you know that if you want more Thanksgiving old time radio, we've got you
covered. On Monday, we're going to have some Thanksgiving appetizers on the Old
Time Radio snack Wagon at snackwagon dot net. And then on Wednesday a special
Thanksgiving trait you want to be sure and listen to at Amazing dot Great Detectives
dot net. And if you want to hear our past Thanksgiving programs, you
can find all of those over on the YouTube channel. It's the featured playlist.
Now it's YouTube dot Great Detectives dot net. Now let's go ahead and
get into our Thanksgiving special. This is another one where we have played this
program on the podcast, but it was many years ago. I think it
was season two or three. And we have a much better sound quality version
of that episode. And while we will probably be doing replays future seasons,
I did want a better version of this episode before we bet off that rotation.
So now let's go ahead and take a listen to an episode of Let
George Do It. The original air date November the twentieth, nineteen fifty and
the title is Cause for Thanksgiving. Personal notice stanges my stock in trade.
The job's too tough for you to handle. You've got a job for me,
George Valentine right full details. Standard Oil Company of California, on behalf
of independent Chevron Gas Stations and Standard Stations throughout the West, invites you to
let George do It Cause for Thanksgiving. Another adventure of George Valentine. Hello,
yere, mister Valentine, what hello? Quiet? I'm ten years old,
Haley? Is that you? Well, it's not Tom Turkey. Listen,
my friend, I'm sure it's not. What's that ten year old stuff?
You've been jumping the gun on the cranberry sauce? All right, all
right, all right, I'll say it straight. I'm phoning on behalf of
a little boy ten years old. No, it's not, it's worse,
said, little boy could no more write you or letter than he could hope
the joke. I doubt if he can write? What's he can't talk either?
Huh? You hurt me? I said he can't talk? Oh,
I don't mean there's anything wrong with him, Or maybe there is. I
don't know. But look, Valentine, get over here, will you right
away? To my house? Well? Sure, but I want your friend.
This little boy never heard of Thanksgiving. If you're gonna help him,
you'd better bring your breast knuckles. Oh, missus Riley's got him in there
trying to coax them deweek. But the only time he will take a bite
is when she's turned it back. Oh is he? Where'd you get him?
One of the boys in my department picked him up early this morning at
three am on the waterfront of the warehouse, laying. Oh see a little
on the tough side. Oh, they all are down there, like a
bunch of dirty seagulls and scavengers running loose. We can't even find out who
he belongs to. Maybe nobody. Only ten years old. Listen this sergeant
of mine and a squad car and then he runs him down. See the
kid was racing across the empty street, not even looking well. Mike gets
out to help. Naturally, the kid wasn't hurt, but he swung on
him. He trying to get away, scared to death and got and scratched.
And then Mike realized the kid wasn't talking, not a sound. That's
the part I don't care clear it of were you wrong? Well, Mike
couldn't even find out where he lives, so he brought him in. My
friends, that boy hasn't spoken one single solitary word since, hardly a noise
out of him. Oh, except maybe to cry a little, only he
stops that when you look at him. But utility's probably a mute. Uh.
Two doctors were out from juvenile hall to look at him. One of
them said, the kid's faking, but they both agreed there's nothing wrong with
his vocal cords. And what's the other doctor saying? Psychic shock? Oh
you mean he can't talk because of something that happened to him. They're not
sure, they say, it'll take time to be sure. I've arranged for
the hall and take him over to try to find his family if there is
one, to feed him. But that takes time, like you say,
days. Wow, now you get a pal. And the doc says it'll
help him a lot better if we could work fast, because the most likely
thing is that last night he saw something. What's mixed up and something that
scared the blue blazers out of him, and he was running away a little
before three am last night. I saw something. Yeah, but what Nothing
happened down there, Nothing was reported. My department can't just go bursting into
him. Eh, well, hello there, selly, Hello, you finally
ate something, did you? He dies, He listens, but he doesn't
listen. Yeah, come on in here, son, Come on, he's
a friends of mine. See ah, Now wait him and don't jump like
that. I'm not going to bite you. Come on in. Hear of
it? Really? What time is it? Eh? One forty five Church?
