Speaker 1: Night Beat.
Speaker 2: Hi, this is Randy Stone. I cover the night Beat
Speaker 2: a Chicago star. You know, stories start many different ways,
Speaker 2: but this one began modestly enough, with a zero and
Speaker 2: a typewriter. That's right, cipher, not nothing, but to one
Speaker 2: man of Chicago's four million, that's zero meant death.
Speaker 3: Night Beat, starring Frank Lovejoy as Rudy Stone.
Speaker 2: Mine is a funny kind of a job. When that
Speaker 2: evening sun goes down, I start walking through the dark city,
Speaker 2: peering into bleak alleys, wandering through the bright kneon, listening
Speaker 2: to the sounds of a city at night, the whisper
Speaker 2: of footsteps, the shattering roar of an llow train, the
Speaker 2: sob of an ambulance siren. I wander up the boulevards,
Speaker 2: down the back street, searching for something in the dark city.
Speaker 2: And what exactly is it that I seek? Brother, It's
Speaker 2: something more elusive than the farthest star. I seek the
Speaker 2: city's heart. Tonight, I must have walked for miles, the
Speaker 2: cold wind off Lake Michigan had living with my ribs
Speaker 2: and the hot breast of my deadline biting into my neck.
Speaker 2: Then ahead of me, I saw that friendly oasis in
Speaker 2: the darkness. Benny's all night beanery, otherwise known as Tomain junction.
Speaker 2: Throwing caution into the winds. I started through the door
Speaker 2: for a couple of clucks.
Speaker 1: Operator.
Speaker 2: Nobody around but Benny polishing the counter and this little
Speaker 2: blonde yapping excitedly into the wall phone near the door.
Speaker 2: Please hurry, such devotions. Somebody should get that excited over me,
Speaker 2: Missus Warren.
Speaker 4: Yes, we were just connected. Has he come home yet,
Speaker 4: Missus Warren?
Speaker 2: Ohya, Benny, how's the bikarpenter kick?
Speaker 3: Oh?
Speaker 1: Hi, you Randy.
Speaker 5: You always say that, but you keep coming back, letting
Speaker 5: the punishment.
Speaker 1: You got to find him, You got to get her.
Speaker 1: What's with her? Benny?
Speaker 5: On twenty five call? She makes like that twenty five times.
Speaker 5: She gets the same answer twenty five times. She comes
Speaker 5: over to get more. Nichols, business is good. Huh yeah,
Speaker 5: a hole in the head. What's in it for me?
Speaker 5: Making change?
Speaker 1: All?
Speaker 4: Give me some change, please, Nichols.
Speaker 2: Lady, sooner or later I gotta run out.
Speaker 1: This is it. I gotta have some I don't make
Speaker 1: him here, lady, now, will you please change quarters?
Speaker 4: Done?
Speaker 2: I'll let me take a look to see if.
Speaker 4: I have any Oh yeah, please do hurry, please, hurry.
Speaker 1: Reaching Randy. Make what the catch?
Speaker 2: He's passion out? Oh easy, lady, easy? How cold coffee? Benny?
Speaker 1: Quickly? It's one thing I'll say.
Speaker 2: If Gabriel's trumpet doesn't succeed in waking the dead, all
Speaker 2: they've got to do is send for some of Benny's coffee.
Speaker 2: After I got a couple of SIPs down the girl's throat,
Speaker 2: she started coming out of it, tears rolling down her face,
Speaker 2: her whole.
Speaker 1: Body trembling with sobs.
Speaker 2: Come on, not stop it, honey, stop it.
Speaker 4: What happened to me?
Speaker 1: You passed out? But good? What time is It was
Speaker 1: nine forty five.
Speaker 4: I've got to find him.
Speaker 2: I just got to I'll not take it easy. You're
Speaker 2: still shaking. Now, come on, have a few more SIPs
Speaker 2: of this so called coffee. No, no, well, if you
Speaker 2: think Benny's coffee is bad, you want to try his hamburgers.
Speaker 4: I've just got to find him.
Speaker 1: Who have you got to find?
Speaker 4: The man?
