well, let's go ahead and take a listen to today's episode of Nick
1:27
Carter. Today's episode the Slingshot Murder. What's the matter? What is It's
1:46
another case for Nick Carter, that's the detective. Yes, it's another case
1:55
for that most famous of all men hunters, the detective whose ability it's solving
1:59
crime is unequaled in the history of detective fiction. Nick Carter, Master Detective,
2:04
presented by the three great LINEX home brighteners, Linux Clear Gloss, Linux
2:08
Cream Polish, and Linax self polishing wax created by ACME, America's great producer
2:15
of ACME Quality paints. Today's curious adventure, the sling Shot Murders, are
2:27
Nick Carter and the mystery of the broken window. In just a moment,
2:36
we'll find out how Nick Carter solved the mystery of the slingshot miners. But
2:39
first, here's something worth thinking about. A lovely home adds to the joy
2:44
of living. And just as thousands of American homemakers have brought new beauty to
2:49
their walls with kem Tone the Miracle wall finish, so are they learning that
2:53
LINEX self polishing wax gives their floors a satiny new luster without tiresome rubbingasily wiped
3:00
on Linux self polishing wax drives to a tough, elastic finish that resists wear
3:05
amazingly because it contains so much genuine carnava wax with no gum, shellac or
3:10
resin in it to chip or crumble. It resists water and dirt too,
3:15
so that soil is safely removed from the surface with a damp cloth or mild
3:19
SuDS. And Linux self polishing wax is the non skid floor finish, resisting
3:23
slip even when water is spilled on it. The underwriter's laboratories, whose seals
3:29
on each bottle have proved this. Ask for Linax self polishing wax at your
3:34
paint, hardware or department store headquarters for all three great Linux home brighteners,
3:39
and Kemtne, the miracle wall finish that dries in one hour. And now
3:47
for today's mysterious adventure with Nick Carter. Our story opens in Nick's office,
3:53
where he and Patsy are having a good natured argument. Good nature that is,
3:57
until about now. Nick. I don't think that's true. Take me,
4:01
for example, since I've been working with you, I've learned to observe
4:04
things I never saw before. Perhaps, Patsy, You've undoubtedly improved while you've
4:09
been my assistant, But I still say that you really see very little it
4:11
goes on around you in spite of all my training. Oh Nick, anybody
4:14
would think that has all right? Patsy. Let's see how many steps are
4:16
there from the sidewalk up to the front door of your house? While they're
4:19
at see there are high off the floor of the windows in your bedroom.
4:24
They're about two no, no, one and a half? What color is
4:27
a two cent stamp? Red? Good for you? Thought you were going
4:30
to say sharp? Cruel? Nicholas Carter's office? Is mister Carter there?
4:34
Oh? Is that you? Penny? Sure? How are you? Miss
4:36
Bourne? I'm fine things? How are things with you? Pretty good?
4:40
Can I talk to Nick? Of course? Penny here? He is?
4:43
Hello, Penny? How's my special assistant this afternoon? That's what I called
4:46
up about. Nick? I think that's going on down here? Could you
4:49
come over? What is it, Penny? Trouble? Gee? Nick?
4:53
I don't know, but it looks bad to me. Can't you tell me
4:56
what it is? Not on the phone? Nick? You know you always
4:59
talk me to be careful what I said on the phone. Some of the
5:01
gang might be listening in quite right, Penny? All right, I'll take
5:04
a run over there. You want your new stand? Yeah? Park your
5:08
car down the block away so they can't see it. I'll be waiting,
5:11
okay, Penny, be down right away, so long. What was it
5:14
all about? Nick? Sounded very important. Penny thought it was important too.
5:18
Well. He wouldn't say what it was. He's seen something and thinks
5:23
I ought to know about it. Oh that's what you get for being his
5:27
hero. Nick. He thinks you're just about the greatest guy in the world.
