Plot summary
At Winsocki Military Academy, Bud Hooper is a cadet with a senior prom approaching. He writes a mash note and an invitation to a movie star, asking her to be his date, and he does not expect her to answer. The letter reaches the actress, who is reluctant to make the trip, and her publicity man, Jack O'Riley, who sees a stunt worth staging and tells her that appearing at the academy will boost her career. He persuades her to travel 3,000 miles to Winsocki. Bud's girlfriend, Helen Schlesinger, is at the academy as well, and complications follow when she turns up too.
