When Dorothy Winston, the daughter of an industrialist, arranges to work on
a newspaper in which her father places a substantial amount of advertising,
Joe Madison, the reporter son of the paper's editor, offers to show her the
ropes.
A gunman employed by Mike Corney lands in jail, and
Dorothy succeeds in interviewing him, getting him to divulge the whereabouts
of a canceled check that will link Corney to Patterson, a corrupt political
boss. Dorothy and Joe get the check, and Joe telephones his father to
urge him to print an exposé of Patterson. Corney recovers the check,
however, and Patterson institutes a ruinous libel suit against the paper.
Dorothy gets the check back and obtains photographic evidence to further
incriminate Patterson and Corney. Dorothy and Joe decide to write the
story of their life with each another. |
