- Lige and his party are cavorting around the beach playing various games when they suddenly decide to visit the roller skating rink. There the announcement has just been made that the champion roller skater of the world will make his appearance that afternoon. Lige, an inexperienced skater, is taken for the champion and the crowd howls when they think his awkward falls are taken purposely. He is compelled to go through a complete program of stunts before it is revealed that he is not the champion. He is then rushed from the rink with the crowd in pursuit when it is announced he has stolen some money. The girl catches up with them and announces she took the money to avoid trouble.—Motion Picture News, December 12, 1925
- Johnny Smith is spending his holiday at the beach. He is very popular with the bathing girls until Wyndee Durham shows up. Then the bathing girls desert Johnny and they play around with big, handsome Wyndee. But Johnny sticks around the bunch of beach beauties in spite of all the tricks the jealous Wyndee plays on him. He meets Violet Brown, whose father owns the rollerskating rink. When Johnny has finished his plunge, he goes to the bath house to dress. While he is coming out he falls on a set of roller skates, grabs a speeding automobile and is whirled away. Violet's father is anxiously awaiting the arrival of J. Smith, the champion roller skater of the world, who has promised that he will stage an exhibition at the rink at three o'clock. Promptly at three, the doors fly open and Johnny Smith, on roller skates, skids into the rink where he has been thrown by the speeding auto. The owner of the rink thinks that Johnny is the champion and compliments him on his prompt arrival and his perfect impersonation of a novice. In spite of all that Johnny can say he is accepted as the champion. As he has never had roller skates on before, his antics are amusing to everyone but Johnny. His stunts bring cheers from the assembled patrons. Wyndee Durham is the manager of the rink and he sees that Johnny is not a champion and puts him through stunts that are both surprising and spectacular. Finally Johnny gets tangled in a rope and a pail of glue and the colored porter is stuck to the other end of the rope. They shoot down a chute and land in the street where a passing auto catches the rope and whirls them away at considerably more than the legal speed limit.
