Two + hours of Crime

First a look at this day in History.

Then Suspense, originally broadcast April 12, 1954, 70 years ago, Parole to Panic starring Broderick Crawford.  An ex-con trying to go straight is tracked down and shot by members of his old gang. 

Followed by the news of April 12, 1954, then Night Watch starring Donn Reed,  originally broadcast April 12, 1954,  70 years ago, Indecent Exposure.  The first report in the police car is about a case of indecent exposure. The cops travel to another city to arrest the suspect. The show makes for fascinating listening to the man's wife at the police station and an interview with the suspect in his jail cell.

Then Escape, originally broadcast April 12, 1953, 71 years ago, Classified Secret starring Parley Baer.  Spies on a cross-country bus...and counterspies along for the ride.  

Followed by Sky King starring Earl Nightengale, originally broadcast April 12, 1951, 73 years ago, The Lady Sheriff.   Lady Alice has stolen $60,000 in diamonds and escaped on her golden palomino. The trail leads Sky to a plane crash, a gun fight, and plenty of action inside of a diamond mine!

Finally Claudia, originally broadcast April 12, 1948, 76 years ago, The Moving Men. The moving men cometh.
