The Hollywood Screen Directors present a footose The Valor orta
Patchy starring John Wayne and Warred Bonds and been produced
by the director of the film, John Ford. Ever since
the infant days of motion pictures, a kind of violent
chain reaction has been exploding in Hollywood. The thoughts of
(00:30):
this rather awesome force is our guest screen director Tonight.
His explosions they have taken the form of such brilliantly
directed films as the informer Stagecoach, How Green Was My Valley?
And Tonight's story for to a Patchy, Ladies and gentlemen.
The director, mister John Ford, thank you.
Speaker 3 (00:54):
I don't know what I'd called Ford a patchie, an explosion.
If I were translating it into sound, I'd say it
was a bugle called brave and distance and a little
sads and nickel of the cavalry Regiments had galloped to
meet adventure on our western plains.
Speaker 2 (01:09):
Now here's our film story for the first.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
Time on the air, starving John Wayne in his original
role of Captain York and Wat Bond as Colonel Thursday
Fort Apache.
Speaker 2 (01:31):
This is the story of Fort Apache of the regiment
the officers and Mandalmander. How they lived now some of
them died d Apache was the last frontier, finey cavalry
outposts in the heart of Indian infested country. My name
is Captain Kirby York. I'd been through an up Indian
campaign to have a healthy respect for the Apache, both
(01:54):
as a fighter and as a man. Colonel Law on Thursday,
the new commanding officer was a career man out of
headquarters in Washington, with a lot of strange ideas about
frontier discipline, military science, and the lowly savage Indian gentlemen.
I have been ordered to assume command of Ford Apache
(02:14):
and to aid the Indian Agent meet him in putting
down the uprising caused by the Apache Chief co Chief.
While some of our regiments are leading well publicized campaigns
against the great Indian nations, we are asked merely to
ward off a few cowardly digger Indians. The Apache sir,
are hardly digger Indians. You would scarcely compare them with
the Sioux. Captain York, no, Colonel I wouldn't the Sioux
(02:36):
rated into Apache territory. Once you could follow the Sioux
retreat by the bones of their dead. We'll discuss that
summ of the time, Captain. The immediate point is that
co Chies and his Apaches have left the reservation. Our
orders are to get them back there. No troop or
squadron or regiment can keep an Apache on a reservation
unless he wants to stay there. Five years ago we
made a treaty with Coochies and his Apache stayed on
(02:59):
the reservation in people for how long, Captain? Until the
Indian agent meet him was sent out by the Indian ring.
He cheated them, degraded them until they couldn't take it anymore. Oh,
Chess broke his treaty, Yes, rather than stay here and
see as nation wiped out. The political aspects of the
situation do not concern me, Captain York. We have a
military job to do, which I am sure we will
accomplish with glory. This is hardly a country for glory, Colonel,
(03:21):
by which you luxey any questions, No questions, sir. For
some reason, the few Apaches who had remained on the
reservation were extremely quiet, which was unusual. It worried me,
but evidently it didn't worry Colonel Thursday. For about a
(03:43):
week later, I was detailed to escort his daughter out,
writing for an inspection of the masia. Stop this, well, I.
Speaker 4 (04:02):
I read here.
Speaker 2 (04:03):
Shouldn't the right to have that way, Miss Thursday? Why not?
It's his Indian country and I'm responsible for you. Oh
I'm not afraid, eh Andy, Look Captain down there smoke?
Is it an Indian signal? No, not a signal. That's
where I telegraph wire was running through the fort Grant. Oh,
I got to ride down the slope and find out.
Can you get back alone alone? No? No, I'm going
(04:23):
with you.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
Yeah, that.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
Easy. Now, why don't make that.
Speaker 5 (04:29):
Uh see it's a logging ring.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
Yeah, that's the one we sent out on the patrol
of the telegraph line. Don't look stay here the man
they're dead.
Speaker 5 (04:48):
Huh right see.
Speaker 4 (04:50):
Oh oh come on, let's get out of here.
Speaker 5 (04:54):

Speaker 5 (05:09):
What Captain York repair wagon burnt and the troopers.

