The Cigar Box Boys Case (aka-The Cigar Box Bandit)

Ladies and gentlemen, we take you now behind the scenes of the police headquarters in a great American city, where under the cold, glaring lights will pass before us the innocent, the vagrant, the thief, the murderer.

This is the line-up. Said right here, Mrs. Denny, next to me.

Well... Thank you, Lieutenant. No, don't be nervous. The people on the other side of the screen are the ones who are supposed to be nervous. They can't see us on this side. Not a thing.

That's for sure now. No one in the line up can see you. Maybe the man you've caught is the one I saw running away from the hold up. We hope he is. Hey, I am your indention, please. You'll be from out there on the other side of the wire in the audience room.

May I have your attention, please? Thank you. My name is Graf. Sergeant Nat Graf. I'll explain the line up to you. Each of the suspects you will see will be numbered. I'll call up a number, their name and charge.

If you have any questions or identifications, please remember the number assigned to the prisoner, as I call his name. At the end of the line when I ask for questions or identifications, all up the number. If you're sure enough to sure the suspect has been held, the officers who took your name will assist you, they're seated among you.

Please be prompt with your questions or identifications. When the prisoners leave here they are sent to the washroom and dressed back into their jail clothes. It makes it quite difficult to bring them back after they leave here.
