- 1:26All right, well, now it's time to get into today's episode of
- 1:29the Adventures of Frank Race, and today's episode is called The Adventure of the
- 1:37Pharaoh's Staff. The Adventures of Frank Race starting Paul Dubove with Tony Barrett as
- 1:44Mark Donovan. The war changed many things. The base of the earth and
- 1:57the people on it. Before the war, Frank Race worked as an attorney,
- 2:00but he traded his law books for the cloak and Dagger of the oss
- 2:05and when it was over, his former life was over too. Adventure had
- 2:08become his business, the Adventures of Frank Race, and now we joined Frank
- 2:34Race for the Adventure of the Pharaoh's Staff. Dead men and the worldly possessions
- 2:46they leave behind are often the concern of an insurance investigator, but this case
- 2:50had one peculiar aspect. The dead man in question had been dead for centuries.
- 2:54Mark Donovan was so intrigued by it that he forgot his dislike for air
- 2:59travel. As we winged away from London to Lisbon, second leg on our
- 3:01flight from America to Cairo, Egypt. Hey, look, you'll mean to
- 3:06say they dug up another one of them, all Egyptian guys wrapped up in
- 3:08branagies. You'll put it rather crudely, Marcus, But that's it. So
- 3:12don't tell me that Brenda Clark Insurance Company is now going to pay off an
- 3:15insurance policy in a life of a guy which has been dead for a million
- 3:19years. No, Mark, I'm afraid Brenda Clark wasn't in business when Uncommon
- 3:23was roaming the face of the earth. Frat rat who Parat's uncommon? She
- 3:29was a king of Egypt, one of the pharaohs. It's his tomb that
- 3:31the archaeologists have just uncovered. All right, that's great. So what was
- 3:35he insured for? He wasn't insured. But Brenda Clarke has insured a few
- 3:38items who were dug up in the tomb, items of fabulous value if the
- 3:43estimates are correct, especially the staff of the pharaoh. Well, of course,
- 3:46but what's that? It's a staff made of solid gold and mounted with
- 3:50precious jewels. Takes a strong man to lift it, according to the appraisal
- 3:53reports. And that is the thing which Brenda Clark ensured to the tune of
- 3:58one million simoleans. It's in the Cairo Museum being created for shipping to London,
- 4:02and until it gets there, it's our job to stay right with it
- 4:06there. And to me, that sounds like a very dry job. So
- 4:11I am going to make the most of the present and sachate to the club
- 4:14lounge and quaff of fuel. Do you wish to accompany me? No,
- 4:17thank you. It will also be a sleepless job when we get there.
- 4:20I'll settle for the proverbial forty winks. Okay, be back in a while.
- 4:29I closed my eyes and relaxed, but I didn't sleep. From the
- 4:31seat behind us, I had been catching the subtle, an intoxicating scent of
- 4:35taboo. It grew stronger, and I opened my eyes to find that the
- 4:40whir of the scent had moved into the seat market vacated. Am I disturbing
- 4:44you? Isn't that your intention? Not that I might. I couldn't help
- 4:47over hearing part of your conversation about the staff of the Pharaoh. As you
- 4:51see, I'm an Egyptologist. She didn't look like an Egyptologist, a woman
- 4:58steeped in the history and lore of an ancient civilization buried beneath the centuries of
- 5:01sand. Even the drape of a conservative tweed skirt and jacket couldn't hide the
- 5:06charm she might lend to a French bathing suit. My name is Linda Marshall.
- 5:11You're on your way to meet my father, Charles Marshall. My yes,
- 5:14he's curator at the Kara Museum, a talent that I rate second to
- 5:17his ability to produce a very beautiful daughter. Your pardon if I don't acknowledge
- 5:23the compliment, mister Race, I just want you to promise me that you'll
- 5:27let nothing de lay you on this journey. I want the staff of the
- 5:29Pharaohs to pass into your hands before it cost my father's life. During the
- 5:41rest of the journey to Lisbon, I made several attempts to engage her in
- 5:44conversation, but she turned away, tight lipped and frightened. When we hit
- 5:47the landing strip at Lisbon, she was first out of the plane and I
- 5:50saw her speak to a man and a woman at the gate. They walked
- 5:54into the airport restaurant, and Mark and I followed our plan for Cairo,
- 5:58wasn't you for two hours? I don't know the dame really thinks her own.