hand me that map, yes, said, I'll show me the place, York. Yes,
there on this love part between the hills. Captain York,
send out a wagon in detail to repair the wires
and bring back the bodies. Yes, god you look a yes, sir,
(05:34):
assemble of platoons can come in the a A platoon.
I set a detail, Captain, an officer and poor men,
but those apaches may still be around court. I am
running a command, not a debating society. Captain York, you
will personally take the detail and leave it once. Very good, sir,
if very new apachees. Colonel you're sending those men to
a sitting dis I know what I am doing, Collingwood.
(05:56):
And now you assemble a platoon immediately? You mean the
platoon is going to triggle away? Can correct at a
striking distance? Surely calling would even you have heard of
the trap as a military weapon? Is? I don't like this,
Captain send us out like this?
Speaker 5 (06:17):
The Lord neither do I.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
What do you think, sir? You think the devils will
be written for us? Can't tell? Patsies are tricky? They

Speaker 5 (07:47):
They turned fire?
Speaker 4 (07:53):
What kind of person? About kind of let's do any home?
Speaker 5 (07:59):
Let and.
Speaker 2 (08:37):
What was left of Diablo's rating party. After the battle
we took back to the reservation at Claws Springs, but
that didn't solve the problem. They were just a handful.
There was still coaches in the entire Apache nation, across
the Rio Bravo in Mexico, right here at Claws Springs
was the root of the trouble, the unscrupulous Indian agent.
Meetcha mister yours.
Speaker 1 (08:58):
How good this is?
Speaker 2 (09:00):
Captain yours to meet him?
Speaker 6 (09:02):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (09:02):
Yes, of course, you soldier boys and your tackles. And
that's this, Colonel Thursday, another meetum. A band of Indians
left this reservation.
Speaker 5 (09:12):
Yes, the ungrateful dogs.
Speaker 2 (09:14):
I treat them well. Nachum. You drove coaches and the
apaches off this reservation by starving and degrading him, getting
un whiskey instead of the trinkets instead of blankets. Chies
did the only thing a decent man could do. He
left and took his people with him across the Rio
Bravo in New Mexico. Why he he broke his treaty
and I demand you soldier boys bring him back by
a force if necessary. Any demands you wish to make,
(09:37):
mister Meechum will be made through official channel. I only
got in York. What's in those boxes, book, sir? More
likely cheap westy. No, no, he's not off on them.
And see Captain okay, right you are at the colonel.
Speaker 5 (09:52):
What are you doing?
Speaker 2 (09:53):
You have no right to dominical terms.
Speaker 5 (09:57):
The books have turned into whiskey in the.
Speaker 2 (09:59):
Verr I have a government license to keep a medicinal supply.
What should we do with the books? Colonel? Destroy them? Okay, yes, sir.
What about these Windschester rifles? Destroy them too? No, no,
you can't. This is private property. You have no righton.
You're a blackguard, a liar, a hypocrite, and ascension the
nostrils of an honest man. If it were in my power,
(10:22):
I'd hang you from the nearest tree and leave your
carcass for the buzzet. But as a representative of the
United States government, you are entitled to the protection of
my command. But that is all good day, sir, he
(10:43):
sent for me. Colonel sit down, Captain York. Yes, now
about this CoA Cheese. We've got to bring him back.
In six campaigns, he's out generalists, out for us, and
outrun us. That's just the point. There, enough troops from
the territory making come back. But one man, a man
he trusts, might persuade him. Co Cheese knows me you're
(11:05):
a fool. Captain. Assuming you found co Cheese, his men
would cut you to pieces. That's plausible, sir, But I've
never lied at co Cheese and if you'll assure him
decent treatment for his people, A carveying against his spine
might be more persuasions. I'd have to go on on.
Have you forgotten what happened to the men on the
repair wagon? Well, I can't fight my way to coaches.
