Speaker 7: On a July morning last year, a three time loser
Speaker 7: named Boloslav Babe Stansick made a daring escape from the
Speaker 7: Federal penitentiary at Louisbourg. Sansick was a dangerous killer. Five
Speaker 7: years before he had been turned in by an informer
Speaker 7: named Joseph Riser. During his trial had repeatedly sworn bloody revenge. Now,
Speaker 7: with Stamsick at large, we felt Riser was a living target.
Speaker 7: An all points bulletin was promptly sent out on both men.
Speaker 7: We were confident of one thing. If we found Riser,
Speaker 7: we'd also find stam Sick. Our immediate problem was food
Speaker 7: would find him first.
Speaker 4: So welcome aboard. Joseph's been too long between sevens and
Speaker 4: what have The rope said, Yes, I saved your old cabin. Boy.

Speaker 4: banknotes to myself. We want to wish him a pleasant voyage,
Speaker 4: don't we.
Speaker 1: Back to the targets in just a moment.
Speaker 7: Why do men of our American Armed forces honor a
Speaker 7: code of conduct? General Lawton Jay Collins answered the question
Speaker 7: in this way, we take for granted much too much,
Speaker 7: in my opinion, the freedoms that we have here at home.
Speaker 7: Our system is based on the conviction that you and
Speaker 7: I have a responsibility and a life to live of
Speaker 7: our own, a responsibility to ourselves and a responsibility to
Speaker 7: God Almighty. But I can assure you we must continue
Speaker 7: with the program of checking the spread of communism in
Speaker 7: the world, guaranteeing our freedom of living, in order that
Speaker 7: you and I can enjoy some of these great things
Speaker 7: in this place which we call America. That is why
Speaker 7: the American military man honors a code of condest.
Speaker 1: Back too tonight. Story on the FBI in Peace and War.
Speaker 5: The target.
Speaker 7: Memorandum to the Director confidential in reference our bulletins to
Speaker 7: one O four dash W Babe Stansleick escaped prisoner Police Departments,
Speaker 7: Bays City reports car commandeered at gunpoint by a man
Speaker 7: of this description. Check driver, reliable background, await instructions. Sign
Speaker 7: at Stevens. Hello, Dave, I see miss Gilbert Thomas Randrews.
Speaker 7: I'd like to see him soon as he's free and
Speaker 7: no phone calls please while I'm with Agent Reynolds.
Speaker 5: Sorry, Dave, been waiting long a couple of minutes.
Speaker 6: How did it go?
Speaker 5: In Bay City? Same old story. I'm afraid another dead end.
Speaker 5: Looks like time defeat. That's a long drive. Cigarette. Thanks,
Speaker 5: I could use one at leid. It was no good.
Speaker 7: Huh oh, it was good as far as it went.
Speaker 7: The driver was reliable, as the local boys said so.
Speaker 7: The man who commandeered his car was undoubtedly stamsy, but
Speaker 7: he forced the driver out two miles out of town,
Speaker 7: then ditched the car himself in a sandlot near Millbridge.
Speaker 5: That's as far as I got, a sand lot near Millbridge.
Speaker 5: Not much health, is it? Not much? How about you?
Speaker 4: I don't know.
Speaker 2: Maybe something maybe not checked all those addresses. Uh huh
Speaker 2: at rooming house, Yeah, that's the maybe something.
Speaker 5: What well?
Speaker 2: I showed the landlady Joe Rais's picture. Seemed to me
Speaker 2: she recognized it, but she shot up like a clam.
Speaker 2: The only thing I could get out of her was
Speaker 2: try three B, three B the rear apartment on the
Speaker 2: third flour. Steve was riserho ever.

Speaker 2: tied in the landlady wanted to know who I was
Speaker 2: and what I was doing there anyway. He told her
Speaker 2: I did, and she seemed to relieved. But I couldn't
Speaker 2: get a thing more from her. Better check into it
Speaker 2: further already I am.
Speaker 7: But in the meantime, in the meantime, it looks like
Speaker 7: Stanzick and Joe Riser are one up on us.
Speaker 2: Stansick anyway, I'd say Ryser was one upon him self.
Speaker 2: You think for his own sake he want to cooperate.
Speaker 7: Yeah, you would, But fear is an unpredictable factor, Dave.
Speaker 7: When the man's afraid, he doesn't want.
Speaker 5: To cooperate, even with the law.
Speaker 7: All he wants to do is run away and hide.
Speaker 4: The masso. He's copy the let's have those papers you
Speaker 4: saved from me right here. Copy you are going to
Speaker 4: give Senor Jordie. Yeah, how you say the bad news?

