“QUIET PLEASE, MURDER.” Tonight’s programme will be headed by the thrilling drama, “Quiet Please, Murder.” Fleg (George Sanders), a ruthless, egotistical criminal, steals a priceless Shakespeare folio from the Public Library, killing a guard during the crime. With his partner, Myra Blandy (Gail Patrick), Fleg forges and sells copies of the folio to unscrupulous collectors. McByrne (Richard Denning), a tough, unrelenting detective, traces several of the forgeries back to Myra. She and Fleg plot to “eliminate” Mcßyrne at the scene of the original crime—the public library. In the meantime, a buyer of one of the forgeries is demanding his money back —or else- — and trails the other’s to the library. There, in scenes of action, excitement and suspense, the picture comes to a thrilling climax amidst the silenceshrouded bookcases.
