Campbell Playhouse - Escape

The makers of Campbell's Bout with Him, the Campbell Playhouse Wars, and well, what.

Is the.

Good evening? It is often well.

Last week, if you remember, I asked you to put yourself in the position of a certain Matt Dennant, who is the center of some interest.

In this week's broadcast.

I invited you to conceive of yourself as a decent young man. Just out of thinking the rest of your trousers. I sketched in for you the outlines of the scene to be played by yourself as this Matt Dennant and a certain lady played by Miss Wendy Berry.

Then I said good night. We went off the air tonight. My better instincts.

Obliged me to admit that, while there were no misrepresentations of.

Facts, my whole appeal was.

Designed simply and frankly to lure you back to the Campbell Playoffs. Probably my choice of Hi spots will not be yours. Perhaps I have led you to expect something between an Hallwood Spots and a Drury Lane melodrama. If so, you will be pleasantly surprised, because John Goldsworth is a escape in spite of it faintly catch penny title and even abetted by certain elements of undeniable adventures, is a

Thank you, orson Welles.

If I were to ask each one of you to name aloud right now your favorite soup, and if I could hear your replies, I'm almost certain the soup that would top them all would be Campbell's Tomato Soup. The reason, of course, is the magic, matchless flavor of tomato soup, as Campbell's make it a flavor that speaks to have

It's always a happy choice for the main dish.

At lunch or supper, a welcome beginning for the day's main meal. That's why Campbell's Tomato soup is the steady favorite with most families. The soup serves often and enjoyed. Always have it again soon, won't you? Perhaps tomorrow? And now our Campbell playoff's presentation of Escape with Wendy Berry and here is Dawson.

Wells to set the scene.

Our American version of The Golds where they play.

The scene is New York.

In New York, there's still a placer to where a civilized man can take his nightcap rather late it with leisure and without a flaw show. One of these is the grill room of the Plaza. Across from the Plaza the last of New York's almost extinct horse carriages, a brace of withering Victorias.

Some of us still charter.

These autumn nights when we'd like to take a girl around the park or smoke a pipe before turning. In the night of the Murderer, Matt Dennon found himself alone, and after a spot of something in the grill the pipes to smoke.

And an urge to smoke it in the open air.

He hired the dowdiest of these now the old Dowagers, and started off.

That's where our story begins. Yes, were the everyone used to be. But I remember when I bought this there Elsie, the name.

Alone there twenty eight years ago. That was you perhaply get.

Through the park on a Sunday morning with a handsome the fla and the historic and on a night evening like good driver, Yes, will you tell me about the lake please?

Thirday wore the wall. Yes. Nowadays you're lucky to get to ride a night whoa, oh, I have it once for a few steady customers like you, mister Dennant. Then that's fund of her.

Thanks.

Here you are get nositer dinner. Yes, I think I'll walk from here.

What about a wild woman? Women have an excuse of horses, they've been telling ever since Eve gave at him his coffee.

I guess I've been getting a lot.

What's your hurry?

I don't want to take up too much of good time? So on, Well, thanks for the life.

To feel like giving me a ring?

How did you get in through the window? Ben?

Under the bed?

Frowers?

I'm sorry? How was I to know it was a lady?

Because I don't know?

That's not an infallible test of sex. I didn't either. You'd have heard me you say you went to sleep under my bed?

Or quite sound of course?

If i'd know, really, well, aren't you going?

I'd like to But where?

Really?

I can't look at me Where.

Can I go in these clothes?

The strips? Yeah, that's right.

Do you expect me to lend you some hardly? I would be eternally grateful if you'd give me something to eat, anything, some candy on the table?

I have one.

You know you've got quite a nerve.

I'll turn you over to the police. I could do it, you know, just by ringing yoursell.

Of course you could. But then I don't think you will.

No.

No, I know who you are. Your name's in the paper.

Now, look, do you really like my position?

Sorry?

I'm afraid I only realized my own.

