They're great. Now. Here's our story It is after hours in the Eureka cafe and the moods of Dale Evans Pat Brady and Roy Rogers range from bright Enthusiasm to plain. Oh, well to downright disgust. I don't know what the West is coming to I never see anything like it Say this is going to be even prettier than I thought it would be how do you like it Pat? Oh, all right a guest Dale. Hey are all those decorations good to eat sure of all the ways for a city to celebrate its Centennial get a little this list of events they're having in Zena. Hey, even them little silvery and pearly balls Sure, they're called silver inies and pearl runes But they're made of sugar just like these roses and stars an exhibit of early French paintings in the spatial showing of unmounted pearls at the Musi now I'll spell the sheriff's name out with these silver ones and use the pearly ones for curly cues Hmm, you know it tastes pretty good Pat Brady you cut it out a Carnival with rides for young and old I gave up merry-go-rounds before I was 10 years old Oh, I still get kind of a kick out of a Ferris wheel Roy You still it feels so awful when you stop at the top and a cookie bacon and cake decorating contest If that isn't a rip-roaring centennial program I never heard of one no rodeo know nothing well I don't see what's the matter with it. I'm decorating this cake to enter in the contest What well certainly the sheriff's birthday is Thursday, and I always surprise him with a cake anyway And if I could just win that hundred dollar prize Well, the heart fund drives on now and the Easter seal campaign will be coming up You know I wouldn't mind going over to Zenith for one day at least I get a sort of a boot out of a carnival You kids run back and forth all you like, but I'm not going to even read the Zenith newspaper until their centennial celebrations over But the Zenith centennial turned out to be not quite as dull as Roy Rogers had imagined Born an old stable behind the museum I tell you professor, they're wise to me and slugger We got word the marshals shaking down every inch of the carnival and everybody connected with it Yeah, we got to find someplace to stash these pearls till the heat's off. Oh, right. All right I'll take care of the look professor for your information. You're getting a little suspicious of you, too You're new in town, you know that they don't find the pearls at the Carney They'll be searching you next. Where'd you hear that? That's what the boys are saying Well, I won't take any chances even with a fourth rate cop like the Zenith Marshal I'll hide the pearls and we'll pick them up when the centennial's over. Where are you gonna hide them? Never mind But I'm visiting the home crafts exhibit as soon as it closes for the night The cake that one and I think the decorations could be all they're just a trifle without anyone knowing the difference And Now on the closing day of the zenith centennial we find Roy Dale and the sheriff in the Eureka cafe. I Really ought to be running along. Oh, don't go sheriff Pat'll be back any minute and well He's bringing something from the centennial that I want you to see you mean a sort of a surprise That's what they'll mean sheriff, but don't you go guessing now? Oh, I wouldn't do that Uh must be something special though Dale your eyes are shining like seven hundred and sixty eight dollars Well, maybe they're shining like a hundred dollars. You see I got some mighty good news this afternoon You're a smart cookie all right Dale, or maybe I should say smart cakey well, I Might as well wait for Pat sort of taking the day off It's my birthday, you know You know Some doings over in Zenith, huh? Oh, man. I wouldn't have gone within 10 miles of that centennial I don't mean the centennial. I mean the jewel robbery Jew robbery sure they had some sort of an exhibit of pearls at the museum and somebody listed them a couple of nights ago Gee, I didn't know that well That's what you get for boycotting the zenith paper I didn't know about it myself until it's more in the Marshall call me and wanted my advice Well, maybe some of the rest abouts from the wild wild carnival with rides for young and old No, the Marshall said he went over the ground and everybody connected with the show with a fine tooth comb and all he found was Two stolen watches then he figured the new museum curator they got over there might be the culprit But he evidently came out with clean hands, too. Well, chef, why don't we go over there? Why don't we do it tomorrow? Like I told Marshall this is my birthday and I don't want to go chasing after I don't know who Especially when the town's out of my jurisdiction. It's getting awfully late. I wonder what could be keeping Pat Yeah, he ought to be back. Of course. He was driving Nellie Bell and you can't Gee willikers this sure is a pretty cake And that hundred bucks dale one ain't to be sneezed at either Hmm, I wonder if I'm allergic to something maybe this dusty road Boy, I'm hungry. I bet I could snitch two or three of them shiny decorations and they'll ensure if I'd never know the difference Oh, whoa there Nellie Bell. Oh Hmm, I better wait till these riders get by though before I uncover the thing if any dust got on a point Dale would never forgive me My gosh mask man, don't reach for those guns reach for the birds now look What's the idea? Go ahead man? Take his guns and toss them in the ditch slugger. Sure. Sure Well, look my guns are the most valuable things I got with me if you don't want those Why shut up and keep reaching how about that little bucks you got the prize for the cake that ain't mine Never mind the money take what we want and get going now look. Don't you lay a hand on Nellie Bell? What is two-bit jeep? Hey, what do you want with that cake? Never mind handle a gentle slugger? Sure, sure on your horses and get going man. I'll meet you at the hideout, right boss Hurt you look here that cake was a special birthday present for a friend of mine. Give him a necktie Oh, neither my friends or I want to be followed right away By the time you get those fix you'll be too tired to