 This is Edward Brown W1A W news It's nine minutes past ten time for the Sears radio theater That's the theme from the Sears radio theater tonight a program of adventure with Richard Widmark as your host Here's a preview Holy suffering cats. Look at that. It's an enormous stone statue one of those Indian idols. Do you think yeah? Why on earth they want to smuggle on something like that They can't sell that in the black market. Can they just size of a house the Sears radio theater will begin after this message from your local station If I want to make sure I buy the right thing that I look at a magazine I look at the consumer magazine. I do a lot of price comparing before I buy well If I'm thinking of buying a certain refrigerator or air conditioner, I ask around to see what experiences people I know have had with that manufacturer. I found it best to check with my friends who have the product I want to buy when I have to make a decision between the two items. I just tossed a coin I just let my wife decide I always buy things on Wednesday. I think that's my lucky day People have lots of ways to buy things some are good and some are not so good But one way that really helps is to read and compare warranties just as you would price or quality The law says on purchases of $15 or more Warranties must be available for you to see before you buy. You'll find that some are full and some are limited so compare A tip from the federal trade commission. It's good to read warranties before you buy And don't be bashful because it's your money This is Richard Riddmark It's a fact Some of us lead more exciting lives than others But it's also a fact that a lot of us prefer it that way For the sake of argument we can divide ourselves into three categories In the first are those who prefer to enjoy their adventures vicariously For the simple fact that it's safer How much more pleasant to relax after a hard day's work by listening to someone else's problems for a change Let them take the risks We'll hold our breath on the sidelines In the second category Are those who deliberately seek out risk and embrace danger The sort who much prefer to spend an afternoon hunting sharks than sunning themselves on the beach Well, we assume they know what they're doing And that brings us to the third category The person whose work takes him on a routine assignment that suddenly becomes a lot more than he bargained for Such a person as tom sims an officer in the united states coast guard Oh, tom has faced his share of dangers Braving the swift tropical storms that spring up off the coast of florida to rescue imperiled fishermen And several harrowing encounters with smugglers and modern-day pirates But even he was unprepared when he was summoned to his commander's office one pleasant spring afternoon For the awesome adventure that lay in store for him And that's only the beginning of our story radio theater a new adventure in radio listening five nights of exceptional entertainment every week Brought to you in elliott louis production of the sears radio theater Our story milwaukie deep by persie granger our stars barney phillips and tyler mcvay The sears radio theater is brought to you by sears roebuck and company Sears where america shops for value I love to eat, but it takes so long to cook That's why we both love our new kenmore microwave oven from sears I can cook a five pound roast medium rare in just 30 minutes Or three strips of bacon in three and a half minutes on a paper plate Bake two potatoes in eight minutes and cook vegetables faster than boiling them in water That means less time in the kitchen and more with you vast clean cool cooking with sears kenmore microwave ovens all with automatic defrost Choose the right model for your kitchen from the many styles available at most sears retail stores Sears national automotive sale now save 36 to 76 dollars on a set of four sears steel belted radial tires That's great savings on the most popular radial in sears history And the sears heavy-duty shock can help save you from some of the jolts chars and jerks Help save you some money too on sale now only $5.99 each say 14 percent on america's best-selling shock Installation available at most sears tire nottle setters prices may vary in alaska and hawaii Honey, I can't sleep.

