You're about to hear a story based on actual events, to protect the innocent, names and places have been changed. Otto Leite and its 96,000 dealers bring you Miss Jean Crane in a story taken from life.

Tonight's presentation of... Suspense! Tonight, Otto Leite presents the case study of a murderer. A factual document from medical reports. The tragic story of a woman's refusal to believe that within her husband lived the murderer among us.

Three times a year? Are you a hog-washin' me, Hallo? Now, I'm shooting straight, Sheriff. Three times a year in normal car use. That's because that great auto-light stay-full has three times the liquid reserve of ordinary batteries.

And the auto-light stay-full gives longer life as proof by tests, conducted according to accepted life cycle standards. Well, she sounds better than chow-call to me, Harlow. Right to our, Sheriff. So friends, see your neighborhood auto-light battery dealer and ask him for an auto-light stay-full.
