Tin Hoss Synopsis

A neighborhood kids' club stretching across races and classes (but no girls allowed) hears "President" Denny's summoning bell and tumbles into the top-secret clubhouse for their latest round of (mis-)adventures. This time they get into hot water including Plaster of Paris ingestion, invading females and the attempted rehabilitation of a broken down old jalopy. Eventually they stir such havoc that the police, not to mention a lot of angry mothers, come a-running. Begun in 1922, Hal Roach's "Our Gang" comedies, featuring multiracial children's antics, were such a hit that they inspired blatant imitations from other producers. This was the last of several such "Hey Fellas!" two-reelers created by fledgling First Division Pictures, which would soon turn from producing movies to distributing them regionally (primarily western and exploitation movies) for another decade. - Dennis Harvey

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.
