She establishes the Cheer Society and hires a ruffian named Bubbs as her secretary, along with three of his comrades. Her jilted fiancé, Homer Dean Chadwick, retaliates by founding a charity for impoverished chorus girls, and sparks Margie's jealousy when she sees him in the company of a former chorine named Flossy. Following a disastrous social event, which included Bubbs and his friends as guests, Margie realizes the folly of her endeavor and agrees to marry Homer. Written by AFI See less