5:30
His ambition in life is to be a great detective like you. Yes,
5:32
I know it. And ever since this old man died in my arms,
5:35
I felt her sort of keep an eye on him. And he's smart
5:39
too, never forgets things I've told him about how to see what goes on
5:43
around him. Some people I know, not so very far from here,
5:46
could profit by his example. Okay, mister Carter, Okay, get in
5:50
your car and be on your way. Lead me to a little piece and
5:53
quiet here you when you're wise cracked very well, Patsy. Since I'm not
5:57
wanted here, I'll go call on Penny. He's got something more exciting up
6:00
his sleeve than I think he has. See Nick, I thought you were
6:14
never coming. Sorry, Penny, but you know how traffic is. Sure,
6:16
I know, come around the back of the stand next so nobody will
6:19
see us talking together. Okay, Penny, now, what's up. You
6:28
see across the street there you see the bank, yes, and you see
6:30
the empty stores on each side of the bank. Yes. Well, a
6:33
little while ago a big black sedan pulled up and two guys got out and
6:38
went into the vacant store on this side of the bank. Then two more
6:41
guys got out and went into the empty store on the other side. Then
6:45
the sedan drove away and left the four guys there. That's God, any
6:49
idea of what might be going on? Oh? Nick, there's several factories
6:54
around here. In Today's the day the bank downtown sends the money to this
6:59
bank for the pay Tomorrow's sad. Do you know? I see what you
7:02
mean, Penny. You think those men may be planning to hold up the
7:05
bank when the money gets here? Eh, gush, Nick, you want
7:09
to look like that to you could be Penny. Yes, there's look suspicious,
7:15
but Penny, robbery is not in my line. And this is a
7:17
job with Lieutenant Rally in the City Police. I'll give them a ring and
7:20
tell them what you saw. You'll have to hurry, Nick, It's almost
7:23
four o'clock and that's when the car comes with the money all out for on
7:26
Riley. Now maybe he can get one of the squad girls. It comes.
7:30
Look, yes, and I'm at car all right, and it's stopping
7:33
in front of the bank's starting them load the money, and they don't know
7:35
their maying I'll want back, Penny, keep out of the way. I'll
7:41
see if I can help the guys by picking up some of the thuds of
7:44
my gun. I won't. I'll stay behind this pole. I think,
7:56
Nick, Nick, please some hell my leg Nick, get away. Look,
8:03
we didn't stop them, But Doc, I tell you, there's nothing
8:16
wrong with me. Eh, nothing except that you've lost about a quarter of
8:20
blood. There's a nasty hole in the side of your neck. But I
8:22
can't stay here doing nothing. I've got to get after those thugs. I've
8:26
got to get out of here. They just told me you were here.
8:28
I heard that. Oh it's only a scratch, Patsy. But the saw
8:31
bones wants to keep me here cooped up like a pet rabbit. How is
8:33
he? Doctor, He's got a bad hole in the side of his neck,
8:37
and oh, nothing fatal. He'll get over it. But he's lost
8:39
a lot of blood too. He's got to be quiet and give nature.
8:41
And now look, Doc, look Nature's going to have a tough time doing
8:45
anything for me if you keep me here worrying because I can't get out.
8:46
Nick, you're going to stay here and like it. Good girl, you
8:48
don't behave I'll call some attendants and have them undress you. Then you'll have
8:52
to stay here, whether you like it or not. Patsy, I tell
8:54
you there's nothing there's Penny. What's he doing here here? I am,
9:01
Penny, I'm coming Son. You get right back in that dead Nick car.
9:03
Sorry, Patsy, Penny wants me, Penny, what happened to you?
9:09
Oh? Nothing much, Nick. A bullet got me in the leg,
9:13
that's all. That's all. Well, that's enough. You hurt,
9:15
pat Son. No, Doc says, I'll be all right in a few
9:18
days. But I got something to tell you, Nick. What is it?
9:20
Son? You know when I yelled at you just before you got shot?
9:24
Yes, I remember, I saw a guy stand in the window of
9:26
the house across the street from the bank, must have been a look out
9:30
or something, and just as I looked up, I saw a name at
9:33
you, so I yelled and he fired. Did you get a good look
9:37
at him, Penny? No, But I know which window it was.
