Synopsis
At the examination board, Betty asks the men if they do acrobatics or performing arts. Unfortunately, after they ended up trying a song '(Goodnight, Ladies)', Betty then auditions people to become bandleaders for tonight's college dance. She finally discovers a cleaning woman as the leader of the band by conducting and singing her song. Betty asks Sally to play the rest of the song continuously by annoying badly the principal of the college (Sally calls him '"professor"' at the end of the film).
Notes
* It is the first short film where Betty's appearance was updated. She now has a more human-like head and a taller body. This was probably done to modernize Betty by distancing from her previous flapper-like image as seen in her previous short films.
* The titular character somewhat resembles an image of Betty Grable.
