00:02:39 #9 You seem to get fouled up yesterday. Yeah, don't look happy.

00:02:44 #10 Man, man, I was way out of the problem with this little old engine sourdough.

00:02:49 #11 Hey, Red, take a look at one of those bloods.

00:02:53 #12 Well, it looks like your mixture is too lean.

00:02:57 #13 Yeah, that's what I figured.

00:02:58 #14 I'll make it to you, Reno.

00:03:00 #15 Another thousand now and I'll take care of your cars for a year.

00:03:03 #16 Not a chance.

00:03:04 #17 Okay, then you better find yourself another mechanic for number one.

00:03:06 #18 Wait a minute, you don't want to throw good money away.

00:03:08 #19 I'll take care of Flakel's car instead.

00:03:10 #20 You can't do that to me. I got a mortgage on this place.

00:03:13 #21 You know what you can do with it, don't you?

00:03:15 #22 I'll wait a minute.

00:03:37 #28 Uh, could you use the first rate mechanic around here?

00:03:39 #29 Like who?

00:03:40 #30 Like me?

00:03:41 #31 Oh, you're good, are you?

00:03:42 #32 I hate to brag, but I'm about the best there is.

00:03:45 #33 Maybe better hire this kid to take my place, you know?

00:03:48 #34 Maybe I better let you have that $1,000.

00:03:50 #35 Now you're talking.

00:03:52 #36 Sorry about the job, kid.

00:03:53 #37 I need another mechanic like I need a hole in my gas tank.

00:03:59 #38 Why do you like that a picture of my father?

00:04:01 #39 I've spent a long time with him.

00:04:03 #40 Hey. What's your name?

00:04:07 #41 Coy, Billy Coy.

00:04:08 #42 Cameron Boyle Coy's kid.

00:04:10 #43 Yeah, that's right.

00:04:11 #44 I was with him in the Annapolis.

00:04:13 #45 I know that's why I came down here to see.

00:04:15 #46 Well, maybe you know I was sitting next to him when it happened.

00:04:18 #47 That was back in the days when we used to carry a mechanic.

00:04:22 #48 The red and the north turret.

00:04:25 #49 Less than a left to go.

00:04:26 #50 I know.

00:04:28 #51 I sure was a great driver though, wasn't he?

00:04:31 #52 I hope someday I can be just half as good.

00:04:34 #53 I have to be good, kid.

00:04:35 #54 Oh, I know that.

00:04:36 #55 What happened to her?

00:04:39 #56 I mean, where is she?

00:06:05 #84 Well, look, all I want to do is find out where I get a curtain.

00:06:08 #85 Well, there's a locker over the washroom. You might find some there.

00:08:38 #108 Oh, Mrs. Coy.

00:08:40 #109 Mrs. Coy, what is this between you and Spelograt?

00:08:45 #110 Billy, don't give me that surprise routine.

00:09:35 #131 I don't think so, dear.

00:09:36 #132 How do you like that? Can't even trust your own mother.

00:09:38 #133 I think you ought to apologize.

00:09:55 #144 Vick Sullivan?

00:09:56 #145 Yeah, really.

00:09:57 #146 Well, he drives them.

00:09:58 #147 Is he any good?

00:09:59 #148 High point man of the midges this year.

00:10:01 #149 Wait till I get a hold of one of those little jobs.

00:10:03 #150 I'll drive his ears off.

00:10:04 #151 Say you don't know a guy with a hot iron.

00:10:05 #152 Do you ever do any racing?

00:10:11 #155 Well, I'd beat everything up in Idaho.

00:10:13 #156 Do you ever drive it on a regular racetrack?

00:10:15 #157 Regular racetrack, not exactly.

00:10:17 #158 It's a little different.

00:10:19 #159 I'm going to be a little different.

00:10:21 #160 If I never get the chance...

00:10:23 #161 Supposed to be changing subject.

00:10:25 #162 I'm never going to change the subject, Mom.

00:11:09 #174 Jack, cool, I'm welcoming you to Carol's Speedway, the mighty hot rods of America out here this evening,

00:11:13 #175 and you're going to see plenty of grand activity.

00:11:16 #176 We might mention at the present time the cars are preparing to go into their time trials.

00:11:19 #177 Each car is given three laps in order to obtain its best time.

00:11:22 #178 And then those doctors will be placed in the racing races.

00:11:24 #179 Oh, Red, you really made this into a real racing buggy, huh?

00:11:27 #180 Uh-huh. Now look, if you turn over, scrunch down and pull your head in.

00:11:31 #181 Don't worry about me, but thanks for the advice.

00:11:33 #182 I'll drive on one of these hot Rodgers kid stuff.

00:11:35 #183 I'll win myself a couple of free races and wait and see one of those guys will be asking me to drive one of those big cars.

00:11:40 #184 Oh yeah?

00:11:41 #185 Yeah.

00:11:42 #186 Okay, Coy, I'm the track.

00:11:43 #187 All right, let's go.

00:11:44 #188 You're going to see a lot from Billy Coy. He's coming on the track right now. You can see him.

00:11:48 #189 Billy Coy moving off the Speedway. Yes, sir.

00:11:51 #190 Re for three laps to qualify now for the fast heat race.

00:11:54 #191 The starters come under the track with a green flag.

00:11:58 #192 I'm going to go and be brave to be sad.

00:12:26 #193 Wait, wait a second.

00:13:15 #194 Please, I'll get to see the ice-cold kids.

00:13:17 #195 Pretty good, huh, Red?

00:13:19 #196 Yeah, better go a little higher on that north turn.

00:13:22 #197 I'll think about it. Check the plugs, Red.

00:13:25 #198 Big whale. Just like his old man.

00:13:43 #199 Hiya. Hiya.

00:13:44 #200 Hi, Billy.

00:13:45 #201 One dog, please.

00:13:46 #202 One dog?

00:13:47 #203 Hey, you're only flying out there.

00:13:48 #204 What do you want on an empty track?

00:13:50 #205 What do you want out there, hurdles?

00:13:52 #206 One idea.

00:13:54 #207 I bet I know what you've done about the track being empty.

00:13:56 #208 She's sharpie.

00:13:57 #209 Oh, sharp of scissors and twice as snippy.

00:14:01 #210 She nuts?

00:14:02 #211 Sure, I'm a race driver, ain't I?

00:14:04 #212 She's very funny.

00:14:05 #213 You meant that you can drive faster when there are cars out there.

00:14:08 #214 Your attention, ladies and gentlemen, your attention, please.

00:14:10 #215 qualifying for the fast heat race this evening for six laps.

00:14:15 #216 Number 31, Penards McGonigal.

00:14:18 #217 Car number 23 driven by Billy Coy.

00:14:22 #218 Car number 48.

00:14:23 #219 Give me a gander, I'm going to drive right over.

00:14:25 #220 Ha!

00:14:26 #221 I'm going to drive right over!

00:14:30 #222 There is my number, ladies and gentlemen.

00:14:46 #223 The following cars failed to finish.

00:14:49 #224 Number 23, Billy Coy.

00:14:52 #225 Number 62, Johnny Whiteman.

00:14:54 #226 I'm sorry, it's not out, Billy.

00:14:56 #227 It's just tough luck.

00:14:57 #228 Of course it was. What happened?

00:14:59 #229 What's the difference? I lost, didn't I?

00:15:01 #230 Yeah, well I just wanted to know I was sorry you didn't win.

00:15:05 #231 Thanks, boy.

00:15:06 #232 That's alright.

00:15:08 #233 If you want to know, I...

00:15:10 #234 I took the turn too low.

00:15:12 #235 Oh.

00:15:13 #236 Well, wait until next time. I'll run those guys right off the track.

00:15:16 #237 Sure you will.

00:15:17 #238 I'll have that iron I might run in just like an Orphi if I...

