Record Makers Bank on Trade, Devise Special Exploitation for Music Ops

NEW YORK. Jan. 12.—As the use of the 40-or-more-selection, coin-operated phonograph spreads thruout the country, the number of records sold to . the juke box operatnre by the disk industry is currently estimated to have pas-sed the 50.000,000 • year mark.

For years duly credited Da a

prime exploitatien medium for disks, the music machines in-dustry is beginning to hit new heights as a consumer of phono-graph records. It has even been estimated that a major record firm can rack up more than 12.000.000 a year in sal« to juke box operators. Record manufm-tlirers claim that at least 15 per cent of their single records are sold for coin machine use. The disk industry's growing

cognizance of the importance of juke boxes has resulted in some manufacturers devising new pm-motional devices in increasing numbers, setting up and expand-ing special mles departments, and even producing special phono-graph re cords for the music machine industry.

Capitel and 11CA Victor, for example. have special saMpling services for operators. The latter diskery has even compiled special

lists of big-selling Latin-Ameri-can records for the specific use of operators with routes in Spanish speaking areas. Decca hits turned out platters hits' Grady Martin's "Slew Font Rag" with the oper-ators specifically In mind, while RCA Victor has told the nee that the Pee Wee King disking of "Ragtime Annie Lee" was "aimed at the juke boxes and syndicate store customers."

CBS Takes 258G Bite of Air Features HOLLYWOOD, Jan. 12.— The

Columbia Broadcasting System will pay James Sauter and Mau-rice Scopp about 2258,000 to ac-quire their block of stock in Air Features. CBS has given Sauter and Scope 65G each immediately and will pay them $1,500 a month each for the next three years for their work as consultants and, will retain Scoop to continue as oper-ating head of Air Features for one year at $20.000. Sauter is exiting to go into the packaging of public service shows. CRS is buying into such impor-

tant daytime Air Feature proper-ties as "Helen Trent" and "Our

Gal Sunday" on its own radio network, and others on competi-tive webs. The Air Feature pack-ages on competing weba will, of course, continue to be aired on those webs until the expiration of their present contracts. At that time, CBS will imdoubtedly have the privilege of moving them to its own network facilities. The major stockholders in Air

Feature., Frank and Anne Hum-mers, will continue to create new program ideas for the new coin-bine.. The possibility is that some of thew shows will originate from the Coast.

Take a Bow, Radio! 36-Mil UN Contrib

Radio, in the last three years, has given $38.000,000 worth of free time to broadcast programs originating with the United Nations Radio. That ilium cornes officially from Dorothy Lewis, the UN's co-ordinator of American broadcasting.

Mu Lewis mentioned the doliar.total—$12.000.000 a year —in launching her "Operation Communleations." thru whieh she is trying to hype listenership to the UN programs be ass additional audience of 20,000.000 come next June.

Of came. the UN is providing program that are worth airing, worth listening to. That's central. But it must be remembered, despite all adverse criticism (official and other-wise) that US broadcasters do have a conscience, are in-terested in world peace. do want to—end do—give time, lob of it, at peak period often, to the UN Radio's output. That'. something to be proud M.

The Billboard hopes broadcasters will continue to give the UN their co-oper•tion. Those 20,000,000 extra listeners will not only help the UN tell its story—they will also help broadcasting.

Intentions are to have the hear-ing before persons of such stature (probably outside the industry), that, were they to clear Loeb, the union would be able to take strong action to gain him a place on the show.

/st addition the membership of Actors' Equity took a step that could result ai the placing of "The Croldbergs" on the TVA unfair list as long as Loeb is barred front

the program. Membership at Its quarterly meeting yesterday (II) recommended to Equity Cnuncil that it request the TVA board to call • special meeting of the New York chapter not later than Jan-uary 23 for this purpose Opinion is that cooler heads at

New Survey on Who Own Sets NEW YORK, Jan 12 —High

school graduates who have be-come heads of famihea are more apt to own TV sets (38 per cent) than men with grade school (25 per cent) or college education (» per cent), according to the latest survey made by Industrial Sur-veys Company. ble. The study made quarterly from the ISC panel of over 4.000 families, also shows that families headed by skilled laborers have a greater proportion of seta (40 per cent) than families of other occupational groups

Similarly, there are more sets sold to females with four or aye member, (37 per cent) than to larger or smaller groups, with 33 per cent of three-member families having sets and only 27 per cent of six-or-more member families. While 40 per cent of craftsmen or foremen's families have sets. 34 per cent of profes-sional or executive families are owners as compared with 33 per rent of clerical, sales or service, 31 per cent of laborers and opera-tors, and B per cent a farmerk The younger the children, the

is based on the pnispect that the freeze break could portend "con-struction e some 1,800 additional television stations over a period of the next few years."

Fellows said his cat estimate is a bare one, since it does not include profes-sional and administrative fees. Fellows told the bar group that

Fellows of the National A.,,i^tion of Radio and Television Broadcasters. Itere are the comparative costa, Fellows said, based on estimates compiled by NARTB in • new booklet, "Television Construction Costs," distributed to TV members stations:

VHF Nation,: Complete station costs in cities of less than 50.000:

$219,000. In dike,' Of 50.000 to 250,006 $274.000. In cities of 250.000 to 1.000.000: $332,250. Ill cities over 1,00,000: $433.250. UHF Stations: In cities less than 50,000: $235,000 (add $27,500 if the tower

vide "minimum effective radiated power," and, he added, "complete station costs where there is maximum eflective radiated powers of 100 kilowatts to 200 kilowatts, the figure ranged from eseueo to $593,500. according to the channel."

Fellows sounded one wanting in interpreting the figure.. -They consist of general items," he said, adding that gener-ally speaking the figures "are pretty close to the mark, and they Pregunte that maximum effective radiated power stetiona will include costs for equipment providing four caserones of program sources: film, network, live studios and remote."

Filin House TV • Cartinted from woe 3

The big boxing matches shown by TNT in 1951 found more than twice as many exhibitor, ordering them as could be fed the bouts. Cause is the shortage of AT&T transmission facilities, currently being expanded. AT&T gives first use to tull.time contractors, such as the broadcast networks, with TNT, as an occasional user, given use of remaining facilities.

In brief, the operations of TNT are those of a new type of show buitin«s organization, bringing to-gether the functions of older branches in a unique and individ-ual manner. It serves as nerve-center on behalf of all TV' equipped exhibitor. impartially. having no individual circuit ties. It services Its programa without regard to circuit affiliation. Thea-ter execs feel it would be im-practical and unacceptable for TNT's operetta to be in the hands uf a single theater circuit, which then would have to serve it, competitors as producer.dia-tributor. a system which would give rise to many problems.

"That broadcasters will think like educators, part of the time. "That educators will think

like advertisers, part of the time. "That lawyers will think

A Plea for an End To a Lunatic Trend

The Bailsman has had the persistent feeling tha6. regardless of the rapid development of television. radio has eonanued et one of the nation's healthiest advertising media. that intelligently purchassed radio represented the single best buy any- advertiser could malte. We received with stunned disbelief the an-nouncement of about a year ago that the National 110maeleading Company was propoeing a rate =at Rs television markets. We breathed an uneany sigh of relief for radio when that propose: was abandoned by NBC after station opposition made itself felt.

We witnessed with sadness and awe the debacle of the Columbia Broadcasting Syatem's 10 pet cent rate cut announced during the last National Arareia-lion of Radio and Television Broadcasters' Caneen-lion in Chicago. And we watched with admiration and a small, forlorn feeling of hope the valiant effort' of hundreds of affiliated stations of all the networks to prevent the CBS cut front becoming "nfficiar and spreading. as it did. torn the other networks.

NBC Plea We were again astonished by Mc« aertiona of

the NBC Economic Study Plan which called for a "downward readjustment" of rotes in the mule of half the NBC stations, and we were particularly appalled by that phase of the formula which attempted to rut rates on the basis of television penetrant.. We did not, and do not now. subscribe to the theory that radio must automatically cut rates in areas where television has come into wide usage, any more than we believe that magazines or newspapers should cut rates auto-

To make available to the broadest possible seg-

re, today, In January,- 1952, we prevailed upon Sydney Roslow, of Pulse, to put together for us a

sets-in-use study In seven of the strongest

tsion markets in the country.

The study traces, year by year, radio lis tenin g in

markets during the years of television's most

•nornenal growth. It shows that in some period s in

e of these markets radio sets-in-use figures are

any up. Where they are down the percentage o f

n-use decrease is generally so.arnall that it must

ously be outweighed by the fact that in the years

red in the study over 47,000.000. by th e most

rvative estimates, additional radio sets were

rased by American families. In other words, in given city, a 25 per cent sets-in-use figures in

1 represents substantially more lis tening than a

per cent sets-in-use figure in 1948.

And when it is additionally cons idered that

here in these estimates are any provisions made

out-of-home listening, the continuing strength o f io becomes even more apparent. A n d if ra dio con-

the studies show, it is a fair conclusion that in

r TV markets. in non-TV area», radio must be itely stronger.

We hope the networks, the stations and indeed rids and advertisers themselves w ill peruse these

contribute in some measure to a reversal of the tic trend to-down-grade radio.

Radio Sales Signpost Rise in No. of Homes

NEW YORK. Jan. 12.-At least 47,915.-800 home radio sets were manufactured in the U. S. from the beginning of 1948 thru November. 1951. according to esti-mates of the Radio-Television Manufac-turers' Association. 'These were the years that saw the rise of television. Allowing for the replacement of worn out sets, it is clear that the distribution of home radios has been increasing at a substantial rate, and also boosting the number of radio families in the country.

