4 Male 4 Female
The approaching nuptials of the daughter and an eligible young lawyer occupy the greater part of the family's attention until, on the day of his high-school graduation, son Buzzy Pringle announces that he has just married fifteen-year-old Rosemary Cotts with whom he has been going steady
Abruptly the attention shifts to these two. It is discovered that this is no shotgun wedding but, on the contrary, a mating of two innocents. Father Pringle is something of a meddler, before long he has helped to break up the marriage of his son and daughter- in-law, the engagement of his daughter and her fiance and his own hitherto placid alliance
In the end, however, the children decide that they are to lead their own lives. Father mends his ways and smooths theirs and Mother tips him off that her bedroom was never really locked against him"
