Speaker 1: Welcome to the Great Adventurers of Old Time Radio from Boise, Idaho.
This is your host, Adam Graham. In a moment, we're
going to bring you this week's episode of Counterspy. But
first I do want to encourage you. If you're enjoying

today's program is brought you apart by the financial support
of our listeners. You can support the show on a
one nine basis. Support Dot Great Detectives dot net and

dot net. Well, now we're going to get into today's episode,
which is one of those titles I'm not a particular
fan of, but I'll talk a little bit about why afterwards.
More importantly, though, this episode does mark the start of
a street of consecutive episodes in circulation. And this is
a big deal because heretofore, we've brought you fourteen episodes
spread with throughout the first three hundred and eighty four
episodes aired, so we'll get more of a sense of
what it was like to listen to the series. At
least if you were listening in nineteen forty nine. But
let's go ahead and now from August ninth, nineteen forty nine.

mat Hi you good morning, you win, Steve, take off, Larry.
I have been telling mister Marango what pals you only
Vince Dubien.
Speaker 6: Where Vince was a Greek guy.
Speaker 7: Yes, it was an unfortunate accident, Larry, wasn't an accident.
Mister Moringo, that rotten dog just shut vinced.
Speaker 2: I understand the Connor spy has already picked up the
guy who killed Vince from the description you gave him. Yeah,
character named Sid Bollow. All I need now is for
you to pick the guy out of the lineup. I'll
never forget that kill his face. I'll pick him out,
all right, Larry, maybe you won't pick Barlow out.
Speaker 6: Why wouldn't I hang it on? Follow?
Speaker 2: If he's the guy, tell him, Steve, Larry. Three years
ago a can got out of the state jug in
Ohio after a stretch from manslaughter truck accident. Yes, he
comes here to Pittsburgh, changes his name to Larry Mason,
and gets a job with our company as truck driver
under false pretenses.
Speaker 6: How did you know?
Speaker 2: Also, Larry, last year you married a very lovely girl.
I'll say, But of course you didn't tell Carol about
your prison term. Didn't you listen to Carol doesn't know?
Hurt her? Hey, Larry, Harold doesn't have to know, don't
you see, mister Morango, nobody asked to know to Larry.
Speaker 6: So that's the setup, Steve.
Speaker 2: It's a quarter to nine. We will drive Larry down
to the countess by field office. Mister Harding will be
waiting for it. Mister Harding, here's Larry made mister Hay,
good morning Larry to down here, repeaters me.
Speaker 6: Yes, there's our.
Speaker 2: Lineup room, Larry. In a few seconds, several men will
come out on that platform up there behind glass sid
Barlow among them, I want you to pick out the killer. Yes,
the lights are so arranged that we can see the men,
but they can't see us and they can't hear us either. Conway, Yes,
mister Hoddy already Conway. You can send them on, Yes, sir, okay, boys,
you want it on stage? There they are, Larry. Well,
the second man from the left looks something like him.
Take your time. Well, I'm not positive, now, you know.
Speaker 6: I only when we saw the killer from the side
just a.
Speaker 2: Minute, Conway. Second man from the left turned to the right.
Second man from the left turn to the right.
Speaker 9: He seems taller. You see the man you described to
us the other day. Well, I'm not so sure now
you know it was dark that night. There is Vince
Stugan was your closest friend. You have a deep personal
interest in bringing his murderer to trial.
Speaker 2: Sure. Sure, But there's even more to this case. Recently,
a number of trucks carrying natropintuline, a powerful explosive, have
been hijacked. Yes, that's what we were carrying the other night, Larry.
We suspect that some big international ranketeer is shipping the
stolen explosive to a dangerous anti American group in the
Far East to make all kinds of international trouble. Yes, sir,
I see now, if you can point out the killer,
you will be helping us smash a dangerous international racket. Now,
can you identify one of those men as the murderer
of Vince Steuben? Mister Hoddy, he he's not there, not
the one who killed Vince Stupen. Mason, your original description
of the murderer was an amazingly exact one, in detailed.
You were eager to see him punished. I'd like to
know what's changed your mind. All right, Mason, you can go. Yeah, Larry,
this is Steve. I left the message for you to
call me. That's no meta date for you with mister Marengo.
You had better come eight o'clock tonight in his penthouse apartment.
I'll pick you up.
Speaker 6: Larry.
Speaker 2: I want to thank you for not identifying Barlow yesterday
at the Countress by Field Off.
Speaker 6: Keep your thanks Marengo.
Speaker 2: Larry, that's no way to act at the Marengo. There's
nothing to talk about, Steve. You two got what you wanted.
That was the deal, Yes, Larry, that was that deal.
Now I have a new deal for you. Chance to
make some real del Larry, not them easily tell you
get for pushing the truck around for our company. Unsatisfied,
nothing so stubborn as a reformed convict. The is, Larry.
I am scheduling here to take a lot of explosives
for the company tomorrow night to another arsenal at Bay
City alone. That powder don't get today city. You see, Larry,
some of my men will be waiting to meet your
truck in the highway at the Marengo. And it all
set up. Larry. All you do is take one on
the chin to make the high tack look clean.
Speaker 6: Nothing doing. It's no deal, Maringo.
Speaker 2: I paid you off. I did what you wanted one
do Larry? What about David hiding?
Speaker 6: Honey?
Speaker 2: What do you mean, Larry? You did a very bad
