 It's the Roy Rogers show Oh sugarcress the cereal treat that's fun to eat brings you with a Roy Rogers show transcribed on the double R bar range with Pat Brady and the Queen of the West day 11 Time to rock and here he is in person the king of the cowboys Roy Rogers Well, howdy folks. Here's my good word for today It's about a honey of a new cereal post sugar crisp and it's my hunch You'll like it just as much as we do out here at the double R bar range You see post sugar crisp is just downright good eatin and it's good so many different ways Try it real soon. Won't you? Well, let's see about today's story. Shall we? Almost since the West was first settled there have been range wars between small farmers who came to till the land nesters they're called and Cattlemen who demand the land be used only for grazing their herds Until now Paradise Valley has been free of such trouble But during the last few years more and more nesters have settled one rich portion near the foothills and ill feelings are rising a range war seems imminent Neighbors we won't be able to hold our own and arrange war against the ranchers unless we can agree among ourselves How you might remember this We've got to stick together because we're nesters nobody's gonna fight for us Just a minute now quiet down boys Before we go any further. There's one man here who's not one of us He doesn't belong at our meeting Well, it sounds as if you're referring to me Glenn, but I know you yes, sir I am referring to you mr. Fisher Well, now you you can't mean that I am heart and soul with you nesters I'm sure we've listened to you tell where your heart and soul is for longer than six months. We're awful sick of it You're just another common ordinary promoter who sides with anyone who butter his bread and we know it You sold us our land you guaranteed we'd have no trouble with the ranchers. They'd welcome us you said Boys now now give me a chance to talk. I have a right to defend myself not here. You haven't Fisher We're asking you to get out and get out now, but I am with you nesters heart and soul We're asking you to get out Fisher very well If that's the way it is, that's the way it is I hope when you're hard-pressed you'll remember that I wanted to be your ally Let's get on with our meeting boys John John, what are you doing here? I told I guess I ain't as simple as you thought mr. Fisher I told you to sneak in and listen to what went on at the ranchers meeting I said I'd take care of this nesters me up I know but I went to the ranchers meeting and I even cornered a couple of them before the meeting and I pretended I knew there was oil on their land and tried to get me and my doodle bug a job locating it That didn't cut no ice when the meeting started to cut kick me right out And the jokes on you mr. Fisher You thought everybody figured me to be a harmless old coot and it let me stay but they didn't my plan didn't work for these Nesters either Well, we'll just have to keep working Where's your truck right down at the end of the lane You go down there and wait, I'll get on my horse and meet you. Yeah, then what we'll keep this war going That's the important thing to keep the war going so the ranchers and the nesters don't have a chance to get together in a friendly meeting They'd be apt to settle their differences and I can't afford that Yeah, you can come out any of me spec on the horizon fine fine you wait for me If you go in up to Tom Hill's place, he ain't home now. He's at the meeting with the ranchers member He's a leader sort of I remember and I also remember Tom bought a big supply of dynamite to blast a road through the past It's stored in his machine shed The night sky is torn with a sound and flames of the explosion the building and all the machinery in it are Demolished Tom Hill the owner is also the leader of the ranchers and to him This is obviously more work of the nesters the only question now is how soon can he destroy every nester in the valley? Morning comes the sheriff hurries along the street up to the Eureka restaurant Oh, I'm glad you're here. Hi sheriff. Hi sheriff. I need help and I need it fast Thinking about that accident out of Tom Hill's place and the ranchers are out there and they're organizing to raid the nesters I figured be something like that. Yes. We were just talking about it. Where's Pat Dale? He's out back working on his Jeep mele bell. I suppose better get him You better ride along to Dale. I can't say as I blame the ranchers for feeling as they go But there's no evidence whatsoever that the nesters did this even if there was you can't have people Taking the law into their own hands Plants come on. We're riding. Can you wait a minute Roy? I'm putting a set of double-decker triple sonic spark plugs on now Forget the spark plugs if Nellie Bell won't run then grab a horse bullet. Come on boy. We'll need all the help We can get Things do look serious here at that sheriff. Yeah, stand easy Nellie Bell. Don't be scared old girl What happens now Roy? Let's talk to Tom first. Just go easy. That's all these men are on edge All right, Tom. Sorry to hear about what happened. Yeah, I'm sorry other than you are I'd hope we could get together with the nesters and work things out But it looks as though they want to play rough Well, the sheriff said there's no evidence to indicate the nesters had anything to do with this no evidence Quiet bullet Tom. You're a reasonable man. You don't want bloodshed anymore than I do No, but I and I don't want to see ranch property destroyed anymore than you do So what about it? I'd