EDITORIAL

Resolution for Radio, TV Broadcasters A tough and .,,et guy will always take advantage at a

push-over.- That's one of the lent, attractive and most undeni-able facets of human nature. And there's no doubt in our minds that that tough and smart guy known as the major national advertiser (and his agency) did an excellent job of making a push-over out of radio in 1951.

The big advertiser found his organized effort Inn matter how loosely or untraceably organized, it was organized never-theless) to scare radio into rutting rates eminently successful. Naturally the big advertiser worked on the network level. where dog-eat-dog competition indicated he could do his de-structive best And he was right, but the effects are still being felt not only by the networks, but thruout radin.

And haying found the radio networks the simplest kind of push-over, it's our opinion that that tough, smart national advertiser is new attempting, unbelievable as it sounds, the same caper cn television. On page one last week we reported • whale flack at surveys being launched by natinnal adver-tisers and agencies to "determine the true impact of television irons a dollars-and-cents result-producing basis."

And by what the mere naive will lank linen as a coinci-dence. The Wall Street Journal e December 28 carried a page one store telling about the high cost of TV "Sponsors," said The Wall Street Journal headline. "Fret Under Cost Load--

They'll Prove Plenty

We have a sneaking suspicion that these advertiser-agency surveys, rollectively, will unearth the startling conclusion that, while TV is a wendedul advertising medium with tre. mending+ selling impact, it is demonstrably overpriced. The unmistakable preachment the surveys will make to the tele-casters is "Now, fellows, no more rate increases The me-dium is just about paying off, and if you boost the price any more we'll just have to cancel out. Also, boo!! !"

We'll bet every dime we have against an old box-top that that's what the surveys will "preve" Just as the Assnciatien of National Advertiser Studies "proved" that nighttime radio listening was "virtually eliminated" in fl' homes. And we

. ask the telecast., and particularly the network., to keep in mind several incidents of the past:

(I) At least part of redoes present dilemma stems front the fart that radin, and particularly the netwnrks, failed to raise rate), in the days when all other advertising media were raising rates. and such Increase, in radie were eminently justified.

12) The network rate cuts of last July accomplished prac-tically nothing in the way of increased or new business for any of the networks,

(3) More and noire studies now coming In light reveal that (a) TV is the greatest advertising medium of all time and

• (b) notwithstanding TV. radio is maintaining very healthy audiences even in nighttime hours.

Nobody can blame the national advertiser or his agency for trying to get the best deal possible from radio. TV nr any other medium. And nobody can blame that same bankroller for taking another whack at a medium tbroadeasting, and the same broadcasters u-ho control mast of telecasting) which he has already found to be soft touch Network brass, radio and television broadcasters in general, could do a lot worse than to resolve. in 1952, to stand up and demand to be paid what their product is worth.

The pin-point accuracy of casting, authenticity of English settings. unique high level of act-ing, and of production in all de-partments created a presentation which had many of the qualities cd the best of films and all of the merits of the best TV drama. Most outstanding was the per-

formance of Richardson as Eb-enezer Scrooge. Invited here for solely this assignment, the actor, whose interpretation of the part was softer and more rounded than the usual American delinea-tion of the miser, made the 30 minutes come winningly alive with the sights and sounds of a soul in torment on Christmas Eve. Not only in his big scenes, but in small moments too, did Richard-son perform minor acting miracles with the most subtle touches. "Christmas Carol," as most

people know, is the story of the reformation of Scrooge thru a nightmare. There he is permitted to see himself as other people see him, to see his cruelty and to see his untended weedy grave. These sights produce the intended result. The other thesps maintained

the pace set by Richardson. They included Arthur Treacher. Mel-ville Cooper, Margaret Phillips Norman Barr, Malcolm Keen. Gypsy Raine, and, as narrator. Alan Napier. The importation, also, of 8-year-old Robert Hay Smith to play Tiny Tim was as,.