What am I going to do? Suppose I don't hand you over? How are you going to get out of here without being seen?

Mind? If I finished the candy, very good, I've been forty hours.

On two raw potatoes and a piece of bread mine.

If my parmits a water, what are you doing?

Nothing?

I should go over it so quick?

Aren't know I didn't signify?

Well?

Well of you must know I put my things into a draw.

It's runs all.

Do you know that you're only three miles from the prison. Yeah, I do, I do.

The first night I thought i'd get to have a straw, but I walked around in circles, I.

Say, is that a raison?

I underwashed?

If my husband I've known you dare touch it, I've tawd.

There's a limit, you know.

I'm not going to hand you a weapon, of.

Course, not that you wouldn't mind if I shaved?

Would you with this?

I haven't a chance even if I did have clothes. I'm a very quick shait.

It hits me one minute, I'll oh, I go ahead? Does his brushing is soaky? I'm sorry? There's no hot water?

The hell?

Have they come close to catching you yet?

That's why.

Twenty feet of the hall the human there's nothing so awful as a shade like I'm sorry, that's of course not having it. Can I use this to take the blue one? Thanks? Huh? That's why I have put on my shoes out of the bed. Go ahead, Thank you so much?

So you actually touched under my bed?

I did.

Well, that's amazing, amazing it will be if I got away.

No one ever has you know from that place?

Tell me, mister Genals, weren't you todd with my brother? He used to talk about him at Genals who did one hundred yard dashing ten three?

Quite like that. I was the Todd with a lot of brothers. What is his name? So now I can't hill that. You're right.

Never tell a convict anything he can tell anybody else. Why? Really don't see what else I can do to help you.

I don't know either.

I read your trial.

Is everything you said true gospel.

I suppose the police do keep it after those girls.

No wonder you lost your temper?

No I didn't. I wasn't really angry with him. I hit him.

I'm sorry enough with the poor guy. O, mister Jannet, Watch what happens now.

You've been very kind. I don't want to impose on you anymore than I have to. But you know I'll never get out of here this way. Take a look out of the window. See that man down there is the police.

Oh I could signal to him.

Just not so easy, good.

Night, good night.

You wouldn't. People don't give away their own kind.

No, go try down to the other room, to this space.

Try the couple next towards to me.

Yes, no, no, thanks, not right now? Do you think she had it? I hope not. Well thanks again. You don't know how to swear. It's been out to two years in jail to talk to a lady. I won't leave any traces.

What are you going to do?

Wait till the gent downstairs and looking the other way, sneak along your dualk and they drop down at the end of it and run through it again. It's still an pretty fair. I wasn't so stipid.

Oh no, I look here.

When I go to my bus, I'm make sure as no one in the hall. If I don't come back, go to un the stairs.

Hanging by the door.

You'll find my husband's raincoats, a long tweed run the stains, and a fishing run in the basket. And I'm all half a slide with p some morning.

Go out the front door.

The river's down to the left.

Can you fish?

Yes?

Oh?

Are you better?

Then I won't be able to see you.

But if you get by safely, whistle whistle the ladies in love with you?

Do you know it? You know?

But sure?

He used to hear it in jail on the radio. I can't thank you enough. I think you're wonderful.

Good luck. I'm gonna wait here, take a desk.

If you see anyone looking at you, drink.

Nothing gives people more confident than the land and to see him take a drink? Right, what are you going to say to your husband?

Uh?

Yeah, well I'll worry about that when he comes home.

Oh oh, and here's ten dollars. It's all I've got with me.

You know, I think you're sublime.

I doubt it.

If I'm caught, I'll swear I stole everything. If I get out of this frug get it, I get behind the doornot.

Here we go, all right, the coach's care.

Oh luis get back?

She comes to me, Era, Yes, ma'am, would you mind getting me the dress I sent down to.

Be pressed last night? Yes, ma'am. Is your husband back, ma'am?

No?

Why?

Oh?

I thought I had to talk.

