03:12Marshal, I was just going to apply for a job.
03:22Sorry, son, but my deputy just went down there with all the men we need.
03:42I don't know.
04:11I don't know.
04:41I don't know.
04:43Who is he?
04:44Who is he?
04:45Who is he?
04:46Who is he?
04:48Boys, get that man.
04:50I want him.
04:52Wait a minute, I'll get him.
05:04Watch this fella.
05:22I'll get him.
05:52Well, Marshal, I guess you got me.
06:00But I wasn't mixed up in that gang.
06:02I was trying to help you.
06:03Why, you darn fool, I knowed it.
06:05I just wanted to talk to you when you let out.
06:08I got a job for you.
06:10And ain't fighting fire is another.
06:13Say, I've been looking for a fella that can shoot and ride like you for months.
06:18Think I'm going to let you get away?
06:19Heh, no siree, Bob.
06:22Take a look at this.
06:41What's wrong with that?
06:42Well, nothing, maybe.
06:44Seems mighty funny to me that every time this gang organizes a rodeo, their own men win all the fuss prizes.
06:53When it begins to look like an outsider's going to win, he gets sick.
06:56Two or three has even died from it.
06:58You can't arrest him for that, Marshal.
07:00No, maybe not.
07:02But it's mighty peculiar that when these outsiders fall off in them tough broncs suffering from snakebite, I tell you, it just ain't natural.
07:11What do you want me to do, get snakebite?
07:13No.
07:14Oh, now my idea is for you to trail over there and sign up for the rodeo.
07:20I'll come along after and do some private investigating while you work in with the gang.
07:26Of course, you don't have to know me when we get there.
07:29What do you say to that, son?
07:30Sounds great to me.
07:31When do we start?
07:32Right away.
07:33Fair enough.
07:38This game is getting pretty hot for us.
07:40It's near time that the law figured out that something crooked with this whole rodeo business and starts investigating.
07:45Now, I've decided we'll make our next cleanup right here in Dalton and head for the border before something happens.
07:50We'll stick up the next stage from the mines, grab the rodeo receipts, and clear out.
07:54You're right, Spike.
07:55He acted mighty suspicious when that fella died over in Boulder.
07:58Sir, when do we start?
08:00Tomorrow.
08:01Dolores will board the stage down at Sagebrush and give you boys a high sign that the money's aboard.
08:06With a woman passenger, the stage crew ain't liable to fight much anyhow.
08:28Well, well.
08:41Hi, Kramer.
08:43Meet my new deputy, John Weston.
08:45Hi, Weston.
08:46How do you do?
08:47Kramer.
08:47I want you to paddle Western over to the Shortcut Trail, the one that leads to Dalton.
08:54Save them a whole day's journey instead of going by the way of the desert and give them a horse.
08:58I'll see if there's another cent to you.
09:00Sure thing.
09:01You better get going then, right now.
09:32Let's go.
10:02Let's go.
10:33The trail starts right out at the end of the corral.
10:35You can't get off of it.
10:37Then you go 14 miles straight through the mountains,
10:40and it'll drop you right out of the timber
10:41on the main stage road that leads the dogs.
11:02Howdy, Miss Carter.
11:12Going home for the big roundup?
11:13Why, yes.
11:14I promised Dad I'd be there.
11:15I'll bet he'd be mighty glad to see you.
11:17I'll be glad to see him, too.
11:18Pardon me.
11:29Do you mind if I sit on this side?
11:32Why, no, certainly not.
11:34It's quite all right.
11:46Get in.
11:46Let's go.
12:00I don't know.
12:30I don't know.
13:00I don't know.
13:30I don't know.
14:00I don't know.
14:30I don't know.
15:00I don't know.
15:30I don't know.
15:31I don't know.
15:32Thanks.
15:32I'll do that.
15:33I don't know.
15:35I don't know.
15:37I don't know.
15:38I don't know.
15:39I don't know.
15:40I don't know.
15:41I don't know.

15:59I don't know.
16:00I don't know.
16:01I don't know.
16:02I don't know.
16:03John Weston, ma'am.
