00:13:22such behavior doesn't fit you roger
00:13:26no miss Hodges
00:13:29what have you two to say for yourselves
00:13:32if anything

00:14:07shocky is too silent
00:14:09he puzzles me
00:14:11stubbornness is not a virtue
00:14:13i didn't mean to imply that it is
00:14:15he must have had some reason for striking roger
00:14:18i'm quite capable of giving you the reason miss evans
00:14:23i should have warned you about this boy
00:14:26he's bad
00:14:30that does not apply to roger
00:14:32we never have trouble with a boy who comes from such a fine family as roger

00:15:21the members will pass on your case
00:15:23to reinstate you or expel you as they see fit
00:15:26is that all
00:15:28i should say so

00:21:39huh
00:21:40come on try to clean up a little bit will you
00:21:41oh
00:21:42oh yes
00:21:43yes
00:21:44yes
00:21:45yes
00:21:46yes
00:21:47yes
00:22:04yes
00:22:06yes
00:22:08yes
00:22:10I guess you can come in, though.
00:22:32It's not often the captain will see anybody after the government sends him his money.
00:22:36He starts to think, and then we figure it's best just to leave him to himself.
00:22:39You told him who I am?
00:22:40Yes, he knows who you are, but I don't think it'll do you any good.
00:22:43Why not?
00:22:44I don't think you'll understand the captain.
00:22:46Most people don't.
00:22:47He's not just an ordinary man, you know.
00:22:49He's a hero.
00:22:51Oh, I didn't know that.
00:22:52Captain Fred Carter, you ain't never heard of him?
00:22:55Have I?
00:22:56Most everybody used to want to meet him.
00:22:58Look.
00:23:00Four of the enemy captured single-handedly, alone under fire.
00:23:03Oh, yes, I remember reading something about that.
00:23:06Are you honest?
00:23:07You'd be surprised how many people have forgotten.
00:23:09I can't understand that.
00:23:11When a soldier does what he did, above and beyond the call of duty, you'd think they'd remember.
00:23:16I'm sure they do, but memories are tricky things, Shockey.
00:23:19Yeah, I guess so.
00:23:20You can't expect much of people.
00:23:22They ought to try to understand him.
00:23:24They can't expect the captain to be like them.
00:23:25No, I know they can't.
00:23:29They had a band for him at the station, too, when he got back from the front.
00:23:32His pictures was in the paper, and a guy offered him a thousand bucks for this collection of helmets.
00:23:37Who told you that?
00:23:38Your mother?
00:23:39No, the captain.
00:23:40He likes to talk about it.
00:23:41I guess she was there.
00:23:47And that's a picture of him, too.
00:23:49And this is his, uh...
00:23:56Do you, uh...
00:24:01Want to see me?
00:24:03Yes, captain.
00:24:04This is her.
00:24:06How do you do?
00:24:08How do you do?
00:24:10If you, uh...
00:24:11Sit down.
00:24:12Here, Cap, I'll...
00:24:21I'll get your code.
00:24:25I don't...
00:24:26What's...
00:24:26What's wrong with...
00:24:27Captain, to catch cold.
00:24:28He's been kind of sick.
00:24:30All right, Cap.
00:24:34She won't ask you many questions, Cap, will you?
00:24:37No, none at all.
00:24:39I just wanted to meet you, Captain Carter.
00:24:40There's no novelty to you, is it?
00:24:43People clamoring to meet you.
00:24:44Well, what's it about, boy?
00:24:46What's he done?
00:24:47Shockey?
00:24:48Well, nothing, really.
00:24:50His only offense is forgivable, I'm sure.
00:24:52Well, that's all right, Miss Evans.
00:24:53You can tell him I was fighting.
00:24:55Fighting?
00:24:56They were probably fighting about you.
00:25:00Me?
00:25:02Well, what...
00:25:03What for?
00:25:05Well, it was nothing, Cap.
00:25:06I just whacked the Townsend kid one time.
00:25:08Shockey.
00:25:08What did the Townsend boys say about your father?
00:25:11Nothing.
00:25:12Nothing at all.
00:25:13What did all the other boys in the school say about your father?
00:25:22Oh.
00:25:24I...
00:25:25I think I understand.
00:25:32Well, you...
00:25:32You didn't tell me about this.
00:25:36I didn't want to bother you, Cap.
00:25:39You have a fine boy, Captain.
00:25:41He's brave and strong and loyal.
00:25:44But he's been fighting a battle.
00:25:46Single-handed.
00:25:49You...
00:25:50You don't think much of me, do you?
00:25:53I like you.
00:25:54But Shockley's Captain Carter.
00:25:56I like him.
00:26:00Say, this place needs good cleaning.
