fifty one, here is the Philip Hunt murder Case.

13
00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:38,959
Speaker 2: Broadways My beat from Times Square to Columbus Circle. The gaudiest,

14
00:01:39,159 --> 00:01:42,519
the most violent, the lonesomest mile in the world.

15
00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:54,439
Speaker 3: Broadways My beat with Larry Thor as Detective Danny Clover.

16
00:02:07,719 --> 00:02:10,919
Speaker 2: In Springtime's Early Morning Broadway depends upon the mood you're

17
00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:14,080
in now. The seesaw of color is gone, the riot

18
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:16,400
of night sounds is stilled, and the revelers have found

19
00:02:16,439 --> 00:02:19,800
their sleep. There's nothing here but litter, and missed the

20
00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:22,919
beginning sunlight. But it's the start of an April day.

21
00:02:23,039 --> 00:02:26,759
That's something. You walk into it, and there's something else.

22
00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:29,960
The man standing against the lamp post, staring, hands locked

23
00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:32,400
in back of him, and last night's newspaper trapped against

24
00:02:32,439 --> 00:02:36,120
his leg walked past him quickly. Kid, it's better to

25
00:02:36,159 --> 00:02:44,680
start the day with a cup of coffee. I didn't

26
00:02:44,719 --> 00:02:46,680
have time for coffee. The call came while I was

27
00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:49,000
pouring the cream. The call with a cold number that

28
00:02:49,039 --> 00:02:52,120
said homicide, that set an address on Fifth Avenue, that

29
00:02:52,159 --> 00:02:55,240
said get there, and get there, and get ushered into

30
00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:56,919
a room and into the presence of a man who

31
00:02:57,039 --> 00:02:59,479
uses words instead of numbers in describing death.

32
00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:02,360
Speaker 4: Was a gun that did it, Danny Revolver, two shots

33
00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:04,960
missing from the chamber. One killed him over there on

34
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:06,919
the bed. We're still looking for the other level.

35
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:07,400
Speaker 5: Who is he?

36
00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:12,120
Speaker 4: Philip Hunt Securities Investments retired about two years ago to

37
00:03:12,159 --> 00:03:14,840
try to enjoy himself, the maid said. The maid called

38
00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:18,639
it in what else plenty, Let's go. I'll show you.

39
00:03:18,719 --> 00:03:22,919
It's down the hall, big party here last night. Danny

40
00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:28,159
glasses Scotch bourbon gin cigarette butts, gold tipped cork tip

41
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:29,360
lipstick tip.

42
00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:35,159
Speaker 5: Oh this too, oh pocket lighter, fancy one.

43
00:03:35,479 --> 00:03:41,479
Speaker 4: Give me a light one, thanks, Yeah, real fancy and

44
00:03:41,479 --> 00:03:43,120
Evans catching engraving on it.

45
00:03:43,719 --> 00:03:46,199
Speaker 5: From Barbara to the wheel end. It'll have to be traced.

46
00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:51,000
Speaker 4: Found it in the bathroom, in the shower store doorbell made.

47
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,199
It'll get it in here, Danny the library.

48
00:03:56,159 --> 00:03:56,639
Speaker 5: Who were they?

49
00:03:57,319 --> 00:03:59,439
Speaker 4: The girl stretched out on the couches, and niece of

50
00:03:59,439 --> 00:04:02,879
the dead man names Lewis Hunt the mats lives here

51
00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:06,639
him the soldier over there on the chair that made

52
00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:07,919
didn't know him, never.

53
00:04:07,719 --> 00:04:09,759
Speaker 5: Saw him before. How about the rest of the people

54
00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:10,280
at the party?

55
00:04:11,039 --> 00:04:13,840
Speaker 4: Nothing there yet. Maybe the girl in the corporal will

56
00:04:13,879 --> 00:04:16,319
know when they come to. Doctor Sinski gave him a needle.

57
00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:18,160
Speaker 5: A needle to a couple of drunks. What are you

58
00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:18,800
talking about?

59
00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:24,560
Speaker 4: Are not drunk? The drinks were doped. Yeah, girl's glass smell.

60
00:04:24,759 --> 00:04:28,040
The corporal's the same. Doctor Sinsky said, It's fortunate he

61
00:04:28,079 --> 00:04:28,800
got here in time.

62
00:04:32,639 --> 00:04:34,959
Speaker 2: Then the gathering together of the police reporters and the

63
00:04:34,959 --> 00:04:38,600
press photographers, the statement for the new editions, the jolly

64
00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:41,399
farewells over the dead, and the promise of the mention

65
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:44,720
of your name, the bribe for more detail more. You

66
00:04:44,759 --> 00:04:47,360
know what Danny got to compete with the comics kid,

67
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:56,920
and the walking away from it, and in your office,

68
00:04:56,959 --> 00:04:59,680
the arrangement and rearrangement on your desk of the clutter

69
00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:03,279
that ended Philip Hunt's dying, a cigarette lighter, a gun

70
00:05:03,399 --> 00:05:07,199
fired twice, two glasses stained with death, and a few

71
00:05:07,199 --> 00:05:09,879
hours later, the quiet opening of the door, and two

72
00:05:09,959 --> 00:05:13,480
kids stand waiting, bewildered, their eyes not touched by the

73
00:05:13,519 --> 00:05:14,040
morning light.

74
00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:18,000
Speaker 6: Doctor Sinsky said it was all right for you to interrogate.

75
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:20,040
Speaker 2: Us now, He said, Oh, come in, miss Hunt, Corporal,

76
00:05:21,519 --> 00:05:22,279
that's it on.

77
00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:23,959
Speaker 4: You.

78
00:05:23,959 --> 00:05:25,319
Speaker 2: Sure you feel all right, Miss Hunt?

