As a result, the names of the two main characters were changed to Chico & Pablo. It was done very sloppily & was quite obvious even to the most benighted viewer. I’m surprised that they had to be changed back since, presumably, the change was made to the 16 mm TV prints only. Either the 35 mm have been lost or the change of names was done for other reasons that I am unaware of.

She was the lovely Kitty O'Day in the Monogram series and was in a load of b-movies during her career. PLUS she was married to good ol' Robert Lowery of serial and other b movie fame. Alas we lost her in 2005 but she had a great run.
