now it's time for Michael Shane, and I should say
that there is a bit of a change here. Michael
Shane at this point had gone to being a national program.
We have more than a year and a half, or
well more than a year's worth of episodes missing, but
we have two episodes from this national run of Michael Shane.
The original air date on this program is November the
fifth of nineteen forty six, and the titnle is returned
to Hwsley.
Speaker 3: Oh oh, why yes, of course I'm speak English.
Speaker 4: I will take no college stuff.
Speaker 5: In that's final, mister Shane says, you'll be delighted to
take the case.
Speaker 6: The Hastings Manufacturing Company and the Case Side Corporation presents
Michael Shane, Private Detective, starring Walling Mayer and Kathy Lewis.
A detective without a murder case is like Flapjacks without stir.
Yet that is just the predicament of our friend Michael Shane.
The fact things it's so dull that we find Michael
and his blond assistant Phillis Knight, not at the office,
not at police headquarters, not at the Morgue, but swirming
uncomfortably in the seat of higher learning, in other words,
the office of the President of Huxley. Colleague Professor brill
Is explaining the situation to our friends.
Speaker 7: Mister Sheane, I decided to ask for your help because
Phillips Knight graduated from Huxley and as.
Speaker 8: Now as I understand it, you're a manuins.
Speaker 4: My Oh, no, professor, she's just my secretary.
Speaker 9: Emanuensis means secretary my pitt.
Speaker 4: Oh excuse me, yes, so is he, mister Shane.
Speaker 8: We don't want to take our problem to the town police.
Speaker 7: Unfavorable publicity, you know, but something must be done about
it immediately.
Speaker 8: It's affecting the morale.
Speaker 4: Of our girls.
Speaker 10: The girls I thought best price was co educational, is,
mister Shane.
Speaker 8: But our feminine students seem to be more affected by it.
Speaker 9: All a bad rash of Frank Sinatra. Oh no, no, that.
Speaker 8: Is no more than usual effect. You'll understand that. Talking
with the victims, I have two of them waiting on
the out offs.
Speaker 7: Just a moment, Oh, miss Brown, yes, step right in.
This is mister Shames Brown.
Speaker 11: How do you do?
Speaker 4: Oh?
Speaker 8: And miss Knight, and mister Shane's associating one of our
former alumna.
Speaker 7: I should explain, Miss Brown, and mister Sane is a
private investigator, but we have employed to solve the embarrassments
which have been occurring here recently.
Speaker 8: Now, if you will just repeat your stories.
Speaker 11: Well, if you say so, Professor Brill, it's a little embarrassing.
Speaker 4: Well, go right ahead, Miss Brown.
Speaker 9: Well, it happened last Monday night.
Speaker 11: I was in my room in the sorority, getting ready
for bed. I was getting into bed when I heard
a sound like somebody.
Speaker 4: Giggling, m and a necho maybe.
Speaker 11: Oh no, sir, more like a mad laugh.
Speaker 9: It came from the window.
Speaker 4: It was open, but there was a screen.
Speaker 11: Somebody was trying.
Speaker 5: To pry it off, and then I screamed, that's the
usual procedure, I believe.
Speaker 4: Go on, Miss Brown. Well he ran away.
Speaker 9: That's all.
Speaker 10: Do I understand, Professor Brill, that you brought us all
the way down here just because of some peeping town No, no.
Speaker 8: No, no, you don't appreciate the situation, mister Shane.
Speaker 7: In the past week, I've had at least a dozen
complaints similar to Miss Brown's. Oh my, it's gotten to
our girls never know when they're saying.
Speaker 9: Well, I don't think that's peculiar to Huxley College.
Speaker 4: Professor.
Speaker 7: Oh really, oh, mister Shane, I think you should hear
the newest turn of events, Miss Brown, when you ask
a Quincy bold Wind to step.
Speaker 11: In, it's all right if I leave, Professor, good bye,
mister Shane, Miss.
Speaker 4: Night, bad time.
Speaker 7: Until last night, mister Sheane, none of the boys had
been involved.
Speaker 4: But now well i'll let Quincy. Oh we'll come out
in Quincy, tall, blonde and ruggy.
Speaker 7: And mister Shane, this is Quincy Baldwin, another of our students,
our most brilliant student, and.
