Oh any more questions, Cliff, Yes, thirday you found all these identifications on the body.
Speaker 6See guide.
Speaker 5The quest said the body hadn't been touched by any besides he nothing was taken.
Speaker 2Of course, something was taken.
What there was no identification on him, no fingerprint record on him.
There were no laundry cleaning marks on his clothes.
So because all this stuff was brand new, well who was he?
I don't know.
What about the person who discovered the body.
That was an elderly couple, but the guide let him get away when he went to college grave.
The guy is stabbed to death in the middle of a crowded bus.
No identification, no nothing.
Speaker 4You know.
Speaker 2The only thing good about this case is Boston Blackie, isn't it?
Speaker 6Hey?
Boy?
How much further?
Speaker 2A little more, Cliff, I want to get beyond the coast patrol.
Speaker 6I don't like it.
Speaker 2Supposed to catch it, I wan, yeah, but if they make it stop to find Visi's body on his boat, I don't like it.
I tell you I should have left you in the auction room, Cliff, I would think of looking in a barrel from body.
Nobody can't help.
But I still don't like.
I didn't like killing him, but it had to be done because he killed Joe Gates for me, trying to blackmail me.
All right, Cliff, cut the motor, what now, boys, help me roll this barrel over to the side.
Okay, I'll hold it, I'll push it in the water.

Speaker 6This is Blackie inspecting.
Have you found any bodies lately?
Speaker 2Why?

What about the dead body you've got down to the headquarters right now?
Hey, were you on that side seeing bus?

Speaker 2What the corpses five to four is hat size and six and a half.
Huh, good mind, genius.
I'm busy.
Speaker 4Premium quality, yes, sir, premium quality that is yours to enjoy at no premium in price.
Speaker 2Now that's something worth remembering.
But every time you pour your glass of Champagne Velvet, you're reminded that you're enjoying a real premium quality beer at no premium in price.
You know, of course, that more costly malt and grain, higher priced hops, and more careful and costly brewing methods are all a part of CV's famous million dollar formula.
So CV has to have unmistakable premium quality.
Cev's flavor tells you all of that.
It's bright and sparkling, light and lively from full to finish, with a rich, robust and full bodied flavor of a real, honest to goodness beer, real premium quality beer.
But that's not all.
It has a clear, clean taste given it by controlled aging, a taste that makes you sure it's pure.
Speaker 4And it's smooth, smooth, smooth, just as smooth.
Speaker 2Now back to Boston.
Blackie z Jones, a killer, trails Joe Gates on a sightseeing bus and stabs him to death when Vez tries to get more money for the job from Boss Slocum, owner of an auction room, Slocum kills Beezy and dumps him in the ocean because Mary wants to buy a chair.
Blackie uses this as a pretext to search Slocum's place.
Blackie finds a puddle of blood in a hat with the initials b J in it.
Speaker 6Blackie calls Instea the.
Speaker 2Paradise, but Paraday is working on the murder of Joe Gates and Beezy's death has not as yet been reported.

Speaker 6Yeah?
Speaker 2And I'll tell you it's like this.
We've been trying to identify the body we found in the bus.
Any luck, Yeah, we managed to get results once in a while.
Corp, says Joe Gates.
I know who killed him, the same way you identified the corps.
You never saw Buck Blackie.
Why don't you take a vacation from being a past beat it relaxed Friday.
I'm a taxpayer and headquarters of civic property.
Besides, the elderly couple who farm, Gates dead and the bus were just here.
Speaker 6Well where are they now?
I sent them home?
You what they told me?
Everything they knew.
Speaker 2They described the guys sitting next to Gates on the bus, and I'm sure it was Jones.
Why didn't you say so?
Now all we have to do is find VZ Jones.
Speaker 6We have our case.
You're not quite why not?
Beezy's dead?
Remember I thought your corps had the initial vj Oh, so that was your corpse?
All right?
Speaker 2Where is it?
Speaker 6I don't know?
Speaker 2You say, I was doing some investigating in the back of slogans or slogan?
Where does he come into this?
Now?
What do you talk?
Speaker 6If you will stop making so much noise, maybe you learn something.
Speaker 2Okay, teacher, go ahead.
Speaker 6But I better be good.
It is I found blood in the back of Slogan's place and near the blood are half of the initials VJ in here.
Speaker 2So so Slogan is supposed to be running a legitimate auction room.
Yeah, but I think it's a front for stolen goods.
There's your case Fatday where Gates tried to pull some kind of a stunt or Slocum hired Bes to take care of him, and then Slocum killed Vzy.
Yeah, it's all tied in with this racket in the auction room.
Yeah, why don't you investigate Slogan's place, Farthing, Maybe you'll find auctions speak louder.
Speaker 6Than the words.
Speaker 7He still having found a chair Blackie, and.
Speaker 2Faraday still is looking for a killer.
Look, Mary, I think I can wind up this case.

Speaker 2Well, I did want to get back to my place to change his grin.
Speaker 3Well what do you want me to do?
Speaker 2You want to go to Slogan and pose as BZ Jones's girl.
Well, that's the idea.
Speaker 6Tell him, Bez told you all about the racket, the auction room being a front for stolen goods, and so forth, and and.
Speaker 2And Bezy taking care of Joe Gates of course, and tell him Beezy kept the record of all this work.
Speaker 3You mean dial Yeah, some sort of a little record book.

Are you all right, Mary?
Yes, Blacky, But how did you get here?
Speaker 3You're supposed to meet me at my apartment.
Speaker 2Well, when you left, I remember the pain of your sleeve and realized that if Slocum saw it, he put two and two together.
Speaker 3He did, Blackie.
Speaker 7He wanted one of his gunman Clipped to kill me, but Cliff wouldn't, so Slocum killed him, and he stepped him into his barrel.
Speaker 3It was awful.
Speaker 6I take it easy, Mary, Yeah, how did you get here?

Speaker 2What do we do now?
Speaker 6Call inspect the Friday and tell him we have his killer over a bowl?
Speaker 4Make mine c V because for me there is no fine air beer, and it's just as smooth.
Speaker 6Make mine CEV.
Speaker 2So many folks who no good beer when they taste it have said just that time after time that Champaign Velvet is not only the leading beer by far in its home state of Indiana, but it is preferred by particular people everywhere that it is sold.
There is only one reason for that, and that is flavor.
The bright, sparkling, light and lively flavor of a real premium quality beer, premium quality that costs you no premium in price.
The rich, robust and full bodied flavor of real, honest to goodness beer.
And the clear, clean taste that makes you sure it's pure.
Speaker 4So make yours, CEV, because for you, there is no finer beer.
Speaker 6You're sure it's pure.
Speaker 4And it's just as smooth.
Speaker 2And now here is a preview of what happens next week.
Speaker 7Flaty, What are you doing home on such a gorgeous day?

Speaker 6Better take it?
Otherwise I'll be wondering all day.
Who was calling?
Huh hello, Hello?
That's funny.
There was somebody on the phone and when he heard my voice he hung up.
Speaker 3Now you know what they say about uh when a man answered.
Speaker 6Oh, good night.
Now there's somebody at the door.
Speaker 4Well I'll take it this time.
Speaker 7Yes, what blacky, there's nobody out here.
The holes empty.
Speaker 2But look, here's an envelope.
Speaker 6Left it and right, No, let's see what it is.
Speaker 3Come on, hurry, take it easy.
Speaker 6What's the envelope yourself?
Speaker 2It's empty.
First, the phone rings, and nobody's at the other end.
The doorbell rings, the hall's empty.
And now this envelope put nothing in it.
And the fact that nothing is in it means something's going on.