- 6:03Man, it's gonna get knocked off. Wouldn't you think she talks?
- 6:05She might be afraid of sounding foolish. Now, what's foolish you about a
- 6:09guy getting killed? It depends on who or what she thinks is going to
- 6:12do the killing. There aren't many legends about curses and the tombs of the
- 6:15Pharaoh's. Quite a minute spoke stuff ghosts and such something like that, So
- 6:21why don't you tell me this before you dragged me away from Brooklyn. You
- 6:26know I don't like no ghosts, especially ones which can't speak English. They're
- 6:30terrible. Right. There's the Dame now at the corner table with her friends,
- 6:35and she is giving you the big way, yes, rather a sudden
- 6:40change her heart. I think she wants you should go out with her.
- 6:44M Well, go ahead, go ahead. I will amuse myself at Jacob's
- 6:47while you are making friends and influencing people Jacob's. Yeah, yeah, I
- 6:53get around though. This is a sort of Portuguese bond grill I discover when
- 6:57I am here during the war. See you later, get back in time
- 7:00for the plane, don't worry. Hello, Hello Race, I think you'll
- 7:08be interested in meeting these people, mister and missus David Horton, Mister Race,
- 7:12just call me Dave. Everybody does, and call me Eve. The
- 7:16name fit her Eve. There was something new and wild and awakening about her.
- 7:23Her mouth was like ripe fruit, and she had a way of making
- 7:26everything about her disappear. They all do it. I beg your pardon.
- 7:32All men stared at my one. Dave. Please, I'm blushing, I'm
- 7:36sorry, Please forgive me who don't blame you a bit, I do.
- 7:41You didn't stare at me. Race, You didn't give me a chance.
- 7:44Where did your friend go, mister Donovan? Isn't it yes, Mark Donovan.
- 7:48He has a fondness for a spot called Jacob's. Dave and Eva going
- 7:51to Cairo two, Race taking a look at the pyramids. No, same
- 7:55as you take you look at the staff of the pharaoh. Now, don't
- 7:58look at me like that. I haven't been tattling, Dave. Finance the
- 8:01expedition. The staff really belongs to him. I'm turning it over to a
- 8:05museum, of course. My contribution to culture, oh bather, culture and
- 8:11the pharaohs and the pyramids. I want to walk. Care to join me?
- 8:15Race? May I call your race? I like it you may,
- 8:18and I would definitely care to join you. Then go ahead. Oh,
- 8:22give Linda and I chance at all. You'll have to excuse me for a
- 8:24moment, Dave, I have a telephone call to make greetings to a friend
- 8:28of father's at the Lisbon Museum. Run along, all of you. I'll
- 8:31have a drink. Eve Horton and I walk down the path to the far
- 8:37end of the field and watch the ships come in for landings. She held
- 8:41tight to my arm. Then suddenly, when there was nobody around, she
- 8:43swung about facing me, not holding my arms, but in them grace.
- 8:46You'll be with a swan Shu. Promise you're trembling. What's wrong? My
- 8:52husband? He frightens me and the staff. There's a curse on it.
- 8:56Promise it's part of my job. I promise, not that way. Promise
- 9:03me, Promise me. She pressed that mouth to mine, and I was
- 9:07ready to promise anything. When we broke it up, I wasn't happy.
- 9:11I thought of her husband, when his life must be like married to a
- 9:15woman like this. You're angry with me? No, I was just thinking,
- 9:22I won't do that again. Unyess you want me to. Let's walk
- 9:28some more. We walked around the fields three times, the better part of
- 9:33maur Then we came back into the restaurant race. We've been looking all over
- 9:39for you. We were just walking to go for you from tacos. Your
- 9:43friend has been hurt. Don't go, I've got to Oh what's wrong?