00:26:01Do you mind if I take a boil at it?
00:26:03Oh, I wouldn't clean it up because...
00:26:05Then we can clean it again.
00:26:06Yes.
00:26:08Oh, isn't this terrible?
00:26:09That's been young Matt chasing her already.
00:26:24She was a scheme, son.
00:26:25I think Tim called her up.
00:26:28Was she?
00:26:30Well, well, Miss Evans.
00:26:31You are the late one.
00:26:33We were beginning to worry.
00:26:35Have you met all these ladies?
00:26:37I don't believe so.
00:26:37Ladies, this is our new boarder, Miss Evans.
00:26:40She's a teacher, too.
00:26:42How do you do?
00:26:43How do you do?
00:26:44I'm Millicent Goodlow, French teacher.
00:26:46Parlez-vous Francais?
00:26:48May we.
00:26:49Do look after her, Miss Taylor.
00:26:51Oh, gladly.
00:26:52We met today.
00:26:53Quite by accident.
00:26:54You're replacing Dot Minardi, aren't you?
00:26:56Poor Dot.
00:26:57Having to leave right in the middle of a term like that.
00:27:00Why, poor Dot?
00:27:01You know.
00:27:03The things I've heard since she disappeared so mysteriously.
00:27:06Let me have your plate, dear.
00:27:08I have a slice of delicious meatloaf on the stove for you.
00:27:11That's kind of you.
00:27:13Oh, Miss Evans.
00:27:15A Mr. Matthew rang up here to locate you.
00:27:18That couldn't be young John Matthew, could it?
00:27:22Thank you, Mrs. Geeta.
00:27:24He was at the school today.
00:27:26Whatever could he be doing there?
00:27:28He wants to enroll, I believe.
00:27:29Could I have that meatloaf, Mrs. Geeta?
00:27:33Why, of course.
00:27:35Of course.
00:27:37No matter what people may say about Jack Matthew squandering his dad's money and whatnot,
00:27:43I still maintain he's very good looking.
00:27:46Yes, money and good looks it all a girl wants.
00:27:50He's a catch.
00:27:51Of course, I wouldn't want to marry him.
00:27:52I've had oodles of offers from men with plenty.
00:27:57That's no catch.
00:27:58But I'm saving myself for someone with refinement.
00:28:03I thought that brand died out.
00:28:06Culture may be a thing of the past.
00:28:09But if so, oh well.
00:28:11Full many a flower was born to blush unseen
00:28:14and waste its sweetness on the desert air.
00:28:17Ain't it the truth?
00:28:19I beg your pardon.
00:28:20Poor, frustrated flower.
00:28:22Oh, really?
00:28:23I...
00:28:24Excuse me, but I don't know quite what you mean.
00:28:27I'm sorry, but I feel out of place among such brilliant conversationalists.
00:28:37Come on in.
00:28:38Just thanks a will.
00:28:40Why, Mr. Matthew.
00:28:42I seem to have lost my appetite,
00:28:44but I'm sure you can carry on without me.
00:28:50If it isn't, the pretty little Mary Evans girl.
00:28:52All grown up now.
00:28:58Having dinner with me?
00:29:00Of course, Jack.
00:29:02I thought you'd never get here, dear.
00:29:04Huh?
00:29:04Get my hat and coat, will you, darling?
00:29:07Huh?
00:29:14Good night, Mrs. Geeta.
00:29:15Good night.
00:29:16Good night.
00:29:16Good night.
00:29:20I don't think you'd go out with me.
00:29:29You thought right.
00:29:30Huh?
00:29:30Here's where we part, and thanks for rescuing me.
00:29:33What is this?
00:29:34I wouldn't go out with you if this were the Garden of Allah.
00:29:36Good night.
00:29:37Hey!
00:29:39Hey!
00:29:39Hey!
00:29:39I don't see why you're taking me in front of the school board.
00:29:48It'll just gum up the works.
00:29:49They don't like me.
00:29:50You let me handle this.
00:29:54We have a quorum present.
00:29:56Should we begin?
00:29:59Apparently, Mr. Matthew isn't going to be with us this afternoon.
00:30:02No.
00:30:03Poor old John has his hands full with his strike.
00:30:05That awful strike!
00:30:07I guess it's a crime now to have a little money.
00:30:09If you hear the farmers tell it, you'd think they were giving away milk.
00:30:12I pay ten cents a quart for milk at your store, Mr. Townsend.
00:30:15I know you do.
00:30:16I can't buy it any cheaper than the independents.
00:30:18Well, I think the whole thing's silly.
00:30:19Such a fuss over a few pennies.
00:30:23This meeting does not concern milk.
00:30:27It concerns a student, Shockey Carter.
