Hoosier Schoolboy
Hoosier Schoolboy is a 1937 American film directed by William Nigh.
Later, Mis Evans and Shockey walk to school from his house on the day of a school board meeting about his behavior. At the meeting, Mr. Townsend says they should expel Shockey and send him to the state school of corrections. Shocked, Mary counters that he needs kindness and understanding. As the meeting continues, Shockey is outside leaning against a tree when classmate Elvira comes over. She asks if the school board is going to expel him, and he replies Miss Evans is speaking for him. Elvira teases Shockey, calling him Miss Evans pet. Very offended, Shockey knocks Elviras school books out of her hands. When she says that a gentleman would pick up the books and apologize, Shockey does, and Elvira thanks him. I think youre the strongest boy in the class, she says. Think so?, Shockey asks, how would you like me to take a whack at some guy for you? Mary comes out and announces that Shockey wont be expelled. As Mary walks off, Shockey tries to ask Elvira out on a date, but had a hard time putting the words together because he is so in love with her.A big benefit party takes place at the school, with food sold in combination boxes. Again Roger teases Shockey about his father. Just as Shockey is about to punch Roger again, Elvira restrains his fist. Shockey comes up with a slightly less violent way to react to Roger, grabbing a handful of ice cubes by a punch bowl and stuffing it down the back of his shirt. ........
