00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:07,080
Speaker 1: Transcribed presenting Joel McCrae as Jace Pearson in Tales of

2
00:00:07,160 --> 00:00:20,399
the Texas Rangers. Tales of the Texas Rangers, authentic stories

3
00:00:20,399 --> 00:00:24,039
from their official piles Texas more than two hundred and

4
00:00:24,039 --> 00:00:27,719
sixty thousand square miles and fifty men who make up the.

5
00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:30,079
Speaker 2: Most famous and oldest law enforcement party.

6
00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:43,880
Speaker 3: In North America.

7
00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:50,479
Speaker 2: Now from the piles of the Texas Rangers come these stories.

8
00:00:50,079 --> 00:00:51,679
Speaker 4: Based on fact only.

9
00:00:51,799 --> 00:00:54,799
Speaker 2: Names, states, and places are fictitious for obvious reason.

10
00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:57,560
Speaker 5: The events themselves are a matter of record.

11
00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:05,280
Speaker 4: Case for tonite clean up.

12
00:01:16,799 --> 00:01:19,840
Speaker 6: Several years ago, the town of Kilman, Texas, boasted a

13
00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:24,359
population of slightly under three thousand inhabitants until a wildcat

14
00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:26,439
gushes started a fabulous.

15
00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:27,280
Speaker 7: New oil boom.

16
00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:29,840
Speaker 6: In a matter of months, the population rose to twelve

17
00:01:29,879 --> 00:01:33,040
thousand as drillers, roughnecks and other field personnel poured in

18
00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:37,879
and behind them like vultures came the horde of racketeers, gamblers,

19
00:01:37,879 --> 00:01:41,920
and drifters. But even organized vice was not profitable enough

20
00:01:41,959 --> 00:01:46,000
for the boss of the crime syndicate, Frankie Gennaro. Gennaro

21
00:01:46,079 --> 00:01:48,439
started to move in on the oil business itself.

22
00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:57,599
Speaker 8: Sure Paul has a lot of stunts.

23
00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:00,560
Speaker 5: Yeah, Frankie in the shack with lie.

24
00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:02,319
Speaker 8: What if we've been getting from him?

25
00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:03,560
Speaker 5: Perhaps got the figures?

26
00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:06,680
Speaker 9: Yeah, he's got four wells in production. We've been getting

27
00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:08,000
two hundred bells a day.

28
00:02:08,199 --> 00:02:10,400
Speaker 8: To watch his bafe. He's still getting plenty.

29
00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:13,719
Speaker 6: He choke the wells down, says he won't pay off anymore, and.

30
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:16,639
Speaker 8: I will say about that. You better come into her.

31
00:02:16,879 --> 00:02:23,639
Speaker 7: Okay, finger, I'm knock over it.

32
00:02:25,039 --> 00:02:26,560
Speaker 4: Hey, what's the idea for I standing here?

33
00:02:26,879 --> 00:02:27,080
Speaker 10: Oh?

34
00:02:27,159 --> 00:02:27,520
Speaker 8: Idea?

35
00:02:27,599 --> 00:02:32,759
Speaker 11: Paul, Hey, you've had some kind of misunderstanding with my boys.

36
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:36,159
Speaker 12: There's normal understanding, Gennaro. You're just not getting any more

37
00:02:36,159 --> 00:02:38,719
oil from my wells. I'm not taking any more threats

38
00:02:38,719 --> 00:02:40,199
from you or your ten horned friends.

39
00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:41,280
Speaker 4: What's what you're saying.

40
00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:43,680
Speaker 12: I'll say what I want. I'll not only say it

41
00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:45,919
to you, I'll say it to the law. It's got

42
00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:48,599
a little trigger, Paul, shoot soft to.

43
00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:51,400
Speaker 9: Me money, Get out, Get out of here before I

44
00:02:51,479 --> 00:02:52,560
fit this pipeer inch.

45
00:02:52,439 --> 00:02:53,000
Speaker 13: Over your head.

46
00:02:53,039 --> 00:02:54,080
Speaker 8: Hey, I'm shutting.

47
00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:58,159
Speaker 4: Very frank Let me go.

48
00:02:58,280 --> 00:02:59,039
Speaker 13: He's got a name.

49
00:02:59,240 --> 00:02:59,879
Speaker 14: I'm having her.

50
00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:07,360
Speaker 9: Oh he clipped me with that branch.

51
00:03:07,879 --> 00:03:10,439
Speaker 11: How they want to go against such this? I'll teach

52
00:03:10,479 --> 00:03:13,520
the other operators not to get smart. Come on Earth,

53
00:03:14,199 --> 00:03:17,879
let's get out of here.

54
00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:24,960
Speaker 6: The death of Joe Powell sealed the lips of other

55
00:03:25,039 --> 00:03:28,360
frightened oil operators, and they said nothing as Frankie Gennaro

56
00:03:28,479 --> 00:03:32,240
continued to exact tribute from the smaller private companies. But

57
00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:36,879
Powell's murder aroused special interest of the Texas Rangers. Captain

58
00:03:36,919 --> 00:03:39,080
Stinson sent for Ranger Jace Pearson.

59
00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:41,759
Speaker 7: You know what's been happening in Killman since the oil

60
00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:42,360
boom started?

