Harry Woods and Autry's best leading lady, June Storey set the stage as close partners of a popular guest ranch. The mood changes when the marshal (Al Bridge) informs Ol' Frog, Gene and Tully Marshall to be on the lookout for fur smugglers. Marshall makes a huge mistake "slipping one on his old partner" and goes to Crescent City alone. His demise leads Autry to the ranch with some interesting characters. The most versatile actress Dorothy Hamilton and prolific child actor Robert Winkler have amazing comic relief with Smiley. Glenn Strange, Edmund Cobb and Jack Ingram ratchet the suspense up to another level. A most enjoyable film with a great talent pool of actors, Walt Shrum and His Colorado Hillbillies and wonderful Gene Autry tunes.
