The Man with the Steel Teeth

And now, tonight's presentation of radio's outstanding theatre of thrills, suspense. Tonight, the story of man who makes his escape from the most dreaded prison in the world. We call it the man with a steel teeth.

So now, starring John Dainer, here is tonight's suspense play, The Man with a Steel Teeth. It began in the evening of April 29th. I was seated in my box at the ball showing up in Moscow listening to a particularly fine performance of Boris Goodenov When I felt a slap on my shoulder My lids here. My dome. Hmm. What? What you want? My dome. Yes, palitsi

That's you there. Look here. What's this all about? You are under arrest arrest What are you talking about? Oh? There were two other men with him, big men. In a moment I found myself escorted down the corridor, down the grand staircase, and out into the dark street to a black limousine waiting in front.

No one said a word as we sped through the streets, the men on either side of me staring straight ahead. Then we rounded a corner, and in a second I knew our destination. Look young, come to prison. Home of a thousand ugly secrets and the dread MVD.

We swung down a long ramp and came to a stop at a huge, unguarded bronze door. Inside I was taken through another door and steered down a long corridor. It was the cell block. I was a prisoner of the Soviet secret police.

As a very secret, you're not? I'm an accredited college sponsor. My paper is here in order. You know that. Now what about I gave up.