Hey, look kid, how about coming with me. I've got an
extra ticket to the big football game. Well, get you to meet Big
Mike marre Levski, the All American. Maybe you can even sit on the
bench with a team. He's just more fright and he's crying. You see,
you can't get him interested in anything but a boy in a football game.
I think the doctor's oh it's Thanksgiving, I mean a kid belongs in
somebody's home on Thanksgiving? Well, are you going to just sit there?
Valentine? I know, softy, I know we've got work to do in
fast. Come on, Brooks, you take the kid's hand. We're gonna
go straight at this. At the waterfront warehouse lane, great place, honey,
afraiders tied up, but no people ship chandlers. He must have spent
some time around there, haven't you a kid? How about the candy store?
Wasting your time? George just seems to get more and more tense.
This is where he was picked up right here, I'll relaxed, Honey,
don't just sit there and look right to left. So he must have come
from this way. Okay, let's move on. A little cobblestones by the
empty warehouse. Huh, George, look at it, it's this direction,
right, George, look out for that boy in the street, a street,
your lovely neighborhood. I wonder if that boy would know anything about our
friend here. Hey you shorty, Oh you want you bought it yet?
You know me? Hey, hey shorty, shutty? Wait George, George,
come here, I'm having an awful time hole. Oh look, kid,
kid, stop it? Will you run? To George. Yeah,
no, easy, that's better. Yeah, he'll get away from us if
I try to catch up with that's shorty. Look Brooks, he look,
there's a I don't on house over there at Murphy's. You know him.
Take the kid over there and wait for me, will you sure, George?
Maybe they don't know something about it. I got at three am last
night, the father out there in the periods where it happened, whatever it
was, So me, I'm gonna take it on foot by myself. Look
out, all right, sure, I got you this, gotcha, polot
out, get you cut it out. I just want to ask you something.
You know that other kid I had back in the car there, you
know his name? I've never seen him before. I've done nothing. What's
your name? I don't know? Like God, you kids running loose out
here by the ships last night? How was up by the moon eating cheese?
Honey? Go brother? Great tribe, bunches stick together. Never tell
anybody anything going out a little kid. I'm not a copper or anything.
I just want to find the I got one there, don't I know?
You don't, Shorty? I got you here, we are hold him.
Let me go through his pockets Hey, hey, wait a minute this skip,
What are you talking of? Cigars? Left him out on deck,
stolen, stolen, shining store, He hasn't got anything. Still big anyway,
you're not going on? And what go on? Shorty? Get out
of here? You know help, I tell you, j water rats,
same the world all over all the same. Good cigars to worst mate,
Give him to me, so I let him stay up town. Wait a
minute, skip the wait a minute. Were you looking for another kid?
No? Uh? Yes, something stolen last night? You made during the
night? Cigars, no rules half known a few minutes ago. Come up
right, like rat soap on the horses. I tell you it's awful,
Marseille. It was my last part. Same thing. Save the world over.
Nobody stops from over the can stop them. Hey, wait a minute
a minute, skipper, this is your ship tied up here, leaky old
tub full of potatoes frenchman like potatoes, looks about ready to sail. Were
you here last night? H what do you peddley dope punchboards cheaply? God
all listen, will you you have trouble with kids getting aboard? Huh?
Characters like you and ever report too, Doc loafers always kind of deal.
Sure, I have trouble. That's the customs peer watchmen. Nobody can stop
them. You see those big rat gods right over them like monkeys. Did
some kids get aboard your ship last night? No? No, I stopped
pestering. Are you sure? Around three am? Fight was on the pier,
not the ship. What fight? Oh that's the peer watchman. He's
the one spreading the story. A couple of bombers. I guess I don't
know. My old deck watch was sound asleep. Of course you didn't see
it. No, yeah, I don't know. Whoop me up? I
hel up out of my port hole, went back to sleep. The escape
away. I'm so glad to catch you. Oh now a sailor comes ashore.
I'm just going to take a minute. It's about a woman you see.
