Eyewitness

Plus Spence, and the producer of CBS Radio's Outstanding Theatre of Thrills, the Master of Mystery and Adventure, William N. Robeson. What you're about to hear is more than the lurid figments of this writer's imagination.

It has happened in the prisons of Michigan and New Jersey, of Massachusetts and Colorado, and most recently in the prisons of Montana and Tennessee, when desperate men oppressed Just beyond endurance turn on their tormentors.

Not a prison break, not a prison riot, but a prison mutiny. Listen, listen then as John Lund stars in eyewitness, which begins in just a moment. And now I witness, starring Mr. John Lund, a pale well calculated to keep you in suspense.

You got the assignment because you've never been in jail. A fresh point of view on the state prison, the editor said. Not an exposé, nothing sensational. Just a Sunday feature story of the average citizen's reaction to the stone walls and iron bars of a big penitentiary.

Oh, it's a depressing tour and you've had enough. But the captain of the guard has one more point of interest for you. Is something you ought to see before you go, Mr. Kelly? Yeah, what's that?

The old block built more than a hundred years ago. This is where we keep the bad ones. The bad ones? Yeah. Insolitary. The tough guy is the deviates. Softens them up fast. Most of them.

You stop in front of the heavy steel door. But no guard pears through the bulletproof glass peeple. The door is not instantly unlocked as the others have been. That's funny. Could be a man on the door at all times.

Head on in, Mr. Currie. You walk in. The door clangs behind you. And then you feel something sharp. All right, brother. Stay where you are. Hey, what is this? If you make one move, Wolf, I'll drive this ship straight through your gut.
