Clever dialogue and lively stage action are par for the course in this zany “meller”!  Gloria Greenfee inherited the Greenfee Lodge along with a debt from her uncle, and she can’t pay the bank.  But when the good-hearted banker Frank Lee Fairway gets one look at Gloria’s niece, Birdie, his job of foreclosing becomes more difficult than ever!  Frank tries to convince Gloria to convert the lodge into a resort for golf, the new sport that’s sweeping the nation.  He whips up a crude golf course just in time for more guests — Rockie Rhoades, Doc T.  Thyme and his six annoying daughters — to try out the new game.  But there’s a storm cloud looming!  Villainous Nash T.  Sandtrappe, posing as an illusionist, arrives with his sister Sue, and they have a map showing a vein of gold that runs under the lodge.  Nash offers to relieve Gloria of all she owes by buying the lodge...  dirt cheap.  The golf enthusiasts in your audience will cheer wildly when the hero rescues the poor heroine with what else but a great line-drive down the fairway!  Always fun, this melodrama has an un-“Fore!”-gettable happy ending!
