Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:01:06,483 --> 00:01:09,475
It's the most excitingand the most dangerous sport in the world.
2
00:01:09,652 --> 00:01:10,880
They're at it everywhere.
3
00:01:11,054 --> 00:01:14,182
On paved tracks, dirt tracks and dry lakes,from Florida to Frisco.
4
00:01:14,357 --> 00:01:15,551
And they'll race anything.
5
00:01:15,725 --> 00:01:18,717
Stock cars, hot rods, jazzed-up jalopies,super-tuned specials...
6
00:01:18,895 --> 00:01:20,522
...but not everybodycan drive them.
7
00:01:20,697 --> 00:01:23,131
High speed takes cold nervesand split-second timing.
8
00:01:23,299 --> 00:01:26,791
It takes luck and the tops in skill,because one slide in the wrong place...
9
00:01:26,970 --> 00:01:29,939
...can turn a $ 20,000 racing carinto a heap of flaming junk.
10
00:01:30,106 --> 00:01:33,701
Death is never far away when a manhas his foot stomped down on that throttle.
11
00:01:33,877 --> 00:01:36,209
He can blow a tire, throw a wheel,crash a wall...
12
00:01:36,379 --> 00:01:41,715
...or spin and tangle with another car,and then flip over and over and over.
13
00:01:41,885 --> 00:01:45,321
There's a thrill every minute.Those lead-foot boys always put on a show.
14
00:01:45,488 --> 00:01:48,946
When you get a track full of high-poweredcars, this can happen anytime.
15
00:01:49,125 --> 00:01:51,685
It's a game with flying startsand sensational finishes.
16
00:01:51,861 --> 00:01:53,988
It looks dangerous and it is dangerous.
17
00:01:54,164 --> 00:01:56,689
But the purses make upfor the risks the drivers take.
18
00:01:56,866 --> 00:02:00,427
Twenty-six thousand at Milwaukee,17,000 at Langhorne, 22,000 at Atlanta.
19
00:02:00,603 --> 00:02:04,403
The biggest money of all is at Indianapolis,that fast and furious 500-miler.
20
00:02:04,574 --> 00:02:07,065
This gigantic spectacle of speedpays off $ 200,000.
21
00:02:07,243 --> 00:02:10,804
The winner gets his face weldedin bas-relief on the Borg-Warner Trophy.
22
00:02:10,980 --> 00:02:12,345
Here's Johnnie Parsons...
23
00:02:12,515 --> 00:02:15,814
...two-time winner Tommy Milton,three-time winner Louis Meyer.
24
00:02:15,985 --> 00:02:19,853
Another three-time winner, Wilbur Shaw,and another, Mauri Rose.
25
00:02:20,023 --> 00:02:23,424
Nowadays, most Indianapolis contendersalso drive those mighty midgets.
26
00:02:23,593 --> 00:02:27,654
They're capable of 150 miles an hour.They draw 30 million fans.
27
00:02:27,831 --> 00:02:30,459
Here's the most successfulof this season's drivers...
28
00:02:30,633 --> 00:02:32,965
...Mike Brannan, Number 17,winning again.
29
00:02:33,136 --> 00:02:36,537
He's copped top money four timesout of five and the crowds hate him.
30
00:02:36,706 --> 00:02:39,675
They've made a villain out of him.They don't like his driving.
31
00:02:39,843 --> 00:02:43,711
They come to see him spin out, blow up,but he's got everything under control.
32
00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:46,280
If he lives that long,he'll be one of the greats--
33
00:02:46,449 --> 00:02:48,815
-There's your man.
-You all remember Mike Brannan.
34
00:02:48,985 --> 00:02:52,079
One of the few Marinesto get the Congressional Medal while alive.
35
00:02:52,255 --> 00:02:54,280
But he never got a good-conduct medal.
36
00:02:54,457 --> 00:02:58,359
You can see Mike and other leadfootsjockeying their Thunderbugs on the IMRA.
37
00:02:58,528 --> 00:03:01,019
Don't miss them.Four nights a week at four stadiums:
38
00:03:01,197 --> 00:03:04,394
Rockaway, Trenton, Newark, Bridgeport.It's a sellout every show.
39
00:03:04,567 --> 00:03:07,661
And you can see them every Thursday nightat Newark Speedway.
40
00:03:07,837 --> 00:03:11,102
-Is that all there is of him?
-No, the studio interview follows this.
41
00:03:11,274 --> 00:03:15,574
Back in the studios once again. I have withme none other than Mike Brannan in person.
42
00:03:15,745 --> 00:03:17,508
You're a bad character, they tell me.
43
00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:20,649
How do you manage to win so muchwith everybody gunning for you?
44
00:03:20,817 --> 00:03:23,650
-I'm lucky, I guess.-You use your head too, don't you?
45
00:03:23,820 --> 00:03:26,152
Well, I study the track,if that's what you mean.
46
00:03:26,322 --> 00:03:28,017
I know what you can and can't do.
47
00:03:28,191 --> 00:03:31,160
Well, with you on the loose,I'll take the subway.
48
00:03:31,327 --> 00:03:33,659
You going to win the main eventat Newark tonight?
49
00:03:33,830 --> 00:03:36,162
Somebody's gotta win.I'll be in there trying.
50
00:03:36,332 --> 00:03:39,859
Now, tell me, Mike,what was your biggest thrill?
51
00:03:40,536 --> 00:03:43,972
Well, it's a long story.You see, I met this blond on 34th Street--
52
00:03:44,140 --> 00:03:47,234
Okay, Mike, glad to have you.Come back anytime.
53
00:03:47,410 --> 00:03:49,173
-There are you, Mike Brannan.
-Cut it.
54
00:03:49,345 --> 00:03:52,906
See him and the restof the win-or-bust boys tonight at Newark.
55
00:03:54,751 --> 00:03:58,118
-Well, what do you think of him?
-Give me his background.
56
00:03:58,621 --> 00:04:01,419
Wild Indian as a kid. Widowed father.
Eastern state college.
57
00:04:01,591 --> 00:04:03,684
No interest in anything but cars.
A lone wolf.
58
00:04:03,860 --> 00:04:06,385
I'll bet women don't leave him alone
with all that sex.
59
00:04:06,562 --> 00:04:09,725
I could feel it
coming right off that screen.
60
00:04:10,333 --> 00:04:13,166
Drove at Indianapolis before the war.
Never in the money.
61
00:04:13,336 --> 00:04:15,998
The war taught him a lot.
Tank driver in the Marine Corps.
62
00:04:16,172 --> 00:04:19,005
Five stars on his Pacific Ribbon.
Navy Commendation.
63
00:04:19,175 --> 00:04:22,042
He was full of medals.
Nationwide hero, now he's a villain.
64
00:04:22,211 --> 00:04:24,839
-Makes him interesting.
-He's a natural for your feature.
65
00:04:25,014 --> 00:04:28,415
That sells papers, but it doesn't
make friends crucifying ex-celebrities.
66
00:04:28,584 --> 00:04:31,815
With 40 million readers,
I've got a million-dollar business.
67
00:04:31,988 --> 00:04:35,480
I'm not gonna crucify this guy.
It'll be a personality sketch, that's all.
68
00:04:35,658 --> 00:04:37,785
We'll go over to the stadium
and catch his act.
69
00:04:37,961 --> 00:04:40,691
But you've got the reception
for that U.N. delegation.
70
00:04:40,863 --> 00:04:44,697
-You should be leaving right now.
-I'll jam that in ahead.
71
00:04:46,169 --> 00:04:49,070
This one's all right. Black on yellow.
You can see that a mile.
72
00:04:49,238 --> 00:04:52,002
Let them know at Newark
I'll be out there.
73
00:04:52,175 --> 00:04:55,975
Yes? Janie has Senator Brett on the wire
calling from Florida.
74
00:04:56,145 --> 00:04:58,739
-I guess he didn't like yesterday's column.
-Not here.
75
00:04:58,915 --> 00:05:00,439
Give him the brush, Janie.
76
00:05:00,616 --> 00:05:03,449
Florida, did she say?
What's he doing in Florida, anyway?
77
00:05:03,619 --> 00:05:07,077
Make a note about the boys playing hooky
while the Senate's in session.
78
00:05:07,256 --> 00:05:09,781
But Senator Brett,
I haven't seen Miss Forbes all day.
79
00:05:09,959 --> 00:05:12,154
-Would you like to talk to her manager?
-Oh, no.
80
00:05:12,328 --> 00:05:15,263
I'll see she gets your message
as soon as she comes in.
81
00:05:15,431 --> 00:05:19,458
I'll go and change. I won't have time. Pick
me up at the reception, we'll go to Newark.
82
00:05:19,635 --> 00:05:21,227
-You can't go to Newark.
-Why not?
83
00:05:21,404 --> 00:05:22,962
-What about Margaret?
-Margaret?
84
00:05:23,139 --> 00:05:24,436
You know, the one who sings.
85
00:05:24,607 --> 00:05:27,508
Well, tell her I'm sorry to miss her recital.
And send flowers.
86
00:05:27,677 --> 00:05:30,043
-Are you going to eat?
-Something at the reception.
87
00:05:30,213 --> 00:05:32,773
-They'll only have champagne.
-I'll fill up on hot dogs.
88
00:05:40,590 --> 00:05:42,956
-Main event's gonna be terrific.
-Glad you're here.
89
00:05:43,126 --> 00:05:44,684
Brannan's gonna have competition.
90
00:05:44,861 --> 00:05:48,319
-Boys are all out to take him.
-That's him warming up now, Number 17.
91
00:05:54,437 --> 00:05:55,802
-He's hard to beat.
-Right.
92
00:05:55,972 --> 00:05:59,305
-He's mean and he never lets up.
-I've gotta watch him all the time.
93
00:05:59,475 --> 00:06:01,909
Do you want to talk to him now
or after the race?
94
00:06:07,216 --> 00:06:09,241
That'll cost you 10 bucks, Brannan.
95
00:06:09,419 --> 00:06:12,217
-Are you all right?
-Yeah, I'm all right.
96
00:06:16,592 --> 00:06:18,719
I'll talk to him now.
97
00:06:24,867 --> 00:06:27,199
-What went on out there?
-Sock you 10 smackers.
98
00:06:27,370 --> 00:06:31,306
-Were you trying to get a look at that dame?
-What dame? I was finding something out.
99
00:06:31,474 --> 00:06:33,669
The track's heavier.
We gotta go lower in gears.
100
00:06:33,843 --> 00:06:35,708
-Five-eighty?
-That'll do it.
101
00:06:35,878 --> 00:06:38,870
-Take a look at that chassis.
-Nice-looking gal.
102
00:06:39,048 --> 00:06:40,982
Hey, some dish.
103
00:06:41,150 --> 00:06:43,983
-Looking for me, lady?
-Check these wheels.
104
00:06:44,153 --> 00:06:46,621
Mike. Mike.
105
00:06:46,789 --> 00:06:50,122
Somebody wants to talk to you.
This is the lady I told you was coming.
106
00:06:50,293 --> 00:06:51,658
Mike Brannan, Regina Forbes.
107
00:06:51,828 --> 00:06:53,352
-How do you do?
-How do you do?
108
00:06:53,529 --> 00:06:56,396
What were you trying to do out there
just now, mow us down?
109
00:06:56,566 --> 00:06:58,534
Well, I'm sorry. I didn't see you.
110
00:06:58,701 --> 00:07:01,363
I'll be around when you're through,
Miss Forbes.
111
00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:08,132
Well, what can we do for you
that hasn't already been done?
112
00:07:08,311 --> 00:07:11,007
You can give your eyes a rest
and answer a few questions.
113
00:07:11,180 --> 00:07:13,944
-I thought I'd do a feature on you.
-What's in it for me?
114
00:07:14,117 --> 00:07:16,745
Nationwide publicity.
It's better than money in the bank.
115
00:07:16,919 --> 00:07:19,717
Maybe it is to you.
Anything else to offer?
116
00:07:19,889 --> 00:07:22,551
I suppose you have to be tough
to do this sort of thing.
117
00:07:22,725 --> 00:07:24,192
You do if you want to win races.
118
00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:27,261
You mean, somebody's got to lose,
but it isn't going to be you.
119
00:07:27,430 --> 00:07:29,990
-That's how you used to fight your tank.
-That's how.
120
00:07:30,166 --> 00:07:34,262
-Isn't that how you got where you are?
-Mike, you wanna take a look at this?
121
00:07:35,638 --> 00:07:37,105
But where does all this get you?
122
00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:40,734
Indianapolis again. Big car.
Okay, button it up.
123
00:07:40,910 --> 00:07:42,775
After Indianapolis, then what?
124
00:07:46,249 --> 00:07:47,739
Answer that yourself.
125
00:07:47,917 --> 00:07:51,717
After you've put that column of yours
in every paper it'll go in, then what?
126
00:07:53,122 --> 00:07:55,818
Well, we're talking about you.
127
00:07:55,992 --> 00:07:59,621
For instance, what will you do
after the races tonight?
128
00:07:59,795 --> 00:08:01,820
-What do you suggest?
-Watch it, lady.
129
00:08:01,998 --> 00:08:04,489
Well, you know what I mean.
This is a tense business.
130
00:08:04,667 --> 00:08:06,692
Dangerous.
How do you get your mind off it?
131
00:08:06,869 --> 00:08:09,360
-You've had quite a few crackups.
-Everybody has them.
132
00:08:09,539 --> 00:08:12,838
But you've had more than your share.
What about the one at Trenton?
133
00:08:13,009 --> 00:08:13,998
We'll skip that.
134
00:08:14,177 --> 00:08:16,873
Why skip it? Is that something
you don't wanna talk about?
135
00:08:17,046 --> 00:08:19,105
Isn't that when the crowd
started hating you?
136
00:08:19,282 --> 00:08:21,682
-What do they know?
-I don't know, I'm asking you.
137
00:08:21,851 --> 00:08:24,547
All right, Number 17.
On the track for the main event.
138
00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:27,280
-Let's get rolling.
-What happened at Trenton?
139
00:08:27,456 --> 00:08:30,789
-I can't talk now. My race is coming up.
-Let's see what you can do.
140
00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:34,919
-I'll come back afterwards.
-Suit yourself. I won't be here.
141
00:08:40,636 --> 00:08:44,299
And in the same row,
on the outside in Car Number 15...
142
00:08:44,507 --> 00:08:51,003
...that good-looking, fast-moving boy
from Rockaway, Red Jones.
143
00:08:51,414 --> 00:08:53,678
On the pole, in the fifth rowin Car Number 6...
144
00:08:53,849 --> 00:08:58,218
...that daredevil from Virginia,Crackerjack Wally Beeler.
145
00:08:58,621 --> 00:09:00,612
Also in the fifth rowin Car Number 1...
146
00:09:00,790 --> 00:09:04,658
...your all-time favorite,champion Joe Youghal.
147
00:09:07,730 --> 00:09:12,463
In the last row, on the pole in Number 4,Dinky Devereaux.
148
00:09:12,635 --> 00:09:14,660
-How did it go?
-Brannan's quite a guy.
149
00:09:14,837 --> 00:09:16,964
-Are you through with him?
-No, not yet.
150
00:09:17,873 --> 00:09:20,433
And in Car Number 17...
151
00:09:23,312 --> 00:09:25,803
...Mike Brannan.
152
00:09:25,982 --> 00:09:28,348
Yeah, Brannan, why don't you give up?
153
00:09:28,517 --> 00:09:31,008
-Get that heap out of there.
-Drop dead, Brannan.
154
00:09:31,187 --> 00:09:34,213
You ain't got a prayer tonight,
brother.
155
00:09:35,358 --> 00:09:38,589
There they are, getting them going,the 12 finest drivers in the east.
156
00:09:38,761 --> 00:09:41,127
This is your main event.It's gonna be a hot one.
157
00:09:41,297 --> 00:09:44,926
The track's fast, the cars are fasterand everybody's all wound up.
158
00:09:45,101 --> 00:09:48,161
They're coming for a rolling start now.
Fastest cars in the back.
159
00:09:48,337 --> 00:09:49,998
-Why is that?
-Makes a tougher race.
160
00:09:50,172 --> 00:09:52,732
Those boys in the back rows
have to drive plenty to win.
161
00:09:52,908 --> 00:09:56,002
They're keeping nice formationas they come out of the turn...
162
00:09:56,178 --> 00:09:57,805
...approaching the starting line.
163
00:09:57,980 --> 00:10:01,882
Keep your eyes on the green flag.This may be a start. It is. There they go.
164
00:10:02,051 --> 00:10:04,281
They're off.In the first turn, it's Number 15.
165
00:10:04,453 --> 00:10:06,944
That's Charlie Clint,he's out in front by a whisker.
166
00:10:07,123 --> 00:10:11,082
There's Number 17 skinning the fence.Mike Brannan wide with his foot hard down.
167
00:10:11,260 --> 00:10:13,490
He's gunning for Sam Kaderian,Number 38.
