Napoleon of nonsense, Gulliver of glee, hijacker of the blues, king of komics, he-man of hilarity, foremost funster of them all.

John works at the University Book Store and secretly adores Julia. When a letter he wrote is accidentally mailed, Julia reads claims that he is a fraternity man and track star and rushes to see him. In reality, John is neither, and Julia's boyfriend Spike is the real athlete. Using psychology and a wrestling hold, Julia persuades John to enter the track meet, but Spike still frightens him.