Oh that I see and so nicey. But right now I want to
put my main doc. Loafers all trying to sell something. Now it's telephone.
It's gone ball to get out of here. Wait a minute, I've
seen this guy before. Yeah, well it's not mutual skip if you're just
listening, named Salvory out Yeah, I've seen him in the lineups. Are
you around here last night? I beg you pardon. Oh it's a great
neighborhood. Salvory the big operator. Last trip he was here selling raffle tickets
for a three wheel automobile. Well thanks and good night, you pressed to
him. I'm going backwards. Yeah, hey, look at that. What
do you now? What you want to see us about Salfory? That crowd
down at the pier? No, no, no, I got come on,
let's take a look after friends. What's going on? Huh? Don't
suppose you have fifty cents? You so see? Yeah? No, Pela
mine, See he's gonna buy me Thanksgiving Toddy? You see you mind that?
What are those men doing down with the water fishing? Son? Fifty
cents is about all would take though, you see now this old Pela mine,
he would have spent five bucks, you know, men's pie and the
watch you know said the last knife? Hey, hey down there, awesome
buster did you say last night? Yeah? What are you know? Yeah?
Sure? Now yeah, now it seems to me that hell about that?
Wow, he left in a hurry, didn't he? Body? Skipper
got a body? What just fishing him off? Guyot with a knife in
him? Guy, yeah, with a knife. Oh you see That's what
I tell you. You see a pelamine. He was gonna buy me a
Thanksgiving dinner, see only instead it looks like he got in a fight about
three am last night. I figured he got might a seen. So tell
me, how's about the pitch stents. We'll return to tonight's adventure of George
Valentine in just a moment. When you RPM, motor oil was developed in
the laboratory. It was subjected to the most rigidly controlled tests that modern research
could devise, and it proved tops the oil that doubles engine life between major
overhauls due to lubrication. The next question was would it live up to these
tests? In your car? Tonight you'll hear the answer from the crews of
two actual test cars in the heart of downtown San Francisco. Following is a
special transcription made during the road test period. We sweat you to Test unit
number one and research supervisor Carl Watson in San Francisco. We can rather slow
progress heading west along Market Street. Test Unit number two is behind us.
In the traffic we're driving under the same kind of stop and go conditions that
you do. The toughest kind on engine ware. It's our job to see
if New RPM will back up our laboratory findings. I'll switch you now to
research engineer Bob Burchell in Unit number two. He'll tell you about these special
cars and the data we are recording from the instruments. Go ahead, Bob,
this is Bob Burchill. The engines in this test car and test unit
number one ahead of us are both equipped with irradiated piston rings, just like
those in our laboratory test engine. They also have Geiger counters attached so that
we can hear and record where as it actually takes place. We are making
a comparison. Test Test Unit one is using new RP, but in this
car we have a well known conventional oil in the crankcase. It is one
of the best premium type oils. Naturally, I can't review its brand name.
Now, I'll hold the microphone closer to the gyre counter, which detects
minute particles of metal as they wear off the irradiated pistoning. Hear that rapid
clicking. That means a comparatively high rate of engine were Now I'll switch you
back to Carl Watson for a comparison with New RPM motor oil. Come here,
Number one, Miss Watson again, Do you hear that slow click of
the Geiger counter? That is an outstanding low wear rate count. It's new
RPM on the same condition type oil you heard about a moment ago, Day
in and day out, mile after mile, the counters have clicked off the
same story. Results. We've got an a laboratory kiss on new RPM motor
oil are checking out on the road, proved in the laboratory, supported in
severe road service. That's new RPM motor oil, the oil that cuts in
half the wear rate of critical engine parts, doubles engine life between major overhauls
due to lubrication. Try it sold with a money back guarantee of satisfaction at
independent Chevron gas stations and standard stations where they say and mean we take better
care of your car. Now back to tonight's adventure of George Valentine, a
boy ten years old who's been scared to death, who either can't or won't
talk well. If your name is George Valentine, you begin to understand the
reason when you see the neighborhood in which he was picked up by the police.