Speaker 2: Quite man, the man I killed. Ask a foolish question,
Speaker 2: you got a foolish answer. Only before I could ask
Speaker 2: any more questions, a little lady was on her way
Speaker 2: out of the place. I looked at Benny, just to
Speaker 2: make sure he'd heard the same thing I had. He
Speaker 2: had heard. His mouth was hanging open, like somebody had
Speaker 2: taken off her hinges. I left the bean room and
Speaker 2: started after the girl. First I thought i'd lost her,
Speaker 2: and I saw a sagging against the side of a
Speaker 2: building under the elevator tracks on deer horse.
Speaker 1: She saw me.
Speaker 4: Come, who do you want?
Speaker 1: Oh, I'm just an old busy buddy. I don't know
Speaker 1: what to do.
Speaker 4: I'm going crazy. I should come missus one again. Maybe
Speaker 4: he came home.
Speaker 2: Man, are a man you killed?
Speaker 1: Huh?
Speaker 2: Well that makes sense. Now listen, Oh.
Speaker 4: You don't understand. You just don't understand this.
Speaker 2: You can be sure.
Speaker 4: I've got to find him.
Speaker 2: I've just got to You've killed him, but you've got
Speaker 2: to find it.
Speaker 1: Yes, I must go.
Speaker 4: Please please let me go.
Speaker 1: I'm not holding your kid.
Speaker 4: I don't know where to turn.
Speaker 2: You don't want to go any place? Do you you
Speaker 2: want help?
Speaker 1: All right?
Speaker 4: Here it is I don't know.
Speaker 2: My name is Stone. Now that we're formally.
Speaker 4: Introduced the newspaper columnist.
Speaker 1: Well Man's got to read.
Speaker 4: Maybe you can help. Maybe you can, mister Stone.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but first I got to know why you keep
Speaker 2: calling the home of the man you killed to see
Speaker 2: if he's gotten in yet.
Speaker 1: This is slightly confused.
Speaker 4: All right, I'll tell you. My name is Ruth Baker.
Speaker 4: I'm receptionist and secretary for doctor Stanley.
Speaker 2: Loring, a specialist.
Speaker 1: Yes, go ahead.
Speaker 4: There was a man Philip Warren. A week ago he
Speaker 4: saw doctor Loring for an examination. Today this afternoon he
Speaker 4: came back for the report. I was in the outer
Speaker 4: office when mister Warren left the consultation room. He looks strange, stranger.
Speaker 6: Will you give me a cigarette?
Speaker 1: Miss Baker?
Speaker 4: Oh, certainly, mister Warren. Here, there's a lighter on the table.
Speaker 1: I don't want a cigarette. Was there?
Speaker 4: Is there anything wrong?
Speaker 1: Hey? What time have you got? Three fifteen?
Speaker 2: You're a minute slow?
Speaker 1: All that for the minute is important.
Speaker 4: Very important if you're going to catch a train.
Speaker 1: No, it's always important.
Speaker 4: Yes, I suppose it is.
Speaker 1: Oh, yes, you know.
Speaker 6: I've lived all my life that way, paying attention to
Speaker 6: time being punctual.
Speaker 1: My wife considers it a nuisance, do you.
Speaker 7: I'm afraid I hadn't thought I should.
Speaker 6: Everyone should tie If you thought how many different ways
Speaker 6: one tells time? It can whisper in an hour glass?
Speaker 6: Or tinkle in the tiny little clock, or it can roar,
Speaker 6: or yes, all my life has been important to me.
Speaker 6: Now he won't tell me when all he says is
Speaker 6: some time. That's not fair, mistaken, it's not right.
Speaker 4: Mister Warren. Perhaps you'd better lie down.
Speaker 1: Oh no, no, no, I've got several things to do, many things.
Speaker 1: In fact, I see you don't. But that doesn't matter
Speaker 1: at all.
Speaker 6: You know, in my office I can hear the chimes
Speaker 6: of the clock and the tower above me.
Speaker 1: I've always listened to them.
Speaker 6: I like them because time is important. But I never
Speaker 6: heard them chime midnight midnight. I guess midnight is a
Speaker 6: special time. It's either tomorrow, it's a day.