Cricket on the Hearth (Radio). NBC. Saturday (22). 4-4:30 pen. EST. The spirit of Christmas

(23). 7.730 p.m. EST. This was perhaps Bob Hope's

Sev-eral decksful. in fact, as some excellent reaction shots showed middies hanging from the tans from port to starboard. These shots proved, in a way,

one of the most interesting as-pects of the show as the cam-eras swept across the bay to the San Diego skyline, to other ships anchored in the bay, and even caught errant seagulls making their runs over the ship. The show itself went over hugely with the service-men present, and their enthusi-asm transmitted it. If to the viewers. Hope probably is the world's top showman before enlisted men, and it certainly came thru on this stanza. The skits were attuned to the

surroundings and had a dis-tinctly nautical flavor, with Hope, in the top moment of the show, playing an ensign, be-ribboned with fruit salad, who was put in command of the selfsame U. S. S. Boxer. Con-stance Moore looked pretty and warbled nicely, and the Nicho-las Brothers did some fancy hoofing, abetted in one number by Hope himself. In all, it was a swift-paced and successful outing.

Either some genius at National Broadcasting Company has de-cided Dickens was a lousy writer or else the spirit of Christmas was very intense at the network this week. For the Dickens tale, "Cricket on the Hearth," as adapter for radio, bears no rela-tion to the story of the same name. but sounds like • rewrite of Dickens".Christmas Carol." The creators of this stanza must have known that "Cricket on the Hearth," as originally written, is not a Christmas story, and that it says nothing about Christmas Eve, Christmas trees or Christmas dinner.

In other words, NBC had the right author, but the wrong book. It is true that the NBC -Cricket on the Hearth- did use the names of two of the characters in the original story, as well as one cricket, but what took place after that was just not cricket. In order to make the story as close to "A Christmas Carol" as possible. Tackleton was made to sound like Scrooge. Caleb Plummer be-came a Bob Cratchit, and blind Mary (Mr. Dickens called her Bertha), took the place of Tiny Tim. And to make it even more coincidental, Tackleton hated Christmas. treated Plummer bad-ly and was changed into a sweet and merry soul via a nightmarish evening which persuaded him to mend his ways It is amazing how closely Tackleton's expres-sions of joy upon greeting Christ-mas mortung resembled thaw of Scrooge in the other Dickens story. Like most imitations. the NBC

Dickens pastiche was merely an artificial likeness, without the spirit of the original -Christma. Carol." Tackleton was much to. mean and cruel, Plummer to. subservient, and blind Mary t... much like Little Eva tri make tb. play live or to convey the mean mg of the famous story. Harry Elders did a fine job ,o

the narrator of the story, and Maurice Copeland and Butlor Manvill were good with the ma terial they had. Roberta Aldc,. was too saccharine as Mary, th. this was at least partially due I. the script. John Barclay and Don Gallagher were perfect in then roles as Noah and Christophe, Dogberry. tho these two charac-ters never appear in the Dickens fairy tale. The music and produc-tion of the show was first-rate It would be unfair to deny that a few of the scenes on the show were touching, especially the one in which Mary asks Plummer to figuratively lend her his eyes so that she can see the Christmas tree.

If NBC broadcasts this story again next year, it should be pre-ceded by an announcement that any resemblance to the chame-ten in the Dickens' "Cricket on the Hearth" is strictly coinciden-tal. At least they ought to use all the crickets!

TELEVISION—Reviewed Mon-day (14) 11-12 p.m. EST. Sustain-ing via National Broadcasting Company. Producer. Ernest Wall-ing. Director. Vance Halleck. Cast: Charles Laughton.

NBC came up wjth a real high-light of the holiday season by featuring Charles Laughton in an hour-long Christmas Eve e.g of readings—the sort qf thing with which he has been delighting au-diences around the country for years. This sample of Laughton's vocal pyrotechnics made an hour slip by like 15 minutes, and any arm-chair viewer could have tak-en twice as much and felt no pain.

The charm of Laughton's pro-jection is its utter informality. He comes before a blank curtain. stacks up a couple of small tables, arranges some battered books thereon, and proceeds to turn on charm to the Nth degree. As in his stage appearances in "Don Juan in Hell." he occasionally turns a tattered page for effect, but he knows by heart 99 per cent of what he is supposedly reading —and he reads it from the heart. It is a tour de force of simplicity raised to an art.