168
00:10:13,663 --> 00:10:17,463
Brannan's moving up fast on the outsideto get him as they come out of the turn.
169
00:10:17,633 --> 00:10:19,032
It's a duel down the stretch.
170
00:10:19,201 --> 00:10:21,692
These boys are burning rubber,giving it everything.
171
00:10:21,871 --> 00:10:25,204
Sam's a fighting fool in a brush like thisbut Brannan's going ahead.
172
00:10:25,374 --> 00:10:28,343
He can take them one-for-oneor in bunches. There he goes.
173
00:10:28,511 --> 00:10:31,105
It's gonna take something to holdthat Brannan tonight.
174
00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:33,407
Look out, he's in trouble.Look at that slide.
175
00:10:33,582 --> 00:10:35,413
He's out of it.He's a driver, Brannan.
176
00:10:35,584 --> 00:10:38,382
There he goes, right back into the action,making time again.
177
00:10:38,554 --> 00:10:40,351
Charlie Clint hanging on to the lead.
178
00:10:40,523 --> 00:10:44,459
On his tail is Red Jones, Number 54,and Wick Warren, beating him for second.
179
00:10:44,627 --> 00:10:48,119
Joe Youghal's coming up through trafficin Number 1, and 17's after him.
180
00:10:48,297 --> 00:10:49,662
Everybody's bearing down now.
181
00:10:49,832 --> 00:10:52,995
Watch Brannan moving up.He's gunning for Johnny Kenna, Number 15.
182
00:10:53,169 --> 00:10:56,138
Johnny's not gonna make it easy.Got his foot on that throttle.
183
00:10:56,305 --> 00:10:58,933
They're both open into the turn,broadsiding like mad--
184
00:10:59,108 --> 00:11:03,101
Wait a minute. Kenna's spinning.He can't hold that car. He's lost her.
185
00:11:03,279 --> 00:11:05,839
He's spinning in the infield,but he's under control.
186
00:11:06,015 --> 00:11:08,279
-What happened?
-They don't like what Brannan did.
187
00:11:08,451 --> 00:11:11,386
-Chopped Johnny Kenna off. Spun him out.
-He's going right back.
188
00:11:11,554 --> 00:11:12,919
Charlie Clint still in front.
189
00:11:13,089 --> 00:11:16,217
There's Youghal blasting his way up therewith Brannan chasing him.
190
00:11:16,392 --> 00:11:19,327
You can't miss those white cars.They're standouts on any track.
191
00:11:19,495 --> 00:11:23,488
Brannan and Youghal jockeying for position,looking for a hole, trying to get through.
192
00:11:23,666 --> 00:11:26,760
Youghal found one. He's moving up on 54,challenging Red Jones.
193
00:11:26,936 --> 00:11:29,734
He's gonna take him.Jonesy can't hold him and there he goes.
194
00:11:29,905 --> 00:11:32,135
Youghal's moving fast,Brannan's tagging along.
195
00:11:32,308 --> 00:11:35,800
Where Youghal goes, he goes too,only Jonesy's not gonna let him by.
196
00:11:35,978 --> 00:11:39,345
He's pouring it on. Boy, oh, boy,what a dogfight. They're all in a heap.
197
00:11:39,515 --> 00:11:42,507
Youghal, Jonesy, Mike Brannanand Dinky Devereaux on the outside.
198
00:11:42,685 --> 00:11:46,348
Brannan's loose. He's gone from 12thto fifth and challenging for fourth.
199
00:11:46,522 --> 00:11:49,457
That guy's in a hurry.He must have a hot date after the race.
200
00:11:49,625 --> 00:11:52,753
Charlie Clint still leadingand there's Youghal pouring on the coal.
201
00:11:52,928 --> 00:11:55,590
He's trying to get away,but Brannan's closing the gap.
202
00:11:55,765 --> 00:11:57,960
They're both getting up,Youghal into second.
203
00:11:58,134 --> 00:12:00,329
Brannan's into thirdwith everybody after him.
204
00:12:00,503 --> 00:12:02,198
The race is hot and getting hotter.
205
00:12:02,371 --> 00:12:04,430
Brannan's in a slide.Hold it. He held it.
206
00:12:04,607 --> 00:12:08,043
Good thing he did with that free-for-all.They're lapping slower cars.
207
00:12:08,210 --> 00:12:12,044
Brannan's with Youghal, startingan argument for second. They'll take Clint.
208
00:12:12,214 --> 00:12:15,672
Youghal on the outside and Brannan'smoving up between him and Clint in 22.
209
00:12:15,851 --> 00:12:18,649
That rip-roaring son-of-a-gunfrom Arizona's led all the way.
210
00:12:18,821 --> 00:12:22,052
Look at him give it the gun,riding that white line, holding them off.
211
00:12:22,224 --> 00:12:24,317
All three in a rowand nobody giving an inch.
212
00:12:24,493 --> 00:12:26,324
Clint can't stay up there.It's too hot.
213
00:12:26,495 --> 00:12:29,328
Youghal and Brannan are moving ahead,the two side to side.
214
00:12:29,498 --> 00:12:33,628
Brannan's into the lead by half a wheel.Now they're starting to lap slower cars.
215
00:12:33,803 --> 00:12:36,135
Youghal is leading,Mike Brannan is right with him.
216
00:12:36,305 --> 00:12:40,401
In third, Charlie Clint. He's gonna stay thereand cop show money if he can't do better.
217
00:12:40,576 --> 00:12:42,942
On their tails,Red Jones and Dinky Devereaux...
218
00:12:43,112 --> 00:12:45,080
...are leading the pack, going like crazy.
219
00:12:45,247 --> 00:12:47,511
Anything can happen in this race.Anybody can win.
220
00:12:47,683 --> 00:12:50,208
Joe Youghal's jumping in the leadout of that turn.
221
00:12:50,386 --> 00:12:53,651
Everybody's yelling for their favorite driver:Joe Youghal, Number 1.
222
00:12:53,823 --> 00:12:56,291
Here comes Brannan.Youghal can't get away from him.
223
00:12:56,459 --> 00:12:58,586
And there's Charlie Clint.He ain't licked yet.
224
00:12:58,761 --> 00:13:01,889
He's still staying with them.Brannan is trying to take Youghal.
225
00:13:02,064 --> 00:13:05,124
They're working like mad,fighting those cars in the turn.
226
00:13:05,301 --> 00:13:08,759
They're battling for the lead.Brannan, trying to get away but he can't.
227
00:13:08,938 --> 00:13:12,738
Don't let him go, Joe. Hold him, Joe.
Hold him, Joe!
228
00:13:13,008 --> 00:13:14,532
Joe in Number 1
knows every trick.
229
00:13:14,710 --> 00:13:18,168
Every time Brannan tries to grab an inch,it's Youghal that shuts the gate.
230
00:13:18,347 --> 00:13:20,781
They're tying each other into knotsthrough the turn.
231
00:13:20,950 --> 00:13:23,612
Look like they're tied together.This is one for the book.
232
00:13:23,786 --> 00:13:26,084
I don't knowwhere they get all the power.
233
00:13:26,255 --> 00:13:28,519
-Don't let him, Joe.
-It's still anybody's race.
234
00:13:28,691 --> 00:13:31,023
These boys are hitting the fastest pacewe've seen.
235
00:13:31,193 --> 00:13:33,821
Gonna make it tough to stay in,but Clint's still trying.
236
00:13:33,996 --> 00:13:36,487
Something's got to give.They can't keep up this pace.
237
00:13:36,665 --> 00:13:40,123
It's beginning to tell. Brannan's pullingahead, Youghal can't hold him.
238
00:13:40,302 --> 00:13:42,566
Youghal ain't giving up.He's a hard guy to beat.
239
00:13:42,738 --> 00:13:45,172
He's making another bid for it.It's now or never.
240
00:13:45,341 --> 00:13:48,139
They're coming into the last lapand Brannan's got the edge.
241
00:13:48,310 --> 00:13:51,302
But it ain't much of an edge.Youghal's riding with him again.
242
00:13:51,480 --> 00:13:53,914
He can make it and Brannan knows it.Race ain't over.
243
00:13:54,083 --> 00:13:56,313
They're lapping Sam Kaderian,the Number 38.
244
00:13:56,485 --> 00:13:59,943
He's in trouble. Look out,he's headed for the wall. He hits it!
245
00:14:00,122 --> 00:14:02,181
He bounces across the track.Lost a wheel.
246
00:14:02,358 --> 00:14:06,795
Only one car can get through. It's Brannan,going straight ahead. Youghal riding right--
247
00:14:08,998 --> 00:14:12,331
Brannan's all right.He got away from a three-car crackup.
248
00:14:12,501 --> 00:14:14,435
Here he is. He's the winner.
249
00:14:19,441 --> 00:14:22,001
That was ruthless.
Will they let him get away with it?
250
00:14:22,177 --> 00:14:24,975
-No rule against it.
-Didn't have to ride a guy into a wreck.
251
00:14:25,147 --> 00:14:27,547
But he was in there to win,
so he just kept going.
252
00:14:27,716 --> 00:14:33,279
Winner of the main event,Number 17, Mike Brannan.
253
00:14:33,455 --> 00:14:38,791
In second place,in Number 22, Charlie Clint.
254
00:14:38,961 --> 00:14:43,295
Third, Dinky Devereaux.
255
00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:49,733
In that three-car crackup,Sam Kaderian and Red Jones are unhurt.
256
00:14:49,905 --> 00:14:52,703
No report yet on Joe Youghal.
257
00:14:53,809 --> 00:14:57,301
Well, I guess that winds it upfor tonight, folks.
258
00:15:03,485 --> 00:15:06,045
They're taking their time
picking Youghal up.
259
00:15:18,533 --> 00:15:21,593
-I'm going over to the pits.
-You gonna make something out of this?
260
00:15:21,769 --> 00:15:23,498
I wanna hear what Brannan has to say.
261
00:15:23,671 --> 00:15:25,935
-It was just another crackup.
-Another crackup?
262
00:15:26,107 --> 00:15:28,371
He killed that man
as surely as if he'd shot him.
263
00:15:28,543 --> 00:15:30,943
Now, wait a minute. Listen.
264
00:15:47,262 --> 00:15:48,957
What went on out there?
265
00:15:49,631 --> 00:15:53,692
Oh, a thing like that happens.
It's happened before and it'll happen again.
266
00:15:53,868 --> 00:15:57,326
Did it happen like that at Trenton?
You killed a man there, didn't you?
267
00:15:57,505 --> 00:15:59,837
-A man got killed.
-How did it happen this time?
268
00:16:00,008 --> 00:16:01,407
Well, you saw it. Why ask me?
269
00:16:01,576 --> 00:16:04,136
They say he didn't have room
between the wreck and wall.
270
00:16:04,312 --> 00:16:05,904
They say. Well, maybe they know.
271
00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:09,538
-I was ahead and I never look back.
-They say you should've given him room.
272
00:16:09,717 --> 00:16:12,845
What do I care what they say?
You've gotta look out for yourself.
273
00:16:13,021 --> 00:16:17,481
If I'd been in Youghal's place, I'd have got
through. He just didn't think fast enough.
274
00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:20,892
It was him or you,
but it wasn't going to be you.
275
00:16:21,062 --> 00:16:23,690
That's the way you operate, isn't it?
276
00:16:25,700 --> 00:16:28,032
Come on, Gregg, let's go.
277
00:16:44,686 --> 00:16:48,986
He killed a man.
He killed a man and while the--
278
00:16:49,791 --> 00:16:53,625
Yes? Never mind the Barrington stuff.
Hold the entire column.
279
00:16:53,795 --> 00:16:57,094
I told you I'm rushing through another
to take its place.
280
00:16:58,566 --> 00:17:02,696
He killed a man.He killed a man and while the--
281
00:17:03,037 --> 00:17:05,437
Corpse lay on the blackened grass,
he said:
282
00:17:05,607 --> 00:17:08,804
"In this business,
you've got to look out for yourself."
283
00:17:08,977 --> 00:17:10,638
And then he lit a cigarette.
284
00:17:10,812 --> 00:17:12,040
"He didn't give a hoot.
285
00:17:12,213 --> 00:17:14,807
He said, 'It's happened before
and it'll happen again.'
286
00:17:14,983 --> 00:17:17,816
He was right.
It did happen before, at Trenton.
287
00:17:17,986 --> 00:17:20,853
He killed a man there
and was suspended for reckless driving."
288
00:17:21,022 --> 00:17:22,853
-You can read the rest.
-I've read it.
289
00:17:23,024 --> 00:17:25,515
Her whole column's about you
and the crackup.
290
00:17:25,693 --> 00:17:28,355
This thing can padlock every track,
close us down.
291
00:17:28,529 --> 00:17:30,326
Why? Because of what she says
about me?
292
00:17:30,498 --> 00:17:33,899
What she says about you don't affect us.
I'm getting at something else.
293
00:17:34,068 --> 00:17:36,901
-We're having too many fatal crackups.
-You were in a couple.
294
00:17:37,071 --> 00:17:40,563
Well, don't blame me. If they don't know
what they're doing out there...
295
00:17:40,742 --> 00:17:42,767
...that's tough,
but this is a tough racket.
296
00:17:42,944 --> 00:17:45,276
I don't care who did what
or who's to blame.
297
00:17:45,446 --> 00:17:48,847
The point is if the paper starts saying
that our tracks are dangerous...
298
00:17:49,017 --> 00:17:50,348
...we're out of business.
299
00:17:50,518 --> 00:17:52,577
Oh, so that's what's worrying you.
300
00:17:52,754 --> 00:17:54,881
And all the squawks
since this column came out.
301
00:17:55,056 --> 00:17:58,253
A million phone calls. I had the line
disconnected to shut them up.
302
00:17:58,426 --> 00:18:00,394
Well, you're working around
to something.
303
00:18:00,561 --> 00:18:03,189
-What have you boys figured out?
-Figures only one way.
304
00:18:03,364 --> 00:18:05,958
We've gotta do something
to head off the papers.
305
00:18:06,134 --> 00:18:07,999
We've gotta get rid of you.
306
00:18:10,505 --> 00:18:12,564
-You mean I'm barred?
-It's our only out.
307
00:18:12,740 --> 00:18:17,040
-But that's as good as admitting she's right.
-I know that. I don't like to do this to you.
308
00:18:17,211 --> 00:18:20,442
Losing you is losing money.
But that's the way it's gotta be.
309
00:18:20,615 --> 00:18:23,311
You can see the spot we're in,
can't you?
310
00:18:24,619 --> 00:18:27,645
Sure. Sure. You're scared.
311
00:18:27,822 --> 00:18:30,484
Backing up a dame
who takes her first look at a race...
312
00:18:30,658 --> 00:18:34,492
...and knows enough to tell you and me
and the rest of the world our business.
313
00:18:34,662 --> 00:18:36,857
She says I ought to be barred,
so I'm barred.
314
00:18:37,031 --> 00:18:39,966
She can print anything she thinks
about me and get away with it.
315
00:18:40,134 --> 00:18:42,125
Nobody could print
what I think about her.
316
00:18:42,303 --> 00:18:45,067
And that goes for you too.
There are plenty of other tracks.
317
00:18:45,239 --> 00:18:47,571
Continental's begging me to race.
I don't need you.
318
00:18:47,742 --> 00:18:51,371
Come on, take it easy.
This whole thing's gonna blow over.
319
00:19:00,088 --> 00:19:02,716
What's that name again? Brannan?
320
00:19:02,890 --> 00:19:04,619
Mike Brannan?
321
00:19:04,792 --> 00:19:07,522
I could've used you.
Been glad to. Not now.
322
00:19:07,695 --> 00:19:12,723
All I need is for you to crack somebody up
in one of my tracks, would I be in trouble.
323
00:19:12,900 --> 00:19:16,802
You're a hot potato, Brannan.
You ain't for me. Sorry.
324
00:19:21,109 --> 00:19:22,906
Come on.
325
00:20:11,526 --> 00:20:14,222
Hold it. You're not starting.
326
00:20:15,129 --> 00:20:16,528
Why not? I qualified my car.
327
00:20:16,697 --> 00:20:21,066
Yes, under a name that's not your own.
It's right here in the paper.
328
00:20:29,544 --> 00:20:32,604
If we'd known your real name,
we'd never let you through the gate.
329
00:20:32,780 --> 00:20:35,681
Driver like you can cause a lot of trouble.
330
00:20:35,850 --> 00:20:39,843
-Where is this newspaper office?
-Do you no good to go down there.
331
00:21:02,410 --> 00:21:04,310
You the editor?
332
00:21:05,079 --> 00:21:06,307
Yes.
333
00:21:06,481 --> 00:21:11,544
-Did Regina Forbes tell you to reprint this?
-Nobody tells me what to print.
334
00:21:11,719 --> 00:21:14,552
One of my reporters thought
he recognized you. We checked up.