79
00:05:25,519 --> 00:05:29,079
Speaker 6: No, no, no, I'm fine, just a little dazed. I've

80
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:34,079
had other mornings like this, maybe not quite so sad, uncle.

81
00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:37,040
Speaker 2: Phil did you, Corporal? I'm fine, sir, just fine.

82
00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:37,839
Speaker 5: He'll be all right.

83
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:42,279
Speaker 2: Doctor Sinsky's a good man. You two known each other long,

84
00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:45,600
been going together a long time, yes, or a long time,

85
00:05:45,639 --> 00:05:48,279
maybe five or six months. I saw Lois at a

86
00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:49,040
USO dance.

87
00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:51,759
Speaker 6: You're lying, Tommy. Don't tell a man a lie.

88
00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:52,759
Speaker 5: I know what I'm doing.

89
00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:53,079
Speaker 4: Kid.

90
00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:56,920
Speaker 2: Just look, maybe you don't, Corporal, you you tell me those.

91
00:05:56,839 --> 00:06:01,399
Speaker 6: I only met Tommy last night at a bar, lonely,

92
00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:04,160
kind of lost made him so attractive.

93
00:06:05,199 --> 00:06:05,720
Speaker 7: I'm rich.

94
00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:07,639
Speaker 6: I bought his drinks.

95
00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:09,040
Speaker 5: And you took him to the party at your home.

96
00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:10,879
Speaker 7: There wasn't a party. We made up as we went

97
00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:11,680
a long you know a bar.

98
00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:14,480
Speaker 6: How picked up people who said funny things. I took

99
00:06:14,519 --> 00:06:17,959
them home because I wanted to celebrate Tommy, the nice corporal.

100
00:06:18,079 --> 00:06:20,959
Speaker 5: It wasn't a pickup, sir. Lois is a fine girl.

101
00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:24,519
Speaker 2: Jeez, I am Tommy's sweet was your uncle at the party?

102
00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:24,839
Speaker 5: Loss?

103
00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:26,800
Speaker 7: We crashed in on him just as he was getting

104
00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:29,560
ready for bed. We all kissed him good night. That's

105
00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:31,759
how gay we were. We all kissed my uncle good night.

106
00:06:31,879 --> 00:06:34,000
Speaker 2: Let's tell you left him going to bed, yes, sir,

107
00:06:34,519 --> 00:06:35,959
then you rejoined the party.

108
00:06:36,199 --> 00:06:36,600
Speaker 5: Yes, sir?

109
00:06:37,439 --> 00:06:38,720
Speaker 2: This gun is that.

110
00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:40,399
Speaker 6: The one that killed my uncle Phil.

111
00:06:40,879 --> 00:06:43,160
Speaker 7: You know the gun was given to my uncle Phil

112
00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:44,120
by his employees.

113
00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:46,079
Speaker 6: They know how I loved guns.

114
00:06:46,199 --> 00:06:50,439
Speaker 2: You know the gun corporal, Yes, sir, Lois took it

115
00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:53,560
out of the case so I could show the party

116
00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:56,600
how how a soldier uses a gun. Who'd you show

117
00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:57,399
your tricks to?

118
00:06:57,399 --> 00:07:00,360
Speaker 5: Tommy? Who else was at the party? I don't know, You're.

119
00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:03,399
Speaker 6: Honest, I do he know them if I didn't, they

00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:07,480
Speaker 5: Just fun.

122
00:07:08,959 --> 00:07:12,439
Speaker 2: Then I passed out and Lois was sitting there already

123
00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:16,000
passed out with a book in her lap. She can

124
00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:20,160
reading poetry to me, and she passed out, and I laughed.

125
00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:20,839

Speaker 9: What does it you want?

148
00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:30,040
Speaker 5: Is your husband home?

149
00:08:31,319 --> 00:08:33,559
Speaker 9: No, you'd better stop in another.

00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:36,200
Speaker 5: Time, as too, clover or is your husband?

151
00:08:36,799 --> 00:08:39,519
Speaker 9: I don't know. I didn't invite you to go in there.

152
00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:40,639
Where do you think you're going?

153
00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:41,720
Speaker 2: Is he your husband?

154
00:08:42,399 --> 00:08:44,279
Speaker 9: Heypay? I told you if you stared in that mirror

Speaker 9: Hey, Bay, you must know mister Clote, he's a model

161
00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:05,879
for my husband. Willard did him as narcissist.

162
00:09:06,039 --> 00:09:07,600
Speaker 5: What's paper doing here now?

163
00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:11,799
Speaker 9: Waiting? He dropped in to see Willard? Willard's going to

164
00:09:11,799 --> 00:09:12,840

165
00:09:12,879 --> 00:09:15,399
Speaker 5: When the last time you saw your husband, missus Jordan.

166
00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:18,159
Speaker 9: Early yesterday morning. I handed him a sketch pad when

167
00:09:18,159 --> 00:09:20,279
he walked out of the door. Now you tell me something.

168
00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:22,240
Why is it so important for a policeman to talk

169
00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:22,759
to my husband?

170
00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:24,600
Speaker 5: He was at a party last night where a murder

171
00:09:24,639 --> 00:09:26,440
was committed, and you.

172
00:09:26,399 --> 00:09:28,600
Speaker 9: Think Willard did it? Willard?

173
00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:30,759
Speaker 5: I didn't say that. I just want to talk to himself.

174
00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:37,480
Speaker 9: Willard committed murder. Paypey, paype one more time and out

175
00:09:37,519 --> 00:09:37,799
you go.

176
00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:40,480
Speaker 2: Doesn't it worry that your husband didn't come home last night?

177
00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:43,840
Speaker 9: Why should worry me? What do you mean?