00:15:20 #239 Hey, you gonna be busy Saturday night?

00:15:23 #240 Uh-huh.

00:15:24 #241 Will you meet me in front of Reds at eight o'clock?

00:15:26 #242 Uh-huh.

00:15:27 #243 It's a date?

00:15:29 #244 Oh, eight o'clock.

00:15:30 #245 8 o'clock.

00:15:38 #246 Um, I'd like to see Mr. Stanley.

00:15:42 #247 Who?

00:15:43 #248 Arthur Stanley.

00:15:44 #249 He don't work here.

00:15:45 #250 Why, he's the owner of the place.

00:15:49 #251 Oh, you mean the boss?

00:15:51 #252 Hey, what?

00:15:52 #253 Oh, Mary?

00:16:00 #254 Could I speak to your mama, doctor?

00:16:02 #255 Sure, come in, come in.

00:16:04 #256 Come in, Mary.

00:16:05 #257 Well, this is a surprise.

00:16:07 #258 I'm just passing Arthur, and I'm...

00:16:09 #259 You are, anytime.

00:16:10 #260 I wouldn't do to speak about Billy.

00:16:12 #261 You helped him rebuild his hot rod into a racing car, didn't you?

00:16:15 #262 Yes, Mary.

00:16:16 #263 And then his very first race, he had an accident.

00:16:18 #264 He could have been killed.

00:16:19 #265 But look, Mary...

00:16:20 #266 You're encouraging him, aren't you?

00:16:22 #267 If he's going to race anyway, I don't want him to be killed

00:16:24 #268 because some dumb mechanic forgets to fasten a bolt.

00:16:27 #269 What is there about racing that you can't resist?

00:16:31 #270 Why do you want to risk your lives?

00:16:33 #271 Time after, time after time, you or Billy or anybody else?

00:16:36 #272 Well, I guess it's for the same reason that men hunt gold and build for oil wells.

00:16:40 #273 It's like Billy says, it's a chance to hit the jackpot.

00:16:44 #274 Look at those cups up there.

00:16:45 #275 And the big one is filled with $100 bills.

00:16:48 #276 Now if you can win the $500 in Indianapolis,

00:16:50 #277 you can get rich!

00:17:00 #278 Reno, why should I drive for 30% of the first

00:17:03 #279 whenever the other chauffeur on the track is getting 40?

00:17:05 #280 Then you make more money than any of them.

00:17:08 #281 Well, it figures.

00:17:09 #282 I'm the best driver.

00:17:10 #283 Oh, I give you the fastest car. Yep?

00:17:15 #284 Mr. Riley, your daughter's here.

00:17:16 #285 Center in.

00:17:17 #286 Hello, baby.

00:17:20 #287 Hi dad. Dad, I need some money. I need a lot of money.

00:17:26 #288 Well, what's on your mind? You want to buy yourself a hot rod? No.

00:17:30 #289 Um, are you two through talking?

00:17:33 #290 Don't worry about him. Go ahead, speak up.

00:17:36 #291 Well, I, uh...

00:17:42 #292 Dad, I want to buy a dress.

00:17:44 #293 A dress? You? You must be kidding.

00:17:47 #294 No, I'm not. I think it's about time I had one.

00:17:50 #295 Well, baby, if that's what you want, okay.

00:17:52 #296 How much is the dress going to cost?

00:17:53 #297 Well, gee, I don't know exactly.

00:17:57 #298 $20, $30 maybe?

00:17:58 #299 You could shop around.

00:17:59 #300 There's a lot of sales.

00:18:00 #301 You might even get one for $15 or less.

00:18:01 #302 Listen, if my girl's going to get a dress,

00:18:03 #303 she's going to get a good one.

00:18:04 #304 Here's a hundred bucks.

00:18:05 #305 Oh, thanks, Dad.

00:18:06 #306 Thanks a lot.

00:18:07 #307 Here.

00:18:08 #308 Oh, wait a minute, little.

00:18:11 #309 What's matter, Dad?

00:18:12 #310 The hair.

00:18:15 #311 Thanks, Dad.

00:18:21 #312 I wish you could be that generous with me.

00:18:24 #313 You look nice in a dress.

00:18:26 #314 Well, I'll be busted.

00:18:34 #315 Surprise, Minnie?

00:18:36 #316 What do you do with all that paint on your face?

00:18:38 #317 Paint up black and Indian?

00:18:39 #318 And what do you do with that thing on?

00:18:41 #319 I have a date tonight.

00:18:42 #320 A date? With a boy?

00:18:44 #321 Sure. I'd like the things I bought.

00:18:46 #322 Two dresses.

00:18:47 #323 What do you squander on your money on dresses for me?

00:18:49 #324 You got a closet full of clothes.

00:18:51 #325 Oh, I haven't got anything at all.

00:18:52 #326 You haven't got anything?

00:18:54 #327 Well, you got more pretty things in there than both boys, your age.

00:18:57 #328 What's the matter with you, Minnie?

00:18:58 #329 A girl can't go around wearing things like that on her first date.

00:19:02 #330 And you just take this thing back to the burlap show where you got it.

00:19:06 #331 Will you please unpack my shoes, Mary?

00:19:08 #332 These sure are pretty, Miss Lou.

00:19:14 #333 That boy friend of yours sure must be something.

00:19:17 #334 He's wonderful.

00:19:18 #335 He'd have to be to make my baby wear things like this.

00:19:21 #336 Sit me up, please.

00:19:22 #337 Uh, is he tall?

00:19:24 #338 Not exactly.

00:19:26 #339 Medium?

00:19:27 #340 No.

00:19:29 #341 Well, what does he look like?

00:19:31 #342 Well, you'll like him, Mary.

00:19:33 #343 He's kind of a short Gary Cooper.

00:19:36 #344 He's really very handsome.

00:19:38 #345 He has icy blue eyes and firm jaw and high intelligence for it.

00:19:42 #346 He looks like Gary Cooper James Mason and Charles Boyne.

00:19:45 #347 He all rolled into one.

00:19:46 #348 Uh-huh.

00:19:47 #349 What does he look like when you unroll him?

00:19:49 #350 How about it, girl?

00:19:51 #351 Linnie, where's my daughter?

00:20:00 #352 There she is, Mr. Reno.

00:20:02 #353 A combination of Ingrid Crawford and Bergdorf Goodman all rolled into one.

00:20:10 #354 to one. Well stand up honey let me get a good look at you. I can't walk in these things. Of course you can walk down. I'm sure you can walk there's nothing to it. I have been wearing these high heeled cowboy boots for years. But I just know I'm going to fall. You won't fall darling. Now look at here listen to me there's nothing to this. All you do is just put your weight forward on your toes. See lean forward. Bamed your knees slightly and when you feel a pain in the small of your back then you're walking comfortably. See nothing to it look.

00:20:44 #355 Come on, let me see it.

00:20:46 #356 Come on. That's it.

00:20:48 #357 You made it. That's my baby.

00:20:51 #358 Now, I've got something special for you.

00:20:59 #359 Look at that.

00:21:00 #360 Oh, Daddy!

00:21:03 #361 That's for being such a very nice father.

00:21:06 #362 Thank you, baby.

00:21:07 #363 Now, help me put it on, because you know what? What?

00:21:09 #364 I have a great big date tonight.

00:21:12 #365 Well...

00:21:17 #366 Well, that don't beat all.

00:21:19 #367 When she was five years old,

00:21:21 #368 She was playing football and driving a racing car and now she's 19 years old and just learning how to walk.

00:21:58 #369 Buddy?

00:21:59 #370 Hi Billy.

00:22:00 #371 What the, what was the matter?

00:22:10 #372 It was a rough sidewalk.

00:22:11 #373 He had a rough trip.

00:22:13 #374 But you're, you're all dressed up.

00:22:16 #375 Just a little thing. I had around the house. Would you like to take the car?

