Trivia
When Butch and Woim are chasing the Gang, one of the sets has a possible real advertisement painted on a wooden wall: "F.D. Allen Co. / Contractor-Builder / 1001 Cochran Ave. Phone S.M. 1886". If it was an actual business, it would have been at the corner of Olympic Boulevard and South Cochran Avenue (there is no North Cochran) in Los Angeles. It is a residential district, though businesses like this might have existed along Olympic (originally 10th Street, re-named during the Xth Olympiad in Los Angeles in 1932). The address does not exist now (2019), as the first address in the 1000 block of Cochran is 1011.

Quotes
Butch: All right, where are you guys?
Alfalfa: There's nobody down here except us dummies.

A Rascal Rush of Pleasure

One of the best OUR GANG shorts of the late thirties, RUSHIN' BALLET is amusing, original and sometimes thrilling. I won't go into plot details here - if you've seen it, you know them; if you haven't, hearing these things described too much beforehand always diminishes them a bit. I will say that this is one of those concise stories for which the ten-minute format works terrifically. It moves quickly, but despite its title never feels rushed, and it lacks nothing.
