Never rising above its environment, the Fred Rath and Lee Sands farce is about a couple of Coney Island tin-horns, Benny Baker and Sid Melton, who whitewash an elephant and pass him off, in the disapproved carnival style, as a sacred and genu-wine Indian white pachyderm. Things get more elaborate, but the plot is never much thicker than the coat of whitewash...
Previously announced nominations for the Eastern squad include N.Y.U.'s Sid Tanenbaum and Frank Mangispane. Dartmouth's Bob Myers, St. John's Harry Boykoff, Temple's Tem Joyce, colgate's Ernie, Vanderwaghe, Pittaburgh's Harry Zeller, Muhienberg's Harry Deaovan, Navy's Ken Shugart, and spectacular Eirnie Calverley of Rhode Island State...
