Morning. Morning.

[Music]

[Applause]

Oh, how do you do? Can I do something

for you?

Well, ma'am, I'm looking for a wife.

Well, I'm sorry. She didn't come in

here. He didn't mean that, Millie. Oh,

thank you, ma'am. No, ma'am. It ain't my

wife I'm looking for. I've been

commissioned sort of to find a wife for

a friend. And somebody suggested this

would be a good place to start looking.

If he's a friend of yours, why do you

want to find him a wife? H never mind.

Here, just put down the name and address

and give a brief description of the

model desired, and I'll see what I can

put you in touch with. This is a bit

more urgent than that, ma'am. I know

you're busy and got other things to do,

but there's $500 in it for you if you

can help me.

$500? For that, I'll get you a harum.

Who's the wife for? Oh, here's a picture

of him.

What a handsome cowboy. You mean he has

to look for a wife? Well, not the

cowboy, ma'am. That's Roy Rogers,

Jerry's ranch foreman. The other one is

Jerry Johnson.

What's the matter with him? Two left

feet? No, ma'am. He's sound. Wait a

minute. Isn't that the Jerry Johnson who

inherited a million or so acres up north

last year? Only 50,000 acres, ma'am. But

he figures it's enough to keep a wife.

Yes, I guess it is. Well, um I'm sure

Miss Love will find a way. I hope so,

ma'am.

And what is the matter with him? Is he

shy? Shy? Well, he might be, ma'am. Yes,

you can say he's shy and busy. Now,

here's the address.

It's the phoniest deal I ever heard in

my life. With a playboy like that

Johnson brat who can get his pick of a

100 dames, I'll say it is.

[Laughter]

Hey, stop looking at me like that. Well,

I've never seen a mail order bride

before. What? Me and cowboys? Oh, no.

Oh, now Bailey. Oh, Mary, I don't expect

you to go through with it. Do you think

I'd let you marry a stranger just to get

a story? Yes. Oh, Mary, I'm shocked. And

you're the girl I hired because I

thought she meant it when she said she

wanted to be a great reporter.

Where do great stories come from? Did

Richard Harding Davis get his stories on

darkest Africa sitting on a beach in

sunny

California? Are great battle stories

written comfortably behind the lines? A

great reporter goes where the stories

are. Mary, this might be your life's

opportunity. And yet you hesitate from

fear of bullets, wild animals, disaster.

No, simply because you're afraid of a

playboy, a wedding ceremony, and

cowboys.

All right, I'll go. Good, Mary. I knew

you'd do it. I'll get your tickets

already and Billy can go with you.

Well, Rogers, where's that boss of

yours? We certainly thought he'd be

here, Mr. Hawkins, or we wouldn't have

fixed up this celebration. Well, it's

too bad, but I'm afraid we'll have to

forget the whole thing. That would mean

a death sentence to all these people. Or

at least on the land expires 2 weeks

after we quit drilling, and we quit soon

if you turn us down. Well, uh, tell me,

is there some other way that my company

can run our spur line in here up to that

well without crossing Johnson's

property? No, there isn't. And yet

you're asking us to advance you enough

money to finish the well on the vague

sort of promise that we'll get the right

of way. But couldn't you give us a

little more time to get you the ride

away? Say two weeks? No, I'm afraid not.

I can't come down here every time that

Johnson thinks he might be able to see

me. Please, Mr. Hawkins.

Oh, all right. Couple of

weeks and I'll see if we can find Jerry.

See you in town.

The best place to look for him is under

the bar at the Frontier Lodge. We'll go

for the wrench first. Suppose he didn't

show up at the picnic because he changed

his mind about the rideway contract.

Then I'll have a picnic breaking his

neck.

Hey Jerry, wait a minute.

Your foreman was trying to flag you

down. Jerry foreman I that was my nurse

mate. That guy's a pain in the neck.

Looks like they're gone for the day.

Well, I might as well get my chores

done. Wait a minute. Let the boys do it.

We're going to the lodge. We might be

able to head him off before he gets

there.

You better stay sober to your bride if

he gets here. I wish you'd quit ribbing

me. Honestly, do I look like a kind of a

guy who would order a wife by mail?

Exactly. You'll find out I'm not ripping

her when she shows up at the lodge.

Oh boy, what a load I must have been

carrying when I pulled that one. Lucky

you got to help me. I'll be a good guy.

Have somebody else take care of her. Put

her up at your lodge for a few days.

