Rhythm Of Death (Aired December 30, 1950)

Starring Herbert Marshall as Ken Thurston, a private operative, with Han Conried as Egon Zellschmidt in this first incarnation of Ken Thurston\'s nemesis, and Mary Jane Croft appearing in the role of Ken\'s love interest, Nancy Bessington, a reporter and Thurston\'s erstwhile fiance. We can only interpolate from what we\'ve already turned up for this shortest run of The Man Called X, but it would appear that Hans Conried and Mary Jane Croft may have been regulars co-stars throughout that first season. One of Radio\'s most successful directors, William N. Robson, directed the first season of The Man Called X and though Gordon Jenkins appears to be credited with the music for the first season, Felix Mills is also personally cited by Herbert Marshall with at least one Music Direction credit--the season finale.
