Stick horse race ends in draw and lessons learned
A town youth, Jim, battles a faster rival in a three hundred yard stick race. An ambush of partridges spooks the crowd, Jim’s wild horse throws him, but the big rider’s bet is overturned as the crowd calls it a draw. The episode ends with Jim vowing future control and the crowd restoring order.