Speaker 4: Say, oh well, I'm glad to meet you. How do
you do, sir?
Speaker 8: And miss Knight charm Miss Knight, thank you Quincy. Mister
Sheane would like you to tell him your unfortunate experience
of last night.
Speaker 12: Oh well, mister Shane, about ten o'clock last night, I
was coming home from a lecture, and about a block
from my fraternity.
Speaker 4: A masked man jumped out from behind a hedge, and yes,
well he cacked me on the head.
Speaker 10: I see, just a friendly gesture or some sort of
college hazy hardly.
Speaker 4: Sir, the man had a gun.
Speaker 10: Oh anyway for you to recognize him again?
Speaker 4: Oh no, sir, he got away.
Speaker 7: And should add mister Sheen that this individual has been
sending anonymous notes to my office. He boasted his activities
and promises more these things to come. If it doesn't
stop soon, a mass hysteric we'll break off among the student.
Speaker 12: But I hope you catch him, sir. I'm willing to
do anything I can to help.
Speaker 7: Yes, that's an idea, Quincy, Perhaps you should go along
with mister Sheen. You can acquaint you with the campus
and all our activity.
Speaker 4: Be glad to sir. Well for this afternoon, i'd like
to work alone.
Speaker 10: If this peeping tom performs only at night, well suppose Quincy,
you'll need to say.
Speaker 12: About nine or nine point thirty. Well, could you make
it ten, sir? I have to attend a lecture tonight
and it's on the kinetic principles and thermal diffusion.
Speaker 9: Really, I'm just trying that sometime.
Speaker 4: H yes, yeah, okay, okay, make it ten o'clock. Where
will we meet? Well at the clock tower.
Speaker 5: Meanwhile, maybe this afternoon, Quincy can kill me around.
Speaker 9: I'll bring me up to date on thanks.
Speaker 4: Oh hah, I'm sorry, Sugar. I want you We've got
to check those anonymous notes.
Speaker 9: You said you wanted to work alone.
Speaker 4: I've changed my mind, if you know what I mean. Wow,
that tower clock is five minutes sol according to.
Speaker 10: My watch, our good looking friend should be though, oh
good looking book. And if you ask me, all yeah,
and since when do you go for blonde guys with
curly head?
Speaker 9: Will you look? Who's talking?
Speaker 10: You spent plenty of time wandering around the girl's gym
this afternoon. Research, honey, research, And it looks to me
like this particular seat of learning has got quite a spread.
Speaker 4: Baby, you know what I mean?
Speaker 9: I get Hey, here comes our blond menace right now.
Speaker 12: Hell there, hello, Sorry to be late. The lecture was wonderful.
I wish you could have heard the professor of the
separation of the isotopes.
Speaker 9: Oh no, have they separated again?
Speaker 4: Yes, yes, yes, all over town. Missus isotope couldn't stand
is drinking.
Speaker 5: Oh well, I know it was causing chark.
Speaker 4: Well, anyway, it was a good lecture.
Speaker 5: You know. With all your enthusiasm, Quincy, I suspect there's
a cute redhead at the desk in front of him.
Speaker 12: Oh no, no, no, the feminine element doesn't fit into
my program.
Speaker 9: Really.
Speaker 12: Look, I may seem a little over enthusiastic, but you see,
my father used to teach her at Huxley psychology, So
airy addition is probably bred into the corpuscles.
Speaker 4: You might say, you.
Speaker 10: Guys have been shot for saying less. Well, suppose we
get started.
Speaker 4: Huh. The sorority houses are on Elm Street, aren't they? Yes,
the street here to our right.
Speaker 10: I'm blamed to find on where we start, just ambling
down sorority role waiting for some galley? Yelp, isn't my
idea of an investigation?
Speaker 12: Have you checked on the notes this individual has been writing? Yeah, yeah,
I did that this afternoon. The guy printed him with
a pen.
Speaker 4: No dice.
Speaker 5: You know this place hasn't changed a bit street square
as the grave at ten o'clock.
Speaker 4: May I make a suggestion, mister Shane.
Speaker 12: Yeah, well, it might look better if you and this
night were alone for a while, if you were to
get in your car and park under a tree, and
well you follow my train of.
Speaker 10: Thought, Well, I think I caught the caboose, at least
in basic English, you mean smooching.