While his program was obvi-ously overall gaited to the holi-day season, it comprised a canny combination of humor, drama and pathos, with the actor in top form in all departments. In top slot was a delightful description of the farm Christmas party from Dick. en's "Pickwick Paperri." Inter-spersed with beautiful vocal dra-matisations of the Biblical story of the fiery furnace and the Na-tivity according to St. Luke, were

amusing bits of fable from Jame. Thurber and Aesop. And included was a superb segment of stirring Americana from Thomas Wolfe's "Of Time and the River." Obviously, Laughton needed

little or no production or direc-tion. He simply walked on and took over completely, as if he were in his own living room, be-fore his own friends. It is a safe bet that he made a host of new ones in other living rooms on Christmas Eve. If some network can tie him up to a contract to do this sort of solo on a regular basis, TV viewing and listening will take on a new luster. As a dra-matic elocutionist. Laughton is tops.

When the "Uncle Mistletoe" series was dropped recently by Marshall Field, moppets lost one of their most highly regarded TV shows, but with the advent of "King Calico," they have a more than adequate replacement. Many of those connected with

the new show were also affiliated with the -Mistletoe" airer, and the similarity in voices of the various characters in both series is marked. That the thinking is also the Salae all far as planning is concerned is obvious. The new puppet show features story-book characters which are easily under-stood by the kids, and the sus-tained interest from one stanza to the next in the story line mo

well handled. Technically, the show moves

along with the same ease as did its predecessor. "King Calico" is the center of attraction, while sev. eral other puppets, Reckless Rac-coon, Moppy and the Duke of Domino, all play important roles. Unlike the "Mistletoe" series which used cartoons to illustrate its various characters other than the lead, "King Calico" uses pup-pets thruout and has also had de. signed some good sets wherein the action takes place. Designed exclusively for the

younger listeners, show does not attempt to reach kids who have advanced into the blood and thun-der type presentation. Show is skedded for a Monday, Wednes-day, Friday run weekly, and was set by C dr C Productions. Chi. sago. Niirouin Wes.. r

EDITORIAL TO AGVA

Questions for Dunn That Henry Dunn it gulling the American Guild of Variety

Artists to become an agent for $15,0fie • year is no longer news. He started angling for such a job just before and after the Chicago Board meeting last October.

If there's asuapicjar. that he quit when things was', letting hot, he has no one to blame but himself. Dunn got his AGVA job under peculiar circumstances plus a promise of jobs for Board members who supported his candidacy. A look at AGVA's minutes will verify that.

In his 'wan song to the Board, Dunes biggest claim is his breaking of the benefit racket. He broke up Theater Authority. Benefits still go on, except that now Dunn signs waivers and arranges back-door deals.

Dunn has bragged how he and his Mini:tent Vic Connors, had organized and were organizing circuses and the outdoor field. If the Board could pm Dunn down to straight answers, and see thru Connors glib explanations, It would be stunned. Get 'ern to tell you the truth about Ringling, or Biller Brothers,

The Music Hall unionization drive was another of Dunn's WWI«. Let the kids in the cast tell it. Let Dunn show cor-respondence and wires, and ask him why he and Connors were disowned by the cant.

The insurance plan is the mal dilly. Dunn and Connors have persistently bunched together the policy and the plan so that, if anybody were against the plan, he was made to look like be was against the policy.

The accident insurance plan was. beaut. If The Billboard hadn't exposed it, there would've been a potential $1.000.000 a year to hit up with no questions asked. That's the way it was set up. That's one of the reasons why Dunn and Connors didn't get along with counsel Counsel asked questions. The board might ask Dunn how corne the plan was put into opera-tion without it. official sanction; how come a deal was made without the lawyer's approval; how come all the suits, investi-gations and threats of major disclosures that may break any day.

If there ever was a time when the Board should demand straight answers, this is the time: not when Dunn has left AGVA. but when he's still in them and responsible for his actions.

If there ever was a time when the rank and file should be invited to hear the Board's questions and Domes answers. this is the time. After eli. It ems the members, thru their $10 assessments and up to 100 per cent increase in dues, who put $.90,1100 u, AGVA's treasury for which Dunn is now taking the credit.

