That Toddlin' Town

When an oil company man offers to buy the Jot It Down Store, Lum and Abner conclude there must be oil underneath in this fun-for-fans flick.

Chester Lauck and Norris Goff continue the movie adventures of their long-running radio duo. It's given the full RKO treatment, which means the humor is not as gentle as usual, and the musical accompaniment more citified, as the fellows wind up in Chicago at a night club. Dick Elliott returns as Squire Skimp, but the roles are eked out from the RKO lot, With Florence Lake and Jack Rice from Edgar Kennedy's THE COMMON MAN series, and starlet Barbara Hale getting a credit on the second card. Other comedy performers include Grady Sutton, Andrew Tombes, and Vic Potel.
