WAAAAAAAH! Hold on to your hats and pass those Kellogg's cornpods. Cause here comes Guy Madison as Wild Bill and his pal Jingle's, which is me and he divine. We got another root and tuten Wild Bill Hickok adventure story for ya.

From that great new cereal with the sweet and all ready on it, Kellogg's! Kellogg's cornpods brings you Wild Bill Hickok. Transcribe in Hollywood and starring Guy Madison as Wild Bill and Andy Divine as his pal Jingle.

In the days of the Old West, early fall was the time of the big cattle drives from Texas branches to the railheads in Kansas. One such drive snarled up United States Marshal Wild Bill Hickock and his deputy jingles in some real trail herd trouble.

It all started that day in August when old dad McLean was standing near the corral of his Texas branch watching his boys drive his herd in from round up. All right, Chucky, that's the last of them drop the bars in that gate.

The rest of you boys and settle and try to system let him roll in the dirt. Round up's over. Hey, Cookie, be sure that bars are tight, then get away from there. That's a good round up, Rip. Yeah, Mr. McLean.

There's your trail herd, 3000 strong. We'll start them north at Sunup. Barn any more hard luck. Yeah, we've been jinxed enough for one year. I couldn't take much more. Rip. I cookie! That bull behind you, look out!

Look out! Rip, cookies down inside the gate. We gotta get them out of here. That's full of killing for sure. Well, Rip, he's not as bad off as I first thought. Uh, Cookie's right lucky to tangle with a locoed long horn and come off with only a broken leg.