00:22:22 #376 Well, I wasn't planning on this.

00:22:24 #377 But, oops, careful.

00:22:26 #378 I mean, I wasn't planning on you being all dolled up or anything.

00:22:29 #379 Well, a girl can't go on in jeans all the time, can she?

00:22:32 #380 No.

00:22:33 #381 Me, the way I'm dressed in you.

00:22:36 #382 I wasn't planning on going to dinner dancing or anything.

00:22:40 #383 We don't have to.

00:22:41 #384 Why don't we take a ride?

00:22:43 #385 A ride?

00:22:47 #386 Look, like, to tell the truth, I just...

00:22:51 #387 Remember those two special carburetors

00:22:53 #388 that you showed me the other day.

00:22:55 #389 The one that I was working on?

00:22:56 #390 Yeah.

00:22:58 #391 I thought that maybe I'd get rid of my two old cards

00:23:01 #392 and put those two specials in tonight.

00:23:02 #393 And that's what I thought we'd do, right?

00:23:05 #394 Oh, well, sure.

00:23:07 #395 Sure.

00:23:08 #396 Well, of course we don't have to do it tonight.

00:23:11 #397 Or you could show me where they are.

00:23:12 #398 And I could. Sure.

00:23:14 #399 I'll show you where they are. You don't mind? Not at all.

00:23:17 #400 Oh, well, I'd swell.

00:23:19 #401 I mean, if I'd have known that you would

00:23:21 #402 regress the way you are.

00:23:23 #403 I'd have gotten dressed too.

00:23:24 #404 We've done something. What you wanted?

00:23:25 #405 Let's do it.

00:23:41 #406 I figured she's here just right.

00:23:44 #407 Hey, Deacon, I knew you were looking for a chauffeur.

00:23:47 #408 I was looking for one.

00:23:49 #409 Well, looks like you're running in a little bit of luck

00:23:51 #410 because I won the main at Carroll last week, you know.

00:23:53 #411 Hot rods?

00:23:55 #412 Well, why don't you shut your mouth?

00:23:56 #413 Why don't you stay in your own league, Nothead?

00:23:58 #414 Sorry, kid. I saw you in Happy Lee this morning.

00:24:02 #415 Happy Lee? Oh, well, he's a swell driver, Deacon.

00:24:05 #416 You got a good boy. Thanks anyway.

00:24:06 #417 So long, Nothead.

00:24:08 #418 Hello, I'm Phony.

00:24:11 #419 You want a little rich on the outside?

00:24:13 #420 Sure. Hiya, kid. Hi, Hep.

00:24:16 #421 Oh, Eddie.

00:24:17 #422 Here you got yourself a ride.

00:24:19 #423 Gonna make little four-bits here

00:24:20 #424 like a bug in a quarter.

00:24:22 #425 Anybody can do it, you're the guy.

00:24:24 #426 Yeah, I know where you can get yourself a ride, too. Yeah?

00:24:26 #427 Where?

00:24:27 #428 It's a hoodoo wagon.

00:24:29 #429 A hoodoo wagon, what do you mean?

00:24:30 #430 You mean it's a green car?

00:24:31 #431 Oh.

00:24:32 #432 See, a driver won't touch a green car.

00:24:34 #433 I know.

00:24:35 #434 Guy drove one in a big race at Endon Opelus.

00:24:37 #435 But he's ironed out in front of 490 miles unless a minute to go.

00:24:41 #436 You know what he did?

00:24:42 #437 Put it through a wall and got himself killed.

00:24:44 #438 Haven't ever heard about green cars before.

00:24:46 #439 Yeah, Eddie, I know all about.

00:24:47 #440 Well, this guy was a real big shot back in those days.

00:24:50 #441 Now you remember him. The name was...

00:24:53 #442 What was his name, Ed?

00:24:54 #443 His name was...

00:24:55 #444 Cannonball Coy.

00:24:56 #445 That's it, Cannonball Coy.

00:24:59 #446 If you're interested, he...

00:25:02 #447 He was my father.

00:25:18 #448 It's Schmoller again!

00:25:20 #449 Oh, all right, there.

00:25:23 #450 This is a nice surprise.

00:25:25 #451 I thought I could listen to the radio if you don't mind.

00:25:27 #452 Well, of course I don't mind.

00:25:29 #453 Come on, sit down.

00:25:30 #454 I'll turn you down for you. Thanks.

00:25:31 #455 Any particular stations?

00:25:32 #456 Yeah, turn it out at 980.

00:25:34 #457 980.

00:25:38 #458 Good evening, sports fans.

00:25:39 #459 Here we are at the world's fastest quarter-mile dirt

00:25:41 #460 track, Culver City, home of the mighty Midget.

00:25:44 #461 They're broadcasting the older races.

00:25:46 #462 Oh, Arthur, I don't want to hear them.

00:25:49 #463 But you want to hear this one, Mary.

00:25:51 #464 The boys driving.

00:25:56 #465 Hey George, phone me from the track, Keith.

00:25:59 #466 Thought I'd like to listen to it.

00:26:01 #467 Here they come in the last qualifying heat

00:26:03 #468 in six laps for the sixth best in car.

00:26:06 #469 On the board, the track record holder,

00:26:07 #470 the rally's number one junior,

00:26:09 #471 with six silver in the wing.

00:26:11 #472 And on the outside, it's Billy Coy,

00:26:12 #473 and that's green 0.73, the hood away.

00:26:16 #474 This is Billy Coy's first time out in the midget.

00:26:18 #475 Tonight he's defying the best known racing superstition.

00:26:21 #476 Get away from me with that hood you wagging!

00:26:23 #477 I'll run you to the fence!

00:26:25 #478 You get my way and I'll drive right over you.

00:26:28 #479 Now wheel the wheel down to the starting line.

00:26:32 #480 This Donovan has got three.

00:26:34 #481 We have a man fill up.

00:26:36 #482 Go!

00:26:37 #483 Just as soon as we know the condition of the boy, we'll let you know.

00:27:46 #484 Oh, Billy, don't let it be Billy.

00:27:48 #485 Track ambulance is racing across the field.

00:27:54 #486 And it's car number 73, the hoodawagon that's crashed out there.

00:27:58 #487 It's Billy Corian the hoodawagon.

00:28:00 #488 Oh, God, not again.

00:28:02 #489 Take it easy.

00:28:03 #490 The yellow light is up. That's the caution signal.

00:28:05 #491 The drivers are slowing down.

00:28:07 #492 We're still waiting here. Tensely. Everybody is tense.

00:28:09 #493 Oh, God, not really true.

00:28:12 #494 The pit crews are swarming across the track.

00:28:14 #495 They're running toward the wrecked car.

00:28:16 #496 Well, now, there's the driver.

00:28:17 #497 He's out of the car and on his feet.

00:28:20 #498 He signals a crowd. He's okay.

00:28:22 #499 Oh, Arthur, he's safe. He's safe.

00:28:28 #500 Sure, he's safe. He's gonna have a job.

00:28:30 #501 Life that kid. Take it from me.

00:28:33 #502 You just leave it to me.

00:28:38 #503 Hey, Billy. That was a dirty trick.

00:28:44 #504 Yeah, yeah.

00:28:45 #505 You see me run at hoodoo contrary defense?

00:28:48 #506 I sure did.

00:28:53 #507 Get him, Billy. Slug him. Get in that chair.

00:28:55 #508 Now keep that right hand up. Now, will you?

00:28:57 #509 No, now to the left. To the left. Keep the left up.

00:28:59 #510 That's it. Now you got him.

00:29:05 #511 Oh! Wow!

00:29:07 #512 All right. Cut it out. Cut it out.

00:29:09 #513 Break it up here, you two. Break it up.

00:29:10 #514 Somebody grab him there. What is it with you two guys?

