by all stations. Attention, all districts, a fiber-arm fire, five bells, move in immediately. That's it. Let's roll! Presenting firefighters, the true-to-life story of our unsung heroes who stand ready to ride by day or night against our most murderous enemy, the demon of fire. In just a minute, we'll take you to the waterfront to the Tenacomb Dock, where Chief Cody and Tim Collins, rookie firemen,

Mr. Tennecombe, proprietor of the Tennecombe-Toeboat Company, has explained that Captain Juckle, of the Eustice tea is a good sailor, but a rough and ready waterfront character. And

A hard case, huh? And it's up to me to get along with him. I think I'd better start from scratch if you don't mind. Well, I mean... You mean you don't want me in the way when you bump head with Juckel?
