Ray Walston, Marc Connelly, Anne Jackson and Murray Ham ilton co-star in famed p:-oducei--dlrector Joshua Logan's first Mansfield production for War ner Bros The comedy is about a series of crises at a West Coast col lege when a matrimonially-minded girl enrolls there.

There are amusing convpliea-j tions when she wages a persist ent campaign to entrap the studious star of the team, even using the unwitting aid of two professors.
