01:02yeah
01:04yeah
01:40All right, everybody, please, you're all gonna have to step back.
01:44Stop your pushin' now.
01:46Stop pushin'.
01:47Back away now.
01:48Sorry, folks, can't come no closer.
01:51Say, Tom, is that what they call a balloon?
01:52Yes, sir, sure is.
01:53Is it busted?
01:54Can it still fly?
01:55No reason why not.
01:56Come on.
01:57It can.
01:58Now, how can that thing go up in the air?
02:00Mr. O'Connor says so.
02:01And who is this Mr. O'Connor fella?
02:04Mr. Arthur O'Connor, the man who came down in the balloon.
02:07And you believe him?
02:08Well, I got no reason not to.
02:10Now, Tom, Mr. O'Connor got hurt when he landed, didn't he?
02:13Yes, but not bad.
02:14I think this accident was an omen as a warning to him.
02:17Huh?
02:18Yep.
02:18He trespassed against the Almighty.
02:21Heaven belongs to God and his angels.
02:23No.
02:24Huh?
02:24Heaven, but not the sky.
02:26Man can sail the open seas and rivers, and I don't believe there's any reason why he shouldn't
02:30be able to sail across the sky just like the birds if he can find a way to do it.
02:34Blasphemy!
02:35Oh, please don't touch anything, otherwise I'll get into trouble.
02:38Huh?
02:38Oh, uh, I'm sorry.
02:41Huck, you get a chance to talk to the man who flew in that contraption?
02:43Just a little.
02:44What do you say it felt like to be flying around up in the clouds?
02:47I didn't get a chance to talk to him much.
02:50Mr. O'Connor and the Sheriff went off to take care of some business, and they asked me and Tom
02:53to watch the balloon.
02:54It's like this.
02:56We got orders not to let anybody come near this thing.
02:59Why'd they ask you and Tom to stay on guard?
03:01Well, I don't rightly know, Joe, except an Arthur asked us.
03:04Except an who?
03:05Who's Arthur?
03:06Uh, Arthur is Mr. Arthur O'Connor, the man who came here in this balloon.
03:10Step back!
03:11No more questions!
03:12Please, everybody, y'all are gonna have to step back.
03:21There, this should explain everything.
03:27Pat, listen.
03:28This is to go to the Army Ordnance Laboratory in Chicago.
03:33I'm much obliged for you taking it.
03:35It's important for us to get it there as soon as possible, so you'll have to ride hard and fast.
03:39Don't you worry, I'll get it there.
03:41About how long do you think it'll take you?
03:43The sooner the better.
03:44Well, I'll do my best, and I'll try to ride all night.
03:48Tomorrow night, maybe?
03:50Oh, no, sir, not that quick.
03:51Maybe the day after tomorrow, but it might get there sooner by stagecoats from Springfield.
03:56Hmm, you better take whatever route you think is best.
03:59Is there anything else I oughta know, sir?
04:01Let me see.
04:02Yes, when you arrive at the laboratory, ask to see a Captain Bond, he's the chief of the balloon squadron,
04:08or a Dr. Masterson, who's the designer and chief engineer on the project.
04:12In my letter, I didn't go into many details, only that I was caught by a gust of wind.
04:17Tell them more, and answer whatever questions they may have about my mishap.
04:20I understand.
04:22Sheriff Collins, I'm off to Chicago.
04:24Good luck and godspeed.
04:26Oh, Pat, wait.
04:28Of course, they'll know I'm alive because of the letter, but be sure to tell them I'm also in good
04:33spirits, will ya?
04:34I'll tell them, Mr. O'Connor, but you had better be seeing a doctor pretty soon, because your forehead's starting
04:39to bleed again.
04:40He's right.
04:41Is it?
04:44Well, I'm off.
04:47Wait, I'll see you off.
04:54Sheriff, that fella's hurting a lot more than he's letting on.
04:57You ought to be sure he sees a doctor.
04:59I will, Pat.
04:59Thanks.
05:02T'ya!
05:14Huh?
05:15Mr. O'Connor?
05:16Mr. O'Connor?
05:18Are you out of here?
05:18You all right?
05:19Please, Sheriff, there's no need to worry.
05:21I'm just tired, that's all.
05:23There's gotta be more than tiredness.
05:25You've been floating through the air for more than seven hours.
05:27I can't imagine such a thing.
05:28And you had a hard landing, too.
