Cigar Box case. Ladies and gentlemen, we take you now behind the scenes
1:34
of the police headquarters in a great American city, where, under the cold,
1:38
glaring lights will pass before us the innocent, the vagrant, the thief,
1:42
the murderer. This is the lineup. Sit right here, missus Denny
2:12
next to me. Thank you, litten. No, don't be nervous.
2:17
The people on the other side of the screen, of the ones who are
2:20
supposed to be nervous, they can't see us on this side. Not a
2:23
thing that's for sure now. No one in the lineup can see you.
2:28
Maybe the man you've got is the one I saw running away from the hold
2:30
up. Hope. Yeah, you'll people out there on the other side of
2:37
the wire in the audience room, May I have your attention to one?
2:39
Thank you. Find name as Grab, Sergeant Matt Grab. I'll explain the
2:43
lineup for you. Each of the suspects you will see will be number.
2:46
I'll call up a number, the name a charge. If you have any
2:50
questions or identifications, please remember the number of a side of the prisoner as
2:53
I called his name at the end of the line when I asked for questions
2:58
or identification of the number. If you're sure or not too sure of the
3:02
suspect. Captain Hell, the officers and took your name will assist you.
3:06
They're seated among you. Please be prop with your questions or identifications. When
3:10
the prisoners leave here, and they are sent to the wash room and dressed
3:14
back into their jail phone. It makes it quite difficult to bring them back
3:16
after they leave here. The questions I asked these suspects, and maybe they're
3:21
got a natural tone of voice. It will not be too much attention to
3:23
their answers, as they often lie. Bring on the line. All right,

possible. Missus Denny. Alright, you sure, pretty sure? Nick?
6:40
Was rather late at night, wasn't it eleven pm? How did you happen
6:43
to be parked outside the drug store? I was parked across the street.
6:46
I had mailed a letter at the corner mailbox, and when I got home,
6:49
I remembered I'd forgotten to put a stamp on it. You had to
6:54
go out last night? Oh, you were waiting for the mailman to make
6:58
his pickup. Then I was waiting to see if I could get some letter
7:01
back to put a stamp on it. You saw this wiry little man go
7:04
into Harn's drug store, yes, Sergeant. Then I saw him come running
7:09
out, run down the street. Well, did he have anything in his
7:12
hand to carry anything? Anything into him? You mean a gun? Anything?
7:16
Well, I don't remember. I just remember him. It's light near
7:20
the store windows. And it was that little celling you had on the stage
7:24
today, the lineup as well, we call him. I'm almost sure it
7:27
with him. I made a point remembering him. Why Missus Denny, Missus
7:31
Denny. There have been descriptions of the cigar box banded in the papers.
7:35
Polly operates what he looks like. He must be careful not to let those
7:40
descriptions. No, no, no, no, no no. That was
7:44
the man I saw run out of the drug store. I'm not saying I
7:47
saw a gun at this the gu box, But I saw that man.
7:51
Did he have a cigar box under his arm? I didn't know this.
7:57
Yeah, I got the prisson are out here when you want him? Good,
8:00
Uncle, you can I go. I better go take that other door
8:05
on. Missus Denny, I'll show you missus Billy Jo. You would tell
8:09
him not to be any trouble and you've been a find goodbye. Well,
8:13
I I think she knows what she saw, all right. But the suspect
8:22
hasn't got a record. It's pretty cool, man. I'm going through their
8:24
motor supper entity files. Nothing paper bag robbers, Mutton, Jeff robbers,
8:28
put it in the hat robbers. But nobody who showed a cigar box at
8:33
the victim and told him to pull it up. Well, it's the same
8:35
general family. No cigar boxes, Regulan quiney, I hope this is our
8:43
guy, man, I wish he had a record. He's pretty cool.
8:46

10:13
Will you know that? Landlady of us? She's a case. She's a
10:18

10:33

10:35
I give you my girl's number. You call her, you ask her where
10:37
I was last night during the hold up at a deal. Check that man,
10:41

10:45

10:48
put a man from the bomb squad on it. Oh that's very good.
10:52
How long you lived here? Will I'm born and raised here. I went
10:56