thing when you took the finger off, said Barlow. You
the next calm, deliberately deceived, hurting you see, you have
to accept my offer. My man will expect you tomorrow night.
What does that up, Peter, Larry Mason's taking a load
of explosives to the Bay City arsenal tonight, Dave alone.
It's a perfect situation for Mason to allow himself to
be hijacked. But do we allow it?
Speaker 6: Dave tell you what.
Speaker 2: We'll set up observation posts all along Mason's route now, besides,
you tail him in a car, take at least three
more men armed for a capture if necessary. I'll keep
in touch with all of you from the communications room.
Speaker 8: Mister adding Conway, reporting from Greenvale Drop driven by Larry Mason.
Stop here at eleven thirty five PM while he was
cleaning his lights, and I checked his phenometer reading twenty
two thousand, one hundred fourteen.
Speaker 2: Miles in veil, eleven thirty five driving time checks, many checks.
Speaker 8: Thanks, Conny, I'm supporting from fine city, mister Honey. Very
Mason's time here one o five am phenometer reading Conny
good dollars three hundred and sixty seven.
Speaker 2: Time and many check. And Adam Peters and three men
are tailing Mason's sucking a car ready for a couple
if it comes, keep an eye out for them.
Speaker 4: Peter is call me, honey, pursuing car.
Speaker 8: Something up?
Speaker 2: What is it?
Speaker 6: Why?
Speaker 8: Kind of your car? The main highway?
Speaker 2: What's your location? Now?
Speaker 8: Good road often leading up into the mountain.
Speaker 2: That's an even better spot for a plan. Hijacking in
the highway, Peter, keep following, keep me in form.
Speaker 10: Peter, Honey.
Speaker 4: Run of the Bay City, throwing out into them.
Speaker 2: You mean nothing unusual happening on long detour he took
through the mountain. The driver doesn't take a truckload of
high explosive on a dangerous detour just for the thrill.
Take close to him. Let's see what he does next. Dave, Hey, Dave,
wake up. Oh I dozed off my chair waiting all
my for you to come again. What are you doing
back here in Pittsburgh? I telled Mason all the way
back from Bay City. No trouble. Admittedly it looked like
a hijack set up at first, but knowing happened, he
came back, left his truck in the main garage and
went home. Larry Mason is a very puzzling young man.
You don't have to find some way of unpuzzling him.
What there?
Speaker 6: Sorry? I woke you, Carol, you.
Speaker 2: Larry, you kid? You wouldn't be back in then city
until tomorrow.
Speaker 6: Well, we have no phone here.
Speaker 2: I couldn't call you, darling. What are you doing? Where's
my suitcase? It's in your car?
Speaker 6: Then I'll get it, Larry, what's wrong?
Speaker 2: I'm just taking my clothes.
Speaker 6: Larry, Please?
Speaker 2: What happened? Larry?
Speaker 6: You're in trouble.
Speaker 2: There's no trouble.
Speaker 6: I'm just fed it with Pittsburgh. That's not true.
Speaker 2: You're running out on me, aren't you, Carol?
Speaker 6: Karen?
Speaker 11: Honest, Honey, I wasn't running Listen, Carol, I'm in a jam.
Speaker 2: See.
Speaker 6: I have to get out of Pittsburgh now tonight. I
don't care what it is. If you just tell me, well,
there's no time to tell you. Will you come with me, Larry? No,
I will old times not to have a phone.
Speaker 7: Look, I'll go down to the question the airport and
get tickets now fast. All right, you pack, grab a
taxi and meet me at the airport.
Speaker 6: As soon as you can.
Speaker 11: And don't worry, honey, Everything's going to be fine, just fine, Jessey.
Speaker 6: Jasey Creston airport driver?
Speaker 9: Please?
Speaker 6: Will you help me with some suitcases that they're on
the porch?
Speaker 2: Mason going someplace?
Speaker 4: Well?
Speaker 6: Yes, who are you care? Just a minute?
Speaker 2: I told you to get out, okay, palace, go let
me out of here. Do you hear?
Speaker 6: Where where are you taking me?
Speaker 3: What do you want?
Speaker 2: I want you to give a message to your husband.
What a special kind of message, mister Mason. Kind your
husband will understand. What are you talking about this, Mason.
The next time your husband is told to do something,
it's got to be done right, no side roads, no standards.
Next time he delivers or something fatal will happen to
you again too. That's the message, now, missus Mason. Just
make sure he gets the message.
Speaker 6: Straight back to counter spy in a moment.
Speaker 2: But first, pets Nicola, pets the glasses.
Speaker 6: That's a lot lots more value, lots more dest Why
take less when petsi is dead?
Speaker 3: More and more among fellows and girls, among mothers and dads,
you hear that sane and sensible question. Why take less
when pepsi is dead? No budget, no allowance ever had
a better friend than Tangy's sparkling pepsicola. Because one big
twelve out pepsi bottle gives you two delicious drinks. That's
twice as much tangy taste, twice as much delicious pepsi
to go just twice as far. That's why more and
more families say, why take less when Pepsi's bet? Yes,
family is like yours and mine family's all over America.
They're all saying, why take less? When Pepsi's bet.
Speaker 2: Pepsi calls so delicious, and this bottle makes two drinks.
It is certainly the cola for the purchaser who thinks everybody's.
Speaker 4: Thinking Pepsi does compare it with the rest.
Speaker 6: So what, Mrs Homas Spiner? Why take less?
Speaker 3: When Pepsi says today tomorrow, always get America's biggest cold
up at you take home a carton of six big,
big Pepsi bottles. Insist on Pepsi at the store and
say Pepsi at the fountain, Say Pepsi at the fan,
Say Pepsi whenever you reach for refreshment.
Speaker 6: Remember why take less? When Pepsi's bed Now back to
Compers five.