Show her a good time. Charge it all to

me, but leave me out of it. I'll do the

best I can. In the meantime, I don't

think you ought to run over that wagon

up

ahead. That bug board will hold him for

us.

[Music]

That guy is going to blow his brains out

with that horn. I guess he expects it to

go straight up so he can drive under us.

And get those hay burners out of the

road. The road's a little narrow. Oh, I

can squeeze by.

Jerry, will you

stop?

[Music]

Heat. Heat.

[Music]

The driver's all right. How's the

ladies?

Weren't we in enough danger? Did you

have to come flying through the air and

scare the horses worse? Why couldn't you

have yelled whoo? The girls are very

much alive. Frog, don't jump to

conclusions, cowboy. Hold a mirror up to

our mouths. I'm not jumping. I've

already decided you can take it. Though

your girlfriend deserves a good shaken

up. Oh, all right. So, you stop the

horses, but you also drive the wheel off

the wagon. Now, how do we get to the

Frontier Lodge? Walk, I guess. Rory, you

can't leave two lovely ladies out here

like this, even if one of them is Arry.

You just take us up a taxi.

Taxi frog.

[Music]

I'm sure I've seen you someplace. Well,

you probably have if you've ever been

out here before. I'm Foreman over at the

Jerry Johnson ranch. Jerry Johnson? You

know him? Oh, I've heard of him. What's

he like? He's like the guy who just

crowded you off of the road. Oh, so that

was Jerry Johnson. Huh? Speedy, isn't

he? He needs plenty of rideaway and

generally gets it. He's evidently dead

at your fenders. No, I give him plenty

of room. The only reason we're still

working for him is that we promised his

dad would stick around and keep things

going.

Well, after he's married, maybe he won't

need you. Nobody will ever be able to

hold him still long enough to marry him.

That's where you're wrong, cowboy. I

came out here to attend his wedding.

Surprise? Not in anything he does. I'm

surprised at the company you're keeping,

though.

I'm not so sure of the company I'm

keeping now. You might be a holdup man

on the side. You've certainly got enough

guns. What about that notch in your

rifle? Does that mean you've killed

somebody? No, that means that somebody

took a shot at me and hit the rifle

instead.

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

What happened at the well today? The

railroad company wouldn't kick in with a

dough, but it gave them two more weeks

to get Johnson's signature on the

rideway contract. It's still

okay. By that time, they'll have to come

to me for the signature, and they're

likely to get it, provided they give me

a big enough interest on their oil well.

Where is Jerry? Bucking the roulette.

Keep mad. He's expecting company. Okay,

but he's losing his shirt. It's all

right. Let him go as far as he likes.

All

right. Well, it's none of my business

how deep he gets into you, boss. But I

heard some guys talking the other day

and they say Jerry can't pay off a

nickel. His old man fixed it in the

wheel so the kid can't sell his

property. That's right. I don't get it.

Then how are you going to take over and

him getting married too? There'll even

be less chance. I guess I ought to keep

you better informed,

Steve. That wedding was my idea. Jerry

can't sell the ranch. And here's where I

might need your help. His widow could if

he was married and had a widow.

[Music]

They're here. Okay, I'll be right off.

The bride's here. Stick around, Jerry. I

want to see her

first. The girls have arrived here

already. Well, that's all right. Lucky

promised to keep him away from me. I'll

keep out of sight.

[Music]

Well, you have quite a place here.

And lucky. Lucky. Here I am.

It seems to me somebody said you were

shy, but I didn't expect to find you

hiding under a roulette table. Well, how

can I tell you? It'd be so beautiful.

You'll soon find out how shy he is. But

first, we're going to have a big get

acquainted pre-wedding party tonight.

What do you mean a big get acquainted

party? We have plenty of time to get

acquainted after we're married. We'll

make it a wedding party. Get married

tonight. Oh. Oh, please. Now, a girl

likes a little time to think it over.

Oh, no. I mean it. You came out here to

marry me, didn't you? Oh, yes, but not

tonight. Well, okay. Okay. We won't get

married tonight. We'll have a big party.

Like Lucky says, we get married

tomorrow. Lucky, take care of

everything, will you? I'll be glad to.

I'll get the girls set.

[Music]

Enjoying yourselves? It's a wonderful

party, Lucky. A wonderful party. You

know, I'm getting very enthusiastic

about Mary. It's going to be swell to

have a wife out on the ranch to cook for

me and men my socks. And and hey, why

don't you get a wife, Lucky? You ought

to get Millie that'll get a wife for

you, too. Haven't you got a wife, Mr.

Miller? Why do you think they call me

Lucky?

