 I'm Charles Scott King, WNEWS. At 9 minutes past 10, time for the Sears Radio Theatre. That's the theme from the Sears Radio Theatre. Tonight, a program of adventure with Richard Widmark as your host. Here's a preview. A whiteout is headed for Keyhole Basin, Mr. Haverly. I'd like your permission to delay operation on all our lifts until the whiteout danger passes. Well, this is an early morning eye opener, even for an old man like me. Oh, I think a whiteout would open any ski resort owner's eyes, Mr. Haverly. The Sears Radio Theatre will begin after this message from your local station. This is Safety Vision, a quick and easy method for observing potential hazards in your home. Let's start by activating your safety scan. Methodically, focus on your hair dryer. Is the dryer mistakenly plugged in while not in use? Is it in a position where it could possibly fall into water and be a shock hazard? And is the dryer grill free of lint and hair? This time, focus on your electric food-preparing appliances. Are they out of the reach of young children? And check that the appliance cord does not hang over a table edge or counter. Next, your safety scan should include checking all electrical appliances for an indication that the product design has been evaluated by safety engineers and complies with a nationally recognized safety standard. To do this, check for the UL label on the appliance. A public service message on behalf of underwriters laboratories and this station. This is Richard Widmark. This is the sound of the United States Forest Service Artillery Team, clearing an avalanche in the Colorado Rocky Mountains. The sound waves of the blank artillery shells loosen the stress snow. At express train speed, the avalanche plows down its time-worn path. High winds blow when the avalanche is weak. World War I military commanders in the Italian Alps first discovered that avalanches could be triggered by artillery fire. But the myriad variables involved make exact avalanche prediction a thing of the future. Temperature, the steepness of the mountain slope, any rapid change in weather conditions, the rate of snowfall, even the crystal formation of the snow itself are all determining factors in avalanche prediction. At Colorado's Keyhole Basin Ski Resort, ski patrol captain Skip Blanchard and team member John Titus collect resistograph readings on the resort's one possible avalanche slope. Now the shaft struck the bottom of the snowpack, Skip. Okay, let's withdraw the shaft. The resistograph will record the slope strength to load pressure. Strength to load pressure reads 4 to 1. This slope's a regular rockage abroller. Oh yeah, for today anyway. Skip doesn't realize how closely his remark attends tomorrow's radical weather change. Within 24 hours, a raging blizzard, a whiteout, will lock into the Keyhole Basin Ski Resort, dumping enough wet snow to reduce the slope strength to load pressure to 1 to 1. The whiteout guarantees Keyhole Basin's first unpredicted avalanche. And that's only the beginning of our story. A new adventure in radio listening. Five nights of exceptional entertainment every week brought to you in Elliott Lewis' production of The Sears Radio Theater. Our story, Whiteout by Bruce Martin. Our stars, Joan McCall and Linda K. Henning. The Sears Radio Theater is brought to you by Sears Robuck & Company. Sears, where America shops for value. And now a special message of interest to shoppers across America from Sears. Everybody has been talking about inflation. Well, here's what Sears is helping to do about it. Starting the 1st of May, all prices in Sears Spring General Catalog will be reduced 5%. This means a discount of 5% will automatically be taken off the price of anything and everything you order from the Spring General Catalog between May 1st and July 31st, 1979. Also beginning in May, Sears retail stores across the nation will reduce their regular price of selected items, which means you can expect even greater values. In addition, for limited periods of time, Sears will sharply reduce the price on scores of items in our retail stores. Watch for these Sears Super Values on TV, radio and magazines and your local paper and your benefit from price cuts each month. Everyone wants to control inflation. These are some of the ways Sears is helping to do it. Sears, where America shops for value. Sears hand-painted strawberry stoneware has delectably sweet country looks. And durable, this dishwasher safe stoneware resists chipping, cracking or fading, even when exposed to your oven, freezer or microwave oven. Enhance your table with these pretty strawberries from Sears. This larger Sears retail stores. The grey clouds which deposited snow all night on the keyhole basin slopes promise more during the day as the ski lifts begin running. But not too many of the resort skiers complain. The thought of fresh powder compensates for the lack of sunshine. Two people who are complaining are ski patrol captain Skip Blanchard, because the large accumulation of overnight snow demands a new avalanche watch. And pretty beginner skier, Cindy Markick. Cindy had driven up to the Rocky Mountain Ski Resort with her