For the Love of Mike Synopsis
Gladys and Sadie are finally back from their trip to Europe. Gladys meets Mike, a young but superstitious prizefighter who won't fight in his upcoming bout because it will be his 13th one. Since Jerry is his manager and Jimmy is his trainer, Gladys decides to try to help him get past his superstition and fight in the match.
An Amateur Devil Synopsis
Carver Endicott, a young sophisticate, is rejected by his fiancée for being too foppish and dull. When she feigns an interest in his father, Carver attempts to disgrace his family name by working as a farmhand and later as a busboy in a hotel. However, the newspapers only praise him for his self-sacrificing principles; and finding that he cannot bring shame to the family through menial labor, he takes up with a notorious actress. But when this maneuver also fails, he returns to his former fiancée, who has no further complaint about his being an inexperienced dullard.
"For the Love of Mike" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "An Amateur Devil" offers its own unique cult appeal.
