Sons Of The Border casts Tom Keene as a cowboy who has to shoot his good friend because he was on the run as an outlaw. It's a plot gambit right out of The
Virginian.
The additions are that Julie Haydon was the friend's fiance and she vows to get
even some day even though she knows her intended was going down a dark
path. I have to confess I did not recognize Lon Chaney, Jr. in the days before he
decided to step into his father's shoes as a horror film actor. Additionally Chaney's much younger brother comes to town and Keene decides to take him
in without revealing it was he who shot him. Everyone's keeping Tom's secret
including Haydon who is only biding her time.
The Trampas part is played by veteran movie heavy Al Bridge. Edgar Kennedy
is here also as a sidekick to Keene.
Although in typical B western fashion the title has nothing to do with the plot
as our borders don't figure into the story, it was still good enough for the
Saturday matinee kiddie trade.