Thank you, sir You know the legend of the flying dutchman, don't you the ghost ship? Condemned to sail forever without helm or steersman While its captain played it dice for his soul with the devil. Yes, sir Well, it seems we've got a flying dutchman of our own A yacht was found at drift in the atlantic near the bahamas yesterday Oh, I read about it in the papers this morning her crew advantage Certain details were kept from the press For one thing the boat wasn't completely abandoned According to this report They found one man still on board So far they haven't been able to determine his identity but from his uniform. They assume he was a member of the crew He was dead. Oh, he's very much alive, but gone completely mad He's been in an incoherent state ever since they took him to the naval hospital in miami He keeps muttering that someone tried to chain him to a large stone But that he hid from them And then he lapses into a catatonic silence. They found no other survivors. Oh, and they're not likely to A complete sweep has been made of the area But as you know, that's one of the deepest parts of the atlantic The boat was found directly over the submarine canyon known as the milwaukie deep He goes almost 30 000 feet straight down nearly six miles Another thing the press doesn't know is that there's been a rash of Disappearances of pleasure crafts similar to this one all yachts all big Banished without a trace This is a first one that's been found. How do you know there's a connection? I'll get to that in a moment An attempt was made to scuttle a boat holes have been drilled into the hull from the inside The boat didn't sink because it was specially designed with a double hull The saboteurs obviously didn't realize this and only cut through the first layer You think it's the work of pirates? Well, that's a logical assumption up to a point We've been chasing dope traffickers and smugglers for years who hijack boats on the open seas and use them to carry their shipments And this boat was obviously carrying something Its main deck was scarred and scraped and the railing on one side was broken Crushed as if by some enormous weight of the big stone that the crewman was babbling about possibly But what doesn't make sense is why the boat was abandoned in the middle of the ocean The reason you hijack a boat in the first place is to carry your cargo from one point to another Or maybe they panicked Or maybe they made a mid-sea transfer to another boat to escape detection Seems like a rather convoluted way to do things Anyway coast guard headquarters has asked that you be put on the case Yes, sir, but I don't understand our jurisdiction is limited shouldn't this be handled by the people over on the east coast? Yes. Well, this brings us back to your question about the connection between all these disappearances We turned up a new piece of evidence just this morning Those yachts may have ended up in the Atlantic But they all put out from the Gulf Coast Not only that they all put out from the same town Conway beach Yeah, I used to live there before I joined the coast guard. I'm aware of that And you used to work for an old sea dog by the name of sam munson. Yeah. Yeah He owns a wharf down there outfits boats with crews and suppliers, but He's not involved in this. Is he every one of those boats was outfitted at his wharf But sam's a great old guy. He wouldn't be mixed up in anything crooked. You'll admit it's a coincidence And the only lead we've got Anyway, you're the logical choice He doesn't know you're in the coast guard now. Does he no I haven't been in touch with him in years good Your orders are to leave at once And don't go in uniform Outside this ain't the charge of my hall sam. Oh sam. It's tom sims Tom Hey, good golly. It's been a long time What are you doing down this here? Neck of the woods. Well just passing through had to stop in on the man who gave me my first job. Yeah You want a soda? Well, you still have black cherry. Mm. Oh, yeah, that's your favorite Here you go. It's on the house Old place hasn't changed a bit. No. Well, I had done a few repairs I had uh Had to show up the wharf a few years back and I had to get it lengthened to uh Commodate them big yachts folks to around here now You no longer just gas up runabouts and fishing boats, huh? No, no, no this and there has been a real boom in this town since you left In fact, come here. I'm gonna show you something There You see that boat there Ain't she a dandy the sea wind that stink pot runs 200 feet. I am outfitting it right now It's owned by mr. Uh clarence murphy You ever heard of him? No, I don't think so. Well, he is only one of the richest contractors in the whole state of florida He's worth millions and he comes to old sam Yeah, this thing sure do change don't they you must be laying aside a nice piece of change. I can't complain I can't complain So, uh, what are you doing with yourself these uh these days? Well, uh, oh Hernando, yeah, yeah, I uh, I've been expecting you Excuse me, uh Did you speak to mr. Murphy? Yes. Yes. It's it's all sad. I gave you a good recommendation He's gonna take you on as your steward and there's two more. Are you right?

We will be on board tonight Friend of yours? Uh, no, I don't know What you said you recommended him to mr. Murphy.

