 A murdered model, an estranged couple. a famous artist. and a sub- versive gang out gunning for a busy attorney make up the salient features of the co-hit on this thrilling program in "A Night Of Adventure" which features Tom Conway and introduces Audrey Long. who portrays his wife. Con- way depicts a brilliant young att torney who agrees to defend an artist suspected of murder, only to find himself against an array of stacked and damning evidence which might well convict him in- stead. Apparently irrefutable evi- dence is furnished by the attorneys enemies. while the fact that his estranged wife is in love with the suspected artist is common prop erty.
