CRAIG<br>
Big news! My saviour has arrived!<br>
My intuition's never been so strong!<br>
Big News! My career has been revived<br>
All I needed was a snippy, pissy Yankee all along!<br>
Take this superstitious city, add one little Jew from Brooklyn<br>
Plus a college education and a mousy little wife,<br>
And big news! Real big news!<br>
That poor sucker saved my life!<br>
<br>
So give him fangs, give him horns,<br>
Give him scaly, hairy palms!<br>
Have him droolin' out the corner of his mouth!<br>
He's a master of disguise!<br>
Check those bug-out creepy eyes!<br>
Sure, that fella's here to rape the whole damned South!<br>
They'll be bangin' down my door,<br>
Yellin' "More, Craig, more!"<br>
"Call for justice! We need justice!<br>
Beat the bastard! Kill the bum!"<br>
Big news! Real big news!<br>
My saviour has finally come!<br>
<br>
According to reports obtained exclusively by this reporter,<br>
Prosecutor Dorsey has the villain in his sights.<br>
A highly ranking unnamed source in this investigation tells me<br>
Leo Frank's the only likely culprit in this case.<br>
Anyone with any information on the suspect, Leo Frank,<br>
Should contact this reporter care of the Atlanta Georgian.<br>

CRAIG<br>
Look! You just scribble it down and it covers the town like molasses or mud!<br>
Look! For us drunken ol' bums, opportunity comes in a magical flood!<br>
Look! You might never be sure if your motives are pure, but your profits are clear!<br>
Look! You were down and depressed, now you're ridin' the crest of the scoop of the year!<br>
<br>
DORSEY<br>
Jim Conley. I got a piece of paper here says you spent a little time on the chain gang.<br>
<br>
CONLEY<br>
That right?<br>
<br>
DORSEY<br>
Twice, according to this. <br>
And the second time it says here you were out with the road gang <br>
and you just up and disappeared.<br>
<br>
CONLEY<br>
Well, you know, my time was about up.<br>
<br>
DORSEY<br>
Really? I think you had a few more months to serve. <br>
You know what that makes you, don't you?<br>
<br>
CONLEY<br>
Lucky?<br>

DORSEY<br>
I was going to say an escaped convict. Now, what should we do about that?<br>

CONLEY<br>
What was that you was askin' me about Mr Frank?<br>
