Charlie Rogers, an embittered orphan who makes
his living as a singer-guitarist, is involved in a motorcycle accident with
a jeep driven by Joe Lean. Annoyed at Charlie's shouted advances to
his daughter Cathy, Joe runs Charlie off the highway, wrecking his
motorcycle and guitar. Maggie, who owns a carnival where Cathy is an
assistant, promises to have the motorcycle repaired and the guitar replaced;
in the meantime, she hires Charlie as a roustabout at her carnival.
Although Charlie is unhappy with the work, his increasing fondness for Cathy
keeps him on the job after the motorcycle and guitar are returned.
Charlie soon becomes a featured attraction as a singer, and the carnival,
which was on the verge of bankruptcy, begins to make money.
Harry Carver, an unscrupulous businessman, makes
Charlie an offer to perform in a nightclub for more money and, after an
argument with Joe and squabbles with Cathy and Maggie, he accepts.
Charlie is an immense success, but Maggie's carnival is again on the verge
of closing. Cathy comes to one of Charlie's performances, and they
realize that they are in love. Charlie leaves Carver and returns to
Maggie's carnival in time to save it. |
