Now from November 3rd, 1951,

it's the Joe Blair murder case. Broadway's My Beat, from Times Square to Columbus Circle, the gaudiest, the most violent, the lonesomest mile in the world.

Broadway is My Beat with Larry Thor as detective Danny Clover.

The November night has a good hold on Broadway now.

Broadway purrs in its embrace, rubs its cheek against the cool touch, then stops fighting it.

And the glitter explodes, the neon rockets its scarlet into darkness, bursts into wishing stars, cascades down on the happy event.

The laughter, hoarded during the week, is spent freely now.

The budgeted dreams, have one, kid.

It's on me.

It's the long night before Monday.

Give into it.

And walk a hotel corridor past a room where gaiety is registered for the night.