00:30:29Now, don't you worry, Shockey.
00:30:31When they see the change in your appearance and the fine little gentleman that you are,
00:30:34they won't expel you.
00:30:35Well, the faculty and I have tried to correct these faults in the boy.
00:30:40Our latest reward has been a classroom fight.
00:30:43Yes.
00:30:44Roger told me.
00:30:46I have suspended, Shockey, until this meeting.
00:30:50You, of the school board, must come to some decision regarding his future.
00:30:55The burden is too great for the faculty.
00:30:58I have Mrs. Evans come in.
00:31:08Mrs. Evans, will you come in, please?
00:31:11And Shockey?
00:31:11That won't be necessary.
00:31:14Wait for me.
00:31:17Good morning, Mrs. Evans.
00:31:19Good morning.
00:31:19I had hoped that you would meet our school board under more agreeable conditions.
00:31:25This is our new history teacher.
00:31:28The board, Mrs. Evans.
00:31:30How do you do, Mrs. Evans?
00:31:31Be seated.
00:31:32I believe that we can come to our decision.
00:31:51A motion is in order.
00:31:53I move that we expel Shockey Carter and send him to the State School of Correction.
00:31:59But you can't solve this boy's problems by expelling him.
00:32:02You're out of order, Miss Evans.
00:32:03But you haven't tried to understand, Shockey.
00:32:06Do you mean to imply that we've been in error in analyzing character?
00:32:09I know you have.
00:32:10Well, you've condemned this boy, not judged him.
00:32:12He struck my son and called him a liar.
00:32:14Those are the facts.
00:32:15Are you Roger's father?
00:32:16I am.
00:32:17I don't know you very well, Mr. Townsend.
00:32:20Obviously, you're not a shell-shocked war hero.
00:32:22I'm a temperate man.
00:32:24Regardless, Mr. Townsend.
00:32:25I'm sure you'd uphold Roger if he struck a boy who ridiculed you.
00:32:28Did Mr. Townsend's drinking have anything to do with the boy's fighting in class?
00:32:32There's a motion before the board.
00:32:33Isn't it your job to help these children?
00:32:35Shockey needs help, not another kick.
00:32:37There's no other recourse.
00:32:39Well, kindness and understanding is what this boy needs.
00:32:42Theory has his place, Miss Evans, but not in this case.
00:32:45Why not try it?
00:32:47You're placing quite a responsibility in our laps.
00:32:50Perhaps you'd care to assume it.
00:32:51Yes, I would.
00:32:53Very well, then.
00:32:54I move that we reinstate Sharky Carter.
00:32:58Conditionally, of course.
00:33:00Making Miss Evans solely responsible for his future conduct.
00:33:04I second that motion.
00:33:05All in favor?
00:33:06Aye.
00:33:07The ayes have it.
00:33:17Where, Sharky?
00:33:18Did they expel you?
00:33:19No.
00:33:20Are they going to?
00:33:22Well, I guess it'd suit you all right if they did, wouldn't it?
00:33:24What makes you think that?
00:33:27Well, they're not going to, so you don't need to worry your head about it.
00:33:29Miss Evans is in there talking for me.
00:33:31She likes you.
00:33:33You trying to say that I'm her pet?
00:33:35Well, if you want to put it that way.
00:33:40I'm sorry I stopped to talk to you.
00:33:42I'm almost sorry I ever met you, Sharky.
00:33:45A gentleman would pick up the books and apologize.
00:33:48I'm sorry.
00:33:55Thanks.
00:33:56I bet if you hit a fella as hard as you hit these books, he wouldn't wake up for a long time.
00:34:01Think so?
00:34:02I think you're the strongest boy in the class.
00:34:06Maybe you'd like me to take a whack at some guy for you.
00:34:08Oh, no.
00:34:09But if you were out with a girl, I guess she'd feel safe.
00:34:13It's all right, Sharky.
00:34:17They're not going to expel you.
00:34:19Isn't that fine, Elvira?
00:34:20Yes.
00:34:23Gee, Elvira, do you think maybe some night after school, if I, uh, if I, well, uh, I'll see you later.
00:34:32Of course, at school tomorrow.
00:34:36Yeah, at school.
00:34:41Miss Evans.
00:34:42Miss Evans.
00:34:44Gee, they may have been plenty tough except for you, Miss Evans.
00:34:47Not necessarily, Sharky.
00:34:48Well, I want to thank you anyway.
00:34:50Maybe I can do you a favor sometime.
00:34:51You can.
00:34:52You can take me to the basket social if you'd like.
00:34:54Oh, you're kidding me now.
00:34:56No, I'm not.
00:34:57Would you like to go?
00:34:58Well, sure, but I, uh...
00:34:59Then it's settled.
