Handsome Threesome Hollywood Tour (Continued from page 45) where Larry Parks hangs his hat — Earl Carroll’s — the broadcasting studios at Sunset and Vine, from which Photoplay’s daily ABC radio show “Hollywood Tour” emanates. To the right we see the road that curves up into Hollywood Hills. The lovely white and gaily colored houses seemed perched, ready to fall into The Valley that lies on the other side. At night they’re a fairyland with their twinkling lights. But we continue past Schwab’s Pharmacy, hang-out of such Hollywood sodasippers as Shirley Temple, Linda Darnell and Sidney Skolsky . . . And on to Sunset Strip, that stretch of boulevard between Hollywood and the sea. The “midway to movieland,” it is as cleanlined as an etching with its white stucco and neoSpanish architecture. The Strip is famous for such glamorous establishments as: The Players, the Chanteclair, Paul Hesse’s modern photographic studios, Mocambo, LaRue’s, Ciro’s. The winding road goes past a score of swank buildings housing offices like Sue Carol’s and Bing Crosby’s — and then around the bend, the bridal path marks Beverly Hills. Union Station is now thirty miles behind us. Another mile to go, to the Beverly Hills Hotel — the hostel they built the town around. Up the palm-shaded drive and to the lovely swimming pool colorful with red and yellow cabanas and a real sand beach. We visit the exotic and beautiful Palm Room, for parties, such as Photoplay’s annual Gold Medal Dinner. But now, time to unpack — and to bed — for an early start on the next day of your Hollywood Tour. Be sure to come with us in the next issue on a tour of the Warner Studios, in famous San Fernando Valley. We’ll he seeing ypu.
