I told her he wasn't to work yet. 355 00:21:26,559 --> 00:21:29,000 I started to tell her where Frank lived, but she said, 356 00:21:29,039 --> 00:21:30,480 never mind, she already knew. 357 00:21:30,559 --> 00:21:32,319 Speaker 2: Left then what then? 358 00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:33,680 Speaker 7: What is? 359 00:21:33,759 --> 00:21:34,240 Speaker 2: She left? 360 00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:38,920 Speaker 6: Left Missus Hathaway with a Martinius half mast.

She stayed long enough with the bar tender 403 00:23:50,279 --> 00:23:54,599 to read him her newest poem. But they had an interruption. 404 00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:56,240 Speaker 2: You can reveal that too. 405 00:23:57,160 --> 00:24:00,400 Speaker 4: It will cost me a dear little savings place. I 406 00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:05,319 hadn't mind the interruption. Who was it, lovely frolicsome thing 407 00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:09,200 never been here before?

Can't you understand? 460 00:26:52,359 --> 00:26:54,720 Take your hands off? 461 00:26:55,519 --> 00:26:56,279 Speaker 2: Huh? 462 00:26:56,319 --> 00:26:58,079 Speaker 7: I'm sorry I lost my temper. I didn't mean to 463 00:26:58,079 --> 00:26:58,480 slap you. 464 00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:06,079 Speaker 8: Hard wear man, fat man, bald man. Nothing man.

You said you'd 473 00:27:25,319 --> 00:27:27,960 kill anybody or laid a finger on your wife, as he. 474 00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:31,359 Speaker 8: Told me too, over and over again. That's why you 475 00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:33,920 always followed me, Edward. That's why you followed me to 476 00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:38,279 Frank Dunn's apartment house that night, and Frank wouldn't even 477 00:27:38,319 --> 00:27:40,920 look at me. He sent me away, Edward, and you 478 00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:43,640 killed him all because I spent an hour playing cards 479 00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:47,319 with a hotel manager. I was never with Frank, Edward, never, 480 00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:53,519 but you killed him for me. Go ahead, jump for 481 00:27:53,599 --> 00:27:53,880 the man. 482 00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:55,640 Speaker 2: I followed you. 483 00:27:57,440 --> 00:27:59,960 Speaker 7: I always follow you. I couldn't stand at your seat. 484 00:28:00,799 --> 00:28:03,279 Speaker 8: Take the hardware, man away, mister Clover, you too? 485 00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:08,480 Speaker 2: What for killing Lily? You couldn't have Frank. Lily was luckier, 486 00:28:08,799 --> 00:28:09,759 So you killed Lily. 487 00:28:10,759 --> 00:28:14,480 Speaker 8: Oh No, Edward did that for me too, didn't you, Edward? 488 00:28:16,599 --> 00:28:17,039 Didn't you? 489 00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:17,559 Speaker 9: Edward? 490 00:28:19,440 --> 00:28:23,640 Speaker 7: No, I didn't. I followed you to Lily. Her door 491 00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:27,400 was open, wasn't it. I saw Lily after what. 492 00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:28,079 Speaker 2: You did to her. 493 00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:31,359 Speaker 8: Well, you don't know what you're saying, Edward. Listen to me, 494 00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:33,519 you love me, Edward. 495 00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:37,319 Speaker 13: I'm going to have to sign a confession, Louise, what 496 00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:40,079 I just said about following you to Lilies. I don't 497 00:28:40,119 --> 00:28:43,359 have to admit that, sign my name to it. I 498 00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:47,920 could deny I ever said it. I don't know whether 499 00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:51,720 I will or not. I'll have to think about it. 500 00:28:52,119 --> 00:28:59,160 Speaker 8: I love you, honestly, truly, Edward. I love you. 501 00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:02,039 Speaker 7: Jump, Louise, Chump Jump. 502 00:29:22,799 --> 00:29:23,920 Speaker 2: Broadway's Quiet. 503 00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:24,200 Speaker 13: Now. 504 00:29:24,359 --> 00:29:26,519 Speaker 2: It's the four o'clock in the morning hour, the hour 505 00:29:26,599 --> 00:29:30,079 without color. But in a while dawn we'll dip down 506 00:29:30,160 --> 00:29:33,359 and they'll be fury again, and roar again, and crowd 507 00:29:34,279 --> 00:29:38,240 the restless, wandering. The puppet danced, the running after nothing 508 00:29:38,279 --> 00:29:45,279 at all. It's Broadway, the gaudiest, the most violent, the 509 00:29:45,319 --> 00:29:49,680 lonesomest mile in the world. Broadway My Beat. 510 00:30:03,079 --> 00:30:06,640 Speaker 3: Broadway's My Beat stars Larry Thor as Detective Danny Clover, 511 00:30:06,759 --> 00:30:10,400 with Charles Calvernes Tartaglia, and Jack Khrushian as Mugavin. The 512 00:30:10,440 --> 00:30:13,319 program was produced and directed by Elliot Lewis, with musical 513 00:30:13,359 --> 00:30:17,319 score composed and conducted by Alexander Courage. In tonight's story, 514 00:30:17,359 --> 00:30:20,599 Mary Jane Croft was heard as Louise herb Butterfield as Edward, 515 00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:23,960 Joe Granby as Milt Barker, Edgar Barrier as Neil Tracy, 516 00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:29,519 and Gladys Holland as Lily Procosh. Just once around the 517 00:30:29,519 --> 00:30:32,160 Clock aboard the second hand for Singing Again, an hour 518 00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:34,839 of comedy, music and cash for the CBS listener who 519 00:30:34,839 --> 00:30:37,799 can identify the phantom voice. Jan Murray is your host. 520 00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:40,799 Judy lenn Allendale, the Riddlers and Ray Blocks apply the music. 521 00:30:41,079 --> 00:30:43,720 Stay tuned now for Singing Again, which follows immediately over 522 00:30:43,759 --> 00:30:46,880 most of these same CBS stations. Bill Anders speaking, this 523 00:30:47,039 --> 00:31:15,559 is CBS, the Columbia Broadcasting System. 524 00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:12,519 Speaker 1: Welcome back. I love the Hawaiian Bar. It's not something 525 00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:15,319 that you'd think of when you think of New York City, 526 00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:19,920 but of course New York has Hawaiian restaurants because they 527 00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:23,279 have all types of restaurants, and they did a good 528 00:31:23,400 --> 00:31:26,799 job of bringing it to life. And I love Danny's 529 00:31:26,799 --> 00:31:29,839 excess line, which is a clever nod to the closing 530 00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:34,559 narration of many films about Hawaii. Very well done. And again, 531 00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:37,839 this whole thing is a little different, but nonetheless feels 532 00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:42,079 very grounded within the world of broadways. My bait and 533 00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:48,400 highlights the sheer variety of businesses that operate around there. 534 00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:52,759 And we turn now to listener comments and feedback, and 535 00:31:52,799 --> 00:31:56,519 we start out on Spotify where Mechanics sixty six starts 536 00:31:56,559 --> 00:32:01,400 out with some sage advice for one, Gino Tartan writing, Gino, 537 00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:05,680 you're not supposed to squeeze the buns, and also notes 538 00:32:05,799 --> 00:32:09,480 I heard her Butterfield play at loose two parts, and 539 00:32:09,519 --> 00:32:12,799 of course we got to hear her Butterfield is one 540 00:32:12,799 --> 00:32:18,519 of the killers today, and I hope that Gino Tartaglia 541 00:32:18,680 --> 00:32:21,640 mends his ways so we can once again hear more 542 00:32:21,680 --> 00:32:25,920 about the Zimmerman buns. And then on YouTube, ryansar comments 543 00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:30,960 regarding the Eleanor Corbett murder case. These shows are captivating 544 00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:34,200 because they are so dark. Howard mcnehir plays such a 545 00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:37,400 great weirdo. He is great to listen to. Thank you, 546 00:32:37,440 --> 00:32:40,039 Adam for all you do well, thank you so much, 547 00:32:40,319 --> 00:32:44,680 and glad you're enjoying the series. And then I had 548 00:32:44,839 --> 00:32:53,480 speculated a few episodes back whether these detectives ore Taglia 549 00:32:54,559 --> 00:32:58,920 was mentioning were real or not. And a listener comments 550 00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:02,960 on the Charles Cram murder case, this might just be 551 00:33:03,119 --> 00:33:08,400 my interpretation, but I've always thought that in universe, Mike 552 00:33:08,799 --> 00:33:14,519 Hammer aka Mike Shrack and the British Girl Detective are fictional, 553 00:33:15,039 --> 00:33:19,240 but Tartagley doesn't realize that and thinks they're real. Danny 554 00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:24,559 presumably knows they're fictional, but can't bring himself to disillusion 555 00:33:24,640 --> 00:33:28,680 his friend. Yeah, I have mixed feelings. On one hand, 556 00:33:28,799 --> 00:33:32,359 I kind of like that bit of Headcinon and I 557 00:33:32,400 --> 00:33:36,839 hope it's true. On the other hand, it would be 558 00:33:37,079 --> 00:33:39,559 kind of scary to live in a world where you 559 00:33:39,559 --> 00:33:42,599 could be that far out of touch with reality and 560 00:33:42,799 --> 00:33:47,599 somehow get promoted to sergeant of police. But thanks so much. 561 00:33:47,799 --> 00:33:51,319 I appreciate the help with that. And we have a 562 00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:56,599 new comment over on the listener survey. Love the show 563 00:33:56,680 --> 00:33:59,880 and the host commentary. Well, thank you so much.