00:29:13 #515 You tried to run me through the rail again. I'll kill you.

00:29:15 #516 What's the matter? Can't you take it and not head?

00:29:17 #517 Now stop it, you two, I'll have you both fired.

00:29:19 #518 Chris, isn't it?

00:29:20 #519 Ha.

00:29:23 #520 Anybody need a doctor?

00:29:24 #521 Yeah, I do.

00:29:26 #522 Smart young man here decided to put his hand

00:29:28 #523 on a red-hot exhaust pipe.

00:29:29 #524 Boy, and a mind burned up.

00:29:32 #525 Wow.

00:29:34 #526 How about it, Doc?

00:29:36 #527 And like this, you'll be able to drive in about a week.

00:29:38 #528 All right, I'll quit for the night.

00:29:39 #529 Right after the main event.

00:29:41 #530 You'll quit right now.

00:29:42 #531 Oh, listen, Doc, the car's already qualified.

00:29:45 #532 Drive is disqualified.

00:29:46 #533 Buy me. And that's official.

00:29:48 #534 Well, who am I going to get to drive my car?

00:29:50 #535 That's my worry.

00:29:52 #536 Well, how about me, Deacon?

00:29:54 #537 You?

00:29:55 #538 Chair.

00:29:56 #539 Not on your neck. I got $6,000 tied up in old four bits.

00:29:58 #540 Now I'm not going to let any green kid take her out

00:30:00 #541 and put her through a fence.

00:30:01 #542 Oh, he's all right, Deacon.

00:30:02 #543 You beat me twice in a hot rod.

00:30:04 #544 Free time!

00:30:05 #545 Yeah, yeah.

00:30:06 #546 Oh, give me a chance. Will you, Deacon?

00:30:08 #547 Let me show you what I can do.

00:30:09 #548 All right.

00:30:13 #549 And here comes Billy Corley into the winner circle.

00:30:25 #550 So let's give him a great weekend.

00:30:28 #551 And here's the scene of the first raven presented from the beginning.

00:30:32 #552 Hello, Speedy, I guess I can see you.

00:30:34 #553 Where's the kiss that goes with it?

00:30:35 #554 Oh, is that part of the deal?

00:30:36 #555 Sure, a kiss. I'll get you a picture of the paper.

00:30:44 #556 Wow!

00:30:45 #557 Where do I come if I won an popcorn?

00:30:47 #558 Well, I'm at the club Argentine drop over anytime.

00:30:49 #559 I'll do that again. I want to get a close-up.

00:30:51 #560 Huh, I paid him to say it.

00:30:52 #561 Okay.

00:30:59 #562 I hope you got your money first.

00:31:01 #563 You're dead.

00:31:25 #564 Howdy, Red.

00:31:26 #565 Well, where have you been all day?

00:31:28 #566 I guess I should have phoned you. I quit this morning.

00:31:30 #567 Oh, you're going to quit working for a little, huh?

00:31:31 #568 That guy's a sucker to work eight hours a day for mechanics wages.

00:31:34 #569 Say, you got something there?

00:31:35 #570 I make more win-win race than I do around here all month.

00:31:37 #571 Yeah, but you might not win another one a year.

00:31:39 #572 You haven't even got a car to drive.

00:31:40 #573 That's what you think. You know that new iron that Deacon Jones is building?

00:31:43 #574 Six bits?

00:31:43 #575 Yeah, well, Abby's going to drive that and I'm going to take over number 50.

00:31:45 #576 Hey, look, do me a favor, will you?

00:31:47 #577 Drive the car a few weeks to make sure before you quit your job

00:31:51 #578 Let's suppose you do me a favor. Let me make my own mistakes sure go ahead make them you got my permission to smoke. No, thank you

00:31:57 #579 Hi, Billy. Hey, hi bud. I hear you're gonna ride for this. That's right

00:32:09 #580 Oh, would you like to put this on your helmet? Oh, half a dollar four bits. I get it. That's cute

00:32:14 #581 Yeah, I don't you might like to have a lot of time, but it's starting to keep you out of danger

00:32:18 #582 Thanks, let's cut the box

00:32:26 #583 How do you like it?

00:32:30 #584 That's a hat.

00:32:32 #585 I gotta get going now. See you later, huh?

00:34:33 #586 Look at you, it's just gorgeous like a window, a window.

00:34:40 #587 You've got a warm and lovable smile, honey.

00:34:44 #588 You got a table for me, please.

00:34:45 #589 What is your name?

00:34:46 #590 Alexander Hamilton.

00:34:48 #591 I'm sorry, I have no Hamilton here.

00:34:51 #592 Well, I have a Hamilton here.

00:34:53 #593 Well, Mr. Hamilton, I have your table right at ringside.

00:34:56 #594 Right this way, please.

00:34:58 #595 I'm in second rule.

00:35:04 #596 I kiss you till your eyes so happy you could cry

00:35:09 #597 Can't get away, I can't win

00:35:13 #598 And if you pop the question to me, do you drive me insane?

00:35:19 #599 Can't win, oh, see see

00:35:22 #600 Then I kiss you till your eyes so happy you could cry

00:35:38 #601 Can't get away

00:35:41 #602 And if you pop the question to me, do you drive me insane?

00:35:49 #603 Okay, why not?

00:35:51 #604 I shall guess with you.

00:36:09 #605 If you want to see somebody drive a car the way I do,

00:36:12 #606 and he gets paid for it, go out to the Speedway tomorrow

00:36:15 #607 and watch those midget cars.

00:36:17 #608 And here's the daredevil that you read about on the sports pages.

00:36:20 #609 The father drives them, Billy Coyne.

00:36:23 #610 Hiya, Speedy.

00:36:28 #611 What are you going to do on the race tomorrow?

00:36:29 #612 I'm going to do my best and if I have to, I'll drive right over.

00:36:34 #613 Oh, that's wonderful. That's a tip for all you race fans.

00:36:37 #614 Say, Carlos, have you got that can of buckshot ready?

00:36:39 #615 Yes, Miss.

00:36:40 #616 Well, let's shake it.

00:36:47 #617 Well, this is a very old film.

00:36:49 #618 I just want to remind you that we drink badly.

00:36:52 #619 The best. But Gregor is Heather Jewel.

00:36:54 #620 You don't even have to drink it.

00:36:56 #621 You just take the cork good and then hail it.

00:36:59 #622 Well, uh, let me buy you folks a drink.

00:37:02 #623 Waiter, what do you have?

00:37:04 #624 Campagne with bubbles in it.

00:37:06 #625 And put it in a shattered gin and loaves to make it bounce.

00:37:09 #626 Yeah.

00:37:14 #627 A couple of more laps and I'll have the ride under control.

00:37:23 #628 Take it easy, Billy. You're not driving a hot rod now.

00:37:27 #629 The kids is all ready.

00:38:29 #630 I don't feel well either.

00:38:30 #631 Oh, Billy, you're drunk.

00:38:32 #632 Mrs. Coy, I don't have a cup.

00:38:35 #633 I've got to tell you.

00:38:37 #634 I can't wait till tomorrow.

00:38:39 #635 It's way too long already.

00:38:41 #636 Who can that be?

00:38:45 #637 I love millions of friends.

00:38:47 #638 Santa Claus!

00:38:49 #639 We finally caught up with you.

00:38:51 #640 Who's Santa Claus?

00:38:53 #641 You went through a 30 miles on to an 85 miles an hour.

00:38:55 #642 What do you think you are?

00:38:57 #643 A racing driver?

00:38:59 #644 Could be.

00:39:01 #645 We're going to give you a nice long Christmas present.

00:39:03 #646 a red suit, Santa. Oh, mommy, where the mother? Where the mother?

00:39:16 #647 Where's that balloon brain? That's all I want to know.

00:39:18 #648 He had a day with the lawyers last night. Maybe he figures you'll give him the trophy without racing.

