00:00♪♪
00:11Junior team N of the Air
00:13clouds over our nation has electrified the patriotic spirit of every true American
00:18is clearly demonstrated by a group of fearless young Americans who,
00:21refusing to let their youth exempt them from active participation,
00:25cleverly track down ruthless unseen enemies operating within our midst.
00:30Working shoulder to shoulder with the state police and junior G-men,
00:34these boys are a mighty proof of the force of united civilian defense.
00:39♪♪
01:09It's locked from the outside.
01:11We gotta get out of here and help Ace.
01:12That's right, there's no telling what those monks will do to my brother.
01:14Ain't them guys the same ones that robbed the state bank?
01:16Yeah, now they got Ace.
01:17And his muffler.
01:18Forget my muffler, let's find out where they're taking Ace.
01:20Come on.
01:22What's the idea of stopping here?
01:24I want to see Monk drop young Ace Holden out of that plane.
01:27What do you think you're taking me?
01:29Up to about 12,000 feet.
01:31Then you're going to try a little cloud walking.
01:57Take your hand off those controls!
01:59Take your hand off those controls!
02:30♪♪
03:00♪♪
03:28Whoa!
03:30♪♪
04:00You all right, son?
04:01Yes, sir.
04:02I'm sorry I cracked the plane up on you right away.
04:04Oh, never mind the right away.
04:05But what about yourself?
04:06You don't look so good.
04:07Oh, I'm all right.
04:08Just want to get home, that's all.
04:09Sure, sure.
04:10As soon as we get the track cleared.
04:11Hey, give me a hand here.
04:16There we were.
04:17Me in front and the other guy in back.
04:18Each with a stick trying to fly the plane.
04:20Now, what do you think the plane's doing?
04:21Oh, boy, what was it doing?
04:22Climbing a tree?
04:23Three times we almost hit the train on the way down.
04:25Then we landed on the trash pile.
04:26And the plane's gone.
04:28Gee, that was close.
04:29Hey, uh, what happened to the other guy?
04:31I don't know.
04:32He must have got away.
04:33That's sure.
04:34When the bunch from the train came and got me,
04:35I was so dizzy and mixed up, I didn't say anything about him.
04:37Hey, Ace, do you think that guy would have left you off
04:39in the cloud like he said?
04:40Sure, that gang's plenty tough.
04:42Hey, maybe we better report him to the police.
04:44Uh-uh, I ain't getting mixed up with no coppers.
04:46What I'm sorry about is them getting Eddie's muffler.
04:48Oh, forget it.
04:49I can make another one.
04:50Yeah, and you was going to be big hearted and give it away.
04:52Now, some thugs are mopping the floor.
04:54I don't care.
04:55You were going to be big hearted and give it away.
04:57Now, some thugs will make a million dollars out of it.
04:59That's what murders mean.
05:00Ah, chances are it's still in the plane
05:02if it didn't fall out when we were flying upside down.
05:04What kept you from falling out?
05:06Flypaper.
05:07Shh.
05:08Come on, let's go pick up the wrecked plane.
05:10Hey, maybe there's going to be some trouble.
05:11What do you mean?
05:12It's mine.
05:13I earned it the hard way, didn't I?
05:14Let's go.
05:15I ain't going.

06:48. What caused the plane to crash the Holden boy got loose from his bond somehow
06:55and bought me for the controls someone was very jealous.
07:04Iraq and the others learned something of great value Excellency one of the boys has
07:08invented a muffler for airplane motors many of them all worthless but this one
07:14works Iraqis so a demonstration we got the muffler to but lost it from the plane
07:19during the fight such
07:20an invention is never lost I don't understand excellence it still exists in the mind
07:26of the one who created it sent Iraqis to me when he returns.
07:44A.
08:04Is your face. Because I'm not going to come
08:11a friend of his he's no copy what's going to stay still
08:13a cop is going to ask
08:14a lot of questions I'm ducking in the clubhouse what's the idea of that I have
08:17another wreck and make me stop.
