03:18Marshal, 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.
03:48I was just going to apply for a job.
04:18I was just going to apply for a job.
04:48Boys, get that man.
04:50I want him.
05:03Wait a minute.
05:04I'll get him.
05:05Watch this fellow.
05:06I'll get him.
05:10I'll get him.
05:12I'll get him.
05:15I'll get him.
05:17I'll get him.
05:19I'll get him.
05:23I'll get him.
07:55He acted mighty suspicious when that fella died over in Boulder.
07:58When do we start?
08:00Tomorrow.
08:01Dolores will board the stage down at Sagebrush
08:03and 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.
08:25Well, well.
08:41Hi, Kramer.
08:43Meet my new deputy, John Weston.
08:45Hi, Weston.
08:46How do you do?
08:47Kramer, I want you to paddle Weston over to the shortcut trail,
08:52the one that leads to Dalton.
08:53Save them a whole day's journey instead of going by the way of the desert
08:56and 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.
09:23You better get going then.

11:11Howdy, Miss Carter.
11:12Going home for the big round-up?
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.
11:28Pardon me.
11:29Do you mind if I sit on this side?
11:30Why, no, certainly not.
11:31It's quite all right.
11:59Why, fine?
12:11I don't know.
12:15No.
12:19I was gab Ernie.
12:20Oh, it was Jar precis.
12:22Just, he was damned.

14:29I don't know.
14:59I don't know.
15:06You sure got us out of a jam that time, stranger.
15:23Nice riding.
15:25You don't happen to be going to the Dalton Rodeo, do you?
15:28Yes, I am.
15:29Well, tie your horse on behind and ride in with us.
15:31Thanks, I'll do that.
15:33Thanks, I'll do that.
15:38Thanks, sir.
15:39I'll do that.
15:45Well, it was very funny to come to our rescue, Mr. Uh...
16:02Weston, ma'am. John Weston, from Utah.
16:06I came over for the Rodeo.
16:08I saw your distress signal from the top of the ridge.
16:12When I saw those men riding by, I thought I'd better come down and investigate.
16:15My distress signal? It was mine.
16:18I saw the men coming and waiting for help.
16:21That's kind of an unusual place to expect help, wasn't it?
16:24Why, I saw you on the ridge.
16:27Oh, I see.
16:32Are you going to Dalton, ma'am?
16:35Yes. I'm Marjorie Carter.
16:37My father is Judge Carter, president of the Cavaliers Bank in Dalton.
16:40I want you to meet him when we get there.
16:42You want to thank him, too.
16:44You see, the bank had a large shipment of money on this stage.
16:51Yeah, there was about 50 of them after us.
16:54But this fellow from Utah comes along single-handed and knocks them all off the horses.
16:59I've never seen Fitch Wright.
17:00Can you tell me when I'll find Weston?
17:03I just went in the bank there, Mr. Carter.
17:12Oh, hello, Miss Carter.
17:14This is Mr. Weston, the man who saved us from the bandits.
17:17Mr. Weston, my father, Judge Carter.
17:19Mighty fine piece of work, young man.
17:21I hope you're staying in Dalton.
17:23Yes, I'm going to enter the Rodeo.
17:24That's fine.
17:26Drop into my office after you get settled.
17:28I'd like to have a talk with you.
17:30I'd be glad to.
17:41You can't blame me if poor man couldn't take care of him.
17:44She's right.
17:45He just outsmarted you, that's all.
17:46I don't like the looks of him.
17:47He came up behind us and tipped the boys off with their horses.
17:50He say he will enter the Rodeo.
17:52Well, we're going to have to take care of him.
17:54He's going to have to spoil our plans.
18:02Hi, young man.
18:03Hello, Judge.
18:04Come in.
18:06Miss Carter?
18:07How do you do?
18:08Sit down.
18:09As justice of the peace of this township, I've been doing a little investigating.
18:19And it appears to me that this Rodeo gang ain't just exactly on the level.
18:24If it ain't, we're going to need all the good men we can get on the side of law and order.
