more solemn and morally minding.
Speaker 3: The first the answer to the question.
Speaker 1: Do you take this man to love and to cherish,
to honor, and to obey in sickness and health, as
long as you both shall live and the other? The
Hippocratic oaths this phrase in particular, whatsoever house I enter there,
will I go for the benefit of the sick, refraining
from all wrongdoing or corruption, and especially from any act
of seduction. Our mystery drama, The Edge of the Scalpel,

Brewer is a Budweiser. I'll be back shortly with at one.
Speaker 3: Somebody still cares about quality to the Budweiser people. That's
a lot more than just words. It's a commitment to
continue brewing Budweiser the way it's always been brewed, with care,
with pride, without compromise, And it's a promise to everyone
who enjoys great beer.
Speaker 1: That there's one thing they'll always be able to count
on that one of a kind.
Speaker 3: Beechwood age Budweiser taste, a taste that speaks for itself,
loud and clear.
Speaker 1: Hear it talking, And when you say that, you can
say you can.

in New York City. I was born and raised here.
You're listening to Pat Harper.
Speaker 6: He is an anger woman on the Channel eleven ten
o'clock News.
Speaker 1: As a New Yorker living again in New York is
that New York is a composition of many small towns.
We walk down into Chinatown, or we go down into
Little Italy, or we walk anywhere in New York City.
Maybe I'm prejudiced because I'm a New Yorker.
Speaker 7: Let's face it, any given day we live is not
just terrible terminal things.
Speaker 2: We're sitting there.
Speaker 6: That's Joe Harper, anger man on the Channel eleven ten
o'clock News.
Speaker 2: I have to get more of balance into the news.
A lot of good things happen.
Speaker 7: I think we ought to be screaming to the high heavens,
how about how great this city is in a lot
of respects.
Speaker 1: I think it's one of the few news shows that
allows you to walk away from it feeling pretty good.
Speaker 7: Joe Harper and Pat Harper, anchorman and anchor woman on
the Channel eleven News at ten o'clock.
Speaker 1: The edge of the Scalpel. This is the story of
a surgeon who walked it, who poised it above his
deadly rival, literally holding the life of the man on
the operating table in his hands. Let us follow the tall,
gaunt man there, who looks ten years older than his
thirty eight years, whose aging face still retains the good
looks and the mark of a spoiled and petulant youth,
who walks slowly leaning on a cane for support to
the main nurse's desk at Guardian Hospital.
Speaker 5: Excuse me, I want to see Nurse Steward, Nurse Carrie Stuart.
Speaker 8: Oh, Nurse Stuart has has duty for another three quarters
of an hour if you want to walk over to
the waiting room.
Speaker 5: Walking is not my strong shuit, as you can see.
Will you ask her to come down here or put
her on page?
Speaker 8: Oh?
Speaker 1: I can't page a nurse or she won't mind. I'm
her husband, always bless me? How do you do, mister Stewart,
How do you do? Nurse McGrath?
Speaker 3: You know me?
Speaker 1: Why not?
Speaker 5: It's such a loving little family here at Guardian Hospital,
isn't it.
Speaker 8: I think your wife is still operating with doctor Malcolm.
Speaker 5: That's exactly what bothers me. I'll be waiting for her
right by the elevator as soon as she's ready to
see me. Thank you for saving another patient for me,
Doctor Malcolm.
Speaker 1: Thank you for the correct diagnosis, Doctor Kawalke. We make
a team. We all make a team, right, Carry, Kirk?
What would you do without her?
Speaker 3: I'd hate to speculate, Dad, or have you speculated?
Speaker 1: Oh? Come on, Kirk, My reputation is the hospital Afario.
It is all gossip. I play field with you and carry.
It's a different now here's the elevator. Carry to join us. Nope,
three's a crowd and we'll get it. Carry is my
surgical nurse? Selly about that?
Speaker 8: He didn't mean anything.
Speaker 1: Maybe it's my guilty conscience. Coffee, a nurse and a doctor.
No protocol is no problems with the chief of surgical Services.
I elect decied the command. Coffee. I'm used to obey.
I wish that were you, Kirk, don't.
Speaker 8: Please you never know who.
Speaker 5: My surprise, Carrie, your loving if lame husband.
Speaker 1: Two? Uh, what brought you here? A question?
Speaker 5: Maybe I should be asking.
Speaker 1: Hell, I'm mister Stewart not to see you again?
Speaker 8: Well, doctor Malcolm.
Speaker 5: At the moment, I feel like the usual third wheel.
Obviously you are happy about something special, the.
Speaker 8: Most fantastic operation Joe Kirk, Doctor Malcolm just saved a
man from certain death.
Speaker 1: I don't think your husband is interested in hospital small talk.
Small talk with a miracle. A miracle.
Speaker 5: Oh, I hope, I'm not interfering with it.
Speaker 1: The miracle has already taken place. I was just asking
your wife to my office. They have a cup of coffee.
Won't you join us? I'm afraid I.
Speaker 5: Can't unless it's for some special consultation. No, no, Perhaps
I could be allowed to steal my wife away.
Speaker 1: You can scarcely steal what is your own? Just do it,
if you'll excuse me, certainly? Did you have to go
out of your way to be rute?
Speaker 8: Was I?
Speaker 1: Oh? I didn't notice, sir. But could I sit down
for a moment? Of course you can. You shouldn't be
on your feet this much anyway? What brought you out here? Loneliness?
Speaker 5: Sick of looking at nothing but four walls? So I
took a bus and ended up downtown feeding the pigeons.
Speaker 1: Well, that's a nice thing to do, but not to
the point of exhaustion. I feel they're my kins.
Speaker 5: They walk as clumsily as I do. Only they have
wings to spread and fly.
Speaker 8: Joe, why do you fight the operation that could help you?
Doctor Malcolm tried to explain.
Speaker 5: I'd like to forget Kirk Malcolm, and he'd be the
last person I'd be likely to tell. I'm scared out
of my skull of an operation. Kerry, drive me home.
