Box 13 - "The Professor and the Puzzle" (Old Time Radio, 2012)

Box 13 presents “The Professor and the Puzzle,” originally broadcast on Mutual on January 9, 1949. Commonly cataloged as episode 21, this 26-minute mystery stars Alan Ladd as novelist-adventurer Dan Holiday, with Sylvia Picker as Suzy.

Dan responds to a plea from his friend Bob Lannan, a college professor whose engagement was shattered by the apparent suicide of his fiancée’s uncle. At Dell College, Holiday finds a troubled academic circle, unanswered questions surrounding the professor’s death, and a new murder that makes Bob the leading suspect. Written by Russell Hughes and directed by Richard Sanville.

Box 13 presents the original broadcast with a newly produced contextual introduction, a short closing announcement, and gently cleaned/mastered audio for a more consistent listening experience.