16:04John Weston, from Utah.
16:05I came over for the Rodeo.
16:07I saw your distress signal from the top of the ridge.
16:11When I saw those men riding by, I thought I'd better come down and investigate.
16:15My distress signal?
16:16It was mine.
16:17I saw the men coming and waiting for help.
16:20Well, that's kind of an unusual place to expect help, wasn't it?
16:24Why, I saw you on the ridge.
16:26Oh, I see.
16:33You going to Dalton, ma'am?
16:34Yes.
16:35I'm Marjorie Carter.
16:36My father is Judge Carter, president of the Cavaliers Bank in Dalton.
16:40I want you to meet him when we get there.
16:42He'll want to thank you, too.
16:43You see, the bank had a large shipment of money on this stage.
16:51Yeah, there was about 50 of them after us.
16:53But this fellow from Utah comes along single-handed and knocks them all off the horses.
16:58I've never seen Fitch riding.
17:00Can you tell me when I'll find Weston?
17:02I just went in the bank there, Mr. Carter.
17:12Oh, hello, Miss Carter.
17:13This is Mr. Weston, the man who saved us from the bandits.
17:16Mr. Weston, my father, Judge Carter.
17:18Mighty fine piece of work, young man.
17:20I hope you're staying in Dalton.
17:22Yes, I'm going to enter the Rodeo.
17:24That's fine.
17:25Drop into my office after you get settled.
17:27I'd like to have a talk with you.
17:30I'd be glad to.
17:32You can't blame me if poor man couldn't take care of him.
17:35She's right.
17:36He just outsmarted you, that's all.
17:37I don't like the looks of him.
17:38He came up behind us and tipped the boys off with their horses.
17:39He say he will enter the Rodeo.
17:40We're going to have to take care of him.
17:41He's liable to spoil our plans.
17:42Hi, young man.
17:43How are you, Judge?
17:44Come in.
17:46Miss Carter?
17:47How do you do?
17:48Sit down.
17:49As justice of the peace of this township, I've been doing a little investigating.
17:56And it appears to me that this Rodeo gang ain't just exactly on the level.
18:03If it ain't, we're going to need all the good men we can get on the side of law and order.
18:10Why, it would be mighty disastrous, son, if anything happened to this Rodeo.
18:11Nearly all the money in this valley is tied up in it.
18:12So we've just got to keep it honest.
18:13You mean to say these people have tied up all the money in the valley on a proposition
18:15put on by outsiders?
18:16No.
18:17No.
18:18No.
18:19No.
18:20No.
18:21No.
18:22No.

19:32good night
20:02The End
20:32The End
21:02Ladies and gentlemen, it gives me great pleasure to announce the first annual Johnson Valley Roundup.
21:11Two days of controversy consisting of riding, roping, and horsemanship, featuring Dynamite, the only unridden horse on the race.
21:21Better be careful, son. A lot of men have lost their lives mixing up with this game.
21:26Oh, I don't think they'll try anything today. By tomorrow I may have this thing figured out for you.
21:31I hope so. I still say you ought to be careful.
21:33The Trick Riders, ladies and gentlemen.
21:45Next on the program, ladies and gentlemen, will be the Trick Robing Contest, featuring Jack Hollister.
21:51The next event, ladies and gentlemen, will be the Roman Standing Race.
22:20Next, ladies and gentlemen, we introduce that world-renowned holder of the all-around championship.
22:47Cheyenne Kent and the Calf Robing Contest. Let her go!
22:54Hey?
22:54Go!
22:57Go!
23:05Go!
23:14Go!
23:16New record for this contest, ladies and gentlemen.
23:26Fence time with 15 seconds left.
23:46It was a brave try, but Kent's record still stands.
24:05However, we have a dark horse with us today.
24:09A man from Utah will try his luck.
24:12Turn the boots!
24:16A new world record, ladies and gentlemen.
24:39A man from Utah roped and tied his calf in 14 seconds left.
24:46There's one that got away.
25:13Better luck next time.
25:21That's three events he's taken today, that guy from Utah.
25:24He looks like a ringer to me.