11:00

11:03
Bunk with your girl around eleven last night? Yeah, jess Avon where
11:09

11:13
five part say I think our names will be in the papers. This is
11:18
only an interrogation. Well, we don't mind. The name is Willard Willard.
11:20
That's sort of an interesting name in it. There spike a story with
11:24
Willard willis This is just a routine questioning Nora news value at all. Well,
11:28
wait a minute, sure some paper can get something good out of that,
11:31
you know, you know, false alarm, you know, get the
11:33
public. You've been identified as the man who held up Horns drug store late
11:37
last night. Oh go, that's silly, that's silly by Horn himself.
11:41
No, then it's just silly. The robber was seeing to run out of
11:46
the store and around the corner. Did you see the car on the witness
11:48
who said there was a car? Now, wait a minute, would you
11:50
stick up a place with att a car in that neighborhood of man on foot
11:54
could disappear into the night better than a man who's driving. There has been
11:58
a car and the other cigar box stick ups? Yeah, what kind you
12:01
tell us, Sergeant Skin the kid, Lieutenant Guthrie, Yeah, uh huh,
12:16
thanks, Captain Waldo. Yeah, the Galen Ethical Pharmacy on Quincy Avenue
12:22
was held up five minutes ago by the cigar box Bandit. High prices are
12:39
more than justin Newson. They can wreck our economy and seriously injure every one
12:43
of it. Yet, with goods going into defense and with more money in
12:46
our pockets to spend, the cost of living won't stay down unless we do
12:52
something about it, all of it. We've got to work better by only
12:54
what we need, watch the prices we pay, keep from asking too much
12:58
for the goods or the work we sell. Inflation can be led if we
13:03
are all good neighbors. Tell you that guy's a fake. He's a dirty,
13:20
low down fake. Who's a fake? The bandit? What do you
13:22
mean a bandit? I'm an a bandit. I originated a scarboxide there,
13:26
I stuck up all those other drug stores. I've been clean enough and nobody
13:31
could lay a finger on me. So where's this? Where does this phony
13:33
come in? If this is a confession, we'd better get the stenographer.
13:35
I'm not confession anything. I'm telling you that this other guy is thickly a
13:39
phony. And I'll go before any guy I ever stuck up, and I
13:43
haven't identify me as the one and only genuine answer. Gonna stop Bennett?
13:46
And that's an offc Wow, what do we do? Ben Clin? You
13:52
show mister Willen back to us. Cell Come on, thanks, lit Tenant.
13:54
I'm low down, crust of that crumb that What do you think of
13:58
that? Some guy? He's a cia s Hey, what do you say?
14:01
Your name is? Well? Crank leo cycle? What's the full of
14:09
them? And to happen cases like this poem. Yeah, but missus Denny
14:16
identify them. Of course she could make a mistake, Yes, she couldn't
14:20
man durn them loose, Yes, Lieutenant, he took a shot at me,
14:37
all right. He hit me right here in chest, smashed my hearing
14:43
aid device. Lucky, I got a spare with always smashed it all a
14:46
bit. You were lucky, Doc. Where were you standing when the bandits
14:50
came in? When I was right here, I was counting up after a
14:52
hard day in the store, trying to concentrate on putting prescriptions and doing business
14:58
and listening, listening, listening all the time. It's relief to close up.
15:03
I turn off my hearing aid and count up. Oh my, one
15:07
of a relief silence, you know, I wouldn't like to have all my
15:11
hearing back. And then the bandit came in. I didn't hear him.
15:13
I saw him and opened the door. First thing I know, he's pushing
15:16
this little pistol into my chest and saying something. When that actually I held
15:20
up my hands. Well, gentlemen, he gets positively red in the face,
15:24
and I know he's screaming something at me, so I put down one
15:26
hand and I return to my coat to turn up my hearing aid. Oh,
15:31
he whirled around. He stops at the door with a nest. He's
15:33
look on his face and he fires once and then he runs out. What
15:37
kind of a gun was? It's very small gun? Twenty two? My
15:39
boy shoots the bid. He has a twenty two and twenty five we think
15:43
from the slug ballistics has it. It doesn't tell you again, and it's
15:46
a different gun from the last time. Maybe he's got a lot of gun.
15:48
Well, it's just a little girl. Luckily it was my heart of
15:52
the man look or even small wiry dark eyes. All he kept looking around
15:56
brown tweed coat brown, and I was pretty excited. That's our boy,
16:00
dirty cigar box. Never got to shove it at me, but he had
16:03
it under his arm. All right. That's him, Ben, that's our
16:07
boy. What does Captain Waldo want? Ben? Here's something now on the
16:23
cigar box man number thirty nine, Uh, incidental intelligence. Something stirring.
16:32
And I figure it's trouble because we haven't caught anybody. The Alumni Association wants
16:37
victories or the coach has got to go. Hello, Ben Man, hell
16:42
Bill, sit down, boys, Thanks, thanks Kevin. You know Gilbert
16:47
Frompson Druggist Corner seventy nine grand been there forty years. He's a very big
16:51
man in this business. He's demanding protection for druggist getting embarrassed. I know
16:56
the man eye for headlines, and I know he's got the eye on a
16:57
seat on the council, a nice little local issue of a cigar box bandit
17:02
chairman of the County Merchants Association, and he's jumping with indignation, Captain.
17:07
Isn't he the man who fleded Grant Avenue when I was left unpaved after some
17:10
cable installation and stock them a hole with fish, had small kids fishing in
17:14
the middle of the city. That's Thrompson. They find him a good one
17:17
for that, as I recall, and I also paved the street. I
17:19
think Thompson wants us to catch the cigar box bander. We can't put a
17:23
policeman in every back room in every drug store in town every night. Brompson
17:27
just wants us to catch the man, see if he can sue the favorite
17:30
brow. He's expecting your boys, So calm him down, will you,
17:52