00:35:01How's your father?
00:35:02Oh, he's fine.
00:35:03Give him my regards and tell him I'll be by sometime tonight to help with the cleaning.
00:35:06Oh, you won't need to do that.
00:35:07You can leave that up to me.
00:35:08But is there anything else you want to talk to me about?
00:35:10I guess not, Sharky.
00:35:12Well, I'll be seeing you.
00:35:14Goodbye.
00:35:14Goodbye.
00:35:14Goodbye.
00:35:27Why, Mr. Matthews, I'm certainly surprised to see you here.
00:35:31You sure she's coming?
00:35:32Who?
00:35:32Miss Evans?
00:35:34How'd you guess it?
00:35:35Oh.
00:35:38Oh, hello, dear.
00:35:40I'll take this.
00:35:41You know Mr. Matthews.
00:35:44Here, dear.
00:35:45Put these for the rest of them.
00:35:47And put it on top.
00:35:49Oh, Mr. Matthews.
00:35:51Gee, I've never been to a dance before.
00:36:03It's well of you to get me in here.
00:36:05I didn't get you in.
00:36:06You belong here as much as the others.
00:36:08What are they going to do with the lunches after the auction tomorrow?
00:36:10Eat them, of course.
00:36:12I ain't got no money.
00:36:13Someone will share a box with us.
00:36:14That's part of the plan.
00:36:22Attention.
00:36:24Attention.
00:36:25Will everybody please step forward, please?
00:36:28I know we're all famished.
00:36:30Now, a lady's name is in each of these lunches.
00:36:34It will be the good fortune of the gentleman who buys it to share the contents with her.
00:36:40The bidding is now open.
00:36:41What do I hear?
00:36:4230 cents.
00:36:4540 cents.
00:36:4775.
00:36:48$1.
00:36:49$1.
00:36:49Sold to Mr. Matthew.
00:36:52Oh, this is a heavy one.
00:36:57This should bring a goodly sound.
00:36:59Now, what do I hear?
00:37:0010 cents.
00:37:03Sold to the gentleman for $1.
00:37:06Ouch.
00:37:06That fixes the price of the lunches.
00:37:11The rest of them will be $1.
00:37:12Now, come on.
00:37:13Don't be backward.
00:37:14What do I hear?
00:37:15All right.
00:37:16Come on.
00:37:16Come on.
00:37:16Come on.
00:37:19Shall I be seated?
00:37:20By all means.
00:37:22Shockey, you know our guest.
00:37:23Yes.
00:37:24Gosh, I'm hungry.
00:37:25Fried chicken?
00:37:26With such delightful company, how can you think of food?
00:37:29Tell him I can.
00:37:30Salami?
00:37:31For me?
00:37:32Yes, you paid for it.
00:37:34This is what I call a swell time.
00:37:36Happy?
00:37:37Ask Miss Evans, is she happy?
00:37:40Not soppy.
00:37:41Tell him he bought my lunch, not my company.
00:37:44Here, wash that down with some lemonade.
00:37:48I bought the lunch to share your delightful company.
00:37:51Oh, wait.
00:37:52Don't run out on me again.
00:37:54Well, what shall we discuss?
00:37:56You.
00:37:58Are you ever serious, Mr. Matthew?
00:37:59I'm serious now.
00:38:01And I'd like to ask you something which is perhaps none of my business.
00:38:04Go ahead.
00:38:05Why don't you persuade your father to end this milk strike?
00:38:08Will it please you?
00:38:09Yes.
00:38:10Then I will.
00:38:11Well, let's talk about us now.
00:38:13More salami?
00:38:19Hello, Sharky.
00:38:21Hello.
00:38:22Why didn't you buy my lunch?
00:38:24What, for a dollar?
00:38:25I can eat all week on a dollar.
00:38:26I didn't sell it.
00:38:27I tested it.
00:38:28You want some?
00:38:30What you got?
00:38:32Three kinds of sandwiches.
00:38:33Can I eat peanut butter?
00:38:34Sure.
00:38:36Here, I'll buy the lemonade.
00:38:37It doesn't cost anything.
00:38:38I know it.
00:38:41What is, Sharky?
00:38:42Gee, you look swell, doesn't he, Vera?
00:38:44Uh-huh.
00:38:45You think so?
00:38:46How'd you get the clothes?
00:38:48Sell a lot of the old man's empty bottles?
00:38:50Keep your temper.
00:38:50More salt?
00:38:51Okay.
00:38:51Where?
00:38:51I'm going to...
00:38:52What?
00:38:52You going to ask me to dance after a while?
00:38:56Are you going to ask me to dance after a while?
00:39:17No.
00:39:18Don't you dance?
00:39:19Not with girls.
