George Barbier plays the part of “Buddy’ Rogers’' father, a pro- saic, middle-aged business man, and leads the yarn through unex- plored comic territory when he chucks office affairs to the wind and enrolls as a college freshman in an effort to straighten out his son’s love affairs. 1 In addition to Barbier the sup- | porting cast includes Barbara Kent, Grace Bradley, Getty Grable, Dave | Chasen, Eric Blore, Erik Rhodes, ‘and twelve young entertainers from | the stage, | night clubs.