In 1949 the number of radio families was placed by the Broadcast Measure-ment Bureau at 39,281,230, or 942 per cent of the total number of families in the U. S. In 1950, factory sales of home radio sets was about 8,213,000, according to RTMA. The set sales stated above cover home

radios and radio-phonograph combinations only. It does not include radios brought into homes in combination with television sets, portable radios or automobile radios, all of which make another plus in the cir-culation of radio programing.

ber of radio homes is theoretically broaden the base to which percentages of sets in 1.1.2e in any time period may be applied, nationally or in the cities cov-

Consequently. • de-cline in the percentage of homes listening to radio in • particular time period from one year to the next does not necessarily mean a comparable decline in the actual number of homes that tuned in radio.

It came to 3,744,933 home radios in 1949; 7,598,218, in 1948; a high 11,834,507 home radio sets produced in 1947, and 10,439,001 produced in 1948.

Music, Mildred Alexan-der. organ and calliope: Sil Baird. guitar. Puppeteers. Bil and Cora Baird. Frans Fasaleas. Frank Sot. bran. Ray Hedge.

"Whistling Wizard." the latest Bit and Cora Baird puppet series. was originally brought on for the CBS colorcasts. When tint TV was suspended. CBS put It on the monochrome eked. Undoubtedly the vast variety of puppets had tar greater sight values in color. But it's still a charming show. It should be quite exciting for kids and, since it does have its sophisticated side, rather amusing for adults. The show caught marked the

beginning of a new story entitled "The Land of Beyond." Its main character, a leprechaun, was pitted against his old enemies. the Spider Lady, and her ac-complice. Kohlrabi. The latter two break out of their prison. where they'd been guarded by a couple of thugs named Fluffy and Nolan and, disguised as gypsies. sand the wizard a magic carnet. which (if he doesn't watch his «ee) win carry him off into another world. Other characters were a little boy with big ears. called J. P., and a naive talking horse named Heathcliff.

Wide Sources The characterizations, judging

from the construction of the dolls. the motion of their eyes and the voices of the puppeteers, are es-»nee's, caricatures of characters found in such assorted sources as Dickens, comic strips and fairy tales. The childish intrigue is mixed with topical references the kids won't get. The throaty Spider Lady works her magic with a lisse of gibberish ending with the words "elia kamn." The sets and costume. all

producis of the Baird puppet works, were excellent. Fluffy wears a pin striped suit; the Spider Lady wears a long black

"Wizard's" appeal is at least a• broad as any of the various video puppet shows now going.

This is an example of what tele-vision, in co-operation with a major newapaper, can do to pre-sent a dramatic, yet useful and in-formative, news program tailored to the particular locale they serve. That much planning and ground-work was done on this one was obvious from the moment the pro-gram started. At the coo 'usion of a "short"

30-minutes of viewing. the audi-ence came away with a knowledge at major sports, political and na-tional defense activities which had occurred in Chicago in recent days. More importantly, the program's title, -Impart," had been com-pletely da rifled—the impact of these news events on residents of the Windy City was made crystal-clear.

Austin Kiplinger. news commen-tator heard regularly over WENR-TV, is the Moderator of this series, but it is experienced newsmen serving The Daily News in its cov-erage six days a week who for the first time give local viewers a true picture of a good reporter.

Television—Radio Reviews Pantomime Quiz

TELEVISION — Reviewed Wednesday (2). 10:30-11 p.m., EST. Sponsored by R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Company for Camel Cigarettes thru the William Esty Company via the National Broad-casting Company. Producer. Mike Stokey. Director. Bill Bennington. Announcer. Ken Niles. EMO011e. Mike Stokey. Scorer, Sandra Spence. Regular team: Jackie Coogan, Hans Conned. Frank Phelan and Virginia Field. Visit-ing team: Barbara Britten, Pres-ton Foster. Marie Windsor and Leif Ericson.

A Hollywood origination, "Pan-tomime Quiz" was seen around the country last season via kine. Now it's on the live network, and it's good to have the fuzziness out of it. It's a lively show. "Pantomime" is the old parlor

game, charades. The contestants have a huge repertoire of signals, and, being professional film thmps, have a knack of acting out in-tangibles that would be the death of run-of-the-mill charade players. The titles and quotations chosen

were rarely easy. They got lines such as "Don't shoot the barten-der; he's half-shot now," and "I lost my heart on the subway when I gave my seat to you." And the contestants usually played it the hard way, taking each word in turn.

Conned Adept The regular team of four has

the services of actor Hans Conned, who should eventually be crowned world's champion charade player. Not only can he swiftly mime any word in the language, but he also seems to know every quotation and title ever written. The contestants all played it

broad fbr comic effects. Mike Stokey kept things moving right along and managed to give all eight a turn before the half-hour was up. The opening commercial for

Camels was the Vivian Blaine film clip, and the closing was a clip showing Dick Powen relaxing after shooting a tough movie scene. At midpoint Stokey in-tegrated a plug into an interview of contestant Jackie Coogan.

Next came Charlie Cleveland, veteran political writer for The News, who presented for the first time together on television Judge John Gutkriecht and Grenville Beardsley, recently named by the Democrats and Republicans, re-spectively, to represent their par-ties in the hot race for State's at-torney in the coming election. Both candidates pointed out their plat-forms (for the first time any-where), then listed their qualifica-tions for the job. This was all han-dled in straight news fashion. There was no editorializing or cam-paigning done. The subject of defense against

air attack was the feature story of the initial show. In the studio was Col. Harold Scruggs, com-manding officer of the 147th AF Group, stationed at near-by O'Hare Field. who explained, with the help of Kiplioger and some well-defined maps, the proximity of Chicago to possible invaders, and stressed the importance of this city as a prime target of an aerial attack.

Pilots Give Vies. Program then shifted to O'Hare

Field, where Tom Casey, an Amer-ican Broadcasting Company re-porter, interviewed several jet pilots recently returned from Ko-rea a Navy pilot stationed with the Air Forces, and then turned over the program to the fliers and ground officers who went thru the routine which would be followed in the event an attack took place. This portion of the program in-cluded the firLog-up of three jets, and their movement to the run-ways. For a finale, program switched

from the jets back to the studio where a 16-year-old girl, Mary Kay O'Connell, was waiting to re-cite a prayer she had written for CMistmas and which was printed in The Daily News. Perhaps one of the most im-

Miss Dietrich's throaty dead-pan delivery had considerable tongue-in-cheek charm, but rest of the cast were completely defeated by out-of-date script. Most of all. tho.

liant performance as a team, The Lunts last Broadway offer-ing. "I Know My Love," was actually a dull play. This radio version of same was even more so, since it lacked the visual compensations of the legit com-edy—namely the fascination of watching Lynn Fontanne and Alfred Lunt run thru a variety of make-ups and mannerisms to portray • supposedly hap-pily married couple from youth to their Golden Wedding an-niversary. As a radio play. the S. N.

Behrman opus just wasn't strong enough to sustain audi-ence interest for an hour on vocal-contrast alone. Then. too. gallantry aside, Miss Fon-tanne's voice wasn't convincing in the teen-age phase of her role. Age-wise, Lunt was more successful, but even his vigor-ous delivery couldn't inject any real pacing into proceedings. All in all, the Theater Guild presentation added up to a great waste of top talent and time.

Tommy Henrich Sport Show

TELEVISION — Reviewed Wednesday (2), 11:10 to 11:20 p.n. Smtairdng via WJZ-TV. Pro-ducer. John Madigan. Director, James Ymbrough, Writer . Frank Scott. Cut. Tommy Honed's. Guest, thia show. Dan Daniel.

Having been dropped from his coach's berth by the New York Yankees, for whom he toiled so well for so many years, Tommy Henrich has launched his career as TV sportscaster via this late-evening WJZ-TV show. Originally, the stanza was handled by Russ Hodges alone; now Henrich is sup-posed to work with Hodges while getting his training. On the show caught, Henrich was on solo, with Hodges busy on other fronts, and the show was titled merely the "Tommy Henrich Sport Show." There is a certain 'charm about

Henrich's manner which probably derives in part from a certain In-nocence of pro mike methods, and in part from the fact that he seems such a nice guy. There is also a touch of uncertainty about his work which doubtless will pass as he grows more accustomed to the stint. However, It is to be hoped that he retains his easy, low-pres-sure approach, something a bit novel in broadcast sports gabbers.

Scores. Late News After opening with • "Hi! How

are you tonight?" he replied to himself, saying, "Fine." Then he launched into a reading of late basketball and hockey scores, and some other late sports news, such as pole vaulter Bob Richards' get-ting the Sullivan Trophy award. With this item, some film clips of Richards in action were shown. Then Henrich interviewed base-

ball writer Dan Daniel. When Tommy commented that he was new to the role, Daniel said Hen-rich was doing as well as he had at the plate for the Yankees, whereupon Tommy quipped. "Well, the station hasn't shipped me to Newark yet." After a few ques-tions; Henrich seemed to be stumped for a fresh. query, so Daniel kept things rolling by put-ting a poser to the sportscaster, namely, whether he thought Joe DiMaggio was justified in quitting baseball. Henrich replied in the affirmative, on the basis of DiMag's loss of his old-time hitting con-sistency. Daniel took the 0PP...lie tack, but the 10-minute show ended before the debate could be fully developed.

Potential Hitter It would seem that Henrich's

strongest point would be in taking advantage of his years of baseball wisdom by carrying on lust such discussions in his interview pe-riods. Certainly his attitude and opinions are of far more pertinence and validity than those of the casual sportscaster. As to the prob-lems of technique and smoothness. Henrich is a well-spoken, intelli-gent man, and after he is rid of some of the butterflies, he should find the commenting business as easy as fielding a fly ball to right field. Sien Chase.