Speaker 4: You know you're improving, Quincy. That's the first sane idea
we've paid.
Speaker 9: A minute, isn't that? Professor brill?
Speaker 4: Yes, and running too.
Speaker 8: To make mischief. Something terrible has happened, just terrible.
Speaker 4: Yeah, what at the sorority?
Speaker 9: What of the girl's husband murdered? Oh what a dreadful,
dreadful thing to happen.
Speaker 4: Mm hmm did about a half an hour and a
very neat job of strangling.
Speaker 9: What what's that one around her throat?
Speaker 10: Michael, Well, it looks like yeah, yeah, it is the
license from the football A football.
Speaker 4: Who found her? I did? You're one of the students
living here.
Speaker 3: Yes, Geene Winters, I came to ask as for my
sewing kid. I forgot it when I moved out. You see,
we lived together. I couldn't stand it any longer.
Speaker 4: Oh what was wrong?
Speaker 9: I'll tell you, mister Shane as Hell's mother the sorority.
Speaker 13: I owe a duty to my other girls and they
Jean moved to another room before she.
Speaker 9: And Agnes drove the rest of us insane.
Speaker 4: Please missus Fuller.
Speaker 9: They were fighting always.
Speaker 5: Yesterday I called them in here, pulling hair and smashing things.
Speaker 3: Boy, trouble, I told Agnes I went out with Gill
only once.
Speaker 5: Is that why Agnes slammed the door Gill's face this afternoon.
Speaker 9: I saw that myself.
Speaker 4: They wait, hold it, who's the Gil Gill Packard.
Speaker 12: Mister Shane is our star halfback in my room made
he was Agnes's boyfriend.
Speaker 4: Tight little corporation, this missus.
Speaker 10: Fuller during the last hour, did anybody hear any unusual
sounds from this room?
Speaker 9: No, it's been very peaceful since yesterday.
Speaker 4: Then the killer probably with somebody. Agnes knew.
Speaker 10: That the window over there, any way of reaching it
from the outside, the little porch, I.
Speaker 9: Suppose somebody could climb up it.
Speaker 5: But if you ask me, mister Shane, I think you
won't have to look outside this room for the murderer.
Speaker 4: If you're talking about me.
Speaker 8: This is for long.
Speaker 4: If you ladies don't mind, I'll run this circus.
Speaker 10: Michael, Yeah, outside that window, I'll see if I can
get a look at him.
Speaker 4: Shop where you are?
Speaker 9: Who is Michael?
Speaker 4: Oh? Darned he got away. I just saw his back.
But mister Shane, aren't you going after him? No?
Speaker 10: No, it's useless. He's got too much of a head start. Anyway,
I got a hunch he's not the man we want.
Speaker 9: Dollars to donuts.
Speaker 10: It was the beeping tom maybe. Well, children, I think
that's all here for the while. Oh, say, Quincy, have
you any idea where I might find Gill Packet at
the moment.
Speaker 4: For sure has to be in his room by nine
o'clock every night he is in training. Okay, then let's
take off.
Speaker 12: Our room is right down the hall here.
Speaker 4: Fine. I don't know your purpose, mister Shane, but I
can tell you Gil has nothing to do with this affair.
I didn't say he had Quincy.
Speaker 10: I'd just like to get a list of Agnes's possible enemies.
I can't rely too much on miss gen Winters.
Speaker 9: You might also check on this spat between Gil and Agnes.
Speaker 4: This is our room.
Speaker 12: Oh oh, oh, lisy, Gil, this is mister Shane in
this night.
Speaker 4: They want to see you about something, a social call.
Mister Packet.
Speaker 10: Oh, I'll say, you got quite a scratch on your
cheek there it's bleeding. Oh yeah, I was just changing
the vantage I got it in the scrimmage.
Speaker 4: Oh won't you have a chair? Miss Night? Thank you?
By the way, mister Packard, wasn't it rather risky to
great training tonight?
Speaker 1: How did you?
Speaker 4: Oh so Agnes plant again? Did she told her what
would happened if the coach found out?
Speaker 10: Thinks it's so funny to make a guy jump through hoops. Now,
now it wasn't Agnes, mister Packett.
Speaker 4: I happened to recognize the plaid coach you're wearing.
