Announcer
those thrilling days of yesteryear.
Narrator
From out of the past come the thundering hoof beats of the great horse Silver.
Announcer
The Lone Ranger rides again. Come on Silver, let's go big for Silver.
Narrator
Race. Mooney, manager of a vast Circle B ranch near Centralia, Texas, was almost beside himself with rage when he called at a neighboring ranch house to see his friend, Jack Paris, gambler and cattle owner.
Race Mooney
Sit down, Ray. Sit down and calm yourself. What's wrong. This letter is from Claude Baron. He's the easterner who owns the Circle B.
Flash Ogden
Read what he says.
Race Mooney
He fired me. As manager of the ranch, he's sending his son here to take my place. Baron must have finally realized that he's losing money on the ranch. Yeah, maybe so. But Mooney here, he'll let you stay on his foreman. Looks like he doesn't know you've been robbing him. I'm sure he doesn't.
Flash Ogden
But his son is sure to know
Race Mooney
I've stolen money when he examines the books and bank records. You expect me to give back what you lost to me? Playing cards know, Jack. But I've.
Announcer
You have.
Race Mooney
Two weeks before young Baron arrives. Draw all the Circle B cash from the bank and head for Mexico. I can't draw any more cash. Banker Cardiff told me so this morning. He had orders from the old man. Wait a minute. Wait a minute, Race. I have an idea. As Banker Cardiff ever met young Baron? No. Then suppose someone comes here in his place. Place? Who? Flash Ogden, a pal of mine in Kansas. I'll send him a wire and tell him to meet her. I'll help you, Race, and we'll both make a cleanup.
Narrator
The following week, in a town some distance from Centralia, Jack Terrace and Race Mooney met secretly with a man from Kansas, Flash Ogden, and went over Paris's plan for waylaying Phil Baron.
Race Mooney
Baron's supposed to arrive in Centralia a week from today. Flash. Only you'll be the one who arrived. I'll be there with the Badger to meet you.
Narrator
Flash, as soon as you're established as
Race Mooney
Phil Baron, you can start drawing cash from the bank. Right Heavy.
Flash Ogden
But where do we get rid of Baron?
Race Mooney
At Arkantex Junction, the state stop Bed Kings, drivers and horses. Now, here's how it'll work.
Narrator
One week later, the stagecoach from the east reached Arkansas Junction early in the morning. As the passengers left the stage, Flash Ogden stepped forward and said, Mr. Bear.
Announcer
Which of you is Mr. Baron?
Carvana Customer
I'm.
Announcer
Sir.
Race Mooney
What do you want? Good. I'm glad I found you, Mr. Barron. What is it you want?
Flash Ogden
Well, first let me introduce myself.
Race Mooney
I'm Robert Smith of Centralia. My ranch is next to the Circle B. Oh, yes. I've heard my father speak of you. Glad to know you, Mrs. Smith.
Narrator
As the two shook hands, Flash looked around to make sure all of the other passengers as well as the driver of the stage had gone inside the building. Satisfied that his next move would not be seen, his manner changed abruptly.
Flash Ogden
All right, don't raise Your voice. Do as I say or I'll use it.
Race Mooney
This is a hole. It isn't. Just walk ahead of me along the
Flash Ogden
side of the building.
Narrator
Baron thought fast and decided that the safest course would be to do as the man with a gun demanded. He held his hands at shoulder level and walked ahead of Flash, hoping someone would see his predicament.
Race Mooney
Just keep going to the woods straight ahead. Is this some sort of a joke? Maybe.
Flash Ogden
Just keep walking.
Narrator
Presently, the two men entered the dark woods. Baron was about to speak when Flash, using his gun as a club, struck him on the head, Lifting the unconscious Easterner across the saddle of a rented horse that waited nearby. Flash mounted behind the saddle and rode to a nearby stone quarry. Jack Paris was waiting beside a big boulder near the rim of the quarry.
Announcer
Is he dead?
Race Mooney
No, Paris. I couldn't risk a shot.
Narrator
People in the station might have heard it.
Flash Ogden
I knocked him out.
Narrator
Help me get him onto the ground.
Flash Ogden
Yeah, sure. There we are.
Race Mooney
Now, let's see what he has in his pockets. Wallet, envelope, letters, money.
Flash Ogden
More letters, more money.
Race Mooney
And more papers. There isn't light enough to read this stuff. We'll have to strike matches or wait for more daylight. We can read it if we get away from these. Rush? No, no, no.
Flash Ogden
There's no rush.
Race Mooney
It'll be lighter in a few minutes.
Narrator
I want to see what we have.
Race Mooney
I want to be sure I have everything I need to pose as Phil Baron.
