Crime Takes a Holiday

In the last of his four western programmers for Allied Artists, Wayne Morris plays frontiersman Jim Bisby.

While there's no shortage of action, the resolution to the story relies more on brawn than brain. Western "regulars" Sheb Wooley, Myron Healey and Denver Pyle do their usual in secondary roles, as does Elaine Riley as the requisite (but hardly crucial) heroine.
