Narrator
United States MAR Wild Bill Hickok and his big good natured deputy Jingles never seemed to ride a train without meeting adventure head on. It was no different on the trip they were making from Tucson to El Paso. They had no sooner put Buckshot and Joker in the baggage car and returned to settle back in their red plush Pullman car seats when up the aisle toward them, both guns drawn, stalked the Tucson Terror.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Billy's got both them six guns aimed square for my wishbone.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Looks bad for us, Jingles.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
He's coming closer, Bill. We ain't got a chance.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Not a chance.
Wild Bill Hickok
You bet you ain't got a chance. Bang, bang. Got your balls.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Yeah, you sure did, youngster. You must be the best gun fighter in the whole wide world.
Wild Bill Hickok
No, there's one better than me. But I'm the best in Tucson when he's not there.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Now, who's this fast drawn gent that's better than you are?
Wild Bill Hickok
Wild Bill Hickok. Nobody can outdraw Wild Bill.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Bill, did you hear that?
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Yeah. For the sake of my health, I hope he's right.
Wild Bill Hickok
They call me the Tucson Terror. What do they call you?
Narrator
Me?
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Oh, they call me the Shooting Sidewinder from East side Alien.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
What's your real name, Button?
Wild Bill Hickok
Sonny West. What's your names?
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Well, I'm Jingles and this is Wild Bill Hickok. Sonny.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Wild Bill?
Wild Bill Hickok
You mean he's the real Wild Bill?
Jingles (Andy Devine)
In person.
Wild Bill Hickok
Jiminy Hop. Toads. Sheep. Wild Bill.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Put her there, Sonny. Glad to meet you.
Wild Bill Hickok
I'm traveling by myself to see my uncle. You want to play catch the robbers with me?
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Well, I ain't much for running up and down the aisle, Sonny.
Wild Bill Hickok
Oh, you don't have to do that. I'll go find the loot and spot the robbers and report back to you.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Now, that's the way I like to play. All right, now, you go right ahead, Sonny, and I'll just catch 40 winks.
Wild Bill Hickok
You won't have time to sleep. I work fast.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
I was afraid of that.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Looks like you found a new partner, Jingle.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Yeah. Lively little button, ain't he?
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Yeah, smart as a whip. Oh, look out. There he comes back.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
There ain't no way for me to get my nappy.
Wild Bill Hickok
Well, Chief, I found the loot, but I didn't spot the robbers yet. Here.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Hey, now, where'd you get this little black bag?
Wild Bill Hickok
Down in the next car. All hoots always carry the loot in a little black bag, don't they?
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Yeah, but I.
Wild Bill Hickok
Well, that's the only one I could find. You're supposed to look in it now and send me back to trail the robbers.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Yeah, I'll look in it all right. Then send you to take it back to who it belongs to. Just let me get it open here.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
I hope the owner doesn't see you doing that, Jingles.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Yeah, I might have a lot of expl. Look at this.
Wild Bill Hickok
Is it the loot? Jingles, Is it?
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
What's the matter, Jingles? You look like you'd found a rattlesnake in that bag.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
I found worse than that, Bill. Look at this. Gold notes. Just stacks of them on the Tucson bank.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
What? Sonny, where'd you get this bag?
Wild Bill Hickok
I just borrowed it from a couple of men that were sleeping. I didn't mean nothing by Wild Bill.
Narrator
Bill.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
That Tucson bank was robbed last week. There's a poster out on it.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
That's right, partner. Come on, Sonny, you show us those two men.
Wild Bill Hickok
Sure, Wild Bill. Right down on the next car, like I said. Come on.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Better be careful, Jingles. We can't start any gunplay on this train.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Somebody might get hurt.
Wild Bill Hickok
It's the third seat in this next car, Wild Bill.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
All right, Sonny, you stay here. There might be trouble.
Wild Bill Hickok
Aw, Jiminy Hop Jones. I'll miss all the shooting.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
That's a general idea.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Come on, Jingle.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Bill. There ain't nobody in the third seat on either side.

Loves Pops. Kids love Pops. Pops love Pops. As a cereal or as a snack. Those golden nuggets of pre sweetened Popsicorn sure are popular with everybody.

Get the package. With Guy Madison and Andy Devine thundering down the trail on their horses, that's Kellogg's Sugar Corn Pops.
