THUMB-NAIL THEME Paul Porter and his pal in slippery deals, Daddy Moffat, had dropped into the old home town where Porter was raised and driven out years before. They looked the old town over. Not much to look at. Paul had found his old chum, Holt Langdon, cashier of the bank and publisher of the newspaper, in serious trouble to the tune of twenty-five thousand embezzled dollars. He had tried to save Holt and hadn't succeeded, though when Holt committed suicide he had rearranged the gun and put a fuse neatly as evidence that the man died defending the bank. One good deed, and that seemed like all there was to do. Holt's sister, Paul's old sweetheart, Margaret Langdon, had three babies at her apron-strings. "Nothing more to do," said Paul to Daddy Moffat. "Let's go!" So they got in a trembling flivver for a good, graceful exit from the town. Then an idea invaded Paul's mind. Crook he might be, and married Margaret might be — but he had to see her once! So he left Daddy Moffat in front of the house and went in. He came out running and slapped his pal on the back. "Daddy, she's not married! We're going to stay here and go straight — and run her paper for her!" he shouted. Moffat looked at him superciliously and inquired, "Say,where d'ya get that 'we' stuff?" But Paul Porter's nimble mind was made up, at last. He was going straight! This is one of the pivotal situations in "The Man Under Cover." a Universal Special Attraction, bringing Herbert Rawlinson as a star to the Theatre next