You understand a good deal more when you see that the body of a
man has been fished out of the water off the pier. Yes, now,
it's certainly a case for Lieutenant Riley. Oh but what a case.
They don't get solved around here, my friend, they just happened. Okay,
really did your boys pick up that bomb? The guy who sniffed?
Oh, he won't know anything. Nobody does. The name of the corpse
is Lefty Sims. Well, you seem to know something. Well, everybody
knew him. He's a common thief, that's all. Few big jobs,
but nothing to steal down. He usually worked the city. This wasn't his
territory, it, Doc says the Times about r I'd been dead since last
night, around three or four may be killed and then tossed in the water.
What about the peer watch one? He must heat covers five warehouses.
How could he see anything? And everybody off duty for the holly? Okay,
Riley, what's this stuff where the fight happened. It's a spot of
blood, I figured on closer, powdering little pieces of broken glass. What
hey, here's some more of it? Yeah, doctor, yeah, yeah,
doctor over here, we do you thinking? What I am? Riley?
Yeah? Hey, here, take a look white powder and Donna pier.
We're both no it's not talking about dope, aren't you. Yeah,
I don't think so faults alone, doctor, I might explain why there was
a fight. What was going on out here? Something of value? Yes,
yes, of course smuggling you think, uh, peddling, Yes,
I'll do the thinking doctor, still mess and perhaps something like that. Now
I can run a tesk a valuable. Didn't I say that drug? Drug
is some kind cure people instead of making them sick, worth a lot more
than dope. Too easier to market? Yeah, yeah, the same thing.
Only did that watchman say there were any kids on the pier last night,
Valentine, I'm trying to get the dock here the talking. Didn't watchman
see any kids? No? Okay, so long. I wish I could
head you, miss Brooks. That's all right, mister Murphy. Come on,
son said, even host here is pretty badly under married Cleveland woman would
be back tomorrow. She might know something about the buy here again. Come
on, get out of the street, you and the kid. Never mind
any place here, duck in the alley in this neighborhood, angel, I
don't want to. I don't know packing crate. You can't see he's gone.
Now, what's happened? What's going on? Simple brooks? A nice
simple case. My guess is the kid here was an eyewitness to murder.
It'll be a simple case if he isn't murdered. Oh kid, please talk,
Please tell me what you what did you see last night? Look,
nobody's gonna hurt you. I won't let him. You must have seen things
like this plenty of times before. Kid. I don't mean murder, but
you grew up in a tough place, and you're not gonna do anybody any
good if you just yes, he just cries, George, I'm taking him
home. You can solve your own fancy waterfront murders. Okay, I'll leave
him alone. But which one are you covering for? Kid? Only a
few men around that pier last night? Which one is that important to you?
All right? Maybe you've given me the answer at that without talking,
says you. You admitted you saw your left? He didn't you? Before
he was murdered? I ten one rally along the deck. Look, I
promised me a nice Thanksgiving dinner. See left, he can pass walking up
to the pier and never come back. But didn't he say who he was
coming out to meet? Didn't he here we are rally. What's going here?
Hey, Skipper, this is your cabin, right? Oh? No,
no minds for the ways, it's all right, the owner's cabin.
Nobody was you just want a place to toss all raise. I'm going to
say, come on you too, Skipper. The name is Stove, isn't
it. Yeah? Well wait a minute, here's the other one. Bring
him in here, sergeant, Let go, Let go, mister salvallry,
Now I have to stand rats on my ship right, picked him up in
the neighborhood, Skipper. That's all for now, Sergeant. What about the
kid Valentine? Oh he's all right, Riley. I uh, I left
him in my car out on the street. So because my name is Salvo,
you think you were around here last night too, Wasn't it always around
stock loafers? Yeah? But don't try to cover up so much, Skipper.
What I listen to all of you. We can't find anybody else with
a chance of being out here last night, but you three. I was
on my ship talking this peddler. I said, don't cover so much.
