ACTION AT WAR BOW VALLEY

Stock figures in a stock situation -- the war lord cattleman, the lush valley with its dismayed but disunited settlers, the strong pure-heart and the usual two antiphonal women characters. Jim Embree of Texas is the knight without armor; Amy Sutton, the ""good"" rancher's schoolteacher daughter, is there waiting, while Lily Farnum with the past works to make like a cut-rate Marlene Dietrich. You've ridden this trail before.