Speaker 1: It's it's in between.
Speaker 6: Tells a man that the day is over, another one's
Speaker 6: going to begin. It's like standing on the edge.
Speaker 1: Goods, goodbye, miss Baker.
Speaker 4: Yes, doctor miss Baker will please right away.
Speaker 8: Warren comments, Yes, he just left, doctor Loring. Yeah, it
Speaker 8: was certainly unexpected. I was almost certain it wasn't that serious. Well,
Speaker 8: what does examination report back when you?
Speaker 1: Yes, sir, the clause file, mispaker?
Speaker 4: The closed Yes, Oh I'm sorry.
Speaker 8: What was it any inoperable condition?
Speaker 1: Oh?
Speaker 4: Now, I see, see what mispeaker, Why he acted so strangely.
Speaker 2: Oh, don't worry, he'll go home.
Speaker 8: Think about it. When the first shock wears off, you'll
Speaker 8: accept it. What else can you do? What else can
Speaker 8: anyone do?
Speaker 4: After that, I went back to my desk. Mister Stoner,
Speaker 4: I was checking my file, said, come on with what
Speaker 4: I made a mistake. How horrible mistake was well? When
Speaker 4: a patient comes in for examination, only doctor Loring knows
Speaker 4: his name. The technical laboratory has only a number, a
Speaker 4: number on a card. Mister Warrens was five one two nine.
Speaker 4: I type it wrong. I type five one.
Speaker 2: Two zero, the quiet number of another patience.
Speaker 4: It was a mistake. I've put mister Warren's name under
Speaker 4: the wrong laboratory number. The number of us of a
Speaker 4: man who whispering to die.
Speaker 2: Certainly, doctor Long, I'll be able to tell if Warren went.
Speaker 4: Just a routine check up would indicate symptoms. It took
Speaker 4: actual laboratory work to make certain.
Speaker 1: I see, he'll kill himself.
Speaker 4: He's that kind of a man. And if he does,
Speaker 4: I've killed him, murdered him. And if I don't want
Speaker 4: to live, I'll kill myself.
Speaker 1: Not Come on, come on, love, there's no time for that,
Speaker 1: does doctor Lorning?
Speaker 4: No.
Speaker 2: I told him right away, and he tried to reach Warren.
Speaker 4: Oh, I've been trying since his afternoon, at his home, everywhere.
Speaker 4: He must have gone home first, because he left.
Speaker 2: His wife a note suicide. Not yes, Ruthie. Come on,
Speaker 2: let's go the Warren's home, and if he's not there,
Speaker 2: I will well. Chicago's a big city. You'll be tough
Speaker 2: finding one man among four million people, but we can
Speaker 2: try it.
Speaker 7: I found a note when I got home, mister Stone.
Speaker 7: I knew Philip went to see doctor Loring.
Speaker 4: But I didn't.
Speaker 2: Just the note and nothing else. Missus Waring, you called
Speaker 2: the police right away.
Speaker 1: Of course I did.
Speaker 2: And you haven't left this apartment, not for a second.
Speaker 4: Didn't he phone try to get in touch with you
Speaker 4: at all? Miss Baker? He did not.
Speaker 7: And if my husband isn't found before he killed himself,
Speaker 7: I'll say to it.
Speaker 4: That you will tell you what was a mistake. Anyone
Speaker 4: could make a mistake, mistake.
Speaker 7: To make a man believe he's gonna die in horrible pain. No,
Speaker 7: that's no mistake.
Speaker 4: That's murdered. L Carla is kind of murder.
Speaker 1: Don't get out of here and leave me alone.
Speaker 2: Wait a minute, missus Warren, I crucify this kid because
Speaker 2: she made a mistake that could happen only once in
Speaker 2: a million.
Speaker 1: Years to my husband. Leave me alone. You want to
Speaker 1: find him, don't you.
Speaker 4: Well, now, what kind of a question is that?
Speaker 2: A nice? Reasonable question? You want to find him?
Speaker 1: All right? Help us?
