Fatal Step

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, transcribed by the Signal Oil Company to enable the entire production staff of the Whistler to spend the New Year's weekend at home with their families.

Signal, the famous Go Father gasoline, invites you to sit back and enjoy another strange story by the Whistler. And the Whistler. And I know many things, what 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, for the signal oil company, the Whistler's strange story.

Fatal step. It was a clear night, a high moon bathing the giant concrete columns and sweeping approaches, To an unfinished stretch of bridge in the outskirts of the city, the area was seemingly deserted, all traffic being routed around it until the end of construction. But there was some movement, some life, a man alone, walking along one of the approaches, high up over the street below.

And unknown to him another man, Carl Fabian higher up, drawn back in the shadows of a support column, Watch him, waiting, expectantly. And then, as the two figures converge, Carl Fabian steps out. Good evening, Mr. Evans.

Yes, sir. Where is it? The name is Fabian. Carl Fabian. Oh, Mr. Fabian. What do you want? I'm just a little curious. That's all. Curious? Yeah, it's about you. Your plans. Are you enjoying this job here?

This is farman, I mean? I'm getting along. Didn't notice something in the paper about the crime commission asking you questions about the Latimer construction company? I'm not supposed to discuss that with anybody, Mr. Fabian.