What's the matter? Oh, that's Judge

Pebble. Judge Pebble.

What do you want? Just a couple of

minutes of your time. I'm sorry to

interrupt your party, but there's a

little matter your neighbors want to

know about. Oh, come back, mate. Yes,

we're giving a party. There's no time to

talk business now. Sit down and enjoy

yourself. Oh, ask the judge to join the

party. You mind just as well? Because

I'm not going to talk to anybody till

after my party. Oh, pardon me. Pardon

me, please. This is Miss Hardigan and

Miss Love. Especially Miss Hardigan.

Take a good look at her because she's

going to be your new boss. I've met the

ladies before.

Did you say new boss? That's right.

We're going to be married in the

morning.

I really did put my foot in it, didn't

I? I'd like to wish you the best of

luck, Miss Hardigan. I'll be glad to

take orders, Bunny. But I wish you'd use

your input. Tell him if he wants to do

something to sing a song. He sings

pretty good. I didn't come here to sing,

Jerry. I thought I'd tell him. I think

it'd be very nice. I tell you what I'll

do. You sing a song and afterwards I'll

talk to you about the right away. Is

that a promise? Yeah, sure. Sure,

[Music]

sure. Just a moment, folks. Our old

friend Roy Rogers is going to give us a

song.

[Music]

When they sing, you look for a silver

lining. It is silver dollars they're

looking

for. You will find my friend.

that the rainbows

in is somewhere around your kitchen

door. The bird with feathers of blue is

waiting for

you. Back in your

own

backyard, you'll have the world at your

feet. A haven

[Music]

complete back in your own

backyard. Oh, you can go to the east, go

to the west, but someday you'll

come. Weary at heart back where you

started

from. You'll find your happiness

lies right under your eyes.

is back in your

own

[Music]

backyard. Now, do you have something to

say to the judge? Yeah. I don't think

it's a good deal and I'm not going to do

any more about it till I think it over a

little longer. You mean you're not going

to let the railroad cross your property?

[Music]

Yeah, that's just about what I mean.

Well, I've known you to do a lot of

crooked things, Jerry, but this is the

dirtiest low down deal I ever heard of.

Go over and stop it. Wait a minute. Roy

was invited this party, but you wasn't.

Just for that, Rogers, you're too late.

I quit.

Come on, Frog.

Oh, look. goes really maybe frog's here.

So you girls run in the house for a

minute. I want to talk to that guy.

What's that for? I told you I was

quitting. That's my gear. All that stuff

yours? Well, some of it belongs to the

boys. Well, what's it doing out here? I

think they want to tell you themselves.

Well, they'll get a chance right now.

And Rogers, if you talk them into

walking out on me, you won't leave this

ranch in one piece.

Why don't you just tell him the whole

thing and let's go home? I can't get him

to listen long enough. Oh, just let me

get my hands on that bulldog, Bailey. Do

you think we ought to get Roy to help

us? Start another fight? No. Well, maybe

I could find Frog. I know he'd help me.

Yes, that's it. We've got to get out of

here.

They're all walking out on me. The dirty

double crosses. It's Royy's fault. He

talked them into it. I'll fix him. But

Jerry, I'm sorry things have gone wrong

and you're so upset. But there's

something I have to tell you. It's about

us. Why I came up here and why I married

you. Mary, I don't care why you married

me. The fact you did suits me. Right

now, I want to get this business with a

boy settled. I'll kill it guy. But

Jerry, what you don't know about me is

that I Mary, will you please not bother

me now? I want to get this thing

straightened out. Rogers is pulling a

fast one on me.

Hello. Let me talk to the sheriff.

But you just got here. I know. We just

got here and we just want to leave. Oh,

Frog, it's a long story. Everything's

gone wrong. We want to go back to the

lodge and then take the train home.

Well, I'd like to take you, but Roy's

waiting for me. Oh, Frog. I came to you

because I thought you were the one big

strong unafraid man we could depend on.

Well, I'll take you all right in the

jalapy. I don't feel very strong when

you look at me like that. Ah, you're a

darling. Well, come on. Okay, but you

better make it

fast. Get

[Music]

trigger. Get over.

Was that some Mario monkey business?

She's not running away from me. Well,

she's not running away from me either.

While I catch her, I'll give her a

lesson she won't forget. But first, I'm

going to settle with you.

Jerry

[Music]

What's all the shooting about? Oh,

Jerry's going haywire and somebody's

liable to get hurt. I'm going after

him. I'll be along with the rest of the

boys.

