 Hundreds of dramatic behind-the-scenes adventures are all part of the Clyde Beatty story This is the story of Borneo Devil Beast Through swampy forest tracks that foot of Borneo mountain range the Beatty's flawed in quest of the most unusual species of monkey Nazalis Larvatus the proboscis monkey after two tepid weeks so near the equator which has this huge island of the Java Sea They were almost ready to resign themselves to the fact that there were none of the long-nosed creatures about Yeah, honey, there is such a thing as a proboscis monkey isn't there? We wouldn't be going through all this if there weren't couldn't we just take home some plain old ordinary one like the organ grinder juice We could have made a safari into the jungles of New York City if we wanted organ grinder monkeys for our Fort Blotterdale zoo But darling, we've already sent a whole shipload of animals back from the East Indies Is it absolutely necessary for us to have one of those Borneo Jimmy Durantis sweetheart? We can't make many expeditions to this part of the world while we're here. We might as well get a few of the credit Oh, I can see if those monkeys are stupid enough to live in a place like this They don't deserve to be taken to a heavenly spot like Fort Lauderdale, Florida I should have shipped you home from Sumatra with that load of animals. No wish you had Well, that's Muda maybe he spotted something while he was scouting around if he did I hope it's furry and has a long nose Muda over here Mother me you find a big name in good of a lot of team make them come along a big gas Make them name telepathy one where both can find long go nosy nose. Well Muda. That's wonderful Hooray not tell me what it was he was jabbering about Muda found a native village nearby the chief knows where he can find some Probacos monkeys. Oh, that is good news big name. Take them nosy nose Make them big boss visit one inside cloud. You bet that'll make me happy me too Are the same if I see no easy do what do you mean big name say him bring them nosy nose chop chop Before first though, but it won't get you much a lot. Oh mate. That sounds like bad news It is the chief will bring us big nose monkeys if we do a small favor for him first such as oh nothing much Just capture for him the Borneo devil beast We will return to Clyde baby in just a moment And now back to Clyde baby's adventure Borneo devil beast Catch this devil beast and get it over with Clyde not so fast my lovely one Just doesn't go out with a butterfly net to pick up those babies. Muda pack every bit of rope We've got this big one. I want to inspect that netting before you roll it up, too Sounds like mood is the starting to pick up some Americanism to go with his pigeon English Okie-dokie side We're anything like that and whoever heard of packing all that stuff just to capture a figment of some superstitious May lays imagination. Oh, but the devil beast is no figment of imagination Then there is such a thing and how he's over five feet tall with tremendous arms that reached to his ankle He's covered with long bright red hair. That's where the devil idea comes in and I like you're making this up He's a tough customer. Sometimes he gets a bit peevish and starts throwing things like a limb of a tree big enough To knock your head off the dyke's call this red-haired giant the old mice or a man of the woods What do you call him or rang a 10? Oh, we're going after a monkey not a monkey honey and eight monkey eight What's the difference only about five feet and four hundred pounds? I see But what I don't understand is if mr. Big chief wants to get rid of this beast Why can't you just shoot it instead of capturing it? That bothers me, too Well, there's only one way to find out. Let's go have a talk with this big name Quite a con fab mood is having with the chief and his board of directors from here I'd say the board of directors is controlled by madam big name sounds like the chief doesn't have as much to say as his wife Oh, they're coming over here. It's about time Mother make a longer talkie talk with big name. You just ain't whistlin Dixie son Mother no sorry, son. Oh skip it. Do these two speak pension way forward or talking American? Big name him talking very good like mother Spinks American as good as that, huh? Well, then what's the deal chief? Devil him smash him come put them all o team good fellow I see well if the devil beast always smashes up your camp and hurts your men. Why don't you kill it? No, no can do no can do why not you have guns me long gone musket have him devil him walk about No kill him long musket. No, no, but why? Brutal Brutal on him go young. What's your wife saying Brutal waifu? Him do long go sleep. Oh, so your wife's brother is dead. Well, what's that got to do with Brutal? Me no like it him make a malo team bad weather No, good him. No good him one Sean wonder one Sean one Sean now wait wait a minute. What's this all about? Devil him Brutal waifu No, let them kill him. What what are they saying? The devil beast is the chief's brother-in-law That's ridiculous not to the dykes. You see honey. They believe in all sorts of spirits and I know But devil smash him come put them all o team Brutal waifu him come back come come back What's that the orangutans been taking fix at the chief so he figures the