Yorker, who lunches regularly with the singing star and who, admittedly, is No. 1 man in June's heart these days. The orchidsender is rapidly reaching a Hollywood record for patience. Some time ago June called the florist, who delivers the exotic blooms.

He seized the star’s hands. He was beaming. “My dear!” he exclaimed. “You should never make another picture as long as you live!” Ethel red a Leopold, blonde Chicago beauty, out here to make her debut in Warner Brothers movies.
