"There's getting' to be too many Joneses and Smiths around to suit me."

5/10

"John Wayne plays a rodeo star who, along with his gambler sidekick, is accused of murder. The two bicker their way to finding the real murderers. Another of John Wayne's cheapie westerns made for Lone Star in the '30s. He's saddled with Eddy Chandler as a sidekick this time. Chandler's completely out of place. He even refers to women as dames at one point. Where's Gabby Hayes when you need him? A lot of humor in this one. Wayne's given some nice banter as well as cute flirting with pretty Mary Kornman. Nice stunt work in this otherwise ordinary oater. Stock footag..."

Juanita's house is the same house as used as the Matlock ranch-house in The Star Packer (1934) and as Malgrove's house in Blue Steel (1934).