And oh I wasn't talking to anyone, Ellen, just counting, just counting to myself. All right, ma'am, I'll get the dress.

Now. That's the very one, isn't it sad?

That's right?

Ellen, Very well, ma'am.

This is getting a little hectic.

Now go on quick, and when you get into the streets safely.

Don't forget to whistle.

Oh I won't.

Goodbye, goodbye, that's good.

Good afternoon.

Oh hello, my an advice it here a while?

Are you paish uncan. My name's Underwood, Judge Underwood.

I'm retired. How do you do? Say? Too well for you?

I'm afraid it's a bit bright now. Yes, for fishing, I mean, yes, they're.

Seating in the world, our local croud, except maybe the Blue Croud out in Washington see one, two eight of them. Ay and delicious with butter and potatoes.

I'll see Paugy this morning, wasn't it.

There's quite a lot of these polls here in the valley.

Only good for convicts and escape.

You mean, but they never get away? I believe, no, so I'm told.

But they try, you know, they do try, and always wanted what I'd do if I bumped into an escaped convict. Yes, you'd have quite a problem, there, wouldn't you? Out between the law and one's didn't prints as a gentleman. If it's a gentleman, like a whole conversation with a felon.

What do you think?

It seems to me anyone who tries to escape must have a lot of nerves.

It's taking a long chance.

Yes, I don't envy him. This is getting to be a pretty law abiding country these days. Evading the law isn't quite the glamorous thing.

It used to be.

Someone's probably appeal to me. I've done some escaping. My soul was that songs from school when I was.

A boy ran away. That's right. I was ahead of them for two days before they caught up.

Two days. Very interesting, good.

Way to lose weight. Ever been on a raw potato?

Dat?

By the way, I hear convict go way Melsworth this day before yesterday? Yes, I saw that.

Yes, well the name of Matt Dennis. I really scaped the time.

Very interesting. I strike you don't believe I remember it? What that central part case? Oh?

Yes, there was some girl they were trying to wrist. You know, in a case like that, they might wait till someone complain, don't you think.

Well, technically, I suppose the detective were doing his duty, and yet in those cases there's always an element of doubt.

The young man didn't complain.

I think you have to remember father. I remember it said that he and the girl were having an intellectual conversation.

That's right.

I remember that as Segt.

Thanks, I've got into a bad habit of coming out without the back home that thanks.

As suppos one might run into that convict fellow in a minute, unless they've caught him.

Do you a little like meeting a copperhead? We got a lot of them around here. Poor thing only wants to get away from you, And.

Yet if you don't break us back into one, it'll bite something. I had two dogs die of snake mine. So it's a duty, perhaps, do you think so, Tody? Probably I don't always do mine?

Oh don't you?

Well, I'm glad of that need to do.

I do you know that prison he got away from the dreary, sir, PRIs from the outside. I mean that was worth Yes, I know.

And the fact is I've had the misfortune to send a good many people to prison in my time, And in those days I made a point of seeing a prison now and then, I remember I used to give my juries a past to go and see where they sent their fellow human beings. And out of a lot, how many do you think I had the curiosity? None?

How'd you get.

Who'd want to go into a prison?

I just assume visit the more the bodies there aren't living. Anyway, you tell me, prisons are much improved nowadays. They've introduced a human feeling, have they splendid.

What was the date of that? I mean, they don't shave their heads anymore?

You know any convicts?

I no, Well, yes, I know one?

Really is he interesting?

The most interesting man I know.

And tell me suppose this man we were talking about this escape country suddenly it turned up here.

What would you do? Run like a hare?

Yes, I suppose it would depend.

Partly on whether anyone else was around. Human nature is very sensitive. Do you like the climate? Hudson Valley has.

Quite a reputation, overrated.

I think been here before.

No, this is my first business staying long, I hope not beautiful spot Lassy Point.

I liked it better for up the river. Well, I think our call of the day anything wrong. You're not here, are you?

I'm afraid I'll have to abandon the excellency guy who gave me. I've enjoyed it, but I'm.

