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.

There's Oil in Pine Ridge?

Two men from an oil syndicate from Chicago travel through Pine Ridge and play a prank on the town and try to make the town, mainly Lum & Abner, think there's oil underneath the Jot-Em Down Store. Lum has the town mortgage their houses and properties to get the oil derrick set up, but when the derrick doesn't come in, Lum & Abner travel to Chicago to get the syndicate to buy the oil rights, but they are also suited by another syndicate. So while the two competitors fight over the contract, Squire is back in Pine Ridge trying to defame Lum & Abner's name by buying the mineral properties. An ok Lum & Abner film but not among the best of the series. Parts of the plot play like Two Weeks to Live, so there's really nothing new. Rating- 5.
