Frederick Morgan Taylor (April 17, 1903 – February 16, 1975) was an American hurdler, winner of three Olympic medals. [1]
Morgan Taylor, from Sioux City, Iowa, competed in both track and field and football at Grinnell College.[2] At the American trials for the 1924 Summer Olympics, he broke the world record in the 400 m hurdles on two occasions, making him a favourite for the Olympic gold. In Paris, he broke his World Record again, with a margin of 1.4 seconds to win the gold. However, he had knocked over a hurdle and - because of rules in effect in 1924 - he could not become the World Record holder. Because the second-place finisher was disqualified, the third finisher (and silver medallist) became owner of the new World Record.[3]
Taylor again qualified for the 1928 and 1932 Olympics, winning a bronze medal on both occasions, with the titles won by Lord Burgley and Bob Tisdall. At his third Olympics, he was honoured for his achievements by carrying the American flag during the opening ceremony of the Games.[4]

Plot: Det. Sgt. Mark Dixon always wanted to be something his old man wasn't: a guy on the right side of the law. But for a good guy, he's awfully vicious. After several complaints over his roughing people up, his boss, Insp. Nicholas Foley, demotes him. Foley tells him he's a good man, but needs to get his head on straight and be more like Det. Lt. Thomas, who has just gotten a promotion. Meanwhile, Tommy Scalise has an illegal dice game going and is looking to make a sucker out of the rich Ted Morrison, who was brought in by Ken Paine and his beautiful wife Morgan. She figures out too late her husband is using her as a decoy. Paine strikes her when she refuses to play along. The chivalrous Morrison intervenes but Paine knocks him out cold. That seems to be the worst of it, but later it turns out the guy is dead; and Paine looks guilty. Soon Dixon has fallen in love with Morgan - but not before losing his temper again and committing a terrible deed that he tries to cover up. Morgan's father, a tale-spinning taxi driver, may take the rap for it. It's up to Dixon to try to pin the blame on Scalise.
