Frank Merrywell – Unwelcome Rescue. 480703

Frank and Bart are spending their summer working as lifeguards at Coney Island. The amusement park attractions feature a human cannonball, and Frank needs to stay in the water as lifeguard to keep people back. Will a stunt help with publicity for the act?

When the girl overshoots the net, Frank thinks she’ll drown and goes to rescue her… despite her objections. Is she delirious? Frank gets the cold shoulder from his girlfriend, Insa, for rescuing the pretty girl, who didn’t need saving. Will she forgive him?

At any rate, publicity is booming for the cannon attraction. The girl, Lola, explains the act to Frank and Bart. Is there going to be more pranks afoot? The cannon continues to be a success, so Frank and his friends enjoy the other attractions on the boardwalk.

At the shooting gallery, Frank asks if there are guns that aren’t so worn out. Has he just uncovered a smuggling ring of military grade rifles? The guys are shanghaied and packed into a crate bound for South America. Can Frank think fast and have Insa and Lola rescue them? Time to make short work of the gun runners.
