were trapped in the native quarter of Mozambique. Two dead men at your feet the police closing in on you. And beside you a saltery girl who offers you escape. Escape produced and directed by William N. Robeson and carefully contrived to free you from the four walls of today for a half hour of high adventure. Tonight we escape to Portuguese East Africa,

That's me, Ronald A. Dawson, Second Class Passenger.
