Transcript

Your famous explorer, Anne! After you heard the story unfold, how Mr. Noise, endeavoring to befriend two children who were

stranded in the Brazilian jungle, finds himself in the clutches of an infamous white renegade named Butch Grogan. The two youngsters, Gina and Jimmy Brady and their aeroplane, are captured by Grogan. Not however, until Pat Donovan the pilot succeeds in disabling the ship.

In the meantime, the white renegade, hated by a tribe of Indians, gets the prisoners ashore and places Mr. Noise and Pedro in a hut by themselves. Little Jean and Jimmy, he takes to his own hut and tries to bless them into believing that he wants to be their friend, even to handing the secret code back to the children, asking

them to hold it in good faith but to study it and be able to read it. Then he leaves the hut for a few minutes. That's where he made a big mistake, for right now the two children are doing some fast thinking.

Jean, as good as the door and look out, sit and get a line out of grove and hurry. Okay. I see him. He's away down at the end of the village street. Donovan's there too.

A couple of Indians have him a prisoner. Hey, what's Gogun doing? Keep watching while I get things fixed here. No. Gogun's still standing there. Donovan's pointing to the river. They must be talking about the aeroplane, I guess.

Oh, there they go. They're going to the little hut. The Indians are standing outside the door. Oh, Gogun and Donovan just went inside too. Swell. But come here, Gene. Well, sure, Timmy. But look, now, about our secret code. It's written on kind of heavy paper.
