Two weeks from tonight at this time, the American album of Familiar Music returns to the air bringing you the finest of light classical music. Stiled in the popular manner, the American album of Familiar Music has been preferred listening for many, many years.

It stops for refreshing Sunday evening entertainment. Your favorite soloists return with the orchestra on the American album of Familiar Music, Sunday, August 27th over most of these NBC stations. And now, top secret. This story is top secret.

Top secret. Exciting stories of infrequent espionage brought to you transcribed by NBC and starring Ilona Massey as the Baroness Karen Gazer, a woman who fought without protection, without recognition and without fear, for the forces of freedom.

As a assignment 10, the case of a tattooed pigeon. Assignment 10 began and ended with tragedy. I had been assigned by central intelligence to trace leaks of important top-secret information from the Department of Internal Security in London to German intelligence in Berlin.

A dozen other operators were working on the case with me, but in spite of tremendous effort, I get uncovered nothing. And then one Tuesday I got an invitation. An invitation from Sir Roger Fenfield, Chief of Britain's Department of Internal Security.

Hello? Yes, Roger. Roger, no. Yes, an hour ago. Was the leak from your department? Can I don't know? Is there anything I can do? I have a country place at Spar...

Yes, yes, of course. The situation has become so desperate I've decided to call in Everett Rowan. Everett Rowan. From month I had heard of this fabulous American. Ostensibly he worked for a New York firm in London.

Few people knew that he was one of Washington's most trusted agents, one of America's top spies. The train for Spern had left London at noon on Friday. Everett Rowan and I got a first-class compartment to ourselves.
