This 1949 story packs horses, cattle, rainstorms, riverboats, fires, fistfights and gunfights into just thirty minutes.
Playing after the intermission for the second Act, No Soap Radio takes the stage and presents another Jack Benny Recreation, this time tackling the May 5th, 1940 episode where the gang returns to Hollywood by way of a TWA flight.