335
00:21:14,722 --> 00:21:17,020
You'll always be recognized.
You were a hero once.
336
00:21:17,191 --> 00:21:20,627
That column's followed me all over.
Everybody's read it or heard about it.
337
00:21:20,795 --> 00:21:23,559
When I'm flat on my back,
I get myself one chance to race...
338
00:21:23,731 --> 00:21:26,894
...then you come out with it.
What are you trying to do to me?
339
00:21:27,068 --> 00:21:28,797
I was performing a public service...
340
00:21:28,970 --> 00:21:32,371
...just as Miss Forbes did in
drawing attention to you in the beginning.
341
00:21:32,540 --> 00:21:34,906
My concern is the safety
of our local drivers.
342
00:21:35,076 --> 00:21:38,603
Your concern is just the same as hers,
anything for a sensation.
343
00:21:38,779 --> 00:21:42,340
You picked on me for the same reason
she did. Somebody to put on the griddle.
344
00:21:42,517 --> 00:21:45,645
I've fried long enough, and I'm
not gonna be buffaloed any longer...
345
00:21:45,820 --> 00:21:49,756
...by some inky-fingered dame
running around, hollering murder.
346
00:21:49,924 --> 00:21:52,859
When I meet up with her again,
she'll know about it.
347
00:21:54,028 --> 00:21:58,158
Now, take that pencil down from behind
your ear and put this ad your paper.
348
00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:02,401
For sale. Hot midget racer.
349
00:22:02,770 --> 00:22:06,797
Offie motor. Torsion-bar suspension.
350
00:22:07,375 --> 00:22:10,606
Complete with all spares. Extra wheels.
351
00:22:12,613 --> 00:22:15,639
The talented diva from La Scala
landed in New York yesterday...
352
00:22:15,816 --> 00:22:18,216
...with her new husband, number four.
353
00:22:18,386 --> 00:22:22,083
The first was a baron, the second a duke,
the third a French marquis.
354
00:22:22,256 --> 00:22:26,590
Following this glittering lineup of nobility,
our glamour puss slipped a little.
355
00:22:26,761 --> 00:22:29,662
Husband number four was born
and raised in good old Yonkers.
356
00:22:29,830 --> 00:22:31,422
Congratulations, Mrs. Manny Snitz.
357
00:22:31,599 --> 00:22:34,090
That's the social stuff.
Break there for commercial.
358
00:22:34,268 --> 00:22:37,032
Say, here's a lovely pair. Try those.
359
00:22:37,204 --> 00:22:38,899
Pick up with "Capitol Chit-Chat."
360
00:22:39,073 --> 00:22:43,533
Use that latest item about Senator Brett.
Add this: He's in Hot Springs now.
361
00:22:43,711 --> 00:22:47,169
There's only one man in Washington
who takes more vacations.
362
00:22:51,919 --> 00:22:54,080
-Mr. Barrington is outside.
-Dwight Barrington?
363
00:22:54,255 --> 00:22:56,780
He flew here especially to see you
and is he mad.
364
00:22:56,958 --> 00:22:59,654
I don't wonder, after the way
you've been working him over.
365
00:22:59,827 --> 00:23:02,387
Oh, he'd love to shut me up.
Okay, Janie, bring him in.
366
00:23:02,563 --> 00:23:06,431
-Don't you think I'd better take care of this?
-No, you stand by. I can handle him.
367
00:23:06,601 --> 00:23:08,967
Have your answers ready
and be sure you're right.
368
00:23:09,136 --> 00:23:11,604
Have I missed yet? Okay, Janie.
369
00:23:11,772 --> 00:23:14,206
Here's what you said
about him yesterday:
370
00:23:16,611 --> 00:23:20,445
"More on Barrington. His pension-insurance
scheme cannot and never will pay off.
371
00:23:20,615 --> 00:23:21,912
His bonds are sucker bait.
372
00:23:22,083 --> 00:23:25,416
The capitol he raised has been sunk
in dry oil wells and rainbow dreams.
373
00:23:25,586 --> 00:23:28,350
Nobody has received a dime.
He's out to raise more millions.
374
00:23:28,522 --> 00:23:30,513
Why doesn't the government
look into this?"
375
00:23:30,691 --> 00:23:33,251
Fine, fine.
Now we'll hear what he has to say.
376
00:23:33,427 --> 00:23:36,055
Be sure and take down every word.
377
00:23:37,565 --> 00:23:39,556
How do you do, sir?
378
00:23:41,435 --> 00:23:43,926
-Miss Forbes.
-Mr. Barrington. Something on your mind?
379
00:23:44,105 --> 00:23:45,663
You know what's on my mind.
380
00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:49,173
This campaign of yours against me
in your column and on the air.
381
00:23:49,343 --> 00:23:51,777
I don't know where you get
your misinformation...
382
00:23:51,946 --> 00:23:55,313
...but these damaging statements
have got to stop once and for all.
383
00:23:55,483 --> 00:23:58,577
-Try those with the ribbons.
-What you don't seem to understand...
384
00:23:58,753 --> 00:24:02,746
...is that organizing a nationwide
private-pension structure like this...
385
00:24:02,923 --> 00:24:04,413
...is a big undertaking.
386
00:24:04,592 --> 00:24:08,187
It takes work, planning, time, money.
387
00:24:08,362 --> 00:24:12,128
Your irresponsible gossip
can keep us from raising it.
388
00:24:12,299 --> 00:24:13,561
If you'll leave us alone...
389
00:24:13,734 --> 00:24:16,464
...we can begin making payments
to our pensioners in weeks.
390
00:24:16,637 --> 00:24:19,367
-You promised payments last year.
-I made no such promise.
391
00:24:19,540 --> 00:24:21,974
You did
or others made promises for you.
392
00:24:22,143 --> 00:24:25,840
That's the way you worked it in Wallstab,
isn't it? The Delaware Mudflat deal?
393
00:24:26,013 --> 00:24:28,675
My name was dragged in,
but I was cleared and you know it.
394
00:24:28,849 --> 00:24:32,182
Only you ignore it, just as you ignore
anything that isn't sensational.
395
00:24:32,353 --> 00:24:35,845
-lf there isn't a scandal, you'll create one.
-You think this heel is high?
396
00:24:36,023 --> 00:24:39,515
Prying into things that you don't
understand, making trouble--
397
00:24:39,694 --> 00:24:43,095
I'll keep making trouble
until the government indicts you for fraud.
398
00:24:43,264 --> 00:24:44,390
I have nothing to fear.
399
00:24:44,565 --> 00:24:46,465
Oh, but you have.
You've wasted millions.
400
00:24:46,634 --> 00:24:49,102
Now you're trying to finagle more.
You won't get it.
401
00:24:49,270 --> 00:24:51,238
-And you're going to stop me?
-Yes.
402
00:24:51,405 --> 00:24:55,034
You've gotten away with it for years,
but now the walls are closing in.
403
00:24:55,676 --> 00:24:58,236
It's useless to talk to you.
404
00:24:58,412 --> 00:25:00,676
I thought that if we discussed
this personally...
405
00:25:00,848 --> 00:25:03,681
...I might set you straight.
But I see that that's hopeless.
406
00:25:03,851 --> 00:25:08,720
-But I warn you, if these attacks continue--
-You'll sue me?
407
00:25:08,889 --> 00:25:11,414
You'll see what I'll do.
408
00:25:16,764 --> 00:25:18,925
-That was all bluff.
-He tried to frighten you.
409
00:25:19,100 --> 00:25:22,194
I've got him and he knows it.
Type up those notes. I may use them.
410
00:25:22,369 --> 00:25:23,768
-Anything else?
-New clippings.
411
00:25:23,938 --> 00:25:26,736
Check through them.
I'll try on the rest of these shoes.
412
00:25:26,907 --> 00:25:30,570
Nothing here. I see that you're still
keeping track of that race driver.
413
00:25:30,745 --> 00:25:32,474
I was curious as to what happened.
414
00:25:32,646 --> 00:25:36,173
Last I read, he'd been barred off
some track in Arkansas weeks ago.
415
00:25:36,350 --> 00:25:37,715
He was really on the skids.
416
00:25:37,885 --> 00:25:40,353
-Well, you loved that, didn't you?
-He asked for it.
417
00:25:40,521 --> 00:25:43,115
He was big, tough
and so sure of himself.
418
00:25:43,290 --> 00:25:45,815
It looks as though he's through.
Guess what he's doing.
419
00:25:45,993 --> 00:25:47,984
-Working in a thrill circus.
-Thrill circus?
420
00:25:48,162 --> 00:25:50,995
"And the most daring
of the thrill-drivers is Mike Brannan...
421
00:25:51,165 --> 00:25:53,429
...crack auto-racing driver
and famed ex-Marine."
422
00:25:53,601 --> 00:25:56,434
Here's an ad here too.
"Head-on crash at 60 miles an hour.
423
00:25:56,604 --> 00:25:59,072
Bumper-to-bumper wingovers
at a mile a minute.
424
00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:02,573
Rocket auto in death-defying climax.
Thrill spectacle of the century."
425
00:26:02,743 --> 00:26:04,734
-Where is this, Gregg?
-You're interested?
426
00:26:04,912 --> 00:26:07,574
Don't be stupid.
The thing's worth a line in the column.
427
00:26:07,748 --> 00:26:09,682
Use it: Ex-villain heads thrill circus.
428
00:26:09,850 --> 00:26:12,842
"Forty cents general admission
and a chance at the door prize."
429
00:26:13,020 --> 00:26:14,851
Imagine risking your neck for that.
430
00:26:15,389 --> 00:26:17,550
He's hit bottom, hasn't he?
431
00:26:17,725 --> 00:26:20,057
How about seeing what's on the wire?
432
00:26:20,227 --> 00:26:21,558
Good.
433
00:26:37,812 --> 00:26:41,475
Ninety, 91, 92...
434
00:26:41,649 --> 00:26:44,675
...93, 94...
435
00:26:45,286 --> 00:26:49,017
...95, 96, 97...
436
00:26:49,190 --> 00:26:54,389
...98, 99, 100.
437
00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:10,204
Here they are, ladies and gentlemen,the greatest daredevils the world has seen.
438
00:27:10,377 --> 00:27:14,541
Here they come bumper-to-bumper at a milea minute and they're not tied together.
439
00:27:14,715 --> 00:27:16,080
Each man is on his own.
440
00:27:16,250 --> 00:27:19,981
And now at 60 miles an hour they're doingwhat nobody else would dare do at all.
441
00:27:20,154 --> 00:27:23,419
This is an exhibitionof clockwork timing and supreme skill.
442
00:27:23,591 --> 00:27:27,459
This double-car breakaway over the skis issomething you'll never see anywhere else.
443
00:27:27,628 --> 00:27:30,028
They're warming upfor the big thrills coming later.
444
00:27:30,197 --> 00:27:32,597
Watch them miss by inchesand never scrape a fender.
445
00:27:32,766 --> 00:27:34,597
They didn't have to be taught this one.
446
00:27:34,768 --> 00:27:38,329
They learned how to do itdodging Sunday drivers.
447
00:27:38,505 --> 00:27:40,097
And now a triple-thrill spectacle.
448
00:27:40,274 --> 00:27:43,732
A human battering ram will attemptto smack through a flaming wall of fire.
449
00:27:43,911 --> 00:27:47,176
There he is, rushing headfirstat that blazing mass of fiery timber.
450
00:27:47,348 --> 00:27:50,840
Maybe he can get through, maybe he can't,but there's no turning back now.
451
00:27:51,018 --> 00:27:52,485
He made it.
452
00:27:52,653 --> 00:27:57,989
And here he comes at breakneck speedand he'll break his neck if he misses.
453
00:27:58,158 --> 00:28:01,525
Now the greatest exhibition
of precision driving the world has ever seen.
454
00:28:01,695 --> 00:28:05,028
Mile-a-minute speed. It takes
ice-cold nerve and hair-trigger timing.
455
00:28:05,199 --> 00:28:08,168
Performed by that man of many medals,that famous ex-Marine...
456
00:28:08,335 --> 00:28:11,065
...the greatest auto daredevil of all,Mike Brannan.
457
00:28:11,238 --> 00:28:13,729
And there he is, ladies and gentlemen.
458
00:28:15,743 --> 00:28:18,075
So far we've only been warming up.Only warming up.
459
00:28:18,245 --> 00:28:20,645
Here's where the big thrills begin.
460
00:28:20,814 --> 00:28:23,874
Mike Brannan is now giving an exhibitionof hair-trigger balancing.
461
00:28:24,051 --> 00:28:26,849
Driving with one hand,holding a handkerchief in the other...
462
00:28:27,021 --> 00:28:28,784
...he's keeping the car on two wheels.
463
00:28:29,290 --> 00:28:32,726
Look at that Brannan go.He's about to attempt a snap roll.
464
00:28:32,893 --> 00:28:35,555
Watch him now. Watch him.
465
00:28:35,729 --> 00:28:39,756
And there he is, back onall four wheels and driving away.
466
00:28:39,934 --> 00:28:42,994
He's got complete controlof that car all the time.
467
00:28:43,170 --> 00:28:47,072
But you ain't seen nothing yet, folks.You ain't seen nothing yet.
468
00:28:47,241 --> 00:28:50,233
These feats of skill and daringget tougher and more dangerous.
469
00:28:50,411 --> 00:28:52,743
He is now aboutto attempt the impossible...
470
00:28:52,913 --> 00:28:55,780
...the catapult leap,85 feet through space, over another car.
471
00:28:55,950 --> 00:28:58,077
He made it.And here comes a second jump.
472
00:28:58,252 --> 00:29:01,585
Can he do it again? He did.
473
00:29:01,755 --> 00:29:05,122
And now the big event of the evening,
that stupendous super-spectacle...
474
00:29:05,292 --> 00:29:08,784
...the topper of this death-defying program,
the rocket auto...
475
00:29:08,963 --> 00:29:13,195
...driven at breakneck speed through
this solid wall of 20 tons of solid ice...
476
00:29:13,367 --> 00:29:16,063
...built into a barrierthat would baffle a bulldozer.
477
00:29:16,236 --> 00:29:18,295
With dynamite clampedto the front bumpers...
478
00:29:18,472 --> 00:29:20,667
...Mike Brannan will raceinto that wall of ice.
479
00:29:20,874 --> 00:29:23,240
And the dynamiteis set to explode on contact.
480
00:29:23,410 --> 00:29:26,004
Mike Brannan knows the risks,but he's got the nerve.
481
00:29:26,180 --> 00:29:27,875
All right, light them.
482
00:29:28,482 --> 00:29:30,882
They're lighting the rocketsat the tail of his car.
483
00:29:31,051 --> 00:29:35,147
And there he is, taking off.Watch him go. He's picking up speed, now.
484
00:29:35,322 --> 00:29:37,654
He'll smash into that wallgoing 70 miles an hour.
485
00:29:37,825 --> 00:29:41,192
Can this fearless driver get through alive?It don't look like it.
486
00:29:41,362 --> 00:29:44,388
But watch it. Watch it.
487
00:29:44,565 --> 00:29:47,193
He made it.He got through. It's a miracle.
488
00:29:47,368 --> 00:29:50,337
What a guy. And there he is, folks.
489
00:29:50,504 --> 00:29:52,096
Give him a great big hand.
490
00:29:52,272 --> 00:29:55,639
Give him a real hand, folks.A real big hand.
491
00:29:59,813 --> 00:30:01,542
And that's it for tonight, folks.
492
00:30:01,715 --> 00:30:05,617
Don't forget to come back.Bring your friends.
493
00:30:15,329 --> 00:30:17,297
How do you get the men
to do these stunts?
494
00:30:17,464 --> 00:30:20,433
-They wanna make a fast buck.
-They must take an awful beating.
495
00:30:20,601 --> 00:30:23,229
Beating, they sure do.
I've done them all myself...
496
00:30:23,404 --> 00:30:26,896
...and I've broken every bone in my body,
including my coccyx.
497
00:30:27,074 --> 00:30:31,306
Looks like I have to start breaking them
again because my star driver quit tonight.
498
00:30:31,478 --> 00:30:33,241
Pardon me, lady. Excuse me.
499
00:30:40,888 --> 00:30:43,948
-See you later, Mike.
-Yeah, sure.
500
00:30:48,028 --> 00:30:52,590
Well, look who's here.
What do you want this time?
501
00:30:52,766 --> 00:30:55,257
I came to see the show.
I've never seen one before.
502
00:30:55,436 --> 00:30:57,666
-Did you see all you wanted?
-I've seen enough.
503
00:30:57,838 --> 00:31:01,330
That's fine,
because that was my last performance.
504
00:31:01,742 --> 00:31:03,972
Don't hurry away, sister.
505
00:31:08,849 --> 00:31:13,081
Been waiting to thank you for that publicity
that was gonna be better than money.
506
00:31:13,253 --> 00:31:14,743
You're welcome. You earned it.
