Beatles, weeding down upon the underworld of Smashed Ganglin' comes the mysterious, all-powerful character who is a problem to the police, but a coupeser for law. In reality, Dan Garrett, a rookie patrolman, loved by everyone but suspected by none of being the blue beetle.

As the blue beetle, he hides behind a screen of mask and a suit of impenetrable blue chain armor, flexible as silk, but stronger than steel. Today's episode of the Fox feature, the Blue Beetle, is the second part of a story entitled, Two Rackets in One.

In the first episode, several trucks belonging to the inner city trucking company have been wrecked or damaged by fire. The head of the independent S&M poultry company has been killed in an accident after eating some poison mushroom in a restaurant owned by Nick Martinell.

And both the inner city trucking company and the S&M poultry company have refused to join or pay tribute to so-called protective association which Dan Garrett believes are operated by Giulio Martinez, wealthy brother of Nick. Also on the same day, J. L. Williamson, president of the Drovers and Provision Dealers Bank, of which Giulio Martinez is the director,

has been killed by a bomb attached to the starter of his motor car. As the episode ended, The blue beetle, who interrupted a gay party at Giulio Martin's home in the hope of bluffing some compromising admission out of him, is involved in a fight with Giulio's siling.

As he is chasing Giulio, he is tripped up by a lariat in the hands of Mexican Pete. The crooks, before fleeing, gag and bind him and string him up by the feet from a large crossbeam as the sound of police sirens fade in.
