Summary
Box 13 presents “Delinquent’s Dilemma,” episode 26 of the series, originally broadcast February 13, 1949. This archival presentation carries supplied source metadata dated 2012. Mystery writer and former newspaperman Dan Holiday, played by Alan Ladd, receives a carefully written plea from a worried mother. Her teenage son is willing to take the blame for a robbery rather than betray the gang pressuring him, drawing Holiday into a tense case of loyalty, fear, and organized crime. 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.