Howther man have tried? Then if we could manage to
(11:27):
get him back to the United States, soil HM, when
you have my permission, Captain, how many men would you
need once, sir, Sergeant Beaufort, he knows the country was
born in Mexico. I'd like to leave it once, sir,
go see captain and take your sergeant. I hope you
make it three days, Sergeant Beaufort. And we haven't seen
(11:56):
a sign of an apache see, but they have seen us.
Must be can't ride up for us. But it's not
always right about us. Look up, look up on the
rocks always looks covered with a patches on both sides
of the five thousands. Looks like they were expecting me.
Keep the smile on both put but on him, Captain,
(12:20):
cause it was right at that time. Winchester seven the
shop repeats him, meet him. Uh, it's like every chief
in the tribes. He get I ain't straight. Ah, No,
he's that he's to go cheese in the front. This
is cause enough Wood lucks her well in a start
(12:49):
his coat, chiefs, we come in peace?
Speaker 6 (12:56):
Where I sty this.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
Friend, Captain Yorke, you got back? Well, Coaches has got
the river, Colonel, he's coming in with all these people.
He wants to talk peace. He's back on American soil. Yes, Lord, captain.
(13:24):
The regiment moves out at dawn, the regiment. But I
promise coaches we'd meet him alone, unarmed, you and me
and meet him. Why meet him? He in says, meet
him be present very well. You will prepare your troops
to march at dawn. But Coaches will think I've tricked
him exactly. We have tricked him. We've tricked him into
returning to American soil, and I intend to see that
(13:45):
he stays here. Colonel, I gave co Cheese my word,
your word to a breech clouded savage, to an illiterate,
uncivilized murderer and treaty breaker. There is no question of honor, Sir,
between an American officer and co Cheese. There is to me, Colonel,
you can't say out the regiment, Captain York. So long
as you are in my command, you will obey my orders.
The regiment will march at dawn. Is this approximately where
(14:18):
you were to meet co Chief, Captain York. That's about
all the troops.
Speaker 4 (14:22):
Woooo.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
Captain, I propose to deploy our men, sending two troops
to the north and one to the east. The apaches, sir,
are neither north nor east, and they're not in their encampment.
You've been watching the dust world to the south as
most of us were, you'd know they're over there, just
coming over the ridge. That's coaches now, sir. They're about
(14:46):
four hours one, most of them with Winchester rifle. Do
we talk Cronora fights? You seem easily impressed by numbers, Captain,
our part of your org. Where's mister Meetium? Meet Tim? Yes, sir,
mister meet him. We are riding out to talk with
(15:08):
CoA chief. Oh he's not the kind you can talk to.
Colonel lie One will accompany us. Mister Meetium. Come on, Captain,
huh take over yat. I have the honor of luxtreus
chief representing the commander of our regiment, Colonel Thursday.
Speaker 6 (15:27):
We have come to talk, yeh, But he's a great nation, proud,
never conquered, but he's not good for nation. Always to fight.
Young men die, old ones hungry. So I bring my
people to reservation.
Speaker 2 (15:46):
Then this man come make trouble. He means you meet him.
Speaker 4 (15:50):
He he he lies for a man who make my
people back.
Speaker 2 (15:53):
He's worse than war. He starved my children home.
Speaker 5 (15:56):
He killed my people.
Speaker 2 (15:57):
No, it's not true.
Speaker 5 (15:58):
And him away and we will talk peace.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
If not, there will be more war. Are you threatening us?
Why don't interrupted peninsult?
Speaker 6 (16:07):
And for each of us you kill, the white man
will die silent.
Speaker 2 (16:13):
I did not come here to be threatened. Oh jeez,
I find you without honor that government which I represent.
Or is you to return to the reservation by gone
or we will attack? It's getting like gel What do
(16:53):
you think. I think they've had their chance. Now it's
time they had their lessons. Hand me your binoculars, Captain, Yes, sir,
I don't see them. Not a run down in the
pass there there, sir, But not down in the path
up on the rim rock. How can you know that?
Because if I were coaches, that's where I'd take up
my position. What about that dust cloud at the far
end of the past and apatchy tricks it women and
(17:15):
children dragging the skiet to make us right through that
narrow path into an ambush. Very ingenious, Captain, You make
me suspect that your coachie studied under Alexander the Great.
