Malone, Operator Operator, Give me the office of John J. Malone.
1:30
The National Broadcasting Company presents The Amazing Mister Malone, an exciting half hour of
1:37
mystery, starring George Petrie as the lawyer who's practiced before every type of bar
1:42
has become a legend. Our locale is the city of Chicago, the time,

the present, and the hero of these weekly adventures, The Amazing Mister
1:53
Malone. Loan's name John J. Malone, Attorney in constort law, goodnight,
2:12
and our study of the cliche, let's examine the familiar Early to bed
2:16
and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wives. But that's
2:20
true, Jeff Lewis is destined for failure. Jeff's a good looking boy,
2:24
coming home at four in the morning. It's easy to understand why he keeps
2:28
the same hour as I do. He's a musician. He plays piano with
2:30
Rusty Gates band. Jeff's not the only musician in the family. He's got
2:35
a wife who've been sound off too, But of course her solos aren't nearly
2:38
as sweet, is that you? Jeff? Huh butt, you'd be asleep,
2:43
Claire, my sleep. You realize what time it is? Yeah,
2:46
it's four o'clock. Where have you been? You got off of two?
2:51
I'm out for coffee with Rusty. He went out for coffee with Rusty,
2:54
That's what I said. I suppose you two were alone. Oh look,
2:59
man, we have to say start that I'm tired. You're tired. Do
3:02
you ever think of me sitting here till all hours of the night, worrying
3:05
myself sick, wondering what's happened to you? Thinking maybe you gotta hit by
3:08
a car. Oh, now you're being ridiculous. Where are my jam I'm
3:12
ridiculous. Yes, I don't know why you bother coming home at all.
3:15
I sometimes wonder myself and why do you? Why don't you just say you're
3:19
tired of me? If you want to know it? Oh wait, look,
3:23
look coming Please, let's let's not fight. You know how I feel
3:27
about you, but every night it's the same thing, over and over again.
3:32
I'm I'm sorry, dear. I don't mean to act like this.
3:38
I just can't stop my still. I love you so much I can't see
3:43
straight. I love you too, honey. I don't blame you for being
3:47
angry, but every time I see all those women hanging around the bence and
3:52
just a bunch of jerks, I wouldn't give two cents for any one of
3:55
them. You're a darling to put up with me. Come on, make
4:00
you some coffee. Yeah that sounds like okay. I'll get right to work
4:05
and maybe you can make a sandwich too. I thought you ate with Rusty
4:11
Right when you came in. You said you were out with him. I
4:15
was, And no, how come you're so hungry? Oh, I said?
4:19
Was I read it there too? Read it? Oh? Haven't you
4:24
met Rusty's wife? I thought you two were old friends. After all,
4:27
she's been singing with the band for three years. Don't think you're fooling me.
4:31
I know what's going on. You're out of your mind. You must
4:34
have been, and I am now not to see it before. Well,
4:39
I'll say one thing for you, mister Lewis. You were real clever.
4:42
But you're not going to get away with it. Understand. I'll kill you
4:44
first. Jeff, Jeff, where are you going? I didn't mean it,
4:49
Jeff, Honey, Please, Jef, that's a second. Give me
5:11
a chat. We look, you're wire. I I'm alone. What's your
5:15
idea, Jeffy, I was in the neighborhood, so I thought I just
5:18
dropped by. What's no matter of Claire lockyout, not that I blame her
5:21
in your condition, you're loaded anither. That's one case I'll never get to
5:27
handle. I bought you never touch this stuff. Oh I'm celebrating. Hey,
5:30
you better sit down, No mind if I do. What's the trouble?
5:34
Trouble? Who's got trouble? Obviously you have? Well you know you're
5:40
right, Claire. Yeah, Well, I suppose it was bound to happen.
5:45
What do you want me to do is start suit for divorce? What
5:47
makes you say it was bound to happen? You forget I've seen her in
5:51
action. Every time a dame asked you to play a tune, she goes
5:55
nuts. No, she she says, she's crazy about me. I suppose
5:58
she is. Well, why can't we make a goal? Because Claire is
6:01
not happy unless she's tormenting herself. She's sick. Well, I'll draw up
6:04
the papers first thing in the morning. You know you know what she said.
