“Cavalcade”
In this episode: Narrator (5), Pearl Forrester (4), Dr. Erhardt (4), Dr. Ernhardt (2)
This twisted tornado-wracked pile of stem was a microwave radio relay tower...
Now, it's garbage.
A link in our nation's complex telephone network. Minutes after the tower was felled by a tornado, service was restored by switching calls to alternate routes of the network, but a temporary tower must be erected, and quickly.

The very idea of lead in glass seems contradictory. Nonetheless, this goblet of lead crystal was made in England by George Ravenscroft back in the year 1675.
He died in 1676.
Lead glass today protects against penetrating X-rays.
And that pervert, Superman.
In this picturesque countryside, farming is the leading occupation.
Number two is murder.
