Very funny Damon Runyon story

The premise of the movie is very funny, and although it completely disappears after the first fifteen minutes, the rest of the film continues to be hilarious. Cesar Romero is a gangster in a ticket-scalping racket alongside William Frawley, Andy Devine, Warren Hymer, and George E. Stone. He has a weakness for dames, and when he sees an article in the society pages about a girl whose father repeatedly pays off her no-good suitors, he gets an idea. Patricia Ellis has a weakness for men in uniform, so Cesar buys one, dons a Spanish accent, and pretends to be a member of the royal Army. It works, and Patricia vows to elope with him.

How does the rest of the movie unfold? You'll have to watch Hold 'Em Yale to find out. It's very funny, so I recommend you do. A Damon Runyan story, it's full of quick one-liners, and precursor jokes later found in Guys and Dolls. George E. Stone even plays a character called Benny South Street! (Benny is a character in the musical, and in the movie, George played the gangster Society Max.) Cesar isn't in the movie very much, but the others take over from his beginning and keep you laughing all the way to the end. Check it out!
