Killer at Large

The mutual broadcasting system presents the mysterious traveler, written, produced and directed by Robert A. Arthur and David Colton, and starring tonight's two of radio's foremost actors, Ralph Bell and Charlotte Holland, in Killer at Large.

This is the mysterious travel, inviting you to join me on another journey into the realm of the strange and the terrifying. I hope you will enjoy the trip, and it will thrill you a little and chill you a little.

So settle back, get a good grip on your nerves and be comfortable if you can, as we drop in on a very clever gentleman, a gentleman who perfected an ingenious plan to be rid of people he disliked without ever having to suffer for it.

I call his story Killer at Large. My friend Mr. Jeffrey Andrews is temporarily confined to a hospital, so we're going there to meet him. He's just been given a routine checkup by a new staff physician, Dr. French.

Well, Dr. French, how am I? You seem to be in fine physical shape, Mr. Andrews. Yes, you'll have to be letting me go soon. I certainly hope so. I've had a good rest, but I look forward to getting back into harness again.

I'm Andrews first, you know. Andrews first? That's the name of my business. You see, my name is Andrews. So I named my firm Andrews first, and all my advertising carried the line. When you think of building materials, think of Andrews first.

Oh, yes, very clever. Used to drive my competitors crazy with my advertising. Yes, I pulled off many a smart deal, and I always let the world in on it. After all, what's the use of doing something smart if no one knows about it?
