Dancing The Varsity Drag
A sequence of shots illustrates dance crazes of the 1920s. People of all ages, indoors and out, boogie twenties style. A woman dances with a deck full of sailors. Scenes of wild exuberance. In one shot dancers have numbers on their backs: a contest. Two shots of all female bands playing. A line of tap dancers performs for a crowd. Soundtrack plays: "The Varsity Drag."