6:09
She accused me of having a mad romance with reader Rusty's wife. Imagine
6:15
me and Riata. Hey, I suppose we did. That would teach you
6:24
If you're thinking what I think you are, forget it. Rusty would break
6:28
your back and I wouldn't blame him. You let me get you a nice
6:30
divorce the only girl I ever loved, and you want to see it's ah,
6:36
Jeff, Oh, Claire needs is a lesson, and she asks for
6:42
it, and she's gonna get it. I tell you you're handling this the
6:45
wrong way. How would you know? You were never even married? And
6:48
this sort of thing vindicates my judgment. You know you're a trouble Malone.
6:53
You're a cynic, and now I'm going to prove that you're wrong. Any
7:08
of you guys want to get something to eat? What about you? Jeff?
7:12
You're coming along? Well? I thought Rita and I were gonna run
7:15
over a couple of tunes. Why don't you remember? Really you said you
7:18
want to go over that new cold porter thing. Well, that's right,
7:21
I did. Why don't you kids do it tomorrow? You know what they
7:25
say, Rusty never put off for tomorrow? Who you can do today?
7:29
Aren't you? And the boys? Good? Mic for meet you? All
7:30
right? You fellas ready? What are you waiting for? See you?
7:33
Katling? Well, I must be losing my mind. I don't get you.
7:43
Really, I don't remember asking you to run over any tunes with me.
7:46
Oh sorry, I thought you did. I guess I misunderstood. No,
7:50
you didn't. Why did you tell Russy we were going to rehearse?
7:54
Because I've been working with you for three years and this is the first time
7:57
you ever gave me a tumble? Wow, kild like to skip it?
8:01
Are you kidding? Well? Shall we get right down to works? You
8:07
know you're cute. I was wondering if you'd ever come around. Look Rita,
8:11
I admit a mistake. You see, did I ask for any explanations
8:16
enough? You wanted to be alone with me? No, you don't understand.
8:20
I understand that we're wasting time. We got to meet resting, but
8:24
you don't. Hey, we shouldn't have done that, But well I did
8:31
it hurt. No, but I don't think anyone wants the durn this man
8:35
for talking Lucky. I know a wonderful way to shut you out. Ll
8:41
me a baby, let me show you? Yeah? Is that you?
9:00
Oh? Listen, I told you before. Not Jeez, you can't hang
9:03
up on me. You don't know what I've been going through all this week,
9:05
ever since he moved out. I should have done it long ago.
9:09
Maybe not even an idea what I've been through these past four years. Jeff,
9:13
I'm sorry. I'll make it up to you if only you'll come home.
9:18
No, Jeff, please, I promise I'll never be jealous again.
9:22
I know you're only saying, Rita to teach me a lesson? What makes
9:24
you think so? Because you love me? Maybe I don't anymore? No,
9:30
Jeff, you mustn't say that you don't believe it yourself. Well,
9:33
Claire got to get this through your head. Comes a time when a guy
9:37
gets fed up. I've had a baby. You're the one who did the
9:41
job. Rita Sea some variety. They herd backs working at the Riverside Hotel
9:58
and Reno. I'll tell you later. I think we got company. There's
10:03
a second, Claire. I'm sorry to bother you. Rusty. Oh that's
10:11
all right, honey, come on in. Have you seen Jeff Well?
10:16
What do you mean he hasn't been home in a week. I'm going out
10:20
of my mind. You better sit down. You want to drink? No
10:22
thanks, Rusty, you gotta help me. Look, Claire, I I
10:28
don't like to interfere in somebody else's but it's your business. It never would
10:33
have happened if it hadn't been for Rita. What she turned him against me?
