Fire Fighters: Several Fires in a Small Town

Stand by all station. Attention! All districts! A fire alarm fire! Five bells move in immediately! That's it! Let's find fire fighters! 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 one moment, we'll join Chief Cody, rookie fireman Tim Collins, and the Chief's old friend Tom Culpepper, the country editor, on the banks of the Plum River where they've just settled down for a nice evening of fishing.

They've come to Plum Valley as guests of Tom Culpepper to get a good rest and forget about fires, but just as they throw out their lines, an old familiar sound breaks the stillness of the country night.

Now we'll learn more about this interruption to their vacation right after we've heard this message. Let's go, firefighters! Let's go to the shadowy banks of the Plum River where Chief Cody, Tim, and Tom Culpepper, their country editor host in Plum Valley are just settling down to an evening of fishing for bullheads.

Fires and firefighting are fathers from their thoughts as they talk about the particular fish thereafter tonight. Oh, just let me stretch my legs out in this grassy bank. And now Mr. Bullhead you can start biting. I'm ready. What kind of a fish is this Bullhead anyway, A bit of ass tom here. He's the bullhead authority.

Well, it's sort of a catfish, Tim. Black skin doesn't have scales like other fish. Has whiskers, though, and little horns on either side of his mouth. And watch out for those horns, son. It'll sting you plenty.

I'll fish with horns, you're kidding. Oh, no, isn't. And if we have the kind of luck the boy and tom in talking about, I'll be able to prove it to you for very long. long.