At least, gentlemen, mount your troops. We charged through the
pass in a column of fours, mounted in force Colonel
Addaby's suicide. I tell you they're up in those rocks
on either's out of the pass. It's an amboysh Captain York,
(17:37):
there is no room in this regiment for a college.
You will remain on the ridge in safety with its
the fly wagon. Yes, there a charge in fours Thursday
was insane. I stop starge in motay with me and
(17:58):
wheeled the wagons back up onto the rag. All Over
regiments died hard at the hatshell the places, and then
sat there grim.
Speaker 5 (18:07):
There they go cut the clean this wedday of a
souldier verse.
Speaker 4 (18:11):
The eight coping down ended up past.
Speaker 5 (18:17):
They didn't have a chance, but.
Speaker 4 (18:19):
They kept charging through the company tea company and horses,
men racing journey, humbling crazingly, and they fell crainy coping hook.
Colonel Parcy's been hit.
Speaker 7 (18:36):
Keeps me covered, no hair head, Colonel Thursday gork, put
me on your horse, yes, follow me, don't and don't
get on the rich stop nor captain.

wheeled these horse and like a great wind the effect
he rode away. Yes, he gave us back our flight,
(21:00):
a regimental guide on we'd carried into battle. Now the
Regiment of Fort Apache has been reformed. Names are all changed.

Speaker 5 (09:12):
Yes, the ungrateful dogs.
Speaker 2 (09:14):
I treat them well. Nachum. You drove coaches and the
apaches off this reservation by starving and degrading him, getting
un whiskey instead of the trinkets instead of blankets. Chies
did the only thing a decent man could do. He
left and took his people with him across the Rio
Bravo in New Mexico. Why he he broke his treaty
and I demand you soldier boys bring him back by
a force if necessary. Any demands you wish to make,
(09:37):
mister Meechum will be made through official channel. I only
got in York. What's in those boxes, book, sir? More
likely cheap westy. No, no, he's not off on them.
And see Captain okay, right you are at the colonel.
Speaker 5 (09:52):
What are you doing?
Speaker 2 (09:53):
You have no right to dominical terms.
Speaker 5 (09:57):
The books have turned into whiskey in the.
Speaker 2 (09:59):
Verr I have a government license to keep a medicinal supply.
What should we do with the books? Colonel? Destroy them? Okay, yes, sir.
What about these Windschester rifles? Destroy them too? No, no,
you can't. This is private property. You have no righton.
You're a blackguard, a liar, a hypocrite, and ascension the
nostrils of an honest man. If it were in my power,
(10:22):
I'd hang you from the nearest tree and leave your
carcass for the buzzet. But as a representative of the
United States government, you are entitled to the protection of
my command. But that is all good day, sir, he
(10:43):
sent for me. Colonel sit down, Captain York. Yes, now
about this CoA Cheese. We've got to bring him back.
In six campaigns, he's out generalists, out for us, and
outrun us. That's just the point. There, enough troops from
the territory making come back. But one man, a man
he trusts, might persuade him. Co Cheese knows me you're
(11:05):
a fool. Captain. Assuming you found co Cheese, his men
would cut you to pieces. That's plausible, sir, But I've
never lied at co Cheese and if you'll assure him
decent treatment for his people, A carveying against his spine
might be more persuasions. I'd have to go on on.
Have you forgotten what happened to the men on the
repair wagon? Well, I can't fight my way to coaches.
Howther man have tried? Then if we could manage to
(11:27):
get him back to the United States, soil HM, when
you have my permission, Captain, how many men would you
need once, sir, Sergeant Beaufort, he knows the country was
born in Mexico. I'd like to leave it once, sir,
go see captain and take your sergeant. I hope you
make it three days, Sergeant Beaufort. And we haven't seen
(11:56):
a sign of an apache see, but they have seen us.
Must be can't ride up for us. But it's not
always right about us. Look up, look up on the
rocks always looks covered with a patches on both sides
of the five thousands. Looks like they were expecting me.