9:39
Good boy. Which one was it? You'll see I busted it with my
9:43
slingshot, so do you know it? I put a mob a right through
9:46
it now in the first shot too, I thought maybe you're trying to clue
9:48
there. If you look, Penny, you're a wonder. I am proud
9:52
to have you for an assistance. It was a window on the fourth floor
9:56
of a brown house. You can't miss it, Yes, sir Penny,
9:58
I'm proud to have you for the system. Nick. Are you going to
10:01
get back to bed or do? I? I can't go back to bed,
10:03
Pensy, I've got to go places thanks to do can't let Penny town,
10:05
not after the way he fixed things up for me. Nick. Yes,
10:07
Penny, take this with you. Nick. It's as good as a
10:09
gun. Sometimes I use it a lot. Well, well, thanks,
10:13
Penny. That slingshot of yours may come in handy. I'll keep it right
10:18
where I can get at it fast if I need it. Oh here you
10:20
Nick? You're right? Why certainly? I am all right? You've got
10:22
any other gang? No, Nick, we didn't. We found the car.
10:26
They were in Rick six blocks away, but there was nobody in it.
10:28
The car was stolen tool so that's no help because they get much.
10:31
Well, three guys he killed, one in the hospital, and one hundred
10:35
thousand dollars in small bills is missing, and so I know he'd got a
10:39
lead in the world. Right now, Well I have thanks to Penny here.
10:43
Penny, who's Penny, my assistant and one of the best assistants a
10:48
man could ever have. He just gave me some dope that may crack the
10:50
whole case wide open. Well what is it? Man? Tell me quick?
10:54
Not yet, rally, This is confidential between Penny and me. If
10:56
it works out, I'll let you know. Well, Penny, so long,
11:00
I'll be seeing you. So on, Nick, Good luck, Nick
11:01
Carter. Where are you going now? I'm out on the trail, Patsy,
11:03
and nothing can stop me. Well, if I can't stop you,
11:05
at least I'm going with you. Certainitely can't drive a car and your condition
11:09
okay, then come on. Time's are wasting. Look, jose you need
11:11
some help. Nick. I'll send some of the boys with you. No,
11:13
Riley, this is a one man job, and I'm the man who's
11:16
going to try to do it. Patsy, I wish you hadn't come.
11:31
There may be trouble you may just as well save your breast, mister Cotta,
11:35
because I'm going wherever you're going. And that's that. You can't drive
11:37
in your condition. I could if you'd let me. Well, I'm not
11:39
going to let you. So that's that. I don't know what gets into
11:43
you women when you make up your mind as a team of horses. Couldn't
11:46
change it. You ready to tell me where you're going? I can't keep
11:50
on driving blindly all around the city. All right, all right, I
11:54
give up. I'm going back to the scene of the robbery. What are
11:56
you going to do there? That my nose? A young is strictly my
12:01
business? Okay, okay, but I feel a lot safer if I knew
12:05
what you were planning to do. It's duck. Now you can pull up
12:09
just around the corner from the bank. I'll get out there. Then you
12:13
go back to the office. How would you get that? Don't worry about
12:16
me. I can take care of myself, I hope. So is this
12:20
where you want to go? Yes? Drop me here now? Remember you
12:26
back to the office. Okay, bully, but I don't like you going
12:31
anywhere alone. As weak as you are, it's still that counts in this
12:33
business Patsy, not muscle. I'll get going. I've got work to do.
12:46
So Nick is going alone to investigate the house where the killers were who
12:50
shot him? Does he company idea what dangerous lie ahead of him? And
12:54
will he find any clues to the killers? We'll see in just a moment.

14:01
story. We left Nick, weak from loss of blood, climbing the stairs
14:05
to the fourth floor of the old tenement house, trying to find some clue
14:09
to the killers who shot him and robbed the bank. As we rejoin him,
14:11
he's nearly reached the top. I wish it wasn't the fourth floor.
14:20
I don't feel as ambitious as I did. Well, that's a break.
14:26
Only one apartment on the street side and listen went home. Judging by the
14:31
light under the door, here goes, well, what do you want.
14:41
I'm investigating the bank hold up across the street this afternoon bank hold up?
14:46
Yes, you knew the bank was held up, didn't you? Yeah?
14:48
I heard. I was out working at the time. What do you want
14:52
to get in here for? I want to look out of your windows?
