Explore "The Radio Cop" by Vic Whitman on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
Cates was looking forward with considerable eagerness to Friday night. Any man likes to have _the_ girl see him at his best work, and certainly the radio cop excelled as an announcer. Carefully he planned his broadcast so that there would not be the least hesitation on his part. Everything must go like clockwork.
There is a saying about the best-laid plans. Friday afternoon Cates complained bitterly to Miss Anabelle: "Can you beat those commissioners? Never for a moment did I think they'd get around so quickly to switching the microphone to the new location. I'm not going to take you out there because the place is too dangerous, so we'll have to call off the exhibition."
