''The Under-Pup'' is the 1939 feature film that introduced soprano singing star Gloria Jean to the screen. The story, adapted by Grover Jones from a magazine story by Australian author I. A. R. Wylie, casts Gloria as a streetwise girl who is sent to a summer camp for wealthy girls. She is at first bullied by the other girls, but she stands up for herself and wins everyone over, including the girl who had bullied her the most, to earn a place in their group, "The Purple Order of Penguins". The film was well received, and was followed by an unofficial sequel, ''A Little Bit of Heaven'' (1940). Many of the cast members from ''The Under-Pup'' appear in the second film, but with different character names. The film script was adapted for radio and was presented on ''Lux Radio Theater'' on April 15, 1940, with Gloria Jean and Nan Grey reprising their film roles.() ==Cast== *Gloria Jean - Pip-Emma Binns *Robert Cummings - Dennis Lane *Nan Grey - Priscilla Adams *C.
