Episode 54/55: The Contender (In two parts)

Good morning, Mr. Phelps. The man you're looking at is Charles Buckman, who is attempting to obtain a stranglehold on all forms of professional and amateur sports. If he succeeds, the US will be ostracized from the world community of athletics and our enemies handed a propaganda weapon of immeasurable value. Buckman's main financing comes from boxing. He works in association with this man, Dan Whelan, whose syndicate controls the betting on the fights Buckman rigs. Your mission, Jim, should you decide to accept it, is to eliminate Buckman and his plan once and for all. As always, should you or any of your IM Force be caught or killed, the secretary will disavow any knowledge of your actions. Please dispose of this recording in the usual manner. Good luck, Jim.