Wild Bill Hickok
Yippee. Sugar Pops.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
They're sugar coated. Tastes so sweet.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Just pour on some milk.
Wild Bill Hickok
Why, they're neat.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Kellogg.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Sugar Corn Pops, Sugar Pops are tops. Now Sugar Pops, you know, are sweet.
Wild Bill Hickok
But cowboys know there's an extra treat.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Right out of the box.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Take a handful out, pop them into your mouth as you run about.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Kellogg's Sugar Corn Pops.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Sugar Pops are Pops.
Narrator
While Bill and Jingles were searching through the train for the bank robbers, when they opened the door to a dark vestibul and sudden gunfire crashed around their ears.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Bill, somebody tried to plug me.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Did you see him, partner?
Jingles (Andy Devine)
No dog on it. All I saw was a blinding flash and then lead whizzed around my head.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
I didn't hear the door open. Whoever it was must have climbed up on top of the train. I'm going up there after him.
Wild Bill Hickok
Wild Bill, did you catch the robbers?
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Not yet, Button, no. Now you get back inside that car and don't stick your nose out till you get to where you're going in the morning.
Wild Bill Hickok
Aw, Jiminy. I want to help you.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
You've been help already, sonny. Now hunt cover like I said. Bill, Wait for me.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Don't lose that money back, Jingles.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
I can't. I got it buckled on my gun belt. Bill, you see them garments up here any place?
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
I think they ran up for the head end. Jingles.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Come on, Bill. It's too dark to be running up here.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Just watch your step, partner.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Bill. Bill. There they are. Two dark figures up ahead. Keep down, Jingles.
Wild Bill Hickok
Keep down nothing.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
I'm gonna knock those pigeons off this roof.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Jingles are jumping off the train now.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Dadgummit. We'll have to get our horses and chase them. Right.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
I'll go down inside and pull the emergency cord. Meet you at the baggage car.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Dog gun. Those two bank rob environments, they sure did stir up a hornet snatch for us on this trench. Uh oh. Sure didn't take Bill long to pull that cord. The train's stopping already. Hey, take it easy. You darn near threw me off on my head.
Narrator
All right, Jingles. Hurry it up.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
I'm a coming, Bill. Climbing up, climbing down. Running all over. Doggone it, if I keep this up, I'm gonna be bear hungry by morning.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Come on, Jingles, hit the saddle. We got a couple of varmints to catch.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Whoa, Joker. Now, give me a chance, will you? All right, Bill, I'm with you.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Then let's ride.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
High buckshot, high jack. Joker. Stretch, boy.
Wild Bill Hickok
Ha.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Bill, we've been circling for more than two hours and we ain't turned up nothing more than two rattlesnakes and a baby deer.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Hold it, Jingle. Hold it. There's a light off there to our left.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Must be a farmhouse a. Bill, this section's been settled by a bunch of homesteaders, I hear.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Then we'll make a visit to a couple of them and see if we can catch a hot trail. Pick them up, bug shot.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
I'd rather catch a hot meal if it's all the same to you. You. Come to think of it, these folks might be just friendly enough to invite us in for some vittles.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
They might, Jingles, but I think we'd better let them know we're around first. Ho. Ho. What? Shot. Hello.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Hello there. Bill. The light went out.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Well, partner, how do you like that?
Jingles (Andy Devine)
I don't like it one little bit. That ain't making us very welcome.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Any place we're not welcome is a place to start looking for those two robbers. Come on, let's go in and ride.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Right down them gun barrels. Bill, have you gone local?
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
There's no moon, Jingles. They can't see us any more than we can see them. Come on, Bookchuck, get out of here.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Sometimes I wonder why I let you get me into things like this.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
You got me into this one by playing with that youngster on the train, remember?
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Yeah, I did, didn't I? Let that be a lesson to me too.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
All right, pull up here and be quiet.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
One snort out of you and I'll cut off your snorter too.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Watch yourself, Jingles. You still got that money back?
Jingles (Andy Devine)
I sure have, but I wish I'd never seen it. Hey, Bill, ain't been no more shooting since we came in that gate.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
I noticed that. But don't get careless.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Who's out there? Don't you do more.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Let that lantern a little higher, Mr. Bill.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
He don't look very dangerous. Me? Dangerous?