507
00:31:14,922 --> 00:31:18,358
-You doing another column on me?
-You're only worth a couple of lines.
508
00:31:18,525 --> 00:31:21,221
Don't write them.
Been risking my neck with this outfit.
509
00:31:21,395 --> 00:31:23,659
-I hope they pay well.
-A hundred bucks a show.
510
00:31:23,831 --> 00:31:26,823
I've been saving every dime.
I'm gonna drive with the big cars...
511
00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:29,400
...and what you wrote about me
doesn't go with them.
512
00:31:29,570 --> 00:31:33,165
So I'm warning you,
lay off of me in the future.
513
00:31:33,340 --> 00:31:34,637
You're warning me?
514
00:31:34,808 --> 00:31:40,007
You'd better listen to what I'm saying
or I'll knock that smile off your face.
515
00:31:41,014 --> 00:31:42,777
Knock it off.
516
00:31:44,284 --> 00:31:45,979
That's what I'd expect from you.
517
00:31:46,153 --> 00:31:48,417
The guys you run around with
wouldn't do that?
518
00:31:48,589 --> 00:31:50,750
It's time somebody
roughed you up a little.
519
00:31:50,924 --> 00:31:54,382
I can handle you, baby.
You're just another dame to me.
520
00:32:29,796 --> 00:32:32,458
Miss Forbes has been
trying to get hold of you all day.
521
00:32:32,633 --> 00:32:34,032
-Has she?
-Where have you been?
522
00:32:34,201 --> 00:32:37,637
-Is that Gregg?
-You'd better get in there fast.
523
00:32:39,106 --> 00:32:40,437
I wanna talk to you.
524
00:32:40,607 --> 00:32:44,099
Hello, Regina. Something bothering you?
525
00:32:44,278 --> 00:32:46,269
Why did you put in
this blast about Brannan?
526
00:32:46,446 --> 00:32:49,745
-You told me to do an item on him.
-I didn't say to write a book.
527
00:32:49,917 --> 00:32:51,908
-It's just a paragraph.
-It's what's in it.
528
00:32:52,085 --> 00:32:55,452
You sneer at him for being in a thrill circus,
how low can a guy get?
529
00:32:55,622 --> 00:32:58,819
You ask if he's trying to break his own neck
to make up for Trenton.
530
00:32:58,992 --> 00:33:00,926
That's cheap, Gregg. It hurts the column.
531
00:33:01,094 --> 00:33:04,257
We crucified him once. There's no need
to run him into the ground.
532
00:33:04,431 --> 00:33:07,229
Could there be something personal
in this?
533
00:33:07,401 --> 00:33:10,097
Personal? Why, you--
534
00:33:11,471 --> 00:33:12,995
I don't wanna talk to anybody.
535
00:33:13,173 --> 00:33:15,198
I've only seen the man twice in my life.
536
00:33:15,375 --> 00:33:19,641
Twice? Only once, surely, at Newark.
Where'd you see him again?
537
00:33:19,813 --> 00:33:22,976
I meant twice at Newark,
before the race and after.
538
00:33:23,150 --> 00:33:24,310
This is poor reporting.
539
00:33:24,484 --> 00:33:27,715
He's not with Chitwood
and his daredevils anymore.
540
00:33:27,888 --> 00:33:29,856
Where's he gone?
541
00:33:30,724 --> 00:33:32,658
I don't know.
542
00:34:19,006 --> 00:34:22,032
-How many times has this car run?
-Just once. Langhorne.
543
00:34:22,209 --> 00:34:24,609
She finished sixth
on account of a faulty fuel pump.
544
00:34:24,778 --> 00:34:27,042
Bumped out at Indianapolis
last day of qualifying.
545
00:34:27,214 --> 00:34:29,842
Yeah, I know.
That's where I fell in love with her.
546
00:34:30,017 --> 00:34:31,780
I saw your ad. That's why I'm here.
547
00:34:31,952 --> 00:34:35,149
Well, she's a tubular frame,
torsion-bar suspension...
548
00:34:35,322 --> 00:34:40,555
...Norden steering, Rudge hubs,
Conzi quick-change rear end.
549
00:34:40,727 --> 00:34:44,094
And she's got all the latest gadgets.
She's my baby.
550
00:34:44,264 --> 00:34:46,164
Did you ever see a prettier chassis?
551
00:34:46,333 --> 00:34:49,496
No. If she could cook, I'd marry her.
552
00:35:02,449 --> 00:35:03,882
This car was built for me.
553
00:35:05,319 --> 00:35:07,810
Say, didn't you drive
at Indianapolis one time?
554
00:35:07,988 --> 00:35:10,479
Twice. I drove a Miller.
555
00:35:11,725 --> 00:35:14,853
I would like to have this car
for that 100-mile race at Greengrove.
556
00:35:15,028 --> 00:35:18,191
-You could win with her.
-Yeah, that's what I think.
557
00:35:18,365 --> 00:35:21,766
If I bought her, could I do my tuning here?
I've got no place of my own.
558
00:35:21,935 --> 00:35:25,393
-Sure, you can sleep here if you like.
-Would you lend me a pit crew?
559
00:35:25,572 --> 00:35:29,770
I'll do better than that.
I'll go myself. I love this car.
560
00:35:29,943 --> 00:35:32,377
I want to see her win.
561
00:35:33,747 --> 00:35:37,843
Well, I've got $ 7000, cash.
562
00:35:38,018 --> 00:35:39,747
Well, the price is 10.
563
00:35:39,920 --> 00:35:42,787
You take the 7 now
and I'll pay you the rest after Greengrove.
564
00:35:42,956 --> 00:35:44,685
-Suppose you don't win?
-I'll win.
565
00:35:44,858 --> 00:35:48,658
If I don't, you can take back the car
and keep the money I paid you.
566
00:35:48,829 --> 00:35:52,321
I'll give you a fairer deal than that.
I remember your name now.
567
00:35:52,499 --> 00:35:55,332
-Brannan, isn't it?
-That's right. Mike Brannan.
568
00:35:55,502 --> 00:35:58,699
Well, you were driving midgets
for a while.
569
00:35:58,872 --> 00:36:01,033
You got a lot of publicity too,
didn't you?
570
00:36:01,208 --> 00:36:03,699
Yeah, I got some more today.
571
00:36:37,444 --> 00:36:40,641
-I get around, don't I?
-So does that column of yours.
572
00:36:40,814 --> 00:36:42,577
Would you like to hit me again?
573
00:36:42,749 --> 00:36:45,240
-Would it do any good?
-No.
574
00:36:58,465 --> 00:37:00,956
Did you lose something?
575
00:37:01,134 --> 00:37:04,262
-What are you doing here?
-They told me you were walking the track.
576
00:37:04,438 --> 00:37:07,305
-I mean in Illinois?
-I came to see tomorrow's race.
577
00:37:07,474 --> 00:37:10,034
-You've no interest in racing.
-No, but my sponsor has.
578
00:37:10,210 --> 00:37:11,609
-Who's he?
-Magnum Oil.
579
00:37:11,778 --> 00:37:14,178
-Most of the cars are running on it.
-Well, I'm not.
580
00:37:14,347 --> 00:37:18,477
-Look, about that crack in the column--
-Oh, save your breath.
581
00:37:18,652 --> 00:37:21,678
-You're going to listen. l--
-Hold it.
582
00:37:21,855 --> 00:37:24,983
Back up. Go on. Further back.
583
00:37:25,158 --> 00:37:27,353
-I didn't write it.
-It was under your name.
584
00:37:27,527 --> 00:37:30,894
-It got in without my seeing it.
-Further back. Hold it.
585
00:37:31,598 --> 00:37:34,999
-I'll bet. Now, come this way.
-I don't get this.
586
00:37:35,168 --> 00:37:38,228
Never mind. Just keep moving. Come on.
587
00:37:38,405 --> 00:37:40,839
Well, yeah, but what are you doing?
588
00:37:41,007 --> 00:37:44,135
Look at your heels sink in there.
Doesn't that tell you something?
589
00:37:44,311 --> 00:37:47,838
-It tells me I'm ruining a good pair of shoes.
-Well, you can afford them.
590
00:37:48,014 --> 00:37:52,212
Look at that soft spot
just where I'll be gunning into the turn.
591
00:37:52,819 --> 00:37:55,515
That's what I'm doing,
looking for soft spots.
592
00:37:56,189 --> 00:38:00,523
Figuring where the sun will be
and where the wind will hit me.
593
00:38:00,694 --> 00:38:02,025
Well, this is okay.
594
00:38:02,195 --> 00:38:05,892
I'll stay close to the rail. Give me six feet
and I can get through anywhere.
595
00:38:06,066 --> 00:38:08,557
And without dynamite
on your bumper, huh?
596
00:38:08,735 --> 00:38:11,226
If you've said all you came to say,
why don't you go?
597
00:38:11,404 --> 00:38:15,067
-This is a mile track. I'm not halfway yet.
-Go ahead. I'm not stopping you.
598
00:38:15,242 --> 00:38:18,302
If you wanna get in some guy's hair,
go find someone else.
599
00:38:18,478 --> 00:38:20,446
Yeah, but I like being in yours.
600
00:38:23,617 --> 00:38:26,677
-What's the matter?
-lf you can spare me, I'll go back.
601
00:38:27,387 --> 00:38:29,321
I broke a heel.
602
00:38:33,293 --> 00:38:34,590
You'll ruin your socks.
603
00:38:47,807 --> 00:38:49,536
Come here.
604
00:38:52,879 --> 00:38:55,211
All the soft spots aren't on the track.
605
00:38:55,382 --> 00:38:58,442
Well, you keep your mind
on the ones that are.
606
00:39:04,958 --> 00:39:07,483
What are your chances tomorrow?
607
00:39:08,828 --> 00:39:10,853
Skip tomorrow.
Where do you go after that?
608
00:39:11,031 --> 00:39:13,864
-Springfield.
-Where after Springfield?
609
00:39:14,868 --> 00:39:18,065
You're just trying to keep my mind
on the race, aren't you?
610
00:39:18,905 --> 00:39:21,965
Well, after that,
it's the Indiana Fairgrounds...
611
00:39:22,142 --> 00:39:26,340
...Milwaukee, Salem,
and the season closes at Syracuse.
612
00:39:26,513 --> 00:39:28,674
That's when I break training.
613
00:39:29,215 --> 00:39:31,115
Wanna make a date?
614
00:39:35,055 --> 00:39:37,546
You figure everything, don't you?
615
00:39:37,924 --> 00:39:40,017
Everything.
616
00:39:54,708 --> 00:39:55,697
Goodbye.
617
00:40:07,487 --> 00:40:10,149
The pace car is bringing them aroundin the parade lap...
618
00:40:10,323 --> 00:40:13,292
...coming through the turn,for that 90-mile-an-hour start.
619
00:40:13,460 --> 00:40:15,758
Eighteen of them all tuned upand raring to go.
620
00:40:15,929 --> 00:40:17,556
They're crowding the pace car.
621
00:40:17,731 --> 00:40:20,359
These leadfoots can't wait.And there they go.
622
00:40:20,533 --> 00:40:23,730
Mashing down on those throttles,it's a dogfight right from the gun.
623
00:40:23,903 --> 00:40:26,428
Every man for himselfas they jockey that first turn.
624
00:40:26,606 --> 00:40:30,804
There's Number 17 going up on the inside.Mike Brannan pouring it on. He's moving up.
625
00:40:30,977 --> 00:40:34,344
Chuck Leighton in Number 19 shakingloose, going up with the front men.
626
00:40:34,514 --> 00:40:36,607
And the battle for first place is really on.
627
00:40:36,783 --> 00:40:40,412
They're jamming into the backstretch.It's Leighton, Brannan, and number 54...
628
00:40:40,587 --> 00:40:43,021
...setting the paceand the rest howling after them.
629
00:40:43,189 --> 00:40:45,851
They're still sorting themselvesout down the backstretch.
630
00:40:46,026 --> 00:40:49,723
Going in the turn, it's Leightontaking his Cannonball Special into the lead.
631
00:40:49,896 --> 00:40:52,694
Coming through wide open,grabbing inches where they can.
632
00:40:52,866 --> 00:40:55,198
These boys ain't fooling.
They really mean it.
633
00:40:55,368 --> 00:40:58,929
Making the fur fly from the start,
all of them buttoned down and barreling.
634
00:40:59,139 --> 00:41:04,236
Chuck Leighton, Johnny Probeck in 54,Brannan in 17, Duane Carter in 98.
635
00:41:04,411 --> 00:41:07,642
Then it's 14, 22, 27as they come past the grandstand.
636
00:41:07,814 --> 00:41:11,545
But they're swapping places all the time.Brannan's gained on Johnny Probeck.
637
00:41:11,718 --> 00:41:13,709
He's taking 17 into second spot.
638
00:41:13,887 --> 00:41:16,856
Nope, there's Bob Sweikercoming up in number 14.
639
00:41:17,023 --> 00:41:19,150
He's trying to go by Brannanon the outside.
640
00:41:19,325 --> 00:41:21,350
He can't quite make it.He's falling away.
641
00:41:21,528 --> 00:41:25,328
And it's Johnny Probeck going into the leadwith that new Walker Special.
642
00:41:25,498 --> 00:41:28,262
Mike Brannan grabs second place,not a half a length behind.
643
00:41:28,435 --> 00:41:30,960
This is gonna be a high-speed brawlall the way, folks.
644
00:41:31,137 --> 00:41:34,595
Everybody's rolling. Anybody wantsto stay in front, he's gotta go.
645
00:41:34,774 --> 00:41:38,141
Probeck's got the lead, but Brannan'sliable to move him over anytime.
646
00:41:38,311 --> 00:41:40,779
He's got three red-hot chauffeurson his tail.
647
00:41:40,947 --> 00:41:43,916
-They're jamming in there behind Brannan.
-He's pretty good.
648
00:41:44,084 --> 00:41:47,019
-He's good if he can stay up there.
-He's up there now.
649
00:41:47,587 --> 00:41:50,420
You know, I'm just beginning
to figure out why we're here.
650
00:41:50,590 --> 00:41:52,717
-Our sponsor invited us, remember?
-Of course.
651
00:41:52,892 --> 00:41:55,360
And you had no idea Brannan
was racing today.
652
00:41:55,528 --> 00:41:58,497
-You know this Brannan, don't you?
-I met him once back east.
653
00:41:58,665 --> 00:42:01,998
He's quite a driver. He's practically
the only one not using Magnum Oil.
654
00:42:02,168 --> 00:42:04,363
It'd murder me if he won.
655
00:42:04,537 --> 00:42:08,837
Johnny Probeck's still in the lead at the end
of the fastest 40 laps ever on this track.
656
00:42:09,008 --> 00:42:12,910
Ninety-seven-point-three miles per hour
and the speed is still going up.
657
00:42:13,079 --> 00:42:16,071
It's Car Number 22 in second.
No, no, he isn't.
658
00:42:16,249 --> 00:42:17,682
There's that Brannan again.
659
00:42:17,851 --> 00:42:20,979
He's gonna make it hot for Probeck in 54.They're close.
660
00:42:21,154 --> 00:42:23,645
There's nothing between them nowexcept a little dust.
661
00:42:23,823 --> 00:42:27,088
Anything can happen when carsare traveling at this terrific pace.
662
00:42:27,260 --> 00:42:28,784
They're really bunched in there.
663
00:42:28,962 --> 00:42:31,522
Brannan's trying to shake the packin the west turn.
664
00:42:31,698 --> 00:42:33,359
He wants to get out ahead of 54.
665
00:42:33,533 --> 00:42:36,161
Brannan's sparking the race,egging Probeck on...
666
00:42:36,336 --> 00:42:38,327
...making the boys hustleto stay with him.
667
00:42:38,505 --> 00:42:40,769
He's bearing down nowand moving up on 54.
668
00:42:40,940 --> 00:42:44,967
The track's getting plenty cut up out there.They're blasting through a lot of dust.
669
00:42:45,145 --> 00:42:48,603
-Brannan will take him this lap.
-Looks like he doesn't need Magnum Oil.
670
00:42:48,782 --> 00:42:52,411
Probeck's out in front, but coming throughthe west turn, Brannan's closed up.
671
00:42:52,585 --> 00:42:54,746
He's slowing up.He seems to be in trouble.
672
00:42:54,921 --> 00:42:57,685
Chuck Leighton and Number 14both going ahead of him now.
673
00:42:57,857 --> 00:43:00,257
He's slowed right down.That motor don't sound good.
674
00:43:00,426 --> 00:43:03,554
Something would have to giveat the pace those boys have been going.
675
00:43:03,730 --> 00:43:06,665
It's tough luck.Just when he was ready to grab that lead.
676
00:43:06,833 --> 00:43:09,529
But his pit crew's all set.They're ready for him.
677
00:43:09,702 --> 00:43:13,297
They're swarming over that car,changing plugs and both rear wheels.
