The streets between the sidewalks of New York, never held throngs greater than those who wanted to entertain Mayor Walker in Hollywood. But he stopped the traffic long enough to have lunch with Alice White at the studio Jimmy — what with his receptions to celebrities — has probably faced the movie camera nearly as often as Colleen Moore.