Whoever takes Dunn's place, whether it be Jack Irving or somebody else, we urge him to clean house once and for all. We urge him to co-operate with right thinking friends of AGVA to make AGVA the strong onion it has no long promised to be.

Decca '51 Disk

00,000 Net

NEW YORK, Dec. 29.—Veces Records fine, quarter will wind up almost the equal of the disk-ery s take for the seine period last year despite the fact that was-cry has gone thru a dry period in best-selling disk pace. It was estl. meted that the diskery's take would be about 2 cents pos' share below last year's 25 cents per share net earnings for the final quarter.

Based on these estimates, the Deere firm will wind up with earnings for the year in the vicin-ity of 78 cents per share on the 778,000 outstanding sharer of disk-my stock. The company took a big dip in earnings in its third quarter of the current year when the take dipped 19 cents per share from 1950's 2.5 tents to 6 cents for '51. The 1050 July.September earnings were Considered some-what abnormal since it was in that particular period that Decca introduced Its 45 disk line. Approximate net earnings for

1951 will wind up at about $600.000. The profits will be made after provision for the increased income taxes. The take rem.-rents about a 40 per cent dip from the 1950 earnings. In view of Dec.'s generally poor showing on the pop marts thrtl TO« el the year and considering the large in-crease In taxes, the 1951 take is considered by trade to be quite a remarkable achievement. 01±1k of the credit for the sizable take is attributed to the market weight of the diskery's catalog, a particu-larly strong entity dunne the Christmas season.

For complete catalogs of all his

firms (detain, Algonquin, Robert. etc.), Mellin collected $16,000 for the two years for complete rights he gave Dreyfus for the British Isles, Australia and Africa.

happy with his Dreyfus arrange-ment is Murray Massey. who, it is reported, has collected more money from Canadian rights on his hit "My Heart Cries for You" than he did from Chappell for the British Isles and other countries.

NEW YORK. Dec. 29.-By this lime, most year-end statements from top brass in the radio-televi-sion industry are on the record. In general, the industry «era steered clear of anything contro-versial. They pretty mueh ate.. that 1952 TV set production will be somewhat lower than the fig-ure reached in 1951. They seeni to agree on the fact that demand will exceed supply, the market will harden, and no prim decreases of major Import will occur. This week, however, there have

been some fairly important price changes. While this does put the lie to the prophesies dispensed by the Meer, sages, it points up the fact that each manufacturer will decide what price schedule is best and raise or lower it as per-Mitted by government regula-tion. Magnavox and Crosley both dropped prices on portions of the TN line. • Magnavox decided to get into a

more competitive price position by lowering prices from $25 to $40 on six different models. The corn. patty may . reduce different models if there m a general decline in prices during the Winter Furni-

ture next month. Creeley price, ••n Il different sets were cut front $20 to $60. That other set Patera may drop

is a distinct possibility despite materials shortages and other war economy factors. Tradesters point to increased income taxes, general peke rises and dealer-distributor inventories at factors which could cause prates to drop.

light was thrown this week on the Stasny Music-Mn. Harry Pease legal tangle over the songs 'Pretty Kitty Kelly" and "Why 13o They Always Say No?" (The Billboard, December 221. Accord-ing to Mrs. Stasny, the pubbery does not dispute payment of writer royalties, either during the original term or the renewal period. On "Pretty Kitty Kelly." Mrs.

Stasny claims that a .rheek for royalties was sent to the writer's widow, Mn, Pease, but that the latter refuted the check, and It • now held in escrow by Miller et Miller. the Stasny attorneys. On -Why Do They Always Sky No?" the music company claims that Pease sold his sham of the song to the firm outright, and therefore no royalties are due his widow. Under any circumstances, the pubbery asserts that the money advanced to Pease against royalty payments on his numbers more than makes up for any royalties due on these songs.

