Never Steal a Butcher's Wife

And now, tonight's presentation of Radio's Outstanding Theater of Thrills... ...the Spence. Tonight, the story of a supermarket and a young man who finds it after closing time, once the Daily Bustle is stilled, this very ordinary store becomes a place of danger and terror absolute.

So now, with high-everback as Harry, here is tonight's suspense play, Never Steel a Butcher's White. It started the first day of the job. working to look at the problem of the supermarket and then a lot of sages away my brother when i left new york it gives me this letter to a friend is a guy who

was a string of the supermarkets well i was about to use me i was a good fellow he could count it a favor you know and a guy had this opening liquor and comes the following monday i'm at work i spent the morning loading the refrigerators with beer so the water all that stuff

and sizing up the place you know back east we don't have many of these supermarkets That was the vegetable department run by a nice little dark guy. And there was a delicatessen that was run by an old geyser and his frow.

There was a bakery department and meat department. And of course the groceries. No clerks. You pushed a little card around and helped yourself. You got out, you passed the cash register and the girl loaded your stuff, and rang up the price.

My surveillance of the place had reached the girl who checked the groceries when the troubles started. She was looking at herself in a little mirror and putting on some lipstick. Her back was to me.
