Transcript

And now stay tuned for the program that has rated tops in popularity for a longer period of time than any other West Coast program in radio history. The Signal Oil Program, the Whistler. Signal, the famous Go Father gasoline invites you to sit back and enjoy another strange story by the Whistler.

I am the Whistler, and I know many things, for I walk by night. I know many strange tales hidden in the hearts of men and women who have stepped into the shadows. Yes, I know the nameless terrors of which they dare not speak.

Sandra Haynes with her dark hair, her quiet, almost equally dark eyes, her husband Gordon Haynes, tall, handsomely groomed, and their friend of many years standing, Peter Lacey.

I didn't say that, Peter. Oh, and by the way, Gordon, you will remember I'm staying at the St. Regis. Safe Regis, I'll remember. You see, Peter, she checks everything. The perfect point. And I've always said that.
