THE DEATH OF HUMPTY DUMPTY

Bert Hardin, managing editor of a Broadway sports and theatrical paper, sees a nightclub comedian fall (or was he pushed) to his death and is the recipient of the body. Links are forged to horse racing, bookies and a syndicate for mobster rule; a dancer is killed and another snatched and Hardin, gambling against the gamblers, saves a life and winds it up for the police. Flashy.
