Plot:
Two wealthy club-men, Billingsley and Stanhope, want to test a theory that their old school, Ivy, can make blue bloods out of Bowery toughs. They don't come any tougher and unpolished than the Bowery Boys, who are soon enrolled at Old Ivy. Biff Wallace, the college football hero, and Harold, editor of the school paper, are determined to keep the hallowed halls pure, while Katie Wayne, Penny, Candy Calin and other students are more than a bit dismayed to find the likes of Slip, Sach, Junior, Chuck and Butch in their midst. Sach mixes up some vitamins that make him athletically invincible in all sports. Soon, the football team, thanks to Sach (and no thanks to former BMC (Big Man on Campus) Biff) is undefeated and unbeatable. Unhappy about this, Biff aids Big Dave and his sexy girlfriend Candy in a proposition. Candy vamps Sach just before THE BIG GAME with STATE and lures him to Big Dave's place, where Dave knocks Sach out with dope. The questions now are: (1) will Biff confess so Sach can be rescued, (2) will Sach be rescued; and, (3) if Sach is rescued, can he get to the game in time to win it for Old Ivy?