61
00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:42,639
Speaker 4: Jace.

62
00:03:42,879 --> 00:03:45,199
Speaker 7: I've heard. I've got Rangers in the town, of course,

63
00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:48,520
good men, but they're too well known. We're being blocked

64
00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:50,759
all the way by people who won't talk or who

65
00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:51,680
are afraid to talk.

66
00:03:51,919 --> 00:03:54,280
Speaker 5: I've never worked at Kilmen District. I'm not known there.

67
00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:57,319
Speaker 7: That's why I sent for you. I want Kilman cleaned up,

68
00:03:57,639 --> 00:04:00,639
starting with Joe Powell's murder. But I'm a man wearing

69
00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:02,680
a badge. Won't stand a chance. You want me to

70
00:04:02,719 --> 00:04:05,759
work without one, That's right, Jase, But not alone. We

71
00:04:05,879 --> 00:04:08,719
got a new man just transferred into the company, Steve Clark.

72
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:09,840
You can work together.

73
00:04:10,759 --> 00:04:13,680
Speaker 5: You better brief me on the power and all.

74
00:04:13,479 --> 00:04:15,879
Speaker 7: We've got is in the next room and have a look.

75
00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:21,959
Here's some photographs taken at the murder scene.

76
00:04:24,319 --> 00:04:29,639
Speaker 15: Hm stabbed in the back, a belt and shirt twisted.

77
00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:31,959
Speaker 5: Though, Paul must have put up a fight before he

78
00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:32,480
went down.

79
00:04:32,639 --> 00:04:33,519
Speaker 13: He fought, all right.

80
00:04:33,879 --> 00:04:38,839
Speaker 15: Look up his wrench, Yeah, and the bloodstains and a

81
00:04:38,879 --> 00:04:41,560
few matted hairs on it. It's the same wrench that

82
00:04:41,759 --> 00:04:44,560
was next to the body, and the photos the same one.

83
00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:47,120
Paul must have hit somebody with it before he was

84
00:04:47,199 --> 00:04:49,879
killed in it looks that way. That means two or

85
00:04:49,879 --> 00:04:52,240
more men ganged up on him. He dropped one with

86
00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:54,439
a wrench and then the other one stabbed him.

87
00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:55,439
Speaker 7: That's the way I see it.

88
00:04:56,079 --> 00:04:57,519
Speaker 5: And blood on the wrench been typed.

89
00:04:57,639 --> 00:05:00,040
Speaker 7: Yeah, here's a report from the lamb at all.

90
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:07,120
Speaker 5: To type brown hair, Caucasian male.

91
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:11,240
Speaker 7: Mycrometer measurements are there too, And that's all we've got, Jess.

92
00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:14,319
Speaker 5: How about a list of undesirables hanging out and killming?

93
00:05:14,439 --> 00:05:21,519
Speaker 7: Oh yeah, I got that too. Here mostly at teddy crooks,

94
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:24,639
gamblers and musclemen. Our boys run a few out and

95
00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:25,480
new ones come in.

96
00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:28,120
Speaker 15: Must be one man at the top, though usually is,

97
00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:31,120
But which one? And a few possibilities on your list?

98
00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:31,319
Speaker 16: Here?

99
00:05:32,319 --> 00:05:34,000
Speaker 5: This one, stuts Tracy.

100
00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:37,000
Speaker 7: No, No, it's not big enough to be given the orders.

101
00:05:37,879 --> 00:05:39,079
Does he know you by sight?

102
00:05:39,439 --> 00:05:39,480
Speaker 13: No?

103
00:05:39,959 --> 00:05:42,319
Speaker 15: I just know a few of these names by reputation

104
00:05:42,439 --> 00:05:43,079
and photos.

105
00:05:43,399 --> 00:05:46,040
Speaker 7: Now here's another battle herb infield.

106
00:05:46,199 --> 00:05:49,720
Speaker 15: Yeah, I heard about him too, plenty supposed to be

107
00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:50,800
a real vinegaron.

108
00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:53,439
Speaker 7: It's tougher than the back end of a shooting gallery.

109
00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:56,079
Speaker 5: Yeah, and he's not smart enough to cover up for himself.

110
00:05:56,399 --> 00:05:59,240
Speaker 7: The only other possible boss I can see is this one,

111
00:05:59,519 --> 00:06:00,480
Frankie Neal.

112
00:06:03,199 --> 00:06:05,920
Speaker 15: You got lots of arrests and a couple of indictments,

113
00:06:05,959 --> 00:06:09,160
No convictions on the surfaces, records clean.

114
00:06:09,319 --> 00:06:12,279
Speaker 7: He always has an alibi and it always stands up.

115
00:06:13,639 --> 00:06:15,279
Speaker 5: Yes, I better get started right.

116
00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:17,959
Speaker 7: We'll go over to the barracks and I'll introduce.

117
00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:18,680
Speaker 4: You to Steve Clark.

118
00:06:19,079 --> 00:06:20,519
Speaker 7: You want to change your clothes.

119
00:06:20,279 --> 00:06:25,319
Speaker 15: Anyhow, Yeah, The first job is to locate keen in.

120
00:06:26,319 --> 00:06:28,560
You find out who's making the wheels turn. We can

121
00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:31,120
put our badges on again and move in with a horse.