25:26Yeah, we got to do something about it.
25:29Now, I don't want to pull anything too rough unless we have to.
25:31Kent, you take the boys up at the cabin and Dolores will get them up there.
25:35Just work over in Gatley.
25:37Enough so he'll be out of the running tomorrow.
25:39Leave that to us.
25:42Take it off, Pat.
26:06All that's up, Pat.
26:07All that's up, Pat.

29:57We better go tell the boss about this, and he'll be plenty sore.
30:05Hey, Sheriff, a gang just jumped me up at the Spanish woman's house, and I got a hunch
30:14that if you go up there, you can pick up some of the gang that were mixed up in that stagecoach
30:17holdup yesterday.
30:18Yeah?
30:19Well, you don't look to me like you'd been in any fight.
30:22You don't get me out of here in no wild goose chase, either.
30:25I'm staying right here to guard this money.
30:27Well, suit yourself.
30:28Oh, Utah.
30:29I got some prize money for you.
30:35Got a lot of money there, Judge.
30:40Yes, we're doing pretty well.
30:42Took in $8,000 today and expect more tomorrow.
30:45We'll have close to $30,000 in this bank by tomorrow night.
30:48$30,000?
30:49You're taking an awful chance, aren't you?
30:52I'm still guarding this bank, young fella.
30:55Oh, pardon me, Sheriff.
30:58Thanks, Judge.
31:00Thanks, Judge.
31:01Hello, Miss Carter.
31:17Hey, buddy.
31:18Thanks, Judge.
31:19Ain't you the young whippersnapper that won most of them events out there today?
31:24Hey, ain't you the young whippersnapper that won most of them events out there today?
31:29Oh, I won a prize or two.
31:31Sit down.
31:32Hey, you look like the young fella that won the belt, Cheyenne, last summer.
31:36No, that was my granddad.
31:38I've been nosing around.
31:40It is to me like we'd have to get to this fella Barton.
31:43After what you've done today, he'll probably be glad to know you.
31:47Go up to the bar and make a bid on yourself.
31:50You're lucky, up.
31:51All right.
31:54If you can't fix him, I'll have to buy him off.
31:56If you're wrong what work, I'll use my brave.
31:59That bird has put it over on you twice.
32:01Fine bunch you are.
32:04This Utah bird's out there. He just came in.
32:06Fine. I'll take care of him.
32:08Right now.
32:14What does it mean?
32:15Just want to place a bet.
32:18A thousand dollars on Weston to win.
32:24He's a one to two favorite.
32:25That's right.
32:26But it's an easy 500.
32:27Beg Barton.
32:28You're Weston, aren't you?
32:29My name's Barton.
32:30I'm head of the Rodeo Committee.
32:31I'd like to talk to you privately.
32:32Certainly, Barton.
32:33Certainly, Barton.
32:34I want to apologize for that little altercation some of my boys had with you.
32:38They thought you were somebody else.
32:40They found out their mistake and they're sure sorry.
32:42I'd like to have you meet them.
32:43In fact, I'd like to have you join up with us, Weston.
32:44You'll never get into the big money in this game unless you play with a gang.
32:45I guess you know what I mean.
32:46Well, it sounds good to me.
32:47I always get into the big money in this game unless you play with a gang.
32:48You'll never get into the big money in this game unless you play with a gang.
32:53I guess you know what I mean.
32:56else. But they found out their mistake, and they're sure sorry. I'd like to have you meet
33:01them. The fact is, I'd like to have you join up with us, Weston. You'll never get into
33:06the big money in this game unless you play with a gang. I guess you know what I mean.
33:11Well, it sounds good to me. I've always heard you had to be on the inside to be anything.
33:17What's your proposition? Just this. Right now, you're a one-to-two favor. That means you're
33:22going to win on a $1,000 bet, $500. A thing for you to do, so let me place $2,000 for you
33:28on Kent at two to one. And if you should be off form tomorrow and Kent wins, you stand
33:37to make $4,000. Now, that's a lot better than $500, isn't it?
33:42Well, I'm afraid you're right. That's fine. I'm glad you see it our way. Come in the back
33:47room. I want you to meet some of the boys.
