This is Harry Branson at Philadelphia Mutual Life and Casualty Company.

Oh, hello, Harry. What's with you?

John, I have a case I'd like you to handle for us.

It's, uh, well, it's somewhat unusual. Have you ever handed me one that wasn't completely screwy?

I said unusual. And I said screwy, so now that we understand each other, what's it all about?

Well, absolutely nothing yet. But I'm very apprehensive about one of our clients. Oh, Harry, you're the biggest worry warrant I ever knew. What was that? I said, who is this client? Oh, Dr. Walter Merrill. Merrill? The scientist?

That's right. Nobel Prize winner? The man who worked out the molecular orbital

contraction, something or other? Yes, yes. That's the one. As I say, John, I'm worried.

Well, who wouldn't be? About him? I'll be right down to see you.

Okay. I'll be right down to see you. Bob Bailey, in the exciting adventures of the man with the action-packed expense account.
