Murder Goes to College

The policy-racket reaches it lean, bony fingers into the ivy-towers of a large university and the underworld trying to "beat the numbers-racket" with applied mathematics. One of the professors, Tom Barry (Earle Foxe) is murdered in the Dean's office. He had worked out a system that enabled gangster Strike Belno (Buster Crabbe) to beat the numbers-racket and then double-crossed him. This makes Belno a suspect.
