a fat old silver

frame I can't believe it I can't believe

to that putter Ted that's childish

nuh-uh no

my mom I think it's time you changed his

Pampers evening I'm officer Doyle oh hi

I'm glad you're here I'm Ted Lawson now

this is my wife son and daughter please

come in don't touch the door why not

well he made us keep it open why would

you do that it's freezing

outside what about fingerprints well we

don't check for fingerprints in every

routine burglary son if there's a corpse

involved that's different give us a few

minutes somebody's bound to freeze to

death Angela Lansbury says to always

keep the door open

did you make a list of the missing items

man oh yes right here Tom Cel says to

always make a

list yeah this will

help let's see a TV set silverware

jewelry oh no a jack necklace

putter

see he also took fat old Aunt

Freda for Photograph he couldn't lift

Aunt

Freda do you think we'll ever get our

stuff back officer well it depends do

you have a record of any of the serial

numbers or markings on the stolen

property no well did you save any

purchase receipts for any of the items

no well no offense folks but you're a

burglar's dream come

true did you by any chance contact your

neighbor to see if they might have seen

him I saw him you did Vicki you mean

that uh she wasn't out with the

family uh no uh Vicki doesn't like

Mexican food she's more of a nuts and

bolt

seater yeah it's just the

Staples the burglar ran out when he saw

me so she barely got a glimpse of him I

barely got a glimpse of him well uh

Glimpse isn't much but it's all we have

to go on so uh I tell you what young

lady why don't you just uh try and tell

officer Doyle what you saw huh he was 5

ft8 8 and2 in tall 153 lb light brown

hair blue eyes a mustache coverall with

L&W Plumbing on the back and he had two

quarters and a nickel jangling in his

left

pocket that's a

glimpse I couldn't describe my wife that

well except for the

mustache well Vicki's a very observant

child and uh Jamie why don't you take

Vicky to your room all right let's go

Sherlock well I'm sure the uh Plumbing

cover alls are a phony but we'll do our

best uh how did the burglar get in oh

it's right through the kitchen it's uh

this

way right through that

door oh no wonder no deadbolt lock it's

very simple all he had to do was break

the glass turn the knob easy as pie he

took some of that too

[Laughter]

I guess we really are a burglar's dream

come true sure make you feel helpless

yeah well unfortunately there aren't

enough police to go around but there is

one thing you folks can do to help

protect yourselves what's that you can

set up a neighborhood watch program it

always helps to have your neighbors keep

an eye out for anything suspicious well

does a neighborhood watch work uh very

well except in New York City there when

there's a burglary the neighborhood just

watches

I can have one of the uh other officers

help you set this up if you'd like oh

thank you that would be wonderful MH

it's a terrible feeling to walk in and

discover that somebody's been in your

home I know the feeling my home has been

hit twice and I have a watchdog to scare

them

away and a wife with a mustache

[Laughter]

so the important thing to remember is to

make it hard for the Intruder post a

neighborhood watch sign like this one so

he knows you're wise to his activities

and when you're out for the evening have

your lights on an automatic timer and

make sure your neighbors pick up your

newspaper if you're out of town my

neighbor does that when I'm

home I always put them back after I rate

him but first he cuts out the

coupons another important thing don't

ever leave your house key under the mat

well that's obvious it's the first place

they look right and the second place

they look is the flower pot next to the

front

door got to move that

key all right we've discussed the many

ways that neighborhood watch Works to

prevent crime so uh let's put what we've

learned to the test she must think we're

stupid not all of

us now let's suppose it's a typical

weekday afternoon and and uh you Mrs

Lawson see an unfamiliar vehicle parked

in the neighborhood what do you do well

I write down the license number and then

I called the neighborhood watch Patrol

and had them keep an eye on the car very

good now let's say it's a Saturday night

and uh you Mr Lawson happen to glance

out your window and you spot a stranger

let's say him sneaking around your

neighbor's house well that'd be unlikely

because he's usually sneaking around our

house

house I do not sneak around foot

that's

better well if it really were a burglar

I lert my neighbor call the police and

have this guy taken

in you never make a stick I got a

perfect Alibi every Saturday night I'm

at my lodge meeting you've heard of the

moose and the Elks we're so of their

cousins the

Caribou now if I was home and somebody

was crazy enough to invade my C Castle

Old King Brandon wouldn't need any help

from any neighborhood wash I got

something better

pow a smoking

finger I hope you have a permit for that

handgun Mr brindle you back man's got to

do something to protect his home the

criminals are winning we're losing there

are a lot of criminals behind bars that

would disagree with you Mr

brindle well folks that's about it uh Mr

and Mrs Lawson have agreed to organize

everything so good luck and I wish you a

very safe neighborhood

watch well I've got some information

forms for everyone to fill out well

thank you very much officer again no my

pleasure and you're helping us too you

sure you wouldn't like to stay for some

cake and coffee no thanks I like to
