Where the North Holds Sway

Produced by Morris R. Schlank and directed by screenwriter Bennett Cohen, this very low-budget Northwest melodrama featured popular B-Western star Jack Perrin and his magnificent horse Starlight. Perrin played a mountie tracking down the man, a notorious gambler (Lew Meehan) who murdered his brother. Befriending the villain's battered wife (Pauline Curley) and young son (Billy Lamar), Perrin collects enough evidence to bring the killer to justice. Little Billy Lamar (aka William Lamoreaux) later changed his name to Buzz Barton and enjoyed some success as a juvenile Western lead for Poverty Row company FBO.
