_NRFPT_01_small.jpg) Daisy, a sophisticated New York chorus girl with a
"guardian," falls in love with Bill, a naive army private from Texas who
has gone A. W. O. L. to be with her. They decide to marry but,
halfway through the ceremony, he is arrested and sent off with his
regiment to France.
She decides to abandon her former life and takes a minor
job in the chorus. While rehearsing, she has a vision of Bill's
death, but the dance director brings her back to reality and she goes on
with her work.
