Anyways, near the beginning, just before this one race between the Rangers and the Army, this grizzled-looking scout, and this one Indian, are making something of a wager, over if this one particular man will win the race. They check him out, with the Indian taking the man\\\'s hat off, looking at his hair, accepting the bet. When the racer asks what\\\'s going on, the scout says \\\"You get to keep your hair if you win.\\\" Racer falls off his horse within thirty seconds, at which point, the Indian goes after him, to \\\"Get his scalp\\\". The racer, while terrible on a horse, is good on foot, manages to outrun him.

After this, every time the Indian sees the racer, said Indian goes after him, prompting the racer to keep running, and hiding, even locking himself in a guarded cell, to try to keep his hair.

At the end, however, the Indian does, seem to, get the drop on the racer, who says \\\"Help yourself\\\", taking their hat off. The Indian\\\'s look of triumph quickly changes to shock, when he sees that the racer is now bald. The racer holds up a razor blade, laughs, and says \\\"I shaved this morning.\\\"

It was also remade in 1941 os Saddlemates, with a very similar situation between two of the characters, an Indian wanting one man\\\'s scalp, and the man later shaving it off at the end.

It was later remade as Saddlemates in 1941, with the same sort of thing going on.