14:56
She's like this. We have a witness who says he saw the whole thing
14:58
from the windows next door on this level. He's a cranky old guy with
15:03
a reputation for stretching the truth. So I want to check up on him,
15:07
like to look from your windows and see if he really could have seen
15:09
what he said he did. Sounds nutty to me. Why don't you look
15:13
out at his windows? I did, but I still can't be sure.
15:16
So I want to check all the windows on this floor. There ain't no
15:20
use in well, okay, come on here, thanks, I want to
15:24
belong. Mind if I put this window straight up, search yourself. I
15:31
can't see much from here. I'll try the other window. HM, can't
15:39
see anything from here either. I guess the old guy was dreaming. I
15:43
couldn't see the bank at all with an armored car standing in front of it.
15:46
You're satisfied now so far? Yes, Okay, to look at the
15:50
other room too, Yeah, I guess so. My wife's in there.
15:56
I'll see if she's dressed. Certainly, no broken windows in this room,
16:00
none of them. Somebody coming in marrying your dressed Okay, Copper, you
16:07
can go in. Thanks. Sorry to bother you, lady. I won't
16:18
be about a minute. Okay, take your time. No broken windows here
16:25
either. Then he must have made a mistake in the window. How about
16:29
it, Copper, I guess the old guy must have. Hey, do
16:33
you have any children in the house? No kids? Fine? Oh,
16:37
just saw a marble here on the floor and wondered. Then he said,
16:41
he shut a marble for the window. I'll come on. If you've seen
16:44
all, you want your better Just a minute, just a minute, I
16:47
want to take another look at this window. Get your hands up, flat
16:52
foot, make it snap out and say, well you don't huh? You
16:55
come up here looking for a broken winter, didn't you? When you didn't
16:57
find none, you go around poking your finger is in the puddy. Well
17:00
really rid of kid me. I've been watching you. So you found a
17:03
winner with a soft putty where we put the new pane of glass in.
17:07
Well, I won't do you no good now, all right, slug,
17:10
I'll take over now by Jake Blanner. So your slug's wife, yeh,
17:17
I'd never have known you're that woman's outfit. Pretty clever, not cleverer than
17:21
you, copper. You come right up here just begging for it, didn't
17:25
you. I thought we'd give it to you for keeps out in front of
17:27
the bank this afternoon. But I'm glad now we didn't. This is going
17:32
to be more fun. We can make it last longer. Turn him down,
17:37
No, slug, shooting's too quick. I got a better plan for
17:41
this dumb punk than that. Go right ahead, gentlemen. Don't mind me,
17:45
but do you mind if I put my arms down? Get his gun?
17:48
Slug, Sure, Jake, quite a surprise to find us here,
17:52
copper in It. Never figured we'd hide out right here alongside the bank,
17:56
did you? And dumb cops probably are searching all over the city looking for
18:00
where we went to, and all the time we're right here. Hey,
18:03
Jake, this guy's a regular arsenal. Three guns he's got, I don't
18:08
care how many's got. Take him all away from him, Hey, Jake,
18:14
look at this. He's got three guns and a slingshot. Are you
18:18
kidding? The cup carrying a slingshot around her? Keep the big bat robbers
18:22
away? What a mug he is? Oh? Look now, Slug,
18:26
don't take all the flat foot's weapons away? Where's your manners? Leave him?
18:33
Keep the sling shot? Why, sure, here, mister dick,
18:37
I'll put it right back in your pocket where it came from. Maybe you'll
18:41
save your life with it. Look what Santa Claus brought us to play with?
18:49
Pete, Well up for your monkey's Look when he blowing walked right up
18:53
the stairs all by himself. Look cover that you ever have a lighted cigar?
19:00
But jen in your eye. That's just for us. Start then we're
19:03
gone. You're not. Look, I'll get him slide. Give me that
19:07
gun, Jake, give me a letter. I'll twist your arm off.
