Well this had a bit of a novelty.In a bar room scene on comes a pretty blonde and starts an energetic tap routine.I cant ever remember seeing this before.The dancer is Margaret Nearing who according to the biographical information had been dancing in a circus from the age of 4.She seeams to have had a short career in Hollywood mainly in uncredited bits.She got married in 1936 when she seems to have retired from the screen.She is not much when it comes to the acting part having a rather monotonous voice a bit like Minnie Mouse.As for the rest this is all rather standard stuff.Again a Ranger going into a bandits camp helped by a reformed outlaw.I wonder how often this plot was used.The equipment used must have been primitive as in the exterior shots the sound of the camera motor is often audible.No better or worse then Westerns of that era.

Texas Ranger Tom Tyler and buddy Robert Walker -- no, not that one -- capture three of Al Bridge's gang. Tyler jawbones Rex Lease into turning honest and helping him track down Bridge and get the goods on him, but Lease is shaky in his loyalties.

It's a good story with some nice twists, but the execution is erratic, as the editing and pacing of westerns begins to pick up. Tyler, Lease, Bridge, and Margaret Nearing (as Lease's tap-dancing sister and Tyler's love interest) keep up the pace of their line readings, but everyone else is slow and dull, and editor Fred Bain sometimes gets the idea that you don't have to show people walking up to a door to get them through it. This results in the battle that should be a highlight taking about 45 seconds, although there's a decently done rescue and two musical numbers to fill things out.

After two of his rangers are killed Captain Drummond (William Gould) declares, "I'd give a lot to catch Travis red-handed." Tom Tyler goes undercover to infiltrate a gang of outlaws. He teams up with Rex Lease to fight the munitions smugglers led by Al Bridge. The leading lady in the great saloon dance scene is American circus star Margaret 'Gams' Nearing. The top henchman, Slim Whitaker, one of the most prolific western bad guys does great work in a supporting role.