Smoking on a rather empty stumble.

Oh yes, I know, best feeling.

I got it one step before I was to speak at some sort of testimonial dinner. Tobacco must be one of the things you really miss in prison. And as I suppose, they get tobacco now and then though empty stomach too, I guess Yes.

Here's another cigar. Try it later after you've eaten. I will, but you're passing my back. Thanks really going.

Eh where I must be getting onto? It's been very pleasant.

I have enjoyed our little talk. My time of life, one doesn't often get new sensation.

What heaven have I given you any well?

I don't remember ever having talked before to a man who'd escaped from school.

Goodbye, sir, goodbye mister Dennant.

Huh. I hope you have a pleasant journey, especially because no one seems to have noticed.

The real chat. Would you mind telling me how you spotted me?

Oh where you kept looking at your trout? Wopeishly, I think that's the word.

Then, if you'll excuse me those type of trousers of yours that cotally goes so far down you know, I guess I hope you'd think I was the lead a.

Fashion and there was another.

Thing you're obvious sympathy for yourself.

Yeah, that's a prison habit.

You're not allowed to sympathize with other people for fear of contaminating them.

So you sympathize with yourself. Before I got stand up, I don't remember ever feeling sorry for myself. Now, I doubt if I ever feel sorry for anyone else.

It's very natural.

Well, it's been most interesting because.

Now you see, if I were to meet an escape convict, I know what I should do. Do you mind if I ask, well, mister Demmont, this time I say, this time, I wink the other eye. It's a good day, you, good day, thanks.

From you. The moment I feel quite human again. You know that's been rather the effect on me.

Well, good day. This is radio at ninety point seven w FVSM, New York. If you are listening to the Campbell Playoffs presentation of Escape, Starry Watson Wells.

LID to Ernest Chapel, Ladies and gentlemen, welcoming you back to the Campbell Playhouse. In a moment, we will resume our presentation of Escape for just a moment. Now I'd like to talk about another kind of escape, I mean, the happy escape for mother from so many of the labors of the kitchen. Time was, and it was only yesterday when Mother all but lived in the kitchen. She had to do so in order that her family might

As women everywhere have tried.

Campbell's soups, They've tasted these soups of candles and realized that they are indeed made the true homeway, delicious and wholesome and nourishing. Women have watched their families enjoy them, and they've heard their husbands say, there's just.

No sense either are going to all the bother of making soup anymore, not when.

We can buy such fine soups disease. And so I'd like to invite you, if you haven't already done so, to try some of the twenty one tempting Campbell soups. Try, for instance, Campbell's Chicken Soup for its rich chicken flavor. Or try Campbell's Vegetable Soup with its hearty beef stock and fifteen different garden vegetables if you will. I'm pretty sure that when your family tastes.

Them, they'll say to you too.

So it's cleared up. So maybe as it did, you wouldn't be so smart about the climate.

It's rain to rain, and you missus spotty.

You'll never makes mistakes.

I don't suppose you gotta have arguments here.

Too all the time. Just because you're married.

I don't mean you got a legal right. People are already mama, certainly. So now we're here, we're having effect making. Everything that's nice. Certainly, I think smart. Everything's very nice.

Sanctuary? Who are you? Have you been here long? I was hiding behind those coats in the vestry? Or you're the convicts they've been looking for you? Oughtn't to have come here into a church.

I don't know where I'll go now, wait, close the door.

I think I read about you. You're that Matt Dennis. Yes, poor fellow. I didn't mean to kill him. I've been sorry. Where have you come from?

Who was chasing you?

Farm down? A great contain farmer to hired hands a stake tub.

The Lord knows?

Who are my oparishioners.

That you came to me for.

Thanktual, thank you? Mind I wonder this is a situation I've never had to face, mister Dennim you just let me rest of it, That's all I'll ask, of course, sit, thank you. I locked the door, not that window. Oh no, no, they can't see him. I expect you're hungry too.

