Abilene Town
In the years following the Civil War, the town of Abilene, Kansas is poised on the brink of an explosive confrontation. A line has been drawn down the center of the town where the homesteaders and the cattlemen have come to a very uneasy truce. The delicate peace is inadvertently shattered when a group of new homesteaders lay down their stakes on the cattlemen's side of town, upsetting the delicate balance that had existed thus far and sparking an all-out war between the farmers and the cowboys.

Directed by Edwin L. Marin, the Abilene Town cast features Dan Mitchell, Ann Dvorak and Edgar Buchanan.
Blue Steel
John Carruthers, played by actor John Wayne, reveals that there is gold to mine in the hills in order to save a small town from distinction, much to the displeasure of an outlaw gang already aware of the secret. Carruthers goes undercover to unmask the crooked speculators who intend to buy up the supposedly worthless town that actually stands on top of a huge load of gold. (from Internet Movie Database)
Directed by Robert Bradbury, the Blue Steel cast features John Wayne, Eleanor Hunt and George 'Gabby' Hayes.
