All cars, the copyrighted program created for the Rio Grande Oil Company. My family's police calling all cars, attention all cars, broadcast 130. Beyond the lookout for Andrew Holman, described as American 5 feet 8 inches, 135 pounds, 35 years old, wearing a brown, chin-shiller coat.

This man shot and killed detective Paul Lee on the fugitive detail this evening. That's all. The road is the mode of the tonight's broadcast. We have three very important guests we wish to introduce.

Don't miss this special feature on tonight's book. These two crime dramatizations are created and sponsored by Rio Grande because this company is in such close touch with police work. In the many leading cities and counties of the West, that specify Rio Grande cracked gasoline exclusively to power their police and emergency cars.

And the drivers of these police cars are such boosters for the gasoline that Rio Grande is proud to tell the public through this program of the heroic deeds of the police officers who use Rio Grande to crack gasoline daily to meet emergency.

Cruising slowly along hour after hour, these police cars suddenly get a radio call for help. Down goes the problem. The engine bores and the rags. Rio Grande de Cracch gasoline meets the emergency with instantaneous power.

Precious seconds are saved as Rio Grande Cracch develops top speed without the sluggishness or delay characteristic of uncracch gasoline. No wonder thousands of police drivers, and the drivers of fire engines and ambulances and mooring cycles, are so enthusiastic about Rio Grande Cracch.

No wonder the gasoline powers more emergency equipment everywhere to solve than any other brand. The most convincing proof of the efficiency of Rio Grande de Crock's gasoline is its use year after year for the most difficult job any gasoline has ever had.
