Up In The Air, Junior Birdman
"Mary Kornman persuades Grady Sutton to take the glider the gang has built up. Unfortunately, they can't figure out how to get him down. THE BOY FRIENDS can be thought of as "Our Gang Become Teenagers", and it was built around original Rascals Mickey Daniel and Mary Kornman. George Stevens got his promotion from cameraman to director Gertrude Messinger and Grady Sutton were added to the bunch, and the skilled Hal Roach writers went to work.... but it was never really a great series, alas,. Still, it's good, and Charlie Hall as the put-upon gilder pilot helps...."