Speaker 10: I saw the back of it when you ran away
from the sorority house a few minutes ago.
Speaker 4: That's how you got the scratch, isn't it.
Speaker 10: Uh?
Speaker 4: Well, I fell off the porch.
Speaker 10: Somebody yelled at me, and I got scared and ran
I wanted to talk to Aggie, and well, I wasn't
supposed to be out after nine o'clock.
Speaker 4: I figured nobody would see me at or when.
Speaker 12: I'm afraid it's all my fault, mister Shane. I told
Gil to go over there tonight and have it out with.
Speaker 4: Agnes once and for all.
Speaker 10: Oh the trouble over Jeane witness no or another guy,
Red Burrows. He knows I'm crazy about her, And you know,
see what's all this pumping about.
Speaker 4: Anyway, Agnes has been murdered, mister Packett.
Speaker 9: Murder what she's did? That's right?
Speaker 4: Oh no, but it doesn't seem possible. But this is afternoon, Agana.
Speaker 9: Oh my might look under that bookcase, mister Packard.
Speaker 4: Did you go to see Agnes at any time earlier?
This evening. No, can you prove it?
Speaker 10: I was with him with the lecture, mister Shane, yes,
and we came back here and Quinn's left.
Speaker 4: I sneaked out later.
Speaker 10: I see, by the way, is that your football under
the bookcase there?
Speaker 4: Huh, yes it is, mm hmmm. It's unlaced. Where the strings?
Speaker 10: I don't know it was lace this afternoon, Michael, where
are you going to telephone?
Speaker 4: I think the police can take.
Speaker 9: Over from here.
Speaker 4: What do you mean, Well, for.
Speaker 10: Your information, mister Packard agnes Cott, I was strangled with
a pair of football laces, or didn't you know?
Speaker 4: Good morning?
Speaker 9: Oh, good morning, mister shame.
Speaker 4: We'd like to see Professor Brow all right.
Speaker 9: I think he's busy right now. He telephoned for us
to come right over. Oh, then I'll tell him you're
here at testiment all right. You know, Michael, I don't
like this case. There's something to fishy about it. Somewhere.
Speaker 4: Yeah, fish he is an aquarium. It's too blame simple.
Speaker 9: Then you don't think Gilpatrick did it?
Speaker 10: No, Oh, we had to arrest him. Circumstances were too strong.
But you know who our man is, who handsome face?
That quincy bird?
Speaker 9: Why you can go right in.
Speaker 4: Oh, oh, thanks, come on baby, ah, and.
Speaker 8: Mister Shane was that. I'm glad you could come it.
Speaker 7: Quincy here has been pestering me for one solid half hour.
Speaker 12: Yes, mister Shane, you've got a clear Gill he didn't
do it.
Speaker 4: You know who did?
Speaker 9: Well?
Speaker 4: No, but I'm sure Gil is innocent.
Speaker 12: Why I roomed with him for two terms now the
most popular boy on the campus.
Speaker 4: He's a swell fella. He wouldn't do such a thing.
And besides I was with him most of the evening.
Speaker 9: But he did break training and wanted to lie about it.
Speaker 4: Oh, he was just scared.
Speaker 8: The whole thing is most regrettable and most regretful.
Speaker 7: I anticipated a very unfavorable reaction among our regions and alumni.
Speaker 4: Well, Quincy, I don't see that there's much that can
be gotten. Old Gil will be given a fair trial.
Speaker 12: To Shane, almost anybody could have killed Agnes.
Speaker 4: She had plenty of enemies. The girl didn't like her,
The boys got two times. She had a miscellina complex.
Speaker 9: Is that ben psychological devil talk?
Speaker 4: Michael?
Speaker 9: It means a lady wi.
Speaker 13: Agnes went for one boy after another minute she knew
he was in love.
Speaker 4: With her, she'd throw him over to short power. Gill
was just another one.
Speaker 12: Any of those boys might kill her or one of
the girls Geene Winners, for instance.
Speaker 9: Anybody might partly, Professor Brill, the special delivery letter just came.
Speaker 4: Oh, yes, oh you do it?
Speaker 9: Yes?
Speaker 8: Oh excuse me while I see what this is.
Speaker 4: Yes, sure, sure, well if it's.
Speaker 10: As you say, can see everybody on the campus is
in this. I think I'll let the local police end.