mister Thrompson? All right, I don't see salesman on Wednesday. I'm Lieutenant
17:56
Guthrie. This is Sergeant Grim Police Sports Scattherne Walladles that I could expect you.
18:00
We'd like you to know and to pass on to your association that we're
18:03
putting forth every effort to catch the cigar box man. It's a shaming and
18:07
Aubrey gentleman shaming, a autraven assigning details share of the Country Merchants Association of
18:12
the eleven hundred active members, and we're up an armed about this shame and
18:17
we understand how you feel. Member. It's premation romany man. There are
18:21
lot of the citizens mind your citizen furious? What join? What if?
18:25
What's being done about it? I ask you what is being done about policeman
18:27
of being stationed alicement. We're putting every officer we can spare into the back
18:33
rooms of drug stores. Mister Fromson, I am a drug store. What
18:36
about my back room? Yes? For example, that's our assignment, mister
18:38
Thrompson, Joging Greb and I intend to spend every night this week in your
18:42
prescription room starting right now. Is that's all the brass? Well? I
18:45
am f there, Lieutenant. Now if you show us your back room and
18:49
the pepoles will go to work the day. Seven prescriptions tonight, hard night.
19:11
Now I know, I drug us go to college. I hope we
19:14
haven't been in your way back here, Oh, not a bit. I'm
19:17
grateful to you, gentlemen. But as the Feller said during the war,
19:22
defense won't win the war. You might wait until doomsday to get the cigar
19:26
box man and never catch him. He's got the initiative, and that's back
19:30
when he's new to us. We're learning his methods. We know a little
19:33
more. We hope to go on the offensive. I hope. So excuse
19:37
me, pharmson scripts and pharmacy. One minute we return and thanks. Then
19:48
I guess we're speaking. Yeah, yeah, well that was fast. Captain
19:56
Waldo, wanting to know what we're doing here when drug store in the next
20:00
corner has just been stuck up by the cigar box bandit. We are making
20:14
progress, Bill, in spite of our failure to lay our hands on cigar
20:18
box I and since that, we're making progress. MPI aren't you, Captain
20:21
and knee Chief of Police Villa. We've told you we had to wait and
20:25
watch and study. There's a very definite pattern emerging from this cigar box picture,
20:29
right Man, Well, yes, yes, there are some puzzling features
20:33
all right, like no agreement on the gun he uses. It's been a
20:36
revolver of twenty two woods Woodsman a twenty five in general Captain. The description
20:41
of the bandit Tally's. So there must be something funny about the gun.
20:45
Anhing funny man owns a small arsenal. How do we get him? That's
20:48
all the concerns us get him? Will We can't spare enough police to give
20:51
every drug store protection. He's he's smart enough to case any job he's gonna
20:55
pull, so he probably knows the stores that are being protected any given night.
20:57
Then stop wasting time and patrolman and plainclothes men back. I don't think
21:00
we're wasting them, Bill. We've learned several things about our men, and
21:03
he doesn't strike at random. And it's never open prescription rooms. It's always
21:08
drug stores with back room prescription departments. So it can hurt the helping back
21:12
out of side of the street. By covering certain areas, we've confined the
21:17
bandit to certain other areas. Now, if on some particular night we went
21:19
all out and really detail all areas, we might have a chance. I
21:23
need a lot of men for two or three nights. Say one hundred men
21:29
one night, twenty five men. Less than two nights is useless. I'll
21:33
settle for seventy five men. Were sixty men or one night two nights impossible,
21:41
fifty men two nights, thirty five top figure two nights one night useless?
21:48
All right, two nights, twenty five men, thirty men. That's
21:53
all thirty men plus Matten me including you in Matt, but up detailing the
21:59
story hasn't worked so far, it isn't going to work. It might now
22:02
we've got something worked out. Captain, the bandit knows which stores are garden.
22:06
We're going to help him know which stores these are. Be very open
22:10
about it in some cases, and as cagy as possible in others, within
22:12
the same small neighborhood, just so you get him before as iories do.
22:17
Thanks Bill, Let's go back right, Oh, Ben, thirty a man?
22:23
Thanks captain. What's that you're mixing up now? Picture of hyastin But
22:45
I shouldn't side trade and alixs reflactated pips. Now you know as much as
22:51
I do. How long does it take someone to learn to be a lady
22:55
pharmacist as long as it takes play to be a gentleman pharmacist for years,
23:00
By how long does it take for an entire police force to catch one fresh
23:04
little hold up man? Oh, we'll get him and see how its to
23:10
be an idiot to try to hold me up tonight? After the way you've
23:11
been showing yourself in stunt all evening, anybody can tell you're a cop.
23:17
Ah, I can tell. Don't answer that. You're not going to catch
23:23
anything back here? How maybe you're fright? And we had a protest boat
23:29
at our last meeting Billy's Pharmacy. One moment use huge and grave nice Hello,
23:38
how ben? Oh? Uh huh? Be right there? No,
24:00
No, I'm not nervous, lieutenants, not too nervous to cooperate, that
24:04
is. I don't think we're good now. Look, if that suspicious person
24:10
your customer set is watching the place is a man, we may see some
24:12
action. Well, just tell me what to do, all right? If
24:17
he comes in, you go out and wait on him. Be as natural
24:19
as possible. I see, I'll be in here. Sergeant grab will be
24:23
across the street watching, and he'll close in when it's time. The moment
24:27
I come out of the prescription room, you'll drop you understands at chenney drop
24:32
Just collapse on the floor and you'll be all right, Yeah, fine,
24:36
going on, Okay, good evening that. Hey what are you that for
24:45
a toothache? Got? It is this small cabaleer. Lord, it's just
24:49
a toothache. I don't know. I give you some lot of clothes,
24:52

