He is bewildered. Thinking that she was not going to come, he had spent all his money. He writes to his father for money. Father wires a flat refusal. Something must be done to raise money enough to see him through Regatta Day in good style. He pawns his best clothes and all the extra clothes of his two roommates, leaving the three nothing but what they are wearing. His chums discover his trick, and while he sleeps, they take his only suit and hock it. In the morning, he finds it out and tells them that the money for the clothes and the ticket, were in the pocket of his suit. He explains to them the only way to right matters is for them to loan him one of their suits and he will pawn the only remaining suit. They hesitate, then agree. He puts on the suit and behind their backs, takes the aforementioned money and tickets from under his mattress and with the suit, departs. He pawns the salt and with the money, takes his own suit out of pawn, takes off the borrowed suit and pawns that, thus giving him the money for all the clothes he originally pawned and the last and only suits of his roommates, and still has his own suit. He gets an automobile and meets his fiancée at the station and takes her out to the Regatta. Afterwards, he takes her to dinner. In the meantime, the boys are raving in their room in town, clothed in pajamas and swearing vengeance on Jack. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
