Speaker 1: Welcome to the Great Detectives of Old Time Radio from
boy S Adaho. This is your host, Adam Graham. In
a moment, we are going to bring you the first
podcast featuring The Big Story. But first I do want
to encourage you, if you're enjoying the podcast, to please
follow us using your favorite podcast software, and I want
to encourage you to check out our other podcast and
today I am highlighting the Great Adventurers of Old Time Radio.
Of course we do bring you Kloak and Dagger on Saturdays,
but over on the Great Adventurers feed we are now
featuring Adventure Ahead on Tuesdays. It's a really interesting series
featuring book and short story adaptations that will be playing
for the rest of the year, when, of course we
will bring you Tarzan again. We have so many great
adventure series coming. Be sure and check it out at
the Great Adventurers of Old Time Radio at Great Adventures
dot info. Now let's go ahead and talk about the
Big Story. The Big Story was actually a quite popular
and successful anthology program. It had an eight year run
on radio from nineteen forty seven to nineteen fifty five
and also an eight year run on television from nineteen
forty nine to nineteen fifty seven. It was an anthology
series focusing on the investigations of newspaper reporters, so there
is a different lead each week, just as we've got
going on with Cloak and Dagger. But these are intriguing
cases from reporters across the nation, most of whom have
been forgotten. And really the era covered is kind of
a golden age for American newspaper journalism. Most major cities
had multiple competing newspapers with circulations in the high hundred
thousands to the millions. This meant big ad revenue and
there was a huge demand for news and a need
for reporters who would dig to find the truth. The
series is also very well researched. It was answered by
the American Tobacco Company for both the Pall Mall and
later Lucky Strike cigarettes. As a result of the tobacco
settlement and the records turned over, the Old time radio
researchers have a pretty complete archive of all of the
episode scraps, and this includes the cast list, which, given
that the series originated in New York, is a bit
of a trait. Now. While there were more than three
hundred and eighty broadcast of this series. We only have
about a tenth of them, which is sadly far too
common for many old time radio programs. But what we
do have are going to be quite an interesting variety.
So let's go ahead and get started with the Big Story.
The original air date on this one is June fourth,
nineteen forty seven, the tenth episode of the series, and
the Tunnel is the thirteenth Key.

Speaker 5: He never did say, but they're comings.
Speaker 4: And goings were off lobs.
Speaker 2: I know she studied over to the hospital, and I
kind of figured the way he always carried a dog. Yeah, yeah,
I want Well, I'm just thinking he was a doctor.
Speaker 4: It's just so well. The police got the bumbling boyfriend
free with a warning to stay in town, and they
start looking for doctor ed Smith. Elma be gives one
clue to the identity of his obviously tony name that
woman he drove a blue coupet. And then you add
deal with the cruse you and you make them evaluate
them the endorsement of your soil.
Speaker 2: Okay, Bill, here's how it shapes up.
Speaker 4: Now we know he was reading a double life. That
puts the finger on it as a love murder.
Speaker 5: Item one he was a doctor sid Item two he
has a missing piece, said Item three he drives a.
Speaker 4: Blue cupet, and item four he must have been familiar

Why did he say that? Because he said they was
leaving town.
Speaker 2: He said they worked.
Speaker 4: Say do you think he's done us? What do you think?
Speaker 2: One thing? All we have to do is find a
middle age doctor who drives a blue coupe and who
frequents or is familiar with the rifle range.
Speaker 4: Now what do you do? You know what I found
on the cliffs?
Speaker 2: Anything?
Speaker 4: Which just this? The former pixel champion of the United

Will you wait here, Jimmy, Oh, I don't fire Moody
And that body, which is the point you've been naming
at ever since you looked at the body. It carefully
cut cloth. And now all you can do is think
on that to day it is get you a little
piece of grass. Study the green stains on the inside
wheel of the long one being things coolcause an idea.
Walk over to the garage attached to the doctor's pig. Good,
you kind of twitch. There's a cause there. It is
a blue cupet. Yea, there is a thing on the
a red thing.
Speaker 2: They can be a little bit detective and returns.
Speaker 4: What I hope you've been giving you. Get out the
neonpaper and Vistrail doesn't bring him the doctor right away.
If he holds the story a little longer, it will
be too late the morning. Opposition he agrees with that.
You're borrowed about this car? Is you make one stop?
Then you make a phone call.
Speaker 2: Bill Dawson, Jimmy Fuscoll. I think we've got the killer.
I'll dictate the whole story to you, but first let.
Speaker 4: Me set something with you. The doctor's car was just
left at a lap to have a stain analyze. I
have an idea of deny it's blood.