Speaker 8: Oh well, this is frightful that what's wrongs?
Speaker 4: Read this letter, Professor Brill. I told you you couldn't
stop me, even from murder.
Speaker 10: Nobody cannot with me, least of all that wool brain
detective you've hired.
Speaker 4: You'll be hearing from me again. That's all that's unsigned. Well,
now you'll believe me, mister Shane Gill his innocence maybe not.
Gill could have mailed this letter before we arrested him
to make it look like the work of your peeping tom.
What do you propose to do now, mister Shane h
home Professor what yep?
Speaker 10: Yeah, I don't feel like playing blind Man's buff any longer.
Speaker 4: Yeah, the local police can take over.
Speaker 10: But mister shape I'm sorry say should remind you, mister Shetton,
your fee was dependent upon catching this peeping tom who
is now a murderer. That's okay, professor. At least I
can say I've been through a college you're coming through.
Speaker 9: Oh yes, yes, oh.
Speaker 4: Oh.
Speaker 10: By the way, professor, could you tell me who is
the most popular girl on the campus. Who Claire Fisher
won the last popularity contest?
Speaker 9: Why?
Speaker 8: Oh?
Speaker 4: Nothing? Nothing? Goodbye, gentlemen.
Speaker 9: Mike, what am we stopping for? Do you leave something
back to the hotel?
Speaker 10: Uh?
Speaker 9: Uh?
Speaker 10: For me?
Speaker 4: Have you seen the new Carry Grant movie? No, well
you're going to. In fact, you're going to see it
three times today?
Speaker 9: Are you kidding? I thought we were headed for the city.
Speaker 4: That's what I want everybody to think.
Speaker 10: Let's go, come on, baby, the theaters right across the
street until nine o'clock tonight.
Speaker 4: It's you and me in the dark and cozy.
Speaker 5: Pretty good, pretty good with Carrie Grant.
Speaker 9: Oh look, my dear, mister Shane. Do we have to
keep walking around the same block all night? Mike, let's
stop a minute.
Speaker 4: I tell you it's going to happen. I feel my book.
Speaker 9: I still say, nobody's going to pull two murders two
nights running. Besides, I just can't see how you figure
a nice boy like that, Quincy.
Speaker 8: You wait, sever you wait?
Speaker 10: If I'd guessed right, and I think I have, it's
going to happen right across the street in that same
sorority as.
Speaker 5: I see you and the Jed sat down over a
cup of tea and sided the dolls.
Speaker 9: Hey, is that Quincy coming along the sidewall.
Speaker 4: And missus Jean Winters.
Speaker 9: Carrying tennis dragons? Must have had a night game?
Speaker 4: Hello Quincy. Oh, mister Shane, I thought you left.
Speaker 10: Well we were delayed, just taking a last stroll around
the place.
Speaker 4: Well, how are you to night? Miss Winters?
Speaker 9: All right, thank you? Have a good game.
Speaker 2: All right?
Speaker 8: I don't like playing at night.
Speaker 4: She says she can't see the ball under the lights.
Speaker 9: I have enough trouble hitting it in the daylight. I
know what you mean.
Speaker 4: I have the same trouble, Paul. Do you play, miss Night?
Speaker 9: Oh?
Speaker 4: I used to a little. I don't get a chance
very often.
Speaker 8: Now come on, Prince Night's good.
Speaker 4: Is there anything I can do?
Speaker 10: Mister Shane, No, no, thanks, We're just taking a last
look at the campus.
Speaker 9: Quincy if you're going to restreat these right?
Speaker 4: All right?
Speaker 10: All right, well, good by mister Shane, Miss knight, goodbye.
Speaker 9: Good night?
Speaker 4: All right, honey, this is it?
Speaker 9: What Michael? Are you in a trance staring at the
stars like that?
Speaker 4: Come on, baby, we gotta get going. What what's the matter?
Speaker 10: I think I know how missus Claire Fisher is going
to be killed if we don't get there first.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's Claire's room, the lighted windows there to the right.
Speaker 9: On the ground floor.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 9: May I ask mister Shane how you knew which was
her room?
Speaker 10: Or shouldn't I mention more research? Honey, I'd checked it
before we left this afternoon. Now, keep in the shadow
of these bushes. We don't want anybody to spot us.