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Oh, not at all.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
I. I wouldn't hurt a rabbit even if I could catch it. Then. Then what was you shooting at us for? It wasn't me that done that shooting.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
It was get it out, mister. Get it out. We'd like to know who's shooting at us and why here. Ya.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Who are you anyway? How. How come all this had to happen at my house?
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
You had other visitors tonight, old timer.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
I sure have. They was the ones that did the shooting. Then they run out the back when you come in the front. Said they was taking my two saddle horses. Bill. They got away.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
You wasted a lot of our time, mister. Come on, Jingles. Let's head around to the barn.
Spin Quest Legal Disclaimer
Now.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Bill, couldn't we rest here and pick up their trail in the morning?
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
It'll be light before long. Pardon? Steady bucks are steady D. Ain't nobody.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Going to tell me who they are. We're Wild Bill Hickok and Jingle, that's who. Next time you see us, have some beans on the stove. Bill, ever since it got daylight I ain't had no trouble at all following those jaspers tracks.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Those all hoots have a good reason for keeping us on their trail, they do.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
What's that, Bill?
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
It's that little black bag hanging on your gun belt.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Oh that.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Yes, that. They just might figure to set up an ambush and take that money back from it.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
I hadn't thought of that, Bill.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Well, keep it in mind, partner. And you're out to stay healthy.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Bill, you wouldn't like to carry this bag for a while, would you?
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
We're coming into Hill City. We'll find a good strong safe to put it in.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Can't find it any too soon for me.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
There's livery stable. We better put the horses in there for now then.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
I got three things to find before I go looking for those jaspers anymore.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Three things?
Jingles (Andy Devine)
You said it. A good fat breakfast, a hot bath and a great big soft feather bed. The sooner we can get out of the saddle, the sooner I can find all three of them.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Duck your head, Jingles, there's a low door.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Yeah. There you are, Joker. What boy? L. Stable sure is dark, Bill.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
And hang up your saddle and let's get out in the daylight.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Yeah, you know. Bill. Behind you. Work, beans.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Nice clean work.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Hey, you got hiccups too? Hill Reese.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Yeah, right behind the ear.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Put him out like a busting lantern. What are we going to do with him now? Nothing. Leave him here. Just get that little black bag off of the big one and let's high tail it for nowhere. Yeah, he's got it right on his gun belt. If I can get it loose.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Hey Bean, look out.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Pick up horses coming for you. Hey, get back your local hammerhead down Your ornery cows get that money back. I can't get near it, Race. That horse will kill me and I'll get it. Hey, Race, look out. You just missed your head.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Yeah.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Come on, let's get out of here. Yeah, we don't want for another chance to get these two star makers when their darn horse ain't around.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Hey. Hey. What's the matter, Buckshot? All right, boy. Coming around. Hey, Jingles. Come on, Jingles, wake up.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Go away, Bill. I ain't ready to get up yet.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Jingles. Come to partner.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Bill. What? Oh.
Wild Bill Hickok
Oh.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Oh my God.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Bill.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
I got a bump as big as a turkey egg on him.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Looks like we got cut off guard this time, Bill.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
The money.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Yeah, where is it?
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Oh, yeah, it's here. I've still got it.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
How does that happen?
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Search me. If them farm and slugged us to get the money, why didn't they take it? This ain't making sense, Bill.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Hold it, Jingles. Drag a match. I got an idea.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
What is it, Bill?
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Look here on the ground. Those deep tracks were made by Buckshot's hind feet.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Billy don't dig in that deep unless he rare it up on his hind legs of fighting.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
You're right, Jingles. And that's the answer to why you still have that money bag. Buckshot fought those robbers off.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Well, bless his Henry Hyde. He's a better lawman than both of us put together.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Yeah. Now we better go out and find those two Jaspers or Buckshot's going to be mighty disappointed in us.
Wild Bill Hickok
Foreign.

Jingles (Andy Devine)
Now, who in blistering thunder is coming to pester me, Sheriff? Don't you go hollering at us before you get a chance to know who we are, you mean tempered old goat.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Easy, Jingles.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Well, that ain't no way to greet strangers. Reinstate your business and get going. Who are you?