678
00:43:13,473 --> 00:43:16,704
They're working every second.No waste motion anywhere.
679
00:43:16,876 --> 00:43:19,367
Every man knows what he's got to doand he's doing it.
680
00:43:19,546 --> 00:43:23,004
But Brannan is as cool as a cucumberin there. They all are.
681
00:43:23,183 --> 00:43:26,744
But they're under terrific tension,with cars screaming by all the time...
682
00:43:26,920 --> 00:43:28,945
...leaving him further and further behind.
683
00:43:29,122 --> 00:43:31,590
A stop like this can killa man's chances in a race.
684
00:43:31,758 --> 00:43:34,886
Those mechanics are throwing themselvesout of joint to get him out.
685
00:43:35,061 --> 00:43:38,861
He's been in there now 15 seconds.That's a lot of time in a race like this.
686
00:43:39,032 --> 00:43:41,660
I'm gonna start burning rubber
when I get out there.
687
00:43:41,835 --> 00:43:44,065
Half a lap ahead of him. There they go.
688
00:43:44,237 --> 00:43:46,535
Come on. Come on.
Shake it up. Get me going.
689
00:43:46,706 --> 00:43:50,073
-Jim Davies is now second.
-Hit the button.
690
00:43:50,476 --> 00:43:52,637
--both fighting it out for fourth spot.
691
00:43:52,812 --> 00:43:56,009
I've gotta get in the money to pay
for this car. Let's go. Let's go.
692
00:43:56,182 --> 00:43:59,049
He's been in for 30 seconds.They're slamming on that wheel.
693
00:43:59,219 --> 00:44:02,711
He'll be away any moment.There he goes.
694
00:44:06,259 --> 00:44:08,124
Powersliding and his tail wagging.
695
00:44:08,294 --> 00:44:11,661
That fast-moving pit crew of hischanged two plugs, both rear wheels...
696
00:44:11,831 --> 00:44:15,164
...slapped him on the backand got him out again in 36 seconds.
697
00:44:15,335 --> 00:44:18,566
-He's almost a lap behind now.
-Brannan will never catch those babies.
698
00:44:18,738 --> 00:44:20,797
Now, isn't that too bad?
699
00:44:20,974 --> 00:44:22,874
Give me a cigarette.
700
00:44:23,042 --> 00:44:26,876
Now, the front spots are still the same,54, 22 and 27.
701
00:44:27,280 --> 00:44:30,477
It's a cinch for one to win.Looks like Brannan's got other ideas.
702
00:44:30,650 --> 00:44:32,550
He's going like a loose bullet out there.
703
00:44:32,719 --> 00:44:36,849
He's caught one of the tail runners already,Number 9. Brannan's there and pinching.
704
00:44:37,023 --> 00:44:38,513
He's out there alone.
705
00:44:38,691 --> 00:44:41,785
He's got the track all to himself nowand he's chasing everybody.
706
00:44:41,961 --> 00:44:44,156
Look at him go.
The leaders haven't changed.
707
00:44:44,330 --> 00:44:48,323
It's Probeck, Davies and Ben Freiden.
But it's Brannan who's making this race.
708
00:44:48,501 --> 00:44:52,164
They said nobody could make a pit stop
in a 100-mile race such as he did...
709
00:44:52,338 --> 00:44:55,774
...and have a chance at winning it,
but Brannan doesn't know how to quit.
710
00:44:55,942 --> 00:45:00,538
He's back in there, driving like a wild man.
His last 10 laps were a track record.
711
00:45:00,713 --> 00:45:04,706
He's after them. If he's got enough laps
to do it in, he can still win.
712
00:45:04,884 --> 00:45:08,251
His record-breaking speed overthose last 10 laps was 98.4 miles an hour.
713
00:45:08,421 --> 00:45:12,551
-He's terrific. Has he got a chance?
-He hasn't got a prayer.
714
00:45:15,228 --> 00:45:16,957
My hope is she holds together.
715
00:45:17,130 --> 00:45:20,691
Watch it. Watch it. There's a crackup.Is Brannan in it? No, no, he made it.
716
00:45:20,867 --> 00:45:24,325
He's driving right on through.That was Kasso and Gorlan in that spill.
717
00:45:24,504 --> 00:45:27,029
It looked bad for a minute,but they're both okay.
718
00:45:27,206 --> 00:45:28,673
They're out waving to the crowd.
719
00:45:28,841 --> 00:45:32,106
Now, over in the backstretch,Brannan's taking cars one at a time.
720
00:45:32,278 --> 00:45:35,509
If he can keep up this blistering pace,he'll hit that pay dirt.
721
00:45:35,682 --> 00:45:38,310
And now, coming into the west turn,it's Probeck in 54...
722
00:45:38,484 --> 00:45:41,453
...then Jim Davies, Hoot Mailerand here comes Brannan...
723
00:45:41,621 --> 00:45:43,953
...riding into fifth placeas they hit the stretch.
724
00:45:44,123 --> 00:45:47,559
They've put out a signal at Brannan's pittelling him how many laps to go.
725
00:45:47,727 --> 00:45:51,254
Nine laps. And in the stretch--There, he's catching Hoot Mailer in 34.
726
00:45:51,431 --> 00:45:53,296
Boy, he's standing on that throttle now.
727
00:45:53,466 --> 00:45:56,629
If his motor can take that beating,he'll be up with Probeck yet.
728
00:45:56,803 --> 00:45:58,828
They're all barreling through that turn.
729
00:45:59,005 --> 00:46:02,304
Watch it. Mailer's spinning. It's close.Somebody's gonna hit him.
730
00:46:02,475 --> 00:46:04,875
There's Brannan coming up.He made it on the inside.
731
00:46:05,044 --> 00:46:06,773
That puts him in fourth place.
732
00:46:06,946 --> 00:46:09,005
What a driver.
There's a boy who can stop...
733
00:46:09,182 --> 00:46:11,742
...change plugs, polish his goggles,
spit in your eye...
734
00:46:11,918 --> 00:46:13,681
...and get up
with only two laps to go.
735
00:46:13,853 --> 00:46:16,617
But distance is running out on him.
Speed is everything now.
736
00:46:16,789 --> 00:46:18,814
And he's catching Jim Davies in 22.
737
00:46:18,992 --> 00:46:21,324
If he gets by, he's in third.He's gonna do it.
738
00:46:21,494 --> 00:46:23,621
He made it.He's hotter than a firecracker.
739
00:46:23,796 --> 00:46:26,492
He's up there, he's third,but the laps are running out.
740
00:46:26,666 --> 00:46:30,397
He's the fastest thing on the track nowand the whole crowd's with him.
741
00:46:30,570 --> 00:46:33,801
There he goes after the guy in second spot,that's Ben Freiden in 27.
742
00:46:33,973 --> 00:46:36,464
Brannan's bearing downgoing into the east turn there.
743
00:46:36,642 --> 00:46:37,973
He's closing up the distance.
744
00:46:38,144 --> 00:46:41,636
Freiden's a tough man to get around,but he's taking Freiden on the outside.
745
00:46:41,814 --> 00:46:44,305
He's passing. He's got him.He's grabbed second place.
746
00:46:44,484 --> 00:46:46,611
Look at him go. He's showing them.
747
00:46:46,786 --> 00:46:48,686
You're putting on quite a show yourself.
748
00:46:48,855 --> 00:46:50,982
He's gotta fight heavy trafficto get at him.
749
00:46:51,157 --> 00:46:53,387
There's less than a lap to go.Can he make it?
750
00:46:53,559 --> 00:46:56,528
Can he get there in time?He's closing in along the backstretch.
751
00:46:56,696 --> 00:46:58,425
They're both lapping the slower cars.
752
00:46:58,598 --> 00:47:01,294
Everybody's getting out of their way,giving them room.
753
00:47:01,467 --> 00:47:03,059
It's gonna be a very close thing.
754
00:47:03,236 --> 00:47:06,137
They're coming through the west turn now
and heading for home.
755
00:47:06,305 --> 00:47:09,274
And it isn't over yet. Here they are.Probeck's still ahead.
756
00:47:09,442 --> 00:47:11,706
Brannan's trying,but he can't quite get up there.
757
00:47:11,878 --> 00:47:14,108
And Probeck's the winner!
758
00:47:14,280 --> 00:47:17,681
That's tough on Brannan.One more lap and he would have had it.
759
00:47:17,950 --> 00:47:20,180
Ben Freiden is third.Jim Davies in 22, fourth.
760
00:47:20,353 --> 00:47:22,913
-Well, that's it.
-Johnny's our boy. Wanna meet him?
761
00:47:23,089 --> 00:47:25,284
She doesn't like race drivers.
762
00:47:27,460 --> 00:47:29,121
And there you have it, folks.
763
00:47:29,295 --> 00:47:33,197
Thanks for coming,and drive carefully going home.
764
00:47:34,200 --> 00:47:36,259
-Swell job, Brannan.
-You should've had it.
765
00:47:36,436 --> 00:47:39,098
Hey, man,
what a ride you gave this baby.
766
00:47:39,272 --> 00:47:42,764
I thought you had it in the bag.
What happened that last lap?
767
00:47:42,942 --> 00:47:44,807
Second-place money doesn't hurt,
does it?
768
00:47:44,977 --> 00:47:46,945
Maybe it's just as well
you didn't win.
769
00:47:47,113 --> 00:47:49,741
The fast boys would've been laying for you
next time out.
770
00:47:49,916 --> 00:47:52,578
And the big purses come later,
don't they?
771
00:47:52,885 --> 00:47:55,012
You talk too much.
772
00:48:29,822 --> 00:48:31,881
The blond on the endin the Debrett show...
773
00:48:32,058 --> 00:48:35,186
...caught a fast lane out of townwith a well-known coffee king.
774
00:48:35,361 --> 00:48:38,228
Now his wife's really got grounds.
775
00:48:39,866 --> 00:48:41,857
"The very rich, very social...
776
00:48:42,034 --> 00:48:44,662
...and not too young
Mrs. Theodore Crampton Coburg...
777
00:48:44,837 --> 00:48:47,203
...who just gave birth
amidst much fanfare...
778
00:48:47,373 --> 00:48:49,967
...had a $20,000 layette,
five doctors in attendance...
779
00:48:50,143 --> 00:48:52,873
...and members of the press waiting
with baited breath.
780
00:48:53,045 --> 00:48:56,242
The baby is quite normal after all.
It only had one head."
781
00:48:59,018 --> 00:49:01,714
Now to bring you up-to-dateon our old friend, Barrington.
782
00:49:01,888 --> 00:49:03,048
Get me long distance.
783
00:49:03,422 --> 00:49:06,084
"He was indicted yesterday
on 14 counts of fraud.
784
00:49:06,259 --> 00:49:08,591
His gold-plated battery
of high-pressure lawyers...
785
00:49:08,761 --> 00:49:12,754
...have sprung him under $ 100,000 bail,
but his freedom is only temporary.
786
00:49:12,932 --> 00:49:17,232
Today they warned him he'll be lucky
if they can get him off with 25 years.
787
00:49:17,403 --> 00:49:19,166
You've got away with it before...
788
00:49:19,338 --> 00:49:21,738
...but you can't Sing Sing your way
out of this one.
789
00:49:21,908 --> 00:49:25,810
And to all men, never forget,
the sweet things you don't say to her...
790
00:49:25,978 --> 00:49:28,446
...will be said by someone else.
Good night."
791
00:49:28,614 --> 00:49:31,708
"Listen to Regina Forbes every week,
same time, same station.
792
00:49:31,884 --> 00:49:34,148
And remember,
there's no oil like Magnum Oil...
793
00:49:34,320 --> 00:49:37,221
...the oil that's easy on your engine."
794
00:49:37,390 --> 00:49:38,618
We're off.
795
00:49:41,127 --> 00:49:44,187
-We ran long. Did I come over all right?
-You're always wonderful.
796
00:49:44,363 --> 00:49:47,594
-There's a long-distance call for you.
-Can't you take care of it?
797
00:49:48,167 --> 00:49:51,068
I will if you like. It's Mike Brannan.
798
00:49:57,176 --> 00:49:59,804
Hello? Yes, it is.
799
00:50:04,250 --> 00:50:07,117
You won again today, didn't you?
Congratulations.
800
00:50:07,286 --> 00:50:09,777
Thanks. That winds up the season.
801
00:50:09,956 --> 00:50:11,719
Haven't we got a date now?
802
00:50:11,891 --> 00:50:15,292
If we have, I'll come to New York.
If not, I'll go on to Toledo.
803
00:50:17,930 --> 00:50:19,693
I wouldn't go to Toledo.
804
00:50:20,499 --> 00:50:23,957
Shall we make it tomorrow night at 8?
I'll pick you up.
805
00:50:24,136 --> 00:50:25,467
How do I find your apartment?
806
00:50:26,906 --> 00:50:28,567
Why don't you try the phone book?
807
00:50:28,741 --> 00:50:31,938
Nice to hear from you again. Goodbye.
808
00:50:34,680 --> 00:50:38,172
-That sounded like a neat brushoff.
-Yes.
809
00:50:38,351 --> 00:50:40,751
I thought I did very well.
810
00:52:02,768 --> 00:52:04,463
Thanks.
811
00:52:09,375 --> 00:52:11,309
How many times have I seen you?
812
00:52:11,477 --> 00:52:14,605
Oh, three or four, I don't know.
813
00:52:14,780 --> 00:52:16,680
You look better each time.
814
00:52:16,849 --> 00:52:18,783
You do too.
815
00:52:26,959 --> 00:52:29,792
-What was that for?
-I just wanted to do it.
816
00:52:32,998 --> 00:52:34,465
You're quite a guy, aren't you?
817
00:53:00,960 --> 00:53:02,985
There's nobody like you.
818
00:53:03,162 --> 00:53:04,561
What do you mean by that?
819
00:53:04,730 --> 00:53:06,994
Oh, you're not just any dame.
820
00:53:07,166 --> 00:53:10,897
-Did you think I was?
-Sure. I told you, remember?
821
00:53:11,070 --> 00:53:13,834
Most dames, you're out for a few laughs,
a couple of drinks.
822
00:53:14,006 --> 00:53:16,406
Spend a little time with them
and then forget them.
823
00:53:16,575 --> 00:53:18,907
Doesn't work that way with you.
824
00:53:19,111 --> 00:53:20,339
Doesn't it?
825
00:53:20,513 --> 00:53:23,311
Stick around you long enough
and something could happen.
826
00:53:24,016 --> 00:53:26,041
It happened a long time ago, Mike.
827
00:53:26,218 --> 00:53:29,449
-You know that as well as I do.
-I know it.
828
00:53:30,423 --> 00:53:33,119
I beg your pardon, Miss Forbes,
your office is on the line.
829
00:53:33,292 --> 00:53:35,817
I don't wanna talk to them now.
Thank you.
830
00:53:36,195 --> 00:53:37,822
Oh, that might be important.
831
00:53:37,997 --> 00:53:39,692
It can't be as important as this.
832
00:53:41,066 --> 00:53:43,796
You mean I'm important to you?
833
00:53:44,203 --> 00:53:45,864
More than you know.
834
00:53:47,673 --> 00:53:49,766
Oh, but you've got a big job, baby.
835
00:53:49,942 --> 00:53:52,137
A wonderful way of living.
You're somebody.
836
00:53:52,845 --> 00:53:54,574
Mike, don't you know?
837
00:53:54,747 --> 00:53:57,307
You're nobody until somebody loves you.
838
00:53:59,018 --> 00:54:00,952
I know it now.
839
00:54:02,922 --> 00:54:06,449
-I never thought about that before.
-I hadn't either.
840
00:54:06,826 --> 00:54:09,989
We don't, you know.
Not people like you and me.
841
00:54:10,930 --> 00:54:13,364
We're alike in a lot of ways.
842
00:54:14,233 --> 00:54:16,064
But not in others.
843
00:54:16,235 --> 00:54:18,328
Well, that's what makes it good.
844
00:54:18,871 --> 00:54:21,271
Maybe it can keep us apart.
845
00:54:47,600 --> 00:54:49,158
You know...
846
00:54:49,635 --> 00:54:52,570
...there are some things about you
I can't figure.
847
00:54:52,738 --> 00:54:54,831
One has always bothered me.
848
00:54:55,007 --> 00:54:58,170
-Yeah? What's that?
-You won't like it.
849
00:54:58,344 --> 00:55:00,437
It's something you said that night
at Newark:
850
00:55:00,613 --> 00:55:04,447
"It's happened before,
it will happen again."
851
00:55:07,086 --> 00:55:09,384
You still believe I killed that guy,
don't you?
852
00:55:09,555 --> 00:55:11,113
I didn't say that.
853
00:55:11,290 --> 00:55:14,623
Of course not, but it's on your mind.
It keeps coming up.
854
00:55:16,328 --> 00:55:20,355
Where you're concerned, I'll always be
like a man acquitted of murder.