05:30I gotta admit, this is the first time I've ever made such a long flight in the air.
05:34Uh, maybe it has an effect on people we don't know anything about.
05:38All the more reason to see the doc.
05:39Doc, you shouldn't be taking any unnecessary chances on your health.
05:43Doc Mitchell's office is the closest.
05:45I think I'll send you there.
05:46But, Sheriff, I have work to do at the landing site.
05:49I know that.
05:50Well, while you're at the doctor's office, I'll make arrangements for the ropes and stakes to be put in place
05:54so you can salvage your balloon.
05:56Now, to get to Doc Mitchell's office, turn right outside the door, and it's about 50 yards down.
06:00Dr. Mitchell's office.
06:02Dr. Mitchell.
06:04Should be just about here.
06:08Ah, this is the place.
06:13Oh.
06:15I'm sorry.
06:16I beg your pardon.
06:17You are too kind.
06:19It is I who should apologize.
06:21I'm so embarrassed.
06:23You shouldn't.
06:24Please, don't be.
06:25Oh.
06:26Excuse me.
06:27Could you tell me if the doctor's in?
06:29Yes, he is.
06:31But what is your complaint?
06:32Your forehead.
06:33I got pains and bruises all over.
06:35I was involved in a crash landing of my balloon.
06:39Oh, you're the one.
06:41Please do come in.
06:42The doctor will see you.
06:44Thanks.
06:46Are you sure it's all right?
06:48I don't have an appointment.
06:49It's fine.
06:52Excuse me, Dr. Mitchell.
06:55Ah, Mary.
06:56Thought you were going out to the balloon site.
06:58I was, but it seems our next patient is the gentleman who crash landed the balloon.
07:03He's pretty bruised up, Dr. Mitchell.
07:05Well, show the gentleman in.
07:08The doctor will see you now.
07:11Come in, please.
07:12Hello, son.
07:13I'm Dr. Mitchell.
07:15Thanks for seeing me, Dr. Mitchell.
07:17You just have a seat on that bed and let's have a look at you.
07:20Sheriff Collins referred me to you.
07:22However, I must confess I don't have any money to pay your fees.
07:25That's all right.
07:27I was flying since early morning until my unexpected accident.
07:30It was quite a crash.
07:32Most excitement we've had around here in a long time.
07:35Well, doesn't look too bad.
07:36Nothing seems to be broken.
07:38I'll just clean up that cut on your forehead, put on some disinfectant and a bandage.
07:42When I landed in the tree, I think I struck my head on a limb.
07:45That's a pretty bad gash, I'm afraid.
07:47Mary, bring me the disinfectant.
07:49Yes, sir.
07:50Doesn't look bad enough for stitches, though.
07:52You haven't been experiencing any dizzy spells, have you?
07:54No, just a little sore all over.
07:57Mary, I need that disinfectant.
07:59Uh...
07:59Hurry.
08:00I'm looking.
08:05Oh, uh...
08:06Dr. Mitchell, I'm sorry.
08:07But which one is the bottle of disinfectant?
08:10Oh, that's right.
08:11You aren't familiar with my labeling system yet, are you?
08:13The disinfectant is kept over here on this side.
08:18You just have to know where to look.
08:20Yes, sir.
08:22Now, I warn you, when I apply this disinfectant,
08:26it may smart a little, but that means it's doing what it's supposed to do,
08:29so you'll just have to grin and bear it.
08:31Uh, Doc, that does a lot more than smart.
08:35It burns.
08:37Shouldn't hurt nearly that much.
08:39Oh, Doc, the pain is unbearable.
08:41Easy.
08:42This is odd.
08:45What?
08:46This isn't disinfectant.
08:47This is alcohol.
08:48Oh, that hurt worse than my crash landing.
08:50I apologize for the mix-up, young man.
08:52It should never have happened.
08:54Mary, would you be kind enough to see if you can find the bottle of disinfectant?
08:57Yes, Doctor.
08:59By the way, Doctor, my name is Arthur O'Connor.
09:01Nice to meet you, Mr. O'Connor.
09:04This it?
09:06Yes, that's it.
09:07No chance it could be something else.
09:09Mary's only been here a short time.
09:10Her mistake is understandable.
09:12But, Doctor, you're the one who grabbed the bottle of alcohol in the first place.
09:15Hmm?
09:16Well, guess I did at that.
09:20Must have made an awful racket here.
09:22It sure did.
