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 three weeks from tonight on September 1st. Broadway's My Beat from Times Square to Columbus Circle, the godiest, the most violent, the lonesome-st mile in the world.
