In this instance the woman is Vinnie McLeod (played by | Grace George), a gallant, kindly woman who is the publisher of a fast-waning newspaper. She be- | friends a vagabond newspaperman | (played by James Cagney), and, as | her devoted reporter and editor, he | fights her battles to clean up a small | town.