Speaker 1: I can't. I'm still on duty. Well can't you beg off?
No way, we're short handed, back in the same old circle.
Everyone has a duty but me. You have one. Go
back to work.
Speaker 8: You know there's always room in advertising for your talent.
Speaker 1: Joe. Please, I should be back on the operating floor.
Why did you.
Speaker 5: Come here not to spy on your carry? Whatever you think?
Just that my legs gave out. I couldn't face the
bus ride home.
Speaker 1: Excuse me carry, but oh I'll just call down for
you emerge.
Speaker 8: Oh thanks Mac, I'll be right up.
Speaker 1: Oh I'm sorry to chuck it in your lap. Joe,
hear the keys. You take the car, I'll take the bus.
If only we could go back to where we started, Carrie.
Speaker 8: It was good, wasn't.
Speaker 1: It, Yes, Joe, But look I cannot talk now. I've
got to go a busy little breadwinner.
Speaker 5: But just hang on to one thought, lover, I'll never
be satisfied with the crumbs.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's carry Joel.
Speaker 8: I won't be able to make it home for dinner.
Speaker 5: Can you manage, oh, my greatest talent, I manage to
manage somehow. Where are you spending the evening with one
of your doctor buddies.
Speaker 8: It's an emergency operation to try to say, the young.
Speaker 1: Boyd leg Oh, how noble?
Speaker 5: Will the great god Malcolm perform another miracle?
Speaker 8: I don't know.
Speaker 5: None of us knows, which is exactly why you'll never
get me near an operating room.
Speaker 1: They never know. None of them dies.
Speaker 5: Way at least I have two legs, not very serviceable,
but there in an emergency.
Speaker 1: I may be very late. Don't wait up for me.
Don't try to protect my feelings.
Speaker 5: I ended being less than a whole man a long
time ago.
Speaker 1: You should be very proud of what you did for
that boy, Kirk. If it works in the long run,
we can all be proud dead such modesty. Don't you
love him for it? Carrie? I respect him, Doctor KOWASKI.
Speaker 5: Right, I should choose my words more carefully. Well, I'm
off I have an angel waiting for me in the wings.
Speaker 8: Oh my goodness, what is it the time I gave
Joe the car. I've got to dash if I'm to
catch the last bus.
Speaker 1: No need, I'll drop you off if you want me to.
Speaker 8: All right, there's so many things are I'll meet you
at the doctor's entrance in ten minutes. I thought inviting
you to dinner might help you understand the well the
way things are.
Speaker 1: You mean with Joel? What can you do with a
man who refuses to take advantage of what surgery might
do for him?
Speaker 8: Convince him that it can.
Speaker 1: He's scared, Kirk.
Speaker 8: He needs to find somebody he can place all his
trust and face him.
Speaker 1: I'm scarcely the man for that.
Speaker 5: Now.
Speaker 8: You almost managed to convince him last night.
Speaker 1: Is that the only reason I was invited? You know
it worked?
Speaker 2: Oh?
Speaker 1: Carry donning, Kurk. I'll let it right on a line. Carry.
He's afraid he wouldn't be able to hang on to
you if you knew he didn't need you anymore.
Speaker 8: He has every right to hang on to me as
long as he wants.
Speaker 1: He is not a little masochistic.
Speaker 8: I was driving the car when.
Speaker 1: He first got hurt. That has nothing to do with
his condition. Now. He has Larcia's syndrome, a deterioration of
a lower aorta.
Speaker 8: I checked it out with Helen, and here's to say
that wasn't an aftermath of a back injury. But that anyway,
there are other reasons, Kirk. I made a vow when
I married him, in sickness and in health.
Speaker 1: I can't break that. And somehow, in this day and age,
it seems well. I mean, I love you, Carrie, and
I know you love me. Yes, I do. But I guess, Kirk,
I'm just uh old fashioned, and I suppose the timing
couldn't be more perfect.
Speaker 8: Your homes thank you for delivering me right to my door.
Speaker 1: You're an important package. I'm the best loved surgical miss
I've ever had.
Speaker 8: Professionally, we make a team. You were wonderful tonight. You
are wonderful.
Speaker 1: Oh how I wish very I I apologize for that.
Speaker 8: You should. It has no future. M huh, joe, Ah,
you startled me.
Speaker 5: I just thought i'd uh throw a little light on
the subject. I gather it was a successful operation.
Speaker 1: Uh, it'll be a year before we know that for sure.
Speaker 5: Funny, I thought you'd already gotten far enough to predict resolve.
Speaker 1: Joe.
Speaker 8: I don't quite know what you mean, but I do
know I don't feel like matching rapiers tonight. I am
tired and I wanna go to bed.
Speaker 1: I'm not stopping you. Good night, Joe.
Speaker 5: Aren't you gonna kiss me good night too? So you
saw I've been waiting all evening and watching.
Speaker 8: Well, I didn't mean anything, or if it did, it
was an end, not a beginning.
Speaker 1: Whatever you say, Carrie, good morning, Miss the Grass.
Speaker 8: Any problems the there's nothing I can't handle, doct your Malcolm.
Speaker 1: How's the little boy? So far? It's only his own? Oh,
and we have an identity for him now I understand
what the name is sentenced?
Speaker 8: Couldn't his parents are wakened in your office? All right,
there's some reporter's waiting to see you too.
Speaker 1: Why not?
Speaker 5: You're famous morning, doctor Welski, and indeed you are, doctor Malcolm.
Speaker 8: Oh, you must be.
Speaker 1: Very proud of what you accomplished last night. Balance is out?
Oh mac as nurse you were checked in yet No,
she called in earlier to say she'd be denayed. Her
husband didn't feel it well? Oh anything serious? Oh, she
didn't say any message we can give her. Why, No,
it's a personal matter. I'll be in my office with
Tim's parren.
Speaker 5: Now what kind of a personal matter would you suppose
exists between Kerry and Kirk Malcolm.
