Jul. 24, 1953 - 24-7-53 The young cowboys of Dartmoor. Lasso lessons - Ex-South American cowpuncher Ross Salmon is holding a two weeks course for would-be cowboys on his School for Cowboysat Longdown, near Exster, where he hopes to start a cattle range. He plans to rear cattle in real ranching style on 25,000 of Dartmoor's lonely acres in an effort to put to use some of the wastelands of Britain. To do it he is teaching the boys to ride cowboy style and to do everything that a real Western Cowboy has to do which is rather different to the Cowboys of the Sereen. Keystone Photo Shows: Dartmoor goes Wild West. Hill billies echo over the moor to the accompaniment of guitars and mouth organs round the cowboy's camp fire.
