Milton Krtms. the author ef the
original story upon which is based
"Dude Ranch." the Jack Oakle
comedy-smash at Warner Bros.
Elslnore today, is a. young man
who got a taste of his "atmos
phere" before he Incorporated it
into his hook rather than prac
tice what so many authors : do,
namely, putting into words real
ism - where realism never existed
before. ;
As a reporter for a Los An
geles psper Krims was sent out to
cover a . government war with
smugglers on the Mexican border.
In this way he gained eye-witness
knowledge of the practices "of
western outlaws of our modern
times. - . r
When he wrote his humorous
book, "The Lone Rider of the Mo-
Jave." he portrayed faithfully the1
deeds and didoes of the despera
does so familiar In fiction and
films. But Krims went fui her snd
conceived the Idea of setting these
characters In the background of s
"dude ranch" a place where va
cation lng eastern folks spend their
hours hoping to see the real lite
of the real west. .
In the story a visiting troupe ef
traveling actors, headed by Jack
Oakle, puts en some scenes in the
Tlemity of & dude ranch operated
by Stuart Erwln. The guests are
much inspired by the thrilling
bravado:: ef the two-gun Oakle,
and the 'hoax builds business for
Erwln until a group of real out
laws arrive on i the scene fresh
from a bank holdup in the nearest
town. That's, where the plot thick
ens and -double-thickens, i with
scores 'of ' smuslnc situations
thrown in for laughs. -
