The Eugenic Girl (1914)
Lola is a lovely girl who believes in eugenics. She has five suitors, all eligible, although she likes Billy, a newspaper reporter, the best. She is determined to marry the best man and arranges for an athletic contest at the country home of her aunt. She arranges a program of stunts in which her five suitors are to compete, which makes Billy disconsolate because he cannot box or swim, and has never been inclined toward athletics. Billy reports a prize fight, and when Patsy McSweeny knocks out his opponent, an idea strikes him. He hires Patsy as a substitute in the athletic stunts arranged by Lola. Billy sends Lola a note asking permission to enter lists as an unknown, and Patsy appears in disguise. After winning every contest, Patsy invests Billy with his disguise, whereupon Billy appears to claim the hand of Lola, as the victor. The disguise fools Lola, who accepts Billy.