Narrator
Leading the still form of Phil Baron, Flash and Jack moved a few yards away from the rocks where there was better light. Now to see what we have.
Race Mooney
Hey, that looks like a chicken.
Flash Ogden
Check.
Race Mooney
Yeah, Cashier's check for $10,000. Jack, look at this. A letter of credit for $25,000. And here's a statement from the bank of Centralia. Hey, according to this, there's more than $30,000 in the account. Man alive, this is a bonanza. Hey, Jack, is Race Mooney a good friend of yours?
Announcer
That sucker?
Race Mooney
No, no, he's just a good source of money. I've been using mark cards to beat
Narrator
him for more than a year.
Race Mooney
He tapped the Circle B bank account and handed over cattle stock to me
Narrator
to split his losses.
Race Mooney
Jack, what's the matter?
Flash Ogden
Baron's running away.
Race Mooney
Yeah, I see him. He's running toward the quarry.
Announcer
Hey, Baron, come on. I'll stop him.
Race Mooney
You got him. Play. He dropped into the quarry. Yeah, but your bullet hit him just before he went over the edge. Well, that takes care of him. Now, I'll be. Phil Baron. Yes, Flash. And you better get Back to the station. You got just enough time to make
Narrator
it before the state go to leave.
Announcer
I'll meet you in Centralia.
Narrator
The Lone Ranger and Toto were breaking camp in the hills high above the stone quarry when they heard the shots. The masked man peered through binoculars in the direction of the sound and saw two men ride from the quarry heading in opposite directions.
Flash Ogden
Auto, go to the quarry and find out what that shooting meant.
Narrator
A short time later, the Lone Ranger and Taho reached the stone quarry. As they dismounted, they heard from the depths the cry for help. Going below, the masked man and his Indian friend found Baron alive but injured. He was given first aid and carried to the top of the quarry. There he identified himself, told what had happened and what he had heard while lying on the ground pretending to be unconscious. One of them is going to the
Race Mooney
bank this morning with Mooney. He'll impersonate me and I'd get the money.
Announcer
And
Race Mooney
he must have been in faint. Him need doctor.
Flash Ogden
There's no doctor in Arkantex Junction. The nearest one is in Centralia.
Race Mooney
I know.
Flash Ogden
We'll place this man on your horse. You take him to doctor in Centralia.
Race Mooney
Me do it.
Flash Ogden
Meanwhile, I'll ride cross country to Centralia. Be our friend Marshall Kylie and have him arrest those two men. That's I'll be in Centralia at the marshal's office and see you there later this morning. Soon as we get Baron on your horse, I'll go on ahead.
Narrator
When the stagecoach from St. Louis arrived in Centralia, Race Mooney was waiting with banker Joshua Cardiff. Mooney greeted Flash Ogden effusively. The men had breakfast at the nearby hotel, then proceeded to the Centralia. They were already in the bank when the Lone Ranger entered the town through the hills and made his way along a deserted back street to the rear of Marshall Kiley's office. He dismounted and walked to the side door. But the door was locked and on it was pasted a note which the masked man read.
Flash Ogden
Gone to the county seat to deliver prisoner will return about noon. Tom Kiley Marshall's almost two hours away. Better go to the bank myself.
Narrator
In Joshua Cardiff's private office, Race Mooney and Flash Ogden, posing as Philip Barron, casually brought up the matter of making immediate withdrawal of a sum in five figures. Cardiff opened the bank safe which was in his office saying, keep cash available
Announcer
Here in this cash box, more than 55,000. No, no, you can't come in here. Mr. Carter. Mr. Carter. What's in Yasin? What's wrong? It's a hold on There. He wants it.
Flash Ogden
Get out of my way.
Announcer
Here's Carter. A mash man. It's a hold up.
Flash Ogden
Up in your hand.
Race Mooney
You're covered.
Flash Ogden
You, clerk. Same here with the others.
Announcer
Yes, My hands are up.
Flash Ogden
Flash, don't make a move towards your gun.
Announcer
What did you say?
Flash Ogden
Mr. Cardiff, let me introduce you to Flash. Ogden.
Announcer
What are you saying? This is Mr. Philip Baron?
Flash Ogden
That's what he says. I suppose this other fellow, Race Mooney, says the same thing. You are Race Mooney, aren't you?
Race Mooney
Yes, I am Race Mooney.
Flash Ogden
I don't know what you're talking about.
Race Mooney
This is Mr. Baron.
Announcer
Of course he is. Even without Mooney says so. I have proof. But you, mister, you're a hold up man. Don't think you'll get away with this money though. The marshal.
Flash Ogden
Marshal Kiley's out of town. I just came from his office.
