The signal oil program? The Whistler. At Whistler is your signal for the signal oil program? The Whistler. I am the Whistler. And I know many things before I walk by night.
I know many strange tales hidden in the hearts of men and women who have stepped into the shadow. Yes. I know the nameless terrors of which they dare not speak. Yes friends, it's time for the Signal Oil program, the Whistler, rated by independent research the most popular West Coast program in radio history.
And Signal gasoline is top two, tops in quality. It takes extra quality, you know, to give you extra mileage. And Signal is the famous go-farther gasoline. So look for the Signal Circle sign in yellow and black that identifies friendly dealer-owned Signal service station from Canada to Mexico.
And now the Whistler Strange Story. Juggernaut. Hampton Crossing is quiet now. And the solid respectable people who live there are going about their business with the same easy pace as before. But to many of them it will never be quite the same again.
Yes, the people of Hampton Crossing will tell you they made a mistake not long ago. A terrible mistake. There was mob violence and death. And the men and women who were part of it still winked inwardly as they passed the place where it happened.
They can still see the flaming torches, the assault waves surging up the steps of the Hall of Justice on Park Street. They can still hear the cries for blood. LANDING! Don't call our justice at us, shut up. We'll show you what I do when I kill her.
If the law won't do it, we will. And we'll ram it, actually, then. Come on, all the data. Yeah, there was a mob killing that night in Hampton Crossing.
