IT'S THE CHEER LEADER OF ALL SCREEN MUSICALS!

Synopsis

Winfield College students rebel against a stodgy professor who won't permit "swing" music be played in their varsity show. They appeal to a big Broadway alumnus and have him direct their show. What they don't know is that this "star's" last three shows were flops.