Madan, operator of the title Mint: Ken Lynch as her Ameri-can landlord and former lover (a la Bergman pattern), and Arnold Hogs. prefect of the local police, movie part played by Claude Raines. The series is a cloak-and-dagger

drama of the old school, with everybody meeting at Madou's place to trade government secrets ' and indulge in general skuldug-gery. all heavy with foreign se-, cents. of course, and loaded with melodramatic cliches. Miss Diet-rich slinks around the club with lier usual enigmatic grace, and warbles a few hoarse bars of Edith Piers famous "La Vie en Rose" number in French. In a more practical mood on show caught (1). she also argued with Lynch about fact that her rent was over-due. and played a little political patty cake with the Colonel in an effort to save him (Lynch) from iail. At least that was the Impression this reviewer had of the plot.

So Mysterious However, everybody was so

mysterious, that it's quite possible things were the other way around. Anyway. Lynch and la Dietrich ended up mad at each other, which presumably will give the series more fodder for its loves-me. byes-me-not romantic pattern. Marlene Dietrich's throaty

Hallmark has a good idea in airing a Sunday afternoon drama, but it will get nowhere rapidly if the series follows the pattern of the preem show. A more sticky, sickly, saccharine stanza would be difficult to imagine. Scripter Jean Holloway, who adapted the show from the novel. "Dr. Here. cold." is an old hand at turning out soap operas. But the Sunday afternoon TV clan is composed of the entire family, and the male members thereat, at least, must have been driven away in anguish. The tribulations of the good old

country doctor were limned in all their agony, including the med-ico's' fear that he himself has been stricken with a fatal disease. This after his partner of 40 years is shown passing into the here-after, and a collection of patients in varying degrees of illness paraded before the cameras. The two major points of drama were in the doctor's awaiting word on tests of his illness, and in his steering a blind youth into mar. nage with his beloved despite the objections of the boy's mother.

Soaper Tradition In the tradition of the simpers,

things rame out fine in both cases. The doctor learned he had only a nervous dyspepsia, and the boy defied his mother and got himself a bride. This kind of fare is far more

suitable for a continued saga in a weekday strip than for a family afternoon outing. The quicker the bankroller switches to mass ap-peal or quality stuff. the better his chances of winning back some of the audience who must have been utterly dismayed by the tee-off show. Sam Chase.

Ralph Edwards' new radio show is similar to "Truth and Consequences," only there's no quiz. Edwards just has the par-ticipants play foolish and then rewards them with pens, watches. flatware, defense bonds and trips to Mexico. Edwards' own en-thusiasm keeps the show moving swiftly. And, when the partici-pants' tomfoolery are not enough. Edwards' own gags and yelps keep the studio audience yacking. The tricks that Edwards' brain-

CAPSULE COMMENT The Pace of Chicago (TV), WBK13. Chicago, Thursday (10). 9:30-10 p.m. CST. Marshall Field & Company's

expensive, much-heralded TV production celebrating its 100th anniversary made a weak be-ginning. Despite a large budget —over $5.000—an abundance of help and the use of the big new Garrick Studios of WBKB, the show failed to come to life. Six models parading fashions

thru the century were cold and stiff. Three short dramatic epi-sodes depicting family life thria the century were technically adequate, but failed to project any spark. A dance group of three men and there girls were fresh and alive, but the dance itself was no different than viewers see on a dozen net-work TV shows during a week. The show fell completely

apart in the final 10 minutes when executives of the store took over. The officers, mem-bers of the board, old custom-ers, an old employee, a stock-holder and others were intro-duced and handed pieces of cake. In fairness to the pro-ducers. it should be acknowl-edged that the first show was overloaded with ceremony. and was not an accurate indication of what can be done. The pre-miere should be written off to ribbon cutting. A full review will be carried of the second show as an example of the en-tertainment potential of "Pace."

The pitches were well done and effective. • The initial presentation was a 30-minute version of "Dark of the Moon," which had a Broadway outing some seasons ago. The orig-inal writers did the adaptation which. on the whole, was quite effective in telescoping the action into the half hour. The play it-self. • conglomeration of weird conjurers, superstitious hill folk, and a riotous rape scene, is an ef-fective piece of theater. For the sensitivities of the TV audience. the orgy in the church, which ch-inas« the action, was consider-ably shortened and edited, and some of the impact lost thereby. But it could hardly be done other-wise. McCleery's accent on close-ups

and a minimum of props and sets again proved itself admirably ited to the medium. The focus

was entirely on the players, and the absence of luxurious settings was not obvious.

Alfred Drake headed a cast which, on the whole, was very able. Drake himself showed his versatility again by his handling of the Witchboy role on the heels of his resounding success a few weeks ago in the lead of "Coun-sellor At Law." His work had strength and believability. at all times save the brief opening and closing episodes, before and after he had been turned into a human

Rita Gam made a lovely Bar-bara Allen. Her mouthing of the ballad early in the show was a mite off schedule with the actual warbling, but this was but a small blot on an otherwise good charac-terization. Weakest elements were the two young witch girls, whose offerings, in contrast with Drake's, were too stylized. Otherwise, the production, cast and adaptation made a high-level mark at which to shoot in future editions.

In keeping with the all-Ameri-can idea. the Raymond Paige nrk opens with -Rhapsody in Blue" before the entrance of the ballet corps and featured dancers Pat-ricia Bowman and Charles Lasky "Ballet Romantique." The corps exits, and the duo floats thru a standard classical routine. More pirouettes by the corps follow before that group and the fea-tured pair whirl to a finish.

"Twilight on the Trail" has the glee club and baritone soloist. Stanley Kim., as a colorfully-garbed group of cowboys gath-ered about a campfire. They do "On Top of Old Smoky" at a strolling pace and -I'm Headire for the Last Round-Up" in gallop time.

(Monday, December 17)

Capacity, 300. Policy, two shows nightly. three on Satur-days. Admission, 27. 56 and là cents (drinks not obligatory).. Producer-manager, Fred Skaarup.

Skaarup has remodeled this former cabaret into an intimate theater, with lounge and bar in adjoining rooms. His idea of pre-senting a show along the lines of American burlesque has clicked, and the show which opened in September is still packing them in and is skedded to run until March.

Phyllis DixeY, England's top-ranking peeler, and a line of eight British show girls are the big lure, and they give the boys plenty to gaze at but do it in such genteel fashion—sans bumps or torso tossing—that American burly fans would probably feel they had stumbled into an art gallery. Miss Dixey is a shapely and

statuesque looker who not only peels daringly but also handles lines capably. She and the girls come on about eight times, with the girls doing plastic poses and dance routines. The sexiest bit is a French Can-Cart, which con-firms the French contention that black hosiery, garters and frilly undies are better bait than an undraped fem. Sock hits are the Frandsen Trio

and Harriman Zander, The Frandsens, two boys and a cute girl, give out with harmonizing in an unpretentious but very dis-tinctive style. The boys fill in with guitar and bull fiddle but confine most of their efforts to putting across amusing Danish ditties.

Zany Zander Zander is a zany comic whose

best bit is a musical novelty set-up consisting of a set of drums and two racks of what appear to be bonafide wine and liquor bot-tles out of which he manages to produce a hilarious musical ac-companiment to his vocalizing. Tox and Denise, a standard

vaude act, are very good in their straight bits but weak in comedy. Tox is an excellent violinist but the highlight of their act is Den-ise's fine manipulation of a large marionette to the accompaniment of a violin solo. Act has class, but comedy efforts are little asset_ Viggo Biodthagan is excellent

in a couple of funny Danish songs, as is Ellen Lijrnar in her rendition of a good number. Rita Lojmar rounds out the troupe, appearing with other members of the cast in parodies and comedy bits. About the only American touch is a couple of corny burly gags interpolated by Jack Tracy and a couple of the line girls. Music for the show is provided by Walther Bodker. a very capa-ble pianist. The show is nicely staged and runs about an hour anda half. Ted Wolfram,

First show of the year here was well balanced, each seg solid in its own way. Headliner was Alan Dale, who was in excellent voice. His slow, touching "Laugh Clown, Laugh" was tops. He was brought on by five girls, and went right into "With a Song in My Heart." followed by "Dark Town Strutters' Ball." When he did his imitations of the other singers he failed to register. Comics. non - vocalists at that, have done this better. Dale is not a great personality, but the teen-agers love his shy ways and were in there screaming. Dale finished with "You Are the Prom-ised Breath of Springtime," rov-ing with hand mike midst a stage full of girls.

First act on was Beatrice Kraft and her dancers backed by the house line. They gave an eye-filling, entirely pleasing perform-ance, blending East Indian dance styles with jazz rhythm for respectable hands. John Tio, the talking parrot, got

good-natured laughs for every little thing he uttered. It took some coaxing from his trainer, Francis Abella, to get the parrot to whistle a tune, but this only heightened interest. At wind-up, Abella carried the bird out with its wings flapping to big hands. The Roxyettes got in a turn

wearing Hopalong Cassidy cos-tumes, minus chaps. This fea-tured some strenuous hoofing by Lou Wills Jr. His flips drew big hands. Lew Parker carried the comedy

load neatly. He opened with a bit about the "Flying Enterprise." and then went into song and chat-ter about it being great to be back in New York. He had them yocking it up with his restaurant routine, but began to wear a bit thin when he brought on his wife for marital bliss bit. At show caught, Parker

brought on Thelma Ritter, star of the current pic, "The Model and the Marriage Broker," doing straight for her. Miss Ritter ad-mitted she couldn't do anything. but she provided a pleasant and amusing few minutes.

The holiday bill has plenty of punch, tho the night caught, the opener, was put on before a slim crowd. The late show, however, was well filled. Long stemmed Diana Lure

flashed thru three furious tarp routines for fair mitts as the opening Oct. On second, young Charlie Carts

This new show featured the opening of Anita Ellis (the voice nf Rita Hayworth in "(NMI.") In her Stern preem. Miss Ellis, an attractive brunette, knows how to sing and phrase a standard. She understands lyrics and han a feeling for melody that indicates a real potential. Her choice of tunes was smart, using standards and mixing them up for grind ear appeal. Where she doesn't reels-ter ton strongly is in the selling end. This indicates a lack of ex-perience before live audiences Sight as well as ear appeal is necessary for a well-rounded job. Experience can be acquired with steady work. On voice alone, however, Miss Ellis is worth • look-see by a record company.