like you fellas to give us a half a day to scout around and see what we can dig up Well, that's okay with me. It is with you boys But when the half day is up we're going after them even if you haven't found any evidence come on Dale Pat We're riding. Okay, Roy Pat you take bullet in Nellie Bell. You bet Roy. I'll stick here. Keep on looking. That's a good idea sheriff Where to now Roy the nesters territory Yeah, but I want to stop in town on the way and ask the merchants to quit selling guns and ammunition until this is over John I didn't see you. Oh, I travel all over locating oil fields with my doodle bug You know, did I hear you say you was heading for town? Well, yes, I can take you in my truck if you want it's faster in the horse Not faster than trigger and if Roy ever gives up trigger for or not. Oh, he'll ride Nellie Bell now Pat Thanks, just the same John The idea asking you to ride in a catastrophe like he drives He's headed out to see the nest is all right, mr. Fisher, but he's going into town first You hop in your truck and get the Glen Devon is placed before Roy does tell Devon that Rogers wants to leave the nesters into A trap where the ranchers will take him in sure sure and that way we'll keep the war going won't we mr. Fisher Well, let's get to work talk to everybody that sells ammunition I like to get out to the nesters settlement as quick as we can Hey Roy, could I stay here in town finished putting on them double deck triple sonic spark plugs on Nellie Bell? Well, what in the world is double deck triple sonic spark plugs? You mean to say you don't know about them? I'm afraid I don't why they're the latest the invention gonna put all companies right out of business Roy Isn't that one of the nesters coming down the street? Where? Yeah, Glen Dubona, he's their leader from what I understand Imagine anybody not knowing about double-deck and triple sonic spark plugs say this may save us a trip out to see the nesters It might oh Howdy, mr. Dubona, howdy your Roy Rogers, aren't you and they live in yeah, and I'm double-deck triple So I mean I'm Patrick Aloysius Brady. We were just on our way out to see you mr. Dubona Didn't suppose a rancher would dare enter our territory these days and you are a rancher, aren't you Rogers? Well, I'm the kind of a rancher who believes there's room for everybody in Paradise Valley We believe that too before you ranchers shut off the water and our crops dried up the way I understand it The water was shut off because nesters were butchering the ranchers cattle There must be some way of coming to an understanding for your information I've got plenty of ammunition for me and my neighbors. Will you come to an understanding all right most likely before the sun is set tonight I'd like to settle this without any gunplay Would you mind if we ride out with you and talk to your neighbors? Why no not at all Of course as long as you want to settle this without guns you leave yours here Well, we can drop them off at my cafe you Roy and that dog too sure When will you be ready to leave right now, okay? Walk back to the hitch and rail with us We'll get our horses Pat when you take care of bullet We want to show mr. Dubona and his neighbors that we do come as friends Get off your horses You were sure right when you said your neighbors would all be here mr. Dubona And look as though they're on the war path to steady Nelly Bell. Nobody's gonna hurt you this way Rogers. All right fine Come on Dale Pat. Hey, maybe you'd better explain why we're here mr. Dubona in case one of your neighbors gets any wrong ideas I'll take care of things Roy. Are you sure everything's all right here? I hope so right here Well, here they are folks John Gallic told us was right And they were mighty anxious to come on out Especially Rogers. Hey just a second mr. Dubona. I don't get this maybe you don't but we do Roy, this is a trap We came out to see if we couldn't make peace don't give us that stuff Rogers He came out here to see if you couldn't arrange a meeting between us and your ranch your friends Well, that's exactly it and when we get to the meeting your ranch your friends intend to overpower and run us out of the valley Where did you get any such crooked ideas? John Gallic is here. Come on John face up to Rogers. Tell him what you told us Come on John, what have you got to say? Tell him John hurry up Don't be afraid Cut it short get to the point The ranchers asked Roy to come to you and arrange your meeting over in the ranchers territory When you folks got there the ranchers was going to ride in and wipe out the whole bunch why you lying no good Pat Well, this adventure is mighty exciting hey listeners and here's something every bit is exciting The new Roy Rogers King of the Cowboys pop-out trading cards offered you by post-serials free of extra cost There are 36 different pictures in this wonderful series Real-life pictures of Roy Dale trigger bullet and Pat in exciting action And here's why these cards are so extra special You see the main part of each picture pops right out easy as you please You have lifelike two-dimensional figures that stand up by themselves Great for decorating your room or club headquarters and don't forget you send no box tops no money These Roy Rogers cards are free of extra cost at your grocers Just look for the trading card packages of these famous post-serials Crinkles raisin brand grape nuts flakes brand flakes sugar crisp and post-toasties Each package brings you one of these wonderful cards Imagine the terrific display you will have with all 36 So hurry