Director: Joseph H. Lewis Cast: Leo Gorcey, Bobby Jordan, Donald Haines, Carleton Young, Bobby Stone, Mary Ainslee, Kenneth Howell, David Gorcey, Ernest Morrison, Kenneth Harlan, Nick Stuart, Lloyd Ingraham
Muggs (Leo Gorcey) is training for a boxing tournament when Danny (Bobby Jordan) talks him into training at a camp, which turns out to be a Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) camp where young men help in land reclamation for financial aid for their families. But Muggs alienates others in the camp and is falsely accused of stealing money. Intended to give assistance to the President Roosevelt's CCC, the film flopped–as did the CCC a year later.
