonna do until
you decide to talk.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
I roll with his next one and let my eyes
drop on my knees sack. He reached down to steady
of me, and I gave him a left foot in
the stomach that flattened. By the time he got to
his feet, I was out the door. I do behind
some bushes down the road, and I waited. He pounded
right on past me, gun in hand. I went until
(16:28):
he was out of sight and double back to my car.
Apparently Slattery didn't know Blake's girl was around here somewhere.
One thing was sure. I had to find it. Went fast.
There are only three motels in town, the one I
was staying at, the one where Slattery had been playing
paddy Cake on my jaw, on a third off the
highway and near the beach. I drove to that one
and checked the register. It showed a Myrnick Grant in
(16:51):
number eight.
Speaker 13 (17:01):
Please get out.
Speaker 1 (17:02):
Sorry, I didn't have that talk right now.
Speaker 8 (17:05):
I tell you you've made a mistake about me.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
Oh, come on, drop the egg miner. I know you
have Blake's girlfriend that just slipped that motel key in
my coat pocket in LA to get me off the
trailer Johnson payroll money.
Speaker 10 (17:18):
What.
Speaker 1 (17:18):
I also know that Blake master minded the robbery and
double cross this buddy held out on him.
Speaker 8 (17:23):
Oh, I guess I knew it must be something like that.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
What are you talking about, mister dollar.
Speaker 8 (17:32):
I haven't known Fred Blake very long, a month. Maybe
I didn't know what he did for a living, and
I didn't ask him. Two days ago, he said he
was in trouble and needed my help. He wanted me
to slip that key into your coat pocket and the
taxi in.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
Los Angeles take office trade.
Speaker 8 (17:46):
Then he told me to meet him here at the beach.
When I saw you in the bar a while ago,
I got panicky. I didn't know what to do. But
that's all I know about it, mister Dollar. I didn't
know Blake was a criminal, honestly I didn't.
Speaker 1 (17:59):
Yeah, now would you help me find him?
Speaker 3 (18:04):
Yes?
Speaker 8 (18:05):
I will, mister Dollar, if I can. The trouble is
right now. I don't know where he is any more
than you do.
Speaker 1 (18:20):
We'll it be folks.
Speaker 12 (18:21):
Hey, wait a minute, buddy, ain't you the one that
was molesting this young lady an hour ago?
Speaker 1 (18:27):
Or tiresan? Buddy, My molesting days are old.
Speaker 3 (18:29):
It's all right, Marknd.
Speaker 8 (18:31):
I'm sorry I caused you the trouble.
Speaker 1 (18:32):
No trouble, man, I'm just glad it turned out all right.
Things happened fast here at the beach. I guess I
don't suppose you've ever heard of a guy named Fred Blake?
Have you not that I.
Speaker 4 (18:43):
Remember you looking for me?
Speaker 1 (18:44):
Yeah? What do you look like?
Speaker 4 (18:46):
Medium?
Speaker 8 (18:47):
High, dark hair and brown eyes, regular features, that description
that fit.
Speaker 1 (18:53):
Half the guys that come in here. Sure, fisherman's salesman.
Va O, he's that kind. Don't come in here anymore, salesman,
No fisher I thought the fishing was good here been
no fishing around here for months. Ah. A fellow told
me they were getting a lot of bass right off
the pier.
Speaker 12 (19:09):
He was pulling your leg, buddy, there's a chemical plant nearby.
A lot of stuff got dumped into the water by
accident a few months.
Speaker 1 (19:16):
Ago to fish.
Speaker 12 (19:16):
Haven't been back since.
Speaker 1 (19:17):
Wait a minute, sure, right out of my nose all
the time. What do you mean, Johnny, when I'll see
you later. I got in my car and headed for
the pier. As it turned off the highway, I could
see a car a couple hundred yards back following me
with its lights off. But I couldn't stop now. I
parked near the pier and headed for the big shack.
(19:38):
The windows were still boarded over, but I could see
a crack of light between the boats. I eased over
to the sheck. Oh no, I flattened against the wall
as the door came open and Blake came out with
a gun. I hacked it out of his hand, all right,
It haulted Blake Well the fisherman's friend. Huh. Look, you'll
kill that guy on the end of the pier. Before
(20:00):
I showed up this morning, you didn't have time to leave,
so you covered by making like you worked here. Then
it occurred to you, this was a pretty good hideout
till Slattery got off your trail. Look, look, maybe we
can make a deal though. Oh we're going to You
turned the stolen money over to me, and I turned
you over to the police.
Speaker 4 (20:17):
Your gun, Dolly drop it, ok, Chase Slattery, Oh, Blake,
glad to see me.
Speaker 9 (20:26):
Look, Slattery, I wasn't trying to cross you. I was
going to get in touch with you when things quieted down.
Speaker 4 (20:32):
Sure you were.
Speaker 1 (20:34):
Let's have the dope, all right, gets in the shack.
Lake half turned and I saw his hand slide into
his coat. A second gun. He whipped it out, but
Slattery had seen it too. He got Blake, but his
eyes were off me for a lucky second. I checked Blake.
(20:55):
He was still alive. Yeah, they'd both keep for a
long time. Adam six one hundred and seventy four dollars
even air transportation in Incinatal's back home expense account total
five hundred and twenty six dollars fifty cents. Remarks The
payroll money is back where it belongs. Slattery and Blake
(21:18):
are back where they belong, with Blake facing a murder
raptive boot funny. I probably wouldn't nail it if he
hadn't told me that phony story about the fish fighting
near the pier. Teaches me a lesson. Pat I'm not
going to tell any more fish stories. They can kill you. Yours truly,
Johnny Dollar.

