Horne and an uncredited Buster Keaton.Ronald (Buster Keaton) is valedictorian of his high school, and a scholar. The bookish Ronald gives his valedictorian speech on "The Curse of Athletics", claiming that athletics are useless and stand in the way of learning. The object of his affections, Mary, prefers dumb jocks, so she rejects poor Ronald, preferring Jeff the athlete.Ronald won't give up, however. He follows Jeff and Mary to local Clayton College. Determined to win Mary's love, he tries out for various sports, making a fool of himself at both baseball and track and field. Finally, the kindly dean gets Ronald a spot on the rowing team. Can Ronald win the big race, and win Mary?Suspiciously similar to Harold Lloyd's college- and college-sports themed comedy, The Freshman.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); }) | |

Accidental Pervert: A gang of bullies catch Ronald in a blanket and are flipping him up in the air. He keeps flying up to the open window of the ladies' dorm supervisor, who is changing. She thinks Ronald is a Peeping Tom. By the end of the race Ronald has managed to get the yacht's rudder tied to his waist and sticking out from behind like a tail. He accidentally pokes a couple of ladies' bottoms. | |