Speaker 5: I want to confront him with the truth if it
is blood. So I'll dictate the story. Now I'll go
ahead and run it and I'll call you back where
the arrest is open.
Speaker 4: The report's coming in.
Speaker 2: Now if anybody wants me. I'll be looking up the
land lady first and then i'll be.
Speaker 4: At Police head Quay.
Speaker 2: All right, ready here, police today arrested doctor Lance Krackett,
position and former pistol stamps of the United States or
question the election with the murder.
Speaker 4: Him.
Speaker 6: It's been three hours since we ran that story on practiced.
The rest and death is going crazy. It's been played
by the press services and every I know, I know,
and what's more, some of the painters of caring than
I have a RX him and you've got the paper.
Speaker 4: And a fox.
Speaker 2: You've gotten crazy, I don't think.
Speaker 6: So where's the dick and the doctor?
Speaker 2: Frankly, come on, come on, I don't know.
Speaker 4: Finally, the detective has got the doctor in the back
way to the chief office.
Speaker 2: He wins at you, the detective that.
Speaker 4: Is, and fine timed with the okaying did I keep
him up long enough?
Speaker 5: You're almost low?
Speaker 4: Suppose are general? They sip the doctor down. They asked
him quiet, careful questions. Did he know the girl? Did
he kill her? No?
Speaker 2: Did he stay here?
Speaker 4: Yes?
Speaker 2: But be a lover.
Speaker 4: No welcome for very quiet questioning, very calm answering. His
case is air tight until you ask to have it
held up a moment and all on the landlady, missus Hammitt,
Is this the man who boarded with miss Johnson? Yes?
Is he the one who returned the key?
Speaker 2: Yes? Thank you?
Speaker 5: All right, doctor, you might as well tell her how
it happened.
Speaker 2: I will you killed her?
Speaker 4: No, I didn't have a date with her that night.
He's threatened to blackmail mine me if I didn't give
her money, so you'll kill it. No. I remonstrated with
her and said I'd raised the money, but she said
she had to have it now, so you'll kill it. No,
why argue them?
Speaker 2: Pleaded and promised, and then I threw her out of
the car and drove away after killing him.
Speaker 4: No, somebody else must have done that after I left.
Speaker 2: That's your try. That is the truth.
Speaker 4: Why did you return the key? Because I wanted to
end the whole business. It won't use that apartment anymore.
There are only two things wrong with that explanation, doctor.
Speaker 5: One is you couldn't have got that key ring from
her without using force.
Speaker 4: I didn't get the keyring man.
Speaker 2: The other is the time you returned the keys.
Speaker 4: I turned the alternative at two o'clock in the afternoon,
the day after your.
Speaker 2: Care, the day her body was found. That's right.
Speaker 4: How did you know she was dead? I read it
in the paper.
Speaker 2: They sure positive.
Speaker 4: I read it in the early edition. The sure that, doctor.
Speaker 5: Here's a clipping of my first story, the one from
the early edition.
Speaker 4: Need it all right? Police were called Friday afternoons the
rifle range in Fisher Road, near mckimley Avenue, where oh
where the unidentified body of a woman was found.
Speaker 2: Out the mesphew was called. They're right, that's all.
Speaker 4: Doctor.
Speaker 5: How did you know the body was that of your girlfriend?
When the paper carried no name? That story appeared on
the street at one thirty o'clock. You returned the key
at two o'clock.
Speaker 2: The extra identifying the body was not out until five.
How did you know the body was miss Johnson? You
told the landlady you wouldn't be needing the key anymore.
Speaker 4: How did you know that?
Speaker 2: Doctor?
Speaker 4: How did you know.
Speaker 2: Upon your house? Because you were the only one.
Speaker 4: Who knew that early that she would get.
Speaker 2: You can't prove that speaking yes, thank you very much,
that was it.
Speaker 4: Jim the news.
Speaker 2: We've been waiting for good. What did you just say, doctor,
We can't prove you that it's now, you can't prove it.
We can help get me. Bill Dorton at the Citizens
just listening in on my conversation with my paper doctor Crankon.
Speaker 4: Bill about that laboratory test of the stain in the car.
Speaker 2: We just got the report. I can tell you in
one word, blood.
Speaker 4: That does it.
Speaker 2: That's it.
Speaker 4: You'll help to apprehend the murderer and you've got your
big story. In just a moment, we'll read you a
telegram from James Foscoe. Now here's that telegram sent by
James Foscoll the Columbus Citizens. Thank you for dramatizing my
big story, Doctor Wisan Gilly, of murder in the first degree.
