Synopsis for "Murder of a Peddler"
A pushcart peddler is killed in a drive-by shooting. His young son, Tony, is accused of being responsible by a man who claims to have witnessed the event, though the boy pleads he is innocent. Later, in juvenile court, Betty Bates announces she'll handle Tony's case and gets permission to search for clues.
In his father's house, she finds a note that proves that Tony's father was being extorted by the gangster Jerry Corona, who was also the "witness" in the case. Betty starts to pocket the note, but is thwarted when Jerry's thugs appear and knock her out. She awakens in the thugs' car moments later, right as they toss her out over a cliff and drive away. Thankfully, Betty lands softly in the branches of a tree and, with the help of some boy scouts, is able to borrow a bike so she could ride to Corona's known headquarters. Corona was currently giving testimony at the trial, so only one lackey was left to guard the hideout. Betty took him out easily, and then searched until she found the very same gun that had been used to kill Tony's dad.
At the courthouse, the judge was just about to give his verdict, which didn't seem to look good for young Tony, when Betty suddenly rushed into the court room. She showed the incriminating gun to the court and explained it belonged to Jerry Corona. Corona grabbed the gun in a rage and tried taking Betty hostage, but she took him by surprise and knocked the weapon out of his hands. Tony then ran up and delivered a knock-out punch to the gangster "for his father". The judge dismisses Tony's case.
