But the man who finally comes, a one-time college athlete now turned bum, picks out the only engaged girl in the crowd as the object of his affection. Needless to say, the fact that the man to whom she is engaged happens to be the bum's sole college friend stops both of them only long enough to provide adequate running time for the film, and, of course, to get that picnic...
