The Case of the Substitute Slayer

Facing dirt presents Nick Carter, famous for chasing crime. Every week at this time, two great names are joined. As new post-war old Dutch cleanser brings you one of the most resourceful and daring characters in all detective fiction.

Nick Carter, master detective. If you got Miss Bone to come here to make trouble, Clara. I didn't, Larry. I swear it. Oh, maybe that's the mysterious woman who calls me. I'll get it. Why, Mr. Carter?

My name. Don't tell us you got a phone call too. Certainly did. They called to come over here in a hurry to prevent a murder. Murder? But I'm the one who's been threatened and I certainly didn't call you.

Well, somebody did. That's it. That's the kitchen door. Somebody... And now, the case of the substitute slayer. Today's adventure starring Lon Clark as Nick Carter. Dropped to you by new post-war old Dutch cleanser. It's mid-morning as an overly dressed woman in her middle 30s sits swiftly in Nick Carter's office.

I suppose you've heard of me, Mr. Carter. I'm Clara Corbin. Oh, Ms. Corbin's a rat in it. She writes self-operause for the radio. You know, cereals. Thrilling real-life drama. The solution to the problems that confront every woman.

Oh, I see. But, uh, doesn't it get a little tiresome, Ms. Corbin? Oh, heaven, no. Well, what can I do for you? Mr. Carter, the part of one of my shows is actually happening in real life.

Really? Here, read this note. Clara Corbin, if you don't stop writing about Larry and me. I'll kill you. You got this note through the mail? Yes, and here's another one. Clara Corbin, take me out of your script if you want to keep on writing. Sounds like to work in the crank if you ask me. Mr. Carter, I don't suppose you've ever heard my radio serial,
