    Triple threat of Rogers, Gabby and Red Barry
    The shocking opening sets the stage when Rogers Sr. (Lane Chandler) refuses to falsify an assayer's report on water rights and is killed by Ed Tasker (Frank M. Thomas). Toddler Don 'Red' Barry is a witness and is kidnapped and raised by Tasker. So it's brother seeking brother and lover seeking lover where Doris Day comes in. She's not as famous as the later era Doris Day but just as beautiful. Rogers ups the ante against the villains when he forms a vigilante group from among his cowhands. Great roles played by the best sidekick ever, Gabby Hayes and the best henchmen sidekick ever, Jack Ingram. Look for a great scene at the dam with Hal Taliaferro and a dazzling dance scene with Gabby and Fern Emmett.
