Production notes
The original black and white cartoon has been colorized.
This is one of the few Popeye cartoons utilizing the Fleischers' special multiplane animation technique. It is in the first scene, introducing the school of etiquette.
This is the last episode in which Gus Wickle voices Bluto. Fleischer ran a 10-episode break without Bluto up to "Customers Wanted" in which Pinto Colvig fills in the voice for Bluto.

Learn Polikeness
Can't name enough of these Popeye classics.....
The 3-D setups at the beginning (i.e., the interior of Professor Bluteau's office) are sumptuous; his attempts to smooch Olive; and especially, Popeye's own demonstrations of escorting a lady down the stairs, and of putting on and removing a lady from her coat.
