BROWN OF HARVARD.

Tom Brown (William Haines) is a handsome, athletic, and carefree young man who has a reputation as a Don Juan among the ladies. Tom rooms with Jim Doolittle (Jack Pickford), an awkward weakling but goodhearted backwoods youth who idolizes him. The brash and cocky Brown easily wins over his dormitory mates, but refuses to let them ostracize Jim. To save his friend's reputation, the sickly Jim goes out and takes his place in the rain and is soon hospitalized. Tom is acclaimed a school hero and is happily united with Mary.
