Best Friend

And now stay tuned for the program that is rated tops and 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.

For extra driving pleasure, the signal to look for is the yellow and black circle sign that identifies signal service stations from Canada to Mexico. And for Sunday evening listening pleasure, the signal to listen for is this whistle that identifies the signal oil program, 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.

And now the Whistler Strange Story, best friend. The conversation and the cocktails were in full swing at the fashionable Brentwood gathering. Everyone present appeared to be relaxed, comfortable. All that is except Bob Talbot, who had a problem.

A problem of strategy as he divided his time between pleasant small talk and the seriousness of his attempt to avoid Liz Wheeler, the wife of his best friend and business partner Henry there. As the evening wore on and Bob's evasive tricks wore thin, the inevitable finally occurred.

He found himself trapped in a quiet corner of the drawing. Well, Bob, fancy running into you. Hello Liz, nice to see you. Is it? Of course. Well Bob, it's been ages, what's wrong? Now, Liz, I've been busy.

Oh, yes. That sweet, young thing I see you pictured with in the society section. Liz, this isn't the time or the... I don't believe there's really anyone else... Liz, really. Darling, I've got to talk to you in private.