- 9:58Oh? Why side they said you were hurt? H Oh, No,
- 10:03there are no plane. You're all a chart on his bruis. Let me
- 10:07taste that Scott drugged it's drugged. Come on, Marcus, I'm getting you
- 10:13out of here. Somebody doesn't want to sound that plane to Cairo. Whoever
- 10:22didn't want to sound that plane got his wish. It was taking off when
- 10:24we reached the field, and I watched it until it was airborne. I
- 10:26made a quick check of all schedules on all continental airlines. By taking the
- 10:31plane from Lisbon to Rome and picking up an Italian flight to Cairo, we
- 10:33could pull in only five hours behind the plane we had missed. We did,
- 10:37but it was too late. I knew it as soon as we reached
- 10:39the Cairo Museum and walked into the curator's office. I knew it. I
- 10:48knew it would happen there. Go ahead and Grace, A fine time for
- 10:54you to turn up. What's happened? The suff of the Faders is gone
- 10:56and Linda's father has been murdered. When did it happen? A couple of
- 11:01hours ago? If only we had arrived sooner, it would have made no
- 11:03difference. It was fated. Who are you I am, Hassim? I
- 11:09am a student. I was assistant to the curator, assistant and probably assassin
- 11:13too. Don't be so liberal with your opinions. Dave, it's right.
- 11:16You've no right to be making such accusations. I am connected with the royal
- 11:20families of Egypt, Sir, I do not like thieves plundering the graves of
- 11:26my ancestors. Don't you call me a thief. You'll be a full day
- 11:30him. Please leave, I'll taught you later. I go because you ask.
- 11:33I will help you find the truth. But remember, mister David Horton,
- 11:37I do not leave through fear. We shall meet again when you wish.
- 11:54Hello, Race, Hello, who sit down? Sit down? Glad
- 11:56you could join us, But you know where's Linda trying to get control.
- 12:00She'll join us in a little while, I say, find out anything from
- 12:03the police. No trace of anything yet, the staff is still around.
- 12:07A thing like that isn't concealed easily, and it would be too risky to
- 12:11move it for a while. Oh there's Tibbet now you I'll get him.
- 12:15Excuse me for a moment, please, I say, Race, he's a
- 12:18great guy. You love meeting him. Tibo Blue Tibet an archaeologist. He
- 12:22was in charge of the excavating day. Were old friends. I see what
- 12:26you mean. Don't make a seat. Old friends eh, Hello, Hello,
- 12:31Loul Tibbet Frank Race, how are you? How do you do it?
- 12:35Comes Linda? How are you? Honey? I'm better peace. I
- 12:39understand that you were in charge of excavation at Karat's tomb. Tibbets, here's
- 12:43I'd like to see the spot whereas it near the pyramids, about nine miles
- 12:46out in the desert. Can we drive out? Sure? Morning? All
- 12:50right? Why not tonight at night? You wouldn't be able to see anything?
- 12:54Yestly will Most of the digging is done at night when the sunny down
- 12:56power generator for light and cooler. You know, yes, it would be
- 13:01Dave at the dinner Timid if you like. Well, just like chasing Rammell
- 13:16again at cheap in the desert. The excavation is right over the next,
- 13:20done by the lights. We walk to the excavation and down uncovered steps into
- 13:26the catacombs of the tomb. Arab workmen were digging carefully and others were carrying
- 13:31the dirt out in baskets. This was the main tomb chamber. I don't
- 13:37expect we'll find much on the others they're digging out. Now, what's through
- 13:41this passage? The minor chambers. We've already excavated. You want to look
- 13:45through them? Yes, here, take these flashlights. We've pulled the lighting
- 13:48equipment out of there. Hat follows. Look, I think I'm going to
- 13:52go back and wait under the stars. I like stars. This grave stuff
- 13:56is definitely not for me to place my cave in it's well being. Mark'll
- 14:01take an explosion to give it in. I explore easy. I'll see you
- 14:03laid upstairs by wait here, Race, I'll lead him back to the main
- 14:07chamber. All right, I'll be right here. Welcome to the tombs at
- 14:11my ancestors. Mister Race. Who is it Turn your light this way,
- 14:16Hussin, Yes, mister Race, and you were right. The tombs are
- 14:20suddenly being It would take an explosion. What do you intend to do,
- 14:26Hussin? What do you intend to do, mister Race. We'll return to
- 14:41the adventures of Frank Race in just about one minute, and I'll act to
- 15:00the adventures are Frank Wright doesn't choked me. And I was buried under what
- 15:11seemed to be tons of earth, and I dug my way out, got
- 15:13to my feet in the darkness. I lost my flashlight. Here it was
- 15:18silent, black and oppressive. And I heard a sound in the tomb.
- 15:22Hussim, where are you. I'm trying to find you, fellow. Oh
- 15:30here, take it easy, I'll dig you free. I injured badly.