Denver University roommate, Lisa Adams. During the hour-long drive from Denver, Lisa had glowingly promised Cindy fun, a tan, and look alike Robert Redford instructors. As the young women removed their rented skis from their car rack, Cindy can see that the threatening grey clouds rule out any tans today. What about the ski instructors? What about them? Where's the surplus of Greek gods you promised? Do they sleep in on overcast days like today? Cindy, give me a break. We aren't even out of the parking lot yet. Did you expect valet service from the parking lot to the slope? I expect what you promised. A little sun, maybe even a first-degree tan, and meeting some hot ski instructor I can write the folks back home about. Is that asking too much? I'd settle for a full day of skiing, sun or no sun. I know what you'd settle for. Well, it's like I always say, some of us are better at some things than the rest of us. Hey, remember, you promised to stick with me on the beginner slope. I didn't promise to babysit you the whole day. You promised to teach me how to ski. It's only my second time skiing, and I'm nervous. But I didn't promise to stay with you the whole day. When I spend $12 on a lift ticket, I'd like to get in some serious skiing. If I knew you'd plan to abandon me, I would have spent the day at Penrose Library researching Dr. Dawson's marketing paper. I wouldn't have had to get up at five in the morning, either. Nobody's abandoning you. Knowing you, after ten minutes on the beginner slope, some panting golden boy will whistle over to criticize your form and offer his ten years of snow plow experience. Of course, sir. As my best friend and only roommate, you won't ski off on me until I find a golden boy I'd enjoy spending the rest of my day skiing with. Oh, brother, do you drive a hard bargain? I took Marshall's course in sales closing last semester. Deal? Deal. It gets hot fast. John, that's a dumb way to test a hot iron. Yeah, but it's great on finger burns. What you should do is let the iron heat up, then apply your wax directly to the iron. Skip. I've been waxing skis for a long time, okay? I bet you burnt your finger quite a lot, too. Yeah, I should. Something coming in on the shortwave. I'll get it. Calling station K2XCD. Over. Station K2XCD, Keyhole Basin Ski Patrol. Want a tip on the weather, pal? Stay indoors. Big Red, how's my favorite Indian at the National Weather Service these days? My heart is heavy, and it's not from eating too much of your white-eyes fried foods. We're tracking a storm system moving fast out of the Northwest. A white-out skip. Gale force winds with enough snow to fill Rhode Island, and zero visibility, and thought you ought to know. Definitely. Thanks for the shout. Is the white-out headed for Keyhole Basin? Over. Not at the moment, but it's a 10-mile front, and we can't pinpoint a declared route yet. How's your avalanche watch? Over. Keyhole has only one avalanche slope. In the mall between our barrel-run experts and beginner slopes, John and I measured the slope strength to load pressure at 4 to 1 yesterday. Good. Even with last night's 6-inch accumulation, your mall avalanche slope is in a stable condition. I'll holler back at you if the white-out swings your way. We'd appreciate that, especially since this white-out is dropping so much snow. I've seen slopes avalanche under as little as 2 to 1 pressure. I'll catch you later, Red. Oh, I sure hope we don't catch that white-out. Too much excitement for me. You and me, both. Do me a favor. I'm not waxing your skis for you. No. Hustle me a Danish from the coffee shop. I haven't had breakfast yet, and the lips don't open for another 20 minutes. Oh, right. But I want those skis waxed by the time I get back. Aye-aye, Captain. Apple, if they got it. A mouth when you yawn. My, what a strong sense of propriety you have. Have another cup of coffee. It'll help wake you up. Another cup of coffee will send me running back to the bathroom again. Cindy, there's a table full of guys sitting behind us. Boys, don't go to the bathroom. This girl sure does. Oh, baby. Oh, look out! I didn't see you. You stepped on my Danish. Oh, I'm sorry. Is it all right? No. I tried to warn you, Cindy, but you walked right into him. Well, I'm not responsible. I was yawning. We'd be happy to buy you another Danish. Oh, it's not necessary. Breakfast is on the house for the team anyway. Oh, then you work at the resort? Cindy, didn't you notice his shoulder patch? He's the captain of the ski patrol team. Oh, really? Is that like being an instructor? Oh, boy. Miss, you've been a real day brightener. My name's Cindy. Cindy Markick. I'm a flat lander from Miami. And this is my roommate, Lisa Adams. We're DU students. Lisa's father is in oil. I have never seen this girl before in my life. Well, I'm Skip Blanchard. And, ladies, it has been a real pleasure. Sorry about you, Danish. See you on the slopes? Only if she breaks a leg, right, Skip? Hey, Skip. Goodbye, ladies. I think I found my golden boy, Lisa. He's a little older than I expected. Man, have we got trouble. The whiteout? Yeah, Red says the whiteout's a bowling ball knocking down 10 