ler, the sturdy and handsome
trouble-shooter, whom the Wash
ington government sends out to
quell disturbances.
A strong supporting role is
played by Brian Donievy who
leaped to fame in "The Great Mc-

first rate stardom in ‘‘Wake Is

gaudy, lawless settlement called
"end of track," at a time wheni
the Intrigues of a frontier sharp
er Sid Carapeau, played by Don
ievy. and his smooth lieutenant
Dick Allen, played by Robert
Preston, threaten to halt the
building of the road. The men are
playing the game of a Chicago
financier who wants to stop the