33:52Weston here is going to join up with us. I want you all to treat them right. Weston,
34:02meet Cheyenne Kent. Yeah, I think we met before.
34:06Oh, Senor Weston. We will see a lot of each other now that we're friends. See?
34:11I'm kind of green at this racket. I suppose there's a lot of things about the Rodeo business
34:17you could tell me. Well, boys, see you later. So long, Barton.
34:21So long. Well, we'll just make that $2,000 on Weston.
34:34All right.
34:35See, boys, it just takes a little brain to handle a guy like that. Yeah, well, how do you know he won't cross us up? Well, if he does, we can still give him the needle. We're clearing out after this hall anyhow.
35:03How did you make out, son? You had the right hunch, Marshal. This promoter Barton is a brain to the gang, all right. I placed that bet like you told me, and he made me a proposition to join the outfit.
35:20Did he accept? Sure, I accepted. He took me right in and introduced me to the rest of the gang. I met them all.
35:31Barton told me that he placed $2,000 bet on Cheyenne Kent for me, and that if I should lose the events that I was entered in, why, I'd stand to win $4,000.
35:41So I don't think we have much to worry about from them until I start winning. And then maybe it'll be too late for them to get organized.
35:51Well, I don't know, son. It strikes me you better be mighty careful. Remember what happened to them other fellas. This gang's a tough bunch when somebody crosses them.
36:01I don't want to see you took down with snakebite. Did you get anything out of that Spanish woman?
36:09No, she wouldn't talk much. She took me up to that shack on the hill and introduced me to Cheyenne Kent. She said he was her brother.
36:17Well, before I could get either one of them to spill anything, the whole gang jumped me, and I had to carve myself a fast walking stick.
36:26I didn't get you into this job to get yourself killed. You got any ideas how they work this snakebite proposition?
36:33Not yet, but figuring from past performances they can't do much until that bronc riding.
36:38That's one of the last events tomorrow, so I haven't planned to figure it out.
36:42And besides, it's going to take them some time to get wise that I'm not going to lose this rodeo.
36:48Son, I'll never forgive myself if anything happens to you.
36:53No, nothing's going to happen. Come on, let's turn in.
36:56Come on, it's a big day.
37:12I want to announce at this time that the high man in yesterday's events was the man from Utah.
37:21Cheyenne Kent is a runner-up, and it looks like a close race.
37:26In the events for today, the contesting will consist of riding, roping, and bulldogging,
37:31ending in a thrilling demonstration of horsemanship,
37:34when both the man from Utah and Cheyenne Kent will try their luck on dynamite.
37:39May the best man win.
37:41For the first time, ladies and gentlemen,
37:46you will see the Indians from the Jordan Reservation in full regalia.
37:51Let her go!
37:52Let her go!
37:52Let her go!
37:53Let her go!
37:53Oh, my God.
38:23They're sure going to give it to you today.
38:26Think you got it doped out?
38:27Well, I don't know for certain, but I got a good hunch.
38:30And you hadn't ought to take any chances.
38:32Well, that's the only way to get that dope on it.
38:34Say, have you got that snake bite medicine?
38:36Sure.
38:37That's what I thought.
38:40Here, take this outfit with the needle.
38:45What are you thinking about, son?
38:48Old-timer, I think I got this thing figured out.
38:51Come on, I'm in the next event.
38:54Next is the bulldogging, ladies and gentlemen.
38:57Watch closely.
38:58This is going to be good.
39:00Good luck.
39:13Come on.
40:46And now, folks, Cheyenne Kent will drive to the bulldogging record.
40:51Let her go!
40:51It's time for 13 seconds, the best so far.
41:12John Weston, a man from Utah, is next up.
41:17I've got to leave, Marjorie.
41:19The receipts are in by now.
41:20I've got to check them over and put them in the vault.
41:22All right, Dad.
41:23I'll be in line.
41:23I'll be in line.
41:31Look up another one for the man from Utah, folks.
41:48We better catch time by two seconds.
41:50Or 11 seconds left.
