8077 Code SANIR Conductor 1492 Warner Bros.
Featuring Johnny Hines and Doris May
A comedy drama of unusual humor and charm.
Terrence O'Toole is a young Irishman who decides to seek his fortunes in America whence his father has returned after a brief sojourn in the United States some years before. Some very amusing native Irish scenes occur in the beginning of the subject. Later Terry is seen in the capacity of a motorman in a small American city The president and vice-president of the trolley company are each owners of forty-nine shares of the stock and the balance of control is vested in two other shares belonging to a Mr. Rosenthal, who has disappeared. Terry falls in love with the President's daughter (Doris May) and his suit is advanced by his rescue of her kid brother who is racing the trolley car in a diminutive, but perfect automobile.
Terry lives at a boarding house with forty-seven roomers and two baths, requiring tickets for Saturday night ablutions. The tricks employed by the boarders to beat their regular turns are uproariously funny.
Terry's father joins him and contributes very ably to the humor of the story as it expands. One of the funniest specialties in this or any other comedy is a masquerade roller skating carnival in which Terry plays the front legs and an inebriated friend the rear legs of a camel. The screamingly funny antics of this camel in the Camel Walk and other dances on roller skates convulse every audience.
Near the end of the story the ownership of the missing certificates is divulged in a dramatic manner and their prospective loss is narrowly averted in a thrilling effort of the senior O'Toole, who is rescued from a burning building by Terry in a thrilling scene of danger that grips every spectator.
A splendid subject combining humor and pathos, comedy and near-tragedy, without a dull moment from start to finish.

Because of his intimacy with the Prince of Wales, Beau Brummel is able to influence his creditors and make himself the arbiter of English society. Women flock to his rooms in the vain effort to pick up the fragments of heart hiding its ache behind the fripperies of clothes. At the height of his popularity, his salient wit makes an undiplomatic remark, which precipitates him into a deluge of misfortune. How
