The Shenley Laboratories, producer of Penisill and Shenley and Shenley Pharmaceuticals, presents Jan Kortheira. Jan Kortheira played a knight, Yellowjack. Our star is Ronald Coleman. Tonight, Shenley Laboratories presents another in a new series of great dramatic programs.
Some of our stories are fact. The struggles and accomplishments of great men of medicine. Others are fiction. Stories of devotion to an ideal. heroism or great courage. By these programs, Shenley Laboratories would remind you that medical science and progress is not cold in personal research or pages of statistics, but a worn human story told
in living terms, whether it's the life of one of medicines and mortals or the simple everyday record of service rendered by your family physician. Now, Ronald Coleman brings you the story of Yellowjack, Cuba. Late July 1900, the land was rich in mellow, it shimmered radiantly in the huts and lights.

The land was beaches and banks, and the blue water curled its white toes on the beaches, coveting the land. Water, the transparent aqua home of the eel, the shark, the manatee, Cuba, late July, paradise and paradox, where the monkey was king of the jungle and the tortoise subject, where The beauty walked in Seltry's plunder, dripping venom and herning.