Speaker 8: Sure, if it were common knowledge, it couldn't be very personal, now,
could it?
Speaker 1: Meaning? Mind my own business? Huh? You said it, doctor not? I?
Speaker 5: Well, it is sort of my business because doctor Malcolm
is my friend.
Speaker 1: Mac. You know the hospital better than anyone. You've been
here longer. But I gave with a corner stone. Are
there rumors going around without carrying?
Speaker 8: But I didn't plant the grape Biden, and I feed
it no nourishment.
Speaker 5: All I'm worried about is that any hint gets to
the iron Duke upstairs. If Old Hadley up an administration
knowses out what's being whispered around, we could lose doctor.
Speaker 1: Malcolm and carry. I wouldn't want to see that, oh,
nor me.
Speaker 8: I stayed home because I'm your wife, John, not my choice,
not because you love but out of duty. I didn't
say that.
Speaker 1: You didn't have to, maybe because it isn't.
Speaker 5: True what he might be a little ashamed after last night.
Speaker 1: I told you that the curded chapter.
Speaker 5: I doubt it. Why don't you admit you'd give anything
to be rid of me? What good am I?
Speaker 1: I can't support you. I can't even make love to you.
Speaker 5: I'm a husband in may. Only, if I had any guts,
i'd walk out of your life. Only I'm not very
good at walking either. That's something that could be fixed.
How under your surgical boyfriend Scalpel?
Speaker 1: No, thank you.
Speaker 5: I wouldn't give him the chance to dispose of me
so easily.
Speaker 8: That's a terrible thing to say, and a terrible.
Speaker 1: Thing the two of you are doing to me. I
may be no damn good, but you're my wife, and
that's what you're going to stay. Joe, Joe, Joe, What
is it? Pain? The pain? Joe again? Maybe you'll get
your wish after all. But you hear this, Gary, You
get me my own doctor, or I'll haunt you the
rest of my life. An intriguing situation, woman struggling desperately
to live up to her marriage vows committed by her
conscience to a man she does not love and a
surgeon in whose hands may be placed the life of
this man. There are gathering factors which could end his
career as he found himself accused not only of negligence
but murder. I'll return shortly with that too.
Speaker 8: Ooh, I thought, I tell your pretty tack, I do tee.
Speaker 9: You pretty tach Hi. I'm mel blank And that's another
of my thousand voices. And that's why they asked me
to tell you about lemon mint lesterine lozenges, Because what
your throat is hot and dry from a cold, they
make it feel cool and shoes and Lusterine's anesthetic medicine
helps give fast, temporary relief from minor sore throat pain.
Lemon mint lusterine lozenges. No matter how many voices you've got,
you've only got one throat.
Speaker 1: So get listening logenges, folks.
Speaker 6: He was only as directed is Ralph player better honors
mister Ian know where they are, Ralph. Whatever became of
Edwin Loudie, the inventor of the bridge lamp.
Speaker 3: Oh?
Speaker 6: Yeah, so he's well up in his nineties now, but
he still works every day taking chain link fences apart.
A listener would like to know whatever became of a
young daredevil named Warner Bromley who flew his zeppelin upside down. Yes,
he once tried to fly his zeppelin upside down through
the framework of the Eiffel Tower.
Speaker 2: What's he doing now?
Speaker 6: He inflates with the balloons for the government. All right,
just try and know where they are. How about Stuffy Hodgson,
Calvin Hoogevian, Jimmy Schwab, Fred Falvey and Mary Backstage. Oh,
they're all to be found on the pages of the
new Bob and Ray book. Right if you get Work,
along with Wally Blue, Tippy the Wonder Dog, and many
more fascinating characters. That's right, if you get work the
best of Bob and Ray at your bookstore now. Incidentally,
Edwin Loudy claimed he invented the bridge lamp, but he didn't.
Speaker 2: Well, he's in his nineties now.
Speaker 10: I don't see any point in reopening that controversy.
Speaker 1: Everyone into.
Speaker 11: Welcome to the Bahamas, the country of seven hundred islands.
I'm Captain Henry Pie from a Bahama's air the Bahamas
Own Airline, and I'd be pleased to show you our islands.
I can fly you to colonial style nasts or Paradise Island,
or to swing Freeport Lucaya to the Luthra where the
pineapples grow or to Bemony, where the fishing is fantastic.
Every one of our Bahama islands is a whole different experience.
Speaker 1: If you choose your favorites.
Speaker 7: And I'll fly you THEREA flights leave every day for
the Bahamas, the country of seven hundred islands.
Speaker 1: Shouldn't you be on one of them?
Speaker 4: See your travel agent or call tool three eight o
oh three two seven O seven eight seven Bahamma's Tourist Office.
Speaker 1: Now the real suspense begins, the ultimate suspense in our world,
the fight to save a human life. As the door
to the emergency room opens, Carrie turns toward it, her
face drawn and strained. A nurse and orderly wheel Joel out,
now mercifully unconscious. Doctors Kirk and Kowalski follow quarterly take
missus Stewart's room four one six, Doctor GOWALKI will be
in charge for the moment you want him prep for surgery.
Did you get through to doctor Helen? Yes, he sprained
a wrist two days ago playing squash.
Speaker 8: He can't handle it.
Speaker 1: Who else do you want?
Speaker 8: I don't know anyone.
Speaker 1: Oh, the prep said that we had on a surgeon.
Make sure there's an o are available and a surgical
team can do. But Chief, I don't think keeping the
patient waiting, Doctor GOWALKI, yes, sir, let's go inside for
a moment's nurse letter sit down, Kerrie. Been a rough
morning for you.
Speaker 8: You don't know how rough. He'll never forgive me. I'll
never forgive myself.
Speaker 1: It's hard your fault he had this attack? Isn't it
after last night? He saw it? You know? Oh? I'm
sorry about that? Yes, so am I. I can't help
thinking I'm responsible. Maybe we'd better stick to fact medical fact.