09:22As soon as I heard, I ran outside and I caught a glimpse of you about over there.
09:26I was coming down pretty quick.
09:28I ended up landing over there at a place called Cardiff Hill.
09:31You were very lucky to land in a tree. It broke your fall.
09:34To tell the truth, I thought for sure I was a goner.
09:36Of course, when I hit my head, I was knocked out for a while.
09:38But when I came to, I realized it could have been a whole lot worse than it was.
09:42Hmm.
09:44Anyway, then a couple of lads came along to help me.
09:46I think that they said their names were Tom and Huck.
09:48That doesn't surprise me.
09:50Why? Do you know Tom and Huck?
09:51For all intents and purposes, Tom is my little brother.
09:54What do you mean by that?
09:56Actually, he's my cousin.
09:57You see, after Tom's parents died, we were his only surviving relatives.
10:01So naturally, he came to live with us.
10:03I see. Gee, that's too bad.
10:05I have to tell you, though, Tom seems to know quite a bit about balloons.
10:09Matter of fact, I was rather surprised to find him so taken with flying.
10:12You should be proud of him. So young and so knowledgeable. He's a bright boy.
10:16Are we talking about the same Tom?
10:18As far as I know, my brother Tom doesn't read all that many books, even when he's told to.
10:24One thing I will say for him, he sure has an adventurous spirit.
10:28Flying can satisfy that spirit.
10:33Eh, put him there with the rest.
10:38You'll stick around and do whatever's needed, won't you, Bella?
10:40Sure am. You betcha.
10:44Ah, here comes Mr. O'Connor.
10:48Oh, Arthur. Look at that. You were really lucky.
10:52You can say that again. Sometimes I shudder to imagine what might have happened if I had landed in the
10:57Mississippi River.
10:58Don't you know how to swim?
11:00Sure, but even if I survived landing in the river, the balloon wouldn't.
11:03It would have sunk to the bottom, and a lot of people's hard work, hopes, and dreams would have been
11:07lost.
11:08Everything ready, Sheriff?
11:09Just about.
11:11Hello, Sheriff Collins. How are you?
11:12Well, I'm very nice to see you.
11:14Mr. O'Connor, you certainly didn't waste any time meeting the prettiest lady in St. Pete, now, did you?
11:19Sheriff, you're embarrassing me. Excuse me.
11:24Tom!
11:24I'd say she likes you.
11:28The ropes and stakes are all in place for you.
11:31Thank you, Sheriff. I really do appreciate all the help you've given to me.
11:35You're mighty welcome, but around here, there are lots of folks who'll be willing to help.
11:39Oh, by the way, how'd you happen to meet Mary Sawyer?
11:41Well, that's funny. I just happened to be looking for the doctor's office in town.
11:47Mary, the man's a complete stranger.
11:50Mother, he's nice.
11:51But inviting him to be a house guest? You just met him today.
11:55Mary, what on earth were you thinking about?
11:57His name is Mr. O'Connor. He's from Chicago.
12:00Chicago?
12:00He's the gentleman who came down the balloon this morning.
12:03Gentleman or not, he can get a room at the hotel just like anybody else.
12:06Well, he would, Mother, but I'm afraid he doesn't have any money.
12:09Then he's no gentleman.
12:10Mother, he isn't a vagrant.
12:12This morning, an unexpected gust of wind took him and his balloon into the air
12:16and he drifted until he landed here in St. Pete.
12:27Make sure the lines are tight.
12:32Okay, Huck, tie her down.
12:35Tied up real secure now.
12:37Here, let me give you a hand.
12:39All right, tie that off.
12:40Get your hand out of there.
12:41Secure it.
12:41I'm out of the way, I'm out of the way.
12:42There you go.
12:44Good.
12:45Secure?
12:45It's secure.
12:46There, that ought to hold her no matter how hard the wind may howl.
12:49Good.
12:51We're finished.
12:52I want to thank you and everybody.
12:54You all worked hard and I want you to know I appreciate it a lot.
12:57How come we tied it down laying on its side like this?
13:00Why is that so much better?
13:01Why couldn't we just tie the basket down real good?
13:04The balloon couldn't fly away then, could it?
13:07Whether it's laying on its side or not doesn't make any difference, Tom.
13:10The balloon just doesn't have the power to float in the air without activating the burner.
13:14I don't understand.
13:15It can't fly because the air inside the balloon is cooled and the air has to be hot to fly.
