Quiz--Lone Star Fifer
He appeared in dozens of B-pictures or serials, most of them with contemporary, usually metropolitan, settings. But in "Man of Conquest," set at the time of the Alamo, he played the fife for Sam Houston at the Battle of San Jacinto. Who was he?

Right, Lightning. Now can you tell me what song the fifer played. It was Sam Houston's "battle march."

It sure was "Come to the Bower." Brilliant work!
Now for the grand prize can you name the film serial that used the song for its title music?
Clues, if needed will follow later.

KING OF THE TEXAS RANGERS ! ! ! !
I hope the grand prize is a DVD copy of DAREDEVILS OF THE WEST
