Almost unique among college comedies, this actually starts in a class room, where Professor Andy Clyde is teaching. In walks Harry Gribbon, the son of a former football star. An alumnus has offered to donate $250,000 if the team scores a touchdown in the big game, so they try to recruit Gribbon. It turns out he cares more about whippoorwills and eating pie than football, but he is vampable by Clyde's daughter, Marjorie Beebe.
There are some good shorts among Mack Sennett's first couple of years of sound production, and this is one of them. The back-and-forth between Clyde and Gribbon is amusingly bizarre.
