CADETS ON PARADE
(Columbia)
N which Freddie Bartholomew is forced to play a repulsive young hero who runs away from Military Academy
because he always drops the football when his coach gives it to him to hold. He is befriended by a toothy young newsboy, who starts making a man of him, but unfortunately doesn’t quite finish the process, for when the Poor Little Newsboy is indicted for kidnapping him, Freddie shows the stuff of which he is made by sitting silent and jerking his Adam’s Apple rapidly up and down, which disconcerts the Poor Little Newsboy so much that he pleads guilty. Whereupon, both young heroes» go back to Military Academy, and instead of being publicly flogged, they graduate magna cum laude and with well-built characters.