Murphy. You know what I mean. No, I don't now. What the heck has got into you sam I'm not just passing through. I came down here for a reason What reason? I'm with a coast guard. Well What has that got to do with me? What happened to the santa helena sam the scuppernaug the joybride mary's folly What happened all those boats sam? I don't think i've ever heard of them. Well, that's strange They all put out from your wife who were never seen or heard from again And two days ago another boat you outfitted was found to drift off the bahamas with only one person left alive on board What uh, what did he say nothing? Whatever happened completely unhinged him What is it sam? What have you gotten yourself into? I can't tell you tom. I think you have to I mean, I just don't know All I do know is Some guys come to me up from south america somewheres and they Offered me a lot of money to put their people in the cruise I was having and you did it It was a lot of money tom and I ain't a youngster anymore Didn't ask any questions that was part of the deal But I didn't know what was happening. I didn't know them boats was disappearing Not till I read in the papers about the one they found What are you going to do tom? I want a berth on murphy's boat tom Whatever these guys are up to they mean business Okay, you talk to this fellow murphy you tell him i'm a friend of yours and I need a lift up to gulf shores Tell him whatever you have to but see that I get on that boat Mr murphy that looks like we're safely underway. I'm going below to my quarters. Bring me a whiskey sour would you sir Just put the drink in the high boy. I'm tom simms. Mr murphy. Oh Oh my hitchhiker. Can I speak to you? It's important. Sure. What's up? I'm a lieutenant in the united states coast guard. Oh really? Does that have something to do with why you're aboard my boat? I have reason to believe you're in danger There's no time to go into details, but I think an attempt is going to be made to hijack you Well, the sea wind is a fast stinkpot lieutenant But if they're pirates operating in this area, we'll keep an eye on Thanks for the warning you won't be able to outrun these pirates. Why not because they're already on board How do you know? Your first stop is gulf shores. Yes, i'm picking up some fishing buddies and you plan to refuel there Yes I've just been down to your engine room Are you aware the sea wind is carrying enough fuel to get you halfway across the atlantic what? And I expressly ordered only enough gas to get us to gulf shores We'd better put in for the nearest port at once. They'd be on you the minute you gave orders to change course I brought a radio with me. It's in my sea bag down in my quarters I'll contact the coast guard station in pentacola with our position and our destination and they'll put us under surveillance Good. Yeah. Yes, you do that Oh, uh, that must be her nando. I asked him to bring me a drink Mr. Murphy Ah, and you do mr. Seams. What's going on here? Don't move either of you. Oh, what do you want? What are you doing with that gun? We are taking over your boat Come with us Sears radio theater will continue after this message from your local station This is mal blank and voices are my business In Warner Brothers cartoons, you probably know me as the crazy little character Duck Pocky pig or Bugs bunny duck We all have a voice and matters that affect us in our community And it's necessary to speak out to get the best possible community services One community tradition which really deserves vocal support is the library The library has been serving up all kinds of information ever since this country began After all, you can get thousands of voices in the library's books on film records and tapes and you can borrow these voices freely But the library can't give you such good service without a lot of vocal and personal support from you This means you need to write or call your community officials and speak up for the library It's only the air folks at the library A public service message from the american library association and this station Here's a tip from your better business bureau Is your car equipped to handle emergencies? Well, here's a list of essential items which will enable you to better handle an emergency situation A car jack and lug wrench should always be carried in case of a flat tire Be sure you know how the jack operates and the correct procedure for changing a tire Flares and reflectors provide warning to other motorists that your car is stopped and both are essential safety items A tow strap or chain enables a car to be pulled out of the mud with snow Battery jumper cables help a motorist solve a dead battery problem quickly A small fire extinguisher can prevent a small problem from turning into a large one But you'd better keep it in the passenger compartment where you can get to it quickly A first aid kit can come in handy in all sorts of minor medical emergencies A tip from your better business bureau Tie them together What are you gonna do with us? What are you gonna take us? You will find out when we get there. Are you gonna kill us? I am not going to answer any more questions, mr. Murphy Are these ropes tight? Good Do not try to free yourselves as stevan will be right outside the door and he will be armed Ropes are cutting my circulation. Don't struggle. You'll only make them tighter. Maybe we can work ourselves free Listen We're turning They're changing course South Maybe southwest, Mexico It's enough gas What's gonna happen to us? I don't know mr. Murphy. Just relax while I try to loosen the ropes What good lead do they've got an armed thug outside the door? I've got my eye on that portal My quarters are right next to this cabin. You think you can get to your radio? That's the idea These ropes are too tight. It'll take forever. Well, the one thing we've got going for us is time, mr. Murphy Because wherever they're taking us. I suspect it's a long way off Mr. Tom You've been twisting us around all night long and I'm exhausted Not to mention sore I've almost got it this time. It's done We've been going for nearly 24 hours. Where the heck are they taking us? I'd like to know There there I think I've done it. Yes Yes, you have I I I can feel the rope loosening. Well, the rest should be easy now Listen, huh? What's that? What we're slowing down What if we reached our destination there's no time to lose Can you see anything out the porthole land? Jungle jungle as far as the eye can see that's all just just jungle. No, no wait boats drifting about Look over there buildings modern buildings Looks like some kind of