Bless you for putting this on You Tube. I used to watch this on Saturdays as a girl, and I've been looking for it for years. Thank you for the thrill!!
The Clark Gable lookalike was Tom Neal, who was also a Golden Gloves boxing champion. Once he assaulted actor Francet Tone when he caught him dating Neal's girlfriend Barbara Peyton. Neal also played comic strip pilot Bruce Gentry in a Columbia serial. He would later be sentenced to a prison term for killing his wife in a domestic quarrel.
Francis Gifford was such a beauty, and athletic, and made some very good films later, it was a terrrible thing was left so bably injured after a auto accident in 1948, that left her with life long injuries. I love watching the cliff hanger again thanks. RIP Francis 1994, yes she was Frank Gifford's sister.
Having seen "Panther Girl of the Kongo" (1955) on TV as a kid in the '60s, it is funny to discover Republic simply remade Jungle Girl from the '40s. Maybe the name change was for legal reasons.

Oh, Jungle Girl. Where did you get your quick-drying hair? I always did like the athletic type.