follow us How do you like that? He shoots out my tires and says when I fix them, I'll be too tired What a lousy saint of humor. Well, I better go pick up my guns It didn't take a darn thing, but the cake if that don't take the cake Here comes Pat at last. Well, it's about time. Hey, Nellie Bell sought a limpin. Limpin is right She's running on three tires and one rim. Well, goodness Pat isn't carrying anything If you want to win forgot that Well that surprise Hey Pat, we've been expecting you for the last hour. What held you up? Three arm mask men and they shot out two of Nellie Bell's tires and only had one spare You were actually held up. Yeah, I sure was they rode up on me by surprise while I was stopping to snitch a little snitch off The sheriff's birthday cake had Brady. Oh, I mean well, I didn't actually get around to snitching it Dale Just a minute. This is serious. What did the bandits get Pat? Not a dog-gone thing except the sheriff's cake Dale did you go and decorate a birthday cake for me again? Well, yes, Sheriff and it won first prize at the centennial and now Pat's gone and done this Pat Are you sure it wasn't some kind of a joke? Well, you wouldn't have thought so if you'd have seen them guns and heard how tough them fellas talk Well, no mask man are getting away with my cake. What did happen Pat? Oh about four miles out of town to the fellas rode off toward the snake canyon country with the cake and the other one seemed To head back towards Zena. Well, come on. I'll lend you a horse if you can't take Nellie Bell. You ready Roy? Well, I don't think so sheriff. I think you two can handle it alone And there's something else I really ought to do take bullet with you. He's right outside. Well, I'm with you sheriff Can I take the rest of the day off Dale? Well, I guess so Pat That cake may not mean much to you Roy, but I must send a mental back Well Roy, why didn't you go with them? Maybe it isn't much of a robbery, but well after all they're friends of yours and Well, I just put a lot of work in on that cake. I know Dale I hope we'll get it back. Now suppose you saddle buttermilk and ride into Zena with Trigger and me into Zena Well, what in the world for I'd sort of like to take a look around that museum How about them? How about them? How about those grape nuts flakes? How about those grape nuts flakes? How about them? How about them? Yep, how about those grape nuts flakes? Take an old hands advice partners tomorrow when you roll out of your bunk Corral a bowl full of that great energy given cereal grape nuts flakes Grape nuts flakes are called the great two minute energy cereal because Two minutes after you polish off a bowl full their power household weed energy starts to go to work for you That's the kind of quick energy you fellas and gals need You'll go for grape nuts flakes sugar roasted flavor. It's delicious So ask mom to get you a grape nuts flakes the two minute energy cereal Look for Roy's picture on the front of the package Eleven's decorates a cake and wins first prize at the zenith centennial But as pat brady is bringing it back He's held up by masked men and the cake is taken from him as he and the sheriff ride out after the mescrants Roy and Dale go to zenith to visit the ball places the museum It's nice of you to give us your time professor gauge. Oh, not at all not at all I do anything to get those pearls back I'm new here, you know, and this robbery will cost me my position and my reputation and Well, everything we understand the marshal gave you sort of a bad time yesterday I should say so it's highly embarrassing, but I guess I satisfied in hey, uh, what did the pearls look like? I mean how big were they? Oh Various sizes all unmounted of course. Oh lovely things. I wish I'd seen them How did the thieves get into the museum? Why uh, uh Through the back door Yes, they uh, jimmied it open. Well, it still sounds to me like some of the carnival roustabouts are responsible Yes, that's my opinion too After all some of them used the old stable behind the museum for their horses They slept there themselves for all I know Let's go out there and take a look around. Can we go out the back way? Oh, certainly, sir Are you enjoying it here in zenith professor gauge? Well moderately up to now say, uh, you're from the east, aren't you? Do you ride or anything? Oh heavens. No, I simply don't have the time for it. Well, you'll generally find me with my nose in a book Well, that isn't a bad place to have it sometimes If I had stuck mine in the newspaper the last couple of days This pearl robbery might not have gotten so far out of hand Doubt about it pat There's one set of tracks heading back along the road and two sets leading up into snake canyon Well, the two sets of tracks were the ones that took your cake. All right, then. What are we waiting for? Hey bullet seems more interested in a single track. Let him follow it if he wants to Hey, that's a good idea. He'll come back and let us know if he finds anything Go ahead bullet Come on boy. Get up there you How nice of Dale to want to surprise me with that cake I just hope we can surprise her by bringing in the fellas are stolen. Yeah, I hope so too Now I'm anxious to get back to nally bell. You know, she's standing out there with only three cars and her left front wheel might be getting cold Well, nally bell wouldn't do as much good in this kind of country My uncle fred had an expression Get a horse and in this case it applies. All right, sheriff. I ain't beefing Nally bell sure couldn't take these sharp turns and squeeze through these little gullies like this old plug is doing Keep the rise on the ground lads. We don't want to lose these prints It wouldn't matter much if we did. There's no other place for those bandits to go except snaking through here That's right. It's like the labyrinth of the minotaur. Uh, come again Greek mythology path. You wouldn't necessarily understand. Here's something you'll understand Oh hit the dirt chap. Head up with your hands up. You haven't got a chance Those rocks above us we ran into a trap. Let's stay right where