Speaker 4: dollars and food. Man eats like a horse. It's going
Speaker 4: to be very bad, Tomaso. After all, I didn't know

Speaker 4: What's on your mind? Cappy r it's Bill's water. You're
Speaker 4: hand in me. I may be high, but not enough
Speaker 4: to swallow the step of your feet. And what's on
Speaker 4: your mind? You're a smart boy, Joseph.
Speaker 2: I'm smart enough to know you had something cooking ever
Speaker 2: since you stepped in here.
Speaker 4: Well, now it's a little fast. You went dough by
Speaker 4: the time I made a down payment. Right, you have
Speaker 4: been aboard two weeks now, that's what I figured. I'm

Speaker 1: Back to the target in just a moment. You know,
Speaker 1: many great men have attained the highest office in our land,
Speaker 1: the presidency of the United States.
Speaker 5: Can you guess the name of this man?
Speaker 1: He was born in seventeen ninety in the state of Virginia,
Speaker 1: and his life seemed dedicated to his birthplace. As a
Speaker 1: representative of that state, he served as a member of
Speaker 1: Congress and a United States Senator. Later, he served in
Speaker 1: the legislature of Virginia and became governors. He was elected
Speaker 1: Vice President of the United States in eighteen forty.
Speaker 4: One month after he took.
Speaker 1: The oath of office, President William Henry Harrison died, and
Speaker 1: the man of whom we are speaking became our national leader.
Speaker 1: He had not truly aspired to the office, but he
Speaker 1: served well and faithfully during his term. However, he did
Speaker 1: not campaign for an other term. Well you should have
Speaker 1: his name by now, but in case you don't, here's
Speaker 1: one important clue. You'll recall that the campaign slogan of
Speaker 1: William Henry Harrison was typical new and Tyler too. Yes
Speaker 1: he was John Tyler, tenth President of the United States.
Speaker 1: His life is part of your American heritage. Fact Free
Speaker 1: of the Night story on the FBI in Peace and

Speaker 3: I don't want a thing. Just got into part this morning, Joseph,
Speaker 3: make sure and call oh Frida. Hello, Frida you there?
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, I don't think you'd better say anything over
Speaker 2: the phone.
Speaker 3: Could you come up here to your apartment? Well, now
Speaker 3: there's a co instance. I was going to suggest that
Speaker 3: very thing. I can hop in the cat and be
Speaker 3: there in twenty minutes. Twenty minutes, all right, I'll.
Speaker 4: Be waiting, I said.
Speaker 5: See that was the only call. Isn't it enough? Maybe
Speaker 5: all time? Was it recorded three fifteen, little more than
Speaker 5: two hours ago? Go to the apartment?
Speaker 7: Tell you after this call, I may have a better idea. Hello, operator,
Speaker 7: could you get me the Sea Farri's.
Speaker 5: Union on River Street. I don't know the number. Yes,
Speaker 5: I'll hold on.
Speaker 9: Okay, Nick, wait for me here, all right, very come on,

Speaker 4: Joe knows it was me. Who's no difference what Joe knows?
Speaker 4: Mister Stancy, You're not going to do any shooting on
Speaker 4: my ship, this crummy tanker.
Speaker 6: I'm surprised.

Speaker 6: Who's that up there?
Speaker 4: Well?
Speaker 3: Hello, got you cover?

Speaker 4: Lady, it's all right to myself. Wait for me on
Speaker 4: the bridge.
Speaker 6: That's a good idea.
Speaker 10: You'll wait for him.
Speaker 4: Which way down there? Last cabin on the ride. Okay,
Speaker 4: mister stand sick, don't you no? I don't yeh. This way.
Speaker 6: He's in there.
Speaker 4: Yeah, no gun play, right, okay, pop no gunplay that
Speaker 4: when a nice silent switchblade can bring the same results.
Speaker 4: Switch plade, Take me.
Speaker 6: And introduce me, P Well, I can job. I waited
Speaker 6: a long time. Okay, open up?
Speaker 10: Okay, Joe, on your feet, you got all the ready,
Speaker 10: your days to sleep up out of.
Speaker 5: That bunkin you talking to me? Mister?
Speaker 6: What is this kind of a trick?
Speaker 4: No, Joe, I don't know why I do.
Speaker 7: He's in our custody, but we took him off the
Speaker 7: ship just half an hour ago.
Speaker 4: You took him off. Say who are you anyway? What
Speaker 4: you doing about my ship?
Speaker 7: Major Stevens, Captain FBI? And I think you know what
Speaker 7: I'm doing Affoord FBI. That's right, Stansy, I wouldn't try
Speaker 7: using that if I were you. This gun is loaded
Speaker 7: and my medals say I'm supposed to be a crack shot.
Speaker 6: Why yep?
Speaker 7: Yes, and I wouldn't try that either. There's another agent
Speaker 7: just outside and four more out on deck. Now that's
Speaker 7: being smart, Stansay. There's a full moon out tonight. You
Speaker 7: would really make a beautiful target. Although on the train
Speaker 7: back to prison, he made another futile attempt to escape.
Speaker 7: Babe Stanzik was safely returned to Louisbourg and handed.
Speaker 5: Over to the authorities.
Speaker 7: A charge of consorting with an escape fugitive was brought
Speaker 7: against Captain Burkey's but his attorney was able to convince
Speaker 7: a grand jury not to return an indictment. However, with
Speaker 7: Stanzick secure under special guard in an escape proof cell block,
Speaker 7: it is safe to predict he's had his last crack
Speaker 7: at the target.