[Music]

Gary. Hey, Gary.

[Music]

Stop. Heat. Heat.

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

Heat. Heat.

[Music]

Okay, trigger back up.

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

Hello, chair.

You couldn't arrive at a better time. Is

he dead? Very.

Drove right over the side there. Been

drinking. Yes, but it wasn't the

accident or the alcohol that killed him.

There's a little matter of a bullet hole

in his head. We thought we heard a shot

down the line.

Roy, I'm sorry about this. Jerry phoned

and said he'd been having trouble with

you. I didn't suppose was this serious.

Well, you don't think I killed him, do

you? You've gone crazy, sheriff. Well,

that belute probably shot that hole in

his own head. He was running wild. He

didn't shoot himself. There was a bullet

hole through the windshield. From there

on, you're going to have to figure it

out. Let me see your guns.

That hole in the windshield was put in

there by a rifle bullet. Went clear

through.

[Music]

Why, that's not your gun, Roy.

[Music]

Sorry, Roy, but you're under arrest.

Sheriff, that's not my rifle. That means

whoever killed Jerry was still here

while I was down in the gorge. Don't you

think you ought at least take a look

around? I aim to, but not until after

I've taken you in.

That kind of puts me on the spot,

doesn't it? I'm afraid it

[Music]

does. You're being mighty foolish, Roy.

Maybe so, but it looks like if anybody's

going to catch the guy who really killed

Jerry, it's going to have to be me.

[Applause]

What do we do now? Looks like there's

only one thing to do. Let's ride back to

town on one horse and get up a posi.

What now? I'm going to talk to Miller

and check up on his honor, the judge.

You want me to go with you? No, you go

back to the room and wait. I've got to

call in for Bailey and I don't want to

miss it. No matter what happens, if you

get him on the wire, hold him there till

I get back. I don't care if it takes all

night. Okay.

Is Mr. Miller in his office? Well, I

think he went down to the tack room,

Mrs. Johnson. Thank you.

Oh, hello, Mrs. Johnson.

I was told I could find Mr. Miller here.

Well, he was here and left. Thank you.

[Music]

They caught Rogers. Not that I know of,

man.

What made you think they'd captured

Rogers, Miss Johnson? Oh, I just

wondered if they had That'll probably

take some time the way he knows this

country. The clerk said you were looking

for Mr. Miller. He asked me to tell you

he's in his office now. Thank you.

[Music]

[Applause]

Get rid of that. What do you want me to

do with it? I don't care. Bury it. Throw

it in the river. Anything but advertise

it for sale in the newspapers. Okay.

Hey, Steve. Speaking of newspapers, just

reminds me where I seen that day before.

You mean? Yeah. Mrs. Johnson. She was in

the newspaper office when I went there.

She works there. She's a reporter. You

sure of that? Positive. Come on. I was

lucky to hear this.

I want Bailey and nobody else. And if he

isn't there, I want you to tell me where

I can find that low-lying double

crosser. Oh, Mary, how could you talk

about me like that? With no effort at

all. Where have you been? You promised.

Yes, Mary. I know. I promise. But But

I'm a sick man. Well, can I help it if I

got Can I help it if I got sick?

Oh, that's all right, Mary. I knew that

you'd understand. Now then, tell me,

what have you got so far,

Lucky Miller? Holy smokes. Do you think

he bumped him off personally? No, it

begins to look like a community project

with Jerry Foreman doing the actual

killing and Miller directing the show.

All right, now listen, Mary. I'm going

to tell you just what to do in the

morning. Turn over all your facts to the

law out there and shoot in your story

and hop the first train back here. Okay.

And bulldog, I'm sorry you're sick. Oh,

that's all right, Mary. I'll get along.

Good luck, Mary.

She'll need more than luck. You were

right. She is a reporter and she knows

enough already to cause a lot of

trouble. Maybe I better go up and have a

talk with her. Not here on the

lodge. You better go along with her when

she takes her ride in the morning. Show

her lookout point on the cliff trail,

but don't let her get too close to the

edge. There's a 500 ft drop there.

How you figure to do it? You going in

the lodge and ask the desk clerk if you

can see Mrs. Johnson? Well, maybe if

there's no other way. Yeah, maybe she'll

come to the jail and see us on visitors

[Music]

day. We better not go by the trail.

That's just the way we are going. That

could be the lady we're looking for.

[Music]

This is Lookout Point, Miss Johnson. You

can see clear across to your ranch from

here. Well, I'm not going to look over

it. I get dizzy when I stand on the

thick rub. Your ranch house is in that

far clump of trees. I'm not going to

look again. It makes me want to jump.