pins. It's dumping snow at the rate of 4 inches an hour. Oh, no. Headed for us? Yep. Dead center. Father's Day with exciting menswear and popular accessories. We've got quite a lineup of values, each a sure winner for Dad. Fine, complete looks, he'll wear to work out to dinner to the tennis court or the baseball game. Plus extras from ties to t-shirts, robes to wallets, underwear basics to belts. We've hit all the bases and crisis you'll like. So put Dad on Sears, Father's Day team, and he'll know you're no rookie when it comes to gift selection. Sometimes choosing a Father's Day gift almost requires an executive decision. But at Sears, I found the solution with hardly any effort at all. The lightweight executive attaché case. The man at Sears says it's their number one bestseller. And I knew Dad would go for its great fashion looks in black or brown. This four-inch molded attaché is durable, strong, and lightweight to help Dad weather those trips to and from work. The executive attaché for Father's Day from Sears. Nothing but the best for my Dad. Like Sears' best double knit slacks on sale for Father's Day. Regular cut slacks are just $13.99, that's $4 off. Choose popular solids and refined patterns and wrinkle resistant double knit for trial polyester. Top off his day with Sears' best short sleeve knit sports shirts. Also at $4 off, now just $9.99. It's Sears' best for the best guy I know, Dad. Sale ends June 16th. Prices and dates may vary in Alaska and Hawaii. All items available at most larger Sears retail stores. Rages out of the northern Rockies. Dumping snow at the frenzied rate of four inches an hour. Should the blizzard 60 mile per hour winds lock in on the warm air mass surrounding the Kehoe Basin ski resort, the added snow weight would trigger the resort's one avalanche slope in a mere four hours. Have a seat, gentlemen. What's this bad news from the National Weather Service kit? A whiteout is headed for Kehoe Basin, Mr. Haverly. I'd like your permission to delay operation and all our lifts until the whiteout danger passes. Well, this is an early morning eye opener, even for an old man like me. I think a whiteout would open any ski resort owner's eyes, Mr. Haverly. No, no, I was referring to skip suggestion to close the lifts, John. Now, what is the whiteout's ETA? An hour at the outside with a 40-minute variable. Well, it means Kehoe Basin skiers could sandwich in two runs very comfortably before this whiteout arrives. Or they could be trapped on the slopes if the whiteout hits early. Ah, people pay good money to ski my resort. Mr. Haverly, this whiteout is dropping snow at the rate of four inches an hour. That means the avalanche on the mall between the barrel run experts and beginner's slopes could slide in a few hours. Well, all right. All right, I'll tell you what I'll do. I'll cancel all ski lessons scheduled on the mall until you can update your avalanche watch tomorrow. Well, that's a good first step. Now, you understand Kehoe Basin's reputation is at stake. My lifts run until a very last minute before this whiteout hits. Am I clear? Yes, sir. Come on, John. We'll clear the mall instruction field ourselves. Mr. Haverly has its benefits. Lisa, something white is falling out of the sky. Fresh powder will skied after it snows. Fresh powder is a skier's dream. A third chair off his arse. Speaking of dreams, there must be some other way for me to meet Skip on the beginner's slope, besides breaking my leg. It's not very likely. If Skip has the day off from the ski patrol team, he'll probably be skiing the expert's slope. Here's a lift chair. Hang onto your equipment. Up we go! This is a yes! Oh, but if it wasn't snowing so hard, we'd have a nice view. Check out this skier in the yellow park up below us. Look at him work on for those moguls. Lisa, I hope I don't embarrass you later when I need help from the ski patrol team. The ski patrol team was set up to protect skiers' lives. And Captain Skip Blanchard is just the man I want protecting mine. You make a fool of yourself up there on the slopes, and I will abandon you. Hey, can't you tell when I'm kidding? No. Oh, this wind's freezing. How long before we reach the beginner's slope? This section of keyhole basin is called the barrel run. The ski lift will carry us over the barrel run expert's slope across an instruction field nicknamed the Mall, because it's so flat. And then onto the beginner's slope. Oh! The wind's rocking the lift chair so hard I can hardly hold on! Well, you better hang on. You're looking at a 40-foot drop below us. The wind whips the snow! It's a beach! I can't see where we're going. Horrible conditions like this. The lift chairs have stopped running. I'm going to shut down all the lifts. Skiers are requested to leave the expert's slope and return to the lodge. Did you say expert's slope? Yeah, this is the expert's slope. I don't care. But I know... In the middle of a whiteout, the lifts can't run in these winds. This is my second time... Well, under the circumstances, any way you can. This radio theater will continue after this message from your local station. Every one of us without exception. Yonder, old, rich