Well, I did 577 00:34:36,320 --> 00:34:38,679 her a couple of favors once when I was working 578 00:34:38,679 --> 00:34:41,239 for her husband, she was still married to him. She 579 00:34:41,320 --> 00:34:43,239 was going out with the guy she liked on the side, 580 00:34:43,280 --> 00:34:44,639 and she was up with this guy once and I 581 00:34:44,639 --> 00:34:46,440 saw him together. She asked me not to say anything, 582 00:34:46,480 --> 00:34:49,079 so I didn't. Before she got a divorce, I used 583 00:34:49,079 --> 00:34:50,880 to cover up for her all the time. She never 584 00:34:50,920 --> 00:34:51,360 forgot it. 585 00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:53,639 Speaker 3: I guess how about when you saw her in her 586 00:34:53,679 --> 00:34:54,800 office tonight franchise? 587 00:34:54,840 --> 00:34:55,840 Speaker 5: You've seen him all right to you? 588 00:34:56,159 --> 00:34:58,960 Speaker 14: Yeah, same as ever. Ask her if she could lend 589 00:34:59,000 --> 00:34:59,920 me a five, and she did. 590 00:35:00,199 --> 00:35:00,800 Speaker 2: I left. 591 00:35:01,119 --> 00:35:03,480 Speaker 14: It was about a quarter after six. I guess anyone 592 00:35:03,480 --> 00:35:05,480 else in the office when you left? Yeah, I was 593 00:35:05,519 --> 00:35:08,280 a guy waiting in the little reception room there.
