D. L. Dugan was a prospector, Spanish American war hero, and a successful businessman. He was also miser, who cut his own hair and stuffed his shoes with cardboard. He had his hoard of gold bars melted down and molded into a ball so heavy, no thief could make off with it. His hobo grandnephew, who resides in a junkyard with three other bums, later inherits the ball, but assumes it's worthless. The four hilarious bunglers dream of riches, but spend the bulk of their time relaxing in the shade, and though they have little, they are always willing to share with their wayfaring brothers.
