Personal notice, dangerous my stockin' trade. If the job's too tough for you to handle, you've got a job for me, George Valentine. Rightful details. Standard Oil Company of California invites you to... Let George do it.

In just a moment we'll begin tonight's adventure of George Valentine, but first here's more proof that heavy-duty RPM motor oil gives extra protection against wear and repair. A fleet of taxi cabs used to average only 35,000 miles between overhauls.

Now, using heavy duty RPM, these same cabs travel over 100,000 miles before overhauling. And that's your proof that heavy duty RPM motor oil cuts engine wear and greatly increases the time between overhauls, gives top protection and top economy of operation the kind you want in your car.

So next time be sure you get heavy duty RPM at any independent chevron gas station or independent chevron gas station or standard station where they say and mean we take better care of your car Tonight's story Chance and Probability a transcribed adventure of George Valentine Dear mr. Valentine Chance and probability a harmless sounding phrase isn't it?

It's had a horrible influence on my life ever since I first heard it You're in a beautiful South American town that has pink houses, incredible sunsets of liquid gold and seizes. The fanciest gambling can see no outside of Maricado.

Oh yes, it also has a murder that everyone but me is willing to forget. Mr. Valentine, I need help from a fellow American. Someone I at least know by reputation. So please, please use these airplane tickets and come to me.

Seriously, Mary Marston, Cara Professor LaRoule, 25, I'll be entered your sole polyzone. P.S. The words chance and probability refer to a gambling system which can't fail to make anyone a million dollars except that its possession is an invitation to death.