or poor, black or white. Something we all have in common. Let our jobs fail our families and most important, fail ourselves. Learning to cope with tension is a never-ending process. One that begins at birth and continues to the end of life. It's one of the keys to happiness and good mental health in our time. This is Cliff Robertson. There are few of us who wouldn't welcome solid advice from a good friend on how to deal more effectively with our tensions. That friend can be your mental health association. Contact them for a copy of their pamphlet. How to deal with your tensions. To run up and down your spine, there's a creeping sensation at the back of your neck. You're listening to CBS Radio Mystery Fair. I'm E. G. Marshall, your host for these hour-long dramas of suspense, adventure and the macabre. Heard seven times a week on most of these stations? Here's a sample of what we mean. Hush, my darling. Your mother is taking care of all of you. You have nothing to fear. If those who move against us learn to power, tell her, as long as the moon is free, we rule the nights. Ours is the power and the glory. You're in health world. And I am your queen in whatever guy I choose to cloak myself. Listen here for CBS Radio Mystery Theater seven times a week on most of these CBS Radio Network stations. You're on your second ski trip ever. The lift chair carries you above the ski slopes when suddenly a biting wind pitches you from side to side, threatening to spill you 40 feet to the ground. The pelting snow stings your face. It's all you can do to hang on to your lift chair. Then out of the blinding snow, you'll finally see the crest of the slope. Equipment intact, your partner helps you land on the slope on your skis. The wind howls around your ears as the ski lift attendant tells you you are on the expert's slope. The storm has shut down all the ski lifts. On your second time skiing, in zero visibility and biting cold, how would you get down the expert's slope? But you'll have to leave this lift site. It's company orders. Even in picture? Postcard? Explain the situation to you. Freeze pretty soon if you remain on the lift site. Your friend is shivering. Rub your hands. I'm wearing thermals with two pairs of sweat socks and waterproofed snow boots. My job is to stick by this walkie-talkie and report any damage to the lifts. Now you ladies are wearing ski boots. The wind chill factor will take your feet first up here. I'm willing to take my chances. Frighten you. But your friend had better start moving around. Build up her circulation. I know what you're saying is right, but there must be some other way for her to get down the expert's slope. All right. Take the back trail down. It isn't as steep after the first quarter of the way down as this side of the expert's slope. Now stick to the trees until you reach the instruction field. They call it the mall. Real flat looking. You'll know it when you see it. Ready? Do I have a choice, Lisa? No. Look, I'll notify the ski patrol of your route on my walkie-talkie. You'll get your rescue wish after all, Cindy. I didn't want skin coming after me this way. You girls are friends of Skip Blanchard? Yeah. Tell him the girl who stepped on his Danish in the coffee shop is Skip. If that doesn't bring him running, and we'll pay him a fantastic reward for my rescue. Thanks, John. Mr. Wade? Oh, Black's fine with me. Put me in on the gory details, Mr. Wade. Well, nothing to romanticize. It happened on a mogul at the end of a long line of linked turns. I hit an ice patch. You must have scraped the surface clean of powder. Next thing I know, I can't grip my right ski pole. A broken hand makes it tough to grip anything. Indeed. I know my hand is going to feel so good when it stops hurting. A ton of snow falling outside, and I managed to hit an ice patch. It's embarrassing. Oh, we're the ones who are embarrassed. Yeah, some help we are. You break your hand, and then have to ski a mile for help. The doctor should be back at the infirmary soon. I can help him move a woman with a broken hip off the dog bird run. Well, what do I need a doctor for? You did a fine job setting my splint skip. When I'm 62, I sure hope I'm in the kind of physical condition you are, Mr. Wade. Well, I have to admit, I'm proud of being well-preserved. Barrel Run X to Ski Patrol One. Excuse me. You go ahead with your work, young man. Just leave me to moan in peace. It's the lift attendant on Barrel Run's expert slope. I haven't checked in with him since we cleared them all. Barrel Run X. Barrel Run X. This is Skip Blanchard. Move inside your windbreak, please. Your transmission is awful. Repeat. It's awful. I am inside my windbreak. Last two skiers left my liftside about an hour ago. Had a little trouble. Well, what trouble? Over. Two girls. Beginners. Said they were friends of your skip. A flighty blonde Cindy something. Said you met her over at Danish this morning. Oh, my. Yes, I remember. Well, what kind of trouble did the girls give you? I had to send them down the southern route. The southern route? That'll be on the Avalanche slope. Greg, the southern route leads to the mall. I know. I figured they