Thrilling Crime Cases #46
The issue opens with a cover story about police using modern communications to combat crime, demonstrating how the dragnet spread by police can prove the downfall of criminals. "The Deadly Game" follows Greg Gayle, a big-game hunter in the city whose dangerous prey are criminals far more treacherous than grizzlies or rattlers, culminating in a rooftop confrontation where Gayle and police trap a gang of criminals. A subsequent story depicts a criminal scheme involving hidden gold at a location where crooks attempt to recover stolen loot, but their plans unravel when police close in and the criminals turn on one another, ultimately leading to their capture.
