Silent western star Hoot Gibson enjoyed showing off his rodeo skills in his westerns. This time, he mistakenly assumes he killed the cousin of his boss in a duel and flees to Oregon. That, of course, gave director Edward Sedgwick a chance to film the 1924 Pendleton Roundup with Hoot as the featured attraction. Gibson's studio, Universal, rounded up a veritable who's who of former and future western stars to complement the rodeo footage, including director Sedgwick's sister Josie and young comer Fred Humes.
