Case of Spring Fever (1940)

[Music] no I'm sorry but Gilbert won't be able to play with you boys till later this [Music] afternoon he's doing some work for me Springs I hope I never see another spring as long as I live so you never want to see another spring eh okay mister I'll fix it so you get that wish Who Who Are You The name's ky ky the spring Spike they call me I heard your wish and well you're going to get it no more springs for you from now [Music] [Music] on no Springs [Music] no [Music] Springs no [Music] springs hey the [Music] door no [Music] springs no springs my friend no Springs no springs oh gee Co I didn't realize what I was wishing I'm sorry for everything I said can't we call the whole thing off isn't there anything I can do please let me take back my wish well okay I'll do it just this once but next time be careful don't ever make that wish [Music] again [Music] you see fellas the scientific principle of a spring is to absorb energy and then to release it that's all there is to it too bad Joe yeah [Music] Nice Shot yes it was but if it wasn't for the amount of spring in the club shaft combined with the spring of the rubber and inside the ball that drive wouldn't have gone anywhere at all you see all spring action depends on elasticity the ability of material to return to its original form after it's been forced out of shape you know like the action of a springboard and when you stop to think about it even the ground the Earth is like a huge spring it has the ability to absorb a blow and then transmit the shock from one point to another and that's exactly what a spring is supposed to do transmit shock from one point to another okay but let's get on with the game you don't realize the number of Springs that work for us every day why there's a little spring in your cigarette lighter and the spring in your pencil clip and the huge Springs that cush in the railroad trains why I could name thousands of everyday uses for Springs don't bother I never realize until lately that Springs have such a universal use why there Springs in m traps guns exercisers hinges hogo sticks why it's practically impossible to name a single thing in which some sort of spring isn't essential in one way or another take that plane up there for instance it's got a set of shock absorbers on the wheels that depend on heavy Springs controlled by a hydraulic Arrangement when the ship lands the Springs ease the Shar so much you can't even tell when you're on the ground and as far as an automobile is concerned why I wouldn't even attempt to tell you how many various kinds of Springs are used in addition to the springs and SOC s good you know the trouble with people like you guys is that just because most Springs are usually hidden you seldom think of the important part they play in the regular operation and enjoyment of our cars for instance just take those Springs I mentioned a while ago the springs that are built under the C to provide complete riding Comfort spiral coil springs and the knee action in front balance the weight of the car with soft leaf springs in the rear so that the body always rides Along on an even Keel can you imagine what it would be like riding along a rough road like this without those special Springs and then to the springs and the seat and back cushions take up any other little bumps that get through to the body of the car yes sir as far as riding comfort is concerned the tires the cushion Springs and the special Springs under the car all combined to give us a ride that can't be topped Hey Joe wake up wake up fellas well that didn't take long you played a great game boy but you lost what you need is a little more spring in the old M very funny you and your Springs I hope I never see another stop don't say it don't ever wish anything like that as long as you [Music] live
