Thank you.

While the chief pilot's men attack Hop's airport in an attempt to recapture Dr.

Tober, the mysterious Ballard trails the car in which Gale is escaping with the

inventor. Jackie helps rescue Hop and Tank from Hunter's men.

But now, as they attempt to flee, they find themselves surrounded and...

in that big packing case down there.

Let's blast them out. That's too risky.

They've got cover. We haven't. So what?

You keep them pinned down. I've got an idea.

Sounds like we're scaring them off.

cannon in there. We'd better get out of here. All this shooting's going to bring

people.

There's the car.

Sounds like they're coming back.

No. No, they're going away.

I think we scared them off.

I guess we did, Jackie.

We'd better check on Gail and Dr. Tobor.

Dr. Tobor, I want you to come with me.

What do you want of me?

Never mind, I'll tell you later.

My car is back there.

Miss Nolan, please don't try to follow us.

What are you going to do with him?

Oh, don't worry about him. He'll be all right.

Calling Palmdale Sheriff's Office.

Calling Palmdale Sheriff's Office. Come in please, emergency.

Calling Palmdale Sheriff's Office.

Calling Palmdale Sheriff's Office. Come in please, emergency.

Miss Nolan, I requested you not to follow me.

Now I'm going to make sure that you don't.

Your keys, please.

You still have your radio.

You're not helpless.

Otherwise, I wouldn't leave you here alone.

Oh, it's awfully nice of you.

I think it is, too.

they've gone. Let's have some light, Jackie.

I'm going to call the sheriff even if Mr. Arnold doesn't want me to. I'm tired

of being shoved around by Hunter's crowd.

Well, now you're cooking on the front burner.

GN calling WHH6.

This is Gail calling Hop Harrigan. Come in, Hop.

Hello, Gail. Where are you?

Are you and Dr. Tobar okay?

Over. I'm out on the country road.

And no, Tobar's not okay.

Mr. Ballard appeared from nowhere and made him get in his car.

Where did they go? Can you trail them? Over.

Well, Ballard took the keys. I'm stranded here.

Listen, Gail, I'll tell you how to start the car.

Look in the glove compartment, and you'll find a little brown envelope.

Now, in that envelope...

G.N. calling W.H.H. 6.

G.N. calling W.H.H. 6.

Come in, Hoff.

Go ahead, Kale. Over.

I got it fixed.

Good work.

Now, if you can spot Ballard, keep him in sight and call us. We'll be standing

by. Over.

Okay.

Where does this fellow Ballard fit into this thing?

Oh, he says he wants to buy Tobar's invention.

Sure goes about it in a funny way.

Maybe he's the one that tied me up and put me under that carpet in the hangar.

But I never got a look at him.

Anyway, he's not working for Hunter.

That's one thing in his favor. That's the only thing in his favor.

What do you intend to do with me? Quiet.

Why? I thought I heard a car.

Come with me.

how she started that car.

She's a clever girl.

You asked me what I intended to do with you.

I want you to take me to your secret laboratory.

There is but one way to get there, by plane.

Well, that can be arranged.

I have a better idea.

If you let me call my assistant on the radio, he'll come for us in my own

plane.

Where are you going to call from?

I have another place.

A house on the side of a hill.

Uh-uh.

I don't intend to walk into any trap.

If you're concerned about your safety, I assure you there's no one there.

I'm more concerned about your trickery, Dr. Tobor.

I've heard a lot about it.

I intend no tricks.

You wish to purchase my invention?

I want to give you a demonstration.

Is the place far from here?

No, it can easily be reached by morning.

All right.

We'll try it.

WHH6 calling GN.

WHH6 calling GN.

Hop Harrigan calling Gail Nolan.

Come in, Gail.

Over.

I can call my assistant on this.

It must be out of order. Perhaps I can fix it.

Take your time.

I'm in no hurry.

Hello. Hop Harrigan speaking.

Who's this?

Oh, Lieutenant Riley.

Say, how is Mr. Arnold?

Oh, he's doing fine. The injury was very slight. He'll be up and around as quick

as a shock for his own.

How's everything out there?

Not so good.

Uh, can I talk without anyone else hearing?

Well, if it's about that matter we were discussing, you'd better not.

Is that party still there you went out to meet?

No, that's the trouble.

Uh, remember this fellow Ballard?

Yeah, what about him?

I thought perhaps you might want to check on him.

Oh, I had.

Waste of time. He's just a playboy.

Oh, hold on a minute. Mr. Smith wants to speak to you. Mr. Smith? Who's he? He's

chairman of the board of directors for Mr. Arnold.

Oh, I remember. Yes, put him on.

Harrigan, we feel that Tober may come to your place.

Just an idea, because he's been there before and seems to trust you.

Have you seen anything of him?

All I know is he's not here now.

I didn't suppose he was.

But if he comes there, or you hear from him, let me know at once.

He must be turned over to the authorities for shooting Arnold.

I'm personally going to see that he's prosecuted for that, even though it

means we may never see his invention.

Yes, yes, of course. Here's Riley.

Yeah, huh?

No, I can't come out there now. Things are developing too fast here.

I wish you could because we're stuck.

Okay, I'll call you.

Goodbye.

Who was it, Gale? No, Riley.

And he wasn't much help.

We have reason to believe that the man Ballard may have picked up Tolbert

somewhere near Harrigan's airport.

Check on this at once with all available men.

News travels fast, doesn't it?

They'll catch me.

I've got to get registered at once.

Then do it. That's what we came for.

Why don't you answer me?

W-H-H-6.

G-N calling W-H-H-6. Come in, Hop.

W-H-H-6 to G-N.

This is Hop, Gale. Where are you? Over.

I'm out in the desert by that old adobe house.

Tobin and Ballard did it, but I've got their car, so they can't get away. But

hurry.

We'll fly on Arnold's plane. The clearing goes by where we can land.

Be careful, Gale. Don't let them see you. Over.

I won't, but please hurry.

Why don't you come in?

I can't get Rettner.

Either he doesn't answer or the radio's been damaged.

Doesn't matter now.

Doesn't matter? Why?

I've arranged for another plane.

Another plane?

Where? How?

You'll see.

I've seen your plane.

Three of us could never get into it.

I'm sorry I upset your little scheme, Doctor.

But you must remember I warned you I was looking for trickery.

Now shall we go?

Go where?

Out.

I told you I saw a plane. There it is.

So what?

We've been seeing planes all morning. Not that one you haven't. It's Arnold's.

It's Arnold's, all right.

Paragon is probably flying it. Looks like it's heading for the old Adobe

hideout. Could be.

Let's get moving.

We'll land in the clearing near that house, and we'll sneak up on him.

Good work, Gail. Oh, you sure had us scared.

Tober and Ballard are in the house. Come on, I'll show you where it is. We've

been there before, but go ahead.

Oh, but this time it's going to be different.

Lead me to them.

You better stand by the plane.

We'll start the engine.

What can Hop and Tank do to counter this seeming treachery on the part of the

mysterious Valor?

And what will they say when Kraven demands an accounting from them?

You can't afford to miss Lost in the Sky, Chapter 12 of Hop Harrigan, at this

theater next week.