122
00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:34,000
Speaker 7: The whole company will be standing by. You better warn

123
00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:35,759
the rangers in town not to let on. They know

124
00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:38,160
me well, they've been warned. You'll be treated just like

125
00:06:38,199 --> 00:06:41,639
a stranger. You have anything to report, contact me directly,

126
00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:44,800
but be careful, and you better leave your car outside

127
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:46,959
the town and just meandering on horses.

128
00:06:47,319 --> 00:06:48,000
Speaker 4: Cow polks.

129
00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:51,199
Speaker 7: Yeah, just a couple of wandering cow polks.

130
00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:00,680
Speaker 5: I met Steep Clark.

131
00:07:01,199 --> 00:07:04,000
Speaker 15: We dressed like a couple of cow pokes and parked

132
00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:05,519
our car outside of Kilmen.

133
00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:07,879
Speaker 5: It was almost midnight when we rode in.

134
00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:11,519
Speaker 15: Town was sprawled all over the map, dotted with trailers

135
00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:13,759
and crude shacks thrown together from the ken and old

136
00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:14,519
packing crates.

137
00:07:15,079 --> 00:07:17,639
Speaker 5: Despite the hour, everything was going full blast.

138
00:07:19,279 --> 00:07:20,439
Speaker 9: Sure it's booming, Jase.

139
00:07:20,759 --> 00:07:24,000
Speaker 15: Yeah, hotail down the ways looks especially lively.

140
00:07:24,519 --> 00:07:27,199
Speaker 5: But that isn't legal liquor they're taking on around here.

141
00:07:27,279 --> 00:07:28,879
Speaker 9: Yeah, I bet there is much of anything here that

142
00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:29,480
is legal.

143
00:07:30,839 --> 00:07:33,319
Speaker 5: A bunch of oil trucks coming through. You better get

144
00:07:33,319 --> 00:07:35,120
out of the way, get over, charpo, come on.

145
00:07:38,839 --> 00:07:40,639
Speaker 15: It seems to me that it's kind of late for

146
00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:42,920
him to be haul and oil ought to be a

147
00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:43,959
daytime operation.

148
00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:46,759
Speaker 12: It might be a shortage of trucks, Jash. There wasn't

149
00:07:46,759 --> 00:07:49,439
ask to be hauled, no pipelines or the refineries yet.

150
00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:50,879
Speaker 9: I think it might be hot oil.

151
00:07:51,199 --> 00:07:54,079
Speaker 5: Maybe we don't know. Why Joe Powell was killed.

152
00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:57,079
Speaker 15: But if somebody had been stealing his oil and Powell

153
00:07:57,079 --> 00:07:59,519
found out about it, we'd have a pretty good motive.

154
00:07:59,639 --> 00:08:02,879
Speaker 12: Yeah, if those trucks are hauling stolen oil, they're being

155
00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:03,920
pretty open about it.

156
00:08:04,319 --> 00:08:09,040
Speaker 5: Oh whoa boy listen to that racket?

157
00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:13,000
Speaker 15: Yeah, being pretty open about everything around there.

158
00:08:14,399 --> 00:08:16,319
Speaker 5: Come on, Clark, let's get us a room.

159
00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:18,560
Speaker 15: I want to call the captain and find out about

160
00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:30,120
these night riding trucks. Any plan we had about staying

161
00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:32,200
at the hotel was cut Shark by the desk clerk.

162
00:08:32,799 --> 00:08:34,519
Speaker 5: That wasn't a room available in the town.

163
00:08:34,879 --> 00:08:36,960
Speaker 15: We hung around for about an hour before we found

164
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:38,759
a rancher who told us we could bunk down in

165
00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:40,799
the loft of its barn outside of the town.

166
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:45,039
Speaker 9: Beating that mess up isn't gonna be easy, Jason.

167
00:08:45,159 --> 00:08:47,360
Speaker 5: It's gonna be even tougher than it looks Clark. I

168
00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:49,320
notice what happened when the sheriff and one of the

169
00:08:49,399 --> 00:08:50,720
rangers they know walked in.

170
00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:53,440
Speaker 12: Yeah, all the game and stopped five minutes before they

171
00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:56,320
got there, and all the liquor disappeared. Whoever's running that

172
00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:57,360
place knew they were coming.

173
00:08:57,480 --> 00:08:59,320
Speaker 5: I don't wonder our men haven't been able to get

174
00:08:59,360 --> 00:08:59,840
any place.

175
00:09:00,039 --> 00:09:02,240
Speaker 9: We could have stopped that place from operating. Chase, we

176
00:09:02,279 --> 00:09:03,200
saw what was going on.

177
00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:05,080
Speaker 15: I wouldn't do any good to show a badge and

178
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:09,240
shut down one spot. We gotta shut them all first,

179
00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:10,639
we gotta hook them all together.

180
00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:14,759
Speaker 9: Yeah, I guess you're right. Look over there roadside phone

181
00:09:14,799 --> 00:09:17,799
boot by that gas station. You're still gonna call Captain Stinson?

182
00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:20,360
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's a good spot. Station's blow.

183
00:09:20,519 --> 00:09:22,279
Speaker 9: I'll take the horses back off the road and away.

184
00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:32,000
Speaker 15: I got through the Captain Stinson at his home, and

185
00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:34,360
what he had to say about the trucks wasn't encouraging.