Speaker 4: But what can we do? By midnight? You he'll be
Speaker 4: dead the not he left said soul.
Speaker 2: Someone's at the door.
Speaker 4: It might be here.
Speaker 1: I'll get mister Warren. Warren, why not, Paul? Yes?
Speaker 4: What did you find out?
Speaker 1: Nothing?
Speaker 9: I checked every precinct station between here and the Oak
Speaker 9: Street beach.
Speaker 4: Paul.
Speaker 7: This is mister Stone and the girl who I see,
Speaker 7: Paul is a friend of Phillips.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, there's nothing you said. No one's seen him,
Speaker 2: and no suicide report out his.
Speaker 4: It's ten now, we've got two hours to find you.
Speaker 2: And that bothers me. Why should he choose exactly twelve
Speaker 2: o'clock to die?
Speaker 7: If you knew my husband, you'd understand why the ticking
Speaker 7: of the clock was the most important thing in his life.
Speaker 4: You could set your watch by his schedule.
Speaker 7: Up at seven thirty in the morning, never seven twenty
Speaker 7: eight never, seven thirty one, seven thirty breakfast to ten minutes.
Speaker 9: To herm Are we having time to worry about Phillips
Speaker 9: City or Sinker? He's right now. We've got to find him.
Speaker 9: As the young lady said, we've only got two hours.
Speaker 9: Try to think the way he would. What does he
Speaker 9: do for those two hours? Where does he go? What
Speaker 9: does he want to see?
Speaker 7: He's lived all his life doing things exactly.
Speaker 2: The same way.
Speaker 1: That's all. Well, that's something. What are you getting at Stone? Well?
Speaker 2: I was just thinking, nobody ever, let's go of life
Speaker 2: without holding on to something else. Nobody knows whether you
Speaker 2: can take a memory with you or not. Maybe it's
Speaker 2: just a face, a melody, a favorite place. Nobody knows.
Speaker 2: But we like to think. So Philip, go ahead. What
Speaker 2: were you going to say?
Speaker 1: Oh?
Speaker 9: Look, Philip would want to die exactly as he'd live,
Speaker 9: knowing exactly when and where.
Speaker 2: That's what I mean, Missus Warren. I want a list
Speaker 2: of every place your husband might go.
Speaker 4: But I'm telling so there are so many places.
Speaker 2: One hundred thousand. What's the difference? Write them down. I'll
Speaker 2: go with your Stone. No, No, you stay here with
Speaker 2: missus Warren. Somebody's got to be here if he shows
Speaker 2: up and step on it. With that list, Missus Warren
Speaker 2: got a lot of places to cover.
Speaker 1: By midnight.
Speaker 2: If we haven't found him, then we can cut our
Speaker 2: list down to one place. The County Morgue.
Speaker 3: Night Beat stars Frank Lovejoy as ranby Stone.
Speaker 2: Find one man out of four million people, find one
Speaker 2: place out of a thousand square miles of city, and
Speaker 2: do it in two hours, one hundred and twenty minutes.
Speaker 2: A long chance compared to our job. A buck on
Speaker 2: the Irish sweepstakes was money in the bank. We had
Speaker 2: two things in our favor. One, Missus Warren had called
Speaker 2: the police a thousand cops at Warren's description to Warren himself.
Speaker 2: The way he lived was a clue to the way
Speaker 2: he might die on time punctuary. But where the first list?
Speaker 2: The first place on this list was a little restaurant
Speaker 2: where he saw some times eight They knew him there.
Speaker 1: All right, mister Warren. Yes, I know he has.
Speaker 2: He been in here tonight?
Speaker 1: Tonight?
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, tonight.
Speaker 1: I assu you don't know, mister Warren. Very well.
Speaker 2: Mister Warren comes here on Tuesday evenings only.
Speaker 1: This is Monday cross off.
Speaker 2: One place, go to the next. Yes they knew mister Warren. No,
Speaker 2: he hasn't been in tonight. This is Monday. He comes
Speaker 2: here only on Fridays, grab a cab and hurry on,
Speaker 2: watching the minutes go by, watching Ruthie die a minute
Speaker 2: at a time, telling her no matter how bad we
Speaker 2: were doing, the cops'd find him for sure. The cigar
Speaker 2: store where he stopped for cigarettes missed him by an hour.
