A brilliant supporting cast fills out the picture.
 The other feature is Betty Coed" promising laughter, youthful college romance and the excitement of keen campus rivalries.
 With the lifting story of car nival trouper who went to college, Betty Coed" is said to embrace all the entertainment elements demanded of motion pictures to- day. Rhythm and romance key note the finn while hilarity and heart-thross alternate in effective degree
 Pert Jean Porter poItrays the title role, with Shirley Mills, Will ian Mason and Rosemary La Planche playing leading parts Jan Savitt popular orchestra leader, and his band are importantly fea- tured.
