Storyline
Monogram added several songs and a barn dance to this otherwise standard Johnny Mack Brown hay burner, in which the veteran cowboy star comes to the aid of a beleaguered female rancher. Just "drifting along," Steve Garner obtains the job of foreman on a spread belonging to pretty Pat McBride. Unbeknownst to Pat, local banker Jack Dailey not only holds the mortgage on the ranch but is also the man responsible for the death of Pat's father.