186
00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:37,600
Speaker 14: Yes, Jeeves, we had reports on the trucks we run

187
00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:38,120
every night.

188
00:09:38,519 --> 00:09:40,039
Speaker 5: Have our men ever stopped any of them?

189
00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:42,519
Speaker 4: Yes, but they seemed to be all right. Jeez.

190
00:09:42,799 --> 00:09:45,600
Speaker 14: They have receipts for everything they carrying, and the trucks

191
00:09:45,639 --> 00:09:46,799
are properly licensed.

192
00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:49,000
Speaker 15: I still can't see why they're running at night.

193
00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:51,240
Speaker 4: Neither can I, but there's no law against it.

194
00:09:51,639 --> 00:09:53,480
Speaker 15: Hasn't the Commission set a limit on the number of

195
00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:55,440
barrels each welcome pumping a day.

196
00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:57,159
Speaker 4: Is each will is allowed.

197
00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:59,360
Speaker 14: Three hundred barrels a day as long as the present

198
00:09:59,399 --> 00:10:00,080
pressure who.

199
00:10:00,639 --> 00:10:02,879
Speaker 15: Have the operator has been accounting for that much oil

200
00:10:02,919 --> 00:10:03,399
each day.

201
00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:07,679
Speaker 14: Yes, the commission keeps a careful chick. Operators report production

202
00:10:07,759 --> 00:10:10,639
of three hundred a day. The trucking company receipts shoe

203
00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:13,200
hauled you three hundred a day, and the figures at

204
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:14,600
the refinery is tally too.

205
00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:17,480
Speaker 4: It's a three way check. Jeez, I don't see how

206
00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:18,080
they compete it.

207
00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:21,080
Speaker 15: I'm still convinced that Powell's death has something to do

208
00:10:21,159 --> 00:10:23,200
with hot oil, and I can't help.

209
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:24,799
Speaker 4: You there, Jas. It's sorting your lap.

210
00:10:25,279 --> 00:10:27,279
Speaker 15: I'm hoping to match the hair the lab found on

211
00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:29,799
that wrench power used, but I need a motive to

212
00:10:29,879 --> 00:10:30,879
narrow down the field.

213
00:10:31,399 --> 00:10:32,879
Speaker 5: Twelve thousand people in town.

214
00:10:32,919 --> 00:10:35,519
Speaker 15: Make a lot of suspects, or do the best you can.

215
00:10:35,759 --> 00:10:36,200
Speaker 5: I will.

216
00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:38,919
Speaker 15: I'm sending you a list of names men we spotted

217
00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:42,159
running gambling games and selling liquor at the hotel. We'll

218
00:10:42,159 --> 00:10:44,360
have to let them run for a while till we

219
00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:45,639
move in with a big broom.

220
00:10:45,799 --> 00:10:47,799
Speaker 4: We raised dust whenever you were ready.

221
00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:56,320
Speaker 15: Three days I left Steve Clark wandering around town spotting

222
00:10:56,360 --> 00:10:59,039
the rackets while I rode through the oil field at night,

223
00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:02,039
striking up casual conversations with the pumpers. Wherever I saw

224
00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:04,360
when the night riding trucks load up and leave.

225
00:11:06,879 --> 00:11:10,679
Speaker 5: Hardy where Hardy a little bit off your trail?

226
00:11:10,759 --> 00:11:12,200
Speaker 8: Ain't you a coppol.

227
00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:18,480
Speaker 5: Just riding around wishing some of his landa's mine, and.

228
00:11:18,639 --> 00:11:20,000
Speaker 8: We all wishing the same thing.

229
00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:22,799
Speaker 11: They're just gonna have a doughnut, a little coffee, he

230
00:11:23,159 --> 00:11:25,159
want to Yeah.

231
00:11:24,639 --> 00:11:26,559
Speaker 5: If your friends on the truck didn't drink it all.

232
00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:30,399
Speaker 11: And it's they're always in too much of a hurry. Yeah,

233
00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:32,480
you can tie a horse to the derek there, he'll

234
00:11:32,519 --> 00:11:33,039
be all right.

235
00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:41,039
Speaker 15: Thanks, hey on, thanks, Yeah, at a funny hour for

236
00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:42,240
making oil pickups?

237
00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:43,759
Speaker 5: What makes the horse so late?

238
00:11:45,039 --> 00:11:45,080
Speaker 13: You?

239
00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:45,600
Speaker 8: I don't know.

240
00:11:46,399 --> 00:11:47,879
Speaker 5: They always take a full load.

241
00:11:48,879 --> 00:11:52,799
Speaker 11: Uh huh A hundred barrels a clip.

242
00:11:52,879 --> 00:11:54,039
Speaker 8: That's a full tank.

243
00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:58,039
Speaker 15: Truck and field storage tanks hold a thousand barrels each,

244
00:11:58,080 --> 00:11:58,480
don't they?

245
00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:01,399
Speaker 8: Uh huh?

246
00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:02,720
Speaker 13: What don't it? No?

247
00:12:02,879 --> 00:12:03,200
Speaker 5: Thanks?

248
00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:12,679
Speaker 15: I checked with a few more pumpers, then rode out

249
00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:14,399
to the barn where Clark and I were bunking.

