Storyline

Rowdy Yates vows to beat Gil Favor's herd to Abilene, in his first shot as trail boss. The ramrod quit, because he opposed Gil's not letting their crew party down, before hitting the trail with a fresh herd. Gil recommends Rowdy for a trail boss job, and lets Rowdy take on Wishbone as cook, rather than bid up wages. When Gil sees the dirty tactics Rowdy uses, he's determined not to let his protégé beat him to the railhead, thus getting the better prices for his owner's steers.
