Fire Fighters: The Man Who Was Too Clever pt. 1

Five bells, and by all stations. Attention! Attention! 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 join Chief Cody and Tim Collins, who just 24 hours ago arrived back home from their vacation in Plum Valley, a vacation that turned out to be packed with more excitement and relaxation, one which allowed them to help their editor friend Tom Culpepper achieve the dream of his lifetime, a modern prior to Parpen for Plum Valley.

Well, now they're back in the city, ready to take up their duties as firefighters. But right at this moment, they're both off duty heading for, of all things, a party. A party we might say that starts them both off on one of the most thrilling fire mysteries in a city's history.

We'll be with them in just a moment, right after this interesting message. Let's go, firefighters! Let's join Chief Cody and Tim Collins in the Chief's big cars they hit across town, not toward a fire, but to a party.

And what proves to be one of the biggest adventures either of them have been mixed up in. But what if firefighters got to do with a party? Neither Tim nor the Chief are what you'd call society folks.

Yet tonight finds them all dressed up in formal attire, dinner jacket, black tie and all, heading for the palatial estate of Saxon Sims and one of the swanky of social functions of the year. Oh, this monkey suit is killing me, Tim.

How in blazes, folks? Where am I? I'll never know. Oh, you look sharp, thou chief. Regular bulb rumble. Heh heh. I'd trade the whole outfit for the old uniform. Oh, this collage. Your torture. Yes, sir.