Hands Act D'Yves Joly (a four-person

French act) is probably one of the most intriguing arts caught in a long time. Via the use of gloved hands the group gives the effect of various human situa. tiona which are remarkable in their interpretation. Using re_ corded music for background, the hands go thru a realistic ballet, a midnight swim in the "nude. that is hilarious, partieularly when the "swimmers" are caught by the cops (who also are a pair of hands).

Bill Bailey filled out the bill with hoofing and chatter. Bailey filmy Reverend Bailey) has si,

infectious charm that he doesn't take proper advantage of because of his unsuitable material. Chat-ter that may kill 'em at the Apol-lo (a Harlem theater) isn't nee.-sarily the material that will reg-ister at a chi-chi spot like Ls Vie en Rose.

For the first time in Miami Beach night club history, a hotel supper club (the plush Club Mo-rocco in the big Casablanca Hotel) blossoms forth with an ice show. This one is George Arnold's Ice Revue, and it emerges as an hour's okay entertainment. De-spite opening night difficulties when some members of the cast were snowbound in Pittsburgh and local talent was hastily substi-tuted. the show subsequently be-came a well-presented and unique production. The mainstay of the cast of nine

is Arnold, who is in and out of practically every »wither, dis-playing a considerable amount of skating skill as a solo and in duets with Ilona Vail, former Austrian figure-skating champ and an ex-"Holiday on Ice" fea-tured skater, and with Angela Olive, the revue's prima ballerina.

Puppets & Doves Virtually stopping the show

with a puppet art is Victor Charles. one of the cleverest string-pullers caught here in some time. Also copping a good hand, but for a brief stint, is a scantily-clad gal billed as Stephanie. She figure-skates with a pair of live doves.

As outstanding as any of the performers is the background music, by Tito Puente's aggrega-tion (9). While the musicrew ex-perienced opening night setbacks, in later performancegthey're cut-ting the show in a slick manner. The banditas been booked by the club for the entire winter season.

This plush spot has been made plushier this season with a com-

plete re-designing and refurbish-ing, and the initial show's three acts befit the decor. Co-head-liners- Larry Storch and the

DeMarcos are backed up by Dorothy Dandridge in her Miami Beach debut. Storch is outstanding as an

impressionist. His forte is the off-beat stuff, like a Japanese taking a riding lesson, a TV set with a pooped-out tub - and a Brooklyn gal at a bar. Unlike many of the comics working this area, Storch's stint -is completely devoid of off-color material, prov-ing you don't need the blue stuff to be funny. The DeMarcos, as usual, are a

neat team, specializing in Ameri-can-type terps and only once during their routine did they bow to the Latin influence here. The exception was a mambo, but slow and subdued delineation in-stead of the wild and furious mambos that characterize this area. • Miss Dandridge's opening was marked by soft violin music as compared to a loud fanfare in most niter'« She carried this relaxed theme thru her stint, which included a half - dozen torchy or ballad tunes.

tainer, except that the spot com-mercials before and after the pro-¡ram can be sold to local dealers for radio ads on RCA Victor prod-ucts. Diatribe are permitted to work out the cost of the spots with local dealers on a co-op advertis-ing basis.

Trade Talk Mary Beedel, manager of

the record department of Kracy's, Boston, arranged special window displays last week, in honor of disk Jockey Ed %Ore. of Station WTAO, Cambridge, Mass. Penny is the platter spinner who sta-rted the London disking of "Mother at Your Feet is Kneeling," by Bobby Wayne This. record is now No. 5 in Boston, and No. 17 rationally.. . . One of the best suggestions we have heard lately for increasing disk busi-ness so for record dealers to keep a list of all customers who buy re.nis. especially those who purchase 45 and LP attachments, or radio-TV sets with players. These customers ran be sent literature each month advising them of new releases, that keeping them an regular customer, at your wore.

Music Shop, Hyannis. Map.. sent one in last week called 'A Retailer's Prayer," which we bebeve will interest all dealers. We do not have mom for all of it, but here are • few ve01100 from the poem: Mantrfacturor's all, pleese lend an ear.

For New Yeer's comes but once • year.

Heed the plea of the guys you need

Poor little dealers almost gone t. wed.

Somebody said one speed's not enough,

And that's when the going really got lough:

All record prices went tum-bling down,

And sales were b, order in every big town.

But see tackled the thing they called Long Play,

And talked, explained and sokl the hard way.

We're proud to report, after long tough years,

That our customer's love 'em, LP-three cheers!

Then came the kids, asking for jive,

Calling for duic, tunes on those rute 45's.

In trying to buy slugs to itli up the middle,

We were fared with solving another big riddle!

But how can a little guy really feel secure

ehell ads still reed "one-third off" as a lure?

Why is this price-.tting racket allowed-

Who sells to the boya, are you one of the rrowd,

When you manufacture. get together sane day

Wont you try real hard to nnd a right way

To ele.,, up this mess that's not eattingi better,

Be Fair Trade in spirit, not just in the letter?

Chatter Penna.'. Record Shop,

12691101510, writer "We SUR need 45 players, and we could lave sold a lot more of them over Christmas if we had them in sleek. We are pleased to report, however, that we have had a lot of success with the radio promotion we ran on the new LP disk, 'Paint Your Wagon,' which really started this album moving fast." . Richards Musk Shop. Safford, Ariz., complains that Columba and RCA Victor are too slow in giving service on hit rec-ords. Says that it had a tough time getting copies of DOM Dorn "Shanghai' or Poo Vito Linea "Slowpoke." . .. And The Record Shop, Witchita, KM.. aim "We have been going _ great glallet on "Cry" end "Little White Cloud 'That Cried" by Johony Rey. via our store disk jockey show. We frankly believe that one of the ressors for the tune's being the hit it is, 15 due to the terrific job of promotion that is being done on it by all the disk joekeys in this area."

This week's winner is

BRIEN JAMES Rodio Station KCRG

Cedar Rapids, Iowa

u looks aa though the boys Irons Iowa are really cookin'. At least they seem to come up With gimmicks and ideas that are novel and original. Brien James certainly is on his toes and this gimmick required coneiderable work- Here is the Idea in Brien's own words: 'There an early morning show, celled the Clockwatcher. Net-Wally, tune signal. are an im-portant part of any such show. hut getting bored with the squat thing. and knowing the listeners must feel the same Way. I struck on • new way to give lima signals that um would all listen to. Now, at say 7:45. my listeners hear • real tweet female voice ety: 'Th. is Mindy Carson speaking and saying ifs lime lo get up. get out and look

• alive. cause the time right now b 7:43.'

And, an through the show. MI. fluent artists give different time signals. It really works out fine. I secured the voire trecks its two ways: taped the voices of artists going through Cedar Rapids. and also sent copy into other individual art-ists who liked the idea. At the sain• time as the lime signals are taped. 1 have them plug their current hits, and usually have at leant one track of the artist introducing the show.

The ids. works out to the ad-vantage of all concerned: Leveller talent hanging around

'all the time, and the artists aren't heard in one quick inter. lie. end then lorgOtten Until next year. Their names are kept before the public con. deafly. A further advantage: stars like Vaughn Monroe end Mindy Canon rush new voice tracks into me u soon u they record • new plug tune, keeping the ehow fresh and different every

Silver and Gold. everyone's searching for Silver and Gold.

If you're alone when you grow old. Tau never find comfort in Silver and Gold.

When days arc stormy and grey. when

nights are lonely and cold. You'll find that kisses will warm your

heart much faster than Solver and Gold.

Give me an armful of love, give me somebody to hold.

Give me the touch of a tender hand and keep all your Silver and Gold.

After this lifetime is through, after your story's been told.

You'll never walk into paradise still

holding your Silver and Gold.

Caesar's Suits: 2

Down, 1 to Go NEW YORK. Jan. 12 — The

breach-of-contract suit against Sid Caesar by Capitol Produc-tions. In.. was settled in New York Federal Court this week. No details were disclosed. The long-standing court battle was over a 1945 exclusive contract between Caesar and Milton Bren, then associated with Capitol, when both men were in the Coast Guard. Caesar claimed the agree-ment could not hold because he was in the service when it was made and that, instead of promot-ing him and employing him in Inlets as agreed, Capitol had ' farmed out his talents.

Previously. Caesar's suit against Ed Hanley, charging that the lat-ter appearing about • year ago on "Broadway Open House." the erstwhile late evening TV show. had infringed his routine about a woman dressing in the morning, was settled in New York Supreme Court a couple of months ago. The suit against Caesar by Dev-

er! Freeman, charging infringe. ment of the lalter's penny-gum machine routine, is still pending in New York Supreme Court.

"Gertie" unfolds an the typical English comedy of manners, with all the familiar ingredients. The dialog is clever et times, but ex-tremely wordy. The pace is slow and sluggieh and the action almost nil. The story (when the author finally gets around to telling it) le interesting enough, but far from commercial. A first act, in three scenes, does

absolutely nothing but Introduce characters, and st pew-sitter feels after the first 45 minutes that he has met seven people, none of whom is particularly inspiring, but that's all.

Road 'Kate' Still a Buy On Broadway

NEW YORK, Jan. 12.-Just in case there are still a few prospec-tive pew-buyers who missed out on it locally."Kiss Me Kate" has come in off the rood for a limited run at the Broadway Theater. A reporter suspects that the "limit" on its run will be as elastic as the b.o, take warrants. Be that as it may, "Kate" is back at sub-Medially reduced priers.

