Synopsis:
Miss Brooks has plenty of teacher troubles and her "escape" is in dreaming about her
vacation. She has travel folders on several Caribbean cruises which she discusses with the athletic coach
who owns his own little sailboat. Miss Brooks suddenly sees that perhaps he's "the man" for her. She's
glad she isn't putting on the school play this year so she won't have to fight him for use of the gym. Then
the ax falls. The play is thrust upon her! A battle royal develops. The coach's star athlete Ted gives up
the team to play the leading boy's part. The daughter of the school board president is determined to
play opposite him but she reads her lines so poorly that Miss Brooks gives the role to an attractive
nobody with real talent.
