Above - Earl Dwire is given an assist by Harry Carey Sr. in GHOST TOWN (Commodore, 1936), one of the half-dozen B grade oaters Carey did for Ajax and Commodore in the mid 1930s. Dwire portrayed a toothless old codger and miner who gets ambushed by no-goods Lee Shumway, Chuck Morrison and Roger Williams. Carey saves Dwire's life ... and his stack of greenbacks.

Ruth Elise Fraser (1917 - 1976) was the daughter of prolific director and jack-of-all-trades Harry L. Fraser. And in the mid 1930s, she did a few films using the screen name of "Ruth Findlay". Ruth was married to actor Lou Yaconelli / Earl Douglas, the brother of B western comic and sidekick Frank Yaconelli.