855
00:55:20,633 --> 00:55:23,067
You look at him and you wonder...
856
00:55:23,235 --> 00:55:25,203
...did he or didn't he?
857
00:55:25,371 --> 00:55:27,965
You can never be sure, absolutely sure.
858
00:55:28,140 --> 00:55:31,166
I'd be sure if it never happened again.
859
00:55:31,777 --> 00:55:35,178
If it happened again,
I'd do the same thing again.
860
00:55:35,347 --> 00:55:39,340
-You'd deliberately ride a man into a wreck?
-That's what you believe I did, isn't it?
861
00:55:39,518 --> 00:55:42,919
It isn't what I believe, it's what I saw.
It's what you did.
862
00:55:43,088 --> 00:55:46,785
What do you want me to do,
kill myself to please you?
863
00:55:48,060 --> 00:55:53,896
Well, now you see the thing
that can keep us apart.
864
00:55:56,035 --> 00:55:58,128
Yes, you thought I was a heel.
865
00:55:58,304 --> 00:56:01,933
Well, give it time.
Maybe I'll prove you're right.
866
00:56:02,107 --> 00:56:04,803
You should have gone to Toledo.
867
00:56:05,110 --> 00:56:07,476
I couldn't stay away from you.
868
00:56:07,680 --> 00:56:10,547
Miss Forbes, your office is on the line again.
It's Mr. Gregg.
869
00:56:10,716 --> 00:56:12,240
I'll take it now.
870
00:56:14,620 --> 00:56:16,281
Yes, Gregg?
871
00:56:17,723 --> 00:56:20,556
I'll be right over. Thank you.
872
00:56:21,193 --> 00:56:24,253
I have to go back to the office.
Something I have to take care of.
873
00:56:24,430 --> 00:56:28,560
I'm sorry, but maybe it's just as well.
874
00:56:28,934 --> 00:56:31,732
-I'll take you. Check, please.
-Yes, sir.
875
00:56:32,037 --> 00:56:34,505
Could we say goodbye here?
876
00:56:34,673 --> 00:56:36,163
Sure.
877
00:56:39,878 --> 00:56:42,711
Mike, it looks like
everything stops right here.
878
00:56:43,048 --> 00:56:44,743
Some things don't stop so easy.
879
00:56:48,420 --> 00:56:50,388
Don't ever forget...
880
00:56:51,357 --> 00:56:53,552
...you're still quite a guy.
881
00:56:57,463 --> 00:56:58,862
Goodbye.
882
00:57:07,072 --> 00:57:09,870
You couldn't have
taken care of this yourself, I suppose?
883
00:57:10,042 --> 00:57:11,634
I don't okay the column anymore...
884
00:57:11,810 --> 00:57:14,836
...not since that blow-off
about your boyfriend. Your own orders.
885
00:57:15,014 --> 00:57:17,380
Oh, did the two of you
have a pleasant evening?
886
00:57:17,549 --> 00:57:19,380
You told me there was nothing in that.
887
00:57:19,551 --> 00:57:21,815
I don't think that's
any business of yours.
888
00:57:21,987 --> 00:57:25,923
I think it is. Anything that interferes
with the column is my business.
889
00:57:27,393 --> 00:57:31,693
Ask the City Room to send up a copy boy
right away, please. Thank you.
890
00:57:31,864 --> 00:57:34,833
You know, I've been watching
all this adolescent by-play...
891
00:57:35,000 --> 00:57:37,833
...this double talk on the telephone.
Cheering him on.
892
00:57:38,003 --> 00:57:40,904
So I cheered, who wouldn't?
He deserved it after what I did.
893
00:57:41,073 --> 00:57:44,372
You did nothing to him.
You called him a killer, exactly what he is.
894
00:57:44,543 --> 00:57:48,639
He had to be to drive a tank,
to do the things he got medals for doing.
895
00:57:48,814 --> 00:57:51,681
Oh, I wouldn't bring up his war record
if I were you.
896
00:57:53,018 --> 00:57:55,646
That man has to have
an extra dose of viciousness in him.
897
00:57:55,821 --> 00:57:58,847
-It comes over him in a race.
-That's guts, not viciousness.
898
00:57:59,024 --> 00:58:01,720
It's more than that.
He was involved in two fatal crackups.
899
00:58:01,894 --> 00:58:04,454
Be a third and fourth
if he doesn't kill himself.
900
00:58:04,630 --> 00:58:07,531
There's a deadly instinct in him.
Kill or be killed. Him or me.
901
00:58:07,700 --> 00:58:09,964
Win. A man like that
doesn't realize it's in him.
902
00:58:10,135 --> 00:58:12,899
-A man can change.
-He can't change. He'll never change.
903
00:58:13,072 --> 00:58:16,166
And if you have any idea
you can change him, forget it.
904
00:58:16,341 --> 00:58:18,434
Stay away from him, Reggie.
905
00:58:19,645 --> 00:58:23,581
That will be easy. He's on his way to Toledo
getting his car ready for Indianapolis.
906
00:58:23,749 --> 00:58:26,582
Indianapolis? He'll go all out to win.
907
00:58:26,752 --> 00:58:29,516
There's where you'll see
what I've been trying to tell you.
908
00:58:31,623 --> 00:58:32,954
I won't see anything.
909
00:58:33,125 --> 00:58:35,286
I don't plan on being there.
910
01:00:07,519 --> 01:00:12,047
This is Ted Husing bringing you the fifth dayof the qualifying trials here at Indianapolis.
911
01:00:12,224 --> 01:00:16,456
Sixty-eight cars entered for the famous500-mile classic on Decoration Day...
912
01:00:16,628 --> 01:00:19,392
...but only the 33 fastest cars can start.
913
01:00:19,565 --> 01:00:23,558
Tomorrow is the last day of qualifyingand everything is at high pitch here.
914
01:00:23,735 --> 01:00:26,431
Everybody is under tension.But the weather's pretty bad.
915
01:00:26,605 --> 01:00:29,301
Storm clouds have blown upand I think it's going to rain.
916
01:00:29,474 --> 01:00:31,567
That'll end the qualifying trialsfor the day.
917
01:00:31,743 --> 01:00:36,180
On the track, Neuhouser is on his last lap,burning up the track at 129 miles per hour.
918
01:00:36,348 --> 01:00:40,011
And here he is, finishing very fast.Thunderclouds over north look very mean.
919
01:00:40,185 --> 01:00:42,210
-Any messages?
-They're on the desk.
920
01:00:42,387 --> 01:00:44,150
And another car waiting to go out.
921
01:00:44,323 --> 01:00:47,224
The Brannan Special, Number 17,driven by Mike Brannan.
922
01:00:47,392 --> 01:00:50,190
Officials are warningif he doesn't get on the track now...
923
01:00:50,362 --> 01:00:54,093
...rain will stop him going out at all.He's stalling. Gambling on the weather.
924
01:00:54,266 --> 01:00:56,826
He can get extra speedout of that moisture-laden air...
925
01:00:57,002 --> 01:00:58,993
...before the storm breaksand he knows it.
926
01:00:59,171 --> 01:01:03,164
He's taking a big chance. If rain hitswhile he's on the track, they'll flag him in...
927
01:01:03,342 --> 01:01:06,140
...for high speed on a wet trackis dangerous and forbidden.
928
01:01:06,311 --> 01:01:09,075
Officials wanna get the qualifying overbefore it rains.
929
01:01:09,248 --> 01:01:10,738
They're keeping right after him.
930
01:01:10,916 --> 01:01:13,111
If he wants to go,he'd better not hold back.
931
01:01:13,285 --> 01:01:15,276
But Brannan isn't letting that worry him.
932
01:01:15,454 --> 01:01:18,389
-He's going when he's ready.
-Enjoying yourself, Regina?
933
01:01:18,557 --> 01:01:23,153
Lou Neuhouser's official qualifying speed,129.2 miles per hour.
934
01:01:23,328 --> 01:01:26,991
That should put him in the race all right.Brannan's still holding back.
935
01:01:27,165 --> 01:01:30,293
It looks almostas if he's got that storm timed.
936
01:01:30,469 --> 01:01:33,802
You know,I think he's finally made up his mind.
937
01:01:33,972 --> 01:01:37,738
He's going to go. Brannan's one of thosedrivers who figures everything ahead.
938
01:01:37,910 --> 01:01:41,539
He's kept his motor warmed up.He can give it the gun right from the start.
939
01:01:41,713 --> 01:01:42,941
That's just as well.
940
01:01:43,115 --> 01:01:45,640
It's going to be a racebetween him and that storm.
941
01:01:45,817 --> 01:01:48,684
This is one way to see Brannan
and still stay away from him.
942
01:01:48,854 --> 01:01:51,152
Those black cloudsare going to unload any moment.
943
01:01:51,323 --> 01:01:53,883
Do you mind?
I've got something important here.
944
01:01:54,059 --> 01:01:55,993
The verdict came in
on Dwight Barrington.
945
01:01:56,161 --> 01:01:57,321
-Guilty.
-What'd he get?
946
01:01:57,496 --> 01:01:58,986
-Twenty-five years.
-He appealed?
947
01:01:59,164 --> 01:02:01,428
He's out on bail.
He knows he hasn't a chance.
948
01:02:01,600 --> 01:02:04,262
-You can take a bow, Regina.
-You bet I'll take a bow.
949
01:02:04,436 --> 01:02:06,631
I told him I'd keep after him
until I got him.
950
01:02:06,805 --> 01:02:10,798
And you got him. But it's turning out
a little differently with Brannan, isn't it?
951
01:02:10,976 --> 01:02:13,240
Around to the main stretch,he's traveling fast.
952
01:02:13,412 --> 01:02:16,313
Brannan's had only one warm-up lap.Usually they need three.
953
01:02:16,481 --> 01:02:19,382
He may take the flagthis first time around. Is he going to?
954
01:02:19,551 --> 01:02:23,009
I think he-- Yes, his hand is up.He is taking the flag and there he goes.
955
01:02:23,188 --> 01:02:26,954
He's blasting into the southeast turn,standing on that throttle and making time.
956
01:02:27,125 --> 01:02:29,753
He's in the groove,barreling around to the backstretch.
957
01:02:29,928 --> 01:02:33,386
That's the fastest part of the course.He'll be hitting 160 miles an hour.
958
01:02:33,799 --> 01:02:37,496
Those storm clouds are right overheadthe north turn. Air's absolutely still.
959
01:02:37,669 --> 01:02:40,103
Not a breath of wind.Driving conditions are perfect.
960
01:02:40,272 --> 01:02:42,467
Brannan had that figured,that's why he waited.
961
01:02:42,641 --> 01:02:44,370
Now he's taking full advantage of it.
962
01:02:44,543 --> 01:02:47,569
Here he comes at the endof his opening lap making terrific time.
963
01:02:47,746 --> 01:02:51,944
He may set up the fastest speed of the dayand there's a big crowd to watch him do it.
964
01:02:52,117 --> 01:02:55,712
Over 100,000 fans turn out every dayto see these important trials.
965
01:02:55,887 --> 01:02:58,651
His time on that lap,one minute, eight seconds on the nose.
966
01:02:58,824 --> 01:03:00,883
132.35 miles per hour.
967
01:03:01,059 --> 01:03:03,789
He's going into the north turn.There's a picture for you.
968
01:03:03,962 --> 01:03:06,624
He's the only moving thing out thereand how he's moving.
969
01:03:06,798 --> 01:03:10,859
The rain's just outside the track.It's close between Brannan and that storm.
970
01:03:11,036 --> 01:03:13,470
Here he comes,the fastest thing on the track today.
971
01:03:13,638 --> 01:03:16,038
He is getting the flag for his last lap.
972
01:03:16,575 --> 01:03:19,305
You know, a driver like Brannanmakes high speed look easy.
973
01:03:19,478 --> 01:03:21,309
But believe me, it's anything but that.
974
01:03:21,480 --> 01:03:24,449
And that time around,he made 132.37 miles per hour...
975
01:03:24,616 --> 01:03:27,346
...practically the same speedas his last lap.
976
01:03:27,519 --> 01:03:30,886
That's consistency,everything under control. What a driver.
977
01:03:31,056 --> 01:03:33,752
He's through the north turn,the rain's hitting the track.
978
01:03:33,925 --> 01:03:36,485
But he's beating it.He's coming around on his last lap.
979
01:03:36,661 --> 01:03:39,824
He's coming into the home stretch.He's okay out of the north turn.
980
01:03:39,998 --> 01:03:44,332
And here he is.Here he is, bringing the rain with him.
981
01:03:45,037 --> 01:03:47,562
Well, that does it.Brannan's strategy paid off.
982
01:03:47,739 --> 01:03:51,106
His speed on that lap,132.39 miles an hour.
983
01:03:51,276 --> 01:03:54,074
-Can't we do without this?
-The official figures in a moment.
984
01:03:54,246 --> 01:03:57,545
-Sure.
-But his speed is the fastest of the day.
985
01:03:57,716 --> 01:04:00,742
Now they know, Brannan'sone of the boys they've got to beat...
986
01:04:00,919 --> 01:04:03,149
...when they line upfor on Decoration Day.
987
01:04:03,321 --> 01:04:05,289
It's all over, anyway.
988
01:04:21,506 --> 01:04:24,407
I wanna place a call
to Indianapolis, please.
989
01:04:24,576 --> 01:04:29,639
I'd like to speak to Mike Brannan
at the Indianapolis Speedway.
990
01:04:29,915 --> 01:04:33,510
Yes, that's right, Mike Brannan.
Thank you.
991
01:04:33,685 --> 01:04:36,813
I don't want any calls except
the one I just placed to Mr. Brannan.
992
01:04:36,988 --> 01:04:38,546
Very good, miss.
993
01:04:55,874 --> 01:04:58,570
-Hello. Remember me?
-Yes, indeed, Mr. Brannan.
994
01:04:58,743 --> 01:05:01,837
-I remember you very well, sir.
-Is she in?
995
01:05:02,013 --> 01:05:05,073
Miss Forbes just placed a call for you
at Indianapolis, sir.
996
01:05:05,250 --> 01:05:07,684
That may be you now. Excuse me.
997
01:05:09,955 --> 01:05:12,924
-Hello?
-Is that my Indianapolis call, Benson?
998
01:05:13,091 --> 01:05:15,082
There's no need to try
and locate him now.
999
01:05:15,260 --> 01:05:18,354
-Benson, is that my call?
-Yes, miss.
1000
01:05:18,530 --> 01:05:21,124
-Cancel the call, please.
-Let me have that.
1001
01:05:21,600 --> 01:05:24,262
Hello. Hello?
1002
01:05:24,436 --> 01:05:27,337
-Hello, yourself.
-Oh, Mike. How are you?
1003
01:05:27,506 --> 01:05:30,566
I saw you on television today.You were terrific. Congratulations.
1004
01:05:30,742 --> 01:05:33,939
Well, thanks.
Is that the only reason you called me?
1005
01:05:34,112 --> 01:05:37,878
No, I wanted to talk to you.
1006
01:05:38,383 --> 01:05:41,352
It's Saturday night and I'm here all alone.
1007
01:05:41,920 --> 01:05:45,321
-Well, I wish I could be there with you.
-Do you?
1008
01:05:45,490 --> 01:05:47,822
Oh, I wish you could too.
1009
01:05:47,993 --> 01:05:52,191
Do you think there's a chance you might
send that butler of yours out to the movies?
1010
01:05:53,532 --> 01:05:56,831
Oh, I think it could be arranged.
1011
01:05:57,869 --> 01:05:59,803
Too bad you're so busy at the track.
1012
01:05:59,971 --> 01:06:04,431
-I suppose you are.
-Oh, yes. They're working me night and day.
1013
01:06:04,609 --> 01:06:08,841
Hey, tell me,
what are you doing right now?
1014
01:06:09,681 --> 01:06:12,980
I brought a lot of stuff homefrom the office. I'm working too.
1015
01:06:13,151 --> 01:06:15,779
Oh, yes, I can see that.
1016
01:06:16,688 --> 01:06:20,715
What do you look like tonight?
I mean, what are you wearing?
1017
01:06:20,892 --> 01:06:25,920
Oh, a little something in silver and silk.
1018
01:06:26,398 --> 01:06:29,424
You mean something with curves?
1019
01:06:29,601 --> 01:06:31,899
-You've got the idea.
-Yeah.
1020
01:06:32,170 --> 01:06:35,230
I wish I could be right there now.
1021
01:06:35,707 --> 01:06:38,938
I said, maybe it's just as well you're not.
1022
01:06:39,110 --> 01:06:40,975
I thought that's what you said.
1023
01:06:41,146 --> 01:06:45,014
-I think it'd be pretty nice.
-Oh, it would.
1024
01:06:45,350 --> 01:06:47,818
The fire is burning...
1025
01:06:48,420 --> 01:06:51,719
...but what good is a fireif it warms only me?
