Synopsis

Thorg, a hunted Viking pirate, lands to conquer Atlantic-seaboard Indians. They summon their champion Strong Bow with a coded drum beat. But the hero allows himself to be captured. Strong Bow jumps overboard, breaks the steering rudder, grabs a bow and arrows, knocks shields flying and pierces the sails, then "anchors" the boat to run ashore. More Vikings arrive. But they come in peace and take Thorg prisoner. "Once again our people shall live in peace!"

Synopsis

Grizzled Sgt Stryker reports to Lt Foley that he failed and lost the two Sioux spies - and is resigning from the Army. Foley needs the old veteran, so gently helps him remember the secret cave in the canyon, find footprints, send a message, and block the path with a fallen tree. They stall the spies long enough for the cavalry to arrive. And Sgt Stryker tears up his resignation letter.