Speaker 10: Are Oh, Larry, huh oh, mister mister Huntings and that
carra over there he wants to talk with Well, I'm sorry,

Speaker 2: Mister Hunting said he wanted to talk to you. Okay,
all right, get him. Oh Larry, I'm afraid you're not
leaving town. Larry. What I saw you buy two plane
tickets ten minutes ago.
Speaker 6: So you saw me buy tickets? That a crime?
Speaker 2: Larry, you're a material witness in a murder case. I
could have you held in companty with this. Yes, I
guess you could, but I'm not going to. Instead, we're
going back to your home. When we get there, you
and your wife and I my wife.
Speaker 6: She's got nothing to do with all this, Larry.
Speaker 2: A few hours ago we received certain files. They explained
some of your recent actions. Now I want you to
be completely honest with me, like what right along?
Speaker 6: Larry?
Speaker 2: We not only want to clean up his hijack case

Enjoy some pepsi Ice told the Knife.
Speaker 6: Welcome back.
Speaker 1: Well, the reason I don't like that title that has
been given to it is it's a hijacker's committing blackmail
rather than a blackmailed hijacker. But at any rate, an
interesting episode and our criminal's biggest step it was pushing
this truck driver too fast and too hard, because essentially,
by being willing to lie to cover up his past conviction,
he showed that he could be blackmailed. But it's a
big leap from refusing to identify a suspect to actually
participating in a crime yourself, and I think that he
was not ready to make that late. Now, of course,
he probably would have ended up dead as a result
without the timely interference of David Hardy. Well, now we
do turn to listener comments and feedback, and we turned
to Spotify, where Don Wright seems like Harding can solve
this by problem by rounding up every very attractive female
he can fined. I need to go back and count
how many fem fatales have been there have there been
in this series. It's a lot and this was from
the case of the Mexican Rancho. But it's a funny
comment I guess to read on this episode as it
is one without any female villains.
Speaker 6: But I mean, certainly there's a point.
Speaker 1: I would say that the fe fatale as this very
big motif was hardly limited to counterspyt I think we've
heard it on nearly every program we played on the
Great Detectives, and certainly Counterspy isn't like on the Pat
Novack for higher level, so very common to the era.
And then we have some comments on YouTube or regarding
the episode. The Recruited Nurse listener writes, Hi, mister g
thanks again for another great episodes. PS.
Speaker 6: The commercials are so interesting. Well, thanks so much, and
Saysoft Rights had him.
Speaker 1: In addition to the bad guy who sounds a lot
like Chuck Webster, the doctor sounds a lot like Raymond
Edward Johnson. That would fit considering this is a New
York production. Well, thanks so much, say SOFF. And I
will admit that I'm not entirely sure because Raymond Edward
Johnson I did actually have a lot of voices that
he did, so it's so I might pick up on
one or two of them, particularly if I would if
I've been listening to something familiar recently. I remember that
I noticed Raymond Edward Johnson on an episode of Boston Blackie,
just because I'd happen to listen to an episode of
Crime Club, which he also hosted. But appreciate your comments.