- 15:35I do not think so good. This beam is pinning you down. I'll
- 15:41raise it. You try to slip out ready, yes, no, I
- 15:48am free. Now you rest a little, Hussim. Then we'll try to
- 15:56get out of here. We cannot dig out, mister Race, not before
- 16:00the air is gone for you. I am sorry for myself. I do
- 16:06not care. There are diggers outside. They'll get to us if somebody wishes
- 16:10them to do so. But I am afraid the order will not be given.
- 16:15Relax and do not think it is an honor to make this step into
- 16:19eternity in the company of the pharaohs. He was right, and I knew
- 16:26us exertion would only use up the air faster. It was little enough.
- 16:32I kept track of the time at the luminous dial on my wrist watch.
- 16:34Two hours past three five. The heaq was stifling. I felt weak,
- 16:42dizzy. Hussim, listen, they're digging you dream Husim, Ussim, fass
- 17:07all right, all right, what another cloth here? Give me? Come
- 17:11on, come, on race, Come on, come one tickets dad,
- 17:15a boy, you didn't come on? Here you go? Where's Hussim?
- 17:18A local constable? Coming? Hollo more if we even kim too? You're
- 17:22right, yeah, he kind of a bomb in a place. He didn't
- 17:25do it. He was in front of me and the explosion came from behind
- 17:27me, blocking the exit. Hello, he alright, darling. I'm so
- 17:33glad. You're all right? Yeah, yeah, yeah, fine, fine,
- 17:36big glad. But don't smote him right now. Smotted a guy for
- 17:38good time. I'm sorry. I didn't think. Where's Timid? He's the
- 17:42guy which went back into town to call a cop so they could take Hassim
- 17:45away. He did that before we were dug out. Yeah, I was
- 17:48still busy digging to notice, and he knew Hussy was in there. We've
- 17:52got to get back in the town mark Race. You mustn't exert yourself,
- 17:56Yes, baby, I must, because it was an official police who picked
- 17:59us him up. We'll be lucky if we find him alive. My hunch
- 18:11was only too right. Hasim was not in the Cairo jail and Tibbot having
- 18:14placed a call there, I sent Mark on a hopeless search of the city.
- 18:18Then I located Linda Marshall and Dave Horton in the bar at the hotel
- 18:22Race. Good to see you, old man. You've told us what happened.
- 18:26Anybody tell you how it happened? Yes, Cass him blew up the
- 18:29passage wrong, Tibbot blew up the passage? Good? Why would he do
- 18:32a thing like that because he had no intention of letting the staff of the
- 18:34Pharaohs get to London. And I've got a sneaking suspicion he isn't the only
- 18:38one. Are you implying that I'm involved in this? What makes you ask
- 18:41that? Are you calling me a kief? Keep your voice down and your
- 18:45hands. That's only a sample. I don't like scenes. He's a strangely
- 18:52sensitive man. Good night. Oh wait for me, Race, I'm going
- 18:56with you. She followed me into the lobby, and just as we rounded
- 19:03a bunch of polot plants, the revolving door at the entrance turned and Eve
- 19:06Horton stepped in. But this was one time on the side of her didn't
- 19:08blot out everything else. Pulling away from the curb was the car she had
- 19:11stepped out of. Behind the wheel was lowt Tibot. I mean a dash
- 19:15from the door. But as I brushed past eve Hoorton, I stumbled the
- 19:17sturdier plants and managed to avoid falling. But it was all the time Tibot
- 19:21needed. He was gone, Oh, Race, I tripped you. I'm
- 19:26sorry. She did it deliberately. That's not important. Timbot was in that.
- 19:30Can you let him get away? Why? Because he hasn't done anything.
- 19:33I believe that when I see Hassim alive, is alive? Tibbot faked
- 19:36that. Please call so we could get Hassim away from the tomb without interference.
- 19:40Hassim belongs to a student route that isn't too popular with the natives.
- 19:44The explosion was an accident. Why didn't Tibot come and tell me about it
- 19:47himself? And what makes your husband so sensitive about the word thief races?
- 19:55I've got it, hit it down here, I'll get some help. Never
- 19:59mind, she'll come to in a minute. If she isn't all right this
- 20:03minute, what do you mean? Or maybe she's fainted, maybe she's faking.
- 20:07In any case, I'm going to do a little checking on her husband.