18:29Why, it would be mighty disastrous, son, if anything happened to this Rodeo.
18:33Well, nearly all the money in this valley is tied up in it, so we've just got to keep it honest.
18:38You mean to say these people have tied up all the money in the valley on a proposition put on by outsiders?
18:43Yes, every cent.
18:46They think it'll bring people in prosperity to Dalton, and they're all mighty proud of this little valley.
18:52That's why I'm offering you the job of deputy sheriff.
18:55I figure that with a man like you representing us, they won't dare to pull any of their tricks.
19:02Well, I appreciate your confidence in me, Judge, but I couldn't accept.
19:06It would interfere with my plans.
19:09Plans?
19:10What plans?
19:11My plans to enter the Rodeo tomorrow.
19:15Oh, I see.
19:17Well, I'm sorry, young man.
19:19So am I, Judge.
19:22Good day, Miss Carter.
19:23Good day.
19:27I'm afraid I was talking to the wrong man.
19:30Well, I think he's nice.

22:40Next, ladies and gentlemen, we introduce that world-renowned holder of the all-around championship, Cheyenne Kent and the calf-roping contest. Let her go!
23:10Do record for this contest, ladies and gentlemen. Fence time with 15 seconds left.
23:40This is a brave tribe, but Kent's record still stands. However, we have a dark horse with us today.
24:08A man from Utah will try his luck. Turn him loose!
24:12A new world record, ladies and gentlemen.
24:22A new world record, ladies and gentlemen. A man from Utah roped and tied his calf in 14 seconds left.
24:34A new world record, ladies and gentlemen. A man from Utah roped and tied his calf in 14 seconds left.
24:40A man from Utah roped and tied his calf in 14 seconds left.
24:44There's one that got away.
25:12Better luck next time.
25:20That's three events he's taken today, that guy from Utah.
25:23He looks like a ringer to me.
25:25Yeah, we got to do something about it.
25:27Now, I don't want to pull anything too rough unless we have to.
25:30Ben, you take the boys up at the cabin and Dolores will get them up there.
25:34Just work over him gently.
25:36Enough so he'll be out of the running tomorrow.
25:38Leave that to us.
25:42Take it off, Pat.
26:04All right, Pat.
26:06Oh, sir, folks.
26:13Are you ready?
26:14Where do you lose?
26:15Oh, sir.
26:35Dolores, you met on the stage.
26:36It's in with the gang.
26:38Let's plug up to her and see what you can find out.
26:41I'll meet you in the saloon.
26:45I'll meet you in the saloon.
27:15In advance, ladies and gentlemen.
27:17Don't forget, tomorrow is the big day.
27:25Oh, you were wonderful.
27:28Oh, thank you, Miss Carter.
27:29That means a lot coming from you.
27:31Oh, flatterer.
27:33I'd like you to come to the house dinner tonight.
27:35I told father that maybe we could get you to reconsider his offer.
27:38He needs somebody like you.
27:40Oh, Mr. West.
27:41It was wonderful the way you win today.
27:44My brother, he is a big rodeo star also.
27:46And he would like to meet you.
27:48Won't you come now?
27:50Well, I...
27:51Well, yes.
28:01Goodbye, Miss Carter.
28:02I'll see you tomorrow.
28:03Here's the cone, Kent.
28:18You boys, get out the back way.
28:20This is my brother, Chai and Kent.
28:31How do you do, Kent?
28:32Pleased to have you accept your hospitality, Mr. Weston.
28:35Sit down.
28:36Dolores will fix us a drink.
28:38Thanks.
28:39I watched your work out at the show today and thought you were great.
28:42Well, you did some mighty fine work yourself.
28:47Pour one.
28:49No, thanks.
28:49I don't drink.
28:56Well, here's looking at you.
28:57Here.
29:09Well, Weston, tomorrow's going to be a big day.
29:14Now then, if you want to throw in with us...
29:16Let's go.
29:46We got away.
29:57We better go tell the boss about this, and he'll be plenty sore.
30:10Say, Sheriff, a gang just jumped me up at the Spanish woman's house.