Weather Fails To Crab Action • Continued fru, page 1

Minns of public services and State police in evacuating stalled mo-torist.. With many bands and arts on

location for the holiday period. booking offices reported there had been little trouble as far as arts making their dates were con-cerned. Johnny Long and his band, scheduled to play in Elgin,

Christmas night, drove as far as Joliet where the road was closed Group trained back to Chi-cago, switched lines, then trained into Elgin for the date. While Minnie was most affected

by the storm; acts traveling Gins Wisconsin, Michigan and even Into Canada reported little diffi-culty. Ralph Karterie's orchestra jumped from Bay City, Mich., after • Christmas Eve date, to Gary, Ind., for the Christmas night dance, a metier of more than 300 miles, with time to spare. With temperatures rising, road

conditions were again reported hazardous for the New Year's Eve week-end, due mostly to 1100dIng as the heavy snow banks began melting. However, unless a freeze sets in, most offices said they anticipated no further trouble in making dates.

No Free Shows Sez Miami AGVA MIAMI. Dec. 29.—No more free

shows was the latest edict here by the American Guild of Variety Artists. The only uceptions will be three benefit. In the Greater Miami area which already have been cleared.

Jerry Baker, regional AGVA rep, said the shows cleared will be the Miami Beach Police and Fire-men's Benevolent Association event at the Minn Beach Hen-na Club January 20; the Mount Sinai Hospital Jubilee at the Bench Auditorium February 28 ancl the American Federation of Labor March of Dimes benefit. which probably will be held at Dinner Key Auditorium sometime in February. Baker said the performers were

forced to protect themselves against the flood of appeals for free shows here. He conceded that setae benefits are for worthy pur-poses., but said others were mostly for the benefit of promoters acting in the names of reputable argent-rations. Ile added that many act-ors are in as much need of help as the people for whom they are asked to work without pay. Raker revealed that the national

board of AGVA exacted conces-sions from the three groupe it will support. The pollee and firemen's association will turn over • "sub-stantial" part of Its take 10 the actors' fund; Mount Sinai Hospi-tal SAS •111118•O to provide free boa-pitanzation for any AGVA mem-ber who needs it, and the AFL will get free help for its show from all Its member unions. Sponsors of all the other bene-

fits will be required to pay the performers one-seventh of their weekly pay. Baker predicted that the new ruling will cut sharply into the number of benefits, altho some silences will go ahead and pay the performers. The police and firemen's benent, for instance, will have about 30 of the top acts in the country. If the association paid for them, Baker said, the cost .would be greater than the amount which could be collected at the sate. Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis

will face the /Oral AGVA board next month on the charge that they performed without a fee at a night club early in December. Jerry Baker said the comics did

three quarters of an hour at the Vagabonds Club the night before they performed at the National Broadcasting Company's annual convention at the Boca Raton Hotel and club earlier till. month. "They violated AGVA's rule of

no free perfOrMances." Baker said, "and they will be brought up before the local board. We're enforcing this rule to the letter this year, and it will apply to the biggest entertainers and to the Smallest. This is something that has to be curbed, and we're ruing to do IL"

Lambertville, N.

Schwab. In its last season, ap-proximately 70,000 persons wit-nessed 12 weeks of operettas and musical comedies. But, Terrell said, high overhead was the rea-son the circus failed to show a profit. Schwab's death lest June dealt

"In our first season" Terrell said, "we had an eight-man or-chestra. However, last year the local union insisted on 12 men in the pit. The four extra men alone cost 86.000 additional, aitho they definitely were not needed in this type of presentation." Paul Wolfe, president of the

MUM Federation of Musicians, took issue with Terrell's version of the story. Said Wolfe: "The Music Circus made money in Miami lut year. but Terrell took an over-all lam bemuse the Mi-ami show had to carry the flop in St. Petersburg." (There, Schwab and Terrell edged another production.) "When the circus opened here

During the drive an iron lung was on display at the rink. The Leominster Daily Enter-

DETROIT, Dee. 29. - Special events are holding business at a satisfactory level in Dearborn Rollerdrome, with an obvious les-son in showmanshm-just enough of each type of attraction to keep people interested but not enough to satiate them. Under the direc-tion of Owner-Manager George Brett Amateur Night has been staged the past five Saturdays. Contestants must be bona fide

skaters-doing their act, whether it is singing, playing an inst.-ment, dancing or other specialty, on Skates in the center of the rink. However, the contest itself is not for skill in skating. Entries are restricted to six an evening so that the contest will not run too long and tire spectators. Award of $5 is given the weekly winner, and these four then enter finals on the fifth Saturday and compete for a Savings Bond. The contest is then started over again. It has proved to be the most pop-ular event ever staged at the Rollerdrome.

which opened over Cha-latinas are estimated at around 40,800.000.