Have there been any other chute attacks like this? No,
just chronic leg cramps, nothing like this. Even guess what
it might be, can't you? A trombosis, probably on aneurysm.
An arteriogram would show that. What does it matter? Easier
means an operation as it's indicated. However, if it is
a clock he might pass it. But the trouble with
a Laris syndrome is how much it has narrowed the
whole wide junction of the terminal aorta and the iliolarteries.
It could cut off the blood supply Towa'd likes m.
To keep him from losing them, we'd have to go
in and put a shunk past the blocked area. That's
what I tried to explain to him the other night.
Speaker 8: I wish you'd convinced him.
Speaker 1: How do I hasn't his own doctor of a recommended surgery.
He's been trying to get him to let doctor Hallam
do it for the last three years. There are other
effects from a lariche syndromes. I have to put it
as simply as possible. Doesn't he ever want a child?
I don't know, do you? Yes? But not?
Speaker 8: Oh, it's so many things. The way I was brought
up is the accident with the car. Everything Joel gave.
Speaker 1: Up for me, what did he give up for you?
Speaker 8: Cause his mother wanted him to marry somebody else. She's
a vindictive old woman. She'd cut him out of her
will and refused to see him after we were married.
Speaker 1: He sounds well off without.
Speaker 8: Her, that's just the trouble. He was very well off
with her. I didn't know that when we were married
that most of his income was an allowance from her.
He never dreamed she'd cut it off. But all of
this doesn't matter. Joel's health comes before anything. Kirk with
doctor halen out, I don't know who else to call in,
he suggested doctor Rosson.
Speaker 1: No, no, he's too old for it, and.
Speaker 8: There's nobody else here at the hospital but doctor McNeil,
and I think he's awfully young for her.
Speaker 3: He wouldn't want the responsive, nor would I allow him
to take it as cheap surgeon.
Speaker 1: Now, will you operate? Ah, let's see how it goes.
If the situation is an emergency and you can convince
him to sign the waiver for me to operate, I'll
perform it. Pony one. I'm sorry if I woke you,
mister Stewart. Every two seconds someone does. Uh. The worst
is over. We've taken all the necessary tests. What's the verdict.
I'll let doctor Malcolm answer that. Doctor Malcolm, Oh.
Speaker 5: Yes, I I am ah acquainted with him, and he's
acquainted with my wife.
Speaker 1: Uh so am I I'm doctor Kulowski. By the way,
I've heard of you.
Speaker 5: Your wife's most ardent admirer. Nice try, doctor, Not the
most ardent though.
Speaker 1: Hm. Uh, she's quite a woman, pretty calm. An opinion
around you, doctors.
Speaker 5: I gather one you share, Oh I do I also
share another one that seems quite prevalent. What's that that
she's much too wonderful a woman to be wasted on
a helpless invalid.
Speaker 1: Isn't that what her colleagues say?
Speaker 5: I've uh, I've never heard anyone say it as to
your being a helpless invalid.
Speaker 1: That isn't accurate in a sense. What happened to you
this morning may turn out to be your lucky break
in what sense? Well, you could have.
Speaker 5: Gone along for years with a chronic circulatory condition. Now
that it's acute, something has to be done about it.
An operation, that h that's up to doctor Malcolm. Oh no,
my friend, it is not only over my dead body.
Speaker 1: Now's the patient, doctor Gilowski. Just uh, fair, doctor Malcolm,
forgive me Carrie. That's all right.
Speaker 8: I wanna know.
Speaker 1: Okay, this is right to the roots.
Speaker 5: There's advanced claudication in the lower extremities. I'd say immediate
operative procedure is indicated.
Speaker 1: Does my husband degree? I didn't tell him directly. I
said that was up to the surgeon. Well, then let's
settle it right now. Why don't you have a talk
with him first? Carrie?
Speaker 8: Alright, but you do feel it's an emergency, doctor Kwofski,
I know, damn well it is. Then I'll prepare it thanks.
Speaker 1: Who is going to operate, sir? I am if mister
Stewart agrees, missus Stewart I asked me to. Oh, well,
he's in pretty poor general health. He might not come
through I know, but if he isn't operated on, he
could lose one or both of his legs or his life. Look,
why stick your neck out? A surgeon sticks his neck
out every time he takes that knife in hand. I'm
the only surgeon in his hospital or presently available. It's
best stuited for the job. Anything else you want to say,
Doctor Kilofski, No, sir, except good luck.
Speaker 5: What will they do carry stop the pain? Or or
can they really put me all the way back to what.
Speaker 1: I was before? It's every chance they can. You pleased
at the prospect. Why wouldn't that be, Joe?
Speaker 8: I want to see you healthy and complete so you
can walk out on me at last.
Speaker 1: You should know me better than that.
Speaker 5: Okay, okay, okay, you win. But first, if I agree
to an operation, do you promise never to leave me?
Speaker 1: I promise. Huh. Then let's get doctor Hallum and get
this over with. Hallam. Who isn't he the surgeon.
Speaker 12: He sprained his wrist he's not available, Well, then who
else the finest surgeon you could want right here in
this hospital?
Speaker 1: Malcolm?
Speaker 5: Yes, you think I'd let him touch me. It's a
man who wants you every bit as much in the
world as I want you.
Speaker 8: Where a surgeon is concerned, there are no emotions involved,
But where love is concerned, there is nothing else.
Speaker 1: I can only judge this by myself.
Speaker 5: Can I tell you if I were in his spot
and had the chance, the pain I.
Speaker 1: Can't help me carry? Oh, I am in such terrible pain.
Help me, doctor Malcolm. You're sure we should go through
with this. You are the internist. You know that it's
crucial and the time is the main criterion. Well, suppose
you lose him? Why should I The actuarial figures there
are five percent mortality under normal commissions, but with complications.
I'm a surgeon, not a mathematician. You'll need a little
briefing on this one. Doctor Glaski and the rest of
us were scrubbing up. It's an unusual operation, so we
will put it on closed TV. I don't think I
have to go into any details here. We'll wait for
the operating theater. Blood pressure two hundred over one twenty.