30:13I got a hunch that if you go up there, you can pick up some of the gang that were mixed
30:16up in that stagecoach holdup yesterday.
30:18Yeah?
30:19Well, you don't look to me like you'd be 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, you talk.
30:29I got some prize money for you.
30:31I got 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?
30:53I'm still guarding this bank, young fella.
30:56Oh, pardon me, Sheriff.
30:59Thanks, Judge.
31:00Hey, Mr. Carter.
31:23Hey, buddy.
31:25Ain't you the young whippersnapper that won most of them events out there today?
31:30Oh, I won a prize or two.
31:31Sit down.
31:33Hey, you look like the young fella that won the belt, Cheyenne, last summer.
31:37No, that was my granddad.
31:39I've been nosing around.
31:41It is to me like we'll have to get to this fella, Barton.
31:44After what you've done today, he'll probably be glad to know you.
31:48Go up to the bar and make a bid on yourself.
31:51You're lucky, up.
31:52All right.
31:55If you can't fix them, I'll have to buy them off.
31:57If you're wrong what work, I'll use my brain.
31:59That bird has put it over on you twice.
32:02Fine bunch you are.
32:05This Utah bird's out there.
32:06He just came in.
32:07Fine.
32:08I'll take care of him right now.
32:14What does he mean?
32:16He's going to place a bet.
32:18A thousand dollars on Weston to win.
32:20He's a one-to-two favorite.
32:30That's right.
32:31But it's an easy 500.
32:33Beg Barton, you're Weston, aren't you?
32:36My name's Barton.
32:37I'm head of the Rodeo Committee.
32:39I'd like to talk to you privately.
32:41Certainly, Barton.
32:51I want to apologize for a little altercation some of my boys had with you.
32:55They thought you were somebody else.
32:57They found out their mistake, and they're sure sorry.
33:00I'd like to have you meet them.
33:02Fact is, I'd like to have you join up with us, Weston.
33:05You'll never get into the big money in this game unless you play with a gang.
33:09I guess you know what I mean.
33:11Well, it sounds good to me.
33:13I've always heard you had to be on the inside to be anything.
33:17What's your proposition?
33:18Just this.
33:19Right now, you're a one-to-two favorite.
33:22That means you're going to win on a thousand dollar bet, five hundred dollars.
33:25The thing for you to do is to let me place two thousand for you on Kent at two to one.
33:30And, uh, if you should be off form tomorrow,
33:34and Kent wins,
33:36you stand to make four thousand dollars.
33:40Now, that's a lot better than five hundred dollars, isn't it?
33:42I'm afraid you're right.
33:44That's fine.
33:45I'm glad you see it our way.
33:47Come in the back room.
33:48I want you to meet some of the boys.
33:57Boys,
33:58Weston here is going to join up with us.
34:00I want you all to plead them right.
34:01Weston, meet Cheyenne Kent.
34:03Yeah, I think we met before.
34:06Oh, Senor Weston.
34:08We will see a lot of each other now that we're friends.
34:11See?
34:11I'm kind of green at this, uh, racket.
34:14I suppose there's a lot of things about the Rodeo business you could tell me.
34:19Well, boys, see you later.
34:21So long, Barton.
34:21So long.
34:22Well, we'll just make that two thousand on Weston.
34:34All right.
34:35See, boys, it just takes a little brains to handle a guy like that.
34:57Yeah, well, how do you know he won't cross us up?
34:59Well, if he does, we can still give him the needle.
35:01We're clearing out after this hall anyhow.
35:06How'd you make out, son?
35:08You had the right hunch, Marshal.
35:11This promoter Barton is a brains of the gang, all right.
35:13But I placed that bet like you told me, and he made me a proposition to join the outfit.
35:21Did he tip?
35:22Sure, I accepted.
35:25He took me right in and introduced me to the rest of the gang.
35:28I met them all.
35:31Barton told me that he'd placed a two thousand dollar bet on Cheyenne Kent for me.
35:35And that if I should lose the events that I was entered in, why, I'd stand to win four thousand dollars.
