This is your radio novel. Hello and a cordial welcome to another radio novel. Our story, 64th Street Safari, is about a rookie Irish policeman who found himself the hunted instead of the hunter.
One of the people on his trail was a beautiful young woman who just wouldn't let him alone. Now to our radio novel, 64th Street Safari. I'm sure great many people have been laboring under the impression that the life of a patrolman in a big city is one of constant high-pitched excitement, speeding after gangsters rescuing
fair maiden, bossing people around. Sorry to disillusion these people, but the life of the policeman can be just as routine and dull as that of any other man. the time they walk and walk or they ride and ride down and around the same streets day after day.
You can get tired of seeing the same people, the same cracks in the sidewalks and hearing the same foolish questions as one AA Callahan rookie patrolman found out. Hey there, what do you have in trouble?
I uh... I know how it is. I can never open the door with an arm full of bundles myself. Yeah, Yeah, it's a hard. Where's your key? What? Your key? Oh, oh yeah, here. How's that?
Thanks. Glad to help. Well, good night. Oh, just a minute. Yeah? You dropped your newspaper. Keep it. Well, thanks. Long as you're finished with it. Good night. Oh, and Mike.
Not while you're on duty and you know it. Now, I'm too busy being friendly to argue with you. Besides, I'm off duty. All right. And don't give me a glass full of foam. You're paying for it.
