Drue Van Allen (Barbara Stanwyck), in love with the driveling campus radical (Hardie Albright), is sent to Mexico to get over it by her choleric Army officer father.

Already the Vagabond has found the sleeping princess--and a beautiful one, too! Already--valiant fellow! --he has slain the fire-eyed dragon.