178
00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:46,200
Speaker 5: Willard does not come home like this before?

179
00:09:47,519 --> 00:09:47,759
Speaker 11: Oh?

180
00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:51,159
Speaker 9: Oh, I see it to me. Yes, Willard stays way

181
00:09:51,159 --> 00:09:53,639
off and he's a roamer. He goes places, talks to

182
00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:57,679
strange people, from material to paint. Let's see. Yes, he

183
00:09:57,720 --> 00:09:59,879
said he was going to take a model around last night,

184
00:10:00,159 --> 00:10:06,720
model a paper, Barbara, I think yes. Barbara Sullivan, nice girl.

185
00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:09,080
You've seen her in the beer ads. Mister clover. She

186
00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:13,320
lives close by. I'll tell you where. If she knows

187
00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:16,480
where Willard is, phone me let me know, will you,

188
00:10:17,639 --> 00:10:18,320
of course you will.

189
00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:41,440
Speaker 10: Whenever it is slipping under the door.

190
00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:43,799
Speaker 2: Trying to get to sleep, Open up, miss Sullivan, it's

191
00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:45,639

192
00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:49,080

196
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:07,639
Speaker 9: On the billboards.

197
00:11:07,799 --> 00:11:10,600
Speaker 2: Missus Jordan told me you might know where her husband is.

198
00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:14,879
Speaker 10: Melissa told you that, good old Melissa.

199
00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:19,519
Speaker 2: We want Willard for suspicion of murder. What you were

200

201
00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:22,639
Speaker 5: With Willard? Where is Willard now?

202
00:11:23,279 --> 00:11:25,639
Speaker 10: Sleeping off a jag under a cold water tap and

203
00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:29,039
the shower stall of the fifth Avenue mansion. I know

204
00:11:29,919 --> 00:11:33,039
I threw him there myself, everything I do myself.

205
00:11:33,159 --> 00:11:34,120
Speaker 5: He's not there anymore.

206
00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:36,639

Speaker 5: That's where you left him.

210
00:11:44,279 --> 00:11:47,840
Speaker 10: I left him in the shower store and told you that.

211
00:11:47,919 --> 00:11:48,759

Speaker 10: M maybe two, three, four in the morning. I remember.

215
00:11:57,120 --> 00:11:59,000

Speaker 9: I know?

221
00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:10,960
Speaker 2: Philip Hunt? You were in his house last night.

222
00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:14,720
Speaker 10: That's where I was. That's where that pale, little rich

223
00:12:14,759 --> 00:12:17,759
girl took us. I wish i'd known. Maybe I could

224
00:12:17,759 --> 00:12:19,960
have wheedled the old man into using me in his advertising.

225
00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:21,960
Speaker 2: That's all it means to you. A man's murder or

226
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:22,879

00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:32,679
Speaker 2: I'll live for it. Keep posing for beer, miss Sullivan,

231
00:12:32,759 --> 00:12:33,960
just so i'll know you're around.

232
00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:37,200
Speaker 10: I'll do it good because i'll keep it in mind.

233
00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:41,000
You'll be staring at me through shop windows. I'm by now.

234
00:12:41,639 --> 00:12:42,840
It's side pad time again.

235
00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:48,919
Speaker 2: So a half day had gone by and I had nothing.

236
00:12:49,519 --> 00:12:51,799
The Technical division had something, though, and they gave it

237
00:12:51,799 --> 00:12:54,399
to me. There'd been about seventeen people at the party

238
00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:57,480
last night at the home of Philip Hunt. Seventeen people,

239
00:12:57,480 --> 00:13:00,000
according to the kind of drinks, drags in the bottom

240
00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:04,360
of liquor glasses and fingerprints, maybe nine men and eight women.

241
00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:07,360
So far I had talked to three of the seventeen.

242
00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:10,000
Result shrugs and bleary answers.

243
00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:10,960
Speaker 5: Result. Nothing.

244
00:13:11,879 --> 00:13:13,879
Speaker 2: Back Now to the home of Philip Hunt and talk

245
00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:17,080
to his niece again, outside, this time in the small garden.

246
00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:19,919
Sit in a wrought iron chair and watch Lois Hunt

247
00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:21,600
taker three o'clock Scotch and soda.

248
00:13:21,879 --> 00:13:23,919
Speaker 7: Sure you won't have one, mister Clover.

249
00:13:23,799 --> 00:13:26,799
Speaker 2: No thanks. Listen to me, Lois. All I want you

250
00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:28,799
to do is try to remember who else was here

251
00:13:28,879 --> 00:13:31,639
last night. Somebody who had a motive for killing your uncle.

252
00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:36,279
Speaker 6: I had a motive. Money, I inherit most of the estates,

253
00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:40,200
how soldier boy, Tommy, nice kid. I'm going to visit

254
00:13:40,279 --> 00:13:40,840
him tomorrow.

255
00:13:40,919 --> 00:13:42,799
Speaker 5: You mean you just pick these people up and brought

256
00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:43,200
them home?

257
00:13:43,279 --> 00:13:43,799
Speaker 9: For sure?

258
00:13:44,279 --> 00:13:46,679
Speaker 7: Grab beg You never know Lor.

00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:50,919
Speaker 11: There's cleaning.

00:13:51,399 --> 00:13:53,039
Speaker 10: Please please look.

261
00:13:59,039 --> 00:14:02,759
Speaker 2: The guesthouse was just across the garden, up a few steps.

262
00:14:03,639 --> 00:14:06,480
The place was neat as a pin starched linen curtains,

263
00:14:06,519 --> 00:14:10,039
maple chairs, and three shagged throw rugs placed at interesting angles.

