Comedy
A printer and
his young assistant take over a local newspaper while the editor is away.
Scotty and his young helper Sammy do the printing for the local newspaper, The
Totville Eye. Scotty has ideas for improving the paper, but his stodgy editor
refuses to change anything. When the editor is called away by a family illness,
Scotty is left in charge. He soon puts Sammy to work as a cub reporter, and the
stories in the paper's next edition are quite a bit different from its usual
content.