00:39:22 #649 Well, in another ten minutes, he won't be able to race.

00:39:26 #650 Don't think I wanted a baby. All right, it'll be your mother.

00:39:28 #651 All right, so you told me that before.

00:39:30 #652 But you did last night, gives a bad name to the whole sport. Right.

00:39:33 #653 You want to drive fast, save it for the speedway?

00:39:35 #654 So you want my bail? Do I have to listen to the electoral all night?

00:39:37 #655 And another thing, I don't think you should drive tonight.

00:39:41 #656 Here are no shape for it.

00:39:42 #657 Oh, what do you mean? I'm a study as a rock.

00:39:45 #658 Hey!

00:39:48 #659 Hey, Billy, right?

00:39:49 #660 Where have you been?

00:39:50 #661 In jail, Dick, and in jail.

00:39:52 #662 Come on, let's get this remedy out on the track.

00:39:54 #663 I'll see you at the finish line.

00:39:56 #664 Come on, come on, let's go, Dick. Let's get it on the way.

00:39:58 #665 Come on, mechanical brain. We're going to have a funeral.

00:40:01 #666 Let's go.

00:40:36 #667 So we're getting ready for a start now and as soon as the green flag comes down, these drivers will be on their way for a 40 laps to an 8-e-man.

00:40:43 #668 Keep moving them over.

00:40:44 #669 Here they come, it's beating the flag over there.

00:41:07 #670 We're good luck.

00:41:13 #671 Anthony Lee now brings them an error as he goes in between cars coming in on the western again

00:41:17 #672 and Billy Coyle is starting to move now too.

00:41:19 #673 Billy's back in fifth place now, but Anthony Lee is starting to move now as he is progressing rapidly and is in second position.

00:41:26 #674 The wrong boat, too.

00:41:46 #675 The more tweet, the less clear.

00:41:52 #676 It's wobbler.

00:41:53 #677 It's going to lose.

00:41:54 #678 Hey, number 75.

00:41:59 #679 I'll let you know that.

00:44:46 #680 Happy was my best friend.

00:44:48 #681 I didn't somebody say something.

00:44:59 #682 All right, come on.

00:45:02 #683 Somebody say something.

00:45:03 #684 I'm going to hear it to you.

00:45:12 #685 Okay, I'll give it to you straight from the gearbox.

00:45:14 #686 A lot of us here make our living driving race cars.

00:45:20 #687 Most of us try to stay alive when we get out on that track.

00:45:25 #688 It's a tough enough record without asking for trouble.

00:45:27 #689 So then a punk comes along who says he's gonna drive right over us.

00:45:31 #690 The only reason we don't smack him down right away is because we figured he don't mean it.

00:45:35 #691 We figured he's just flapping his big mouth.

00:45:38 #692 But you did mean it, didn't you, not head?

00:45:41 #693 A guy got killed because you tried to beat the yellow flag.

00:45:44 #694 You drove right over him, didn't you?

00:45:46 #695 It was an accident, Vic.

00:45:47 #696 Not an accident, not when you asked for it. When you asked for it, it's murder.

00:45:50 #697 My own father got killed in an accident that way.

00:45:53 #698 Let you know that.

00:45:54 #699 My own father got killed, didn't he?

00:45:56 #700 That's the difference between you and your old man.

00:45:58 #701 When you got drunk last night, another driver got killed.

00:46:00 #702 When Cannonball got drunk, he only killed himself.

00:46:03 #703 What are you trying to hand me?

00:46:04 #704 About you being drunk last night, that's no secret. You were loaded.

00:46:07 #705 I was not. What's this about my father?

00:46:09 #706 Cannonball? He was the lush. Everybody knows that.

00:46:11 #707 Why's the stick and lie?

00:46:12 #708 Why don't you stop kidding yourself?

00:46:13 #709 Your old man was a souse and a chaser.

00:46:15 #710 You're asking anybody. Ask Red.

00:46:17 #711 He finally had one dame and one bottle too many, and he got his neck broken.

00:46:20 #712 I'll just stick and lie!

00:46:22 #713 Ow!

00:46:24 #714 Now let him alone. That's enough.

00:46:55 #715 Alone, will you?

00:47:02 #716 Mom!

00:47:03 #717 What is it?

00:47:07 #718 Mom, what kind of a man was my father? What have you done? Never mind about that.

00:47:11 #719 What kind of a man was my father?

00:47:12 #720 What was my father the night before his last race?

00:47:16 #721 I don't know. He didn't come home.

00:47:19 #722 Was he drunk?

00:47:22 #723 Oh, he was in no condition to drive.

00:47:24 #724 Red begged him not to be found with him.

00:47:25 #725 Red wrote with him.

00:47:26 #726 He had to protect him.

00:47:27 #727 What happened, Mom?

00:47:29 #728 I was watching them from the grandstand.

00:47:32 #729 Towards the last I began to hope that they'd make it.

00:47:34 #730 That was the worst part of it, hoping again, because as soon as I did, he went straight into the wall.

00:47:40 #731 And I got to him, he was dead.

00:47:42 #732 And he was drunk.

00:47:46 #733 Oh, he was always irresponsible.

00:47:53 #734 And he chased after women too?

00:47:55 #735 Oh, so...

00:47:59 #736 Oh, Mom, I...

00:48:01 #737 How could he do that to you?

00:48:07 #738 I always thought he was such a great guy.

00:48:10 #739 Always wanted to be just like him.

00:48:13 #740 Don't, Billy.

00:48:14 #741 Don't cry.

00:48:22 #742 Somehow I'll take one of these. Thanks, Fred.

00:48:35 #743 What are you doing here?

00:48:45 #744 I came back to ask you if I could have my old job back.

00:48:49 #745 How far?

00:48:50 #746 Well, I'd like to drive number six, Rick.

00:48:55 #747 I'd like to take her out right now and get used to her.

00:48:57 #748 I'll train for in the napple just like a fighter would train for a fight.

00:49:00 #749 Fred, I want to know that motor, just like a book.

00:49:03 #750 I want to see what she'll do on the turns.

00:49:05 #751 I'm sorry, kid.

00:49:07 #752 You can't use me, Rick.

00:49:09 #753 I can't afford you.

00:49:10 #754 Oh, you don't have to pay me anything.

00:49:12 #755 Pay me what you like.

00:49:14 #756 No dice.

00:49:18 #757 Thanks anyway.

00:49:19 #758 Hey, I just been looking for you.

00:49:23 #759 Yeah?

00:49:24 #760 Reg, rebuilding number 50.

00:49:27 #761 So what?

00:49:28 #762 Well, it'll take him two or three weeks,

00:49:29 #763 so I'd go out and get myself another ride if I were you.

00:49:32 #764 Does that mean I'm all washed up with you?

00:49:35 #765 You know what you cost me yesterday?

00:49:37 #766 $6,000. So what? You risk your dough?

00:49:40 #767 I risked my neck at $60, $40.

00:49:42 #768 Well, you don't need to risk your neck anymore.

00:49:45 #769 Not on my account.

00:49:47 #770 How about that estimate, Fred?

00:50:15 #771 Kind of gave me a checkered flag around here.

00:50:18 #772 Yeah?

00:50:19 #773 I think I tried to hit him on purpose.

00:50:23 #774 Uh-huh.

00:50:25 #775 What do they think? I like putting a wheel through the wall.

00:50:27 #776 Look, I got work to do.

00:50:30 #777 Go check your troubles to somebody else, will you?

00:50:33 #778 Waiter.

00:50:34 #779 Thank you, Billy.

00:50:49 #780 I'm hoping to see if you have any props that need manding.

00:51:28 #781 Here's a pair that could do with a little attention.

00:51:35 #782 If there's anything you want to talk about, take these downstairs.

00:51:42 #783 Well...