It is hardly to be expected that a road production will pack the same glitter and gusto that stamped Wete" a smash hit here three years ago. Lemuel Ayers' prin.winning sets have been a bit streamlined for traveling, and the playing staff isn't over-all up to the spontaneous combustion of Its cast's original components. But "Kate" is still • fast, ingeniously amusing ming-andelancer. boast-ing some of the finest tunes and sprightliest lyrics that Cole Porter has ever written. It dances. singe end moves with precision. And If the current version Mows the pristine bloom of the peach a little shopworn, it remains nonetheless a rollicking sood show-and a decided bargain at current prices.

Stilly Harris and Robert Wright are now the feuding Heaping pair embro il-ed in Shakesperean didoes. Miss Holly is a triple-threat gal - vocally, pictorially and as an actress. Wright has an excellent way with a song. Is personable and, when not indulg. Cm In cute mannerisms. comports himself admirably. Marilyn Day does line with such nowlong-familiar numbers as "Why Can't YOU Behave" and "True to You in My Fashion.. Frank Derbas does not do so well with his sing-ing and dancing assignments. Hank Henry and Sparky Knee give matters a fine lilt as the stage-struck thugs who become Shakespeare conscious.

In spite of minor deficiencies, the show has pace and spontan-iety. The dance patterns remain excellent and, of course, the grand Porter score is still a treat to listen to. "Kate" deserves to get a good play at the Broadway There must be a lot of customers who haven't seen it, and the cur-rent edition ta worth every penny of the $3.110 tog, Bob Francis.

LaTella Overcomes Biz Cramps in Utah SALT LAKE CITY, Jan. 12.—

Altho only in operation since Oc-tober 13, Joe D. LaTelle reports buainess at his Capitol Roller Rink here at • good level de-spite stiff competition two blocks away from a rink twice the size. The Capitol wu named No-

vember 17 following a .name the rink" contest conducted by the operator, who offered prizes for the best names suggested. LaTelle took over a building at 460 South State Street which formerly was used as a dance hall and still ear-lier was known as Mapleway Roller Rink when it was oper-ated by Gordon R. Woolley. re-tired since 1949. LaTella credits free instruc-

tion classes. including use of skates, as the most important factor in building his business. These class« (one following the Monday session, one before the Wedneidae seon and one pro-ceding the Saturday matinee for kiddies) have produced three re-sults: II) They automatically produced good attendance at the contiguous skating session; (2) they have produced a surprising number of steady patrons and (3), many of the skaters are now buying their own skates front the rink.

Kids Have Conscience "At first skaters just came for

the free classe, then took off their skates and went home," said La. Tells. "Soon, however, it ap-eared that their consciences bothered them, and a close check revealed that not a single skater took advantage of me more than twice. In other words, in addition to attending the free class, they now skate the session for which they pay. The only time they do not is when they honestly can't make it"

Tickets are sold for the skat-ing session before the class starts, and these are processed first. Then those who are not staying

for the session must sign their names for free skates, and after the chub these skates must be re-turned and the names checked off. This gives LaTella a perfect check on all skaters who have not bought tickets. Everyone who is not staying for the session. whether they own their skates or net, must check In and out. The classes are announced at each ses-sum, and skaters are directed to a booth to register for clam cards which. incidentally, gives LaTella a mailing list. When Friday attendance proved

to be alarmingly poor. LaTelle made it junior high school night. He had 1.000 discount tickets printed and 2,000 handbills which told the kids all atout the rink and the 25-cent discount if they presented the ticket or their school activity card at the box of-fice. LaTella covered seven junior high schools in distributing the material after school. The first Friday night he emptied his skate room and the night has been big ever since.

Omuta« School Club "Honoring the school activity

card gives me a perfect approach to the school principal in asking his aid in organising • school skating club, since the activity card ie worth 25 cents every time it is presented at my box office," said LeTella. "I've tried it once and organized one club, and hope to have more before

CHRISTMAS CHEER

Holiday Promotion Big at Cum)/ Arena

CINCINNATI, Jan. 12.—Success of the Cincinnati Garden's ex-periment with industrial Chrbt-roes parties, December 20-23, prompted General Manager Alex Sinclair this week to predict a bright future for the promotion in Cincinnati and to offer the idea to other arena managers as a possible solution to their prob-lem of darkened buildings in a season that is normally dull for the amusement business.

Sinclair was enthusiastic in re-porting the outcome of the 1951 promotion, and pointed out that the idea can be equally successful in other cities it arena managers are willing to do a little pro-motion work in lining up a worth. while attraction and the neces-sary' sponsors from the field of big business.

Mssisially flessefk-lal The Garden chief points out

that the promotion is a natural, both for the arena and the in-dustrial employer. From the lat-ter's point of view the promotion does important public relations and labor relations jobs. In re-cent years there has been much criticism via press and radio con-cerning industrial Christrnm par-ties held in plants. Employers, feeling that they had to go all out in throwing a wingding of a party, sometimes went overboard

New Year's "Opry" Clicks By DAPHNE (DF.E) POLI

CANTON. 0.. Jan. 12.—Altho opened to the public in October with 'holiday on Ice.- the new $1,250,000 Memorial Auditorium here was not officially dedicated until December 30, when military and veteran representatives spoke. The "Grand 01' Opine played to two sellout perform-ances on New Year's Day.

Story of the new aud began in May, 1940, when the 36-year-old auditorium in use then was closed on recommendation of the fire chief. Reconstruction of the old building would have cost $175,-000. A citizens' advisory group said the old structure should be replaced.

In 1948 the contract was let and $56,300 was received from the federal government to pay for planning. Dv November, 1949, technicalities had been worked out, ground was broken and a three-man management board was created by the city council. After the board was declared illegal by • ruling of the Ohio attorney general, the council asked the

t‘r.gto name a manager for the

buRilalph D. Smith, Canton grocer with experience in show business and promotion, was appointed to the post. A 10.year contract for the operation of concessions was signed in August, 1051, with Sportsservice. Inc.. the only bidder.

Busy Eked Booked "Holiday on ice" opened the

building October 2, &the con-struction was not yet completed. Subsequent bookings have in-cluded "Fledermaus," "0 k I a. horns," "Biggest Show of '51,"

first skating session. held in Oc-tober; when plans were formed to organize the club. Emily Melville, Whalum rink pro, instructed the class, and Ube Beerelis reported that intense interest on the part of girls indicated rapid expansion of the club.

"Harvey," wrestling, herne shows and conventions. Coaling are °S-car Levant, January 25; Ballet Theater, January 30; Gene Autry, February 1; "Skating Vanities," February 26-March 2: Nelson Eddy, March 24, and "Mr. Roberts," May 21. Almost all pro-motion is handled by LCL Pres-entations, Inc., Canton.

Over-all size of the aud is 174 by 302 feet. High point of the peaked roof is 611 feet above floor, and the floor is 85 by IN. Floor is reinforced concrete and capable of handling ice shows, circuses, rodeos, and large exhibitions. There are 3,500 permanent seats and 3.000 portable seats. Capacity for arena-type shows is about 1.500. Prosccoium opening is 24.5 by

83 feet while stage depth la 40 feet. There are two booths above the seats for press and radio use and a catwalk on each side can accommodate television cameras Or special lighting equipment. Power lin« enter Use building underground. Three transformers step down the 4.000 volts to 110 and 220 volts. Light fixtures in the main auditorium can be lowered on cabin The Canton Room, for small

meetings or exhibitions, is on the second floor.

In providing too much spiritism refreshments with the result that all too frequently, workers en mute home from parties, were involved in auto accidents that sometimes proved fatal.

Sinclair brought in Harold Steinman'. "Skating Vanities" as the party attraction. Altho the season is traditionally a vacation period for such shows, Steinman accepted after considerable urg-ing by Sinclair. Now that the local promotion was • success, Steinman's action may be the opening wedge in luring other extravaganzas into the arena Christmas party fold in other towns. Seven large firms signed to

sponsor parties. Sinclair reported. These were Cincinnati Milling Machine Company, which con-tributed 9.700 guests; Crosley Di-vision of Avco Manufacturing Corporation and Aluminum In-dustries, 8,400, and Palm Bros: Decalcomania Company, J. H. Day Company, Cmiton Machine Tool Company and Goldsmith Metal Lath Company, who con-tributed audiences ranging from COO to 1,400 each. The Carden sold the show on the basis of the number of company employees. In cases where personnel was not sufficient to fill the house, work-ers from several companies were combined and tickets were put on sale for the public.

Hoes Potential Sponsors In addition, the Garden invited

as its guests management per-sonnel of a number of other large firms which Sinclair believes are potential sponsors of parties. The idea was to show the man-agements of these firms what could be done in the way of safe and sane Christmas parties. These lirons, numbering about 25, in-cluded such top companies as Formica, General Electric, Globe. Wernekd, Lunkenhcimer, H. & S. Pogue department store, Allis-Chalmers, Emery Industries. Ford Motor and Electric Auto Lite. Personnel manager's of these

firms were impressed with the promotion, said Sinclair, and it Is likely that the Carden pro-motion will be expanded for the 1952 Christmas reason. Now that the local ice bas been broken, and company officials have seen what can be done along this line, he feels that the Garden will be able to sign at least nine or 10 big companies for next season. Com-pany employees and member, of their families who attended 1951 parties thoroly enjoyed the show, said Sinclair, who predicts that tickets for the 19.52 attraction will be at a premium.

Sinclair feels that the promo-tion has opened • new field for arena.. With sponsoring concerns footing the bill, he said, the pro-motion gives the Garden rental on nights that would otherwise be dark, keeps its personnel working and creates goodwill for the sponsoring firms.