- 20:17I went to the nearest cable office, shout a few inquiries to key
- 20:19men in London and waited for the answers to come back. When they came,
- 20:23they cleared away part of my mental sandstorm. Dave Horton was in tight
- 20:29quarters financially. He'd been speculating in money exchanges, especially the British pounds sterling,
- 20:33and the evaluation had knocked the props out from under him. I went
- 20:37back to my room to think it over. Grace huss him. He'd been
- 20:42beaten, horribly beaten. I knew immediately that I was looking at a man
- 20:47who was dying. There was nothing I could do for I said, I
- 20:52would help you find the truth. Who did it? Huss him? I
- 20:59did, telled him, why I see race? Holy oh, I better
- 21:08go, no Omark, he's dead, Get a car fast? What we
- 21:11go? After the staff of the Pharaohs. It's back in the tomb of
- 21:15King Farat Uncommon almost there, it's just over this's doing. Look it has
- 21:26him tell you the thing was here when he passed out. I have a
- 21:30hunch that's what he tried to tell me as he died. Hey, other
- 21:34guys here, does no one belong to Dave Warden? Yes, the other
- 21:38belongs to lou Timid. Nobody's working the shift must have been called on.
- 21:41Wait a minute, somebody's working. I come in between those two crys.
- 21:47I think that's the Muggle. Slip me that, Mickey and Jacobs. What
- 21:48are your guys one here? We're just tourists. Don't stop touring. Go
- 21:53on a handsake, mark your pride, lad Mark Chick, get his gun
- 22:02and time off of the police. Then follow me in hurry The cars made
- 22:06it as since that my hunch was paying off. I went into the tomb
- 22:08that the lights were off. I groped a bottle of dark until a flashlight
- 22:11blared. I pulled tight into an alcove in the war and waited, let
- 22:19me take an easy day. Pray now that your lights are a friend,
- 22:26I'll borrow that flash. I groped again, keeping the light off until I
- 22:30might need it. I took a turn off the main chamber and stumbled over
- 22:34Something cut the light and flashed it. It was the body of lout Tibbot.
- 22:40Something had crushed in the back of his skull. He was dead.
- 22:45The rest of the chambers were empty, but I finally found but I wanted
- 22:49the narrow opening through which Hussim and I had been pulled from the cabin I
- 22:53slipped through quietly. There was a faint light from the small room at the
- 22:57turn off. Somebody was digging. I came in behind the sound. All
- 23:03right, Linda, O punder, didn't you? I was just digging it
- 23:10out. I'm glad you're here to take possession. Race. Now the trouble
- 23:12is all over. Not quite, baby, there's a bill to be collected
- 23:15for a couple of murders. I hope Eve isn't mixed up in this.
- 23:21I like her. Sometimes murders are committed by very lovable people. We'll see
- 23:26as soon as we get this staff back to the Carro Museum. All right,
- 23:38mark at the staff of the pharaohs on that table. This time,
- 23:42we'll stay with it. Okay, it's the littest thing was heavy. It
- 23:48wasn't lying. Hey, look what'd you Mike, Lindon Dave going in the
- 23:52next room for. Because I had the police bring Eve into I'm going to
- 23:56put a jigsaw puzzle together. You can listen from behind the but make sure
- 24:00nobody gets through here. If one of them try to crash out, they
- 24:03will run into a mighty left hook, I assure you, good boy.
- 24:07Marcus said, tight, Race, what's the meeting of bringing Eve here and
- 24:12having off the take. Take it easy, Dave, Thank you, Linda.
- 24:15The reasons are obvious. Somebody in this room as a murderer and a
- 24:21thief. No, I told you never to use that word. Sit down,
- 24:23Dave. Why were you angry with Tibbott when you went to get him
- 24:27that night at dinner, just a few seconds after you told me what a
- 24:30great guy he was, because he said I shouldn't be upset about the theft
- 24:33of the staff. He said I could cash in on the insurance. You
- 24:37could use a million dollars day if you're broke from speculation. I checked.
- 24:41I said I'd give the stuff to a museum, and I meant it.
- 24:42I don't get my money that way. Then why does the word thief bother
- 24:47you so much? Stop it? I'll tell you why. Race. My
- 24:56father was a wealthy man. Then he went broke in the market crash in
- 25:02nineteen twenty nine. He was used to living well, so he got a
- 25:07job and embezzled. He died in prison. Race, I'll kill you for
- 25:14this. I'm sorry, but it's necessary. Go on, Eve. Oh,
- 25:18I've seen my husband with misfortune and I was afraid, afraid, of
- 25:22what he might do. I wanted you around, Race to prevent it.