264
00:14:10,759 --> 00:14:13,320
And the one that stretched diagonally across the floor was

265
00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:17,200
a man. I knelt beside him, away from the bloodstain

266
00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:19,200
that had spilled from the bullet wound in his chest.

267
00:14:19,879 --> 00:14:22,480
His coat was still moist and it was spread open.

268
00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:25,799
There was a label on the inside pocket tailored it

269
00:14:25,919 --> 00:14:30,159
set by Jensen's Mills, expressly for mister Willard Jordan, and

270
00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:32,080
mister Willard Jordan was dead.

271
00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:51,480
Speaker 3: You are listening to Broadways My Beat, written by Morton

281
00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:33,279
It's dying without a tear. What's to weep?

282
00:15:33,399 --> 00:15:33,679
Speaker 3: Kid?

283
00:15:34,120 --> 00:15:36,759
Speaker 2: The dawn banging on the radiators, tearing, sleeping of pieces

284
00:15:36,799 --> 00:15:39,240
on a cold morning. The standing on the street corner

285
00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:41,120
in the night wind, trying to thumb through the racing

00:15:41,159 --> 00:15:44,399

00:17:05,599 --> 00:17:08,680
that the bullet that killed Willard Jordan Artists sprang from

314
00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:10,559
the same gun that did likewise.

Speaker 2: Huh, that's interesting, Gene. Only a stab in the dark.

325
00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:37,559
But if a fellow wanted to talk to this Major Woodcock.

326
00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:39,359

00:18:17,319 --> 00:18:21,960
Speaker 11: Don't pussyfoot boy, You're from the police. Be proud of it.

334
00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:25,680
Nothing to be ashamed of. Walk on tiger's feet.

335
00:18:25,839 --> 00:18:27,319
Speaker 5: About Philip Hunt.

336
00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:32,559
Speaker 11: My friend, my old friend, chaperone of Mademoiselle around Paris

337
00:18:32,599 --> 00:18:37,279
and the old army days together. Phil and I many

338
00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:41,400
sunny days to remember. You want to know if I

339
00:18:41,559 --> 00:18:44,640
was with Phil the night he died. Were you dropped

340
00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:48,359
in for randy game chess? A lot of young people

341
00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:51,559
took me in tow, made me act the major with

342
00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:55,839
the boy a young corporal who was there. I'm afraid

343
00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:58,160
it was a rather pathetic entertainment.

344
00:18:58,240 --> 00:18:59,680
Speaker 5: Then you got away from them.

345
00:19:00,039 --> 00:19:03,960
Speaker 11: Happy to dismiss me, shunted me upstairs to old Phil.

346
00:19:04,759 --> 00:19:08,839
We had our quiet brandies, our endless chest came never

347
00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:14,200
finished it and cried old soldiers tears, and so to bed.

348
00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:15,880
Speaker 5: You didn't come back for breakfast?

349
00:19:16,039 --> 00:19:19,200
Speaker 11: Oh you know about that do? You had breakfast with

350
00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:24,920
Phil every morning since our discharged in the library seven am.

351
00:19:25,039 --> 00:19:25,559
Speaker 5: Pleasant.

352
00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:30,720
Speaker 11: Then we'd putter around in the garden, pleasant, a ritual.

353
00:19:30,839 --> 00:19:34,000
But you didn't come back that morning? Why too tired?

354
00:19:34,559 --> 00:19:39,559
Overslept over brandied. I wish I had come back? Why

355
00:19:40,519 --> 00:19:44,240
bid feel a good journey? Dead men can hear things

356
00:19:44,319 --> 00:19:49,240
like that, you know pleases them. There was another reason

357
00:19:49,359 --> 00:19:51,240
I wish i'd have come back.

358
00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:53,920
Speaker 5: Want to console Lois and thought of that.

359
00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:59,240
Speaker 11: No, thank Phil for including me in his will. Left

360
00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:03,400
me quite a som enormous sum, quite an over payment

361
00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:07,240
for my work in his garden. But you knew about that. No,

362
00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:11,039
I didn't makes me a suspect, though it does. It

363
00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:16,079
should be interesting when you asked me about Willard Jordan,

364
00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:20,839
the artist right now painted my portrait. Willard did there?

365
00:20:20,839 --> 00:20:25,559
It is hanging in back of me. Major Robert E.

366
00:20:25,759 --> 00:20:32,480
Woodcock retired leaning against a field piece, classic clap trap.

367
00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:37,759
But I've grown rather fond of it. That's all there

368
00:20:37,839 --> 00:20:41,000
is of me now, me and it. I can always

369
00:20:41,039 --> 00:20:44,920
reach you here Major Bill's gone? Where else would I go?

370
00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:01,599
Speaker 9: It doesn't matter to you that I'm a widow, now,

371
00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:02,039
does it?

372
00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:04,720
Speaker 5: You have to ask me questions, that's right, Missus Jordan.

373
00:21:04,759 --> 00:21:07,039
Speaker 9: I won't answer them. I don't have to answer them.

374
00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:08,799
Please get out and let me alone.

375
00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:10,960
Speaker 2: You told me you weren't at Lois Hunt's house last night.

376
00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:14,400
You heard what I said?

377
00:21:17,519 --> 00:21:20,079
Speaker 9: How was it Lois Hunt's house last night? I know

378
00:21:20,839 --> 00:21:22,519
he's a terrible party pape.

379
00:21:22,519 --> 00:21:23,720
Speaker 5: They take you to the party.

380
00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:27,799
Speaker 9: Tapey never goes to parties. He spills things in people's rugs.

381
00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:28,480
I went along?

382
00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:30,119
Speaker 5: Did Lois pick you up at a bar?

383
00:21:30,839 --> 00:21:32,079
Speaker 9: I never go to bars?

384
00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:33,559
Speaker 5: And you were following your husband?

