[edit] Plot
It seems that Mickey is upset over the fact that his parents spend every Monday night arguing. The reason: Mickey's mom invariably serves hash made from the Sunday-dinner leftovers, and Mickey's dad hates hash. To teach the two adults a lesson, the Our Gang kids stage a skit on a local radio program, ending with a heartfelt plea by Mickey to stop the quarrelling. [1]

- Janet Burston makes her Our Gang debut as a non-gang character "Mary" who sings "Tippi Tippi Tin" in a radio contest.