Roadshow Rep NEAL HOLDEN pens from

Awes., Me.: "I was ple.ed re. • recent item .ncerning

the en when the 10-20-30 shows were in biome= and it took me beck to the days when I was in Beverly, Mass., with Allen Show Print Company, whieh did most at the one and three-sheet and ether larger advertising paper for these shows. Now and again we would get an order late in the afternoon and get it out be-fore we left the shop that night. Perh.sps there it a rep reader who knows the home town base of that good rep actress, Flay CrowelL I was pleased to read about George Donaldson and I see George whenever 1 happen to be in Boston. George dates back to the day. of Austin and Stone's in the Hub City when Predmees Heaclaboon was the lecturer at the spot; the days of Jim De>. minstrel singer of note; r. and Word and Crowley and Foley and many others. Who re-member, the old Dewey Theater, in Gloucester. Maas. arid the Ox-ford in Lynn?"

flAN CONBETT write. from '''Waltham, Mass., "I get a kirk out of the new, of old-timers of rep and minstrel note. Last sum-mer I was working a crew on magazines in New working and met a number of old-hmers who recalled the old days. I struck Ware, Mass, and it brought beck memories of the days I was with .1. C. Rockwell and his Sunny South Show under canvas. HOW' ever. I met only one person who could carry on a conversation about Rockwell and his shows. And, In the old days, Rockwell's Sunny South kept Ware in the news. At Salem and Lynn. Mass., there am still a few left who can amain about the many shows that went out of both cities. At Ray Dwyer's hotel hv Fitchburg. Mass., 1 met Jack Kenney. of Kenney and Hollis. and we rut

pold days. Jack then made im rclenty of jackpots about the

'a hoe in Worcester. Man. At Attleboro, Mass., I struck up an acquaintance with a.store keeper who wonted to talk about the Perry & Patton Show that vient out for many years from that city. At Portland, Me., I couldn't find anyone who knew about Vie and John D.E.. topnotch acrobats of their time. and while I was in Augusta and Bangor, Me., I looked for someone who could go hack to the days of Prince Webber but had no luck. At Bath. Me., I had no luck at getting news of the old-timer, Ed

Brawn, club swinger and circus man, but at Haverhill, Mass, I cut up jackpots with several who knew Deane !Punch) Irving. old-time Sod Side Sher PIIIID, and the clerk at the hotel where I stepped remembered Fletcher Smith. who was well known as an advance agent. It just provea that no matter how high you may fly in show b.inem, you are mon forgotten."

Uhl' E. EVANS. widely known in rep and tent-show cirbles as

Rey Luling.» is in Ward IA, Room 3M, Veterans' Hospital, Marion, Ill., where he has been re-ceiving treatment for a bronchial and throat disorder for the past four weeks. He expects to be confined there for at lewd four more weeks and would like to read ietters from friends. . The Ertel Family is playing school assembly shows in Indiana under the Knel's Indoor Show bannrr. . . Frank and Irving Jackson are showing religious pia in New Hampshire following • fair season with a feature film in Quebec. . . Halvey Trio. family unit, is rehearsing • new drama bill and will make • coast' to-coast tour with it_ Opening is act for Idesmch.etts and • nephew of the family, Allen Roth., will agent the unit. For • number of years the Halveya have promoted amateur groups with musical and drama bills under sponsors and may work this line in some spots as they go along The Harvey, are descendants o the family that had 10-20-30 shows in the East when that style of entertainment prospered.

R L. WARDEN pens from Jamestown, Pa., that he has

been doing fair with his solo show altho he has encountered what he terms Moo much win-ter" Warden says, however, that "when I have bad good weather I have had good business and toy sponsors have been satisfied. 1 am moving West and probably will wind up on the West Coast. I have been over this route be-fore and know the spots to duck and them where I can get some change. There are some of these Southwest and Western spots that are not worth beans and others that are good show spots. It's in the latter locations where I ex-pect to see the welcome mat laid out for me. This business is one for plugger., not drones If you like moving around it's great, but if you don't just stay home and read about it. Y. wouldn't like it il you don't like real trouping."

IAFE Gets Appeal To End Conflict Of State Meetings

Association's Co-Operation Is Urged ro Avoid Overlapping Conventions

CHICACtit Jan. 12.—Mounting Irritation over conflicting State fair convention dates was voiced by many Midwest showmen this week, and some did more than talk about it; they petitioned the International Association of Fain and Expositions to step in and assist in working out conventions that would not conflict. Four attraction reps and one

show sumlier at the convention of the Minnesota Federation of County Fairs in St. Paul this week }ninny wrote Frank ICintonen, SAFE serretary, asking that group's co-operation in devising future schedules that would elimi-irate conflicts. The petitioners were Aut Swen-

son of the Swenson Thrilleadet Ernie Young of the Chicago book. tog agency bearing his name: George B. Flint of the Boyle Wool. folk Agency, Chicago: Frank Winkley, auto race promoter. and Hill Lindemann. wiles rep of the Regalia Manufacturing Company.

Pointing out that they are as-sociate members of several State associations, they urged the 'AYE to give "your consideration and assistance in effecting a co-opera-tive working arrangement among the State associations to the end that their meetings be to timed that associate members may at-tend the said conventions, which, at the present time. is not possible in many instance. due to their conflicting dates." "We believe," they added. "that

such a plan can be worked out to the benefit of all. It would enable the fairs to make direct contact with key personnel of the attractions offered, and a more representative field of attraction* would be made available for con sideration The booking agenciee would be in a Meer position to more efficiently work out melange with greater productive possibili-ties." Kingman replied to each of the

five petitioners, advising them that he would try to work out saine corrective measures. He did not indicate what he had in mind. One State association secretary.

saying that he wu open to mg-gestions as to what could be done to avoid cenflicta. The McMinn and Illinois con-

ventions the week of January 20 overlap, and Kelley pointed out that he had gone to considerable length, to avoid a conflict this year.

"Early last spring we made a number of long distance calls at-tempting to »tut dates that would not conflict with Ohio or Illinois." Kelley said. "We had expected to set our dates for the week of January 13. However. in conversation with Ohio of-ficials we were told that due to an Ohio la« it was neccessery for them to use that week. "As Ohio is located close to

Michigan. we decided to take the week of January 20 against our judgment and made arrangements with the hotel. After we were all set we received word from Ohio that they were changing to the week of January 5 due to pre-vious committments by the hotel and that left us on the Illinois dates and there was nothing we could do about it."

Last week, meetings in Indiana and Wisconsin conflicted, and this week conventions in Ohio. Ken-tucky, Kansas, Minnesota end Missouri overlapped. Three con-untiona will overlap the week of January 20. They are Nebraska. Illinois and Michigan. Other convention, that win con-

flict in the weeks ahead are Mon-tana and Oklahoma. South Caro-lina and Massachusetts, and (leor-gia and North Carolina.

St. Paul Fair Reaps 132G Profit in '51

R. S. Thornton Named President, Thompson to Board

ST. PAIR, Jan. 12.—Minne-sota State Fair, deepite rain on seven of its 10 days, wound up its '51 fair with a total profit of $132,467.36, Douglas K. Baldwin, secretary, announced here this week at the annual meeting of the State Agricultural Society.

This profit was off from the 1950 operating net of $252,796.38. Total fair income during the past year amounted to $1.154,312.41 while expenses aggregated $1,-030,-545.05. 'he said. Income from the sale of lie.kets was $545,-654.02 with tax on admissions totaling $120,620.45. Income from concessions and commercial ex-hibits was $201,124 M. a new all-time record, the previous high being $16'5.360.23. Baldwin pointed out that de-

spite the bad weather, ettendance was only a few thousand below the record set in 1950. He also said that plan, for • new ad-ministretion building have been shelved due to the excessive emit and the uncertainty of the times.

WON'T STOP RAIN, BUT:

Infra-Red Heat Could Dry - Muddy Lots, Expert Says

CHICAGO. Jan. 12.—Possibility that camases, carnival', fairs and parks could devise infra-red equipment to dry up muddy lots was advanced here by the district engineer of a major electrical equipment manufacturing com-pany.

His statement was In reply to an inquiry by The Billboard after infra-roi was used to dry a foot' ball field for a University of Cali-fornia game. The engineer. J. F. Herbener,

of the General Electric Company, said many variables make it in. possible to say whether the system would be satisfactory. But he said that be believed the idea would be worth a test.

Gaunter. Ideal Beebe'''ar said that circuses and

carnivals carrying their own power plants would be most likely to succeed with the plan because they would have an inexpenshe source of adequate power. An investment of about $500 In

infra-red lamp bulbs would be the primary cost to a show having generators and cables on hand, he said. Herbenar envisioned a battery

of 250 lampo which. he estimated. would cover 80 equare feet at a time. These would comprise e full load for a 00 kilowatt light plant and could he used during morn-ings, when the plants would other-wise be idle. The lights would be mounted on a low-slung trailer or on a series of low frames. He believed that an ideal plan would call for the trailer to be pulled over the lot by the generator truck, if the wet ground could be traveled. Otherwise, the trailer or frames could be equipped with long cables and moved periodi-cally as sections of the ground were dried.

lafta-red N.M. he explained, put out much heat and little light. The heat would serve te evaporate water in the ground but would not be enough to re-move puddle., he stated. The lamps are used by industries to

opeed the drying of paint and for other purposes. Herbenar has some mounted in his garage and min them to warm the automobile motor before leaving hio house on cold mornings. He conceded that time available

to shows in many cams might not be enough for the lamps to make an important improvement in the ground. However. he said that a test might show that time wee adequate on one-day stands. Longerttands would allow enough time, he believed.

It was considered likely that shows would be unable to dry an entire lot. But liklihood that the system meld be isard for mid-ways or spare around 'ticket wagons, concession stands and entrances was teen.

EDITORIAL

Way to End Conflicts Attraction bookers, carnival representative., fall-MOW

suppliers and fair executives are properly indignant over the cenfliet.riddled schedule of fair convention dates this year.

The need to !Void such conflicto is vital to all concerned. And State fair association executivee are quick to agree and are eager to devise a way to prevent future conflicts.