songs for sale and hear it now. Joe Walters speaking that the CDs where
29:25
the Jack Smith, Dinah Shaw and Margaret Widing show has heard every weekday evening
29:29
the Columbia Podcasting System welcome back. Well, they've got a lot of this
29:48
slice of life stuff. That Dragnet did so so well down. I loved
29:55
him negotiating with his commanding officer, and I also love the U loudmouthed druggist
30:03
who would not actually listen, So I think good on that point. The
30:10
whole plot of the story reminded me of a nineteen sixties Dragant episode, though
30:19
in that case the perpetrators turned out not to be twins but just look likes.
30:26
But overall a pretty good as solidly put together episode. Well, we
30:30
do turn out a listener comments and feedback, and we got some positive comments
30:34
on our x one podcast that we did for a nine hundredth episode. Marjique
30:44
writes in, I listened to the X minus one episode last night and I
30:47
thoroughly enjoyed it. I was actually sad one is over, and now I'm
30:51
going to questify more. I've been listening to your podcast for a while now,
30:53
and I'm a big fan. My favorites are Johnny Dollar, loved the
30:56
itemized expenses in Sherlock Holmes, enjoy especially the friend ship between Holmes and Watson.
31:00
Keep up the great work app from Margik Canadian fan uh. And then
31:07
Val writes in, I just wanted to write to say how much I enjoyed
31:10
this episode. I love the mashup of UH sci fi and OTR detectives.
31:15
Well, thanks so much, Marjorie. We don't have a ton of those.
31:22
I think we have one other one, so I will save it for
31:26
another episode, for another time, you know, probably in another few hundred
31:32
episodes. But I definitely like the mix. It's like taking two of my
31:34
favorite things and mixing it together. Uh. Then we have this comment from