I don't like that. Still, there was bound to be hypertension.
How long were we going to be doctor Malcolm? Not less
than three hours, is my guess. It could be twice that,
ask doctor Frost on anesthesia. If he can hold him, Nurse,
let me see your instrument tray. You can switch on
the closed circuit TV now. For most of you observing
this operation, this will be your first experience with a
Lariche syndrome. The patients involved is at a critical stage
since a large thrombus or blood clot is cutting off
the main circulation to the interior organs and the lower extremities,
so operative procedure is mandatory. Is everyone ready? Doctor walk ready?
Doctor Malcolm? Very well? Nurse skin knife, Nurse, I am missus.
Speaker 8: Choke Stewart, My son has been up you Hello, mother Stewart, Yes.
Speaker 1: Me, it's same old stand Never mind you. What about Joel?
Is he all right? He's on the operating table right now.
How could you wouldn't know it? It wasn't a matter
of allowing it. He has a thrombosis.
Speaker 8: It is life.
Speaker 1: He had a life before he met you. Who is
the surgeon?
Speaker 8: May I ask doctor Halen? Doctor Hallum had an injury,
he wasn't able to operate.
Speaker 1: Didn't he suggest a replacement? Yes? But but what mother? Stuart?
Speaker 8: Please look, come with me to the nurse's lounge just
down the hall. I'd like you to see just what
it is that's involved. I am less interested in that
than in who is handling things. I thought you didn't
care about us any more. Substantially correct. I don't care
about you, but when my only son is a death doll,
I feel I had to return to make sure he
was getting the best of care.
Speaker 1: How did you know about Joe?
Speaker 12: He called me to say he was in excruciating pain
and was being taken to the hospital.
Speaker 1: He was afraid for his life. What does that mean?
Exactly what it says? Who is operating? And now that
the superimposed problems has been removed, we can see the
poor condition.
Speaker 8: Of the doctor Maltram on the TV in the best
surgeon available to save Joe, the one person my son
called me and begged me to save him from.
Speaker 1: Oh that's ridiculous.
Speaker 8: I mean doctor Malcolm will do everything to say this.
Speaker 1: Morgan.
Speaker 8: Did Joel sign an agreement to have doctor Malcolm operate?
Speaker 12: Who did? I?
Speaker 8: Did you he's in.
Speaker 1: The best of hands. We'll see about the mother steored.
I wish you would something's happening on the race to pop.
We'll like it above it. Then by reduction we've run
into a complication. A break in the intima or the
inner wall of the artery is letting blood under pressure
into the media. If they should rupture the outside wall,
the patient could be lost.
Speaker 5: What are you planning to do?
Speaker 8: I've heard and seen all I need, so no, I'll
tell you what Joey told me.
Speaker 1: He was afraid that somehow you and doctor Malcolm were
going to maneuver him. Under doctor Malcolm's.
Speaker 8: Nothing, he couldn't be in better hands that it's a
matter of opinion.
Speaker 1: I'm going to try to put him back on it.
Speaker 6: I just want to walk.
Speaker 12: If anything happens to my boy, I'll have no interest
in the civil case.
Speaker 1: It will be criminal all.
Speaker 12: The way, John Doe, and I will name doctor Malcolm
who has broken up your marriage for premeditated murder, and
you as accessory both before and after the fact.
Speaker 1: In the operating theater, the drama of life and death
is played out according to established rules, or is it?
And watching the drama, two women are as completely involved
as if the instruments were in their hands. I'll return
shortly with Act three.
Speaker 8: You've been a nice to know.
Speaker 13: You'll make them to see the things you want to esteem,
the tides.
Speaker 1: To hide you me speople to know you're all that
can be.
Speaker 13: Believe in the free spirit department. Umick's mid size nineteen
seventy sixth Century has a lot going for it. Efficient size,
lots of rooms, neat things like that. But Century offers bonuses.
It's a Viewick remember, which says one heck of a
lot about how nicely it takes care of you. And
Century does something for the sake of efficiency that no
other American mid sized car does.
Speaker 1: It comes to that V six.
Speaker 13: Engine and a Buick B six of that Century, that spirital.
Speaker 1: Movie pleases gone.
Speaker 3: We are all a little leery of the dark. That's
why some lonely night you will be glad you bought
a Delco battery, a Delco quality battery with instant starting
power Delco batteries, some lonely night, you'll be glad you
bought one.
Speaker 4: Enter the ac Delco Energizer Sweepstakes. When a Holland America
cruise for two at Wescoe off a supply one thirty
nine Nasau Avenue at the Chunicipal Levard in green Point.
How long has it been since your car had a
tune up? If it's been too long, it could cost
you money money for gas now, money for expensive repairs later.
Save yourself some money with a tune up at your
Long Island Oldsmobile dealer. The dealer who handles quality AC
Delco parts and is un all over the island, service
reliability drive in soon to your Long Island olds Wheel
Network dealer for a tunak with AC spark plugs and
delcoppoints and commencators. The line dealer in Freeport is Addie
Oldswybil and in Great Neck it's Belgrave Motors.
Speaker 1: The scene is a commercial bank in New York State.
A trust officer is listening to his client explained that
he no longer wants to manage his money himself. Really understand,
I've managed my money myself over thirty years, like doing it,
but now well we'll be traveling a lot. I can't
be worrying about dividends on the golf course. Is there
some way there's a trust not part of a will?
Or I've already arranged.
Speaker 3: No, not part of a will, a living trust, or
an investment management program.
Speaker 1: I see you don't mean one of those in trust
for joint savings accounts. To you, I believe in investing.
Speaker 3: Our investment people manage your money as you would manage
it yourself. Take care of all the day to day details,
and you'll probably find the fee is tax deductible.
