Directed by Lloyd Bacon | Starring: Lucille Ball, William Holden, Janis Carter, James Gleason
A bookie uses a phony real estate business as a front for his betting parlor.

When Ellen learns of some friends who are about to lose their homes, she unwittingly drafts her boss into developing a new low-cost housing development.