00:51:44 #784 Yes, dear? Yes?

00:51:49 #785 Nobody wants me anymore.

00:51:51 #786 Oh, Billy.

00:51:53 #787 Oh.

00:51:56 #788 I wouldn't say that, dear.

00:51:59 #789 I asked every owner over at the track.

00:52:02 #790 They were all after me last month, now nobody wants me.

00:52:05 #791 Why don't you give it up, dear?

00:52:11 #792 Everybody has to stop racing sooner or later.

00:52:14 #793 Maybe this is the time for you to quit.

00:52:16 #794 I can't quit, Mom. I can't quit while I'm a failure.

00:52:19 #795 But a man can fail at one thing and be a success at something else.

00:52:22 #796 I can't. Driving is what I do best.

00:52:26 #797 If I fail now, it means I'll fail at everything I do all my life.

00:52:30 #798 Billy, did you ever stop to really think how I must feel when you're out at the racetrack?

00:52:40 #799 Every time your father drove, I had to sit in the grandstand and pray that he'd still be alive when the race was over.

00:52:48 #800 Every lap you drove, I died a little.

00:52:51 #801 You drove a hundred laps, I died a hundred times.

00:52:54 #802 In Indianapolis.

00:52:58 #803 And now I'm heading to go through the whole thing all over again.

00:53:02 #804 Every time you're off on the racetrack, I don't draw a deep breath till you're home again.

00:53:09 #805 Every time the telephone rings.

00:53:11 #806 Seems to me I can't bear it.

00:53:14 #807 I'm sorry you feel that way, Mom.

00:53:16 #808 Oh, give it up, Billy.

00:53:18 #809 Give it up before it's too late.

00:53:20 #810 I can't, Mom.

00:53:24 #811 I'm sorry, but I can't.

00:53:26 #812 But you said something that started me thinking.

00:53:35 #813 You said a guy could fail at one thing

00:53:38 #814 and make good at another.

00:53:40 #815 Or a guy could fail at one place

00:53:43 #816 and make good someplace else.

00:53:45 #817 Yes, dear, that's true.

00:53:47 #818 Well, I'll have to stay around here.

00:53:49 #819 Go back east where the big cars are and the big dough.

00:53:55 #820 Oh.

00:53:56 #821 Oh, oh, oh, mom, I'll send for you as soon as everything is all right.

00:54:02 #822 Don't worry about me, son. Just take care of yourself.

00:54:06 #823 Hello.

00:54:21 #824 I'm terribly sorry about happy. You must feel just awful.

00:54:26 #825 Thanks for saying that.

00:54:28 #826 Nobody else did.

00:54:30 #827 I heard Deacon say you weren't going to drive four bits anymore.

00:54:33 #828 You want me to talk to my father?

00:54:35 #829 Never mind.

00:54:37 #830 I'm sort of driving around here. I'm getting out.

00:54:40 #831 Out of racing?

00:54:41 #832 Out of California and going back east.

00:54:43 #833 Is it because of her?

00:54:45 #834 I saw you going to that nightclub last night.

00:54:47 #835 I'll be there in ten minutes. You'll see me come right out again.

00:54:49 #836 Oh.

00:54:50 #837 I want someone to tell my troubles too.

00:54:54 #838 Look, Billy, if you need someone to talk to...

00:54:57 #839 I can always talk to you, can I?

00:55:02 #840 You know you can.

00:55:04 #841 I'm going to level with you. You know that...

00:55:07 #842 that cute little hatch-a-war you gave me?

00:55:09 #843 The only thing with the feathers?

00:55:11 #844 No, no, it was a swell I could have in there.

00:55:13 #845 Well, I can hadn't as well girl is wearing it too, but right now I

00:55:17 #846 Haven't got time for any other kind of years at this

00:55:21 #847 Then I won't be seeing you anymore. Are you gonna be in in anapolis on Memorial Day? Uh-huh

00:55:39 #848 I'll be there too. I'll see you there. Won't I?

00:55:52 #849 Give him a kid oh

00:56:11 #850 You know how boys are he doesn't write much

00:56:14 #851 But he does send me a money order every week with love scrolled across it.

00:56:18 #852 Well, he's doing good now, all right.

00:56:27 #853 One, three straight main events.

00:56:31 #854 I wish he'd never win a race, but perhaps he'd quit.

00:56:34 #855 Oh, now, Mary.

00:56:36 #856 Oh, I'm upset, Arthur. I had a bad dream last night.

00:56:40 #857 He's driving at Salem tomorrow.

00:56:42 #858 So I'm driving straight to the concrete wall, smashed right into it, head on.

00:56:47 #859 Um, can I hurt a cry?

00:56:50 #860 Like a little child crying.

00:56:52 #861 That was no hunch, Mary.

00:56:55 #862 Those were your fears you were dreaming.

00:56:58 #863 Oh, I hate racing.

00:57:00 #864 I hate everything about it.

00:57:01 #865 Oh, no, no, you don't.

00:57:03 #866 You don't hate everything about it.

00:57:06 #867 Don't hate me, do you?

00:57:09 #868 No, I don't hate you, Red.

00:57:20 #869 Picking your pardon, Mary.

00:57:24 #870 But I love you.

00:57:28 #871 I'll take care of you.

00:57:30 #872 I'll take good care of you.

00:57:34 #873 Take care of Billy, will you, Red?

00:57:36 #874 Please take care of him.

00:57:58 #875 Thanks a lot.

00:57:59 #876 Oh, bye.

00:58:08 #877 Hiya, Mommy.

00:58:09 #878 Billy!

00:58:10 #879 Oh, darling.

00:58:11 #880 How are you, Dad?

00:58:13 #881 How are you?

00:58:15 #882 How's your leg?

00:58:16 #883 Oh, it's as good as new.

00:58:17 #884 You got my letter?

00:58:19 #885 Yeah, about you, uh, marrying Red?

00:58:21 #886 Red?

00:58:22 #887 Oh, he's such a fine man.

00:58:24 #888 Hello, kid.

00:58:25 #889 Hi, Red.

00:58:26 #890 Hey, look.

00:58:29 #891 I hope it's all right with you, me getting married to your mother.

00:58:33 #892 Yes, sure it's all right with you.

00:58:35 #893 What? What's the matter with you two?

00:58:37 #894 I like each other.

00:58:38 #895 We like each other.

00:58:39 #896 Hello, kid.

00:58:42 #897 There's one thing I want you to know.

00:58:44 #898 The reason why I wouldn't let you drive six is because you were too inexperienced.

00:58:47 #899 Yeah, sure.

00:58:48 #900 Well, I didn't want you to get your neck broken.

00:58:50 #901 Uh-huh.

00:58:51 #902 But I never thought you had anything to do with happy getting killed. You didn't.

00:58:55 #903 No.

00:58:56 #904 You weren't over-driving the yellow flag.

00:58:59 #905 You were just trying to catch up with him to show me he was losing his wheel.

00:59:06 #906 That's the way it was, right?

00:59:07 #907 We all know that now. Honest? Sure.

00:59:13 #908 You know, I didn't, uh, I didn't write you and...

00:59:17 #909 Mom much after you got married, did I? I didn't.

00:59:20 #910 Didn't get to congratulate you.

00:59:21 #911 But congratulations now, right?

00:59:25 #912 Thanks, kid. Thanks a lot!

00:59:33 #913 Yes, ladies and gentlemen, another day of qualifying here at World

00:59:36 #914 famous Indianapolis motor speedway.

00:59:38 #915 And let me tell you new covers for the automobile racing game that these time trials are definitely more wild and certainly dangerous.

00:59:46 #916 Now, I need you to know what I'm talking about. You've seen today's previous to this day of qualification.

00:59:51 #917 Well, the cars have cracked into the retaining wall and they've turned over and caught on fire.

