Synopsis
Andy Panda and his dad are busy in the study reading their respective favorite magazines. They hear a knock-knock, and father opens the door. Nobody's there.
After this is repeated a number of times, the door is taken off its hinges and set on the floor. The knocks are repeated again and again, and, seeing sawdust on the floor, Andy and his dad realize that the knocks come from the roof.
Father climbs to the roof and sees Woody Woodpecker pecking holes in the roof. Then begins a series of episodes in which Andy Panda and his father try to get rid of Woody (including trying to put salt on his tail). They have no success.
Finally, two keepers from an asylum (also woodpeckers) arrive. Then the keepers themselves begin acting like maniacs as the picture ends.

Production notes
The first cartoon to bear the presence of the woodpecker who would later become the legendary and timeless Woody Woodpecker.
In a closing scene censored from many reissue prints, two woodpeckers from the insane asylum (complete with butterfly net) come to take Woody away, but they turn out to be even crazier than he is.

Woody Woodpecker's Debut
Just like Tex Avery's antics. "Woody Woodpecker" was HYSTERICAL troubles from beginning to end! Extremely funny!
Just like "Popeye the Sailor" debuted on a "Betty Boop" cartoon, entitled {"Popeye the Sailor"} in 1933. Woody Woodpecker on an "Andy Panda" cartoon.
Daffy Duck & Bugs Bunny debuted on a cartoon when "Porky Pig" was the star, cartoon character as they debuted. 63x927is58401
