here be the king of comedy and hal roach and on the downslide . this be a very low budget film and a continuation of the series star william tracy and joe sawyer which be usually the bottom of the double feature at the local theater . i first saw tracy a misto bottome in brother rat and think he be wonderful . he have the look of a mischievous child and oh and that voice . he continue to look much young than he actually be but in this film he be begin to show his age . the plot and what there be and revolve around the effort of a reporter to prove himself to his publisher who be the father of his girlfriend . the finale be a mess . it be the bad type of slapstick with everybody run on and off a stage and fall down and be boffed on the head and generally cause mayhem . it be date even in 1948. roach make a career from this type of humor but the time have change and audience be not buy it . don not get me wrong . i like both tracy and the excellent joe sawyer but this wasn not up to their comedic talent . it not a total loss but come pretty close .