could ski part of the way back after they reached the bottom of the mall. Were you aware the mall lies directly in the Avalanche path? It borders the tree line on the southern route. The Whiteout could trigger that Avalanche? Yes. You said they left an hour ago? Over an hour ago now. Well, did they plan to attempt to ski down the southern route? No. The girls planned on carrying their skis down the slope. Oh, then they're still on the slope skip. We'll have to search for them. I'm going down the southern route. I'm going after them before they step into the Avalanche field. Well, stick to the trees on the outskirt of the Avalanche path. The snow was falling so fast you could trigger an Avalanche above them if you're not careful. Okay. Skipper, this is Mr. Avaly. I heard the Boweren attendance report. Are those girls in any serious Avalanche danger? The faster snow accumulates, the greater the Avalanche hazard. The danger rate is one inch an hour. This whiteout is dumping snow at four times that rate. Well, you've got to find those girls, Skip. I'm bringing them in safely. I'll come down from above them, Mr. Avaly. I'm leaving now. Very good, Greg. They're going up the mall slope. No, snowmobiles are too loud. The fresh snow has added a lot of weight on that slope. The motor vibration could trigger the Avalanche. Well, then, how do you expect to reach those girls? John and I are going to cross country up the mall slope. Hopefully, we'll spot the girls in the blizzard. All right. Now you take your walkie-talkie and call for help if you need it. By God, you keep me posted. Nice. When it comes to buying a Kenmore refrigerator, so we're taking $50 to $100 off three models through June 30th, you save $100 on the 19 cubic foot side by side and $70 on the 17 cubic foot top freezer refrigerator.

The instruction field, the mall ends here, Skip. Then this point is where the avalanche field begins. The avalanche path extends 20 yards on both sides of us to the trees and funnels up the backside of the expert slope. Did you ever see this avalanche roll? Yeah, last year. Devastating. I hope those two girls up on the slope stick to the trees. Someone's trying to raise us on the walkie-talkie, John. Ah, here. You take the talkie. Nobody ever wants to speak to me anyway. This is ski patrol 1. Over. It sounds like it caught in the middle of a typhoon, Skip. That's worse, Mr. Haverly. It's a White Out. Well, any sign of those two young ladies? Negative. The wind whips the snow around like a sandstorm. We have a little better than zero visibility. Skip, this is Greg. Where's your position? I'm in the trees about a quarter of the way down the backside of the expert slope. That's good. You stick to the tree line. Crossing the avalanche field that high up on the slope could bring it down on the rest of us. This is Mr. Haverly. I'm speaking from the lodge. I want those girls found, but not at the risk of your own lives. Now, you're using your head up there. Mr. Haverly, the three of us are already risking our lives. Let's hope it does. A lost pole would force them to stick to the trees coming down the slope. I've probably explained what's taking those girls so long to get down the slope. They must have wasted time hunting for the lost ski pole. I think this blizzard explains their delay, Mr. Haverly. Skip's not kidding. The wind and snow are on part of the slope. Slowly down that slope, Greg. I don't want you passing those girls. These are pretty dense up here. Check each step. John and I'll start fish-chilling our way up to you, Greg. Keep your walkie-talkie line open. Your men, when you spot those girls, I don't want to be getting the dark in this thing. I'm worried sick. Roger. We should be far enough away from the trees to find a clear trail. From this angle. Greg, we can't see the girls from down here. Is that safe, Skip? Well, we're gonna find out the hard way. Greg, just in for Mr. Haverly. Back up the slopes I wouldn't accept his offer. Dinner is different. I just wish he didn't prod John into asking me to double with you and Skip. I feel embarrassed. Maybe John really doesn't want to take me out tonight. Of course he does. I saw John giving you the eye. I just helped him speak his mind. That's all. Here, let me have your skis. I'll lock them on the ski rack. Excuse me. You ladies threw skiing for the day. Yes, but I don't think you can call what we did today skiing. It was more like roller coaster. These ski lifts are running again. My friend and I were wondering if we could have your ski lift tickets. You have no idea how horrible the conditions are up on the slopes today. The wind turned all the slopes into one big sheet of ice. Still overcast, you could be caught in a blizzard like we were. Oh, far out. Sounds like a real challenge. A real test of ability up there today. Are you guys for real? Here, take our lift tickets. Let them find out for themselves, Cindy. We've had enough skiing for one day, right? You said it. Super values like the Sears Best Hillary family size tent. Now $50 off. Only $199.99. This is the tent tested and approved by the first man to conquer Mount Everest, Sir Edmund Hillary.