10:37
You're nuts. Look maybe she can fool you, but she can't fool
10:41
me. I knew she was after him the minute I saw him. If
10:43
you don't believe me trying on she is, asked her, Ask me,
10:48
what? Don't play innocent? Rita? It's out of character, all right,
10:52
Claire? I think you better go. You'll believe me. How can
10:56
you be so blind? Can't you see she's nothing, but I no,
11:00
just get out of here before I throw you off. Why don't you ask
11:03
about the other boys in the band? Why do you think Hank's white made
11:07
him leave? She was running after him for a lie. That's why you
11:11
picked on Jeff. But he doesn't love you. He couldn't listen you the
11:13
day. I couldn't take go on end of the day, you couldn't take
11:18
what honey? What's the matter with you? You're gonna listen to a crazy
11:22
dang? Who are you calling? Crazy? But I don't have to put
11:26
up you? All right, Claire? All right, you said your piece.
11:30
I just clear out. Come on, let's go with me, Let
11:33
me go. I'll let you go when you're outside. Yes, that girl's
11:41
insane, that's possible. Now what is this about you and Jeff? You're
11:50
not gonna believe her, not if you can convince me she's wrongs. Yea,
11:52
I swear there's nothing to me. I wonder Bonnie made a remark about
11:56
you last night, about your rehearsing all the time. If you don't want
11:58
me to look through come so suddenly you're interested? Huh? You never cared
12:01
before, but maybe it's time we did a little work. Together. All
12:09
right, lady, you start singing and you better make it good. Oh,
12:20
oh, that's yes, sir. This is Jeff Lewis before nineteen.
12:26
I called for a bellboy twenty minutes ago. What happened to him? He's
12:28
probably on his way up, sir. How's he coming? By way of
12:31
sister? Oh? Please see if you can onn of mine. He's here
12:33
now a second, I said, just a second. You take a year
12:39
and then, but what are you doing here? Shouldn't have? Oh?
13:03
I tell it? What are you? Well? Hey, wait a minute,
13:07
counselor how do you know? What was me? I have an answer
13:09
to my phone this way all week? The law of average you said,
13:11
I'd be right once. Oh you're amazing, mister Malone. That's what I
13:15
keep telling you. What are you doing? What else will I have you
13:16
doing at four in the morning? Ooh what I know about you? He'll
13:20
be so funny. I assume you have a reason for disturbing me at this
13:22
home. You assume properly. Look how soon could he get down a headquarters?
13:28
You know, Jeff Lewis? Oh, very well? What do you
13:30
get himself into the maugue? What are you babbling about? He was knocked
13:33
off at two thirty this morning. Well, we kind of suspicion it was
13:37
his wife, but naturally you're can approve we're wrong, Claire. Ask you
13:39
upon me, you don't think I'd waste a taxpayers money on the call of
13:43
my own. Come on down, Malone, your public's waiting. You are
13:48

Then later Dimension X brings you the Tales in the Future tens. This week's
14:24
feature Pebble in the Sky, written for radio by Ernest Conoy, it tells
14:30
the story of time when the civilization of the galaxy spreads across two hundred million
14:35
worlds, when the black void of space swarms with ships of interstellar commerce.
14:39
But far off the trade routes, almost forgotten, lies the dying planet Earth,
14:45
in the backwater of the universe, a place of exile, a pebble

in the sky Sunday on this station, and ah, back to the amazing
14:56
mister Malone. Well, like the man says, that's life for you one
15:11
minute, youre got it in the next minute. James Jeff Lewis found that
15:16
out the hard way. Half hour after I got the news, I was
15:18
on my way to headquarters, and when I walked in, I was greeted
15:20
by Lieutenant Brooks with the most original line of the year. Well, it's
15:24
the amazingness to my alone. You know something, Lieutenant, you could stand
15:28
some new material. Yeah, but where am I going to find a writer
15:31
on myself? Where's Claire Lewis? You want to see you? Now?
15:33
What do you think I came down here for. Well, I kind of
15:35
hoped it was me. Husband got Claire Lewis right, what's the matter with
15:41
him? I didn't even say hello. We didn't recognize you with that briefcase
15:43
under yourrom what you got near your laundry? Excuse me? Oh, come
15:46
on in, Claire alone, you came uh huh, sit down and tell
15:56
you about Jeff uh huh he dead? Jeff? I know I don't want
16:03
to live anymore? Are you talking like a fool? I don't want to
16:07
live without him. Why did you send him alone? He's got a point
16:10
there, lover. No either you want me to get you off? I
16:11
don't know what I want? What do you think killed him? Rita?