13:19How does the air being hot make it float in the air?
13:22Well, do any of you know about science, especially physics?
13:27Well, I sure as heck don't.
13:28Me either.
13:29Do you?
13:29Never heard of it.
13:31Well, if you study physics, one of the first things you'll learn is that air has a tendency to become
13:36lighter after it's heated.
13:38Hmm. Air is lighter after it's warmed up.
13:41So that means...
13:43I get it. That's why the balloon can fly, because it's lighter than the air.
13:46It is?
13:47Spread it to me, Tom.
13:48Uh...
13:49Yes.
13:49It's something that does take study.
13:51Excuse me, Mr. O'Connor, are you finished?
13:54Yes, I am.
13:55Why, Sheriff?
13:56I'd like to invite you to join me and the missus for supper.
13:58That's very kind of you, Sheriff, but I have to decline your invitation.
14:02You see, I have a previous engagement for dinner this evening.
14:05A previous engagement?
14:06Hmm.
14:14Hey, what about the balloon?
14:16Yeah, what about it?
14:17Well, are you just gonna leave it laying out there?
14:20At the moment, that's about all it's good for, Tom, but we'll see.
14:24Oh, I guess I'll never get the chance to fly.
14:28Well, would you care to make a suggestion?
14:30If you could just get it to fly, I sure would like to go up with you the next time.
14:35That's impossible without being able to heat the air.
14:37But there's gotta be a way we could heat it up somehow.
14:40There is, but it'd be very hard to do.
14:43Arthur, Arthur, wait.
14:44You just gotta fly the balloon again so you can take me up in it with you.
14:48Please, Arthur, if it's the last thing I ever do, I gotta fly.
14:52I can't explain, but I have to do it.
14:57My, isn't that interesting?
15:00But if you flew the thing here from Chicago, I don't understand why you can't just get in it and
15:04fly right back again.
15:06Well, Mrs. Sawyer, I'm sorry to say we haven't yet figured out a way to steer balloons, though I'm sure
15:11we will one day.
15:12You see, my coming to St. Pete was as much a fate of the winds as anything else.
15:16I had no control over my direction of flight.
15:19Why, that's like being in a ship without a rudder.
15:22Yes, ma'am. As I said, it's a problem, but we're working on it and someday we'll find a way
15:26to steer them.
15:28You're a scientist, aren't you? You'll think of some way to do it.
15:31Funny you should mention that, Tom, because I've been giving it a lot of thought, especially on this trip.
15:35I experimented. I tried everything.
15:38I pulled on one rope and then another, then I even tried yanking on the tether, you know?
15:44I'm sorry. Uh, I guess I got a little carried away. Hmm. Well, what I'm trying to say is that
15:52I did manage to alter its course somewhat.
15:54Just a little bit, mind you, but it's a beginning.
15:57Wow, you're really something.
15:59But I don't have any idea how I did it. When I saw Cardiff Hill, I thought, better land over
16:04there.
16:05It looked like the safest place to come down, and though it was a struggle, I know the balloon responded.
16:09So, it wasn't merely an accident that I landed on Cardiff Hill.
16:14Then you do know how to guide it.
16:16I can't seem to remember that part.
16:18Gee, that's too bad.
16:20All isn't lost. At least now I know it's possible to steer a balloon, and with some experimentation and maybe
16:25some design changes, we'll achieve that goal.
16:28Why, Mary, thank you.
16:30Then anybody could go up in a balloon and just fly around, wherever they want.
16:34Not quite, Tom. Besides, I still have to consult with Dr. Masterson on the design.
16:38Why, is Dr. Masterson a balloon designer?
16:41Mm-hmm.
16:42Do you mind if I ask you a question?
16:44Shoot.
16:45What does the Army use balloons for when all they can do is go up in the air?
16:49Well, I'm not really sure about that. Let's see.
16:55For one, they could spy on enemy positions at a distance from the air using telescopes. That's a way they
17:00could use them.
17:00But what if the enemy soldiers shot holes in the balloon? Wouldn't that make them explode and come crashing down?
17:07You're absolutely right. The balloon would have to be high enough so the enemy bullets couldn't hit it.
17:13But the balloon would have to be way up in the clouds. How would you get it down?
17:16That's easy, Tom. By letting air out of the balloon or by simply cooling off the air.
17:22Yes, but what if you couldn't make it cool off enough?