41:57We've got to stop that guy right now.
42:00If he wins the bronc riding, we're licked.
42:02When that double corset comes up for a bronc, you boys give him the needle and make it strong.
42:07Now get going.
42:07Ladies and gentlemen, Diane Kent will attempt to ride dynamite.
42:38And written for three years.
42:40Letterboxd!
42:41Come on, come on!
43:11Come on, come on!
43:13Come on!
43:15Come on!
43:17Come on!
43:19Come on!
43:21Come on!
43:23Come on!
43:25Come on!
43:27Come on!
43:29Come on!
43:31Come on!
43:33Is everything all fixed for me, boys?
43:35All yours.
43:37Maybe I'd better just give him the once over myself to make sure.
43:39You'll find everything all right.
43:44Ladies and gentlemen,
43:45a man from Utah will try his luck on dynamite.
43:49Read him, cowboy!
43:51Hurry up there, Weston.
43:53You're next.
43:55Just a minute.
44:09I'm ready to shoot three.
44:11Coming out.
44:12Three loose.
44:13From Utah on dynamite.
44:21All righty, Mr. Cree.
44:23Three loose.
44:24The men from Utah on dynamite.
44:25All righty, Mr. Cree.
44:26Three loose.
44:27Three loose.
44:28The men from Utah on dynamite.
44:29A man from Utah on dynamite!
44:46That guy's wise. He found the needle we planted for him, and now he's riding the Bronx.
44:50We've got to get moving. We clean out the bank and get over the line.
44:53What about me?
44:54That's for you to figure out.
44:59I'm going to go.
45:02I'm going to go.
45:24I'm going to go.
45:27He rode him, ladies and gentlemen! He rode him! What a boy!
45:43Peter Weston.
45:45What's the matter?
45:46Spike and the boys are holding up the bank and they left us behind.
45:57I'm not sure how to get out of here.
46:02I'm not sure how to get out of here.
46:09Thank you, Al.
46:27What did you do?
46:28Sheriff.
46:29I...
46:30Robbery and murder, eh?
46:31O'er, is there a place?
46:32What are you doing?
46:37What do you do?
46:38What do you do?
46:39What's your fault?
46:40What's your fault?
46:42Oh, Sheriff?
46:43I...
46:45You're a crime.
46:46You're a crime.
46:48You're a crime.
46:50I'm a crime.
46:51You're a crime.
46:52You're a crime.
46:53You're a crime.
46:54You're a crime.
46:55You're a crime.
46:56and murder, eh? Well, you didn't get away with it. I thought you acted kind of suspicious
47:01last night when you were looking over that money and tried to get me out of there. But
47:05Sheriff, I... Save your breath, young fella.
47:21Hold on. Are you, you are... Just a minute, Sheriff. I'm the United States Marshal.
47:27That young fella's working for me. We're after a gang of rodeo crooks and you almost let the biggest one get away.
47:33Now I gotta organize a posse and go after them.
47:35Now I'm going to have to go after them.
47:44Now I go after the red line, let's see.
47:47Now I'm going after the red line.
49:49Nice work, son.
50:05Come on, boys. Take him out.
50:08Boy, you got him red-handed.
50:10Yes, and that's not all.
50:12Here's enough evidence to send that gang up for murder.
50:15Whenever anyone interfered with their Rodale plans, they stuck one of these needles dipped
50:21in snake venom in the saddle.
50:23And if the man died, why, they couldn't prove anything on them.
50:27I know there was a mystery about this Summers, but it took you to figure it out.
50:34Well, you see, Miss Marjorie's like this.
50:37He had to play up with that gal so he could get in with the gang.
50:40Well, in that case, I'll have to forgive him.
50:46Sir, young fella, how about that deputy sheriff job?
50:49Sorry, Judge, but I can't accept.
50:52Does it interfere with my plan?
50:54Plans?
50:54Well, Judge, what are you planning now?
50:57Well, Dad, you see, he's promised to stay away from these beautiful senoritas, and we've
51:02got to plan our honeymoon.
51:05Well.
51:06Go on, Judge.
51:11Go on, Judge.
