  The Dover Boys - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
It was released by Warner Bros. on 19 September 1942.
When the Dover Boys (finally) arrive, they proceed to lay a few punches on a barely conscious Backslide before managing to knock each other out as Backslide collapses to the floor beneath their swinging fists.
Dora is then escorted away by an odd man in a sailor suit who was a running gag throughout the cartoon, appearing periodically to interrupt the story by walking up, jumping in place, and moving on; he and Dora repeat these movements as they walk (and hop) off into the sunset.

 MichaelBarrier.com -- Interviews: John McGrew
This was The Dover Boys at Pimento University, a parody of turn-of-the-century boys' fiction and melodramas.
Of the Dover characters, only the overwrought Dan Backslide looks like an individual (he is a caricature of Ken Harris, one of Jones's animators); the Dover Boys and Dora Standpipe are exaggerated types, with faces and bodies too rigid to admit emotion easily.
The Dover Boys pulled together successfully elements that were foreign to most of the short cartoons of the early forties: human characters, an unmistakably parodistic story, stylized movement and design.