16:15
Rita Gates? She did it? Malone? Why should she? Because she
16:21
she knew he didn't care for He was just using Rita to get back at
16:23
me. Did Jeff tell you that he didn't have to? When was the
16:26
last time you saw him? I don't remember. I can tell you it
16:30
was at two thirty this morning. He went to his hotel when he opened
16:33
the No, no, no, no, that's true. I love Why
16:36
don't you lay offer? Sidney? Can't you see what she's gone through your
16:38
head? My lord? She killed him as sure as your standing. No,
16:41
no, all right, lieutenant. You made a lot of accusations.
16:44
But where's you're having it? We'll produce it at the trial. And you
16:45
haven't any yet? Huh have you any? She didn't? No? I
16:48
guess we're all in the same boat, and it's up to me to find
16:49
a paddle. All right, Claire, take care of yourself. I'll be
16:53
seeing you real soon. Hello, ready, Why I'm alone? I come
17:11
in well? Rust he's not here. It's all the better. I never
17:15
believed it's so nice to have a man around the house. If you're not
17:18
the one, let me take you to oh bother. It's fine Now I
17:26
should be mad at you? What on earth for? You haven't been over
17:30
at the club to hear me sing in months? Oh, I'll never forgive
17:33
myself. Would you feel better if I slash my wrists? You're cute?
17:37
You ought to see me in my confirmation suit. I look like a doll
17:40
in it? Too bad? I got to break it in at Jeff's funeral.
17:42
Oh, we have to talk about him? Oh I would you sooner
17:47
talk about us? And then we have to come back to Jeff. I
17:51
don't like to start a campaign with my last rival still warm in the morgue.
17:56
That's that supposed to me? Well, it occurred to me. Maybe
17:59
you killing him? Are you crazy? You know when you found out he
18:02
was playing here for a sucker? He played me for a soccer That was
18:04
an id he got one night in my apartment. He wanted to give Claire
18:07
something really to worry about. I try to todd him all that. What's
18:11
the matter. Don't you think I'm cute? Anymore. Get here, don't
18:14
you dare throw that up? Hey, you missed me. I'm convinced a
18:18
girl like you couldn't miss twice. Maybe I'll give you another chance later.
18:33
It's only me, rita rusty. I'm so glad I have a miserable afternoon
18:42
rehearsal book. Real bad boys are all sick about Jeff just will be tough
18:48
taking a new piano player. Is that all you can think of? Oh?
18:52
No, Rassi, I explained that Clare was imagining things. You didn't
18:57
mean a thing to mean. What was Malone doing? Malone the lawyer?
19:02
Oh oh, he's representing Claire, he taught maybe I could help her out.
19:06
What'd you tell him? What could I tell him? Maybe about you
19:08
and Jeff having a deal. Oh, you're getting bad as sheet. If
19:11
you mean I'm jealous, you're right, Only I got a good reason.
19:15
Look, Russy, we've been all through, sure we have, and you
19:18
convinced me Claire was nuts. Yeah, you really talked me out of it.
19:21
But since then, honey, I've been doing a little checking and you've
19:23
got your nerves. You know I'm crazy about you. Reader. You're no
19:29
good. Everybody knows it, don't you talk to me like that. Who's
19:33
got a better ride? Do you know? It's funny? It doesn't make
19:37
any difference. I don't care what you did. I still feel the same
19:41
way about it. Oh, I'm overwhelmed. Now. I want to know
19:45
what Malone said. None of your business, and I'm going to find out
19:49
if I have to shake it out. It was just one of those things,
20:03
just one of those crazy things, one of those bills that now and
20:07
then raise flat them alone. I'll look rusty. I can go along with
20:11
a gag, but this is too much. You know, this is the
20:15
third week in a row. I've walked in here and finally joint occupy.
20:17
Better get a new lock. It's an idea. What do you want?