Keep the smile on both put but on him, Captain,
(12:20):
cause it was right at that time. Winchester seven the
shop repeats him, meet him. Uh, it's like every chief
in the tribes. He get I ain't straight. Ah, No,
he's that he's to go cheese in the front. This
is cause enough Wood lucks her well in a start
(12:49):
his coat, chiefs, we come in peace?
Speaker 6 (12:56):
Where I sty this.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
Friend, Captain Yorke, you got back? Well, Coaches has got
the river, Colonel, he's coming in with all these people.
He wants to talk peace. He's back on American soil. Yes, Lord, captain.
(13:24):
The regiment moves out at dawn, the regiment. But I
promise coaches we'd meet him alone, unarmed, you and me
and meet him. Why meet him? He in says, meet
him be present very well. You will prepare your troops
to march at dawn. But Coaches will think I've tricked
him exactly. We have tricked him. We've tricked him into
returning to American soil, and I intend to see that
(13:45):
he stays here. Colonel, I gave co Cheese my word,
your word to a breech clouded savage, to an illiterate,
uncivilized murderer and treaty breaker. There is no question of honor, Sir,
between an American officer and co Cheese. There is to me, Colonel,
you can't say out the regiment, Captain York. So long
as you are in my command, you will obey my orders.
The regiment will march at dawn. Is this approximately where
(14:18):
you were to meet co Chief, Captain York. That's about
all the troops.
Speaker 4 (14:22):
Woooo.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
Captain, I propose to deploy our men, sending two troops
to the north and one to the east. The apaches, sir,
are neither north nor east, and they're not in their encampment.
You've been watching the dust world to the south as
most of us were, you'd know they're over there, just
coming over the ridge. That's coaches now, sir. They're about
(14:46):
four hours one, most of them with Winchester rifle. Do
we talk Cronora fights? You seem easily impressed by numbers, Captain,
our part of your org. Where's mister Meetium? Meet Tim? Yes, sir,
mister meet him. We are riding out to talk with
(15:08):
CoA chief. Oh he's not the kind you can talk to.
Colonel lie One will accompany us. Mister Meetium. Come on, Captain,
huh take over yat. I have the honor of luxtreus
chief representing the commander of our regiment, Colonel Thursday.
Speaker 6 (15:27):
We have come to talk, yeh, But he's a great nation, proud,
never conquered, but he's not good for nation. Always to fight.
Young men die, old ones hungry. So I bring my
people to reservation.
Speaker 2 (15:46):
Then this man come make trouble. He means you meet him.
Speaker 4 (15:50):
He he he lies for a man who make my
people back.
Speaker 2 (15:53):
He's worse than war. He starved my children home.
Speaker 5 (15:56):
He killed my people.
Speaker 2 (15:57):
No, it's not true.
Speaker 5 (15:58):
And him away and we will talk peace.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
If not, there will be more war. Are you threatening us?
Why don't interrupted peninsult?
Speaker 6 (16:07):
And for each of us you kill, the white man
will die silent.
Speaker 2 (16:13):
I did not come here to be threatened. Oh jeez,
I find you without honor that government which I represent.
Or is you to return to the reservation by gone
or we will attack? It's getting like gel What do
(16:53):
you think. I think they've had their chance. Now it's
time they had their lessons. Hand me your binoculars, Captain, Yes, sir,
I don't see them. Not a run down in the
pass there there, sir, But not down in the path
up on the rim rock. How can you know that?
Because if I were coaches, that's where I'd take up
my position. What about that dust cloud at the far
end of the past and apatchy tricks it women and
(17:15):
children dragging the skiet to make us right through that
narrow path into an ambush. Very ingenious, Captain, You make
me suspect that your coachie studied under Alexander the Great.
At least, gentlemen, mount your troops. We charged through the
pass in a column of fours, mounted in force Colonel
Addaby's suicide. I tell you they're up in those rocks
on either's out of the pass. It's an amboysh Captain York,

You will remain on the ridge in safety with its
the fly wagon. Yes, there a charge in fours Thursday
was insane. I stop starge in motay with me and