250
00:12:14,759 --> 00:12:15,519
Speaker 5: I woke him up.

251
00:12:15,519 --> 00:12:19,279
Speaker 8: Oh oh oh, voted Chase.

252
00:12:19,279 --> 00:12:21,799
Speaker 5: What time is it almost six? What'd you find out?

253
00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:22,399
Speaker 8: Oh?

254
00:12:22,759 --> 00:12:25,960
Speaker 9: Stretch here they have got another flock of names. You

255
00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:27,360
can stand down to the captain here.

256
00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:27,679
Speaker 4: Yeah.

257
00:12:29,879 --> 00:12:33,120
Speaker 15: Yeah, we got just about every small timehood staked out

258
00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:35,799
everything but the headman, Chase.

259
00:12:36,399 --> 00:12:38,080
Speaker 9: I'm not so sure there is a head man.

260
00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:38,840
Speaker 4: There's gotta be.

261
00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:41,039
Speaker 15: All the racketeers stick to their own game and their

262
00:12:41,039 --> 00:12:44,240
own part of town. They're all protected by the same musclemen.

263
00:12:44,639 --> 00:12:46,159
Speaker 9: Yeah, so, so.

264
00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:47,480
Speaker 5: They belong to an organization.

265
00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:50,320
Speaker 15: Otherwise they'd be fighting among themselves, trying to move in

266
00:12:50,399 --> 00:12:50,919
on each other.

267
00:12:51,159 --> 00:12:53,200
Speaker 5: Yeah, I didn't think of that.

268
00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:55,559
Speaker 15: And dipping a finger in the oil business here too,

269
00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:56,720
I'd swear to it.

270
00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:59,440
Speaker 5: And that's big. We find a man on top of

271
00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:01,840
that as a King Kennedy entire.

272
00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:03,559
Speaker 9: Operation, well, I'll keep looking around.

273
00:13:04,039 --> 00:13:06,159
Speaker 5: No, no, let the town go for a while.

274
00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:09,039
Speaker 15: From now on, we'll concentrate on the wells. When we

275
00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:12,399
get the man responsible for killing Powell, a whole thing

276
00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:14,320
will tumble like a house of cards.

277
00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:29,000
Speaker 2: You are listening to Tales of the Texas Rangers, starring

278
00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:31,559
Joel McCrae as Ranger Jace Pearson.

279
00:13:32,519 --> 00:13:35,320
Speaker 7: Beginning one week from tomorrow, that's Sunday.

280
00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:35,639
Speaker 4: October eight.

281
00:13:36,279 --> 00:13:38,720
Speaker 2: Tales of the Texas Rangers will be heard at a

282
00:13:38,759 --> 00:13:42,840
new time. Remember our next show is Sunday, October eighth,

283
00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:47,519
one week from tomorrow. Now we continue with tonight's case

284
00:13:47,759 --> 00:13:51,039
clean Up, an authentic story from the files of the

285
00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:59,080
Texas Rangers.

286
00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:05,440
Speaker 5: We staked ourselves out of Powell's wells for two days.

287
00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:07,279
Speaker 15: We kept check around the clock on every load of

288
00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:09,559
oil it was hauled away, watching from a distance.

289
00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:11,320
Speaker 5: It was a dead end watch.

290
00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:16,200
Speaker 12: It checks out jays four wells three hundred varls each

291
00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:18,000
per day, twelve hundred varl total.

292
00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:19,440
Speaker 9: And that's what they've hauled away.

293
00:14:19,919 --> 00:14:22,200
Speaker 15: Yeah, but since we've been here, nothing's been hauled from

294
00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:22,919
Powell's wells.

295
00:14:22,919 --> 00:14:23,320
Speaker 5: At night.

296
00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:24,919
Speaker 9: Yeah, you're gonna keep watching them.

297
00:14:24,879 --> 00:14:26,519
Speaker 15: Just for the night so we can measure the flow

298
00:14:26,519 --> 00:14:28,679
from the wells. You can keep the pumper busy for

299
00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:30,559
a while at nine o'clock while I run a tape

300
00:14:30,559 --> 00:14:31,679
gauge into the storage tank.

301
00:14:31,759 --> 00:14:33,200
Speaker 9: We'll have to check them again later and.

302
00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:35,799
Speaker 15: I'll wander up and keep the pumper busy around three am.

303
00:14:36,039 --> 00:14:38,679
Then you can make the second check. We compare our figures,

304
00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:40,559
and we don't know if those wells are really choked

305
00:14:40,559 --> 00:14:42,639
for three hundred barrels each or if they're pumping more

306
00:14:42,679 --> 00:14:54,320
in the legal quota. Ok is, let's hope it works.

307
00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:58,120
Speaker 5: We made the check, but we didn't have to do

308
00:14:58,200 --> 00:14:58,799
much figuring.

309
00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:01,480
Speaker 15: The wells were on the No, those three hundred barrels

310
00:15:01,519 --> 00:15:03,360
a day each, not a drop more.

311
00:15:05,919 --> 00:15:08,799
Speaker 12: Ah, that's it is, And the refinery reports show that

312
00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:09,639
it's all going through.

313
00:15:10,080 --> 00:15:11,679
Speaker 9: There's no hot oil to be accounted for.

