Horses & Crime. The oat still thrives. CBS's Marshal Dillon (James Arness) now has one solid hour to thicken the air with Gunsmoke; and the imitable Paladin, clearly out to impress the FCC's rootin' tootin' Newton Minow, was reading a Dostoevsky novel during an episode of this year's Have Gun, Will Travel...