a resort pretty fancy place. It's enormous three hotels marina All cut right out of the jungle Where are we? I'm gonna try to get to my cabin. No wait. Wait. Look There's a launch coming out from the marina. They'd see you I'll have to try later Let's get ourselves back into these ropes and make it look good. Maybe we're about to find out what's going on Here they are saying all green good morning, and then they'll get these gentlemen some food Now Which one of you is the owner of this magnificent boat? I am Well, my name is Guillermo Grimm I am the man responsible for commandeering your boat. What do you want it for? We'll be loading a cargo on board this evening. Well, are you a smuggler? Not at all. I'm a business man a real estate developer If you could look outside the porthole there, you would see some of the most beautiful real estate in the world Where are we? The Yucatan Peninsula home of the ancient Mayan civilizations The jungles here have lain untouched for centuries Ever since the Mayan civilization mysteriously vanished But now thanks to the wonders of modern travel A once inaccessible place such as this can be developed as a splendid resort area Uh, perhaps you've heard of it the Costa del Samo You bring all your tours here by force? Of course not I'm sorry for the indignity and discomfort of your situation, but it was unavoidable What are you going to do to us as I said the Cargo will be brought on board this evening and you will leave in the morning Is the same fate in store for us as those six other boats you pirated Other boat what happened to their owners? I'm afraid I haven't the faintest idea what you're talking about Oh, here's a nando with some refreshment for you Put it on the table there where they can reach it with their mouse. See you What's the cargo you're putting on board that you will find out soon enough Until tonight then enjoy your stay in the Yucatan Until they're gone the Costa del Samo You ever heard of this place? Yes It's a new resort I think it just opened last year Some associates of mine were going to come down over the winter, but they changed their minds Oh, why I don't remember They didn't say much about it Let's get out of these ropes. I'm gonna make another try to get my radio What do you think they're smuggling drugs? Possibly But I'm beginning to suspect it may be something else. What's that? Mayan statuary There's an enormous black market trade and stolen artifacts Looters have been combing these jungles for years robbing temples, pyramids Anything they can get their hands on Surprises there's anything left, but why steal boats to transport it? That sort of business is risky enough as it is without getting into piracy too. I don't know I opened my porthole to air out my quarters I hope they didn't shut it. Help me. All right Oh Can you reach it? Yeah hold on to my wrist. I think so Got it. Is it open? Yeah, I haven't rifled my bag. Looks okay Radius still there Now to set it up. Pensacola base one. This is lieutenant sims. Do you read me? Hello, Pensacola base one. This is lieutenant sims Pensacola base one come in please Out of range dammit sending someone down to rescues. I couldn't get through. We're too far south. We're out of range It couldn't get through to anyone. Not even naval air station to Key West tried every channel nothing We're in the middle of nowhere here. What are we gonna do? Can you swim? Of course I can. I think you'll fit through that porthole Just about We'll sit tight until nightfall then swim ashore find the road and get to the nearest village Let's make for that clump of palm trees there Anyone see us? I don't think so Funny this place is huge, but it looks like there's hardly anyone here There's no one on the verandas hardly any lights on in the rooms. It's dinner time Maybe they're all at dinner There's a dining room that looks pretty empty strange It's like a ghost town Those friends are yours who are gonna come down They didn't say anything at all They did mention something about rumors nothing specific Just that the place didn't have a very good reputation People were afraid to come here for for some reason. Well, there's no road along the ocean front. Let's make our way round back The ocean again. There's nothing no road out of here wait I see something up ahead. Come on some road Not even paved. Well, it's got to be the road out of here. It's the only one. Let's go I hope we don't get picked up by the wrong people Once mr. Grimm discovers we're gone. He'll have his men down this road like a flash What was that? I don't know Come on. I wish that moon would come out Wonder how far the nearest town is this pitch black. I can't see a thing Oh, here comes the moon now Oh, no, what? What's happened to the road? Turns into a big clearing must pick up on the other side. We'd better work our way around the edge Well, you suppose they cleared this big space for oh, maybe they're gonna put up another hotel Why inland why not back down on the beach or the rest of them? Look what's that noise? Sounds like a plane It is a plane There's your answer. This is a landing strip. Look floodlights quick back into the underbrush This is how the tourists get in and out. This is the wonder of modern transportation. Mr. Grimm was talking about I mean, there's no road out of here. Just an airfield. Look around places lit up like the fourth of july You see anything that looks like a road. We've got to go through the jungle Ah, no way We'd never make it The nearest town's probably a hundred miles from here. What are we gonna do? Once they find out we've escaped they'll come for us And we've no place to go The furniture's softly another lamp turned on it's built for stability if not budge The room glowed in the brassy elegance that these seers best lamps command Create your own hauntingly elegant moods with seers brass plated lamps at most larger seers retail stores This is my first night camping with my family of five.