It should be possible te work out a plan_ Probably the ben would be thru the International Association of Psirs and Expositions or the Federation of State and Provincial Mee-nations of Fairs, which is part of the SAFE.

Probably the best time would be during the annual coo-vet:Mons of these groups at Chicago in December.

Cooventioo Preparations In preparation for such a meeting. State associatiossa

which have their convention dates arbitrarily fixed by State laws, should report that, along with the dates thus set.

Also in preparation for the Mt.-fixing meeting, State association representatives on the eve of their departure for the Chicago meeting, should establish Use hotel avellabili-ties in their convention cities—as many availabilities a. possible.

Sitting together in Chicago. with all the information at hand, it should be possible for the various State representa-tives to draft a schedule of conventions that do not conflict.

Changes Needed At the same meeting, State association representatives

might be well advised to go a little further: they might review the entire subject of State conventions. with a view to making their own more effective.

Some conventions run two or three days, not because they need that much time, but largely out of either habit or because they packed up a neighbor's pattern and fashioned their own, convention to it.

Some conventions that run no more than two deys are ex-tremely effective, not only from the standpoint of booking but from the fruitfulness of the formal sessions. Some conven-tions would do well to eut down to one day. Attendance would be greater atad delegates and showmen would get more out of the convention.

"GREATEST SHOW ON EARTH"

Gotham Reviewers High In Praise of R-B Flicker

NEW YORK, Jam 12.—If the reviews published in daily news-papers here of Paramount Pic-tures' "The Greatest Show on Earth" are any criterion, the nialia should play a merry tune at the box office, both for Paramount and R.B.

Flicker was unveiled at Radio City Mule Hall Thursday (10). and the reviews appearing in yes-terday's papen were effusive. Leading the parade was The Daily News, which gave the film a sep-ante-page scanning under a ban-ner headline. The News was sure the picture would be at the Music Hall until R-B arrives for its Garden date, usually in April, and that it would be 'listed at the head of the top money-making fAMS" for 052. News daily circulation is about 2,287,000. New York Times, usually re-

served, delivered a bouquet rarely

given. The Tim« was high on the scrupulous accuracy of the film and sald that "this huge motion picture of the big tort Is the dan-diest ever put on the screen." The power of the picture "is in the brilliance with which its portrays the circus and all its movement." according to the paper.

man's eye sought a partner with

The advertiser turned out to be a

one-man manufacturer of midway

devices similar to today's pinball

games. Impressed by forecasts of

big profits that awaited such •

gem on Chicago lots, the youthful

Garman came up with the 8200

to finance the manufacture of two

of the games.

Several weeks later on a pert-

odkal visit to check the MateSI

on the devices. Garman found bis

partner had skipped the city after

finishing one game and leaving

another partly completed. Upon

learning he was just one of many

partners in the deal. Garman took

While this was his first outdoor

experience. Carman earlier had

tember 20. 1900. he originate

started to follow the footsteps of

his father, a surcessful dentist, and

in order to help finance his edu-

cation, took all after-school job as an usher in Chicago legit theaters.

After • few years, he and his

brother. Cecil, took over the Moak

room concession there and before

long the two school boys were

both earning in the neighborhood

of 890 per week.

This lucrative business, which

included operations at luth the

Woods and Cuban's Grand thea-

ters, ended after two years when

a big chain moved into the eity

and took over most of the check-

ing business in Chi's theaters.

After his first venture with his

gems, German was bit by the lure

of the midway and in 1923 bought

crash had occurred the previous

fall, the effects were not felt until

after July 4. when Uie bottom fell out, and the new Sunset ore wee

kicky to get bark into the barn

at the end of its tour.

By the spring of 1931 the coon-

try had sunk deeper into the de-

Pression, but the Germans, tho out

of ready cash, managed to take

their unit on the road. They sus-

tained plenty of trard knocks that

year but succeeding in staying out

the full summer. Garman took

the show out again in 1932 and

while the tour wu no better than

the previous year, he was able.

thru shrewd management, to keep

his head above water.

Turning Poinl

The 1933 season was the turning

point and after discouraging still

dates, business picked up on July

4 and a home made Kiddie Auto

ride was framed.

In 1934, with, the economic sit-

uation improved. a Loop,o,Planc

was purchased from the late Ab-

ner Kline: Garman recalls that

most show owners were out of

cash in those days told • novel

method of selling rides was used.

Kline brought the ride to the 101

and with his wife. Virginia, selling

tickets. Operated the device for a

week. If the show owner then

decided to take it, receipts for that

week were used as the down pay-

ment.

Once the depression was

weathered, the Garman show con-

tinued to grow and a ride was

added here and there until today

it boasts • Une-up 01 12 major de-

vices. In addition, four kid rides

are booked and the backend

usually includes eight shows.

With the up•turn in conditions in 1931. Garman moved out of

Illinois for the first time, invading

Iowa and later added fairs in

State Aid Looming For Blue Grassers

Green Light Would Be Trail Blazing Means of Improving Kentucky Events

Its ti2,11OF.1111 II

LOUISVILLE. Jar,. 12.—Hottest piece of news to come out of the fourth annual convention of the Kenturky Association of Fairs and Horse Shows, held January 10-Il in the Brown Hotel here, was the announcement by Commissioner of Agriculture: Ben S. Adams that an appropriation for the «Id of fain would be sought in the cor-rent session of the Legislature. Brown broke the good nees

during the Thursday night Roof Garden banquet at which he was principal speaker. He would mat divulge the amount to be asked, but said that the subject Is to be brought up Tuesday 115/ during a legislative sesskin at Frankfort.

Tough Going Kentucky (airmen have been

pushing hard for State aid to fairs for several years. They almost scored in 1950. but a last-minute log nm of "must" legislation ore-vented passage of a bill which ',add have appropriated 875.000 annually for mounts fairs and 3 maximium of 82.000 per fair.

If the new effort, of which Corn-misstoner Ad.its spoke. closely approximates those figures, it will mean much to Kentucky fain. which have been hard pressed for years for funds with which to carry on procreative programs. Two years age. at the association's 1950 meeting. fairmen frankly ad-mitted that their annuals suffered in comparison with fain of other States, and sew in State aid the means by which they could ele-vate the quality of their fairs. About 50 (airmen attending this

year's rondave voted to return the meeting to the Brown Hotel in 1952, but set dates of January 8.9 so that their meeting doca not overlap the Ohio (airmen's con-Ventinn. The Kentucky meeting suffered this vean because its dates overlapped -Ohio's. The many fairs represented at the Buckeye meeting Was a lure which drew many' showrnereechibitnrs to Ohio. with the result that only about 25 turned up at the gathering here.

New Seerelary-T...ar Second biggest piece of news

Louisville, who served as secre-tary for the pgst three years, was given a rising vote of than. • 1100 check in appreciation of hid work, end was elevated to the vice-presidency.

anca, arrangements and legisla-tive committees, and pledged sup-port of association projects and Mutual co-operation.

PERHAPS IT WAS THE PURPLE COW

RALEIGH. N. C. Jan. 12.— Topics listed for after-banquet speakers at the Friday (18) meeting of North Carolina Association of Agricultural Fairs here definitely accent the off-beat. Sam Mods, director of many

big car racing events in the Ea.. and Jack K.hman. thrill show operator, are set to tell "Why We Like Hadarni." L. Y. Hatband.. State cornmietinner of agriculture, will explain "How I Beat the Governor Milking the Cow." A bit enigmatic is Carl Goerch's topic. -When I Was Mr, De Fore." Program states that "the

banquet will be informal, and ladies are expected to attend." At another point it informs the distaff aide that they "will be permitted to wear mink coats."

the 24-sheet poster panel series and transit cards used previously. Schmidt said the precinto pro-gram was considered too diluted. The snipes will range up to 24 sheets and will involve eight or nine times as many locations as last year's set-up. Much attention will be given to

hits on highways leading Into Chi-cago. he said, as a pitch to out-of-lown trade. A survey showed 40 per rent of the park's automo-bile business which could be checked rame from outside of Chicago, and the new plan Is to seek even a higher percentage.

Mail Plea Studied Up for study is Riverview's

long standing system of direct mail advertising. A mailing list developed by the park over the years and including about 1300.000 names has been used for circulat-ing season passes. Last season the spot tested several smaller but entirely new lists and won • spec-ticular 20 per cent reply where less than 5 per cent would have been considered good. In view of this, Schmidt said, the park is strongly considering substituting new lists for the old on a larger scale this year. Routine maintenance work

under way at the park, with a crew of about 40 men usually at work. This project will continue with clean-up tasks until about April 1, when the force will be en. lagged and the annual pre-season refurbishing will get under way in earnest. Dick Best again will have the

Side Show at Riverview. His op-eratton won strong and expanding business last season, with a three-legged girl being the top attrac-tion Schmidt said that govern-mental building restrictions would hold back Riverview's work again this season.

Execs Call Season Best in History, Predict Bigger Returns in 1952

ATLANTIC CITY. Jan. 12.—In pile of all the dire predictions and the wails et regular intervals from many quarters, business in At-lantic City soared to new heights in 1951. Survey figures showed that the dollar turnover. or busi-ness settled by check here during the year. exceeded three-quarters, oí a biUian doUars for the first' time in the resort's history. Ac' cording to the survey, dollar turn-over totaled 9788,1100,000, which is 16 04 per cent ahead of the pre-vious year and nearly four and a half times the 1939 volume. And local business leaders predict 1952 will be at least as good, if not better, than 1951. The survey figures were taken

from the official record of debit charges against checking accounts maintained in local banks by busi-nesses and individuals, compiled by the Federal Reserve Board. The outlook for 1952 is even

more promising in the opinion of such local leaders as Albert A. Marks Jr., president of the Cham-ber of Commerce; Jack Lippmentt, president of the Hotel Associa-tion: Albert H. Skean. manager of the Convention Bureau: Gerald Trench, president of the Res-taurant Association; Arthur A.