Speaker 1: Now if I've known that a couple of years back, well,
now you know, asked see a trust officer next time
you're in your local commercial bank to help protect your
family's future. A message from the Trust Division of the
New York State Bankers Association. A high point of drama,
suspense piled upon suspense, conflict on conflict, watching on closed
circuit TV of the wife of the patient whose life
rests in the hands of the surgeon, and with her
the patient's mother, to whose biased, bitter, horrified mind her
son appears to be helpless. I won't it stop.
Speaker 8: You can't do that. This is Joe's chance to become
a whole man again or a dead one.
Speaker 1: I want it's stopped.
Speaker 8: There is no way we can now to be quiet
of us.
Speaker 1: After consultation, we have decided to continue with the operation.
The object now is to bypass the degenerated artery is
by means of artificial ones. I am aware that there
is some risk to the patient. He admits it, but
as surgeon, I assume that risk has justified in the
overall picture. If you kill him, I'll make you pay
comple I am now making the incisions in the wall
of the aorta to receive the plastic ducts that will
bypass the degenerative condition observed earlier, a condition which, of
course we cannot repair. I make you both pay you
mark my word. An ashesiologist reports he's throwing premature beats,
Doctor Malcolm, and I'm almost finished. He's on the edge
of cardiac arrest, and let's hope he doesn't go over it.
I need five more minutes then we can close. It's
going to be a long five minutes, sir. If I
can buy those for him, I can buy him a long,
healthy life. It's got to be worth.
Speaker 12: How much longer do I have to wait here till
someone tells me whether my son.
Speaker 1: Is alive or not.
Speaker 8: Either, Stuart, you know he's alive. You saw on the
monitor and heard the end of the operation. He looked
more dead than alive. After all that, Joel came through
and he lived, and he's going to be everything he.
Speaker 1: Ever was before. Then, why isn't someone down here to
tell us?
Speaker 8: Because it takes a few minutes for the surgeons to
clean up the first moment he can. I'm sure, Kirk,
I'm sure doctor Malcolm will be down to give his
report to Kirk. Hmm.
Speaker 1: Nurses called doctors by their first names. So Joel was correct. Yes,
I'm sure he'll be down to report to you. Luck
to me. He doesn't even know I'm here.
Speaker 8: He should be here any moment. I don't want to
talk to him. I don't want to even be near him.
Not the man who planned to break up my son's marriage.
I you were the one who was against Joel marrying me.
I should think you'd have been glad to have any
excuse for something to break it up.
Speaker 1: Is that what you have in mind?
Speaker 8: You think I'd permit a little sniff like you to
walk off on my son. I have no intention of
walking out as long as Joe wants me on his
If I know Joel, he'd never allow you to make
a fool of him. It must have made you pretty
desperate to attempt anything like this.
Speaker 5: Sorry I took so long out of phoned, but I
thought you'd rather hear the news in person.
Speaker 1: I'd like to hear it too.
Speaker 8: I happen to be his mother. This is doctor Kowalski,
who I have been sitting here for hours watching him
on that TV screen. I'm quite aware of that, and
of other things. You were against the latter.
Speaker 12: Half of this operation, doctor Kubelski, whatever the name.
Speaker 1: Is correct, against motherster.
Speaker 8: Doctor Kowarski was only expressing an opinion as an internist
when he was asked.
Speaker 12: I don't recall his being asked, Am I to understand
my son is still alive?
Speaker 1: Of course he came through very well.
Speaker 12: There's every hope for him, every hope for what. I
don't quite understand his life naturally. And beyond that, it's
it's not up to me to make predictions, especially til
he comes out from under the anesthetic. And who's in
charge of that, doctor Malcolm. He's in the recovery room
with a battery of nurses and doctors.
Speaker 1: I want to see Joel.
Speaker 5: Oh, well, that wouldn't do any good for several hours yet,
either to you or to him, very well, I.
Speaker 1: Should wait here.
Speaker 8: I want to be the first to see him.
Speaker 1: By hospital procedure. It would be his wife.
Speaker 12: His wife and I can straighten that out between us.
I just want to be sure I am notified at
the first moment.
Speaker 1: A whirling witch. Mac, I kid you not.
Speaker 8: Just because I've been now this citizen around here. Doctor,
stop trying to get me mixed up and put up
and conferred me.
Speaker 1: Mac. We both love Kirk like he was your son
and my big brother. Do you? It was a hell
of a risky to look. But if for the patient,
for Kerry, or for himself, well, what do you mean himself?
Speaker 5: If Joel Stewart had no physical problems and doesn't need
nursing care, wouldn't that leave carry free to make a
choice which she's never been able to make.
Speaker 8: Since there's not a damn thing you can do about it,
find your own business.
Speaker 1: Welcome back, mister Stewart. I got through a doctor. You
have a remarkable will to live. I told my wife
I wanted to die. Your conscious wish perhaps your unconscious
was much stronger, and what was your worsh doctor? To
keep you alive? It's my practice when I can, even
when you're in love with a patient's wife. I won't
answer that. Would you like to seek your wife? I suppose,
so I'll bring her in. Oh, doctor Malcolm, yes, I
suppose I should thank you. It's not necessary. I really shouldn't.
Speaker 5: You'd have done all three of us a favor if
you'd made sure I didn't survive.
Speaker 1: Well, Carrie looks as though.
Speaker 8: Excuse me, doctor Malcolm, I don't believe you've met Joe's mother,
Missus Cholke Stewart.
Speaker 1: A pleasure, ma'am. That remains to be seen. Is my
son still alive? Well? Of course I came to tell
his wife she could see him briefly. Both of you,
if you desire, you can see him first, if you want.
Speaker 8: Mother Stuarts I think I do one question? Doctor, Do
you expect him to live?
Speaker 1: I haven't a doubt, barring unforeseen complications? And will he
be his old self? If you mean physically, I confidently expect,
with therapy and proper care, in three months, he'll be
as active and healthy as all of us. I want
to see him. I nurse, take Missus Stewart to the
recovery room. Go along.
Speaker 8: Uh no, give mother Steward a little time with him alone?
Speaker 1: First, very well, shall I accompany you?
Speaker 8: I would prefer to see him alone.
