College Swing (1938) was made by Paramount to cash in on the Swing Music craze while showcasing plenty of their comedy stars.
The plot..
It is 1738 and the Alden family decides that if no Alden female passes the university's entrance exam within 200 years then ownership of their university will be turned over to the Guarantee Trust Company.
Fast forward to 1938, and ditsy Gracie Alden (Gracie Allen) is the last hope to keep the college in the family.
Sleazy Bud Brady (Bob Hope) offers to help Gracie cheat, for a price.
Gracie passes the exam, makes herself the Dean of Men, brings in a gaggle of kooky professors and turns the school into one big swinging party.
Of course, there are those who suspect foul play and would like to stop the party, including the Guarantee Trust Company representative, Hurbert Dash (Edward Everett Horton), and his assistant George Jonas (George Burns).
And there are those who would like to stop the people who want to stop the party, including Bud (Hope) and his new love interest Mabel (Martha Raye).
Betty Grable (!), Jackie Coogan, and Skinnay Ennis play students who never seem to go to class and who are around basically to swing, sing and dance.
The film takes a short breather any time the star-crossed lovers, students Ginna Ashburn (Florence George) and Martin Bates (John Payne), come on to grieve over their romance being interrupted by circumstances.
Though the tone is slightly less kooky in these scenes, somehow their storyline does not interrupt the flow.
Look for the back of the head of a young Bob Cummings as the radio announcer in the finale.
His unique voice is unmistakable.
