Original Toronto Star caption: Entertainment climate of Toronto has changed considerably in the 21 years since Moxie Whitney became the bandleader at the Royal York's Imperial Room - and he's been responsible for many of them. Early in the '60s he worked to change the Imperial Room's policy to the big-act circuit, resulting in the hotel of an unwritten color bar.
