Family Theater: The Criminal

The Theatre presents Lyle Betker and Jean Lockhart. From Hollywood, the Mutual Network in cooperation with Family Theatre presents The Criminal, starring Lyle Betker. And now here is your host, Jean Lockhart. Thank you, Tony Lefrano.

Family Theatre's only purpose is to bring to everyone's attention a practice that must become an important part of our lives if we are to win peace for ourselves, peace for our families and peace for the world. Family theatre urges you to pray, pray together as a family. Now to our transcribed drama, the criminal starring

Lyle Bechker as Ellen. Did you talk to your father? No. When I got to the phone Mr. Rivers was on the wire. He said Dad was in the library with a police inspector. Things fantastic. You don't really think Dad had... Of course not honey. I mean it's Fantastic you should even be suspected. It's misunderstanding that's all.

Even Mr. River says it was nonsense. Well, now there you are. If the President of the bank tells you not to worry, that's enough for me. After all these years to be accused, even to be accused of embezzlement...

It's a mistake, Paula. And he hasn't really been accused. But the money's missing? They'll find who took it. Now get hold of yourself. It's just such a shock. I know, baby, but you gotta keep your head.

You can't help him by wringing our hands. I know. Did you tell rivers we were leaving the club right away? Yes. Did you tell the police I'm your father's attorney? Yes, he said they wouldn't do anything until we got there.

Okay, now stop worrying. We can probably clear the whole thing up in 15 minutes. Yes. Alan. I understand the police are still questioning him. Yes, in the library. Isn't Paula with you? No, she went upstairs. She's pretty upset. I can imagine.