20:19
I just finished having a little talk with Reader. Now I suppose it's my
20:22
turn. What'd you say to him? Didn't ready to tell you? Maybe
20:26
I want to compare notes. You don't have to worry, Rusty. This
20:30
was purely business about Jeff Lewis. Yeah, yeah, she was telling the
20:36
truth. You're trying to frame her for his murder. I don't have to
20:40
frame her alone. If you involved Reader in this, I'll kid you.
20:42
I mean, Nat, I believe you too. Him. It is not
20:45
to be mentioned at Claire's trial. You understand me. Don't see how we're
20:48
going to keep it up. I want you you bring her in and I'll
20:49
break every bone in your bit, even my little pinky mat. Don't think
20:52
I can. You're taking in a lot of territory. According to the Encyclopedia,
20:56
there are hundreds of bones in the human frame. If you think I'm
20:57
wait a minute, you would have a man who will yellow show you your
21:02
rusty. Why can't we be friends? Just to prove I've got no heart
21:03
beat away? I just want to get this bottle. Maybe we can split
21:07
it together. Well that's opening it the hard way, But you'll have to
21:14
forgive me. Friend, I forgot my cork. Screw yo hoes? Anybody
21:27
home? Oh no? What did I do to deserve this? Wire?
21:32
Should be grateful? Like lieutenant, I want to talk to you. Yeah,
21:34
but the first time about hutting off that telegraph? You out of your
21:37
mind. I'm expecting a very important flash score. The White Sox game will
21:41
be through any minute if you won't do it. You know that's what I
21:48
like. I like to see a man make himself at home. Where's Claire?
21:52
Lord? You know time, where which she is. You gotta let
21:52
her go? Oh I suppose you can prove she's this? Yes, I
21:56
got it all figured out. I'm telling you, broch, you bring her
21:57
to court and I'll crucify you. You haven't even established a motive for the
22:00
girl. Ay you kidding? Claire was crazy about Jeff and she lost.
22:03
No, she didn't. Jeff was only seeing rid it a needler. Look,
22:07
look, Malone, I got work to do now. Now, why
22:08
don't you go home? I can't holme in a fit place for me right
22:11
now? You know who's there? All right? Up place straight? Who's
22:14
there, mister Malone? Jeff floy iss killer? No, I'm serious,
22:17
lieutenant, it's Rusty Gates. What's he doing at your place right now?
22:19
I imagine he's dozing. I put him asleep with a bottle. What are
22:22
you talking about? I had a conquer Why, well, it was either
22:26
him or me, and naturally I was prejudiced. Did he have a gun?
22:27
No, why didn't you use your fists? Are you kidding? Rusty
22:30
must weigh two hundred and forty pounds, so we would have murdered man so
22:33
skilled, Look, lieutenant, quit the kippitts and I tell you he killed
22:36
Jeff why he thought Jeff was breaking up his happy home. You make it
22:40
sound very convincing, thanks, I said it sounded convincing. Actually at eight,
22:44
what are you babbling about now? Jeff was killed at two thirty at
22:47
the Hillcresto Hotel. So at two thirty Rusty was doing a benefit on the
22:52
North Shore where he was seen by eighty thousand citizens. Well that doesn't make
22:56
sense, Yeah, that's right now. How can one man be in two
22:59
places this is at the same time, unless he's a lazy and she is
23:02
the only one who reads that to me. Well, it's been Grand Malone.