How do you know Claire is going to be the
one to be killed?
Speaker 4: Just a hunch, honey, figuring it from his angle. Look, look,
her light just went out.
Speaker 10: Okay, Now, look, we've got to get across that stretch
of blond without being seen.
Speaker 4: If we muffed this, it may be the end of
clear do you say when? All right?
Speaker 10: Now, aim for that big bush under the first window,
then work along the building to her window.
Speaker 4: Y'all said yes, okay, let's go.
Speaker 13: We made it all right, I got you having no funny.
Speaker 4: There was two people in town. List an officer, Please,
you've got us wrong. I'm the detective, Michael Shane.
Speaker 8: Oh yeah, you left town this afternoon.
Speaker 4: Wait a minute, you're leaving for the station right.
Speaker 9: Now, Michael.
Speaker 4: Somebody's clire's window.
Speaker 10: Yes, come on, we got to get in there. Oh no,
you're open, officer. Look look a girl is going to
be king you ain't that interesting?
Speaker 4: Okay you asked for Come on, Phil quinner.
Speaker 9: Michael, he's going in the window.
Speaker 4: He no, God, how do you get that? Cop? And
come on running? I'm going in this window?
Speaker 9: Watch I do? Please?
Speaker 4: All right, Quincy up with the hands. Stark in here,
mister Shane. You can't see me. What your feeling?
Speaker 9: Why you?
Speaker 4: Oh you know you don't you know? You haven't got

Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, I'll let you in with a minute. Hey,

Speaker 7: Oh look he wasn't kidding me another murderer.
Speaker 4: No, not quite. I can feel her heartbeat strangled with
what tennis strings? Baby tennis strings.
Speaker 10: Or officer, you'd better clamp the bracelets on, mister Quincy.
Baldwin Huxley's most brilliant student is coming too.
Speaker 13: Yeah, yeah, thanks to you, mister Shane, I am the
most brilliant student.
Speaker 4: Arrest are sheep fools.
Speaker 9: Seems to me you have a rather extreme way of
proving the point.
Speaker 4: Girls don't like me. I was too brilliant.
Speaker 13: The boys were jealous of my brains, even killing Tom.
Speaker 4: They reacted just as I wanted him to.
Speaker 13: I started it just as a game to watch the
sheep react, an experiment in psychology, experiment and murder.
Speaker 4: You mean it was.
Speaker 13: Easy when Gil was such a fish. I helped you,
mister Shane. I even risked my neck. It was the
thrill of danger. But you didn't catch me. Misters saying
you just blundered on to what you was stupid man,
well hardly, Quincy.
Speaker 4: You see, you made a couple of slips. You were
the only boy.
Speaker 10: That the peeping Tom picked on, and then you were
so helpful to us.
Speaker 4: You didn't come directly to meet us at the clock tower.
You took a few minutes out to kill Agnes.
Speaker 9: Michael, how did you know you'd try to kill Claire? Tonight?
Speaker 4: Is ego?
Speaker 10: You remember when I asked Professor Brill who was the
most popular girl? Well that was it, Gil the most
popular boy, Claire the most popular girl.
Speaker 4: You couldn't resist that Quincy. I still say, you're stupid.
Speaker 10: Yeah, well it could be, but you'll be wearing the
Dunce cap quincy when you're sitting the gas chamber.
Speaker 4: Oh what's that, honey? Another bill?
Speaker 8: Oh my duck.
Speaker 5: Just a little check from Huxley College, remember.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. Say, by the way, did you
graduate from any other college?
Speaker 9: Of course?
Speaker 8: Man, are you sure?
Speaker 6: Yeah?
Speaker 4: Oh that's good.
Speaker 10: Why, well, colleges give me an inferiority complex.
Speaker 4: That stuff about thermal diffusion and kinetic what do you
call him? That's no place for a dick.
Speaker 9: Oh well, it's all right, Michael.
Speaker 4: I like you just the way you are. Oh you do? Huh?
Speaker 9: Besides, you're intelligent. That's what counts in the long run.
Speaker 4: You wouldn't change me.
Speaker 5: Well, well, what, well, you might take your feet off
the desk.
Speaker 4: Oh, why, certainly, Miss Isotope.
Speaker 5: Why, thank you, mister Isotope.
