 * Possibly they were actually saying "R and I", which could mean "Records and Identification". ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots→ 14:01, 16 April 2011 (UTC)

 * I have listened to a few of the radio episodes - and it is definitely "R and I", as Bugs suggested above. According to this web page, which has a 1954 article from Time magazine, it is Records and Identification. FlowerpotmaN &middot;( t ) 15:06, 21 April 2011 (UTC)