19:10
The white Jake, a nice white look. You knocked him cold. I'll
19:19
fix him for this. He nearly broke my wrists. Shall I crown him
19:23
now, Jake? No, wait till we get ready to leave. Then
19:27
we'll play games with him. Tie him up, but good. We'll get
19:30
the stuff ready to move out when the boys bring the car tonight. Then
19:33
we'll come back here and take care of him. Over on your face,
19:37
flat foot, so I can get the ropes on you. Wouldn't he like
19:41
to know that we got all that dough hidden in the empty warehouse right next
19:47
door here. It's a little hole through the worthy apartment here, and we
19:52
got a fool proof hideout. Yeah, you know, if he was only
19:56
smart like Jake, i'd be afraid of him. But there ain't nobody the
19:59
smartest, the copper that takes care of you. Try and get out of
20:04
them ropes. Hey, won't you let the flat foot in here for anyways?
20:08
Pluck? Don't pete, pete? If I hadn't it to smell something
20:11
funny and come back again with a wagon. Anyways, How did I know
20:15
he was wise to the busted glass? You know, Jake, maybe you
20:19
ain't so smart at that. Yeah, what's hitting you? Well? You
20:23
thought it was so smart to double back here with the cash and hide out
20:27
right across the street from the bank and fast thing A cop smells his way
20:33
right up here? So what only one cop come? Ton't he? And
20:37

the copper, clean up the joint, good fingerprints, and any kind of
20:52
junk that might leave a tip. Don't leave nothing. We'll be back when
20:56
we took care of the dough. Okay, Jay, I'll watch him.
21:00
Oh oh, fell into it right this time. I should have had somebody
21:18
standing by, just in case. Whoever tied these ropes you nobody was doing.
21:29
I'll never get out of these, hands tied together, elbows tied tied
21:33
to my body. I'll oh my head. Wish I had felt as happy
21:41

21:52
think I can get my hands loose. Ah there ah, But what good
22:03
is that? My elbows tight up? Tight? Oh? If only I
22:07
had some way to get word outside of him up here, I can't shout.
22:11

22:15
I had a gun, I could, but Slug took them only I had.
22:22
Ah, I do have one weapon left? Many sling shot, sling

Somebody might find it. Shoot something, shoot something? What? Shoot?

What? Shoot? What? My badge, my badge, my honorary
22:40
police badge. Only I can get it out of my pocket. Holy,
22:45
I can reach it. Never have had much use for that badge, but
22:52
I certainly need it now. Oh I can't get in the pocket. Well,
22:56
I can tear it open. There, got it? Now for the
23:03
sling shot the outside bucket. There we are. Now I can stretch my
23:10
arms faring at the barn to shoot this patch through the window. I can't
23:15
what what the hey, Kava, what are you trying to the guy still
23:22
out cold. He couldn't have done nothing, but somebody broke that window.
23:27
Maybe the Dick's only faken, Maybe he ain't really out. Let me take
23:33
a look. Oh what a break, he's out cold. I thought he
23:38
wasn't coming close enough so I could grab his legs, but he did.
23:41
Lady, Luck must be on my side today. Just Luck his head head
23:45
on the radiator that way. Now, if I can wriggle over there and
23:48
get his gun just a little more, h Jake will be back any minute,
23:56
But I got to get that gun before there. Now, I hope
24:04
I can roll back under the bed before Jake gets here. So far,
24:14
so good, Lady Lock, stay with me. Slug what happened? Slug?
24:18
Slug? Hey, look, Jake, the kap is gone and slugs
24:22
out cold. I thought I told you guys the tie that foot up so
24:25
we couldn't move. We did it looks like you did. Come on,
24:27
Maybe we can catch him outside before it gets away. Yeah, hey,
24:30
Jake. Dick looked at the door still locked. Dick couldn't have gun out
24:34
this way. Oh, he didn't get out the way we come in.
24:37
He must still be here. Look on the top with their hands both of
24:40
you up. I said, I'm not pulling. That's that's the oneing.
24:45
I said, I'm not pulling. I'll drop your guns on the floor.
24:48
Both of you. We better do it, Jake. He means, didn't
24:51
you better? I do? Drop those guns fast? Okay, you win?
24:56
Well, Now drop the other one, Jake, I know you have
25:02
two of them. Eh good, I'll pete slowly and easily kick the guns
25:08
over toward me. Just stay where you are. I'll kick those guns over.