Speaker 2: The news reel theater su're an old customer, but he
Speaker 2: comes on Wednesday for the new weekly show. Ruthie wanted
Speaker 2: to call missus Warren again to see if the police
Speaker 2: had found him yet, but no time. Forty minutes gon
Speaker 2: an hour lost going down the list, I can't before, No,
Speaker 2: not right now. Listen to me. Every night a man
Speaker 2: stops by here. His name is war Oh I know
Speaker 2: what about him?
Speaker 4: Well? Has he been here tonight?
Speaker 3: Sure?
Speaker 1: Hey, what gives with that guy? What do you mean? Oh?
Speaker 5: Any other night he's buy here six o'clock shop tonight
Speaker 5: he comes past half to ten, buys.
Speaker 1: A paper, a late edition. You've never done that before.
Speaker 1: In fact, I never seen him after sick. Which way
Speaker 1: did he go?
Speaker 2: Did he say anything to you?
Speaker 5: Not?
Speaker 2: All?
Speaker 5: He does is buy the paper walk away, and then
Speaker 5: he throws the paper away like he don't want it
Speaker 5: in the first place.
Speaker 4: Which way did he go?
Speaker 1: Straight up Michigan? In that way you got to admit
Speaker 1: its on you.
Speaker 2: Yes, I admit it, I admit it. Thank you, come
Speaker 2: on to have you move? So he went straight up
Speaker 2: Michigan Avenue.
Speaker 1: That away.
Speaker 2: All we accomplished was to lose another five minutes of
Speaker 2: our time, and brother, when it came to time, we
Speaker 2: were really scraping bottom. Those other loving cops were becoming
Speaker 2: more important by the second. One by one, we kept
Speaker 2: scratching names off the list. The cafeteria where we sometimes
Speaker 2: stopped for coffee, but not tonight. The drug store where
Speaker 2: we stop for stamps, but not tonight. Then the last
Speaker 2: place on the list, the very last, a little cocktail
Speaker 2: ounge on Michigan Avenue, one of those she Shi joints
Speaker 2: where the lights are so soft and low you can't
Speaker 2: watch the bartender watering the booze. Our two hours, we're
Speaker 2: just about all used up. Hep you, sir, I'll pal
Speaker 2: if you can.
Speaker 1: Nobody else can I figure part.
Speaker 2: I'm looking for a man named Philip Warren, you.
Speaker 1: Know, and koyeah, Yeah, quite well.
Speaker 8: I consider mister Warren one of my special customers.
Speaker 2: He had a nipe. What are you ask We don't
Speaker 2: have time for anything but yes and no answers, please
Speaker 2: yes or no.
Speaker 8: I really don't feel I'm at liberty to discuss with
Speaker 8: complete sprout.
Speaker 4: Then it's not gonna work. We're not gonna find it.
Speaker 1: Something wrong with mister Warren.
Speaker 2: But to put it mildly, yes, no, come on call
Speaker 2: if you'll tell me why you want to listen, please,
Speaker 2: it's not really proper to tell just anyone who happens
Speaker 2: to him. Quiet, un, Let's we find him in the
Speaker 2: next fifteen minutes. Warren is going to die.
Speaker 1: Good joke.
Speaker 2: Look at this girl here, Warren dies shield never mind,
Speaker 2: look at her face and tell me I'm joking. Oh
Speaker 2: all right, I didn't know.
Speaker 8: Mister Warren's a good customer, you know, two strangers as
Speaker 8: he was he in here, and.
Speaker 1: How long ago he came in a little while ago.
Speaker 1: I thought it was strange, you know, because he's late.
Speaker 8: It's always comes in promptly five thirty never mind the details.
Speaker 1: How long ago? About ten minutes ago. He's not at
Speaker 1: the usual place. But then he didn't drink his sherry.
Speaker 1: You know where he went? No? No, I don't.
Speaker 2: Did you see him go?