Announcer
You did?
Race Mooney
Yes.
Flash Ogden
Don't let this mask fool you, Mr. Cardiff. I'm not a thief. And this man isn't still a Baron.
Narrator
We'll continue our Lone Ranger adventure in just a moment.

Announcer
Get on your way with sweeties.
Race Mooney
Sort of gives a guy a lisp knowing that champions are made, not born. For instance, let's trace the inspiring story of Al Rosen, famed Cleveland Indian slugger. Let's go back when Al was small. An average boy, no champ at all. He practiced hitting third base play and ate his Wheaties every day just as chance get on their way today. I'll smack that ball a mile. Been eating Wheaties all this while? Why, Al Rosen's been eating Wheaties since he was a little guy 20, 22 years ago. Plenty of power. All right in Wheaties. There's a whole kernel of wheat in every Wheaties place. Now, El Fark.
Announcer
And here's a pitch. Hey, hey, hey. He's on his way. On his way. He's on his way, on his way. Get on your way with sweeties. Cause champions are made. Not far. Yes, sir. Get on your way.
Narrator
Get on your way.
Announcer
Get on your way with sweeties. Breakfast of champions.
Narrator
Now to continue. For a moment, there was silence in the banker's office as the man stared at the Lone Ranger. Then Cardiff said, what's your game?
Announcer
You say you're not a thief, yet you hold a gun on us. You tell a cock and bull story about Mr. Baron being a person named Flash Ogden.
Flash Ogden
Sure he is. Flash Ogden. He's a gunman and card sharp from which it all.
Race Mooney
You're crazy.
Flash Ogden
What I say can be easily proven. You won't let that know.
Narrator
When Flash reached for his gun, the Lone Ranger was ready. His own gun boxed first, and the bullet struck Ogden's wrist.
Announcer
My wrist. Hedwigs, don't come in here. Get help. Round up the men in town. Need to hold up. Grab the mask, man. Race, don't try it.
Flash Ogden
Get back there, Mooney. Cardiff, you're a fool. I told you this wasn't a hold up.
Announcer
These men. These men will help me. Prefer charges against you when you're arrested, you can't escape. Now the whole town will be here.
Narrator
After you in a few minutes maybe.
Flash Ogden
But I'll do a few things first. Burke, open the door next to you. There.
Announcer
There you are.
Flash Ogden
All right, men, get into that closet big enough to hold all of you. And you, Mooney, loosen your gun belt
Race Mooney
and drop it to the floor.
Flash Ogden
Now get into that closet.
Announcer
They're asking. You can't escape.
Flash Ogden
I'll try Cardiff. And to keep those cooks from stealing the bank's money, I'll take it with me. Now, join the others in that closet.
Narrator
After locking Cardiff in the closet, the load Ranger quickly closed and locked the door between the office and the main room of the bank. Then, with a money box under his arm, hurried through the rear door and ran to the side of his horse.
Flash Ogden
There's a mob after mon. That was close. They'll never catch me. I must locate t before he reaches town.
Narrator
The Lone Ranger sped along the wooded path that ran through the hills above the main trail. He had ridden only a few miles when he saw tle riding toward Centralia with a wounded Phil. Baron popped in front of him on the saddle, surprisingly. Riding beside Toto was Marshall Tom Kiley. The Lone Ranger reined his horse and
Announcer
called, easy, Marshall Tyler.
Flash Ogden
See you, Silver. Let's get down there.
Race Mooney
Come on, boy.
Flash Ogden
Oh, easy, Toddo. You made good times. Marshall Kiley. I'm certainly glad to see you.
Announcer
Hello there. You say the same to you? I met Tonto at the crossroads. He's been telling me what happened to this fella here.
Flash Ogden
How is Baron Todo?
Race Mooney
Him still bad, but pulse seemed good. Him plenty strong.
Announcer
Doc Fairbanks is a good saw, Bones. He'll fix this fellow up if he's fixable. But tell us what happened in town. Sorry I couldn't be there.
Flash Ogden
So am I. I looked for you, saw your note and then acted on my own.
Narrator
The Lone Ranger quickly told of the incidents in banker Cardiff's office.
Flash Ogden
He ended, I escaped before they caught up with me. I imagine half the town's trailing me.
Race Mooney
What you want do, Kimasabi?
Flash Ogden
Baron told us. Well, the two men at the stone quarry was named Jack. I didn't meet him, but he must be somewhere in town.
Announcer
There's a lot of men named Jack in town.
Flash Ogden
Yes, but only one who wanted to kill Baron. I thought if he saw Toto carrying Baron to the doctor, we might try to kill Baron for certain. This time, though, I came to warn Tahlo to be on the lookout.