00:39:21I bet you can't dance.
00:39:26Come on, boys.
00:39:51Come on, boys.
00:39:52You know shocking is amazing.
00:40:04I'm so sorry I didn't cooperate with you, Miss Evans.
00:40:07But as we grow older, sometimes we get fixed ideas.
00:40:12Oh, you're sweet.
00:40:14How is his father?
00:40:15You'd never recognize him.
00:40:17I'm so glad.
00:40:18You win them all, don't you?
00:40:21There's my boy.
00:40:35That's shocking.
00:40:36Yeah, he's a fine boy.
00:40:38I want to see him have a good time.
00:40:41He's a fine boy, a good boy.
00:40:43You ask Miss Evans, she'll tell you.
00:40:46Come on, let's get out of here.
00:40:47Get out of here, Carter.
00:40:48Oh, no, Mr. Thompson, you and I have got a decent quarreling and thought.
00:40:53Take your hands off.
00:40:54Get out of here.
00:40:55No, you can't get me.
00:40:56Get out of here.
00:40:57Get out of here.
00:40:58Cut it out.
00:40:59Cut it out.
00:41:00No, no, no, no, no, no.
00:41:03You butch fraud jured, Mr. Thompson.
00:41:05Punch me, so everything is going to be all right.
00:41:08Come on.
00:41:09Let's get out of here.
00:41:10I'm going to pay you for those cups.
00:41:11Oh, forget about it.
00:41:12Go on with your dancing.
00:41:29He's OK now, aren't you, Mr. Carter?
00:41:32Oh, no, Joe.
00:41:35That's rude.
00:41:38No shot.
00:41:39Oh, no, you can't.
00:41:40You'll feel better soon as you get some sleep.
00:41:42All right, son.
00:41:46I'm always getting you in the trunk.
00:41:48I don't know what happens.
00:41:50I should have stayed home with you tonight.
00:41:53I don't want to disgrace you.
00:41:58They're all I've got.
00:42:01But sometimes I...
00:42:03I can't stand as you're alone.
00:42:09I see things.
00:42:11Oh, man.
00:42:15They never stop.
00:42:20Did you hear that?
00:42:23I ran it again.
00:42:25It's been going like that for days.
00:42:29That's a machine gun nest.
00:42:31Steady, steady, Carter.
00:42:32Steady, Carter.
00:42:33Steady.
00:42:33You've got to stop thinking about it.
00:42:38Oh, yes.
00:42:41Yes.
00:42:44I'm sorry.
00:42:45I was...
00:42:46But they were all mowed down, you know.
00:42:49Pete, Jim, Fred.
00:42:54Oh, except me.
00:42:55I know it's all over now, Cap.
00:42:58You'll be all right.
00:42:59Yes, yes, yes.
00:43:00You're all gone.
00:43:03You go along now.
00:43:14He gets that way once in a while.
00:43:15I try to watch him, but, gee, I can't be with him all the time.
00:43:18What's your father need, young fellow, as a job?
00:43:20Yeah, but who'll give him one?
00:43:21I will.
00:43:22Or at least I'll see that my father does.
00:43:24Do you mean it?
00:43:25I sure do.
00:43:26Have him report at the dairy to go to work in the morning.
00:43:28Golly, thanks, Mr. Matthew.
00:43:30You're welcome.
00:43:32Good night.
00:43:32Good night, soldier.
00:43:33Good night, Chucky.
00:43:41Hey, Cap.
00:43:42Come on, wake up, wake up.
00:43:43Listen, I got some good news for you.
00:43:45No, I'm all right, Chucky.
00:43:47Guess what?
00:43:48No, I give up.
00:43:49You think you're going to work?
00:43:51Oh, well, we've got to do something about that.
00:43:54No, no, listen to me.
00:43:55You've got a job.
00:43:56Hmm?
00:44:01Who'd give me a job?
00:44:03Hey, Mr. Matthews, dear, you've got to be there in the morning.
00:44:07Yeah, are you serious about this?
00:44:10Now, look, Cap, have I ever lied to you?
00:44:12Oh, no, no, I guess you never did, son.
00:44:15Yeah, that would be something, wouldn't it?
00:44:21A job.
00:44:22You're smart, too.
00:44:23You'd be good at it.
00:44:24Well, I have a little drink.
00:44:25Oh, Cap.
00:44:26Well, can I have a little water?
00:44:30Here comes one.
00:44:49Here comes one.
00:44:59Come on, get out of that truck.
00:45:01All right.
00:45:01We mean business.
00:45:02Come on.
00:45:03Nothing wrong.
00:45:15Hey, what is this?
00:45:18You'd better keep out of this, Jack.
00:45:21Get off this truck, you men.