ape is his brother-in-law come back from the Depestrum right Muda. That's all that's all well in that case I should think the chief would have even more reason for killing the creature Ah, but you've forgotten about the little wife wife. Oh, no, let him big name kill him Brutal. Oh, brother Brother is right. Look dear we could talk to these people for a month And we'd never be able to convince them that the orangutan is just an ordinary animal I suppose you're right now if we want to get our little monkeys and get out of here We'd better help the dykes capture their devil. You're the boss. Muda tell the chief We'll help them No more so than most of the other captures we've made Oh, I don't know there's something about this whole thing that bothers me. I wish you'd call it off We can't do that now. We've promised the chief will call Muda back and tell him we've changed our minds It'll be all right, honey. Oh, I don't know. I don't know. Don't worry. It's now here comes Muda Muda Muda tell him big name all those things oki-toki great. Let's get started Please hide. Let's get out of this honey. We've captured gorillas and chimps in Africa. This orangutan won't be any tougher I know but I've got a feeling we're asking for trouble It may take a few days to do this job Harriet, but believe me if we use every precaution It'll be easy as falling off a lot. I still don't like it Look, I've always respected your woman's intuition about things but this time I think you're being over anxious about this so-called devil bees. It's not just the animal Clyde. No, no Then what did oh those people over there the diacs, but they're perfectly innocent harmless natives But I'm pleased up now. What Muda Muda think Missy big a right Muda think it's too much extra work to go out after that eight. That's what Muda think I'll appear you two You know, I'm not usually so heavy-handed, but I know when you're out in country like this You're liable to get a lot of strange notions. It's my duty to take care of you and I will Of course, you're right. I shouldn't be questioning your judgment. Thanks, honey, and I'm sorry if I sounded a little rough One thing take it one you again mother not tell side one thing big name him say well What did he say him say warning warning? Yes? You know kill him double-deed. I don't intend to but of course if we get in a spot I may have to take a shot at him to see him say you kill him double-deed beat name kill him you I'd bet he will continue with his story in a moment And I'll back to Clyde baby and Borneo devil beast The baby's Borneo adventure started out to be a rather dull search for strange little monkeys with noses that hang down over their chins However, they suddenly found themselves involved in a hunt for bigger games the devil beats a giant red-haired man like eight Who made his home in the Borneo treetops Looks like we're in for it honey. What did the chief say I had more to tell him We decided against going after the orangutan since then we got felt it with durian They hurt to what in heaven's name or durian or a fruit that grows in those trees over there They're covered with a leather like skin and full of sharp spine darling your face is all bruised of course It's no fun getting sucked with a durian the diet are going too far What wasn't the native with the orangutan you mean it it was up in the trees and it started throwing things That's right. He's one of the meanest roughest critters. I've ever seen usually in a rank won't bother about things like that This guy's different. No wonder they think he's the chief's brother-in-law, right? The die acts want to get rid of but of course mama chief won't let him be killed That's why they insist that we capture this one alive You mean if we don't if we don't the die acts are going to forget that they're peaceful citizens Oh, I had a feeling about this and you were right. Don't worry, honey I've kind of got a grudge against that red devil too I'd like nothing better than to see him nice and safe in a good strong case Let's get on with it right. Oh, Muda. Yes, I'd tell the dikes to get started. Yes, guys Everybody starts swinging axes Sure, we got a chop down about 50 trees 50 trees maybe even a hundred I thought we were going to capture an ape not go in the lumber business That's right, but an orangutan can move through the trees faster than we can run on the ground So so we cut down an entire forest to keep him from running away if we have to honey if we have to It makes me exhausted just watching those poor diet chop those trees. Oh, they're used to working in this climate They're as anxious as we are to capture the red ape Muda tells me the creatures got the chief so upset he's been taking it out on everybody in the tribe Over there Back look at his back for that poor devil Blows he's unconscious now Muda quickly the first aid kit. What can you do for him? I don't know. I'll have to examine him first Muda hurry coming Yeah, it's just one good great open it, right Now help me here you over there hand me that crack of water Tell them to shut up That's a nasty wound what made it. I don't know Could could it have been some sort of snake no no it was something with jaws and teeth It's the orangutan you must have smelled the blood Yeah, durians again, you better get under cover Not