08:35The way. The range wants to talk to you about that plane wreck how did he know
08:40about it can't land a ship in front of
08:42a train and expect to keep on the headlines but the problem is all I know is that
08:45gang that stole my truck saw me took me out for
08:48a sky ride but can't you guys understand no coppers wanted this is
08:51a private fight no it's bigger than that we believe this is
08:54a very dangerous subversive organization why he means their fifth column you're all
08:59with it just
09:00a bunch of guys looking for some easy dough maybe I believe they're after bigger
09:03game our country's defense and guys don't make me laugh they'd wipe them out in
09:08a minute and they expect that their fanatics and don't care but before that
09:11happened to cause
09:12a lot of damage a lot of death and destruction that's a lot of baloney they
09:15couldn't even get me we're just lucky if you'd realize the danger you're in you'd
09:19help run this gang down I know dice I can take care of myself this is my fight I'll
09:24handle it my own way. All right.
09:32We have ascertained that the inventor of the muffler is
09:34a holden boy's brother very good you will bring him to me maybe if we wait until
09:39he has made another model of the muffler why wait bring him to me at once to make
09:44it here for us and warn Monk that I will not tolerate another blunder and not to
09:50report that an enemy is dead when the newspapers advise the still alive.
09:55Get me
10:02our office in Honolulu.
10:04And.
10:23I don't. Yes I couldn't think the merchandise you ordered is created and ready
10:30for shipment on the depot now. You realize the importance of it I'm not here before
10:36the seventh of December. Yes. Good.
10:46The guys tell me they're
10:47a bunch of fifth columnist they're just a gang that's all they're after us but we're
10:50going to beat him with
10:50a punch when we get through it and they won't even know which side to put their
10:54socks on if we only knew where the hideout is we'll find out we'll tell him the
10:59first we've got to get any started on another month like what sort of gang can
11:01snatch it again quiet we can get the stuff for
11:04a cheap I can get
11:05a wholesale well start thinking about it. And I don't know his fifteen cents and
11:11then you know it was my lunch money.
11:29All set for you I don't get all steamed up I want to help you. Just because you're
11:35on the level about the race doesn't mean we're buddy so do me
11:37a favor and stay in your own backyard when you yeah you may be
11:40a junior gym and but you still smell like
11:41a cop is still to me all right if that's the way you feel about it but you guys may
11:46be glad to have the cops on your side before you're through any time we need the
11:49cops we will be through brother.
11:59You know I hear.
12:29I. Think I'm going to make
12:39a lot of get
12:40a truck will never catch up. With
12:51a truck you crazy and I want.
13:06To know whether we're going in
13:07a right direction and I want to go out in the same direction they want I just saw
13:10that car.
13:21I.
13:40Got the car. And I'm not ready they're putting in that plane.
13:51I.
14:09Don't want to do got
14:10a problem in our plane to be
14:11a thousand miles away before we even got started I don't get that two thousand
14:15we're going you bet we are I know that plane anywhere.
14:45I.
15:15I.
15:45I.
15:56Like him up and got him carefully.
16:04They'll need to be standing by if you need us OK fine.
16:16I.
16:37Then. We've got
16:38a homeboy you'd invent excellent Are you sure you were entirely unobserved. No
16:46no I'm not sure. Well the boys companion
16:52pursued us in
16:53a truck as we were taking off I think we got close enough to get
16:56a good view of the plane it seems my stuff is losing its skill I would be jeopardized
17:01by
17:01a handful of boys those are the tricks of fate excellent do not blame fate for your
17:05stupidity. The plane must be destroyed at once the same general location for which
17:10it took off yes if you do not fumble the plan this time our enemies will be led to
17:14believe the Holden boy was destroyed with it it shall be done it must be done at
17:19once. You might be prepared to make any sacrifice to keep our great work secret.
17:35I'm not giving up until we have to let the gas I'm like. Sure not
17:43a plane when we see it. You're over the spot where you're going to drop the plane
17:49set the time bomb exactly as I told you to be sure it won't go off until after I
17:53bailed out there's plenty of time if you follow my instructions.
18:05It's.
18:35The.
18:53Come on now and this way.
19:00There is not far from where I took off.
19:05It looks like he's in trouble.
19:16He is.
19:17The motor's missing.
19:18And he came back to land at the field he took off from.
19:19Let's force him down.
19:20The pilot's bailing out.
19:21And he's leaving Eddie in there, the rat.
19:22Hey, it's on fire.
19:52Eddie, where are you?