00:59:56 #918 They've caught on fire in the car and in the vehicle. Well, the car is completely out of control.

00:59:59 #919 Now again, the time trial situation is at hand.

01:00:02 #920 And these cars must travel around the huge and certainly very dangerous two and one half mile mobile or times

01:00:08 #921 That's a 10 mile qualification run and all these drivers are coming down

01:00:13 #922 Attempting to break every crack

01:00:19 #923 All right, all right break that up you guys

01:00:22 #924 You heard me

01:00:23 #925 What are you doing down here in the pits? You know women aren't allowed down here. I'm okay with the gang

01:00:29 #926 They won't squeal. Oh, I

01:00:31 #927 I was hoping to be here two weeks ago in time to get a ride.

01:00:34 #928 Well, they didn't let me out of the hospital until Wednesday.

01:00:36 #929 Would you like me to do some of the owners?

01:00:38 #930 Gee, that'd be swell. Say, by the way, whatever happened to number one?

01:00:41 #931 Have you qualified yet?

01:00:42 #932 No, we haven't tried yet.

01:00:43 #933 Haven't qualified yet?

01:00:44 #934 Well, Vic and Dad are having some common argument. They're over in the garage now.

01:00:49 #935 Well, what are we waiting for?

01:00:51 #936 I'm through horsing around, Reno. That's 40% of the person I walk.

01:00:57 #937 You've got no place to walk. You've got no car to ride. It's too late now.

01:01:01 #938 Now okay my friend I'll drive number six for red Stanley can't do that either

01:01:04 #939 He's already got a show. He had a show sunny quit last night

01:01:08 #940 Why because number six couldn't make 125 miles an hour little take 125 to qualify well sunny didn't know how to handle a front-wheel drive

01:01:16 #941 I do after all number six has the same power plan as this car and if I can make it with this one

01:01:22 #942 I can make it with number six

01:01:24 #943 So long Reno

01:01:26 #944 Wait a minute. Thank you can't do that. Don't be a dummy now

01:01:29 #945 What are you?

01:01:30 #946 Daddy, you remember Billy Coy, don't you?

01:01:31 #947 Yeah, hello Billy.

01:01:32 #948 Billy won 100 miles, three-sects a day last month.

01:01:34 #949 He did?

01:01:35 #950 And the 50-lakh feature arrangement.

01:01:36 #951 Oh, for the...

01:01:37 #952 He got a second and now Swaggo and the trophy-dash at Williams Grove.

01:01:39 #953 What are that, Medjits?

01:01:40 #954 No, sir, big cars.

01:01:42 #955 Well, have I handled a front-wheel drive, son?

01:01:45 #956 Oh, I handled a front-wheel off-e at Dayton.

01:01:48 #957 Hey, we might be able to make a deal here.

01:01:49 #958 How'd you like to drive number one for me in the 500?

01:01:52 #959 Fine.

01:01:53 #960 I'd like it, just great.

01:01:55 #961 Huh.

01:01:56 #962 Stretch straight away, driving the Stanley special car number six.

01:02:05 #963 Will he take the white flag, signifying one lap remaining to go?

01:02:07 #964 Will he take it? Will he take it?

01:02:09 #965 He does not take the white flag.

01:02:10 #966 He does not take the white flag at all.

01:02:13 #967 And if you stretch the car, there's a chance to make a few last minute repairs and adjustments

01:02:18 #968 and two more chances to qualify the car for the big race.

01:02:23 #969 Hi, Reno.

01:02:24 #970 Come in, Bob Red.

01:02:26 #971 Now, Son, you're ready to blow off those turns this morning?

01:02:28 #972 I'm gonna keep that throttle right down to the floorboard all the way.

01:02:31 #973 No brakes, huh? No brakes.

01:02:32 #974 That's what I like about the way you drive, kid.

01:02:34 #975 You got initiative.

01:02:35 #976 Now, remember what you used to say out in California?

01:02:37 #977 You used to say I'll drive right over them.

01:02:41 #978 Did I?

01:02:42 #979 Yeah, I was there the day it drove over Happy Lee.

01:02:45 #980 Didn't mean to, Reno.

01:02:46 #981 Boy, did you jump that yellow flag out.

01:02:48 #982 Bet you beat it 20 yards.

01:02:50 #983 I didn't beat any yellow flag.

01:02:51 #984 I was trying to catch Happy to tell him he was losing his wheel.

01:02:53 #985 Oh, sure.

01:02:56 #986 Don't give me none of that old sure business.

01:02:58 #987 You talk as if I tried to kill the guy.

01:03:00 #988 I didn't say you killed the guy. I said you drove over him.

01:03:03 #989 All rights to the boy got killed. This is racing. You've got to take chances.

01:03:06 #990 What kind of chances did you ever take your phony?

01:03:09 #991 Looks like I took one chance too many when I hired a first kid to drive for me.

01:03:12 #992 Looks like you've got to try and find another driver too, because I'm through, Reno.

01:03:16 #993 Why, you dirty little grease monkey.

01:03:18 #994 You're not mad at me, are you?

01:03:24 #995 I'm not mad at you, buddy.

01:03:25 #996 Then why don't you go back and talk to Red Stanley? He's looking for a driver.

01:03:28 #997 What would he be looking for anybody for when he has Vic?

01:03:30 #998 Vic couldn't get her up to qualifying speed, so he quit.

01:03:33 #999 Yes, ladies and gentlemen, we're in the midst of another day of qualification.

01:03:41 #1000 And right now, the starter is waving all the drivers off of the track.

01:03:45 #1001 We can prepare for the next time trial, which will be on the speedway in just a moment.

01:03:50 #1002 Oh, how are you, Rex?

01:03:55 #1003 Oh, you can see for yourself.

01:03:57 #1004 What, 19-8?

01:03:59 #1005 Oh, it doesn't seem to have any soap on the turns.

01:04:02 #1006 Well, I reset the plugs. I changed the adjustment on the carburetor.

01:04:05 #1007 I switched the fuel. What's that?

01:04:07 #1008 What's what?

01:04:08 #1009 Well, that doesn't look like the same supercharger that Reno had.

01:04:10 #1010 His was way bigger.

01:04:11 #1011 Well, Daddy had a special job put on.

01:04:12 #1012 They said it would compensate for the higher temperature.

01:04:14 #1013 Yeah, I thought of that.

01:04:16 #1014 I tried to get one.

01:04:18 #1015 You look, boss.

01:04:20 #1016 Sure.

01:04:21 #1017 Well, come on. Let's get started getting the car back.

01:04:22 #1018 All right, Reno, don't blow your gasket.

01:04:24 #1019 I told you I'd drive it and I will.

01:04:25 #1020 We've got ten minutes to qualify.

01:04:27 #1021 Come on, start the motor.

01:04:28 #1022 Contact.

01:04:30 #1023 Well, come on.

01:04:32 #1024 Who would start?

01:04:33 #1025 What do you mean, I won't start?

01:04:34 #1026 Don't stop.

01:04:35 #1027 Look at under the hood.

01:04:36 #1028 Check the plug.

01:04:37 #1029 Come on, do something.

01:04:38 #1030 Come on, get in there.

01:04:40 #1031 How do you want to start?

01:04:41 #1032 There's no blower.

01:04:42 #1033 What do you mean, no blower?

01:04:43 #1034 I put on myself.

01:04:44 #1035 Look, Reno, if you're trying to get

01:04:45 #1036 to with me, I'm going to bust your wide open.

01:04:47 #1037 Me, get you with you.

01:04:48 #1038 You bring back that supercharger, or I'll have you fired for life.

01:04:51 #1039 He can't bring it back.

01:04:53 #1040 What do you mean, he can't bring it back?

01:04:54 #1041 Because he does know where it is.

01:04:56 #1042 Do you know where it is?

01:04:57 #1043 Sure, it's on number six.