Ohio's state flag is the only pennant shaped flag, or burgee.
Speaker 4 (22:07):
As it is correctly called.
Speaker 13 (22:09):
The Buckeye Banner, is the creation of an engineer who
created a blue triangle for the hills and valleys, red
and white stripes for the roads and waterways of the state.
There are thirteen stars for the original thirteen colonies, and
four extra stars to indicate that Ohio was the seventeenth
state admitted to the Union. A white circle with a
(22:33):
red center represents the initial letter of Ohio and suggests
its nickname, the Buckeye State. Ohio's state flag, a flag
of the seventeenth state to enter the Union, was adopted
on May nineteen hundred and two.

We also think one of the crooks may be trying
to double across the.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
Others hiding out from them.

Maybe that's the general idea.

We got a call from Los Angeles this morning. Fellow

All right? How do I contact this man in Los Angeles?
Speaker 6 (02:53):
You don't, He'll contact you at your hotel the nest. Oh,
just one thing.
Speaker 4 (03:00):
Maybe it's a court to you. Maybe it hasn't. There
will be others looking for that money.
Speaker 1 (03:05):
Too, the other guys involved in the rockery.
Speaker 6 (03:08):
Yeah, of course, if you can get there first, I'll try.

even air transportation and incidental's to Los Angeles. I've been
told to stay at the hotel, nister, So I took
(03:31):
a cab that's had him three five fifty from the
airport we're just getting dark. As my cab pulled up
in front of the place. Before I could get out,
somebody got in. Oh I'm sorry.

I didn't know this cab was occupied.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
Oh that's okay, welcome aboard.

Oh oh yeah, well if you say thanks, I'm sorry.

