The story

Rebecca and her stepfather Henry Kipper (William Demarest) are among a crowd of parents and daughters hoping to win a singing contest aimed at finding "Little Miss America." The winner will represent a cereal company in an advertising campaign. The first entrant has an unappealing voice; the second girl barely begins to sing before she is silenced by "mic fright". To give Rebecca an edge, Henry attempts (unsuccessfully) to sweet-talk the station's receptionist, who is nevertheless charmed by Rebecca.
