102 The Filmgoers' Annual TOM SAWYER quarrels with his " puppy love" sweetheart, Becky Thatcher, and seeks comfort in the company of Huckleberry Finn, who is the local rascal. Huck tells Tom of a mysterious cure for warts ! The only " snag " about this cure is that Tom must go with Huck to a graveyard at midnight. However, Tom and Huck meet at the graveyard in time to see Injun Joe murder one of his companions, while Muff Potter is present and drunk — so drunk, in fact, that Injun Joe makes him believe he committed the crime. J TOM SAWYER I Tom and Huck, scared out of their wits, swear a " blood-oath " never to tell what they have seen. Now Muff Potter's trial begins, Tom breaks his " blood-oath," the police go after Injun Joe, who escapes. Then comes the school picnic near a famous cave. Tom and Becky get lost in the cave and stumble on Injun Joe unearthing a chest of Spanish gold. Joe pursues them, but falls down a crevasse and is killed. Huck finds his friends and leads them to safety, but not before they have retrieved the chest of gold which is to make them all, as they ought to be, rich and happy ever after !