Oh wait a minute, you can have this gay as
soon as they get my stuff.
Speaker 8 (04:12):
Out of Oh that's all right, I'm in a hurry.
I'll get another one to do.
Speaker 1 (04:15):
Wait a second, I mean after all. Oh well, yeah,
that's the story of my life. The best ones always
seemed to get away. I went into the hotel lobby
to register, but found a message waiting for me from
the informant, who had phoned a pat I was to
(04:36):
drive to the little town of Coroado Beach down the
coast and meet a man there first thing in the morning.
There was a map showing me the way to a
small pier where the meeting was to take place. Hmm,
looked like Los Angeles had suddenly got too hot for him.
Expense account at him four fifty dollars to rent a car.
I left word where i'd be, drove to Coroado Beach
(04:57):
and checked in at a motel. Then early next morning
I went out to the little pier. It was a
ramshackle affair, with a couple of beat up boats tied
to it and an old character fumbling with the door
of a little bait shack. I went over. Jon, Hi,
Marian having trouble. Yeah, these kids been monkey with this lot.
You want some bait? No, no, this is one trip
(05:19):
I didn't come to fish. How is it by the way, Yeah, fine, Oh,
just my lot. No, I'm supposed to meet somebody there. Oh,
there must be that fellow out there. He was already
there when I got here. Oh you see that boat
the bottom side up on the pier near the end.
I mean the man sitting beside her.
Speaker 9 (05:37):
Yeah, got himself a fishing rod. Looks like could be
on some bait. I'll walk out with you and see
if you don't mind.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
Not at all. So the fishing has been good. Huh,
what have they been catching.
Speaker 9 (05:49):
Oh quite a few bass last couple of days off
the pier.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
Yeah, some kelp beds and clothes brings men around here.
Funny your friend there, you don't see Hey sleep?
Speaker 10 (06:02):
I guess Hey wat John he's living. But hey, mister, mister,
he isn't sleeping. That's right, he's dead.
Speaker 5 (06:31):
At two of yours, truly, Johnny Dollar in a moment.
Speaker 11 (06:35):
Our flag now numbers fifty stars, and behind each star
there stands yet another flag, representing one of the fifty states.
Georgia's state flag displays the state seal on a strip
of blue. The seal symbolizes the fact that constitutional government
rests equally on the three major branches of government legislative, executive,
(06:56):
and judicial, and that all three must be guarded equal
if a sound government is to be maintained. The greater
portion of Georgia's flag is crimson. On it is superimposed
the blue cross of Saint Andrew, bearing thirteen white stars
for the original thirteen colonies. This cross, made in the
form of saltyr or X, was adopted from the national
(07:18):
flag of Scotland. Georgia's state flag, the flag of the
fourth state to enter the Union, was adopted in nineteen
fifty six.
Speaker 5 (07:28):
And now at two of yours, truly Johnny Dollar and
the Johnson payroll matter.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
I'd flown three thousand miles to meet a man, only
to find him dead at the end of a rickety
little pier at Carondo Beach, a knife between his rips.
I searched him while the old fellow at the Baitshack
went to call the police. But I didn't find a
thing on him to help me, no identification. Even later
talking to the police, well, they didn't have any line
on him. There my only lead on the payroll robbery
(08:01):
was dead. I waited around the hotel most of the day,
hoping the police could turn up something on the dead man,
but it was no soap. I had him five two
dollars for drinks in the town's only bar well. I
tried to figure out my next move, and my next
move was to the phone booth in the corner. They
called Pat McCracken back in Hartford collect.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
Oh, tough love, Johnny, what are you sure the dead
man is our informant?
Speaker 1 (08:26):
There was no identification on him, but he was right
where he told me he'd be in the message he
left for me in la.
Speaker 4 (08:31):
I'll probably not much doubt about it.
Speaker 3 (08:32):
Then.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
Oh, incidentally, I sent some mug shots up because a
man might have been involved in the Johnson payroll job.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
Send the air mail special. Yeah, I got him about
an hour ago.
Speaker 2 (08:41):
We're not sure if any of them are the ones
or not, and we don't have any line at all
on the leader of the gang. I'll that's your next move.
Speaker 1 (08:47):
Uh, search me right now. I'm right in the middle
of nowhere, I guess I Hey, wait a minute, maybe
I'm not out of leeds after all. What do you mean, cad,