385
00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:35,039
Speaker 11: So what? So what?

386
00:21:35,279 --> 00:21:36,200
Speaker 5: It's your right? Missus?

387
00:21:36,480 --> 00:21:39,920
Speaker 9: Of course it is. I was his wife, just tagged

388
00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:43,119
along just in case Willard got into trouble with that

389
00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:48,960
brewery poster. That's all. Saw Willard go into the house, waited, well,

390
00:21:49,599 --> 00:21:50,400
then I went in too.

391
00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:53,000
Speaker 5: Willard got into trouble. Missus Jordan, where were you?

392
00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:57,920
Speaker 9: Well?

393
00:21:58,079 --> 00:21:58,480
Speaker 11: Well, what.

394
00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:02,920
Speaker 9: Has to be sociable at a party? Anybody knows that

395
00:22:03,079 --> 00:22:06,000
somebody gave you a drink? Never did get to see Willard?

396
00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:08,079
Speaker 2: And you must have gotten to know some of the people,

397
00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:10,039
just names.

398
00:22:09,759 --> 00:22:17,319
Speaker 9: Like Nicki and John and Bobby. Honestly, I don't remember

399
00:22:17,359 --> 00:22:30,680
a lot. Honestly, did I see you?

400
00:22:30,759 --> 00:22:31,079
Speaker 5: Danny?

401
00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:32,599
Speaker 2: Oh sure, Muggavn, come on in.

402
00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:36,599
Speaker 4: What have you got got to report here from the

403
00:22:36,599 --> 00:22:39,559
finger print department? You know what's strange, Danny?

404
00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:42,519
Speaker 2: The gun's got the prince of seventeen people on it.

405
00:22:42,799 --> 00:22:45,480
Speaker 4: Or maybe you did have once, not anymore? Wipe clean.

406
00:22:46,599 --> 00:22:47,799
Speaker 5: What's the drama for Muggavn.

407
00:22:47,799 --> 00:22:49,400
Speaker 2: Why don't you just say it didn't have any prints

408
00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:49,599
on it?

409
00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:51,920
Speaker 4: Because it has prints on it. The most beautiful set

410
00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:54,839
of prince is possible, the entire hand of Lois Hunt.

411
00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:59,559
Here's a photostat without a blemish or a smear killer,

412
00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:00,160
Lois h.

413
00:23:00,759 --> 00:23:01,319
Speaker 5: Do you think so?

414
00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:05,200
Speaker 2: I'm asking you, Daddy, No, No, I don't think so.

415
00:23:05,359 --> 00:23:07,960
Somebody doped to drink and pressed her hand against the gun.

416
00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:10,319
If Lois had handled the gun to kill both men,

417
00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:12,480
she'd have handled it twice. Then there would have been

418
00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:16,160
two sets of prints, not one. Yeah, killer tried to

419
00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:16,759
plan a frame.

420
00:23:16,839 --> 00:23:17,160
Speaker 10: Huh.

421
00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:19,160
Speaker 5: I don't know, maybe or what else?

422
00:23:19,599 --> 00:23:24,039
Speaker 4: Nothing, Just these photographs of the Hunt mansion interiors, exteriors.

423
00:23:24,599 --> 00:23:26,319
Six of the people who were at the party last

424
00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:28,119
night are outside. You want me to bring them in?

425
00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:34,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, one at a time. Wait a minute, vacuum. Have

426
00:23:34,119 --> 00:23:36,960
you talked to that corporal lately? A couple of times?

427
00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:39,920
Six to his story passed out right after the girl did.

428
00:23:40,119 --> 00:23:42,000
Speaker 5: She'd been reading to him. Isn't that what he said

429
00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:43,079
in poetry?

430
00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:46,000
Speaker 4: Even told me the name of the books Sonnets from.

431
00:23:46,039 --> 00:23:48,440
Speaker 2: Look at this picture mugovin library for the kids we

432
00:23:48,519 --> 00:23:50,759
found up boy sitting here, girl there?

433
00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:53,720
Speaker 5: Yeah, see any book near them? Now?

434
00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:57,440
Speaker 2: Look at this one picture of Hunt dad in his bedroom,

435
00:23:57,759 --> 00:23:59,960
Squint muggovn. What's the name of the book.

436
00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:07,640
Speaker 4: Summits from Portuguese? You don't have to talk to those people, now,

437
00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:15,400
do you. Danny?

438
00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:24,680
Speaker 10: Missus Lewis is upstairs in her room.

439
00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:26,119
Speaker 9: I'll tell her you're here.

440
00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:27,480
Speaker 5: Take me to her, please.

441
00:24:28,759 --> 00:24:29,200
Speaker 11: This way.

442
00:24:31,119 --> 00:24:33,400
Speaker 2: What time did you find miss Lewis and that soldier

443
00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:35,920
in the library, Francis, about.

444
00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:39,279
Speaker 9: A quarter after six. I've told that other policeman the.

445
00:24:39,599 --> 00:24:41,359
Speaker 5: Quarter after six. Isn't that pretty early?

446
00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:46,079
Speaker 9: Sure, Charley, I'll do it every morning, clean up in

447
00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:48,319
the libraries so mister Hunt and that major could have

448
00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:48,960
their breakfast.

449
00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:51,559
Speaker 2: Saw miss Lois and the soldier passed out and went

450
00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:54,000
to tell mister Hunt. You saw mister Hunt dead and

451
00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:54,799
called the police.

452
00:24:55,039 --> 00:25:02,440
Speaker 9: I told another policeman that too, mis what is it policeman?

453
00:25:03,799 --> 00:25:08,160
Speaker 6: Hello, mister Clover, come one and that'll be all. Francis, Well,

454
00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:11,519
come to tell me something about that soldier boy that

455
00:25:12,759 --> 00:25:14,920
I'm going to try to do everything I can for him.