23:06
Dropped by again when you can't stay so long you are listening to the
23:14
amazing mister Milone. In this great year of Decision, the Armed Forces of
23:25
the United States offer a greater challenge to the young men of America than ever
23:27
before. It's a vital, exciting challenge to anyone interested in his personal welfare,
23:33
the welfare of his nation, or the welfare of the world. Service
23:37
in today's modern Armed Forces means a career, a career in which any man
23:41
can take pride and satisfaction. The new training program prepares the serviceman not only
23:45
for advancement and leadership in the Armed forces themselves, but for positions of responsibility
23:49
in civilian life. A career in the Armed Forces means education and technical training
23:56
in the world's best technical schools. Yesterday's volunteer service man has opportunities never offered
24:00
before. That's why alert, intelligent young men all over the country are entering
24:04
the Armed forces every day. The standards are high, and not everyone can
24:08
qualify. You must have the brains, the ability, and the character to
24:12
become a leader. But if you can qualify, go here nearest recruiting office
24:17
for full information. Here again is the amazing mister Malone. Well, there
24:36
was no use to I and Malone had done it again here I'd worked out
24:40
so neatly why Rusty Gates had to be the killer and Lieutenant Brooks had to
24:42
knock it out of my head. You think he had a grudge against me,
24:45
the way he kept ruining my theories. Actually, Brooks is crazy for
24:49
me. He just hides it so well. He even pools himself. You
24:52
know you have trouble, Malone. You get emotionally involved with the clients you
24:56
represent. Now, why can't you be like the other lawyers in town.
24:57
Why should I hear there names on the radio? Look, I thought you
25:00
were going to talk set. You wouldn't understand me if I did. I
25:03
listen Sidney, you're positive that Rusty was at that benefit. Absolutely? What
25:06
do you do? He let the band? What'd you think? How come
25:07
Jeff Lewis wasn't there? He wasn't feeling good, so they used the sub
25:11
When did the band go on at a quarter after two? I suppose Rusty
25:14
got off the stand for a while. Not a chance. Besides, he
25:17
never could make it to the hillcrest. That would take him at least forty
25:18
five minutes to cut across town. They must have worked it somehow. Now,
25:22
how could one man be in two places at the same time? Hey,
25:25
I asked you that you know something, Lieutenants, I got the solution.
25:29
Oh no, not a gain. I mean, won't you see the
25:32
answer? No? Well, can we get all our suspects together? What
25:33
do you mean Rada and Rusting? What about Claire? Oh of course we'll
25:37
need heart too. We don't want to play to a house it's only two
25:38
thirds full. We'll get on with it, Lieutenant, I'm ready to give
25:41
the down beats say, dodgeant dogeant missus Gates? Yeah, hel On,
25:55
you intend to keep it here? I get artist and prairie wise. My
25:59
husband's sicking medical attention and he's gotta cut on his hand. All right,
26:03
No, you're just trying to be brave. But her beds ready picked a
26:06
fine time to start worrying about it. Keep out of this, Claire.
26:10
She killed my husband and you asked me to keep off. You're really crazy.
26:15
You's crazy, ladies? What the police think? A blood? All
26:23
right? Let me go if I get behave I'm sorry, lieutenant. Is
26:36
it safe for me to come in? Oh, don't worry cuts. Let
26:38
the girls won't hurt you. I was thinking of Rusty. I forget it,
26:41
Malone, I had it coming. That's very charitable of you. The
26:44
idea alone. That's a very good question, reader. Fortunately I'm prepared with
26:47
an answer. We're trying to solve the murder of Jeff Lewis she did it.
26:51
That's what I thought for a while, Claire, but I had to
26:52
discard that theory. The truth of the matter is Jeff didn't mean enough to
26:56
her as far as reader was concerned. He was just another guy. I
26:59
love her, that's no way to talk to a man who just gave you
27:00
a clean bill of health. She didn't kill him? Who did? You're
27:04
leaving yourself wide open there, Claire? What yeah you did it? No,
27:11
No, that's not true. It is me too. I just don't
27:17
understand you women here. You claim you couldn't live without Jeff when I arranged
27:21
for you to join him. You complain, Well, I guess there's no
27:23
pleasing some people. I can't kiddle. I just can't kiddle. There's something
27:45
bothering you, little man? Yeah? Yeah, how you can have the
27:48
colossal nerve to sit there and eat the loss in this whole case. That's
27:52
gratitude for you, and after all the work I did, after all the
27:56
way cute? Or you think clutch your case against Claire? Don't you know?
