Big City

Several former boxing champions, wrestling champs and noted football players, and athletes are among the men attending the Jack Dempsey dinner in the film. Also, they all join in the fight at the New York docks, helping the independent cab drivers against the Comet cab company. Among them are former world heavyweight champs Dempsey and James J. Jeffries, former world light heavyweight champion Maxie Rosenbloom, former All-American athlete and double Olympic gold medal winner Jim Thorpe, and George Godfrey, Rex 'Snowy' Baker, Man Mountain Dean, and Cotton Warburton.

Although the film is set in New York City, in one of the shots of the cars racing to the ship, a car is shown on Vine St. in Hollywood, passing a Schwab's drug store and the offices of the Hollywood Citizen-News newspaper. The group of Comet cabs is subsequently shown on the same street.
