ME, SHELL SCOTT,
interested in the stock market?

I wouldn't know a put or take option from a convertible debenture.

But this big industrialist had hired me handsomely to find out who was buying a certain stock that should have been worthless, and why. So I took a nice, round figure—Doody's—and hied me out to consult the only Big Board I knew anything about, the tote board at Hollywood Park, hoping I wouldn't come up with the shorts.

Oddly, this broke the case wide open. I killed a hood whose shot mostly missed me. And soon everyone, including the fuzz, was off and running—in all directions.
