Cisco (Duncan Renaldo) and Pancho (Leo Carillo) are at the border of Arizona and Mexico when they see the U.S. Cavalry pursuing some Mexico bandits. As they get to Mexico themselves, they see a bandido fall off his horse, dead. What’s strange is that the Mexican criminal is really an American soldier all dressed up.
That’s because a gang of elites are trying to keep Arizona from becoming a state and they’re using Mexicans and the racism against them to keep it from happening. Things really haven’t changed, I guess.
Directed by Wallace Fox, this was written by Doris Schroeder, who was also an editor and wrote TV show tie-in novels for Disney’s Spin and Marty, Patty Duke, Lassie and the Lennon Sisters.