27:57
Allout me and I have never gotten a convict. What do you eat
28:00
that gives you so much gold? I'm perfectly serious. Why any decent lawyer
28:03
could have gone into court and gotten an acquittal. All they would have had
28:06
to do is cast a reasonable doubt on your evidence. I ended that doubt
28:10
once and for all. I don't see how by taking care of all the
28:12
other suspects I proved Rusty couldn't have killed Jeff. You'll prove with a little
28:17
assistance from you, the unknown factor in the case was right. I knew
28:19
she wasn't Gilly. And how did you know that? Because when I went
28:23
up to see her this afternoon she convinced me Jeff meant nothing to her by
28:26
making a play for me. I no woman who's lost a great love would
28:30
have done that. Aren't you forgetting your charm? How what are you so
28:33
bitter about here? I demonstrate to the public of their police force is on
28:37
the job day and night, and despite all the propaganda of the contrary,
28:40
the cops are right once in a while. Jee, Thanks, And what
28:44
do I get out of it? Two women in the case and I wind
28:47
up in a night spot with you? Well, don't feel too badly,
28:49
counseler. I've got a feeling before this evening's over, you're gonna wind up
28:52
with something else. Yeah, why the chick? Good night? Lord.
29:11
You never hear the story of the boy who worked out a scheme that convert
29:15
common metals into precious ones. It paid off in reverse for two honces of
29:21
gold, he got one of lead. I'll tell you all about it next
29:23
week. So why not pick me up at my office at the same time
29:26
I've been waiting for you. Good nights. George Petrie was starred as John
29:37
J. Malone, with Larry Haynes as Lieutenant Brooks. Our program is written
29:41
by Eugene Wang and directed by Richard Lewis. The Amazing Mister Malone is based
29:47
on a famous character created by Craig Rice and produced by Bernard L. Schubert.
29:52
The events and characters in this story were entirely fictional, and any resemblance
29:56
to persons living or dead is entirely coincidental. It's the Silver Jubilee on NBC.
30:12
Straight from the pages of the Saturday Evening Post comes that famous Oriental detective
30:17
Mister Moto created by John P. Maark One. Mister Moto stars James Monks
30:21
in the title role. Sunday on NBC, Bred Collins speaking, the Amazing
30:26
Mister Malone has come to you from New York. Stay tuned for the man
30:30
called X next. O foremost NBC stations welcome back well a unusually sordid episode
30:48
of Mister Malone. I didn't have to say that I loved Larry Haynes in
30:53
this episode, as Brooks just did a great job on this in another case
31:00
in which Malone didn't quite get right from the beginning, and I guess that
31:06
was somewhat of the appeal of the show, as he wasn't always correct.
31:11
The police work always incorrect, but that sometimes they indeed got it right,
31:18
and Haines makes the perfect smart policeman. Foil now to listener comments and feedback.
31:26
Gerald Rights, thanks for continuing to provide, especially the Johnny Dowler series.
31:33
I enjoy many of the old time radio shows, but this is probably
31:37
this one is probably my favorite. Your comments are also always a pleasure to
31:41
hear and fill me in on a lot of details that I never heard before.
31:45
Keep up the good work well, thanks so much, Gerald, and
31:48
then receive this from I hope I'm pronouncing this name correctly. Fish. I
31:56
have Adam. I've listened to hundreds of hours of your shows and I love
32:00
them. I listen at home, I listen in the car, I listen
32:02
to work. I've gone through series and series. I live in Madagascar now
32:07
I travel frequently to Rome. I used to live in Palestine and Benin and
32:10
Haiti and Canada and Egypt and France and Senegal, and I have your shows
32:15
with me everywhere. Sometimes I have to download dozens at a time to sustain
32:20
me over long stretches of no Internet. I don't know what it is.
32:23
I'm in my thirties, but I can't good enough of that old radio don't
32:29
ever stop. Well, thanks so much for your support and your comments.
32:32
Definitely appreciated and glad to know that we're traveling with you on these globe trotting
32:39
journeys. And sometimes I do take a look at where a worldwide downloads come
32:45
from, and it's nice to be able to put a name with the number.
32:50
All right, well, that will do it for today. Join us
32:52
back here tomorrow. We'll bring you our Western Gun Smoke Detective special to have
33:00
