Good Will and Peace through a world fellowship of business and professional men in observance of its golden anniversary and as a public service, Rotary International brings you the Rotary Golden Theatre. As we enter the Rotary Golden Theatre, the bright lights blaze forth the title of the drama we are about to see, honor among thieves.

We take our seats, the curtain rises on the impressive but comfortable living room of the Harry Murchison home. Mr. Murchison, proprietor of one of Middl City's leading department stores, looks inquiringly as his wife as she finishes a telephone conversation.

Well... Well, it was Mr. Gornie, Harry. The committee's going to call on you at eight o'clock tonight and he thought you should have some warning at the visit. They'll want an answer, but Martha, I'm hanged if I know what to say.

A Middl City needs some honest men in politics. You'd make a wonderful mayor. It would be a big job. Take lots of time, but it would mean prestige to Harry in spite of all the modernizing you've done and beautiful new building Too many people in middle city think Freeland is a better store than yours. I know I've never been able to understand it

Well, anyway, you owe it to the town to run for mayor if somebody doesn't do something Frank Kegel and his henchmen are going to take over But Kegel and his hoodlums practically run things now. That's not all Martha, the fantastic sums that go into Kegel's gambling resorts are diverted from legitimate channels.