you are Here with the jeep, huh? Slugger take his guns away from him again. I got him, curly And now I'll take yours fella Hey curly This geezer's got a star on him. He must be the law. You bet on the law These the fellas were looking for pat. Yeah, they're the ones that stole your cake. All right But I guess they were looking for us too. I'll give you 15 seconds to give us back our guns and give up that case That tin star don't talk very loud when you haven't got artillery to back it up Of your horses now you two I guess there isn't much else to do is there sheriff They aren't going to pay any attention to my ultimatum. I guess the risk for now anyway Don't try anything now There's nothing they could try squeezed in here between two pairs of 45s But I get some ropes around them slugger and we'll let them walk on up to the hideout But what do we do with them when we get them there? A boss will decide that he'll be here after it's dark Meanwhile, we'll let him sit and look at the cake You can see the carnival roustabouts have been in rogers, but they haven't left many clues No, wish we had something besides candlelight. That's a nice horse professor gauge Does he belong to the carnival people? Oh, of course not. He belongs Well, come to think about it. I don't know who he belongs to Hey, use a jacket or something hanging on this post. Hey, bring the candle over here. Will you deal? Sure, Roy I suppose we won't find anything but I'll just look through the pocket Well, I I don't know that you'd better after all at someone else's jacket Well, don't worry professor gauge You don't need a warrant to look through an open premises like this and Roy's deputized, of course It's a pretty good jacket to belong to the carnival roustabouts probably his dress-up outfit Uh, why don't we go back to the museum rogers? If the men who are using this table are the jewel thieves and they should find us in here Well, they might be dangerous Might as well. I guess I want to look at that back door again. Anyway, it was supposed to be jimmied open But I didn't notice any marks on it. Wait a minute. Roy. There's some little round things in the pocket of this jacket The pearls they've hidden the pearls out here. Hold the candle a second, Roy No, no, they're certainly not pearls. They're silvery Say, let me taste one of those things, Dale Well, this is sweet. It's like those things you were decorating the cake with. All right wise guy You at least set yourself up for this room Professor gauge you stole the pearls yourself. Of course I did and I put them on your cake Take care of your hands, rogers. You can't reach your guns If you drop that candle, it'll set fire to the store. All right, gauge You might have gotten away with it if you hadn't got jumpy and tipped your hand This is your jacket, isn't it? It's my jacket and it's my horse and maybe the back door wasn't jimmied There's nothing you can do about it now. No one like you has ever stopped me. There aren't any like me Now let's see I'll set the candle down to the straw Get out of here to where the boys are holding the cake. You may get a surprise when you get there Slugger and curly will take care of themselves That'll take 15 20 minutes of that candle to burn down to the straw and then this whole stable will go up like tinder Well, I don't like to warn a criminal, but I'm warning you that isn't gonna work You can make all the noise you want to the museum is closed up for the night There's nobody in the center town after dark and the carnival boys aren't coming back because they were my boys Come on turk, let's get out of here And now it's time for another Roy Rogers reminder be a good loser. Yes, buckaroos. That's Roy's reminder for today You know, even the best at cowboys can't always win at riding roping or wrangling And roi wants you to know that if you should lose sometime That's the time to grin and save yourself Well, I just gotta practice some more and build up some more strength and energy and make sure that next time I'll win And say buckaroos talking about strength and energy that you need to win in almost anything you do The best way to get it is to eat good nourishing food like grape nuts flakes Roy eats grape nuts flakes for energy his pictures on every package Yes, roi likes those well-tasting grape nuts flakes because their whole wheat energy starts going to work for you Just two minutes after you eat a big malty ridge bullfool That's energy you need for most everything you do during the day And you like sugar-roasted grape nuts flakes. They have a flavor that's malty rich makes them mighty good to eat So if you want to be king of the cowboys in your corral ask your mom to get you Grape nuts flakes the great two-minute energy cereal great nuts flakes is one of the triple wrap post cereals Guaranteed fresh or triple your money back A candle burns its way down to a bed of tender like straw in a deserted stable Roy and Dale are lashed to a post helpless against the imminent flames Can't bud don't worry Dale Trigger come here boy. What good will trigger do he can't work these ropes loose before the candle burns down to the straw Maybe not Dale, but if you can just stomp out that candle Come on over here trigger over here boy. He can't do that. Roy horses are deathly afraid of fire I think trigger you can take a fire this big trigger that candle boy stop it It can't hurt you trigger get it boy keep hosting trigger get the flame Here comes bullet and the sheriff must have sent you Roy we'll get out of here. All right professor gauge in the dark We won't have to track him Dale If the other bandits headed for snake canyon after they took the cake from pat That's where we're going and bullet knows something too Come over here bullet and tie the ropes boy. Untie him. Ellie slugger What's the idea this fire could attract attention. We just wanted to guide you in professor I know my way. Well, wait till you see what we got Glad we took the cake off of this afternoon and the geezer with a star on Hey, that's a third bandit chef. He was with them when they held me up this afternoon.