They'll be after us What do we do now? I say let's go back to the resort. What make it easy for them No, no, I want to find out just what's going on what this cargo is and what they've got in mind for us If we know maybe we can sabotage them Looks like an office. There's someone in there It's that fellow hernando. Yeah, and senor grim come on So the takeover went smoothly. There were no problems. No, senor Good And let's go ahead with the loading in it. Is the truck ready? See? Who are we taking out tonight? Chuck my favorite. This is no time for jokes every day. This is costing me thousands of dollars And that's getting dangerous They discovered that the out at sea and if that sailor recovers his witch and is able to talk we're all finished Come let's go Sounds like they're smuggling out people. Yeah Hey, this is strange. What is look at the wall beneath the window here. It's cracked And look over here More cracks No wonder there's no tourists here wonder what caused them. That's no mystery Substandard materials I'm in the construction business myself and you'd be appalled what some contractors will do to cut costs. I don't know These walls almost look as if they'd been wrenched by some gigantic force I wonder just what it is. They are taking out of the jungle What's that sounds like the truck they were talking about there it is the headlights It's coming this way get down It's like a gigantic derrick. That's a hoist the truck is counterweighted in the front Whatever it is they're going for must be huge. Let's follow them The jungle on the far side of the airfield How's it gonna get through look There's men over there removing underbrush They had a camouflaging another road one of those indian idlers. Do you think? Yeah Why on earth they want to smuggle out something like that They can't sell that on the black market. Can they it's the size of a house. I don't know if they've got chains around it They're ready to lift it out of the ground What's that What's happening the ground's trembling Testing its removal. Oh, that's nonsense I think we have the answer to it's it's not possible the cracks in those brand new walls weren't the result of shoddy materials The Mayans never left the yucatan at all Their spirits are still here And senor grim's bulldozing their jungles has angered their gods. That's crazy. We've seen it with our own eyes That's what grim meant about losing money. He's not a smuggler He's been taking the indian gods out to see to protect his enterprise. So What are we gonna do? What can we go only one place we can go back to the boat? Are you crazy? Grim's not only a smuggler. He's worse. He's a murderer He's gonna use the sea wind to take that monstrosity out to sea And then jettison it and us still that's our only chance Once we're in the open water and within the radio range of the naval station at key west I can get a call through to them. What if they've already discovered we're gone. We'll have to take that risk There's no other way Let's go Get your hair good and dry mr. Murphy or they'll know we've been out What's left of it That statue they'll be bringing out must be the rain gun here they come get the rope Good and tight you got it. Yes. Yes. Good evening I've asked Adnan to say that you get some food for the final leg of your journey Final your cargo is being ferried out now If you can manage to stand and come to the porthole you can see it in the next burst of lightning Omniscient no, what is it chuck? The Mayan god of thunder and rain He and his brethren have taken exception to my resort So it has become necessary to exile them To the bottom of the sea the Milwaukee deep Exactly 30,000 feet straight down nearly six miles Even they cannot wreak their vengeance on me from there It's an astonishing thing no the forces that exist which we cannot begin to comprehend And what happens to us? You will remain down here until Adnan reaches the deep And then you'll be taken up and chained to chuck So that your bodies will not later float to the surface The boat will be scuttled Adnan and the others rescued by a helicopter which will follow you And you know No, you can't daily it can't be much further to go Aren't you going to try the radio? We should be close enough now the naval station won't be too far off our starboard bow Even there on the door radio was gone gone. They must have found it. My whole seabag was missing. What are we gonna do? Listen We're slowing down. We must be there There's movement out there in the passageway They're coming to chain us to the statue get on the other side of the door quickly Well, sir They're both out Time up how many more do you think there are can't be more than one or two Not if they're being picked up by a chopper Give me a staybond's pistol. I'll go after them Got enough rope. I've got plenty Make contact with the naval air station on the ship's radio They're sending out planes to intercept the helicopter and an escort to meet us good Let's get up on the bridge and head for home Looks we're gonna get when we pull into the harbor with that monster on our deck Open her up. Let's go. She's open all the way. Must be look over the side Something must be wrong with the engine She sounds fine. We'll turn it off. Let's go down and have a look now coming toward us There's a wave a gigantic wave It's headed right this way try starting the engine and head into it. I can't Now it's completely dead. It won't even turn over. Mr. Murphy. Are you all right? The statue It's gone wave must have carried it overboard. How could it have done that without capsizing the whole boat? I don't know But I have a feeling Try the engine now. I think there must be something real about those Mayan gods And that's the end of our story The two men turned their boat toward home And shock swept into the Milwaukee deep by his fellow gods Rest in their midst in the profound calm Far from the disruptive advance of civilization For mother's day give mom a hand With handy appliances from sears Prices have been cut on sears best food processor 14 speed blender with jars and a push button self-cleaning broiler oven Save money and she'll save time on ironing day with a spray steam and dry self-cleaning iron So give mom a helping hand on mother's day and save at sears Sail ends may 26th dates may vary in Alaska and Hawaii Here's a riddle for you women to solve I'm one of the first things on in the morning one of the last things off at night With slack skirts and shorts.
