Freddy Tobin needs a new dance partner with his wife becoming pregnant. His managers make up a nationwide college search for a replacement and decide to insert ringer Patty Marlow (Lana Turner) into a college. She is joined by secretary Eve (Ann Rutherford) who is there to do all the work. Her eager reporter classmate 'Pug' Braddock (Richard Carlson) smells a conspiracy with the contest. He's completely right and intends to investigate.
This is a fun premise. It's screwball silliness. Lana Turner is still a teenager and there is a softness to her sexiness. I do wish that they hold out on the secret a lot longer. He should find out during the first contest selection. They could have a fight then and spend the rest of the movie reconciling.
