In this fictional-story short (which takes Self listings out of the equation), George Stoll(as Georgie Stoll) and his hot-swing orchestra, and the band’s singer, Virginia Dale, appearing in this short under her real name, Virginia Paxton, are in a radio station building hoping to get an audition. Recognizing the president of a broadcasting company,Royal C. Cummings (Maurice Cass), as he enters the elevator, Stoll and band members, with their instruments, enter it with him. THey toss out the operator and proceed to audition for the outraged Cummins , while making many up-and-down trips on the elevator. Once off the elevator he summons the police who promptly arrive and promptly arrest the studio band. Georgie Stoll (as he was most frequently billed) and his band get the gig, and a contract. The singing of Virginia Dale nee Virginia Paxton didn’t hurt their chances any at all. |