Speaker 1: As you wish, If you'll just go with a nurse.
Quite an old battle axe.
Speaker 8: That's about the politest name I can think of for.
Speaker 1: Oh, Kirk, you took some off of risks. I did
what I felt had to be done, not just for me,
of course not.
Speaker 8: I mean, it wasn't in your mind or your heart
that if Joel was no longer an invalid, then perhaps
you not.
Speaker 1: While I was operating now, but now it is No,
it's too late.
Speaker 8: Whatever else might have been possible before I promised Joel
if he had this operation, I would.
Speaker 1: Never leave him. So please, Kirk, let's leave it at that.
If you love me, I can't. I just can't take
any more. If I love you, well, let's put it
this way. Carry Because I love you, I leave it. It's
a matter of conscience. Thus conscience does make cowards of us,
All is fair, Kirk.
Speaker 8: I won't.
Speaker 1: I can't reneg on a promise, I guess I I
wouldn't ask you to. So this is the uh, the
end for us. It never was the beginning. Now I
must go to my husband. Please don't pretend, Carrie, I'm
not pretending. You can hardly wait to start nursing me again. Hm.
Does that mean I still have a wife? Yes, for
better or worse, in sickness and in health for always.
Would you promise, I promise.
Speaker 5: You had your chance carry, you and your surgeon he
should have lost me.
Speaker 1: What did you save me for?
Speaker 8: I am a heard and unpredictable old woman. Carry, and
I've learned a lot of things to day. A respect
for others that I give seldom and grudgingly, of recognition
of my own selfishness and of your unselfishness, the dedication
of your surgeon, Doctor Malcolm, the weaknesses in my own child,
some of which he inherited from me.
Speaker 1: Manister, lets let me tinich. It would be a long
and expensive convalescence. I can afford it. You can't.
Speaker 8: He will mend physically put all the flaws in.
Speaker 12: His character which I see so clearly for the first time,
will still be there. When I told him I would
remake my will in his favor and renew his allowance,
he jumped at the chance.
Speaker 1: Mother, I can manage. I am perfectly well.
Speaker 8: I know you are Carry, and now that it's too late,
I wish you were to be my differ in law.
Speaker 1: I don't understand everything I offered.
Speaker 8: Joel was contingent on one thing, and he gave you
your freedom.
Speaker 12: It didn't take him a second to make up his
mind that he needs now he needs a crutch. I
can provide him all the various sizes and shapes he needs.
You and your Kirk put my Joel back on his feet.
Speaker 1: Now let me do the same for you.
Speaker 12: There's one thing your surgeon, no matter how sharp this
cowpul could never do. Cut the umbilical cord. I've set
you free from Joeph. How can you answer for him?
It's all been discussed. I can answer.
Speaker 1: And what about me? It's my.
Speaker 8: Unwdding gift to you whatever your heart most desires.
Speaker 10: Oh.
Speaker 1: It was a quiet wedding six months later for doctor
Kirk Malcolm and the former missus Joel Stewart. Ted Kouwski
was best man, and every one else who had attended
the operation was there, except for the patient himself. He
was traveling in Europe with his mother. A Gordian knot
had been untied by the ancient method of cutting through it,
but whose scalful was sharper. The surgeon, or that vitriolic
old lady who had strength enough to admit her mistakes.
I'll be back shortly. I want that sinus medicine headache tablet. No,
the sinus.
Speaker 12: Medicine that releaves headache and congestion, internal sinus pressure.
Speaker 1: And post natal drift. You mean sign off exactly.
Speaker 14: Compare sign off tablets with anything you've ever taken for sinus.
No sinus tablet you can buy relieves more symptoms. Sign
Off gives you a full dose of pure aspirin plus
a powerful sinus drainer. Sign Off works fast to help
sinus pain while you drain s.
Speaker 1: I n e. Sign off.
Speaker 14: The sinus medicines in the bright red box.
Speaker 1: Take when needed, only as directed. One last quote from
the Hippocratic aphorisms, which seems fitting to close this case. History,
life is short and art is long. The crisis is
treating experiment risky, decision difficult. Not only must the physician
be ready to do his duty, but the patient, the attendants,
and external circumstances must contribute to the cure. Our cast
included Terry Keene, Gordon Gould, Don Scardino, Robert Caliban, and
Joan Shay. The entire production was under the direction of
Hyman Brown Radio. Mystery Theater was sponsored in part by
Listerine Lozenges and sign Off the Sinus Medicines. This is E. G. Marshall,

Your dialist at four fifteen minutes of late News with
John Scott reporting, This.
Speaker 1: Is Barry Farber. Join us immediately following the eight o'clock
news right here over Wor New York to talk of
New York.
Speaker 15: Mayor Beam argues for the city at the National Press
Club in Washington. Governor Carrey now calling for state aid.
Police investigating the death of a sixteen year old in
Nassau County Hospital. It's sixty four degrees in partly cloudy
mid Manhattan. The man says, clear tonight with the low
in the middle fifties. Sunny tomorrow with a high near seventy.
This is John Scott with the eight o'clock edition.
Speaker 2: Of the News.
Speaker 15: Mary Braham Beem went to Washington today and he told
a National Press Club audience at President Ford has offered
a cop out, not a cure for the city's fiscal ills.
The he wants federal guarantees for future loans, not tax dollars.
Speaker 2: Being said, New.
Speaker 15: York is not asking the federal government of the public
for one cent. On the other hand, default will cost
America billions. The mayor also touched on the political implications
of the President's position.
Speaker 12: A look at the record of public discussion on this
issue shows that the great week of expert opinion is
apposed to the administration's casual analysis of the local, national,
and even international impact of a New York City to fall.
The President's assertion that New York major New York banks
would be the prime beneficiary a federal action to averted
the fall comes somewhat as a surprise, since Federal Reserve
Board Chairman Arthur Burns has already indicated that the federal
government would act to help banks threatened in the event
of a city. The administration's concern seems to begin and
end with a bank and with a credit market.