17:24Tom, mind your manners. If you don't stop asking questions, Mr. O'Connor will never be able to finish his
17:30supper.
17:32Sorry.
17:34Mary was right. I sure was asking a heap of questions, but I couldn't help myself.
17:40And it wasn't as if Arthur didn't like talking about it.
17:43Shoot. I thought we were having a good old time. At least I knowed I was.
17:48But after supper, Mary and Aunt Polly made me help with the dishes.
17:52And then they made me promise not to ask Mr. O'Connor no more questions for the rest of the
17:57night.
17:57And only three questions tomorrow morning at breakfast.
18:01It was like pulling teeth, but I promised.
18:04I was racking my brains trying to decide what three questions I was going to ask him.
18:14He looks pretty exhausted.
18:16You would too.
18:21Do you think he might have been frightened?
18:23Nah.
18:24There's no way in the world I would go up in one of those balloons.
18:28There's no way you'd do anything adventurous in a balloon or otherwise.
18:31But I can't wait for the day I get to fly in one.
18:34It'd be more fun than a greased pig.
18:36I think it's dumb.
18:37I think you're dumb and stupid if you aren't scared to fly.
18:40Oh, I'm plenty scared of flying in it.
18:42But I wouldn't let that stop me from finding out what it's like to touch the clouds or see the
18:47earth the way an eagle does.
18:48Yeah, but what if you came crashing down?
18:51You don't go up if you're going to be worrying about it.
18:53I think that's something worth worrying about.
18:55Excuse me.
18:56Huh?
18:57Mr. O'Connor, the room is ready.
18:59You can go to bed now.
19:01Mr. O'Connor?
19:04Mr. O'Connor?
19:06Yes, yes, sir.
19:07After careful consideration, my conclusion is the balloon is not suitable for warfare.
19:12A balloon has to, uh...
19:15Uh...
19:16Uh...
19:17Uh...
19:18Oh...
19:20Uh...
19:21Heh...
19:22Uh...
19:23Excuse me.
19:23I was dreaming we were at war and the President had turned to me for advice.
19:27Perfectly all right.
19:28Your room is prepared and your bed has been turned down.
19:31Thank you very much.
19:33And Mary, if it's not being too forward, would you please call me Arthur?
19:37All right.
19:37I hope you don't mind sharing a room with the boys, but that's the only place to butcher.
19:41Well, not at all, ma'am.
19:43If you'll excuse me, I'm going to go to bed.
19:45Night, everybody.
19:46Night, boys.
19:46Night, Mr. O'Connor.
19:48Good night, Arthur.
19:49Good night, Arthur.
19:50Pleasant dreams.
19:52It was time all of us turned in.
19:54Mary and Aunt Polly went to their rooms while Sid and I headed for ours.
19:58I gotta admit, I was hoping to ask Arthur a few more questions, but it weren't to be.
20:03Shucks.
20:06Be quiet.
20:07We don't want to wake him up.
20:17It's sure been an exciting day.
20:19I wonder what tomorrow has in store for us.
20:22Now, Sid, there's something we gotta discuss.
20:25What are you talking about, Tom?
20:28You and I hadn't slept together in the same bed for some time.
20:31And, well...
20:32So what's the big deal?
20:33We used to all the time.
20:35Yeah, but you toss and turn a lot more nowadays than you used to.
20:38And I don't want you hogging the blankets.
20:40That's all I'm saying.
20:46Golly, look at him.
20:48It must really take a lot out of you to fly a balloon.
20:59God, I want to fly in a balloon.
21:01I want to fly.
21:03I want to fly in a balloon.
21:10No!
21:18I want to fly in a balloon.
21:21I want to fly in a balloon.
21:25I want to fly in a balloon.
21:26And then I'm going to fly in a balloon.
21:28Wow!
21:29Wow.
22:01Golly.
22:37Uh-oh.
22:51Uh-oh.

23:20I'm trying to sleep, Tom.
23:23Yeah.
23:27I had a scary fall from the sky,
23:30but it was just a dream.
23:32I'm not afraid of flying, Arthur.
23:34I really wanna fly in that balloon.
23:37There's just gotta be a way Arthur can help me.
23:39I hope.
23:41Move, Sid.
23:47Yep. As far as I was concerned,
23:50tomorrow was gonna be the day
23:51that I was gonna fly.

24:05He complains to solve the world.
24:06I'll store it off
24:08But, he'll build it up.