35:43So I don't think we have much to worry about from them until I start winning.
35:48And then maybe it'll be too late for them to get organized.
35:51Well, I don't know, son.
35:53It strikes me you better be mighty careful.
35:56Remember what happened to them other fellas.
35:59This gang's a tough bunch when somebody crosses them.
36:02I don't want to see you took down with snakebite.
36:05Did you get anything out of that Spanish woman?
36:09No, she wouldn't talk much.
36:11She took me up to that shack on the hill and introduced me to Cheyenne Kent.
36:16She said he was her brother.
36:20Before I could get either one of them to fill anything, the whole gang jumped me,
36:23and I had to carve myself a fast walking stick.
36:26I didn't get you into this job to get yourself killed.
36:29You got any ideas how they work this snakebite proposition?
36:32Not yet, but figuring from past performances they can't do much until that bronc riding.
36:38That's one of the last events tomorrow.
36:40So I haven't to lend 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.
36:55Come on, let's turn in.
36:56Tomorrow's a big day.
37:17I 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 event 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.
37:43For the first time, ladies and gentlemen,
37:45you will see the Indians from the Dalton Reservation in full regalia.
37:51Let her go!
37:55Well, they're sure going to give it to you today.
38:04They'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 hunt.
38:30You hadn't ought to take any chances.
38:32Well, that's the only way to get that dope on.
38:34Say, have you got that snake bite medicine?
38:36Sure.
38:37Never love it.
38:39That'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.
38:56Watch closely.
38:58This is going to be good.
39:08Come on.
40:39And 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.
41:23Look up another one for the man from Utah, folks.
41:47We better catch time by two seconds or 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, Cheyenne Kent will attempt to ride dynamite.
42:37And written for three years.
42:40Letterboxd!
43:07Letterboxd!
43:09Oh!
43:32Is everything all fixed for me, boys?
43:34No lures.
43:36Maybe I'd better just give him the once over myself,
43:38to make sure.
43:39Well, you'll find everything all right.
43:44Ladies and gentlemen, a man from Utah will try his luck on dynamite.
43:50Write him, cowboy!
43:52Hurry up there, Weston. You're next.
43:54Just a minute.
44:09All righty. It's your three.
44:28Three loose. A man from Utah on dynamite.
44:39That guy's wise. He found the needle we planted for him, and now he's riding the bronc.
44:51We'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.
45:09He rode him, ladies and gentlemen. He rode him. What a ride.
45:32Hey, you're Weston.
45:45What's the matter?
45:46Spike and the boys are holding up the bank, and they left us behind.
46:02Thank you, Al.
46:03All right.
46:08Thank you, Al.
46:09All right.
46:11All right.
46:11Oh, my God.
46:41Put up your hand.
46:54Why, Sheriff, I...
46:56Robbery and murder, eh?
46:58Well, you didn't get away with it.
46:59I thought you acted kind of suspicious last night when you were looking over that money
47:02and tried to get me out of there.
47:05But, Sheriff, I...
47:05Save your breath, young fellow.
47:11Hold on.
47:22Are you...
47:22Just a minute, Sheriff.
47:24I'm the United States Marshal.
47:26That young fellow's working for me.
47:29We're after a gang of rodeo crooks, and you almost let the biggest one get away.
47:33Now I got to organize a posse and go after him.
47:35I got to organize a posse and go after him.
48:05I got to imagine.
48:19Oh, my God.
48:21I got to ask you, and you were speaking.
48:28Oh, my God.
49:59Nice work, son. Come 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.
50:16Whenever anyone interfered with their Rodale plans, they stuck one of these needles dipped in 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 a cracky it took you to figure it out.
50:34Well, you see, Miss Marjorie's like this. He had to play up with that gal so he could get in with the gang.
50:41Well, 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? What are you planning now?
50:56Well, Dad, you see, he's promised to stay away from these beautiful senoritas, and we've got to plan our honeymoon.
51:06Well...
51:06Go on, Judge.
51:11Go on, Judge.