- 25:27That's why I kissed you. You want to take an easy day and try
- 25:33to understand it. I think I do. It was because I was on
- 25:37the right side of the law, Wasn't it the safe side? That's all
- 25:41you want the safety of being honest? Yes? I love my husband truly,
- 25:47Dave. I do love you. Tell me you didn't do it,
- 25:51sir. There you poor a frightened girl. Of course I didn't, now,
- 25:55Race, Perhaps you understand why the word made me so sensitive. I
- 26:00do, and I apologize to both of you humbly. Wait a minute,
- 26:04Race, don't tell me you're falling for this cornball act. Yes, Linda,
- 26:08because they're telling the truth. Who you Baby? But I found the
- 26:12staff and helped you out. You helped me because I was blocking your exit
- 26:15and your new was all over. Your outside boy killed your partner Tibbott,
- 26:18and you knew that the thug was knocked out to her. I couldn't have
- 26:22gotten in the curator was my father, Race, Remember, I wouldn't have
- 26:26killed him. I doubted, Baby. He wasn't your father, and you're
- 26:29not an Egyptologist. If you were, you'd never have said we wouldn't be
- 26:32able to see anything at the tombs at night. You'd have known that most
- 26:34of the digging was done at night under generated light to escape the heat of
- 26:37the desert sun. Very clever, Race, But have you got an answer
- 26:41for this? A gun? How charming? I'm going up back out of
- 26:45here. Don't follow me. The police are outside, Marcus. Take her
- 26:53to the easy wild, Chad. I will do that with pleasure. You're
- 26:59a something these dames. Dames always beef when and crying about something. The
- 27:22Adventures of Frank Race, starring Paul Dubove with Tony Barrett as Mark Donovan,
- 27:26comes to you from Hollywood. Others heard into night's cast were Elizabeth Root,
- 27:30Rosemary Carver, Gunner Peterson, Byron Kane, and Jane o'vello. This series
- 27:37is written and directed by Buckley Angel and Joel Murkin. The music is composed
- 27:41and played by Ivan Ditparnes. Be sure to be with us again this time
- 27:45next week for another dramatic chapter in the Adventures of Frank Race. Art Gilmore
- 27:49speaking. This is a Brucel's production. Welcome back. I have to admit
- 28:33I am getting a little disappointed in some of these later episodes. This is
- 28:38a series I didn't listen to all of the episodes in before playing for you,
- 28:44and it seems towards the end that they are, you know, really
- 28:48just reusing the same things over and over again. And this episode's kind of
- 28:52a case in point. We have a case that is solved by Frank Race
- 28:59discovering the said something that was off for the profession they were claiming, and
- 29:03then Mark Donovan disarmed the escaping killer. I also have to admit that I
- 29:08am really not sure I buy that hole. I have to fly into a
- 29:14rage whenever someone says the word thief. I guess that great old time radio
- 29:21star Groucho Marx might have called that the secret ord. That was a bet
- 29:25of a stretch. All right, Well, we're going to see some changes
- 29:29to our lineup here starting on next week. The Adventures of Frank Race will
- 29:38be moving from Monday's to Tuesdays, So Adventures of Frank Race will be coming
- 29:47on Tuesdays. Next week. We're going to finish up Let George Do It.
- 29:52And it basically just happens that we have one more episode of Let George
- 29:56Do It than we do the pre Bob Bailey Johnny dollars, and so in
- 30:02order to clear that up, next Monday, we'll be bringing you an adventure
- 30:06and let George do an Adventure with Bob Bailey. And it looks like,
- 30:12based on the outcome of our listener support campaign, we will be doing four
- 30:22days a week which will simply be brought to you by the support of our
- 30:26listeners, and then two days a week where we will have an ad us.
- 30:30It'll either be for one of the ebooks audiobooks we have out or it'll
- 30:34be an affiliate aut All right, well, that will actually do it for
- 30:38today. We will be back tomorrow with the cases of Mister Race. Join
- 30:44us next Tuesday for another episode of Frank Race, and be here next Monday
- 30:51for Let George do It. In the meanwhile, send your comments to Box
