Show "Code of the West" Frontier Marauders Spread Fiery Havoc Desperadoes spread death and destruction among the new settlers set-tlers in RKO Radio's "Code of the West," based on Zane Grey's gripping grip-ping story of the rip-roaring days of the Arizona frontier. James Warren has the featured lead. The small town of Ryson is run by a boss gambler (played by Raymond Burr) and his gang of toughs, who jump claims and drive the settlers off their lands. Warren and his Mexican-Irish partner, played by John Laurenz, rescue an eastern banker and his daughter from a hold-up and decide de-cide it is time to clean up the town and establish law and order. The boss gambler, resenting the establishment of a reliable bank which would seriously cut in on his profits, begins burning the ranches on which the bank has loaned money. The action gets rough and tough before the bad-men bad-men are rounded up and a federal judge arrives to bring justice and order to the community. |
