Announcer : This book is Paul Whiteman's Scrap Book. It's pages are crowded with melodies and antidotes which we are going to bring to life for you by the magic camera. Here we have Paul himself. By the way, you may be interested to knowing how he came to be crowned the "King of Jazz." Once upon a time, Paul, tired of life in the great city, had a grand idea. He would go big game hunting. No sooner said than done. So in the action of the camera, we find him a few weeks later in darkest Africa.
