In the movie Campus Rhythm, Johnny Downs plays Wally Bentley, a talented songwriter and musician who dreams of attending college and joining a fraternity. However, his father (played by Thurston Hall) doesn't see the value in higher education and wants Wally to follow in his footsteps and become a successful businessman. Despite his father's objections, Wally and his friends decide to start their own fraternity and attend college anyway. Along the way, they meet Gale Storm who plays Terry Lee, a talented singer who catches Wally's eye but has her own dreams of becoming a famous performer.

As Wally and his friends struggle to get their fraternity off the ground and keep up with their demanding college work, they also have to deal with a rival group of students who are determined to shut them down. The tension between the groups builds as they compete in talent shows and football games, with a lot of musical numbers and comedy thrown in along the way.

Robert Lowery plays another student named Dick, who initially seems like a rival to Wally but eventually becomes his friend and ally. Together, they work to unite the various groups on campus and prove that their fraternity is just as worthy as any other.

Throughout the movie, there are plenty of catchy songs and dance numbers, including a memorable performance of "Jive Bomber" featuring Gale Storm and some impressive swing dancing. There's also a hilarious scene where Wally and his friends unintentionally destroy their fraternity house during a wild party, leading to a frantic cleanup effort before the school's administrators find out.

In the end, Wally and Terry both achieve their dreams, with Wally making it big as a songwriter and Terry becoming a famous singer. And of course, they all graduate from college together, with Wally's father finally coming around and realizing the value of education and friendship.

Overall, Campus Rhythm is a fun and uplifting movie that showcases the talents of its young cast and provides plenty of entertainment along the way.
