The story

Henry Workman, a mogul of the film studio Monarch Pictures, is forced to recast the lead of his new musical film after Toddy Tobin, the dancing partner and wife of star Freddy Tobin, discovers she is pregnant. In an attempt to salvage the production, press agent Joe Drews devises a scheme of staging a dance contest at a small Midwestern college in order to find a replacement. Patty Marlow, the daughter of esteemed vaudevillian Pops Marlow, is planted in the competition to be the winner of the contest.
