Dunn might be said to be taking as
quick . step downward as he took to

general run of Dunn bad girl" films
in its story Of Q girl in love with q
boy in love and opposing factions in the
form of Q lying pal with melodra-
matte climax Of the boy In love saving
the girl from a burning building.
In ali this film the most interesting
part Is the rough and tumble fight

In which they bump their way down a
couple Of flights Of stairs. Zasu Pitts
even forgets to be funny in the meshes
Of sentimentality, and when she falls

finding that Minna Gombell is more

with the announcement that Jimmy and
Boots are to be married and Mac and
Zasu begin telling him what a sap he is
