Nick's Son Chick

Juvenile thriller addicts, young or old, have a new radio hero. Chick Carter, the boy detective, is making life pretty difficult for The Rattler, a man with a foreign accent who through sabotage, blackmail, robbery and murder is trying to wreck the vital war industries of Midvale. Can Chick and his companions help Major Pennington protect his new war invention from The Rattler? (Answers given Mondays through Fridays, 5:30 to 5:45 p.m. E.W.T. over WOR-Mutual.)

Although Chick appeared only last fortnight on the radio, he has been around in detective fiction for 40-odd years, as the adopted 17-year-old son of Nick Carter, the Old Master. Nick's present writers, Walter Gibson and Ed Gruskin, are also Chick's. They revived Nick for radio last April. Though on seperate hours (Nick's time is Monday, 9:30 to 10 p.m., WOR-Mutual), Nick and Chick will visit on each other's programs, put their heads together when crime threatens to pay.
