Fay Wray has the only wo- ' man role of importance in the picture. Eugene: Pallette, has a role similar to the one he portrayed in “The Virginian.”

“The Border Legion” is one of the . .most popular and actionful stories produced by Zane Grey. Tlie story has the colorful gold-rush days ol the 1870’s as its background, and ■the desperate outlaw band which hai'- / ried the adventurous miners for its subject.