I'll call you later. What pulled me off that phone
in a hurry was a glimpse of somebody over here
one end of the bar. I slid out of the
booth and went over, Well, Hi, what I imagine reading
(09:11):
you here?
Speaker 8 (09:12):
I'm afraid I don't know what you're talking about.
Speaker 1 (09:15):
You're the girl who got into my cab in Los Angeles.
Speaker 8 (09:17):
I'm afraid you're confusing me with somebody else.
Speaker 10 (09:19):
I'm sorry I had in.
Speaker 1 (09:21):
Just a minute, I'm beginning to think it wasn't just
coincidence you got into my cab. Maybe we'd better have
a little.
Speaker 8 (09:27):
Talk, Please God, my arm you've made a mistake and
there's nothing.
Speaker 1 (09:31):
To talk about. You're annoying you, lady. I'll look bartender.
Speaker 7 (09:34):
Yeah, he is annoying me.
Speaker 12 (09:36):
Take your hands off for buddy, I'll look Joe. I
mean it, and my name ain't Joe. I got you
outweighed by about forty pounds.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
Buddy, you don't understand.
Speaker 4 (09:44):
Just go over and we'll talk it over.
Speaker 3 (09:48):
Okay, okay, thank you.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
Well, just what is it?
Speaker 12 (09:56):
I don't understand, buddy, skip it.
Speaker 1 (10:04):
So she got away from me. I grabbed my top
coat off a hook and step outside the door. I
was damp and foggy out there. I put on the
coat and started looking around for it, but it was
too late. She was just playing gone. Then walking along
with my hands in my coat pockets. I realized there
was something in one. A key to a motel was
(10:26):
not mine. Funny, then I remembered I'd had the coat
beside me in the taxi when the girl climbed in
back in Los Angeles. Yeah, she got a slipped it
in the coat pocket. Then win, and that's what I
wanted to find out. I looked up the motel. I
was about a mile down the highway from mine, room seven. Yeah,
(10:47):
the key fit all right. Then as I opened the door,
I realized I had company right behind him.
Speaker 3 (10:52):
Freeze, delly, who are you?
Speaker 4 (10:56):
Never mind?
Speaker 3 (10:57):
Inside?
Speaker 4 (10:57):
Move?
Speaker 3 (10:57):
Okay, get that blind down? Okay, Oh wait a.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
Minute, your face looks familiar. Yeah, those mugshots mccragen sent me.
You must be Slattery, great boy, one of the guys
they suspect of pulling the Johnson payroll job.
Speaker 4 (11:22):
Do bright for your own good dollar.
Speaker 1 (11:24):
You must be the one who killed the man out
on the pier, the man who was gonna tell me
where the payroll door is.
Speaker 4 (11:29):
It's a nice star dollar, but it won't work.
Speaker 1 (11:31):
What do you mean, Slattery?
Speaker 4 (11:32):
Blake killed him and you know it.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
Yeah, ah is Blake.
Speaker 4 (11:35):
You want to play coy? No dollar? Okay, we'll do
it your way. Blake's got the payroll dough and you're
working with him.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
Just how do you figure that.
Speaker 4 (11:44):
Blake's girlfriend planned in your taxi in Los Angeles? I
figure she slipped you the key.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
To this room, and look, you got a few things.
Speaker 4 (11:50):
All turn it up and stand still. It's gun as
I have it. Are going off sometimes, no kidding, So
where's the dough?
Speaker 1 (11:58):
Take it and leave it slattery. I don't know what had.
Speaker 4 (12:01):
Better be in this room.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
Eh. If it isn't, you guess, I don't think I
need more than one. If it isn't here, I'm not
leaving that.
Speaker 4 (12:14):
The idea, Oh you'll leave, all right. It's just that
you won't be walking out of here.
Speaker 5 (12:24):
Act free of yours, truly, Johnny Dollar.
Speaker 4 (12:27):
In a moment.
Speaker 7 (12:29):
Over one hundred and fifty years ago, the Swiss poet
are Amiel wrote, heroism is the brilliant triumph of the
soul overfear. Heroism is the dazzling and glorious concentration of courage.
During the Korean Campaign, Corporal Ronald Rosser was attached to
the heavy mortar company of the thirty eighth Infantry, second Division,
(12:51):
United States Army. Rosser, a veteran of World War Two,
rejoined the army and shipped to Korea when he heard
that his brother had fallen in the winter assault of
the Chinese Communists. One day, Rosser's company moved into enemy territory.
At the time, the corporal was a forward observer and
(13:12):
carried a radio. Suddenly, in the midst of an enemy attack,
Rosser handed his radio to a buddy, slipped the safety
off his carbine and filled his shirt with hand grenades.
He charged at the enemy through fierce mortar and artillery fire,