Oh, Millie, don't be childish. Never

mind. Your horse won't want to jump.

Morning, folks. Why? It's

Roy. Rogers.

I wouldn't do that. Coron. Look.

You still ain't been invited to the

party, Steve.

Frog. Hello, Millie. Throw your gun

away, Steve. You ain't going to need it

anymore. Yeah, toss it over the cliff.

Now that the dramatic's over, maybe

you'll go on about your business. My

business is with you, ma'am. I want to

talk to you about the ranch and that

railroad rideway. I have nothing to talk

about with you. Then I'll have to

insist. Then it'll be in jail because

I'll have the sheriff on your trail in

another half hour.

I still intend to talk to him. I guess

we better find a place with a little

more privacy.

Frog, bring Millie along as a chaperone.

Why, Frog? You're kidnapping me.

You see the sheriff, tell him we went

that way.

I'd like to have music with this. Okay.

[Music]

You know, I believe if you knew how

important that rightaway is to the

people in this neighborhood, you'd let

them have it right now. I'm not

interested in what you do or don't

believe, Mr. Rogers. Well, you can be as

stubborn as you like, but in this case,

you're going to do as I say, I saw Jerry

after you killed him, so I know what

you're capable of, but you can't

frighten me into doing anything I don't

want to do. I'm sure glad you're not my

jury. They'll at least hear my side of

the story. And I'm getting awful tired

telling you I didn't kill Jerry. Then

why are you hiding out up here? And why

are you trying to force me into this

land deal? And why are you tied up with

somebody like Lucky Miller? Miller?

Well, I'm not tied up with him or

anybody else. I happen to know better. I

saw your rifle in his tack room at the

lodge. Buck Walers has probably got it

cleaned up nicely for you by this time,

ready to use again.

Are you sure you saw my rifle at the

lodge?

Absolutely. If you remember, I commented

on the notch once before, although I was

surprised you hadn't cut another one in

it.

Brogue H.

[Music]

It's not there, Buck.

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

What is this, Roy? A necktie party. If

you don't talk and talk fast,

you've gone crazy, Roy. I got nothing to

talk about. Then maybe you're going to

think of something. Trigger is a

well-trained horse, Buck, and he'll

string you up to that raptor like a

monkey on a stick when I tell him to.

Now then, why did you kill Jerry? Me? I

wasn't within 20 miles of Johnson when

he got killed. That's not the right

answer. Come on.

Stop, Roy. I didn't do it. Then who did?

[Music]

Ed, come with me.

That rope's just about run out, Buck.

And I can only stop him so fast. But I

didn't kill him. You can stretch my

neck. It won't do any good. That's the

truth. I didn't kill him. Stop that

horse. But you know who did kill him. I

don't know nothing about it. Don't Roy.

Stop.

[Music]

Then what were you doing with my rifle?

Speak up

quick. Don't. Please don't. Roy,

[Music]

send the sheriff down here. Dump that

guy into my office. Wait a minute.

I haven't got your rifle. I buried it.

Colin told me to after that newspaper

woman seen it here. Newspaper woman?

Mrs. Johnson? Yeah. And Lucky knows it.

Yeah.

Where you going? To get the sheriff. I

want you to tell him what you told me.

[Music]

You're a dead man, Roy, if you move a

finger.

As a matter of fact, Sheriff, I'm glad

to see you. That's just about what you

said the last time. Take his gun.

I was on my way to get you. What are you

talking about? Buck Walters has a story

about who killed Jerry Johnson, and it

wasn't me. I don't believe it. Well, you

will. All right, let's go.

[Music]

So you got him, huh? Good. Buck. Walters

in there. He certainly is. With a knife

in his back and Royy's lar around his

neck. Well, I just left him. He was all

right then. He isn't all right now. He's

dead.

Hey, Roy. It's me, Frog.

Where have you been? Frog. Asleep. Oh,

no. Honest I ain't. He went and slugged

me. Who? Lucky. He tried to get me tell

him where the girls was, but I fooled

him. I sent him clean to the north fork

of the Heila River. You sent him where?

The ghost town near the

north.

North south. Oh my goodness. That's

where they

are. This toothache. Roy must do a thing

like that. Well, how long ago did they

leave? Oh, about an hour.

Well, I'm getting out of here. Let me

have your gun. I ain't got no gun. Lucky

took it away from

me. Let me have your gun built.

