Synopsis by Dan Pavlides
Track star Frank Merrill stars as Jack Melford in this hackneyed melodrama. Jack wins the track meet at the local college before being notified his father is on his deathbed. He arrives to find his father has died and left all his money to Dr. Delhi (Alphonse Martell), the shady physician who was treating him. Jack discovers the doctor uses hypnotism to victimize his patients and steal their money. He exposed the crook and gives the despicable doctor a dose of justice and revenge. Margaret Landis, Milford Morante, and May Sherman co-star with Otto Lederer and Kathleen Calhoun in this feature written specifically to highlight Merrill's athletic talents.
