THE EDDIE DOLL CASE Dennison. — It’s going to be a big job to examine all the marriage licenses in New York. They probably got married under fictitious names, too. Haynes. — {Thinking) Let’s see. . . . Doll meets a girl . . . wants to marry her. Is he going to let her know who he really is? If she were the type of girl that he could take in as one of the gang ... he wouldn’t care if she knew his identity. Right, Dennison? Dennison. — Yes. Haynes. — But ... if Doll doesn't want her to suspect anything, then he can’t ask her to sign a fictitious name to the marriage license. He’d change /iw name . . . but that marriage license is going to contain her real name. We’ve got to find a license made out to Janet Galaton. Colonel. — Dr. Simon, I know the most interesting part of the case will be the police search for Janet Galaton, but before you tell us about that, Frank Gallop has a few words for our listeners. {Commercial) Colonel. — Dr. Simon, you were telling us that Inspector Haynes and Dennison went to New York to check the marriage license records. Simon. — Yes, Colonel Schwarzkopf, for over a month. Inspector Haynes and Dennison worked in the marriage bureau of New York, carefully going over every marriage license. It was a tedious job. {Fade) Then, late one afternoon . . . Sound. — Typewriters and office hum in background. Dennison. — {Tense) What is it. Inspector Haynes? Haynes. — This is worth our weeks of tiresome checking, Dennison. A marriage license made out to Miss Janet Gabrielle Galaton and Mr. Leonard E. Foley. Dennison. — Janet and Galaton are fairly common names. Haynes. — Married to Leonard E. Foley. . . . Give me that sample of Doll’s handwriting. Dennison. — Sure, here it is. Sound. — Rustle of paper. 379
