ep216 The Monkey Chase

Ranger Bill, warrior of the woodlands, struggling against extreme odds, traveling dangerous trails, fighting the many enemies of nature. This is the job of the guardian of the forest, Ranger Bill, pouring rain, freezing cold, blistering heat, snow, floods, bears, rattlesnakes, mountain lions.

Yes, all this in exchange for the satisfaction and pride of a job well done. Bill and the Rangers are heading for real danger this time, but this is a different kind of danger. The terror is small, so small it can't be seen with a naked eye.

Yes, that's right, bacteria. My Newton size but deadly in effect. Then there are three monkeys in the story too, and as all monkeys will they keep the ball a rolling. What's the story about? I can't tell you that.

listen to the story, the monkey chase. Let's drop over to the laboratory of Dr. Victor Powers, well-known bacteriologist, who has made outstanding discoveries for the benefit of everybody's health. Dr. Powers is currently working on an improved vaccine for the treatment of influenza.

Just now, Dr. Powers and his assistant Herb Longfield are talking things over in the lab. Well, Doctor, our three monkeys are beginning to develop a first-class case of influenza. Yes, kind of hard on the little fellas, but that's what we want.

Only be careful, Herbert. Don't worry, sir. I'll protect myself. I'm in our hair to die from a flu germ. In another two days we'll be able to test the new vaccine. Say what's the reaction?

Yes, we should have the flu in its advanced stages by that time. Be sure to have your mouth and nose covered. Mucus sprays extremely dangerous. Dr. Powers, I wish you'd stop lecturing me. You'd think I didn't know a thing about bacteriology, the way you're talking.
