Plot

Determined to uncover the identity of the mysterious leader of a juvenile extortion racket, the gang sets up a crusading newspaper called The Greenpoint Press. The kids gratefully accept the help of a pleasant, well-spoken youngster named Frank, little suspecting that he is the duplicitous boss of the dreaded Gas House Gang. Only after Frank's henchmen have taken Froggy for a "ride" (a harmless but painful one) are the kids able to expose the villain and save the day.

Cast

The Gang

Additional cast

  • Darryl Hickman as Frank
  • Freddie Chapman as Gas House Kid
  • Vincent Graeff as Gas House Kid
  • James Gubitosi as Gas House Kid

Notes

Juanita Quigley reprises her earlier guest character of "Sally" from 1940's The New Pupil though here Quigley is the female lead and a regular member of the gang — the only episode in the MGM era with someone other than Darla Hood or Janet Burston.