314
00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:14,799
Speaker 5: Well, it was a thought. Let's get the horses and

315
00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:15,279
the turn in.

316
00:15:15,519 --> 00:15:20,120
Speaker 12: Yeah, guess pole just happened to brush somebody the wrong way. Yeah,

317
00:15:20,279 --> 00:15:22,519
at oral ago with a hell plenty too bad.

318
00:15:23,159 --> 00:15:26,120
Speaker 5: Hey, wait a minute, it's a car coming.

319
00:15:26,679 --> 00:15:26,879
Speaker 13: Hey.

320
00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:29,440
Speaker 8: Yeah, if you turn up the road tow that.

321
00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:32,440
Speaker 5: Rigging over The rigging isn't lit. Nobody's working there with

322
00:15:32,519 --> 00:15:33,320
a dry hole.

323
00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:33,919
Speaker 4: Get ahold.

324
00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:36,120
Speaker 17: Yeah, his lights will sweep this way when he turns.

325
00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:43,799
They stopped at the dry hole, all right. Yeah, and look,

326
00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:46,960
howls pumpers walking across the field to meet him. Yeah,

327
00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:48,720
they're going up to the knowledge house on the rig.

328
00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:51,159
It's a funny place to be holding a meeting at

329
00:15:51,159 --> 00:15:53,279
this time of ninety. It's a since they don't want

330
00:15:53,279 --> 00:15:55,840
to be seen that. Pumper knows more, and he told us,

331
00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:59,159
come on, what's the plan. Yes, maybe we can slip

332
00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:02,159
under the plank the rigging without them seeings. We can

333
00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:04,360
get under the knowledge house. We may learn a few

334
00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:16,200
things through the floorboards, crept through the money channel that

335
00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:16,960
drained into.

336
00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:17,440
Speaker 8: The slush pit.

337
00:16:17,639 --> 00:16:20,200
Speaker 5: We got under the knowledge house. We were hidden, but

338
00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:21,240
we could hear them.

339
00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:25,519
Speaker 10: Start making pickups again the borrow I here, why not?

340
00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:29,039
Lets you think you're gonna pick I can't do it.

341
00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:32,879
Speaker 3: You know power keys the jokes before before the before

342
00:16:33,039 --> 00:16:33,639
his accident.

343
00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:37,519
Speaker 9: Yeah, all right, so how can I give you any

344
00:16:37,679 --> 00:16:39,039
or well, we're only.

345
00:16:38,879 --> 00:16:39,879
Speaker 4: Pumping regular quoters.

346
00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:42,720
Speaker 10: Have the chokes changed again, so they pump a little

347
00:16:42,759 --> 00:16:44,679
like I can't not without miss Palett.

348
00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:46,919
Speaker 4: Okay, I'm working for her now.

349
00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:48,000
Speaker 8: Maybe you didn't hear me.

350
00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:52,200
Speaker 4: I said change a choke. Oh I'm a freid stunt.

351
00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:53,679
Speaker 8: Must be stunts, Tracy Jason.

352
00:16:53,759 --> 00:16:56,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, don't you look at me like the sus You

353
00:16:56,519 --> 00:16:57,480
know I'm on the spot.

354
00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:00,200
Speaker 10: Listen you, we've got the operators in this big you're

355
00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:02,759
lined up. We don't intend to have any trouble with

356
00:17:02,879 --> 00:17:04,200
a wise guy humper.

357
00:17:05,039 --> 00:17:09,039
Speaker 13: No, wait a minute, stops, wait a minute, what what what?

358
00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:12,519
Speaker 4: What do you have just to make you think that's

359
00:17:12,599 --> 00:17:16,039
only a sample? Maybe you'd like what Paul got.

360
00:17:16,079 --> 00:17:18,480
Speaker 13: I don't talk like that. I'll do what you say.

361
00:17:19,039 --> 00:17:20,000
Speaker 9: Just tell me what you want me to do.

362
00:17:20,279 --> 00:17:24,160
Speaker 10: I've already told you the trucks will roll tomorrow night. Yeah,

363
00:17:24,759 --> 00:17:30,519
down this and fun, don't forget Yeah tomorrow.

364
00:17:31,279 --> 00:17:33,319
Speaker 17: He knows what happened to Paul Jase. Let's grab him.

365
00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:37,200
He no, stay down, He's not that heap man. And

366
00:17:37,279 --> 00:17:39,839
I wonder why we haven't been seeing him around. Wish

367
00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:42,200
I could have gotten a look at his face. His

368
00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:43,359
voice sounded familiar.

369
00:17:43,519 --> 00:17:45,480
Speaker 5: Man, you've seen munkle shots something and the photos we

370
00:17:45,599 --> 00:17:46,279
have here.

371
00:17:47,039 --> 00:17:48,279
Speaker 8: A fella with the broken nose.

372
00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:50,720
Speaker 5: That's right. Have you seen him around?

373
00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:51,319
Speaker 16: Yeah?

374
00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:55,640
Speaker 8: I think I have. Humper's leaving.

375
00:17:57,359 --> 00:17:57,720
Speaker 5: All right?

376
00:17:58,079 --> 00:17:58,519
Speaker 4: How about it?

377
00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:00,480
Speaker 5: You've seen stunts, I wanted to say.