01:04:58 #1044 Red junket, I'll have him arrested.

01:04:59 #1045 Get a cop.

01:05:00 #1046 Red didn't take it.

01:05:01 #1047 I gave it to him.

01:05:02 #1048 You gave it on why?

01:05:03 #1049 Because there was another one in Indianapolis and I wanted Billy to have a chance.

01:05:07 #1050 Oh, you gave him my supercharger.

01:05:08 #1051 No, I gave him my supercharger. It's my car, isn't it? Oh.

01:05:11 #1052 Now on the speedway for the third and final trial,

01:05:15 #1053 the Stanley Special, car number six, driven by Billy Coy.

01:05:19 #1054 That's all.

01:05:21 #1055 I warned you about having those kind of children. Remember?

01:05:24 #1056 If I...

01:05:25 #1057 Four times around, the skim's doing one half-mile track. Here he comes.

01:05:40 #1058 He's waiting for that blade to come down, but he did not take the money while he doth.

01:05:47 #1059 Listen to us sing.

01:05:48 #1060 He did not go in the air with signals of starter that he did not want to start.

01:05:52 #1061 And therefore he will lift up the bus more and we'll see if he'll take the plane as he moves in over there on the south turn.

01:06:01 #1062 And I might just eat the fingers crossed.

01:07:36 #1063 Forty-five miles per hour and at lap number three, one hundred fifteen point forty miles per hour.

01:07:52 #1064 I don't get it.

01:07:53 #1065 I'll never make it now.

01:07:54 #1066 What happened? Could it be the comrades?

01:07:56 #1067 I don't know what happened here.

01:07:57 #1068 Well, I guess I gotta start all over again.

01:08:00 #1069 Another year gone.

01:08:02 #1070 What a tough break.

01:08:06 #1071 Think of it, 127.40 miles per hour in the first lap, on the second lap, 126.45, and then

01:08:13 #1072 on that third lap, 115.40.

01:08:16 #1073 Ladies and gentlemen, I can't understand what could have happened, because on the fourth

01:08:19 #1074 lap, Billy Coy turned it 126.20.

01:08:22 #1075 It's a tough break indeed.

01:08:24 #1076 Sorry, Red.

01:08:27 #1077 Oh, I guess the old number six just hasn't got it.

01:08:30 #1078 The time is 6 o'clock, but qualifying for the big race has finished.

01:08:34 #1079 is finished. Oh, that's that car 92.

01:08:38 #1080 Al Harman driving will be the final thirty third car in the race.

01:08:40 #1081 He qualified at a speed of 125 point forty six miles an hour.

01:08:44 #1082 That's Sullivan car number one failed to qualify because of mechanical trouble.

01:08:48 #1083 Mechanical nothing to do to robbery to the thieves.

01:08:50 #1084 How have you arrested? Get lost.

01:08:52 #1085 Not to you for damages, but you haven't got anything.

01:08:54 #1086 You won't even have a garage when I get through with you.

01:08:56 #1087 I don't know what you're talking about.

01:08:58 #1088 I'm talking about my superchild.

01:08:59 #1089 So you're talking loose.

01:09:00 #1090 So there was a spare. I'm out of the way.

01:09:03 #1091 Attention, please. Attention, please.

01:09:04 #1092 The correction, the correction on Billy Coy's time, car number six.

01:09:07 #1093 Coy's official time, ladies and gentlemen, is faster than that of Al Harmon.

01:09:11 #1094 Because of a blot on the electric timer, the error was made.

01:09:15 #1095 So Billy Coy qualifies for the big race.

01:09:18 #1096 Oh, your lady was wonderful driving, you may have had far of made it.

01:09:24 #1097 You stole my super-tactor.

01:09:26 #1098 Well, I...

01:09:28 #1099 Oh.

01:09:29 #1100 33rd running of the 500 mile national championship automobile race here in Indianapolis, Indiana.

01:09:52 #1101 This is an international event.

01:09:54 #1102 Yes, people from all over the world have been here for days.

01:09:57 #1103 The hotels are completely sold out.

01:09:59 #1104 It's certainly is a wonderful sight to see all of these people coming from every state in the Union

01:10:04 #1105 out here to see the greatest automobile race of all time.

01:10:29 #1106 This early out of this world, full-time vintage cars now riding down the home stretch

01:10:33 #1107 and believe it or not, under their own power.

01:10:35 #1108 the models that they have gone by with driver and companion attired in early 1900 clothes.

01:10:40 #1109 While down on the pits all 33 starting cars are being checked over for minor mechanical

01:10:45 #1110 trouble. By the mechanics the car owners and the remainder of the pit crews too. Anything

01:10:49 #1111 in the way of mechanical difficulty you know can keep a car from starting the big race.

01:10:53 #1112 Right now the cars are going to be shoved out of the speedway next to the pit wall

01:10:57 #1113 and the car owners giving their drivers last minute instructions.

01:11:00 #1114 Well Red, is there anything else you want to tell me?

01:11:02 #1115 Yeah, this is the long grind, kid.

01:11:05 #1116 So don't try to win it in the first hundred miles.

01:11:07 #1117 Stay in striking distance and be ready to come in.

01:11:09 #1118 All right, gotcha.

01:11:10 #1119 I figure I'll come in for gas around 275.

01:11:13 #1120 Yeah, that's right.

01:11:14 #1121 Now take a look at the north turn.

01:11:18 #1122 See that crosswind?

01:11:19 #1123 Yeah.

01:11:21 #1124 Doesn't look like much from here,

01:11:22 #1125 but at the end of a long race, it's murder.

01:11:25 #1126 Go in low and stay in the groove. All right.

01:11:28 #1127 I hope I got you, Rick.

01:11:29 #1128 That's all I guess. Good luck, kid. Thanks, Rick.

01:11:32 #1129 Fill out, Bill.

01:11:33 #1130 Thanks George. Good luck Billy, I sure hope you win.

01:11:36 #1131 Right, Lou. Get your mind on the race, little boy.

01:11:39 #1132 Don't worry about me.

01:11:40 #1133 Attention please, ladies and gentlemen.

01:11:43 #1134 The fake moment is about to take place.

01:11:45 #1135 The fake 500 mile decoration day race is about to begin.

01:11:49 #1136 The cars are on the speedway.

01:11:51 #1137 The pace car directly in front of the first three lead cars.

01:11:54 #1138 The pace car driven by the president of Indianapolis Speedway, Wilbur Shaw.

01:11:59 #1139 The lead cars on the pole, toothed nail on, in the center of the first row, Rex Mays,

01:12:03 #1140 and on the outside is Jack McGrath, the three lead cars.

01:12:07 #1141 Ladies and gentlemen, the great human history of this year's race,

01:12:20 #1142 the second generation of the wheel of car six, the Stanley Special,

01:12:26 #1143 Ladies and gentlemen, I'd like to mention the fact that Billy Toy is the son of Cannonball Toy,

01:12:38 #1144 the great driver of yesterday who was killed at the north turn of this racetrack.

01:12:44 #1145 These cars coming out of the north...

01:12:53 #1146 Those cars that passed me all but two were...

01:27:30 #1147 That gives us enough to build any car we want.

01:27:35 #1148 Come on, let's get your off six.

01:27:37 #1149 Please, Bill Holland has made one of those wonderful sporting gestures

01:28:02 #1150 that make automobile racing the sport that it really is.

01:28:05 #1151 He will not receive the famous Borg-Warner trophy,

01:28:07 #1152 the cup that has always been presented to the winner of this race.

01:28:10 #1153 But he insists that the officials award custody of the Borg-Warner trophy

01:28:14 #1154 to a driver who did not win the race,

01:28:16 #1155 but who won the hearts of the whole racing world with his skill, his daring, and his great courage.

01:28:21 #1156 We present the trophy to Billy Cannonball Collins!