[Music]

Now listen. Get Trigger and have him

ready. Keep an eye on the sheriff. He's

out front. Leave it to me.

[Music]

You can't see Roy if that's what you're

figuring on, Frog. Oh, I didn't come

into town to see him. One of my wisdom

teeth been hitting me on the head, and I

come in to let the dentist take a look

at it. I wish I hadn't. Why not?

[Music]

[Music]

and then he took a gimmick with a needle

that long and shoved it into my mouth

and stabbed me. Oh, I'll bet my

grandappy felt that clean back in

1865. Oh, don't laugh at way. Tell

[Music]

you, just as I'm beginning to feel like

my face belongs to somebody else, what

does he do but wheel in a gadget with a

grindstoneone on it that big and shoves

it in my mouth and crawls in after it

and gives me one of the

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

Look out.

[Music]

[Music]

Wow. Look, I don't mind these shortcuts,

but that one goes right into the pearly

gates, and I can't play no har. You

better take the other road around.

[Music]

Try. You'll break your neck.

[Music]

Parks, you stay here with the horses.

The rest scatter around.

[Music]

All right. Line up against the wall.

[Music]

Oh, rats. Looks like we're being

rescued.

What do you plan to do with us? I'm

writing the end of your story for you.

Too bad the boys had to be in on it. Tie

them

[Music]

up.

[Music]

Heat. Heat.

[Music]

The horse is going to use a hand out

[Music]

[Music]

here. All

right, call your men off, Lucky.

Hurry

[Music]

up. Wait a

minute. Hold it, boys. Everything's

under control.

[Music]

Keeping busy, boys. Come on, Bob. We

better get the girls out of here.

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

Where are the saddles, Bob? Oh, they're

back in the

store. We'll hit the horses to the

wagon, Mary. Heat.

[Music]

Heat.

Ready, Roy? Yeah. Turn it.

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

Where are the rest of the horses? Pete

and Jim still round them up. I'll give

him a hand. You too.

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

Ry, give me a gun. I'll show them

Jasper's house. Here you

[Music]

are. Just like a shooting gallery, Roy.

All right, it's time to move, boys. Come

on,

[Music]

Russian. You looking for us?

[Music]

I'm out of shells. You got any? Yeah, a

few.

[Music]

There goes his gun. Here's our chance.

We ain't got no more shells. We don't

need any of them. I'll take the horses.

You take the wagon.

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

Heat. Heat.

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

Let's Come on.

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

Hey girl, get out quick. You two broke.

Well, yeah, but never mind the

questions. Now, give me your hats and

get out of sight quick.

Ah, goat.

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

It's

[Applause]

[Music]

sheriff. Looks like Old Man River did

the job for us.

[Applause]

You men are under arrest. I'll take that

gun. Would you mind telling me what this

is all about? Mr. Johnson told me enough

to send you up for life.

Roy,

are you all right? Yeah, I'm all right.

A little wet.

There's your right of way. Thank you.

And here's our company shift for

$10,000. There's plenty more where that

came from if you need it. You can't know

what this means. There it is, folks.

Just one other little matter of business

before we bring this first annual

meeting to a close. Mary here feels that

she'd like to do something as a sort of

a monument to the memory of Jerry and

his father. So she's going to throw the

whole Johnson property into our

cooperative oil company. Share and share

alike.

[Applause]

So Mary, we

all meetings.

Rocky, I'm coming back to you.

Well, Mary, I suppose you'll be getting

back to your newspaper where there's a

little excitement. Excitement? Roy, uh,

may I say that in your quiet country

way, you boys up here managed to make a

newspaper office look about as exciting

as a Tilly Wings tournament. And, uh,

another thing, guess again if you think

you're going to get me out of here

before our oil well comes in. You mean

you're going to stay a while? Well, gee,

that's great, Mary. That'll give us a

chance

to you and I. I mean, why don't you sing

it, cowboy? Maybe I

[Music]

better along with the tumbling tumble.

We are

behind. Know where to go but I'll

find just where the trail

will drifting along with a tumbling

tumble be I

know when night has

gone that a new world born at dawn.

Honest Millie there comes a time in

every man's life when he's just got

a my tooth. It's hard for me to talk.

Oh, gone. Frog. Say it. Well, sooner or

later, every man frog.

My toothach's gone.

Oh, but what were you going to say,

Frog? Sooner or later, every man's got

to have his tooth full. Oh,

Frogen. And as you travel along those

veins of grave, they all unravel and

pull you home where you stay. Cuz

highways are happy ways when they lead

the way to home.

[Applause]