00:45:23This isn't your milk.
00:45:24Suppose you get off of the truck and we'll hand it down to you.
00:45:27Wait a minute.
00:45:28Why don't you fellas use your heads?
00:45:30My father may not be right, but this is wrong.
00:45:32Go to Dad and present your demand lead.
00:45:34Oh, we've tried talking.
00:45:36John won't listen.
00:45:37Sure he'll listen.
00:45:38When will you see him?
00:45:39Tell him to come to our next meeting at Crowder's barn.
00:45:42I'll have him there.
00:45:43All right, men.
00:45:45That's the spirit.
00:45:48Good.
00:45:55Townsend, I've got a strike on my hands, but it's going to be a golden opportunity.
00:46:01Do?
00:46:02I'm going to cut the price of milk again and force the farmers to a settlement.
00:46:07Right.
00:46:09Starb them out again, huh?
00:46:11They can't feed their cows now and hold their farms.
00:46:13What is it you want, son?
00:46:15There's a mass meeting in Crowder's barn.
00:46:17The farmers want you there.
00:46:18They're not dictating to me.
00:46:20They're willing to talk over this strike.
00:46:22Settle it if they can.
00:46:23That's up to the farmers.
00:46:25I can tuck milk in here and make deliveries without them.
00:46:28Crowder Evans and his men have been loyal to you.
00:46:30You can't refuse to listen.
00:46:32I'm doing it.
00:46:33But, Dad, these men are your friends.
00:46:36You counted on them to build up this business.
00:46:38Yes, but they failed me.
00:46:40You failed them.
00:46:41You'll do anything to keep your profit up.
00:46:43Wreck the farmers, cut off the milk supply, even starve the kids.
00:46:47That's about enough.
00:46:48Every young upstart in this county is trying to tell me how to run my business.
00:46:51But I'm running it my way.
00:46:53You can't lick this strike your way.
00:46:55But it can lick you.
00:46:56Aren't you going to that meeting?
00:46:58No.
00:46:59Then I am.
00:47:00No.
00:47:01No.
00:47:02Where's Matthew?
00:47:03So, Matthew, they ain't going to be here.
00:47:04Well, I'm telling you, neighbors, that we can't tolerate this injustice.
00:47:07Something must be done.
00:47:08Last year, it was the flood and lean harvest.
00:47:10The year before it was a drop and no crop.
00:47:13Now it's the price they pay for milk.
00:47:15Yes, we're having our trouble.
00:47:16No.
00:47:17No.
00:47:18No.
00:47:19No.
00:47:20No.
00:47:21No.
00:47:22No.
00:47:23No.
00:47:24No.
00:47:25No.
00:47:26No.
00:47:27No.
00:47:28No.
00:47:29No.
00:47:30Well, having them, neighbor, won't stop them.
00:47:32Personally, I don't really should fight, but Matthew leaves us no other choice.
00:47:37Why do you know that he's been chucking milk from Craigshead County?
00:47:41Now we've got to stop those trucks.
00:47:43It's going to starve us out.
00:47:45I'm for stopping them.
00:47:46You and me both.
00:47:47And we will show them that a farmer can fight.
00:47:49Neighbor, we can't go on sitting around forever.
00:47:52This is our trouble.
00:47:53We've been too easy-going.
00:47:55It's high time that we took this matter in our own hands.
00:47:59Am I right, George?
00:48:00Now, what we want is action.
00:48:03How are we going to barricade every road and stop every truck?
00:48:07Are you with me?
00:48:09Matt, say a few words.
00:48:11Where's your dad?
00:48:12I thought you said he was going to be here.
00:48:14Well, I lose that bet.
00:48:15You represent Mr. Matthews.
00:48:16No, I'm here on my own today.
00:48:18I think we can settle this strike without any violence.
00:48:20I know what you fellas have at stake.
00:48:22Your land, your home, right to a living.
00:48:25The dairy has failed you.
00:48:26How do we know you mean that?
00:48:28Yes, Matthews is your father, ain't he?
00:48:30Forget that.
00:48:31Your burdens are heavy enough.
00:48:33Don't add bloodshed and destruction to them.
00:48:35We ain't got no choice.
00:48:36Ah, what's left?
00:48:37Talk, get us no place.
00:48:38You must be my father.
00:48:39I'll go with you.
00:48:40We ain't going to take no more.
00:48:42If we fail, if he won't settle, there'll be no more bargaining.
00:48:45We'll barricade every road in this county and I'll help you.
00:48:48That's fair enough.
00:48:54I'll go with you, Rayleigh.
00:49:00That's fair enough.
00:49:07What do you want?
00:49:09Dad, we want to settle this strike peaceably if we can.
00:49:11What's your proposition?
