Plot


Afalfa is preparing for a Football game with the gang before his father takes him aside to talk about his poor grades, Alfalfa is told that, he has a lot of Grade "D" on his tests and unless he improves his academic standing, he'll never get to college. Alfalfa responds, "Don't 'D' stand for 'Dandy'?" He then informs his father that he intends to sail through college on a football scholarship. His father then puts forth an illustration to Alfalfa who imagines that he is a student at "Hale University" (a spoof of Yale University) and that he is a big football star with poor grades. During his dream about future gridiron triumphs, Alfalfa is brought down to earth when he envisions himself being disqualified by his professor from the inevitable "big game" due to his lousy grades. After picturing this scenario our hero vows to put football on the back burner in favor of cracking the books. His father though encourages him to balance them out and not neglect one for the other, so while Alfalfa doesn't give up Football he promises and encourages the gang to take "Time Out For Lessons".[1]
