Transcript
The copyrighted program created by Rio Grande. Los Angeles County Sheriff's Office calling all cards, National Guard broadcast 265 regarding a missing person. Beyond the lookout for Bill Williams, last seen driving east near Purity. That's all.
Rose and Clue. This is Frederick Minnesley speaking. The man who was responsible for your problem sat down with me after a recent broadcast to talk things over. He said that no one could be happier with the way the program was being presented, that he knew calling all cars has a tremendous audience.
But said the man whose responsibilities to justify the many thousands of dollars had cost to bring you these broadcasts. While nothing we do brings us more pleasure than giving this program, we would like to have some concrete expression of loyalty to calling all cars on the part of those who never miss a program.
But who for one reason or another never have gotten around to their neighborhood Rio Grande station for a practical application of that loyalty? I'll leave it up to you. And for friends, the cast and I are putting it up to you.
We believe five years of our endeavor to give you a program of interesting entertainment should stand a simple test of friendship. If you have enjoyed calling all cars, will you put real-grandy product to one fair test?
The size of your purchase doesn't matter. All we want to do is prove that you folks will respond to a reasonable and fair request. The sponsor wants me to express to each of you who so graciously responded in the last week, are sincere personal thanks.
May we expect the same friendly gesture during the last week from those of you who haven't taken the time to see your rear-grounded fleeters. Will you make a point to see him tomorrow? Wish him a merry Christmas, and thank him for calling all cards.