Shooting from the hip. Straddling a bunker, he riddled its occupants.
Still advancing, he accounted for two more of the enemy,
(13:33):
shooting one through the head and clubbing another to death.
Continuing as one man charge, he jumped into a trench
full of enemy soldiers, opened fire, and forced his way
relentlessly down the length of the trench, killing right and
left with grenades and carbing fire. Out of ammunition, he
returned to his company where he replenished his supply. Then
(13:54):
he charged the enemy again and again. Finally he returned
to his own area, and taking the radio back from
his friend, he moved.
Speaker 1 (14:04):
Out with his company.
Speaker 7 (14:06):
Corporal Ronald Russer was awarded the Medal of Honor for
his action, action which had shown the enemy that his
personal code of conduct wouldn't let them push around either
his kid, brother or his country.
Speaker 5 (14:21):
And now act free of yours, truly, Johnny Dollar and
the Johnson payroll matter.
Speaker 1 (14:45):
Ah, Now look Slatter, you've torn this motel room completely apart.
Obviously that payroll money isn't here.
Speaker 4 (14:50):
That's right teller. So now you're going to tell me
where it is.
Speaker 1 (14:53):
Brother, you take a lot of convincing. I told you,
I don't know, So why don't you put that gun away? Less?
Speaker 4 (14:57):
Whither one takes the convincing dollar. So I start, that's
not going to do you any good. Oh, well, for sure,
it's not going to do you any good. So I look, look,
I'll give you the whole story, and I'm supposed to
believe it, eh.
Speaker 1 (15:12):
Staring down that gun barrel, I'm not about to lie.
Speaker 4 (15:16):
Let's have it all right.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
A guy called us from Los Angeles said he could
give us a lead on who had the dough from
the Johnson payroll job.
Speaker 4 (15:22):
It was Hollis. He was hoping you'd lead him to it.
Speaker 1 (15:25):
Hallis.
Speaker 4 (15:25):
Yeah, yeah, the guy you found out in the pier dead.
Speaker 1 (15:28):
And you said a man named Blake killed him.
Speaker 4 (15:29):
You know, Blake killed him. You know, Blake engineered to
hold up and then ran out on Hollis and me,
why sure, because you're in with him. I seen his
girl get in your cab in Los Angeles.
Speaker 1 (15:38):
Okay, so she got in my cab, but I didn't
know her. I'd never seen her before.
Speaker 4 (15:42):
She slipped you the key to this motel room, didn't
she Yeah.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
No, I think I know why she was trying to
sidetrack us, lead us to think the dough was here,
so it would take the pressure off Blake and her.
Speaker 4 (15:53):
That part of your story. I don't buy, Delly. I
think you know where that dough is and I want
it now.
Speaker 1 (15:57):
Look if you think I'm gonna take any more of.
Speaker 4 (16:02):
This, Gun says, that's exactly what you're gonna do until
you decide to talk.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
I roll with his next one and let my eyes
drop on my knees sack. He reached down to steady
of me, and I gave him a left foot in
the stomach that flattened. By the time he got to
his feet, I was out the door. I do behind
some bushes down the road, and I waited. He pounded
right on past me, gun in hand. I went until
(16:28):
he was out of sight and double back to my car.
Apparently Slattery didn't know Blake's girl was around here somewhere.
One thing was sure. I had to find it. Went fast.
There are only three motels in town, the one I
was staying at, the one where Slattery had been playing
paddy Cake on my jaw, on a third off the
highway and near the beach. I drove to that one
and checked the register. It showed a Myrnick Grant in
(16:51):
number eight.
Speaker 13 (17:01):
Please get out.
Speaker 1 (17:02):
Sorry, I didn't have that talk right now.
Speaker 8 (17:05):
I tell you you've made a mistake about me.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
Oh, come on, drop the egg miner. I know you
have Blake's girlfriend that just slipped that motel key in
my coat pocket in LA to get me off the
trailer Johnson payroll money.
Speaker 10 (17:18):
What.
Speaker 1 (17:18):
I also know that Blake master minded the robbery and
double cross this buddy held out on him.
Speaker 8 (17:23):
Oh, I guess I knew it must be something like that.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
What are you talking about, mister dollar.
Speaker 8 (17:32):
I haven't known Fred Blake very long, a month. Maybe
I didn't know what he did for a living, and
I didn't ask him. Two days ago, he said he
was in trouble and needed my help. He wanted me
to slip that key into your coat pocket and the
taxi in.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
Los Angeles take office trade.
Speaker 8 (17:46):
Then he told me to meet him here at the beach.
