Eventually, of course she gets her man (for absolutely no one in the movie seems able ever to say no to Miss Rutherford), and the police apologize quite handsomely...
Strip Off the Bumpers. Drag racing, that dangerous pastime of speed-happy youngsters, has grown up a bit in the last few years.

Almost singlevoicedly, Gambling comes as close as anyone can to transforming New York Radioland into a single, small town community.