Speaker 13: However, the fourth like all other economic.
Speaker 12: Disasters, will most effect the innocence, the powerless, and the
least resilient members.
Speaker 8: Of our society.
Speaker 15: Governor Carry asked the federal government today for a five
hundred and seventy six million dollar loan.
Speaker 2: The governor says the money is.
Speaker 15: Needed to head off to fault by four state agencies
that are handling two and a half billion dollars in
construction projects. In a letter to President Ford, Carrie said
the Housing Finance Agency, Medical Care Facilities Financing Agency, Dormitory Authority,
and Environmental Facilities Corporation face imminent default. The reason Carry
said is because the investment community has been scared off
loans to governmental agencies since the President's recent speech calling
for bankruptcy by the City of New York. In yesterday's election,
New York City voters approved six charter amendments that mandate
of balanced budget and other fiscal and government reforms, and
State Senator Roy Goodman, the Republican who heads the commission
that developed the charter amendments, said this vote ought to
be an encouraging sign to the nation that New York
is ready to put its house in order. Four other
proposed amendments of the city charter were voted down. Triumphant
opponents of the proposed equal rights amendment to the state
Constitution defeated in yesterday's election have already launched a drive
to get the legislature to rescind its earlier approval of
a similar proposed amendment to the US Constitution. The voters
also turned down proposed constitutional amendments that would have allowed
some local governments to bypass constitutional tax limits to play
to pay for employee benefits, and would have clarified the
right of municipalities to borrow for storm sewer systems.
Speaker 2: Amendments were approved to.
Speaker 15: Allow the legislature to call itself into special session and
to set up a new disciplinary system for the courts.
Speaker 2: Still undecided are proposals.
Speaker 15: To expand the types of gambling allowed for charitable organizations,
and another to set up a new administrative structure for
the court system. Nassau County's medical examiner said today that
missus As Janet's sarvant asked doctors on several occasions to
halt the use of a life preserving kidney dialysis machine
and take no extraordinary steps to save her terminally ill daughter.
The girl, sixteen year old Mary Jane Dahl died Sunday.
Speaker 2: At Nassau Hospital. Police at a respirator which also was used.
Speaker 15: To sustain life, had been disconnected about fifteen minutes before
her death, and they termed it highly unlikely the plug
was pulled by accident. Mary Jane was admitted to the
hospital a week earlier for treatment of meningitis complicated by Hodgkin's.
Speaker 2: Disease in euremia.
Speaker 15: Missus Sarvant and Mary Jane's aunt, Missus Jane Sheen, had
visited the girl a short time before her death, police said.
An attorney for the two women said he would not
permit either of them to make a written statement to police,
but emphasized that neither would take the life of another person.
The federal government filed a civil rights suit to day
against a citizens group in Queen's accusing them of harassing
and intimidating black homeowners in the predominantly white.
Speaker 2: Community of Rosedale.
Speaker 15: The community has been the scene in the past year
of the burning of two homes newly bought by black families.
The Wor News time it's now five minutes past eight.
Back to the news. Argentina's President Isabel Perone has scheduled
a nationwide broadcast address, but there is no word yet
on what the speech will deal with. The announcement comes
as Missus Peron's grip while the presidency appears to be slipping.

Speaker 15: Year old president through some formula that respects Argentina's constitution.
Egypt's President Anwar Sadat has accused the US of neglecting
the Palestinian problem, the problem that Saddat believes to be
at the core the entire Middle East dispute.
Speaker 2: Sadat told a joint meeting of the.
Speaker 15: US House and Senate that once the Palestinian problem has solved,
all other outstanding issues can be solved. Sadat told a
final meeting with President Ford this afternoon that after that session,
reporters were told the US has not given Egypt any
specific promise of military aid, but his Deputy Secretary of State,
Joseph Cisco, put it, obviously, this is an issue that
in time will have to be confronted. Saddat was the
first model an Arab leader to address the US Congress,
receiving a friendly and sometimes enthusiastic response. His comments on
the Palestinian question, however, were met with silence. Britain is
rushing in troops aircraft at a Royal Navy frigate to
reinforce its garrison in the Central American colony of Belize.
The move is in response to what officials in the
colony are describing as a possible threat of invasion from
neighboring Guatemala. The Guatemalan government is calling the move an
active intimidation. Sources in Belize said the British government had
received reports that Guatemala had sent ten armored troop carriers
to a town about fifteen miles from.
Speaker 2: The Belize border.
Speaker 15: Belize, formerly known as British Honduras, is claimed by Guatemala
on grounds that inherited Spanish sovereignty over the area.
Speaker 2: Britain rejects that claim.
Speaker 15: Morocco's King Hassan today he said he's going ahead with
his march on the disputed Spanish Sahara tomorrow, despite Spanish
and Algerian threats to stop it by force. However, the
king said he won't personally lead the march of some
three hundred and fifty thousand unarmed volunteers. The Spanish military
commands is warned the marchers would be met by minefields
should they try to move beyond the Spanish blockade set
up six miles inside the border.
Speaker 2: However, there has been.
Speaker 15: No independent confirmation of the presence of minds, and the
Moroccans have expressed skepticism when the Yoshimura pleaded innocent today
to three counts of possessing weapons and explosives, and a
trial has been set for January fourteenth. This Yoshimura was
arrested with Patricia Hurst in September. Lynnette from who's acting
as her own attorneys, set quietly today as a federal
judge questioned potential jurors for her trial on a charge
of trying to kill the president. She interjected comments only
twice during the morning session. She asked the judge to
rephrase a question and objected when the judge dismissed one juror.
At another point, she gave the judge a written question
to ask. The price of food continues to spiral. The
Agriculture Department today said retail food prices will continue to
edge up in nineteen seventy six, but perhaps at only
about half of their rate.
Speaker 2: Of increase this year.
Speaker 15: It is the first Agriculture Department appraisal of what food
prices might do in nineteen seventy six, official say much
depends on livestock production this winter. Now I'll have the