Salvory is a friend of yours. Sure, sure, everybody's a Salvori's frank,
except the law oh look, this is a smuggle case. Oh what
not on my ship. I've never brought it. Lefty, the man who
was killed, knew his way around the city. Salvori, you're the big
waterfront middle man. And Captain you've got a boat. See where I meet
cops. They got enough to spot an ideal set up for smuggling. Captain
Stove. You bring it in, Salvory picks it up, gets it through
customs, and left he fitted in some place in the city. I think
you crazy. Somebody was waiting a little while ago to wale Miss Brooks and
a kid who was an eyewitness Brooks Brooks, Skipper, you're too fat to
run down an alley like he did. Sure I heard his steps. Sniffy
just shuffles. So tags Alfori, you're rich because now I know why you
ran the first time when we saw the body. It's what proves you guys
work together. Now I know you because on the pier earlier you came up
yelling to the skipper something about a woman. Well, a woman must have
been Miss Brooks. You'd seen her with a boy, the witness. The
two of you have been trying to find sure Skipper. You were looking for
boys. When I first met you too, weren't you my cigars? That's
all my cigar. Never mind, Salvorie. The kid out there is going
to give us the whole story, and a lot straighter than you ever would,
because I finally figured out his whole story. I never been mixed up
in it all smuggled, sure, and never in the fight or use a
knife. Why did you do it? Befty? Tried a double cross on
you too. You're under arrest for murder, SABORI come on, I'll take
him out for you. Riley Le take the other two. But I'm not
mixed up in his terial witness and accessory for you. Captain, please please
not come on, come on out the door. Meet you on the pier,
Rilly, Hey, you nobody's sorry. Grab him you come on there?
He goes down the plank. Yeah, head it farther up on the
pier, up to the warehouse, Samory. Do you think a sergeant saw
him? Yeah? Sure, sure, you'll get him all life. Well
that was a nice act, good idea. Now come on, far's back
the other way. Yeah. Hey, hey, did you notice that empty
cabin on the ship, Yeah, stings on the pillow empty. I'll bet
I've always even been traveling with the skipper. Sure it's a smuggling ring,
all right, Still confused, don't you, Riley? Oh it was originally
a smuggle sure. Never mind. He'll never prove anything on this bunch unless
you catch him in the act. And Riley, we're going to do just
that. Well, it's the only car in the street. We're close enough.
But it's been five minutes already, about tying that this hundred yours is
going to pay off at better time to run the other way, hasn't it.
I don't see how you can do. Oh no, I didn't expect
a gun. Come on, come on around the side of the building.
That's my car, Riley. I hope somebody is going to pay for it.
There he is. You're wasting your time, Skipper. The car is
empty, you hear me? The kids uptown It was a trap, Skipper.
The only one who'd stick his neck into what trap is the one who
did the stabbing, right, the one who has to get rid of the
kid, the witness. So we don't even need to ask the kid,
now, do I got them at the hospital, Georgie, He says he
I'll get his confessions from stow the kids in there. I'm trying out a
system. We write each other notes. What about the smuggle stuff? Those
drugs they searched the ship. Ye, yes, they've already found some drugs
hidden. I don't understand what did you say writing notes? Don't you understand
how the smuggle worked with a thief, a middleman and a skipper involved the
drugs that couldn't be sold in this country except through the proper channels. It
would sell for a fortune Europe or on the black market. Oh you mean
it was to be smuggled out of the country. That's right, Brooks and
Lefty. The guy who was killed stole the drugs and delivered them last night,
but he got a knife instead of a payoff, and the kids saw
it. George, you mean the boy he talked? He's all right.
I guess he will be. See. I was afraid he was, well,
maybe the skipper's son or something. Yeah, I know, psychic shock
his refusal to talk. But he's not. He's only none of for a
few weeks. Kid didn't even know where he fitted into the plan until a
few days ago. Oh, George, for heaven's sake, he doesn't have
any parents. Books and just a waterfront kid, but not nearly as tough
as the eggs. What's missing in the smuggle set up? There's customs on
the other side. You know, who gets the goods into the other country
off the ship? The boy you mean, he was a partner. Nobody
can stop him all over the world, up and down like monkeys. Perfect,
isn't it. Yeah, if he'd been with me, you should have
noticed empty cabin on the ship with grease stains on a pillow. But Salvori
is bulled. We better buy some shampoo for that kid. By the way,
he was a Yeah, he saw the captain go ashore to meet Salvory
and Lefty. He saw the murder, and he broke out and got away.