456
00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:15,920
Speaker 7: You want to drink?

457
00:25:16,039 --> 00:25:18,599
Speaker 2: That gun that killed your uncle and Willard Jordan had

458
00:25:18,599 --> 00:25:19,359
your prints on it?

459
00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:26,000
Speaker 6: Aren't you warm? I am just a second one.

460
00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:27,359
Speaker 7: The casement opened.

461
00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:29,519
Speaker 6: It's much more pleasant, don't you think? And what did

462
00:25:29,559 --> 00:25:29,920
you say?

463
00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:31,599
Speaker 5: The gun had your prints on it?

464
00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:34,759
Speaker 7: Didn't it have everyone's? We all handled the gun.

465
00:25:34,839 --> 00:25:35,920
Speaker 6: Why just my prince?

466
00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:38,720
Speaker 2: Because you wiped off everybody's prince and put your own

467
00:25:38,759 --> 00:25:39,160
on it.

468
00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:41,680
Speaker 7: I must have been loaded Why did I do that?

469
00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:43,599
Speaker 5: Make me think what? I thought? That?

470
00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:45,960
Speaker 2: You've been framed. Someone had put the gun in your

471
00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:47,440
hand when you'd passed out.

472
00:25:47,839 --> 00:25:49,400
Speaker 6: You've come to tell me you don't think that.

473
00:25:49,599 --> 00:25:52,000
Speaker 2: What were you reading to Tommy when that dope drink

474
00:25:52,039 --> 00:25:52,680
caught up with you?

475
00:25:53,559 --> 00:25:57,079
Speaker 6: Some Sonnets? I think everybody else had left, so I

476
00:25:57,119 --> 00:25:58,759
thought sonnets were just a thing.

477
00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:00,559
Speaker 7: Corny?

478
00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:00,960
Speaker 6: Huh.

479
00:26:01,079 --> 00:26:02,880
Speaker 2: You were reading the Sonnets and all of a sudden

480
00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:04,599
you felt dizzy and you went to sleep.

481
00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:05,839
Speaker 5: Is that what happened?

482
00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:06,680
Speaker 6: Exactly?

483
00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:07,799
Speaker 7: I told you.

484
00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:10,839
Speaker 2: But the book wasn't there when we found you, Lois,

485
00:26:11,079 --> 00:26:14,359
What where was it on the night table next to

486
00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:14,920
your uncle?

487
00:26:15,519 --> 00:26:17,359
Speaker 6: But I was drugged? How to get there?

488
00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:20,000
Speaker 2: You put it there? That was an oversight, Lois. You

489
00:26:20,079 --> 00:26:22,640
carried it up to your uncle's room, but.

490
00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:25,680
Speaker 7: I was drugged. You know that the doctor knows that

491
00:26:25,799 --> 00:26:26,559
I was drugged.

492
00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:28,880
Speaker 2: Later, you put on an act for Tommy, pretended to

493
00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:30,880
pass out, waited for the drug you'd put in his

494
00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:33,079
drink to work on him. Then you got up, killed

495
00:26:33,119 --> 00:26:35,680
your uncle, came back, then drugged your own drink.

496
00:26:35,839 --> 00:26:38,960
Speaker 6: Don't tell me what I did. If I'd done that,

497
00:26:39,039 --> 00:26:39,839
I would have died.

498
00:26:40,799 --> 00:26:42,680
Speaker 7: The doctor said, that drug was deadly.

499
00:26:42,759 --> 00:26:45,599
Speaker 2: Your own doctor, you didn't have anything to worry about. Francis,

500
00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:47,920
your maid always cleaned up the library at six o'clock.

501
00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:51,680
You knew she'd yell for help. Now tell me about

502
00:26:51,720 --> 00:26:53,000
Willard Jordan Lewis.

503
00:26:53,119 --> 00:26:55,400
Speaker 6: Don't talk to me like that. Don't tell me what

504
00:26:55,599 --> 00:26:55,880
to do.

505
00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:58,240
Speaker 2: Well, Jordan came back, didn't he He was looking for

506
00:26:58,279 --> 00:26:59,079
a cigarette letter.

507
00:26:59,240 --> 00:27:01,759
Speaker 6: You know every You and Uncle Fick.

508
00:27:01,680 --> 00:27:04,799
Speaker 2: Came back and saw Tommy lying there alone. Then you appeared.

509
00:27:05,319 --> 00:27:06,400
You had a gun in your hand.

510
00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:08,720
Speaker 7: You're so smart, walked.

511
00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:10,519
Speaker 5: Well into the guesthouse, killed him because.

512
00:27:10,319 --> 00:27:11,319
Speaker 6: You had to smart.

513
00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:14,519
Speaker 7: Uncle was smart, told me what to do. Why I

514
00:27:14,559 --> 00:27:15,279
had to do it.

515
00:27:15,279 --> 00:27:17,279
Speaker 2: It wasn't just the money you had. That your uncle

516
00:27:17,279 --> 00:27:18,279
gave you everything you want.

517
00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:20,319
Speaker 7: Like I was a little girl, like I didn't know

518
00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:21,240
my own mind.

519
00:27:21,519 --> 00:27:23,279
Speaker 6: Just the way you're talking to.

520
00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:24,079
Speaker 5: Me, let's go all over.

521
00:27:24,240 --> 00:27:27,519
Speaker 6: No, no, no, come on, no, I won't go.

522
00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:30,079
Speaker 7: I'm going to kill myself.

523
00:27:30,359 --> 00:27:31,559
Speaker 5: Get away from that wind all OUs.

524
00:27:32,799 --> 00:27:33,559
Speaker 9: I'm gonna jump.

