Why? Hats and pastels Kellogg's corn pops. Cause here comes Guy Madison as Wild Bill in his pal Jingle's, which is me Andy Divine. We got another rootin' tootin' Wild Bill Hickok adventure story for ya.

luck. That's what it took to drive the heavy freight wagons of the old west over treacherous mountain trails and the men who did were tough as rawhide but they couldn't fight a mysterious jinx that brought death to every twist of the trail.