Speaker 4: Oh?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I saw him leave, all right. Don't think has
Speaker 2: he ever said anything about going anywhere from here? No?
Speaker 1: No, no, he was always very quiet. Oh but I
Speaker 1: think his office is me?
Speaker 2: What makes you think that?
Speaker 1: Well?
Speaker 2: He mentioned once he always leaves it at five thirty
Speaker 2: and he makes thank you? Where's the phone near the entrance?
Speaker 5: Some one?
Speaker 1: Ruth?
Speaker 2: Thank you?
Speaker 4: What is it? Mister? What did you think of?
Speaker 2: He got his home phone number?
Speaker 4: Yeah, written down here? Than why are you calling you?
Speaker 1: I want to know where his offices?
Speaker 4: But why?
Speaker 2: All his life punctual, methodical? Everything to him was a habit.
Speaker 2: Maybe it's a crazy hunch, but I could be right.
Speaker 2: He could have gone to his office.
Speaker 4: Yes, you could be right.
Speaker 1: Come on, come on, answer to answer.
Speaker 4: They've gotta be there. They said they'd stay.
Speaker 1: But they don't answer. Roster.
Speaker 2: You remember where his offices must be on your records.
Speaker 4: I don't remember it, but we can go and get it.
Speaker 4: Try it again.
Speaker 2: They're not there. I told him to stay there. The fools.
Speaker 2: I what the phone directory might have a business listening
Speaker 2: for him? One and Warren one one cool Philip worn
Speaker 2: Is it no? Only his home phone? The number I
Speaker 2: just called, mister Stone.
Speaker 4: If missus Warren isn't home, she might have gone to
Speaker 4: the police. Maybe they found him.
Speaker 1: That could be it.
Speaker 2: Keep your fingers crossed that they found him alive.
Speaker 1: Well, where Randy Stone? Stupid around this precinct for stories?

Speaker 2: That last cocktail Arne, the bartender said Warren came in
Speaker 2: every evening for five point thirty five. That he left
Speaker 2: his office at five thirty. That makes his office a
Speaker 2: five minute walk from the cocktail lounge.
Speaker 4: Ken, and what he said to me, Remember what he said.
Speaker 4: He liked to sit in his office and listen to
Speaker 4: the chimes from the tower above.
Speaker 2: Is often tower tower, five minutes from at cocktail.
Speaker 1: Lounge on Michigan Avenue.
Speaker 4: Look, look at the avenue.
Speaker 2: The Wrigley Building, the clock in the Campanelli tower, Ruth,
Speaker 2: that's got to be it. We've got ten minutes to
Speaker 2: get there and find the office cabbin Wrigley Building fast.
Speaker 2: The red in the traffic lights didn't mean a thing,
Speaker 2: but it still took us three minutes to get to
Speaker 2: the Wrigley Building. When we got there, the hands of
Speaker 2: the clock in the Campanili tower pointed to seven of twelve,
Speaker 2: and as we looked up, the larger hand crossed out
Speaker 2: another minute of Warren's life. One more went by before
Speaker 2: the night watchman heard me counting up the doors, and then.
Speaker 1: He opened it. Hey, hey, let's look.
Speaker 2: My name is Stone, Chicago Star. Yeah, let's give you
Speaker 2: the right chapond on door. Please please just listen. Does
Speaker 2: a man named Philip Warren have an office in this building?
Speaker 1: No, he ain't got no office. Are you sure? Of course?
Speaker 2: I'm sure man named Warren works here? Philip Warren sure
Speaker 2: works for Western Re Did he come in tonight? Stop
Speaker 2: asking questions? Please, We've got to find him, and he'll

Speaker 2: All right, all right, we'll sign it. Just take us up, okay, go.
Speaker 1: Do you use afraid elevator? The regular ones don't run
Speaker 1: at night, not this show.
Speaker 2: I don't care which one we use. Just get us
Speaker 2: up to Warren. I stopped looking at my watch while
Speaker 2: at freight. Elevator droned its deadly way up to the
Speaker 2: floor where Warren had his office.
Speaker 1: And then at last we were there Western Research officers
Speaker 1: right down.