1026
01:06:53,291 --> 01:06:57,990
I'd turn the lamps down low,then you'd light my cigarette.
1027
01:06:58,430 --> 01:07:03,197
And then you'd tell me all the things
you haven't been doing.
1028
01:07:03,368 --> 01:07:05,336
And I wouldn't believe you.
1029
01:07:06,471 --> 01:07:09,565
And then you'd hold my hand.
1030
01:07:09,941 --> 01:07:13,638
And I'd probably have to hold
both of yours.
1031
01:07:14,112 --> 01:07:18,276
Oh, it would be wonderful, Mike.
1032
01:07:21,620 --> 01:07:23,850
Just won--
1033
01:07:32,864 --> 01:07:34,354
Mike?
1034
01:07:35,734 --> 01:07:37,258
Hello?
1035
01:07:37,636 --> 01:07:39,069
Hello.
1036
01:07:42,173 --> 01:07:43,731
Hello.
1037
01:07:45,210 --> 01:07:46,677
I get around, don't I?
1038
01:07:49,848 --> 01:07:53,147
Perfect timing, wasn't it?
You call me and I walk right in.
1039
01:07:53,318 --> 01:07:57,220
Now, let's see,
what was all that you said?
1040
01:07:57,389 --> 01:08:01,325
Oh, yeah, you'd turn the lamp down low.
1041
01:08:06,097 --> 01:08:08,463
Now, let's see,
there was something else you'd--
1042
01:08:08,633 --> 01:08:10,965
Oh, yes, the fire.
1043
01:08:11,136 --> 01:08:14,572
What's the good of a fire
if it warms only me?
1044
01:08:15,540 --> 01:08:18,031
Now it'll warm both of us.
1045
01:08:18,410 --> 01:08:21,868
There. Now, there was one other--
Oh, yes.
1046
01:08:22,047 --> 01:08:25,175
I'd light your cigarette, you said.
1047
01:08:25,450 --> 01:08:27,281
I'm not so sure I like this.
1048
01:08:27,452 --> 01:08:29,784
You know you like it, baby.
1049
01:08:30,388 --> 01:08:32,083
Don't you?
1050
01:08:33,892 --> 01:08:37,760
Now, there was one-- Oh, yes.
1051
01:08:39,764 --> 01:08:42,631
I'd hold your hand, you said.
1052
01:08:44,002 --> 01:08:47,301
And I'd probably have to hold
both of yours.
1053
01:08:49,708 --> 01:08:52,609
I like that, you calling me.
1054
01:08:52,777 --> 01:08:55,245
I liked your coming to see me.
1055
01:08:55,413 --> 01:08:59,406
Well, I had to be in town
to see an old aunt of mine.
1056
01:09:04,622 --> 01:09:07,489
How does your old aunt look?
1057
01:09:08,827 --> 01:09:11,853
She seems to be holding up pretty well.
1058
01:09:12,997 --> 01:09:16,091
You stayed away from her a long time.
1059
01:09:16,801 --> 01:09:19,292
Don't you think she ever gets lonely?
1060
01:09:19,604 --> 01:09:22,072
No. She keeps pretty busy.
1061
01:09:22,240 --> 01:09:25,038
She brings her work home with her.
1062
01:09:26,711 --> 01:09:28,474
This....
1063
01:09:28,880 --> 01:09:31,212
This aunt of yours....
1064
01:09:31,816 --> 01:09:34,284
You must be awfully fond of her...
1065
01:09:34,452 --> 01:09:36,886
...coming all this way to see her.
1066
01:09:37,389 --> 01:09:39,823
I am kind of.
1067
01:09:40,125 --> 01:09:43,492
Does she have something special
about her?
1068
01:09:44,362 --> 01:09:49,459
Baby, what she doesn't have,
she doesn't need.
1069
01:09:52,170 --> 01:09:55,697
I beg your pardon, miss,
but there's a telephone call from Mr. Gregg.
1070
01:09:55,874 --> 01:09:59,037
I told him you did not wish
to take any calls, but he insisted.
1071
01:09:59,210 --> 01:10:01,371
He said he must talk to you.
1072
01:10:01,546 --> 01:10:02,945
Thank you.
1073
01:10:04,449 --> 01:10:05,677
Yes, Gregg?
1074
01:10:05,850 --> 01:10:09,251
Regina,Dwight Barrington just killed himself.
1075
01:10:10,321 --> 01:10:11,788
Killed himself--
1076
01:10:12,624 --> 01:10:14,251
Oh, no.
1077
01:10:14,726 --> 01:10:16,159
No, he couldn't have.
1078
01:10:16,327 --> 01:10:17,487
Well, he did, my pet.
1079
01:10:17,662 --> 01:10:20,460
He went out in style.
He had a conference with his lawyers.
1080
01:10:20,632 --> 01:10:22,623
They told him his appeal
would be hopeless.
1081
01:10:22,801 --> 01:10:25,292
So he smoked a cigar,
drained a snifter of cognac...
1082
01:10:25,470 --> 01:10:27,961
...fitted a pistol to his ear
and shot his brains out.
1083
01:10:28,139 --> 01:10:31,199
But it's terrific, Regina.It's like an open admission of guilt.
1084
01:10:31,376 --> 01:10:34,539
It'll be front page from coast to coast.You'll get all the credit.
1085
01:10:34,712 --> 01:10:38,045
Credit? Oh, Gregg.
1086
01:10:38,216 --> 01:10:40,207
I feel as if I killed him.
1087
01:10:40,385 --> 01:10:44,151
Well, don't be stupid, Regina.
He couldn't face 25 years in jail, that's all.
1088
01:10:44,322 --> 01:10:47,382
-Do you want me to come over there?
-No, no.
1089
01:10:47,659 --> 01:10:51,686
And there's no need to hold the column.
The papers will have it ahead of us.
1090
01:10:52,030 --> 01:10:54,726
I'll see you tomorrow at the office.
1091
01:11:00,038 --> 01:11:02,165
Did you ever hear of Dwight Barrington?
1092
01:11:02,340 --> 01:11:05,571
Sure. The guy you've been needling.
1093
01:11:05,743 --> 01:11:07,870
He just killed himself.
1094
01:11:12,584 --> 01:11:15,985
Well, some guys can take it, some can't.
1095
01:11:17,088 --> 01:11:20,353
It seems you don't always have to drive
a racing car to kill a man.
1096
01:11:20,525 --> 01:11:23,619
-You were only doing your job.
-I should've given him a chance.
1097
01:11:23,795 --> 01:11:26,764
-I never believed he'd do this.
-You were doing your job.
1098
01:11:26,931 --> 01:11:29,627
What you don't understand
is the man is dead because of me.
1099
01:11:29,801 --> 01:11:32,133
You were doing your job,
same as I'm doing mine.
1100
01:11:32,303 --> 01:11:33,531
I've told you that before.
1101
01:11:34,739 --> 01:11:37,606
You're still so sure of yourself,
aren't you?
1102
01:11:37,775 --> 01:11:40,209
Still so sure that you're right.
1103
01:11:41,946 --> 01:11:45,575
There must be something inside you
that makes you the way you are.
1104
01:11:46,017 --> 01:11:48,042
Maybe there has to be.
1105
01:11:50,321 --> 01:11:51,811
Maybe.
1106
01:11:52,590 --> 01:11:55,184
We just don't see things the same way.
1107
01:11:55,727 --> 01:11:57,957
-Are you coming to Indianapolis?
-I don't know.
1108
01:11:58,129 --> 01:12:00,427
I don't think
I want to see you drive again.
1109
01:12:01,165 --> 01:12:05,033
I guess you're right.
We don't see things the same way.
1110
01:12:05,203 --> 01:12:08,036
Everything does stop right here.
1111
01:13:50,174 --> 01:13:52,233
Good morning,
this is Ted Husing speaking.
1112
01:13:52,410 --> 01:13:55,902
We're out here in Indianapolis
getting ready for the great 500-mile classic.
1113
01:13:56,080 --> 01:13:57,877
And the big moment is almost here.
1114
01:13:58,049 --> 01:14:00,540
The one these drivershave been waiting for all year.
1115
01:14:00,718 --> 01:14:02,811
Cars are now rolling outto the starting line.
1116
01:14:02,987 --> 01:14:05,615
The few at the pitsare getting a last-minute checkup.
1117
01:14:05,790 --> 01:14:08,020
There's a crowd of a quarter millionhere today.
1118
01:14:08,192 --> 01:14:11,184
They've come from every stateand every country on Earth.
1119
01:14:11,362 --> 01:14:13,523
They're herefor the thrills and excitement...
1120
01:14:13,698 --> 01:14:16,929
...which can only go witha high-speed spectacle of this kind.
1121
01:14:17,101 --> 01:14:21,231
The fastest long-distance race in the world.There's a carnival atmosphere here.
1122
01:14:21,406 --> 01:14:23,533
People have been comingsince before dawn.
1123
01:14:23,708 --> 01:14:27,701
Stands and bleachers and boxesare packed solid and the infield is jammed...
1124
01:14:27,879 --> 01:14:31,542
...while the coolest men in all thisexcitement are the drivers themselves.
1125
01:14:31,716 --> 01:14:34,048
Their machines are stillwheeling out to the line.
1126
01:14:34,218 --> 01:14:38,712
The mechanics who push them are sportinguniforms that match the colors of the car.
1127
01:14:38,890 --> 01:14:42,758
That was the 9:55 salute bomb.Only five minutes to go.
1128
01:14:42,927 --> 01:14:44,690
Now everybody involved in the race...
1129
01:14:44,862 --> 01:14:47,524
...are grouping at the starting linefor the photographer.
1130
01:14:47,699 --> 01:14:49,291
This is quite a tradition here.
1131
01:14:49,467 --> 01:14:52,402
Drivers, mechanics, timekeepers,officials, yardbirds.
1132
01:14:52,570 --> 01:14:55,767
Why, they all pose for their picturejust before the race starts.
1133
01:14:55,940 --> 01:14:57,168
That's for the scrapbook.
1134
01:14:57,341 --> 01:14:59,673
I'll check on last-minutechanges in the lineup...
1135
01:14:59,844 --> 01:15:01,869
...and be backwhen the boys get rolling....
1136
01:15:02,046 --> 01:15:03,638
Mike.
1137
01:15:06,517 --> 01:15:09,077
-I had to come.
-So I see.
1138
01:15:09,253 --> 01:15:13,485
-Mike, could we start all over?
-Hey, baby, what we had never stopped.
1139
01:15:13,658 --> 01:15:16,024
-Where are you sitting?
-Up there.
1140
01:15:16,194 --> 01:15:18,560
I've never seen anything like this.
It's terrific.
1141
01:15:18,730 --> 01:15:20,789
-So are you.
-It's like the 4th of July...
1142
01:15:20,965 --> 01:15:24,731
...and a heavyweight fight
and the World Series all rolled into one.
1143
01:15:25,236 --> 01:15:27,204
Now I can see.
1144
01:15:27,638 --> 01:15:30,038
It takes a certain kind of guy.
1145
01:15:32,210 --> 01:15:35,077
And that guy
needs a certain kind of dame.
1146
01:15:36,581 --> 01:15:40,176
Mike, there goes another minute bomb.
Standing here talking, come on.
1147
01:15:40,351 --> 01:15:42,819
-Good luck.
-Thanks.
1148
01:15:49,894 --> 01:15:53,728
You've fallen hard, haven't you, Reggie?
That's too bad.
1149
01:15:53,898 --> 01:15:57,766
He's going to kill somebody today.
Himself or somebody else.
1150
01:16:03,875 --> 01:16:06,070
The cars are ready on the starting line...
1151
01:16:06,244 --> 01:16:09,145
...and in less than a minute
they'll be off on the parade lap.
1152
01:16:09,313 --> 01:16:11,713
This is the fastest field seen hereat Indianapolis.
1153
01:16:11,883 --> 01:16:15,319
Every one of these 33 cars has qualifiedat over 128 miles an hour.
1154
01:16:15,486 --> 01:16:18,319
They're all ready to goand they make quite a spectacle.
1155
01:16:18,489 --> 01:16:20,684
Watch my signals
and let me know you get them.
1156
01:16:20,858 --> 01:16:21,847
Okay. Okay.
1157
01:16:22,026 --> 01:16:24,392
We'll make your pit stops count,
in and out fast.
1158
01:16:24,562 --> 01:16:26,757
Everything's gonna be fast here today,
Mac.
1159
01:16:26,931 --> 01:16:28,558
Here we go.
1160
01:16:29,167 --> 01:16:30,759
Here, Mike.
1161
01:16:33,571 --> 01:16:37,132
There's the bomb.There they go with the pace car leading.
1162
01:16:37,875 --> 01:16:39,570
-Pour it on.
-Keep her in the groove.
1163
01:16:39,744 --> 01:16:42,212
-Show them, Mike.
-Let them hear you whistle.
1164
01:16:43,281 --> 01:16:46,876
They keep formation all the way aroundthe track, picking up speed as they go.
1165
01:16:47,051 --> 01:16:49,485
There's a million dollars' worthof fast equipment...
1166
01:16:49,654 --> 01:16:51,519
...and plenty of well-known names.
1167
01:16:51,689 --> 01:16:53,884
Three-time winner Mauri Rosein the front row.
1168
01:16:54,058 --> 01:16:56,618
Back of him, handsomeJohnnie Parsons from California.
1169
01:16:56,794 --> 01:17:00,059
There's Walt Faulkner, Jack McGrath,daredevil Joie Chitwood.
1170
01:17:00,231 --> 01:17:02,131
Stock-car champion Myron Fohr.
1171
01:17:02,300 --> 01:17:04,928
There's Mike Brannan,Ed Zang, Lou Neuhouser.
1172
01:17:05,102 --> 01:17:07,969
But go anywhere down the lineand you name a great driver.
1173
01:17:08,139 --> 01:17:10,630
One who's doing what every race driverdreams about.
1174
01:17:10,808 --> 01:17:12,469
He's out here on Decoration Day...
1175
01:17:12,643 --> 01:17:16,511
...going for 500 milesand a purse of over $ 200,000.
1176
01:17:16,681 --> 01:17:19,980
This Indianapolis classic is bigger,richer, tougher than ever before.
1177
01:17:20,151 --> 01:17:23,814
The cars are faster, the drivers more skillful.They're coming around now...
1178
01:17:23,988 --> 01:17:26,821
...rank on rank of machineskeeping beautiful formation...
1179
01:17:26,991 --> 01:17:28,925
...and picking up speed all the time.
1180
01:17:29,093 --> 01:17:32,085
You'll never see anything faster on wheelsanywhere in the world.
1181
01:17:32,263 --> 01:17:33,821
Here they come out of the turn...
1182
01:17:33,998 --> 01:17:36,364
...holding formationas they roar down the stretch.
1183
01:17:36,534 --> 01:17:40,231
The pace car begins to pull over. Thespeed's going up as they come to the line.
1184
01:17:40,404 --> 01:17:42,395
It's going to be a 100-mile-an-hour start.
1185
01:17:42,573 --> 01:17:44,131
And they're on their way.
1186
01:17:44,308 --> 01:17:48,142
A beautiful start.Wonderful sportsmanship.
1187
01:18:15,973 --> 01:18:17,838
Here they come roaring into the stretch.
1188
01:18:18,009 --> 01:18:21,069
As they hit line at the end of first lap,Mauri Rose in the lead...
1189
01:18:21,245 --> 01:18:24,305
...then comes Parsons, Duane Carter,Walt Faulkner and Ed Zang.
1190
01:18:24,482 --> 01:18:27,849
They're hitting it hard right from the start,really traveling out there.
1191
01:18:28,019 --> 01:18:30,783
This is going to bea record-smashing race.
1192
01:18:31,022 --> 01:18:33,582
Mauri Rose out ahead
at the end of the first 50 miles...
1193
01:18:33,758 --> 01:18:37,558
...his average speed,
127.53 miles per hour.
1194
01:18:37,728 --> 01:18:40,720
In second place, Parsons.Third, Neuhouser. Fourth, Ed Zang.
1195
01:18:40,898 --> 01:18:42,559
But nobody's letting them get away.
1196
01:18:42,733 --> 01:18:45,930
The boys are really bending them aroundthrough those turns.
1197
01:18:59,383 --> 01:19:02,181
There's a fight for fifth place.Jamming through the turn.
1198
01:19:02,353 --> 01:19:04,014
Number 17, that's Brannan in there.
1199
01:19:04,188 --> 01:19:07,089
Schmarfee in 16,Chuck Leighton in 22, Pete Kasso.
1200
01:19:07,258 --> 01:19:08,816
But that bunching is dangerous.
1201
01:19:08,993 --> 01:19:12,895
They know it, but they won't break it upuntil somebody gets in the clear.
1202
01:19:18,135 --> 01:19:20,126
Into the turn, Brannan's ahead of Kasso.
1203
01:19:20,304 --> 01:19:22,295
He's moving betweenSchmarfee and Leighton.