00:49:13We helped you organize this dairy, John.
00:49:15And I've spent a lifetime getting this business on its feet.
00:49:18Every dime I've gots in it.
00:49:20But, Dad, you can't run this dairy indefinitely without these farmers.
00:49:23Have I ever refused to buy your milk?
00:49:25We can't sell you milk for less than it costs us.
00:49:29I've got to run my business on a profit.
00:49:31I've reduced the overhead to a minimum.
00:49:33Why don't you farmers try it?
00:49:34You're paying plenty for that milk you're trucking in from Crayhead County.
00:49:38What of it?
00:49:38Pay our farmers that price and we'll call off this strike.
00:49:41Oh, no.
00:49:42I'm losing money now to fight you men the same as you are to lick me.
00:49:46You'll come to my terms.
00:49:48Is that final, Dad?
00:49:49You know it is.
00:49:50All right, you're asking for it.
00:49:52We'll give you a strike that is a strike.
00:49:54We'll break you.
00:49:55You can try it.
00:49:56And when we're through, we'll organize a real cooperative dairy.
00:49:59One of our own.
00:50:01Provided there's enough business brains among them.
00:50:03Don't send any more trucks through, Dad.
00:50:05We'll stop them.
00:50:07You can try that, too.
00:50:10Come on.
00:50:14Riley, when will that new milk be ready to go?
00:50:17It's 7.30.
00:50:18I think these farmers mean business.
00:50:20How many trucks going out?
00:50:22Three will handle the shipment.
00:50:23See that they're filled.
00:50:25We'll send them out together.
00:50:34Hey, mouth here is a fighter.
00:50:37I like fighters.
00:50:39So do I, if they don't lose their head.
00:50:41You'll have to come back tonight and help load.
00:50:43I'll be glad to.
00:50:43Cap!
00:50:44Cap!
00:50:45Cap!
00:50:46Hey, Cap!
00:50:47Cap!
00:50:48Cap!
00:50:49Hey, Cap!
00:50:50Cap!
00:50:51Cap!
00:50:52Cap!
00:50:53Cap!
00:50:54I know what you were thinking.
00:50:55I was not.
00:50:56I fooled you, didn't I?
00:50:57I fooled you, didn't I?
00:50:58Yeah, how do you like it?
00:50:59I should swell, Cap.
00:51:00Coat and pants just match.
00:51:01Thanks.
00:51:02About to strike you.
00:51:03Yeah, it's first rate.
00:51:04Something sticking.
00:51:05Well, why don't you take the tag out?
00:51:07Well, get your coat and hat on.
00:51:08Miss Evans is going to treat us to a picture show tonight.
00:51:09Oh, I can't go.
00:51:10I'm working tonight.
00:51:11It won't be any fun without you.
00:51:12What did I put on my new suit for?
00:51:13To make some extra dough.
00:51:15Don't you worry you and I are going to have a lot of fun from now on.
00:51:16You can't.
00:51:18I, I, I, I can't go.
00:51:19Well, I don't look it like this.
00:51:20To the lesson.
00:51:21Don't work too hard.
00:51:22Here, here, here.
00:51:25Here, OK.
00:51:26Don't work too hard.
00:51:27Here, here.
00:51:29Wait a minute.
00:51:30Don't you worry, you and I are going to have a lot of fun from now on.
00:51:34I like it like this.
00:51:37So do I, son.
00:51:39Well, don't work too hard.
00:51:41Here, here, wait a minute, wait a minute.
00:51:44She's treating me.
00:51:45Well, you can buy some ice cream.
00:51:47Thanks.
00:51:49Oh, I wouldn't explain to her.
00:51:51Yes. Well, so long.
00:51:53So long, boy.
00:52:00Well, that'll do it, fellas.
00:52:06That'll stop them.
00:52:08Sure heavy enough.
00:52:12Hey, come on, get a move on.
00:52:13What are you standing around here, Riley?
00:52:15Where are you standing around?
00:52:16To Chicago.
00:52:17Only he'll make the station at Wilford.
00:52:19If I can.
00:52:20Oh, you can.
00:52:21Hey!
00:52:22Well, this is milk, that butter.
00:52:25Oh, I'm sorry, sir.
00:52:26And what's the stacking of them cans, too?
00:52:28Yes, sir.
00:52:29Oh, Captain.
00:52:31Hey, what are you doing here?
00:52:36How about the picture show?
00:52:37Well, Miss Evans said we could be her guest some other night.
00:52:39Oh, that's fine.
00:52:41Hey, you, you shouldn't wear that around here.
00:52:43You get it all dirty.
00:52:52Hey, Larson, what's the idea?
00:52:53You're on your way to Aniston with that load.
00:52:55I'm not going through till the highways are clear.