When I saw you in the bar a while ago,
I got panicky. I didn't know what to do. But
that's all I know about it, mister Dollar. I didn't
know Blake was a criminal, honestly I didn't.
Speaker 1 (17:59):
Yeah, now would you help me find him?
Speaker 3 (18:04):
Yes?
Speaker 8 (18:05):
I will, mister Dollar, if I can. The trouble is
right now. I don't know where he is any more
than you do.
Speaker 1 (18:20):
We'll it be folks.
Speaker 12 (18:21):
Hey, wait a minute, buddy, ain't you the one that
was molesting this young lady an hour ago?
Speaker 1 (18:27):
Or tiresan? Buddy, My molesting days are old.
Speaker 3 (18:29):
It's all right, Marknd.
Speaker 8 (18:31):
I'm sorry I caused you the trouble.
Speaker 1 (18:32):
No trouble, man, I'm just glad it turned out all right.
Things happened fast here at the beach. I guess I
don't suppose you've ever heard of a guy named Fred Blake?
Have you not that I.
Speaker 4 (18:43):
Remember you looking for me?
Speaker 1 (18:44):
Yeah? What do you look like?
Speaker 4 (18:46):
Medium?
Speaker 8 (18:47):
High, dark hair and brown eyes, regular features, that description
that fit.
Speaker 1 (18:53):
Half the guys that come in here. Sure, fisherman's salesman.
Va O, he's that kind. Don't come in here anymore, salesman,
No fisher I thought the fishing was good here been
no fishing around here for months. Ah. A fellow told
me they were getting a lot of bass right off
the pier.
Speaker 12 (19:09):
He was pulling your leg, buddy, there's a chemical plant nearby.
A lot of stuff got dumped into the water by
accident a few months.
Speaker 1 (19:16):
Ago to fish.
Speaker 12 (19:16):
Haven't been back since.
Speaker 1 (19:17):
Wait a minute, sure, right out of my nose all
the time. What do you mean, Johnny, when I'll see
you later. I got in my car and headed for
the pier. As it turned off the highway, I could
see a car a couple hundred yards back following me
with its lights off. But I couldn't stop now. I
parked near the pier and headed for the big shack.
(19:38):
The windows were still boarded over, but I could see
a crack of light between the boats. I eased over
to the sheck. Oh no, I flattened against the wall
as the door came open and Blake came out with
a gun. I hacked it out of his hand, all right,
It haulted Blake Well the fisherman's friend. Huh. Look, you'll
kill that guy on the end of the pier. Before
(20:00):
I showed up this morning, you didn't have time to leave,
so you covered by making like you worked here. Then
it occurred to you, this was a pretty good hideout
till Slattery got off your trail. Look, look, maybe we
can make a deal though. Oh we're going to You
turned the stolen money over to me, and I turned
you over to the police.
Speaker 4 (20:17):
Your gun, Dolly drop it, ok, Chase Slattery, Oh, Blake,
glad to see me.
Speaker 9 (20:26):
Look, Slattery, I wasn't trying to cross you. I was
going to get in touch with you when things quieted down.
Speaker 4 (20:32):
Sure you were.
Speaker 1 (20:34):
Let's have the dope, all right, gets in the shack.
Lake half turned and I saw his hand slide into
his coat. A second gun. He whipped it out, but
Slattery had seen it too. He got Blake, but his
eyes were off me for a lucky second. I checked Blake.
(20:55):
He was still alive. Yeah, they'd both keep for a
long time. Adam six one hundred and seventy four dollars
even air transportation in Incinatal's back home expense account total
five hundred and twenty six dollars fifty cents. Remarks The
payroll money is back where it belongs. Slattery and Blake
(21:18):
are back where they belong, with Blake facing a murder
raptive boot funny. I probably wouldn't nail it if he
hadn't told me that phony story about the fish fighting
near the pier. Teaches me a lesson. Pat I'm not
going to tell any more fish stories. They can kill you. Yours truly,
Johnny Dollar.

there stands yet another flag representing one of the fifty states.
Ohio's state flag is the only pennant shaped flag, or burgee.
Speaker 4 (22:07):
As it is correctly called.
Speaker 13 (22:09):
The Buckeye Banner, is the creation of an engineer who
created a blue triangle for the hills and valleys, red
and white stripes for the roads and waterways of the state.
There are thirteen stars for the original thirteen colonies, and
four extra stars to indicate that Ohio was the seventeenth
state admitted to the Union. A white circle with a
(22:33):
red center represents the initial letter of Ohio and suggests
its nickname, the Buckeye State. Ohio's state flag, a flag
of the seventeenth state to enter the Union, was adopted
on May nineteen hundred and two.
Speaker 5 (22:50):
Now here's our star to tell you about next week's story.

case for us. The gruesome spectacle matter join us, won't you? Yours?

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