until I finish Are you son of a gun? Oh take it easy. I didn't name it the big ape. I was just carrying them away. Tell him Muda A little more. Yeah, I think we can move him now. Come on you guys come here Take more than a few gunshots to scare that big old boy matter of fact, there isn't anything that can scare him easy there That's a sick man. You're carrying He could have but it'd be lying around Whatever it was it seemed to be all different colors. It just disappeared after it's stuck in I know I've been racking my brain trying to figure it out All right, Muda put him down here And cover him up good Well, the others go back to work after this sure they're used to accidents like this A lot of strange things happen in bought strange things of course I just thought of the strangest thing of all out here you mean you know what happened to this man Yeah, he was bitten by a drako up in the world or drako's an amazing type of lizard Lizard, but how could a lizard jump so high the drako we saw didn't jump he was flying now just a minute There may be monkeys with noses ten inches long and eight with hair as red as an Irish bricklayer But don't tell me there are lizards here that can fly it's a fact the drako's wings are colored like a rainbow The rest of them has the protective coloring of the ground when he flies you see the flash of color when he folds his wings He seems to disappear and and they can bite like that they can bite like that That's all let's get that red haired ape and get out of here For be long honey that Harry Ape is getting tired. He's getting tired Oh They can take it but it's so discouraging every time we just about get a space theater round him The devil be swings over to another part of the forest and we start all over here But for the last three days, we've had him in trees that can't supply him with food. He's getting starved Mad is a wet hen listen to it. I'll just wait till we get him isolated He'll really tell us off as long as he doesn't demonstrate how strong those huge arms of his are he can chatter his lungs Wait a minute. I think we've got him Get all the men chopping at that tree I've marked on the left and hurry You see the pattern we plan worked out perfectly We can get that one tree down before he moves for it. We've got him trapped. Oh, come on boys We've caught the ape at the right time. It seems to be taking a rest Just a little more a little more More never mind now Getting that big boy out of that lone tree and into the cage. We've made is the really rough job Oh, fine. I think I could have married Horace Gilton Farber. Well, who's he a bookkeeper dotting a bookkeeper Miss all this fun never him cut up trees What do bet it won't break out the ropes and the netting spread the netting under the trees So we can get it when it's needed. Yes, God now Harry It take this rifle and keep me covered. What are you going to do? I'm going up the tree to lap off those lower branches have to clear the way so we can get the ropes on that critter and drag him down Hi, you're not climbing up that tree with that with that devil in you don't expect me to ask one of the boys But the beast might attack you if he does don't miss with that rifle if we kill the ape What about the teeth threat? We'll worry about that later. Give me that handaxe mood up. Yes, I here I go I've got my eye on him if he comes for me. I'll take the chance of dropping down Look out below I dropped on those branches and broke the fall. Oh, I thought he had me there for a minute Oh, he almost did. Look your shake so well being close only counts when you're playing horseshoes Muda hand me those ropes. What are you going to do make like a cowboy now? What? Thank you. I know my apes are hairy friend will grab that rope and then I pull the loose tight Grab the end boys and pull Oh That's got one arm here goes another rope Serious with rage. He's got the other rope. Look look up his arm and over the shoulder now all together Everybody tell big name. There's a cage and there's his devil feet and the rest is up to him Yes, honey When you were up in that tree and that red ape grabbed at you if he caught you let's not talk about that Well, if he'd caught you do you think the rifle you handed me would have popped him from carrying you to shred? Well, if you to smack him with about five shots right between the eyes, maybe you think I could have done it No, I don't think anybody could have from the angle yet. You went up that tree sure honey, but gosh We had to get that devil be well this island may be filled with long-nosed monkeys red-haired apes flying dragons But until you get out of Borneo, there'll be another strange creature here and it's called Clyde Bay And now here is the start of our show Clyde Bay He although I nearly had to chop down a forest to get him It was a great thrill to be able to capture the Borneo devil beast alive I'll bring you another thrilling adventure the next time we meet All stories are based upon incidents in the career of the world famous Clyde Bay T and the Clyde Bay T circus The Clyde Bay T show was produced and transcribed by Shirley Thomas written by Robert T Smith and Frank Hart classic music Composed and conducted by Albert Glasser All names used were fictional and any resemblance to persons living or dead is purely coincidental.
