| Old time lawmen vs. Hi-tech Rustlers
William Farnum and Gene Autry are way behind the times in dealing with airplanes, short wave radio and refridgerated trucks. Who can blame Autry in being distracted by the beautiful Ann Rutherford. Smiley Burnette goes undercover and gets romanced by a bull on the loose while Arthur Loft looks at some easy pickens with cattle rustling. Even House Peters Jr. puts on a shooting clinic against the lawmen. But never fear Eustace P. Quackenbush (James C. Morton) has some modern technology to stop the banditos, or does he? Gene Autry shows why he's Public Cowboy No. 1 with some great singing, riding and acting.

Helen Morgan: Why?
Deputy Sheriff Gene Autry: Because I'm gonna poke him in the nose!
Helen Morgan: Allright. Go ahead and poke: I'm the editor.

Goofs

After Frog Millhouse (Smiley Burnette) falls off the refrigerated meat truck where he was dangling on a meat hook, the back of his jacket no longer has a hole in it where the hook would have been.
