Print: color
Runtime: 82 min.
Genre: comedy
Print Quality: B

One of the better Universal "budget" musicals of the postwar era, Yes Sir, That's My Baby
serves as an excellent showcase for Donald O'Connor. The timely script concerns the
problems facing ex-GIs as they adjust to marriage, parenthood, and (thanks to the GI Bill)
college life. William Waldo Winfield (O'Connor) is among the new collegiates who are
frustrated by a campus rule barring married men from playing on the football team. This
rule is the handiwork of spinsterish psychology professor Boland (Barbara Brown), who is
in cahoots with the male students' wives. Solving everything is crusty biology prof Jason
Hartley (Charles Coburn), whose long-ago reluctance to exchange wedding vows is the
cause of Professor Boland's vendetta. As Donald O'Connor's wife, Gloria de Haven is very
pretty and modestly talented. Featured in the cast as one of the football players is Joshua
Shelley, who shortly thereafter was blacklisted from films because of his allegedly
left-of-center political views.