1204
01:19:22,473 --> 01:19:25,601
Barreling right on through,he's split that dogfight wide open.
1205
01:19:25,776 --> 01:19:29,507
He's in front of the bunchas they come out of the north turn.
1206
01:19:29,680 --> 01:19:32,171
They're all standing on itdown the main stretch...
1207
01:19:32,350 --> 01:19:33,977
...really carrying the mail.
1208
01:19:36,187 --> 01:19:39,520
Now it's Mauri Rose still leading,then Johnnie Parsons, Neuhouser...
1209
01:19:39,690 --> 01:19:43,387
...Ed Zang, and Mike Brannanfighting for fifth place.
1210
01:19:44,962 --> 01:19:47,931
They're running into traffic that turn,lapping slower cars.
1211
01:19:48,099 --> 01:19:51,557
Brannan, in Number 17,is moving up all the time.
1212
01:19:58,242 --> 01:20:01,268
In the north turn, Brannan is passingMack Hellings, Number 15.
1213
01:20:01,445 --> 01:20:03,504
And now he's closing in on Ed Zang.
1214
01:20:03,681 --> 01:20:07,139
And he's caught him.He's challenging Zang for fourth place.
1215
01:20:26,037 --> 01:20:28,835
Brannan's going ahead,but Zang's trying to stay with him.
1216
01:20:29,006 --> 01:20:31,804
They're both too fast,off the groove and riding wide.
1217
01:20:31,976 --> 01:20:34,001
And there, Zang smacked into the wall.
1218
01:20:34,178 --> 01:20:37,045
Brannan's going right through,but there's a mix-up out there.
1219
01:20:37,214 --> 01:20:38,272
They've locked wheels.
1220
01:20:38,449 --> 01:20:40,644
Zang bounced offand tangled with McQuinn in 44.
1221
01:20:40,818 --> 01:20:43,343
They're sliding across the track.Zang's hit the fence.
1222
01:20:43,521 --> 01:20:47,184
But he's all right. He's all right.He got out and walked away. Nobody hurt.
1223
01:20:47,558 --> 01:20:49,651
For a moment, I thought that was it.
1224
01:20:49,827 --> 01:20:52,728
-What do you mean?
-I thought Brannan rode him into the wall.
1225
01:20:52,897 --> 01:20:54,626
He didn't. Mike was way ahead of him.
1226
01:20:54,799 --> 01:20:57,768
Well, maybe that time,
but the race isn't over yet.
1227
01:20:58,536 --> 01:21:00,436
The pace is fast and it's getting faster.
1228
01:21:00,604 --> 01:21:04,597
Its 127.72 miles per hour
for the first 150 miles.
1229
01:21:04,775 --> 01:21:06,606
And that's a record for the distance.
1230
01:21:06,777 --> 01:21:10,474
Mauri Rose is still ahead
in that front-drive Offenhauser Special.
1231
01:21:10,648 --> 01:21:13,446
In second place is Lou Neuhouser
in Car Number 49.
1232
01:21:13,617 --> 01:21:16,882
Mike Brannan has just moved
into third place with Car Number 17.
1233
01:21:17,054 --> 01:21:18,919
And here he is down the main stretch.
1234
01:21:19,090 --> 01:21:22,651
Neuhouser's giving it everything,trying to stay ahead. Brannan's closing in.
1235
01:21:22,827 --> 01:21:25,489
He's right on Number 49as they go through the south turn.
1236
01:21:25,663 --> 01:21:28,257
Neuhouser's trying to hold him,really pushing that car.
1237
01:21:28,432 --> 01:21:30,559
He's staying up there.Brannan can't get by.
1238
01:21:30,734 --> 01:21:33,134
And they're both wide open.
1239
01:21:40,377 --> 01:21:42,641
They're wheel-to-wheel out there,burning rubber.
1240
01:21:42,813 --> 01:21:45,304
Brannan trying to move into second spot.
1241
01:21:53,991 --> 01:21:55,959
Brannan's taking him now.He's going ahead.
1242
01:21:56,127 --> 01:21:59,460
But wait, Neuhouser's slowing down.There's smoke pouring from that car.
1243
01:21:59,630 --> 01:22:02,622
Something let go.He couldn't stand the killing pace.
1244
01:22:02,800 --> 01:22:05,564
Well, that's all for Neuhouser.
1245
01:22:06,704 --> 01:22:08,797
Brannan's up in second placeand going away...
1246
01:22:08,973 --> 01:22:11,339
...right in the grooveand gunning for Mauri Rose.
1247
01:22:17,214 --> 01:22:19,648
Brannan's been up in the top 10right from the start.
1248
01:22:19,817 --> 01:22:22,479
-That boy's moving.
-He's really something, isn't he?
1249
01:22:22,653 --> 01:22:25,144
He's something,
but he's gotta travel to catch Rose.
1250
01:22:25,322 --> 01:22:28,416
-He'll get him.
-Time's running out here at Indianapolis.
1251
01:22:28,592 --> 01:22:32,619
As we hit 275 miles, it's still Mauri Roseout in front in Number 31.
1252
01:22:32,796 --> 01:22:36,288
He's never let up for a second,and he's driving like the wizard he is.
1253
01:22:39,703 --> 01:22:42,331
And Mike Brannan'sonly 16 seconds behind him.
1254
01:22:46,544 --> 01:22:49,206
Mauri Rose is piling uplap prize money with Number 31.
1255
01:22:49,380 --> 01:22:51,575
The leader gets $ 100every time he comes around.
1256
01:22:51,749 --> 01:22:53,944
So that's over $ 10,000 he's won already.
1257
01:22:54,118 --> 01:22:55,881
Being in the lead really pays off.
1258
01:22:56,053 --> 01:22:58,920
And here he is,completing his 275th mile.
1259
01:22:59,089 --> 01:23:02,820
The great Mauri Rose, three-time winner,now passing the stands.
1260
01:23:02,993 --> 01:23:05,860
There's a signal at his pit.Mauri's being ordered in for gas.
1261
01:23:06,030 --> 01:23:08,794
These cars can't gothe whole 500 miles without refueling...
1262
01:23:08,966 --> 01:23:11,560
...and he'll stopat the end of his next lap.
1263
01:23:12,203 --> 01:23:14,899
When Mauri Rose comes in,
that'll give Brannan the lead.
1264
01:23:15,072 --> 01:23:16,369
But he won't hold it long...
1265
01:23:16,540 --> 01:23:19,100
...because he'll have to make a pit stop
any time now.
1266
01:23:19,276 --> 01:23:22,006
Here's Brannan bringing Number 17down the main stretch.
1267
01:23:22,179 --> 01:23:25,580
He's still 16 seconds behind.And there's the signal out for Brannan.
1268
01:23:28,419 --> 01:23:31,582
-You bringing Mike in now?
-He can make time with Mauri in the pits.
1269
01:23:31,755 --> 01:23:34,417
We can make more for him here.
He's got to come in anyway.
1270
01:23:34,592 --> 01:23:37,789
We can beat Mauri's boys at this.
Let's cut down that 16-second lead.
1271
01:23:37,962 --> 01:23:41,693
When Mike comes in, let's do it right
and do it fast. Be sure it's fast.
1272
01:23:43,834 --> 01:23:46,735
Here's Rose, Number 31,coming along the grandstand stretch.
1273
01:23:46,904 --> 01:23:49,839
He's slowing right downand pulling over right now.
1274
01:23:50,007 --> 01:23:53,773
This will be something to see.The lead cars both in at the same time.
1275
01:23:53,944 --> 01:23:57,937
They're bringing the race into the pits.It's going to be a duel between mechanics.
1276
01:23:58,115 --> 01:24:01,175
Brannan's men will try to cut Mauri's time,that 16-second lead.
1277
01:24:01,352 --> 01:24:05,049
Mechanics are on the track, all ready.The Offenhauser is a front-drive car.
1278
01:24:05,222 --> 01:24:07,850
They've changed those front wheelsthat take the beating.
1279
01:24:08,025 --> 01:24:09,959
They're at the caralmost before it stops.
1280
01:24:10,394 --> 01:24:11,986
Mauri's taking a drink down there.
1281
01:24:12,162 --> 01:24:14,824
Now he's using the rest of the waterto cool himself off.
1282
01:24:14,999 --> 01:24:18,127
He needs that, it's awfully hot workleading this pack of leadfoots.
1283
01:24:18,302 --> 01:24:20,827
Mike Brannan in Number 17coming down the stretch.
1284
01:24:21,005 --> 01:24:25,203
He's pulling over, slowing down for his pit.His crew can't wait to get at the car.
1285
01:24:25,376 --> 01:24:28,971
The Brannan Special is a rear-drive,so they'll change the two outside wheels.
1286
01:24:29,146 --> 01:24:32,138
That means the same amount of workhas to be done on both cars.
1287
01:24:32,316 --> 01:24:36,150
They're keeping the motors running.And look at those mechanics go to it.
1288
01:24:36,320 --> 01:24:38,982
They're trained for fast work in the pits,just like....
1289
01:24:39,156 --> 01:24:41,420
Come on, Mac. You said in and out fast.
1290
01:24:41,592 --> 01:24:44,083
This pit stop won't hurteither Mauri Rose or Brannan.
1291
01:24:44,261 --> 01:24:45,660
They're both over a lap ahead.
1292
01:24:45,829 --> 01:24:48,730
Brannan's mechanics are very fast.One wheel's changed already.
1293
01:24:48,899 --> 01:24:51,800
They're trying to get him out aheadof Mauri Rose.
1294
01:24:51,969 --> 01:24:54,437
But it looks like Mauri's all set to go.
1295
01:24:54,605 --> 01:24:56,402
He's gassed up.The tank's overflowing.
1296
01:24:56,573 --> 01:24:57,631
They're spilling gas.
1297
01:24:57,808 --> 01:25:00,606
It's caught on fire from the hot exhaust.She's on fire!
1298
01:25:00,778 --> 01:25:03,008
Mauri's getting out.That tank could explode.
1299
01:25:03,180 --> 01:25:06,809
Fire squad's in there now, fightingwith CO2 gas, but it looks awfully bad.
1300
01:25:06,984 --> 01:25:10,181
It's the worst kind of a break for Mauri.He was all set to take off.
1301
01:25:10,354 --> 01:25:13,289
This can put him out of the race.He's been leading all the way.
1302
01:25:13,457 --> 01:25:16,449
They're beginning to kill those flames.It's gonna be all right.
1303
01:25:16,627 --> 01:25:18,322
Mauri's getting ready to go back in.
1304
01:25:18,495 --> 01:25:20,622
There he goes.This has cost him valuable time.
1305
01:25:20,798 --> 01:25:23,858
It can be the turning point of the race.They're rolling him away.
1306
01:25:24,034 --> 01:25:28,164
That motor's taking hold,and listen to him gun her as she goes.
1307
01:25:32,176 --> 01:25:34,269
Knocking home the last wheelon Brannan's car.
1308
01:25:34,445 --> 01:25:36,970
-He's all gassed up. Now he's rolling.
-Make it snappy.
1309
01:25:37,147 --> 01:25:39,581
He's back in the race,just five seconds behind Rose.
1310
01:25:39,750 --> 01:25:41,274
He gained 11 seconds in the pits.
1311
01:25:41,452 --> 01:25:44,444
I'll give you official timefor those pit stops in a few minutes.
1312
01:25:44,621 --> 01:25:47,988
And there's Brannan right behind Maurias they go through the south turn.
1313
01:25:52,029 --> 01:25:53,792
They're back and they're bearing down.
1314
01:25:54,064 --> 01:25:56,965
They've made their pit stopsand they won't stop again.
1315
01:26:00,404 --> 01:26:02,395
Brannan goes streaking right after him.
1316
01:26:15,719 --> 01:26:18,017
Mauri Rose is blazingthrough the north turn.
1317
01:26:18,188 --> 01:26:20,179
The traffic here is slowing him a little.
1318
01:26:20,357 --> 01:26:22,484
Brannan's closing that gap,moving in on him...
1319
01:26:22,659 --> 01:26:24,320
...lapping slower cars as he goes.
1320
01:26:24,495 --> 01:26:26,463
They're flat out into the main stretch.
1321
01:26:26,630 --> 01:26:28,894
Giving it everythingas they come past the stands.
1322
01:26:29,066 --> 01:26:31,125
Mauri's fighting to hold that lead.
1323
01:26:37,441 --> 01:26:40,467
They go through the south turn.Mauri Rose is still out ahead.
1324
01:26:40,644 --> 01:26:43,169
But Brannan's cutting down that leadall the time.
1325
01:27:14,111 --> 01:27:15,578
He's coming up with Mauri Rose.
1326
01:27:15,746 --> 01:27:17,805
Brannan's overtaking Number 31on the inside.
1327
01:27:17,981 --> 01:27:20,381
Brannan's right up with him.They're wheel-to-wheel.
1328
01:27:39,169 --> 01:27:43,401
They're flying along the north stretch there.Brannan's going to take him.
1329
01:27:46,677 --> 01:27:49,145
As they come down the stretch,it's Brannan in front.
1330
01:27:49,313 --> 01:27:52,908
Mike Brannan in Number 17 in the leadat the three-quarter distance.
1331
01:27:53,083 --> 01:27:56,644
He's in the number-one spot,but Mauri's not letting him get away.
1332
01:28:18,509 --> 01:28:20,568
Rose has caught Brannan
in the backstretch.
1333
01:28:20,744 --> 01:28:23,508
They go along wheel-to-wheel,
wide open, going full blast.
1334
01:28:23,680 --> 01:28:27,639
And look, look!
There's a crackup ahead of them.
1335
01:28:28,785 --> 01:28:30,480
They're sliding, blocking the track.
1336
01:28:30,654 --> 01:28:33,646
Brannan and Mauri are coming fast.
There's only room for one car.
1337
01:28:33,824 --> 01:28:36,884
Brannan pulls off the trackand Mauri goes on through.
1338
01:28:47,104 --> 01:28:50,198
There goes Mauri Rose in 31 in the clearand in the lead again.
1339
01:28:50,374 --> 01:28:53,741
Only one car could get through thereand Brannan waved Rose on...
1340
01:28:53,911 --> 01:28:56,812
...then took to the infieldand couldn't get back on the track.
1341
01:28:56,980 --> 01:28:59,346
He spun out of control thereand then he flipped.
1342
01:28:59,516 --> 01:29:02,280
What magnificent sportsmanship.
1343
01:29:02,452 --> 01:29:03,976
Caution lights are on again.
1344
01:29:04,154 --> 01:29:07,055
Yellow flags out all around the track.Everybody's slowed down.
1345
01:29:07,224 --> 01:29:09,988
The cars holding positionwhile the backstretch is cleared.
1346
01:29:10,160 --> 01:29:12,560
The drivers who spun therewere Schmarfee and Kasso.
1347
01:29:12,729 --> 01:29:15,960
They're both all right. They're helpingpush their cars off the track.
1348
01:29:16,133 --> 01:29:19,694
I'll give you the report on Brannanas soon as I get it.
1349
01:29:21,405 --> 01:29:25,000
Go pick up the pieces, Reggie.
They're all yours.
1350
01:29:35,919 --> 01:29:38,888
-Where's the hospital?
-Right over there, lady.
1351
01:29:48,031 --> 01:29:50,966
You can't go in there.
Nobody's allowed inside.
1352
01:29:53,637 --> 01:29:55,571
Okay, you go ahead.
1353
01:30:13,123 --> 01:30:15,819
I couldn't hold the car, that's all.
I lost her.
1354
01:30:15,993 --> 01:30:18,018
You pulled over to give him room.
1355
01:30:18,195 --> 01:30:21,323
I didn't give him anything.
I figured I could get back.
1356
01:30:21,498 --> 01:30:23,261
Have it your own way.
1357
01:30:23,800 --> 01:30:25,734
If I'd got back, we'd have won it.
1358
01:30:25,902 --> 01:30:28,769
Well, a man can't win
every time he starts.
1359
01:30:28,939 --> 01:30:31,965
-We'll win it next year, baby.
-Or the year after.
1360
01:30:32,142 --> 01:30:35,407
-How does it look?
-Nothing internal. He'll be all right.
1361
01:30:35,579 --> 01:30:38,070
-I was lucky.
-Mike, everything's all right now.
1362
01:30:38,649 --> 01:30:42,710
With you and that column of yours and me
and my car, we won't be together much.
1363
01:30:43,220 --> 01:30:45,882
It'll be good and exciting when we are.
1364
01:30:46,223 --> 01:30:47,690
I think you'd better go now.
1365
01:30:48,325 --> 01:30:51,988
-She don't have to go till I pass out.
-That won't be long.
1366
01:30:52,162 --> 01:30:55,131
-What's that for?
-This'll relax you.
1367
01:30:56,133 --> 01:30:59,625
It'll take a bigger one than that
to relax me now.
1368
01:31:30,400 --> 01:31:32,391