Announcer
Baron's in danger. We'd better take him to my home in the hills. Have the doctor go there to treat him.
Flash Ogden
Good Idea, Marshall. Tata will transfer Baron to my horse and you ride to town for the doctor.
Announcer
Doc knows where my place is.
Narrator
It was about an hour later when Kato and the doctor reached the Marshall home in the hills. While the doctor was in the bedroom with a wounded man, the marshal said,
Announcer
well, Tondo, what's happening in town? Should I be in there now?
Race Mooney
People in town plenty excited. On way back we see vigilantes. Them look everywhere for masked man who rob banks.
Announcer
Well, they'll never think of looking here in my house that sure. And Tonto, while you were gone, we fixed up a little plan. And you're in on it.
Race Mooney
Oh, that's good.
Announcer
I'll show you a cabin where we plan to trap the crook.
Flash Ogden
We'll go to the cabin and arrange things. Toto, then you go to town and find Race Mooney. I'll make sure he's alone and tell him you know the inside story of the bank robbery and can lead him to the masked man.
Narrator
It was late afternoon when Toto located Race Mooney in the Dry Ghauss Cafe. Mooney with Flash Ogden and Jack Paris had written with the vigilantes in their unsuccessful search for the man who robbed the Centralia Bank. When the furtive acting Indian drew Mooney aside and spoke to him, the ex manager of the Circle B was excited. Finally he went to his pals, Jack Flash.
Race Mooney
See that engine over by the door? Now listen. He says he knows all about that hold up today. He says he knows where the masked man's hiding out with the money. He'll take us to the hideout if we give him $50.
Flash Ogden
If he can do that, promise him a hundred.
Race Mooney
Sure. Promise him anything.
Flash Ogden
There.
Narrator
Place up.
Flash Ogden
Cabin's not far out of the way.
Race Mooney
Why'd he pick a place like that if he did? Let's find out. There's a light inside the cabin. Then we'll sneak up and find out if the engine's telling the truth. Yeah. Race, you stay here with the engine. Keep a lookout. All right. Watch him too. Coming, Jack? Yeah, sure, Race. We'll be back soon. Well, there they go into the cabin. Injun, are you sure the money's up there?
Announcer
Of course. You sure?
Race Mooney
What?
Narrator
Marshal Tyler?
Announcer
Yeah, Race. I've been waiting for you with some deputies. Don't move or I'll plug it. Don't try to yell.
Race Mooney
This is a trap.
Announcer
Call at the end. Race man, handcuff him. Nice work, Tonto. Josh Cardiff, some more deputies and Doc Fairbanks are up behind the cabin. Listen at the open window. Let's join them. I told you we had some fixing to do while you were gone.
Narrator
Flash Ogden and Jack Paris thought they had caught the masked man. Unprepared, they chided and reviled him as Flash counted the money in the bank container. Then, as Jack held his gun pointed at the Lone Ranger, Flash Ogden finished
Race Mooney
and said, stranger, before we kill you, I'll ask where. One question. How'd you know he killed Philip Baron? How'd you know he'd be in the bank of Centralia?
Flash Ogden
You didn't kill Baron.
Race Mooney
What?
Flash Ogden
He's alive, Here in Centralia. He heard you talk, and he told me what you said. But more people heard you talk just now. Isn't that right, Marshall?
Announcer
Mr. Carter?
Narrator
They sounded. Crooks gasped in alarm and turned toward the open window.
Race Mooney
The Lone Ranger leaped at Jack Harris
Narrator
and grabbed the man's gun. Then he sent a fist crashing into the crook's jaw, knocking him out.
Flash Ogden
Flash, turn around. You're covered. I know you can't use that bad wrist to shoot. So forget about your gun.
Narrator
You dirty rattler.
Announcer
Taking me like this. Changer your plan work. You did it. Blackhawks in your goose's coat. Be glad we're not going to hold you for murder. Philip Barron's gonna live, right, Mr. Cotter? Yes.
Race Mooney
Well, I'm glad.
Announcer
But above all, I must apologize to the mask man. I not only have the money back,
Flash Ogden
I got the apology to me. Mr. Cardiff, I'm leaving. Matado. Apologize to Phil Baron. When he's recovered, I'm sure you'll find him a much better man than that poor impersonator Fly Shogden. Adios, everyone.
Announcer
Adios, Marshall.
Race Mooney
Kylie.
Announcer
Adios, my friend. And thanks for helping me. Again.
Race Mooney
Again?
Announcer
You said Marshall. You mean you knew that mash man before today? Why, certainly. Every lawman in Texas does, too. You see, he's the Lone Ranger.
