For many audiences the scenes of this rough sport will be an eyeopener. Girls as well as men skate for a living around an oval rink, and nearly everything goes. Fists as well as elbows are used, with many consequent hard spills on the board track or into the railing. After seeing the film, patrons will wonder if there is any weaker sex."AwardsJustin Herman was nominated for an Academy Award for "Best Short Subject, One-reel".
