Plot: Henry Blondy Burton, a country boy, goes to college, where he meets Polly Starr, a pretty co-ed. Blondy goes through the usual ordeals, but finally blossoms forth into a full fledged freshman. A college prank in which Blondy disguises himself as a girl and calls upon Polly threatens to result disastrously. The faculty suspend Blondy and his boy companions for a week. The deciding football game of the season is due. Blondy, as substitute, is given an opportunity for regular service. Polly tells him she wishes him to do his best, for to win plaudits on the football field would be to win a double victory. By a sensational play, Blondy wins the game for his team.—Moving Picture World synopsis
