Poor Second Feature
20 February 2018
Richard Arlen is a stunt driver. When Vinton Hayworth walks out, Arlen is promoted to race driver, and there's a fatality. He's found not responsible, but he's considered a rotter by Peggy Moran, whose ailing father has developed a new motor in collaboration with Andy Devine. Miss Moran doesn't like Arlen, so how are they going to prove the motor and get these two kids together?

It's a super-quick Universal B, distinguished only by some cut-in race-track photography. Andy Devine performs some decent clowning, but Miss Moran's line reading is erratic and Arlen is unengaged near the end of his starring days, ready to head off to Poverty Row in this programmer that has Second Feature written all over it.