525
00:27:34,319 --> 00:27:35,680
Speaker 6: I don't care, I'm gonna jump.

526
00:27:36,319 --> 00:27:36,839
Speaker 2: Listen to me.

527
00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:40,680
Speaker 10: Don't you come near me. I'm gonna die.

528
00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:46,920
Speaker 9: You'll be sorry, all of you when I'm lying out there,

529
00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:49,119
you'll be sorry.

530
00:27:49,599 --> 00:27:52,039
Speaker 6: My friend look good, and they'll look at me and

531
00:27:52,079 --> 00:27:55,200
they'll be sorry.

532
00:27:57,640 --> 00:27:58,240
Speaker 5: And I grab her.

533
00:27:58,319 --> 00:28:02,160
Speaker 2: She didn't struggle, was just shrieked over and over. When

534
00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:04,880
I let her out of the room, she was still shrieking,

535
00:28:05,079 --> 00:28:11,559
and all of a sudden she stopped. Then she looked

536
00:28:11,599 --> 00:28:17,559
at me, bewildered at first, then smiling an etiquette smile

537
00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:19,960
that a girl gives a man after a pleasant dance.

538
00:28:21,319 --> 00:28:25,920
Speaker 5: Then she touched my cheek. She spoke, I.

539
00:28:25,839 --> 00:28:29,119
Speaker 6: Don't think my friends would have been sorry, mister Clover,

540
00:28:30,920 --> 00:28:31,960
I really don't.

541
00:28:53,559 --> 00:28:56,319
Speaker 2: On Broadway, the fury of the night races against the

542
00:28:56,359 --> 00:28:59,920
time of dawn. It needs those hours to prove itself.

543
00:29:00,519 --> 00:29:04,759
The mob, the grinning faces, the voice that whispers. But

544
00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:09,400
hurry times at your heels, and the night lasts only

545
00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:16,440
so long. It's Broadway, the gaudiest, the most violent, the

546
00:29:16,519 --> 00:29:18,400
lonesomest mile in the world.

547
00:29:19,640 --> 00:29:41,599
Speaker 3: Broadway, My Beat, Broadways, My Beat stars Larry Thor as

548
00:29:41,720 --> 00:29:45,519
Detective Danny Clover, with Charles Calvert as Tartaglia and Jack

549
00:29:45,559 --> 00:29:49,039
Krusian as Muggovin. The program was produced and directed by

550
00:29:49,079 --> 00:29:52,079
Ali At Lewis, with musical score composed and conducted by

551
00:29:52,079 --> 00:29:56,039
Alexander Courage. In tonight's cast, Kathy Lewis was heard as

553
00:30:00,599 --> 00:30:03,759
Michael Ann Barrett is Barbara Sullivan, and Russell Simpson as

554
00:30:03,839 --> 00:30:19,079
Major Woodcock. Our defense program today calls for sacrifices, but

555
00:30:19,160 --> 00:30:22,039
the better we produce, the fewer those sacrifices will be.

556
00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:25,440
To do this most effectively, we must all work together

557
00:30:25,559 --> 00:30:29,680
toward top productivity. The free booklet The Miracle of America

558
00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:32,000
gives the story of the American system and of the

559
00:30:32,039 --> 00:30:35,799
benefits which increased productivity through teamwork has brought to all

560
00:30:35,839 --> 00:30:39,599

563
00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:54,359
now for Singing Again, which follows immediately over most of

564
00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:58,440
these same CDs stations. Joe Walder is speaking. This is

565
00:30:58,519 --> 00:31:01,279
CDs where you laugh at Jack every Sunday night the

566
00:31:01,319 --> 00:31:19,079
Columbia Broadcasting System.

567
00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:17,240
Speaker 1: Welcome back. Even with the expectation that the maid was

568
00:31:17,400 --> 00:31:20,839
going to show up, she was taking an awfully big risk.

569
00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:24,440
If the maid was late or the police doctor couldn't

570
00:31:24,440 --> 00:31:27,240
get there right away, or if the doctor was not

571
00:31:27,359 --> 00:31:30,480
quite as good as doctor Sinski, she could have died.

572
00:31:31,079 --> 00:31:34,279
It was a huge gamble. But then again, whoever said

573
00:31:34,400 --> 00:31:38,640
murderers are always sensible? Now we got to hear Kathy

574
00:31:38,759 --> 00:31:42,960
Lewis as the murderer, and it's worth talking about. She's

575
00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:48,880
an incredibly talented radio actress, but unlike people like Virginia

576
00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:51,319
greg or Piggy Weber, we don't get to hear her

577
00:31:51,440 --> 00:31:56,680
much now. At this point, she was playing Irma's best

578
00:31:56,720 --> 00:32:00,880
friend on My Friend Irma, and she'd also be on

579
00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:05,880
frequently on radio anthology programs like The Suspense or The

580
00:32:05,920 --> 00:32:10,559
Whistler every week. Much earlier in her career, she played

581
00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:14,559
Phyllis Hamilton to Wally Maher's Michael Shane, but she didn't

582
00:32:14,559 --> 00:32:20,079
appear as often in guest roles in detective programs. For

583
00:32:20,119 --> 00:32:22,920
the most part, the major disclosed that he had a

584
00:32:22,960 --> 00:32:27,160
motive for doing the killing, which I think is sensible.

585
00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:32,440
There is nothing that gives the police more suspicion than

586
00:32:33,119 --> 00:32:35,680
if you act like there was no motive and they

587
00:32:35,759 --> 00:32:38,720
find out that there was. And we have a comment

588
00:32:38,839 --> 00:32:42,640
for Carol who writes, I've enjoyed listening to you for years,

589
00:32:42,799 --> 00:32:45,720
and it is time to show my appreciation. Well, thank

590
00:32:45,759 --> 00:32:49,680
you so much, and I appreciate your donation. Thanks so much.