25:17
That's better. Now, what tell you? No? I want you
25:21
to stay right there, and I'll stay right here a minute. It's all
25:25
right, Jake. He can't last long now. All we gotta do is
25:29
wait U till he falls over. He's not so much blood now, he
25:32
can't hardly sit up. Sure, how long you think you're gonna hold out,
25:37
Copper long enough to see you three thugs in jail? I bet that
25:41
don't nobody know you're up here? So how do they expect to be rescued?
25:45
I sent a messenger out the window, tell my friends I'm here waiting
25:48
for them. Look, Jake, the window is busters ho what this flat
25:52
foot will be out cold long before anybody comes up here, unless it's the
25:57
boys with a cock to take us out of here. I think I can
26:03
last that long coup of Hey, you'll never be able to hold that gun
26:07
on us for another two hours. You might as well give up now,
26:11
Coppa. Thanks, So I want to take you three mugs in so bad
26:17
I'll I'll wait all night. I have to get back. I can see
26:34
you. How don't you try any funny business with me. He's almost gone,
26:40
jee and a couple of minutes, and he'll be out like a light.
26:44
As soon as he drops that gun. We'll rush you. I don't
26:48
know how we lasted this long. Stay right there, say that here.
26:52
I can wait just as long as long he's gone. You get the rent
27:04
of your Nick. Hello, Patsy, what's going on here? Nick?
27:10
Here's the thugs that stuck up the bank. Money's a warehouse next door.
27:17
You're a wonder, Nick, take care of these fellow hudgeons. Tend a
27:19
couple of minute get the money out of the warehouse, like Nick says,
27:22
Oh, Nick, I've been so I prayed for you. Did they hurt
27:25
you? I'm all right, Patty, that's a little little time. She's
27:30
a great girl, that Patsy. When she left you. She phoned me
27:33
and told me what you were trying to do. Nick. So I got
27:36
some of the men together and came as quick as I could, and we
27:37
got a flat tire, and we'd have been here sooner. And look,
27:41
he here's your badge, Nick, little ben, but as good as new.
27:45
Thanks, Rally, Lucky you've found it. It wasn't me that found
27:48
it was Patsy, your healthier You found it, Patsy, yes, Nick,
27:53
And then Rally's part of the broken window, and we came up.
27:56
But don't ever let me hear you say again that I'm not observing, Mayfe.
28:00
I don't know how many steps there are in front of my house.
28:03
When it comes to things that count, I can see them. How about
28:17
next week's adventure, Nick, got something exciting coming up? I certainly have
28:19
can if you'll take a trans continental train stalled high in the mountains in a
28:25
raging blizzard and mix it with the murder of an opera singer and her maid,
28:29
and add the theft of one hundred and fifty thousand dollars worth of jewels
28:32
from the set opera singer, and a snow slide down the mountain right where
28:36
the train is stalled, and you have the puzzle and crime that I was
28:38
up against. Sounds pretty complicated to me, Nick. How'd you find the
28:41
solution? Or the solution depended on two things a broken bottle of perfume and
28:47
a chow dog that was lost in the snow. You certainly make it sound
28:49
attractive. Did it work out? Okay? You should ask that, knowing
28:52
Nick? Sorry, what do you call the story? I call it Murder
28:56
on Mad Mountain or the Mystery of the Opera Singer Is Dog? So long
29:00
for now, So long everybody, and so long to you, Nick and
29:03
Patsy. We'll be looking forward to seeing you again next week. Next week,
29:11
at the same time, listen to another curious experience of Nick Carter Master

30:26
Well, this isn't my favorite episode of Nick Carter. I did like
30:29
the kid in there kind of added an interesting dynamic. I think that the
30:34
big problem is that much of this comes from Nick Carter just taking some really
30:41
dumb risk. I think that it was it was basically this thing. Okay,
30:51
so I am seriously wounded and just barely able to move around. I
30:56
don't need backup, backup as for lamps. I mean, we've seen Nick
31:00
get into some scrapes, but he's never gotten into scrapes over just being that
31:07