be the first in your gang to get your Roy Rogers King of the Cowboys pop-out trading cards Get a good supply of your favorite post-serials tomorrow and start collecting and swapping your Roy Rogers cards right away John Gullick the self-appointed oil expert of Paradise Valley Faced by the nesters and afraid of them lies about why Roy is here Saying Roy intended leading the nesters into a trap where the ranchers would destroy them and when Pat Brady unable to stomach the lying Impetuously knocks John down the nesters spring forward to capture Roy Dale and Pat All right boys we got them Where do we go with them we'll tie them up and dump them out somewhere let the ranchers find them That'll show the ranchers how much we think of them and their mr. Roy Rogers John You're not taking sides as far as I can tell so we'll throw Rogers and his friends in the back of your old truck You drive them back to where they belong They won't get loose the way the boys are roping them But what if they should somebody ought to go with me sorry I won't be able to dump a modern truck by myself. I'm not strong. Hey Glenn Charlie Fisher just rolled up Why not send him along with John? Boy no now now listen to me I'm in the land business. I I can't hope to sell land if I take sides this year you're riding back with John You'll give you a chance to prove how much you're on our side Throw these three on the floor behind the seat John we're out of sight now those nesters can't see us. I want you to slow down enough so I can jump off These people are still knocked out. Oh, no, mr. Fisher. You're not gonna leave me here with them Rogers can't get loose. You saw how well the boys tied him and his friends Besides, there's something else I have to do to keep this war going But just the same to leave me facing now John the sooner we get this war over the sooner you and I will reap our reward Even you understand that just slow down a little I'll get out everything will be all right I'm sure have to look that rattler up and we get loose with you. Hey Roy, I think triggers follow Why don't you call to him and have him take after Fisher? Not yet. They think we're knocked out besides I want to talk to John alone first from what we just heard he and Fisher had something to do with this war What are you doing Roy? There's a broken iron strap here in the corner. We might be able to cut ourselves loose Be careful John will hear he's kind of simple-minded. There's no telling what he'd do You got it Roy. Yeah He's slowing down boy. Yeah, this is probably where intense dumping is boy I'll wrap that doodle bug right around his skinny neck. You just let Roy take the lead Pat. You've done enough for one day Folks if you're still unconscious, and I hope you are this is as far as you go. What'd you say John? Hey, you lose you bet we are yeah all of us. Yeah, get ready to have your ears set back Now Roy you and me have been friends for a long time We hold it John I want to know what Fisher meant when he said that as soon as this war was over you and he would reap your reward I don't know Well, what did he mean when he said he had something else to do to keep this war going? What's the matter Roy? Don't the chips gunk want to talk maybe we'd better take you back to the ranchers He'll talk then I didn't have anything to do with this. What did Fisher do then? Well, you know how this is my doodle bug I I carry my doodle bug around all the time and whenever I walk across land where there's all the doodle bug starts acting up He's a bobbin like crazy. He's trying to talk us out of it Roy take it easy Pat Well, I was walking across the nest his land about six months ago and the doodle bug started bobbin I knew it was oil on the land and I told mr. Fisher about it He sold the land to the nest is you know and he still holds mortgages on it. Yes, sir That's right. Well, mr. Fisher. He gave me 50 dollars to keep my mouth shut 50 whole dollars Roy Yeah, and then a couple of weeks later He hired me to go out and butcher a couple of steers right on the range where the ranches He'd be sure to find out about him See and when the ranchers found where their stairs were butchered they blame the nesters is that right? Yes, sir and to get even they closed off the water and a range war started that was the whole idea Roy It was mr. Fisher's though not mine. I didn't know what I was getting into really I didn't all I want is to come back in your truck John What are we gonna do gonna turn you over to the sheriff, but but I didn't do nothing It was mr. Fisher the sheriff will want to talk to you anyhow. Come here trigger. Come on boy What about Fisher Roy? We'll bring bullet out to where he jumped off the truck bullet will pick up the trail We'll have mr. Fisher behind bars within a very few hours Come on find that trail boy. I think he's located it Roy Okay, you head for town and send word to all the ranchers to meet at the sheriff's office right away Dale And tell the sheriff to call the nesters to a meeting at the same place sure thing bullet and I'll bring in Fisher And we'll treat everybody to some plain and fancy talk Easy Quiet bullet get away from that door now Fisher.

There's no use trying to fool me Fisher You own the mortgages on the farm's those nesters bought don't you right? Yes, but what that got to do with and if the nesters got into a war with the ranchers They couldn't pay off the mortgages their land would go to you. Oh now. Let's not insinuate that I'm not insinuating I'm telling you the facts We got those facts from that dupe of yours John golly.