Statements I took a killer's concession were introduced as evidence
in trials. I received number one.
Speaker 2: Ticket to execution. Again.
Speaker 4: Many thanks for pell Mell Award.
Speaker 2: Thank you, Mitter Fusco. The makers of pell Mell famous
cigarettes are proud to have named you winner of the
pell Mell five hundred dollars Award for notable service in
the fielder journalism.
Speaker 5: Listen again next week same time, same stations.
Speaker 4: When cigarettes will present another big story.
Speaker 1: Welcome back in an interesting episode. The voice you heard
at the beginning was none other than James Fusco himself.
This may have been a special rebroadcast, as someone suggested
given the introduction. Someone else thought that this might have
been a case where Fusco recorded the program at a
radio station and he, in making this sort of personal recording,
goes ahead and provides a verbal record. Okay, this is
what this particular disc is, but we don't know for sure,
and we also don't know how this came into the
hands of old time radio collectors, but that can be
said of most transcriptions. And our hero was indeed none
other than John Gibson, aka the voice of Ethelbert, who
gets a chance to play the reporter detective hero here.
The narrator, of course, was Barry Kroger, with James Mcallian,
Ward Wilson, Gilbert mack Horace, Bram Connie Lemke, Janet Fowx
rounding out the cast. And this does have a bit
of a rep company feel to it. Some of the
actors who are in supporting roles would actually start in
other episodes. The idea of there being an afternoon paper
that could essentially have itself set up with a story
so that it was past the time that the morning
papers could get it in is something that is really
a relic of this age, and it's gonna be tough
to imagine, because you know, if you grew up, lock
me in a world where newspapers put out one newspaper day,
and you know, you watched old movies about big, big
city newspapers and they're running multiple editions and can say
at any time, we got to put an extra out.
You know, there might be some degree of realism if
you're a big New York or Chicago paper, but this
is Columbus, and while you might be able to support
multiple newspapers, they probably all couldn't have multiple editions.
Speaker 5: Now.
Speaker 1: I know that on Dragon Now people ask you what
was the case behind a particular episode, and often there's
not an answer, and that certainly can be true of
the Big Story. But doctor Joe Webb has actually identified
several of the stories that are covered in Big Story episodes,
and some of the sources he cited for being able
to determine this is that sometimes the reporters would write
memoirs and you could gather that from the memoirs, and
it would even be covered in some cases in their
obituaries when they passed. And one thing that he points out,
and it's important to keep in mind when thinking about
the pile Mall Award. While you know, our mind think
five hundred dollars is well, that's okay in the money
of the time, he points out that's was six thousand
dollars and it was actually the money that the big
story gave out was the same amount of money that
you would get for winning a poll, a serprize. So
oftentimes the newspapers would be quite proud and they would,
you know, promote the reporters. So from various sources is
they've been able to determine some of these. Some of
them are not determined. Whenever it is there, i'll elect,
you know, If it is not there, then we don't
know the exact story. If any of you are curious
and happen to be able to figure one of these
out that haven't been identified, I'll certainly read about it
on the air. This one is actually a pretty easy
one to identify. This was a very famous case. Even
if Fusco hadn't mentioned it at the start of the episode.
It's probably one of the most notorious murders in the
history of Columbus, Ohio. And there are more details of
the case, which honestly are a bit laurd. It's quite
understandable why they were not included in the Big Story.
Columbus Underground doc commented the case, and there are full details,
many of which understandably were left out of the radio program,
involving drugs and the details of the affair which I
don't feel a need to repeat, but I will include
a link to the show notes for those who want
to read about that. All right, well, now it is
time to think our Patreon supporter of the day, and
I want to go ahead and thank Robert, Patreon supporter

Speaker 7: Like that, all broken up about the bullet in his chest.
Tried to tell me why it was there. The word
never got out. It was phoned in, Yeah, from the
back room of a bar down the alley. The friendly
Chap wanted out for a breath of fresh air. Saw this,
ran back to the bar and made his phone call,
bought drinks for the house. He's still celebrating. If you
want to talk to you talked to him. Yeah, friendly
Lush invited me to a cold beer.
Speaker 4: I didn't take him. He knew this man.
Speaker 7: Never had the pleasure. He told him all the citizens
of the alley never had the pleasure.
Speaker 4: I checked, Uh, huh, what's that in near hand? This?
Speaker 1: Oh, I almost forgot.
Speaker 7: It's a ticket for parking, made out to a Charles
crandall over parking the loading zone. He can snap his
fingers at.
Speaker 4: It now, huh.
Speaker 7: This year with he day, Muggivin, I tried Danny days
like this. I guess I don't make it.
