Ill these pictures is a summary of the event. In Albany (top left) Chamber of Commerce President James Ronin and 20th Century-Fox exploitationist Rodney Bush greet actresses Arleen Whelan and Joan Davis. At the RKO-Palace (bottom right), Governor Herbert H. and Mrs. Lehman (top centei ) are enthusiastic first-nighters. Where Miss Davis and Lynn Bari (top right) were snapped was not stated, but their embellishment is manifest. In Amsterdam, the Rialto (third row, right) is jammed, as the Mohawk Carpet Mills Band (second row, left) turn out to furnish the music for the notable event. In Gloversville, Louis W. Schine (second row, right) addresses the luncheon given by the Chamber of Commerce in honor of the Hollywood delegation. In Utica, Jane Withers and a police sergeant (bottom, center) battle the mob to get to the theatre (bottom left). And in Schen¬ ectady, another crowd (third row, left) storms the theatre for the gala event. Although unable to be present, Darryl F. Zanuck (center), vice-president in charge of production, came in for no little credit. November 8, 1939
