[1] John Conroy is a Special Prosecutor given extraordinary powers to break up the crime syndicate in a large midwestern town.

A local journalist, Jerry McKibbon, is sympathetic to this but feels Conroy isn't experienced enough to handle the task.

McKibbon demands that Matt break with the mobster or he'll inform his son, John Conroy, of the duplicity.

She contacts McKibbon in order to exact revenge but is chased away by Eichelberger's henchmen.

Ackerman then hires a hit man himself whereby McKibbon is lured to a boxing match where he can be shot.

The final scene is at the Olympic Auditorium, the premiere boxing arena in Los Angeles for many years.
