Backwoods mountain towns Rimrock and Big Bend have been the competitive rivals of Bench County for years, holding an annual cross-country foot race. Rimrock hasn't won in five years, and gambling on the race has left most pockets in the town quite empty. Travelling salesman Wilbur McMurtry (Donald O'Connor) is late for the Rimrock stage, and when Mayor Maribel Mathews (Marjorie Main) sees him catch up to it on foot, she arranges for Sheriff Sharkey Dolan (Joe Besser) to trump up charges on McMurtry and detain him for the big race. Literally a prisoner, Wilbur is hardly willing to be Rimrock's champion, that is, until he meets Maribel's niece Libby and the two quickly fall in love. But opponent Emory Tuttle has his eye on Libby too, and conspires with Big Bend Mayor Chauncey Martin to saboutage Wilbur on the day of the race.

Other Cast: Herbert Heywood (Judge), Harry Brown (Man in tree), William Sundholm, Monte Montague (Men in cafe), Francis Ford, Tommy Coats (Checkers), Francis Williams, John Beck, Lane Bradford, Johnny Carpenter, Al Murphy, Robert A. O'Neil, Jasper Palmer (Townsmen)

Other Crew: Bernard Herzbrun, Frank A. Richards (Art Directors), Ray Jeffers (Set Decorator), Rosemary Odell (Costume Design), Carmen Dirigo (Hair Stylist), Ken Weeks (Production Manager), Horace Hough (Assistant Director), Richard DeWeese (Sound), E. Brown (Grip), Clifford Kling (Still Photographer), Robert Rhea (Cameraman)

After the success of THE EGG AND I (1947), Universal quickly reteamed its 'Ma & Pa Kettle' costars Marjorie Main and Percy Kilbride in this Donald O'Connor song-and-dance showcase. FEUDIN' proved they had excellent chemistry, so the studio launched Main and Kilbride in the popular Ma and Pa Kettle film series.

Costar Fred Kohler Jr. ('Emory Tuttle') was the son of Three Stooges costar Fred Kohler (HORSES' COLLARS).

Featuring Moe, Larry and Curly
Released: 1940-12-27
Length: 18.00 min.

In this Stooge short, the boys are greeting card salesmen who try to help a wife by posing as her lovers. When her husband comes home, he sees the Stooges and chases them outside, where they hide in a line of people. Unfortunately for them, it''s a line to sign up for the Army! To make matters worse, their commanding officer is the jealous husband who they ran away from. While in training, they march in the opposite direction than their supposed to, run away from the husband, hide in bayonett practice dummies, and their commanding officer does bayonett practice on them! Then, when their on the battlefield, they accidentally give themselves a dose of laughing gas and get captured by the enemy. They make a mess of the enemey''s headquarters (while still on lauging gas), get bombed by their side, and ride off into the clouds on a bomb.