591
00:32:49,799 --> 00:32:53,680
And then Mechanics sixty six riots regarding the episode the

592
00:32:53,799 --> 00:32:58,400
Ben Justin murder case over on Spotify. Since they knew

593
00:32:58,440 --> 00:33:01,359
they couldn't be tried again for the same crime, why

594
00:33:01,359 --> 00:33:07,160
would they bother killing anyone or for that matter, paying blackmail? Well,

595
00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:13,480
I think one thing that the insurance agent reference in

596
00:33:13,519 --> 00:33:16,880
that episode was the idea that for one hundred thousand

597
00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:22,799
dollars they keep trying. The episode had the idea that

598
00:33:23,759 --> 00:33:29,559
they could somehow have the insurance money clawed back, although

599
00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:31,920
I guess it would kind of depend on how the

600
00:33:31,960 --> 00:33:37,599
insurance contract was written. Would the insurance company be able

601
00:33:37,799 --> 00:33:43,039
to reclaim the funds, perhaps by filing a wrongful death suit,

602
00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:47,200
or is the lack of a criminal conviction enough to

603
00:33:48,519 --> 00:33:51,240
allow them to keep the insurance money. So I'm not

604
00:33:51,319 --> 00:33:55,720
certain the technicality on that, and I guess beyond that

605
00:33:56,039 --> 00:33:59,839
is just the whole social angle. Even if you're not

606
00:34:00,359 --> 00:34:07,119
criminally convicted, if somebody comes out with evidence that you

607
00:34:07,319 --> 00:34:11,360
did the murder, that's very convincing to the public. You're

608
00:34:11,440 --> 00:34:15,519
not going to prison, but life may be very unpleasant

609
00:34:15,559 --> 00:34:18,039
for you. And so those are the things that I

610
00:34:18,039 --> 00:34:22,320
would expect go into committing the murder now. And as

611
00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:25,320
I said, whether they legally would be able to get

612
00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:29,239
the money back, I'm not certain, although there is a

613
00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:33,440
clear intimation from what the insurance agent said that the

614
00:34:33,480 --> 00:34:37,360
insurance company believed that they could somehow get the money back,

615
00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:41,440
which is why they were keeping an eye on Ben

616
00:34:42,400 --> 00:34:47,360
Justin and his relationship with this couple in this case

617
00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:51,400
he investigated. And then Ryan Sir comments on the on

618
00:34:51,519 --> 00:34:56,440
YouTube regarding the Kenneth Mitchell murder case. What a case. Wow, Well,

619
00:34:56,480 --> 00:34:59,440

631
00:35:41,679 --> 00:35:46,400
My Beat, But join us back here tomorrow for drag netwere.

632
00:35:48,360 --> 00:35:52,440
Speaker 12: This is Hank Carter, Sergeant Friday, Sergeant Ben Romeo. Please, department, Hank,

633
00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:54,039
I wonder if you'd tell these officers a little of

634
00:35:54,079 --> 00:35:56,480
what you told me about kill Dore TV specialists and

635
00:35:57,119 --> 00:35:59,440
how supports. I'm a customer. I commend to kill Gore's

636
00:35:59,519 --> 00:36:01,760
I don't like aside of my repair bill. What were

637
00:36:01,760 --> 00:36:04,360
you instructed to say? We generally tried to talk him

638
00:36:04,400 --> 00:36:06,440
out of any complaint. Of course, I complained about all

639
00:36:06,480 --> 00:36:08,719
the multiple charges. I wanted an explanation of the work

640
00:36:08,760 --> 00:36:10,639
you did. What then you just tell you that it

641
00:36:10,679 --> 00:36:12,679
wouldn't do any good to explain. You wouldn't understand all

642
00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:15,880
the technical stuff anyway. Tell us kill Gore's attitude with

643
00:36:15,960 --> 00:36:16,440
the customer.

644
00:36:16,760 --> 00:36:18,440
Speaker 5: You mean about the loose wires test? Yeah?

645
00:36:18,440 --> 00:36:18,760
Speaker 12: Please?

646
00:36:19,280 --> 00:36:20,760
Speaker 13: Well, kil Gore used to tell us that if we

647
00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:23,039
only charged fifty cents for fixing the loose wire, the

648
00:36:23,079 --> 00:36:25,599
customer wouldn't believe we really fixed his set. So we

649
00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:28,199
used to charge quite a lot more, well, how much more?

650
00:36:28,239 --> 00:36:31,079
For example, for Nichols worth of wire, we usually charge

651
00:36:31,079 --> 00:36:32,519
four dollars and seventy five cents.

652
00:36:32,599 --> 00:36:34,760
Speaker 11: Pretty fair profit and it's a real rub.

653
00:36:35,199 --> 00:36:36,119
Speaker 5: What else can you tell us?

654
00:36:36,159 --> 00:36:38,599
Speaker 13: An We'd never let a customer watch any of the

655
00:36:38,599 --> 00:36:42,000
TV repair job. For example, if a customer causes says

656
00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:43,360
he thinks the two is blown out and it will

657
00:36:43,360 --> 00:36:45,960
only be a simple replacement job in his home, and

658
00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:47,639
we'd tell him the parts they are getting hard to

659
00:36:47,639 --> 00:36:49,440
get and we'd have to take his set into the

660
00:36:49,440 --> 00:36:51,199
shop and charge him a higher rate because we had

661
00:36:51,199 --> 00:36:52,920
to pay black market prices for the two.

662
00:36:53,320 --> 00:36:55,840
Speaker 1: I hope you'll be with us today and in the meantime,

663
00:36:56,119 --> 00:37:01,280
