Scared Stiff Synopsis
Two college boys vie with each other to make the most trouble in college. They have a large push-ball larger than the average sized man, which they push around town, breaking everything in their path. They finally land in the principal's office, where they are reprimanded and expelled from college. Disconsolate, they enter a cabaret, where they get into a lot of trouble on account of an impudent clam-shell. The clam-shell bounces from Al Alt's plate, skips along the floor and lands down a lady's back. After he rescues it, it decides to pinch a lady's leg. This is too much for the proprietor and he throws them out. Sitting on the curbstone, they hear cries for help and discover a charming little lady in deep distress. They find out what the trouble is and learn that her relatives are trying to scare her out of the house which she has inherited from her grandfather. They decide to help her. Many ghostly and ghastly things happen to scare the boys away, but they stick and win the home for the little lady.
Trail of the Rails Synopsis