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Howdy, Sheriff. I'm Bill Hickok, U.S. marshal.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Well, Bill Hickok. Well, why didn't you say so? Well, why didn't you give us a chance then? This stuffed up Gunny sack's bound to be Jingles, ain't it? Gunny Sack? Doggone it, you make it mighty hard for a man to be friendly, Sheriff. No offense, Jingles. Mighty proud to meet you, James. What brings you to Hill City?
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
We trailed a couple of bank robbers here, Sheriff. Thought you might give us a hand.
Narrator
Bank robbers?
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Yeah, bank robbers. If you'd have been on your toes, you'd have seen the posters on the Tucson bank robbery. No, I know all about the Tucson robbery, wing bag. And I also know the robbers got away from you on the train.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
How'd you get that dope, Sheriff?
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Learned it all from the Tucson Terror.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Ever heard of him?
Jingles (Andy Devine)
The Tucson Terror? Yeah, we've heard of him. Wish we had.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Me too.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
That young scalawag is my nephew. And since he hit this town Hill City's not been the same.
Wild Bill Hickok
Yippee. Uncle Rip, I got him surrounded. Put up your hands, you sidewinders. I'm T. Jim Hop Tools. It's Wild Bill and Jingles.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Yes, it is, you pint sized tornado. Now, simmer down. We got business to take care of. No. Go ahead, Jingles.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Sit on the young pup.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Maybe that'll keep him quiet.
Wild Bill Hickok
You wouldn't want me to be quiet, Uncle Rip, if you knew. I knew what I know.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Huh?
Jingles (Andy Devine)
What was that again?
Wild Bill Hickok
I know where the robbers are.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Are you sure, sonny?
Wild Bill Hickok
Sure I'm sure. And I know they're plotting to kill Jingles and take that money back, too.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Well, here, Bill, take this money and put it in the safe. Put it anywhere, but let me get rid of it.
Narrator
Bill.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Oh, Bill, don't let this young spoofer take you in. He's been bringing me more imaginary hoodlums than the west ever knew about today.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Sonny, you better simmer down and make sense with me.
Wild Bill Hickok
Sure, Wild Bill. Anything you say.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
You heard those two plotting to kill Jingles and get the money back.
Wild Bill Hickok
I sure did. They didn't see me under the table.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Under the table?
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Quiet, Jingles. What else did they say?
Wild Bill Hickok
They said if it hadn't been for your horse, Wild Bill they'd have had the money and gone by now.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Where are these two barman, Sonny?
Wild Bill Hickok
Down at the Tin Horn Cafe, eating breakfast.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Breakfast? You mean they're sitting there eating breakfast and plotting my death? Come on, Phil. I'm going to make those two sidewinders, which they'd never live to see this day.
Wild Bill Hickok
There's the cafe, Wild Bill. We better sneak up to the window first, huh?
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
That's a good idea, Sonny.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Bill, what if they make a run for it out the back door?
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
The sheriff's got that covered, Jingle.
Wild Bill Hickok
There they are. Wild Bill. We gonna go right in and nab.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
It's not quite that simple, Sonny.
Wild Bill Hickok
Why not?
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
We have to make them give themselves away.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Yeah, but how are we gonna do that, Bill?
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Well, I figure it's about time you had something to eat. Pardon?
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Yeah, it's way past my breakfast time.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Then you go in and order a big dinner in there where they are. Sure. And we'll just strap this little black bag on your gun belt again.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
But, Bill, there ain't no money in it.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Now, the robbers don't know that.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Oh, so they'll try to get it from me just the same, huh? Now, hold on, Bill Hickok. That's just like asking.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
Don't go worrying, Jingles. I'll be right here. If they start anything, they've got to make them tip their hand.
Wild Bill Hickok
And besides, Jingles, you said you were hungry, didn't you?
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Well, all right. But don't take your eyes off of me for one little minute.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)
I won't, Jingles.
Jingles (Andy Devine)
Good luck to you, dog. I don't like being the bait in the trap one little bit. Oh, spotted me already. Well, I'll just order me up a big dinner and forget all about him. Hey, waiter. Oh, here they come. Here they come. I hear you call Mr. Y. I called the waiter. But you ain't no waiter.
Wild Bill Hickok (Guy Madison)

You're gonna have another bump on your head. Now, that ain't being very sociable. Why don't you just sit down, gents, and have a cup of coffee? Come on. Come on.