No thanks, I'm beyond it, you know that feeling.

No, I'm afraid we of the church lead to regular lines.

Poor father, how does it look? Can you give me up? There's one man to another.

Who am I to give you up? I can't help you to escape, but if you want rest, you're welcome.

Wonder what our Lord would have done for that, Mister Dennis is the hardest preaching in the world.

Nobody ever knows. Very tired.

I never thought long to feel such. I have a little brandy here. Sometimes someone gets saint church. Thank you, Yeah, drink it down.

Thanks, I do, mind you, I wonder if you return this fast form. It's empty and here's the address herat the La Coup. You might say, with unending.

Gratitude, but please don't give that name away. I'll see to it.

What made you escape and stick up Bob jat nccage and open the door.

I'm mistaken to see what happens. Yes, I know what you're thinking. I've done my time and more. If you have a fair trial, you can't try bad luck home bad well. I oughtn't to have hit him, of course, but for an orderly knock out six weeks or something like that. About you get I got five years because of a railing. If you're quiet in your own mind.

That's the only pay yountn't worry if I'll be caught, all right, I'm not worrying about that.

What bothers me is my own piece of mind. I don't like the thoughts that keep rising in your op parishioners. Ah, yes, when you've gone, Shall I be entitled? Who have been silent about you? Without telling them that I've been silent? Am I entitled to refrain from helping the law without letting my parishioners know it? And if I let them know it, can I keep what little influence I now possess.

It is right for a priest to go on where he.

Has no influence. But that's my trouble, mister Dennis. I say I hear who is that? No, Thomas, I'm busy now. I can't let anyone into the church. Will service time my sex, hospitality demarg.

Shan'ner good, fam, I don't want to be on your conscience.

I'll be moving. No, wait, I'll have vestors in a few minutes. There will only be a few gathered together that I'm afraid you can rest in the vestry through the service.

Nobody comes here, thanksfully, all right, I'll go and take my chance again.

It's dark now, and I don't like to give up. I'll give them another run in decotiny open. You might give me your blessing. I'm not certain enough of myself. Not certain. It takes supticious police to give a blessing a real thing this time?

What is it? Who is it?

I give up on it. Get behind those coats and.

The propp.

Sorry, it's about that escape convict. I told you, Thomas, I could see no until after vests.

I know, father, I know that it's this officer here. Thought you ought to be told. I saw a man coming in here a while back, the escaped convict fatherow.

This man says he found him in a haystack on the South Mountain road, but.

He gave him a slip and he came in here.

You've been here long, honey, ah a please, Lord's lock, but I haven't done the side.

Sure he's not in tide the church.

I don't know whether you have the right to chearch a holy place, but but look for yourself as quietly as you can. Please, look you go with him to it?

Then I suppose that concreet quite all right? Yes, father, quick? So he used to coming back? Oh, Pomplin looked already.

Who can't you get through? He got away from me? Yes, he did run into it like a rabbity.

Again.

He's fought for he is. Say, I'll find them, coach more, coach.

I think I'll look. Yes, that's old, has been there a few quotes.

Now, that's sure is a funny Thing's gotta tryme coming in here. He's all I saw him all right outside of cause you all the trouble power.

It's got to be done, you know, quite all right? Father, it's time to ring the bell for best. Yes, father, and.

I'm afraid I'll have to ask you all to go to please, unless, of course he'd like to stay for the sir. No, No, can't do that I keep backward.

Yes, I understand.

All right, Hey, just a minute, you're part of my asking father, Are you certain you haven't seen this man?

What is it you're asking me?

Father? I am asking you, on your honor as a Christian, whether or not you've seen the escape convict.

He hasn't. Sorry, Father, I was hidden in there. I give up. Office said okay, but we.

Weren't looking here.

Didn't you let me say you're.

Heading this way? You think we wouldn't see you? Right? Then?

The party is over.

Let's go.

Please, please.

Be quiet? This great forgive me father? Important was coming here? Wasn't fair? It's all right.
