          POLITICAL LEADER!

(McCrea)  Hello ladies and gentlemen, this is Johnny Jones, the Globe's
          syndicate speaking to you from Amsterdam, Holland, where I've
          been an eyewitness to the assassination of the Dutch cabinet
          minister, Van Meer, the key figure of European politics. 
          An hour ago I arrived from London by plane to meet Van Meer.
          As I waited for him on the steps to the Peace Palace, he
          alighted from his car and made his way toward me. Halfway, he
          was stopped by a news photographer who asked for a picture. 
          Van Meer consented and was shot dead by a revolver held close
          to the photographer's camera. Bystanders rushed to Van Meer's
          aid and I pursued the assassin through the crowd, only to lose
          him in traffic.

(McCrea)  Follow that car! Quick!
(McCrea)  Say you better get out of here, this might be dangerous.
(Day)     Don't be silly. Drive on!
(Sanders) What's the trouble? Who's been shot?
(McCrea)  Van Meer. Assassinated.
(Sanders) Dead?
(McCrea)  Looks like it.

(boy)     I can't see!
(Gwenn)   Here, here. There you are, me boy. Oh!

(Sanders) I'm afraid you'll have to keep the girl there much longer
          than we planned.
(McCrea)  But that's absolutely impossible!
(Sanders) I think you better keep the girl off for the rest of the night.
(McCrea)  Well, I can't very well explain, but I simply couldn't pull a
          thing like that!

(McCrea)  If you know how much I loved you, you'd faint. There. Now what
          did I tell you?

(voice)   Joel McCray, Laraine Day, Herbert Marshall, George Sanders,
          Albert Basserman, Robert Benchley.