Let me talk to him. It's ridiculous business of writing notes. Oh
sure, he'll talk now. Just been scared to death, that's all.
Only wanted was to be happy. He was expecting to be happier than he'd
ever been before. George, if you don't stop playing Clervlin and the captain's
the only one who could have brought the kid, therefore, made him afraid,
made him run ashore. Therefore, Brooks, he the skipper, was
it well? Don't you remember how the kid reacted when I asked him to
go to a football game. Just puzzled, Georgie is writing sure, sure
is gives me more time to look the words up in the dictionary. Ah,
sure right, That's why I wouldn't talk before. He wants to stay
in this country. Great, we'd find him out. He's from Marseille,
he's friends. Wait, Marchie ma Shimla. That week he monsieur you dic
hey friend? Uh here, give me the pencil and the dictionary. You
think you could stand it? Tw dinner, George Turkey, we one language.
I guess it is Thanksgiving, isn't it? And now I got a
pilgrim on our hands, Angel hungry little pilgrim Tonight. Earlier in the program,
you heard how road tests jibed with laboratory results in the development of new
RPM motor oil. You've been taken step by step along the path followed by
our scientists in bringing you this new oil years ahead of its time, from
the first survey to determine what the ideal motor oil should be through the ultimate
proof in an automobile engine. You've heard the new RPM story firsthand. Now
discover it yourself firsthand. It's sold with a money back guarantee of satisfaction at
Standard station and independent Chevron Gas stations where they say and mean we take better
care of your car. The Night's Adventure of George Valentine has been brought to
you by Standard Oil Company of California on behalf of independent Chevron Gas Stations and
Standard Stations throughout the West. Robert Daily is starred as George, with Virginia
greg as Brooksy. Let George Do It as written by David Victor and Jackson
Gillis and directed by Don Clark, Whilely Mayer is Lieutenant Riley Alan Reid was
heard as Stove, Dick Ryan as Sniffy, Anthony barrett A Salvory, Jeffrey
Silver as Shorty, and Stephen Chase as the Doctor. The music is composed
and presented by Eddie Dunstedder your announcer John Houston. Listen again next week,
same time, same station two. Let George Do It. Your Community Chest
helps care for homeless and neglected children in your own neighborhood. Community Chest childcare
centers operate year round this year, Make sure you give enough to your Community
Chest to help all year. This is the mutual Don Lee broadcasting system Welcome
back. One thing I'll about the Let George Do It episodes from before nineteen
fifty one was Wally Mayer as Lieutenant Riley. Such a great actor, and
he manages to make his character so interesting with some cynicism, but also with
a real true fondness and friendship for George and a kind heart. He also
has the power to hear and respond to the narrator, as happened at the
return from Commercial break. Now in the twenty first century, the idea that
the only way to make money on the sale of prescription pills was smuggling them
out of the country might sound counterintuitive or even naive. However, World War
II had created many shortages in Europe that were years being resolved, and that
does include medication. The persistence of the black market would make prescription drug smuggling
an appealing crime and even more profitable than any sort of domestic prescription abuse.
I also really enjoy the commercial. It was a really neat treat that might
have worked better on television, but was still interesting in radio. As they
described this experiment, I've been thinking about doing a interesting commercials edition of the
Old Time Radio snack Wagon, and this one might actually fit the bill.
Overall, I thought this was an enjoyable Thanksgiving special. Unlike some others,
it doesn't have heavy handed uses of turkeys or pilgrims, or even make the
Thanksgiving me all the centerpiece of the story, but it does use Thanksgiving as
a backdrop and also to provide a nice emotional payoff as well. I hope
you enjoyed this episode and again a reminder to check out or other Thanksgiving specials
