Shortly thereafter, Bernie goes to the offices of the Sportsman's Gazette , where editor James F. "Pop" Morgan shows Bernie an editorial which he has written denouncing the sports gambling syndicate. Pop and his secretary, Elise Pringle, who are secretly working for the syndicate, express their concern about Pop's adopted son, Dave Fowler, a deputy district attorney crusading against the syndicate. Meanwhile, on board a train, Dave is listening to a radio broadcast of the football game, when one of the players, Speed Lacey, whom Bernie paid to throw the game, begins fighting on the field with teammate Jerry Muller. After their team loses, Jean Lacey, Speed's sister, and Jean's friend, Lorraine, offer Speed their sympathy, but he rushes off to ask Bernie for more money. When Bernie refuses, Speed asks Pop for $10,000 in exchange for evidence against the syndicate, and Pop tells him to return the next day. Meanwhile, Bernie plots to frame Jerry for Speed's murder. Impersonating Jean on the phone, Elise convinces Jerry to come to Speed's home. When he arrives, the two players fight, and Bernie's henchman, Mike Burns, shoots Speed with Jerry's gun.
