 Editor's Note
 Along with 18 other classic shorts, this comprehensive Stooges collection contains "Hoi Polloi." In this fan favorite, an erudite professor makes a bet that he can teach the boys some social graces and then invites them to a high-society party only to learn their personalities are quite infectious. Also included are "Punch Drunks," another favorite featuring Curly as a boxer with a "Pop Goes the Weasel" complex; "Woman Haters;" "Ants in the Pantry;" "Slippery Silks;" and over a dozen more.