378
00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:02,880
Speaker 9: After nor at the hotel, he was talking to Frankie Gennaro.

379
00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:04,559
Speaker 5: And that's the first time either of us has seen

380
00:18:04,599 --> 00:18:05,440
him since we've been here.

381
00:18:05,559 --> 00:18:06,759
Speaker 9: I heard him talking to Gennaro.

382
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:08,839
Speaker 5: He said he'd been up to Big d in Dallas.

383
00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:11,200
What was he up there for? Well, that wasn't mentioned.

384
00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:13,599
Speaker 9: They didn't talk much. All I know is that Stutch

385
00:18:13,759 --> 00:18:14,400
just got back.

386
00:18:14,599 --> 00:18:15,599
Speaker 8: He'd been gone two weeks.

387
00:18:16,519 --> 00:18:21,559
Speaker 5: Come on, we can get out of here now gone

388
00:18:21,599 --> 00:18:22,079
two weeks?

389
00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:22,359
Speaker 10: Huh?

390
00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:24,839
Speaker 5: In other words, since Powell got killed?

391
00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:26,400
Speaker 9: Yeah, what do you make out of that?

392
00:18:26,519 --> 00:18:26,799
Speaker 8: Jason?

393
00:18:27,039 --> 00:18:29,519
Speaker 15: Maybe he doesn't know just something about Powell's murder. I

394
00:18:29,559 --> 00:18:31,759
got a hunt he was in on it. Powell clipped

395
00:18:31,759 --> 00:18:34,480
one of his attackers with that pipe wrench. Remember, must

396
00:18:34,519 --> 00:18:35,200
have left the mark.

397
00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:37,279
Speaker 12: And if Stut's had that mark, he wouldn't hang around

398
00:18:37,279 --> 00:18:38,599
and give people a chance to notice it.

399
00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:41,079
Speaker 15: Because Eddie two weeks had just to be about long

400
00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:43,559
enough for a scar that he'l over. We've got to

401
00:18:43,559 --> 00:18:45,400
get a sample of Stutt's hair to match with a

402
00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:47,279
hair sample's lamb got off that wrench.

403
00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:48,160
Speaker 9: But how do we get that?

404
00:18:48,519 --> 00:18:50,359
Speaker 15: You can get our hands on a comb or brush

405
00:18:50,559 --> 00:18:53,680
anything he's used on his head. First, we gotta find

406
00:18:53,839 --> 00:18:55,720
him bad. He may have headed back to the hotel.

407
00:18:55,799 --> 00:18:58,240
That's a favorite hangar. Now we'll try it on the

408
00:18:58,279 --> 00:19:00,759
way into town. I want to call it captain. Yeah,

409
00:19:02,559 --> 00:19:06,119
come on, come on, goead, what are you gonna call

410
00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:09,519
cap'n Pall find out who owns the trucks haul in

411
00:19:09,559 --> 00:19:12,240
the oil and what refinery they're going to see if

412
00:19:12,279 --> 00:19:14,559
we can hook the ownership up with any of the

413
00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:18,279
people we've been watching here. Why because records have been

414
00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:19,400
falsified to cover.

415
00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:20,000
Speaker 5: That hot oil.

416
00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:22,240
Speaker 15: We find out who's changing them, and we'll know who

417
00:19:22,319 --> 00:19:24,680
Stuts is working for and who killed Powell.

418
00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:26,440
Speaker 9: Jay's hot oil won't prove murder.

419
00:19:26,799 --> 00:19:26,839
Speaker 13: No.

420
00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:29,839
Speaker 15: Once we link Stuts as an accomplice in the murder,

421
00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:33,200
I got a feeling he'll squeal like a pig caught.

422
00:19:33,039 --> 00:19:33,720
Speaker 4: Under a gate.

423
00:19:39,319 --> 00:19:41,680
Speaker 15: I made my call to Captain Stintson. He arranged to

424
00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:44,359
have the trucks followed the ownership check. Then Clark and

425
00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:46,680
I headed for the hotel, where business was going on

426
00:19:46,799 --> 00:19:47,319
as usual.

427
00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:53,039
Speaker 9: There is Jas at the counter using it as a bob.

428
00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:57,119
Speaker 15: Uh curb Enfield and Frankie Gennaro. There's a trio of

429
00:19:57,160 --> 00:19:58,519
the Ward and Princetow would.

430
00:19:58,359 --> 00:19:58,759
Speaker 4: Love to have.

431
00:19:59,000 --> 00:19:59,960
Speaker 9: Well, maybe he'll get him the.

432
00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:02,160
Speaker 4: Well what do we do?

433
00:20:02,279 --> 00:20:04,000
Speaker 9: Just wait around until Stets combs his hair.

434
00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:08,480
Speaker 5: Look on the steward beside him. Huh oh, he's head.

435
00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:09,279
Speaker 13: Is it is?

436
00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:11,119
Speaker 9: That's the one he was wearing when I saw him

437
00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:11,680
this afternoon.

438
00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:12,119
Speaker 4: Good.

439
00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:14,839
Speaker 15: There'll be enough hair strands, and there are little clippings

440
00:20:14,839 --> 00:20:16,400
in the band to tell us what we want to know.

441
00:20:16,759 --> 00:20:17,640
Speaker 9: Jase, how do we get it?

