Rhythm of the Rio Grande

Tex Regan (Tex Ritter) arrives at the Crane ranch just as Blackie (Earl Douglas) and Pete (Chick Hannon) are preparing to burn it. He drives them off, but is accused by Ruth Crane (Suzan Dale) of being in league with Pablo, the bandit, who is blamed for most of the territory's crime. Recognizing Blackie as a henchman of Jim Bannister (Tristram Coffin), Tex starts for the Bannister ranch but is captured and imprisoned. Bannister, however, sets him free.
