Richard Diamond Private Detective "Hat Without A Body" (July 2, 1949)


The program switches to Saturdays at 10:00 P. M. Bert Kalmus is framed for murder in an early version of a classic scam. Dick Powell sings, "A, You're Adorable." The name Bert Kalmus was used previously on the program of June 5, 1949. Bea Kalmus was actually a broadcaster in New York City at this time. + When taxi driver Hennessey found a hat with the initials B.K. in it and blood around the rim in the gutter with a 38 gun besides it, not wanting to get involved with the police he took it to private detective Richard Diamond. Diamond knew that he should’ve taken it down to his friend Lieutenant Levinson but he didn’t have anything to do so he decided to fit the pieces in to the puzzle of the hat without a body.