442
00:20:17,799 --> 00:20:20,079
Speaker 5: And I call for a drinking crowd and you just

443
00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:21,160
grab it from the fade.

444
00:20:21,279 --> 00:20:22,279
Speaker 9: Want me to take it back to the.

445
00:20:22,279 --> 00:20:25,200
Speaker 15: Board now, there's a small airfield near the next time,

446
00:20:25,559 --> 00:20:27,359
get it over there and call the Austin Lab and

447
00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:29,960
have it picked up. They can report to Captain Stinson

448
00:20:30,319 --> 00:20:31,839
when I call him in the morning. He should have

449
00:20:32,039 --> 00:20:33,720
enough for us to start dropping the net.

450
00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:43,079
Speaker 4: I've got the lab report, Geez, Scots Tracy is the

Speaker 4: We checked on her. Jeez, she's Franky Grenierro's girlfriend.

459
00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:02,119
Speaker 5: That does it? When are you coming in?

00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:31,759
Speaker 15: Stuts, I got something to show you. Ever seen anything

498
00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:34,440
like this before? Take a look at this photograph?

499
00:23:35,079 --> 00:23:35,519
Speaker 13: What is it?

500
00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:39,039
Speaker 15: Just a couple of hairs. One on the left came

501
00:23:39,119 --> 00:23:43,079
from your hat. We borrowed it last night. What's idea?

502
00:23:43,279 --> 00:23:46,079
Speaker 5: The hair on the right is just like it, exactly

00:23:46,319 --> 00:23:46,519
like it.

504
00:23:47,240 --> 00:23:49,480
Speaker 15: That came from a bloody wrench we found beside the

505
00:23:49,559 --> 00:23:50,599
body of Joe Powell.

506
00:23:51,079 --> 00:23:53,039
Speaker 5: Paul hit you with that wrench, Stuts, and then.

00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:56,440
Speaker 15: You killed him, huh us never even near that hair,

508
00:23:56,519 --> 00:23:58,359

509
00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:01,559
Speaker 4: But I didn't kill him. You were there. You know

Speaker 5: Gennaro is the boss. Then, yeah, he's got to hide

515
00:24:18,759 --> 00:24:19,359

Speaker 5: Well, let's start with the killing of Joe Powell.

554
00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:14,960
Speaker 11: I can prove I was someplace else when Paul was killed.

555
00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:18,599
Speaker 8: Herban Stuts and I were playing cards with three other men.

556
00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:19,359
Speaker 9: All night long.

557
00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:20,839
Speaker 5: Not this time, Janetta.

558
00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:24,119
Speaker 15: I mean, we've already proven where Stuts was and he's

559
00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:25,240
made a full confession.

560
00:26:25,839 --> 00:26:29,480
Speaker 5: There'll be no alibis this time. Don't move, Gennaro, I got.

561
00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:33,119
Speaker 8: We don't want to fight.

562
00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:37,559
Speaker 15: Couldn't fool around with a gun. Herb, knife in the

563
00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:38,839
back is your specialty.

564
00:26:41,119 --> 00:26:43,319
Speaker 8: Glad to see you know that I didn't kill Paul.

565
00:26:43,759 --> 00:26:47,079
Speaker 5: Sure, Gennaro, you're the boy with the brains. You don't

566
00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:48,559
do the work you order it.

567
00:26:49,319 --> 00:26:50,960
Speaker 8: That's something you can't prove.

568
00:26:51,279 --> 00:26:54,640
Speaker 5: No, you don't think Herb is gonna take all the blame,

569
00:26:54,759 --> 00:26:54,960
do you.

570
00:26:55,240 --> 00:27:00,440
Speaker 9: You're not gonna set me up tonight, Lawyer.

571
00:27:00,839 --> 00:27:03,640
Speaker 5: I can understand that I never saw a fellow and

572
00:27:03,759 --> 00:27:04,519
needed one more.

573
00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:23,240
Speaker 6: All right, Get moved, Frankie, Gennaro, and Herb Enfield were

574
00:27:23,279 --> 00:27:26,920
sentenced to life terms at Huntsville. Stuts Tracy was given

575
00:27:27,039 --> 00:27:30,119
fifty years, and lesser offenders and the Kilmen cleanup were

576
00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:32,559
given sentences of from one to five years.

577
00:27:33,440 --> 00:27:35,200
Speaker 7: Those who were released without being.

578
00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:37,519
Speaker 6: Charged left the town of Kilmen quickly.

579
00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:40,880
Speaker 7: And quietly, the cleanup was complete.

580
00:27:52,079 --> 00:27:54,519

00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:31,720
this time, Dennis Day returns to the air.

601
00:29:32,359 --> 00:29:35,519
Speaker 11: Dennis Day's comedy is always refreshing because he appears so

602
00:29:35,759 --> 00:29:36,759
timid and bewildered.

603
00:29:37,039 --> 00:29:39,319
Speaker 12: But one thing that doesn't bewildered Dennis is how to

604
00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:42,000
sing a popular ballad or rhythmical Nowaday, So.

605
00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:44,880
Speaker 11: For comedy and songs, it's Dennis Day at this time

606
00:29:45,039 --> 00:29:48,240
next Saturday. That day also marks the return of The

607
00:29:48,359 --> 00:29:52,720
