Quiet City

In a moment you'll hear James Stewart as the six-shooter. Just one of the many fine programs brought to you Sundays on NBC. Later this evening we'll listen to the NBC star playhouse with one of your favorite stars.

Here meet the press America's number one news making program and be sure to keep tuned for the dramatic story of communism in America on Last Man Out. It's a wonderful lineup of great programs. All of them heard only on NBC.

James Stewart as the six-shooter. The man in the saddle is angular and long-legged. His skin is sundied brown. The gun in his holster is gray, steel, and rainbow mother of pearl. It's handled unmarked. People call him both.

The sick shooter. The NBC radio network presents James Stewart as the sick shooter. A transcribed series of radio dramas based on the life of Britt Ponsett, The Texas planesman who wandered through the Western territories, leaving behind a trail of still remembered legends.

I sure don't know where the town ever got that name. Quiet city. Every time I came through it was anything but quiet. In the old days the Apaches were always stirring up trouble.

After the Indians were moved on to the reservation, they were still plenty of excitement at all. They were shooting practically every weekend. At least that's how it was when I was here last. I was old about four or five years ago, I guess.

And now the town did seem sort of different, first glance. Anyhow, there were 20 or 30 new houses along the side of the creek there. The main street was a good four blocks longer than what I remember.