Chamber presi-dent Marts predicted tautness wIll remain on a high level. adding: "There is little doubt but than Atlantic City enjoyed the greatest season in the year juat ending. While there was more than a seasonal lull during the late fall. because of the cyclical absence of some large conventions, t think we may look forward to an even greater year in 1952." He further pointed out that the upswing in convention business, plus the ad-ditional traffic that can be ex-pected from the opening of the

Delaware Memorial Bridge and the New Jersey Turnpike. should combine to keep business activity here on the "tipper shelf- for an extended period. Hotelman Lippincott said the

outlook for 1952 looks very prom-ising. He said all hotels enjoyed good business in 1951, particularly during the spring and summer, and with the increase in conven-tion trade, 1952 should he a good year for both regular and conven-tion business For the local met. chanta.

"Jan-uary looks good, he ma."wIth the canner's convention. We can't expect much in February and March. Beginning with Eas-ter, which comes in April, we can expect the remainder of the year to be as good, if not better, than this year." Amstutz, as secretary of both

the Chamber and Hotel Associa-tion, said all indications point to another banner year. He said the Hotel Association's housing bu. rum had more calls for accorn-modatkins during week ends and holidays last summer than ever before. In addition to the regu-lar visitor trade and convention busineu Amstutz reminded that the resort will have the Mid-At-lantic Farm Show in December when LOWS St. John, chairnun of he show's board, expects to at-tract more than 100.000 winter visitors to the resort.

EYE PRIZE ROUTE

Easterners Load Up To Stalk "A" Circuit

NEW YORK, Jan. 12.—For the first time in a number of years a full complement of Eastern rep-resenting>es Will attend the West-er, Canada 'Association of Ex-hibitions meeting at Winnipeg. January 21-23, to demonstrate their interest in the prized A Ci, coat. Representatives of at least one org are prepared to Partici-pate actively us the bidding. Frank Bergen, general man-

ager of the World of Mirth Shows, has assigned the Western mission to his agent, Gerald Snellens. This will be the first appearance made by a World of Mirth expo at the Western confab in more than a decade. Bergen indimIed that Snel-

len's attendanre, this year will be exploratory in perms, but said that his show was definitely in-termted in and equipped to play the dates. Bergen and Concession Manager Bernard Mucky) Allen will attend the Eastern meetings, altho booking interest is nil since the show's fair mute is solid.

G&W kneels Jack Wilson and lui' Cet/in

are believed araisss,a to make a strong bid on behalf of their

& Wilson Shows, With Agent Ralph Lockett in assist, they have potent three-wny meneuverabil.

ity in reaching out for choice

spots since the Eastern and West-ern fair meetings also command their attention. The C&W group has strength.

ened its fair route each seas- since going on nits and the owners are quick to admit that they are anxi-ous to engineer additional gal..

Scheduled to attend again and ever.ready to corne up with a timely proposition on behalf of the James E. Strates Shows is Curtis Bock., general agent. Owner Strates has never lost an opportunity to strengthen has route, and even the admitted big job involved in running a big show is not enough to curtail his show business activities as was demonstrated this winter when he revived the Johnny J. Jones Show title and launched a new railroad unit.

Eastern biggim brush aside all of the probleins, concerning trans. Cortation principally. that are usually voiced in connection with the A Circuit. They are ail ad-mirably emipped with show and ride equipment and literally building at the scams in this re-sPect. Bock., the careful planner,

has the situation well in hand, analytically speaking. He has ill-

vesttgated every passible contin-gency end has answers ready.

Jority opinion voiced the view thin a lottery does not exist merely thru the mailing of a salesboard. 'The court explained that the lot-tery does not develop until the salesboard ii actually placed in operation by the recipient.

operated mechanical herse, which has already opened new types of locations and brought new op-erating interests into the trade, "galloped". toward still other mar-kets in a test recently conducted by the Balaban di Katz theater chain and the Exhibit Supply Company. Tho the basic idea behind the

test was to promote interest in a first run showing of the picture "Man in the Saddle" at the M-ellen Theater here, the results and perfOrinirsee of the mechanical horses used, Big Broncos, pointed up the value of such units as a logical promotion and also the preen.rc, made by the coin.oper-'fled immaement industry. Four Big Broncos were used b.

the test and in a six-day period racked up a total of 6,900 rides on the horses without a single service breakdown. The horses used in the experiment were set 'p for free play at the suggestion of Exhibit Supply executives be-cause of the type of picture on the screen. On the basis of the 6,900 nd. at 10 cents per ride each Big Bronco accounted for $172 50 for the brief test period.

Eric De Stoutz, head of a distrib-uting-operating company with headquarters in Geneva" flaw visiting here. They reflect, he pointed out, the wholesome growth nf a people, fortunate enough to be spared the hardshiPS of world wan, depressions and bum..

years in Switzerland. De Stout: entered the coin machine industry after becoming an 11.11111,1-te‘ of Wurlitzer organs. The initial products he handled were music machines. Tho the juke boxes have had a geed pertormance rec-ord, the biggest problem has been finding enough suitable locations. Thisa far. ti t> most popular stops have been establishments, cons. parable to cafeterias in the United States. Taverns, one of the best types of coin machine locations in the U.S., are nn an entirely dif-ferent scale in the Alpine nation. They are small and accommodate

t ow,er,te s n people o troy, simultaneouslyp and t suit-able juke box locations. The other deterrent to the expansion of mu-sic routes in the country is that natives have not as yet developed an interest in the automatic type of commercial muter. The genie situation is even

more difficult for the eiseratur. De Stouts pointed out. Only those units which the police have desig-nated as meeting all playing prin-ciples are permitted These In turn must also be approved by local authorities in areas which are similar to an individual State in the United States. Ilms far tri the best of De Stout.% memory only a few games have qualified.

The Oregon Liquor Control Com-mission, at its January meeting in Salem Thursday (10), bypassed scheduled consideration of a reg-ulation designed to ban pinball games from taverns thrisout the State Altho the liquor commi.ion

has refused to go along with the Pertland City Commission in 11-demand that tavern operator. promise In eliminate games in order to obtain beverage licenses, the liquor board h5a drafted pro-posed regulations that would have the same effect un a State-wide basis.

Duffles, Novelty Mfrs. By-Pass Self Op to Develop Supplier Role

CHICAGO, Jan. 12.—With over 12,000 ice cream venders on lo-cation over the country. large and small ice cream novelty manufac-turers are evidencing increased interest in supplying the new volume outlet. A survey uf sup-pliers by Vend, sister publication of The Billboard, and findings during the recent international Ice Cream Manuf art urers' conven• Pon in Detroit revealed that the general trend of supplier thinking is away from self-operation and is now directed toward the straight supplier role.

In preparation for the heavier selling season ahead. when East-ern, Northern and Midwestern areas see a boost in ice cream volume commencing in April and lasting thru October. novelly sup-pliers are already formulating new mles promotions in which the vender is an important factor. While bar sales now continue on a high level the,, the year in these areas, the extra volume realized ici the summer months will again be substantially improved by the 12,325 venders scattered in high volume pile sales markets (The Billboard. January 12). Too, the value of such mles with regard to brand promotion is another vender benefit only now being generally recognized by the ice cream manufacturer.

While the larger sulzPliee• Ber. den. Swift and others, have been encouraging the independent op-erator yin financing equipment. the smaller manufacturer has quietly been courting vender sale by obtaining both special molds for bars and offering delivery to either Ill operatnr's headquarters or 12) to individual machines on location. An example of the latter (by a large supplier. Borden) is the delivery to the 30 cream venders installed lima the Chicago subway system by Mechanical Merchants.' Inc. No small contribution to the

straight supplier role now being favored for venders by the ice cream industry in general is that profit is as large or larger than

that realized by the manufacturer who attempts to operate. A further operator aid arc the

He said the 15 members at-tending the session were "pretty definite" that if the bill passed 'large operators with a big over-head could not stay in business." However, Lindelof said the

MOA National Convention Off; Business-Election Meeting On

Proximity to Bryson Bill Hearings Forces Move, Says George A. Miller

OAKLAND. Calif., Jan. 12. — George A. Miller, president of the Music Operators of America, an-novinced this week that MOA's na. tional convention and exhibition has been canceled.

Ingtead. Milk's- said. the 140A will hold • business and election-of-officers meeting in Chicago's Palmer Boone on the original con-vention dates of March 3-3. The MOA president said the

convention-exhibition was called off in the "unanimous opinion" of all concerned because of its prox-imity ta the hearing on the con-troversial Bryson Bill slated to start February 4 in Washington.

Miller further warned that Bey-eon Bill hearings or other factors might force postponement of even the Muni» - election meeting. Tee note of uncertainty was in-terjected, Miller said, because "no one can assume how long that hearing, will last or how many music operators and other wit-nesses will be called ... to testify." The ASCAP-sponaored Bryson

Bill, if paased, would impose • performance tax on juke boxes and it has aroused the opposition of operators and manufacturers acmes the nation.

shortages of materials there would be little, if any, new merchandise displayed and the expense of hold-ing the exhibit would 'work a hardship on many when the money is needed so badly for neceseary expelas."

All who sent in cheeks to pay for exhibit space will have their money refunded.

CunInk has been in the coin

In the machine ia a standard juke box selection panel with 20 buttons and 20 numbered title strips naming the tunes carried for sale in the machine.

In a seml-eircle from each aide of the selector are 20 verticle "pockets" or compartments num-bered correspondingly with the

title Nell». Each compartment holds a stock of IS records of the same tune. The speaker is located on • shelf behind and above the counter. By pressing • button on the se-

lector panel, a prospective cus-tomer hears one and a half min-utes of the tune. If the customer decides, he wan* to buy the disk be reaches in the correspondingly numbered compartment, pulls out one of the records stocked there and takes It to • clerk. The plastic number panels over
