Joy Scouts

Joy Scouts is a 1939 "Our Gang" short comedy film directed by Edward Cahn. It was the 180th "Our Gang" short (181st episode, 92nd talking short, 93rd talking episode, and 12th MGM produced episode) that was released.
Plot.
Told that they are too young to join the Greenpoint Boy Scouts, the gang forms a troop of their own. Unfortunately, their camping and survival skills leave much to be desired. They pitch a tent over a well getting soaked; they burn the bacon, wieners, and fish they try to cook; get caught in a rainstorm, and get poison ivy. A flood traps the kids, but some real scouts come to the rescue.
Notability.
"Joy Scouts" marked the debut of Mickey Gubitosi. Gubitosi would eventually adopt the screen name of Robert Blake several years later but continued to be known as Mickey on the series. He would appear in nearly every succeeding "Our Gang" entry until production ceased in 1944.
"Our Gang" also gets a new director named Edward Cahn. George Sidney transfers to other directing positions at MGM and becomes a prominent director in the coming years. He would go on to direct movies such as "The Harvey Girls" starring Judy Garland, "Viva Las Vegas" starring Elvis Presley," Kiss Me Kate" and "Bye Bye Birdie".
