The FBI and Peace and War, ordinarily heard at this time throughout the year, is taking its usual summer vacation and will return to CBS two weeks from tonight on September 1st. Broadways My Beat from Times Square to Columbus Circle, the godiest, the most violent, the lonesome-est mile in the world. My Beat with Larry Thor as Detective Danny Clover.
Broadway, where you can take a bus ride into the summer evening and make believe it's a dream boat. Then Broadway's as innocent and nostalgic as Carousel music. But if you walk, you can get hit in the face by a guy fishing for nickels under a grating.
Then you can't make believe anymore. But either way, it's Broadway. My Beat. Big voice that boomed through the afternoon heat belonged to Silksbergen. Him the heat couldn't pop. There wasn't enough of it. Siltz was a jockey, about five hands high, and with a wet saddle he might have scaled 110.
He waved to me from the doorway of a habradashery store. In here, Danny, in the store. Yeah, Siltz, sure. I've been waiting. I said I've been waiting for you to pass by, Danny. What's the matter with your voice, Siltz?
You're down to a whisper. Lyren Jite has had it for a week. Hey, Danny, I want that you should meet a friend of mine. Joe Madoc. Say some hello to Danny Clover, Joe. Hello, Mr. Clover.
Joe, Joe, six foot six and speaks like a tenor. You should know about things like that, Danny. Is it possible? I... Joe, go buy me a shirt over there. I gotta talk to Danny. Sure, Silk. Add an lavender and a polka dot.