00:52:57Oh, I'm afraid to go through the picket line, huh?
00:52:59Yeah, if you want to put it that way.
00:53:03Hey!
00:53:09Mike, you go on out Highway 36.
00:53:10They won't bother you none there.
00:53:11Come on, get going.
00:53:12Yeah, but I don't want any trouble either.
00:53:15Oh.
00:53:16Oh.
00:53:17So the daisy bed is spreading, eh?
00:53:21Well, one of these trucks is going through.
00:53:23Why don't you ice some milk?
00:53:24It'll keep overnight.
00:53:25Ah, all of you guys yeller.
00:53:27Ain't they one of you good enough enough to fight?
00:53:29Your trucks are big enough and they're fast enough.
00:53:32If you're a driver, you'll put them through that line.
00:53:35Yeah, and over the top.
00:53:39Mr. Riley, I've been over the top.
00:53:40The captain's not afraid of anything.
00:53:42Did you ever drive a truck?
00:53:44Oh, yes, sir.
00:53:45In the war, I did.
00:53:46Sure, he's a good driver, too.
00:53:47Yeah, I'll take it over the line.
00:53:50All right.
00:53:51Peg Larson's truck.
00:53:52Yes, sir, I'll get my coat.
00:53:55This is a cinch for the captain.
00:53:57Yeah.
00:53:58It's a cinch for anybody.
00:54:00Just a little nerve.
00:54:09Don't send any trucks out, Riley.
00:54:11Well, I'm sorry, Jack.
00:54:12Your father's still the boss.
00:54:14And you're not working here anymore.
00:54:16Mr. Matthews, the captain was just made a driver.
00:54:18That'll mean a raise for him if you don't make a fuss.
00:54:21Are you sending Carter out on one of those trucks?
00:54:23And why not?
00:54:24We've sent trucks through that farmer's picket line before.
00:54:30You can't send trucks out tonight.
00:54:34Listen, you can run the farmer's fight, but you can't run mine.
00:54:37Riley's got caught on a truck.
00:54:38You can't do that.
00:54:39Riley handles the hiring of the drivers.
00:54:40That's all right, mister.
00:54:41Here's the captain.
00:54:42Do you want to see your father killed?
00:54:43That shell-shocked veteran won't stop at the barricade.
00:54:46Oh, all right.
00:54:47I'll phone Riley and have him stop him.
00:54:51Hey, Jack!
00:54:53Get in your car and overtake him.
00:54:57Hey, Jack!
00:54:58Come back!
00:55:18Hey! Come back!
00:55:19Come back!
00:55:20Come back!
00:55:21Come back!
00:55:28Come back!
00:55:47Captain!
00:55:58Here comes the truck now.
00:55:59He's coming pretty fast too.
00:56:00Hey!
00:56:01Come back!
00:56:02Hey!
00:56:03Come back!
00:56:05Come back!
00:56:19Come back!
00:56:21Come back!
00:56:22Come back!
00:56:23Come back!
00:56:24Don't go, Captain!
00:56:27Look out, fellas!
00:56:57He's dead, Mr. Matthews.
00:57:27Gap!
00:57:29Gap!
00:57:30No, Shark.
00:57:31Let me go!
00:57:32Gap!
00:57:57Hello, Sharky.
00:58:04Hello.
00:58:05Packing?
00:58:12Yeah.
00:58:13Leaving?
00:58:14Yep.
00:58:15Leaving?
00:58:16Yep.
00:58:17Where?
00:58:18Oh, just leaving.
00:58:22Sharky?
00:58:23I've got a great big room over to my house.
00:58:27Just the kind of room you'd like.
00:58:29There's a big bookcase with glass doors where...
00:58:34I've got a great big room over to my house.
00:58:36Just the kind of room you'd like.
00:58:38There's a big bookcase with glass doors where you can keep all of your dad's things.
00:58:45Sharky?
00:58:46I've got a great big room over to my house.
00:58:49Just the kind of room you'd like.
00:58:51There's a big bookcase with glass doors where you can keep all of your dad's things.
00:58:55Sharky?
00:58:56I want you to come and live with me.
00:59:08No thanks, Mr. Matthew.
00:59:11I guess the town will be glad to get rid of me.
00:59:18Glad to get rid of the cat, too.
00:59:21Not now, Sharky.
00:59:24The town is proud of your father.
00:59:27You see...
00:59:29He settled straight.
00:59:32You mean...
00:59:35He did die here?
00:59:45Come on, son.
00:59:47We'll...
00:59:48We'll get these things later.
00:59:50Thank you, there it is.
00:59:53A shower.
00:59:54There's no room.
00:59:56This room segments are spaced away.
01:00:15And what...