Heaviest budget is at the Olym-pia Circus, with an outlay of

more than $700,009 Full houses over the 'London run would bring in only $32•000, but the show

goes on the road for most uf the

year. Al Harringay Circus the

figure is around 3280,000, of

which Saint the Elephant Boy draws nearly 82,800 But impre-

sario Tom Arnold hopes to show

a clear profit of over $140,000. The Robinson Crone ice-show

at Wembley chalked up about

$338,000 before the curtain rose,

will touch $800,000' expenses be-fore the show ends its 12-week run. Top salary there g,OV6 to

Mater Daphne Walker, drawing

$2,380. Capacity take should be $em000. At the Earls Court

Claude Langdon's ice-show cost him $420.000 to put on. His high-

est salary goes to comedian Erie

"There's a lot of difference now

than there used to be," Hap opines

of the concession field. "You used to pay only a link privilege. Now

it's $2,000 You used to get a grid-

There's a lid of difference between that and $29 a day.

State Fair dates back to 1911,

when he met Charles (Dad) Paine,

then the annuars secretary-treas-

urer. He made trips dirtiest( the

country to see how other eventa operated. Paine invited Young to

pie the Golden State's festival.

And after playing Sacramento, the conceuionaire would then move

him equipment to Riverside. then

place in an arbor at the rear of

the old art building. The location

required no top. Tables were

placed beneath the trees and

counters set up. And business

waa brisk.

When the art structure was re-

placed with a new and modern

edifice, a row of permanent con-cession stands also was eon-

structed. Young was given his

choice of the spots and the color

he wanted it painted. He took the

center one done in a bright red.

This stand seats 68. He also has

The brewery furnished the buns

and the hot dogs. An I had to de was to sell them at the bar for a

nickel apiece. I wasn't out any-

were boiled in looked like a pan

Tivoli Tabs 3,000,000 To Set Mark COPENHAGEN D 29 —17Y-

rectors of Tivoli Amusement Park, this week approved the annual report for 1051, which showed the season's attendance and profits Were the highest of the postwar period. Total attendance during 1951 was 3,1911.365. an increase of 23,000—or .07 per cent—over that of 1946, whkh had established a record.

Attention was called to the fart that Tivoli', gate fee la still the same as it vsu in 1815. Had it been raised at the same ratio as the rise in cost of living the single admission charge would now be 33 rents instead of only eight cents and the teal of • season ticket would be $7.18 instead of its actual price of $2.18.

It was noted that attendance on Sundays had decreased but this was counter-balanced by upped gales on weekdays. Pertieularly noticeable was a marked upswing on Thursday, with an proportion-ate slump on Fridays—which ap-parently was due to the fact that majority of Copenhagen's work«, are now receiving their weeklY salaries on Thursday inateark« on Friday. • - During the past «mow «taut

2.000 were employed in Tivoli, of which number about 500 were em-ployed by the park. This figure might seem exaggerated but it must be borne in mind that Tivoli employs well over 100 musicians for its symphony ork, two large concern bands and 65-piece boys band, al well as a big year-round staff of maintenence men and gardeners. The other 1,500 per-sons employed are the personnel of the 21 restaurants in the park. many of which have bandit; and employees of ride operators and concessionaires. Tivoli's pay.roll for 1951 was $391,500. Account. for 1931 show a sur-

plus of $85.938.46. to which has been brought forward a balance of $47,293.78, which makes a total of 9113,233,24. Out of this sum $25,171.86 has been earmarked for the parka building fund: $18.125 placed is. securities fund, and 936.250 is to be paid out in dividends, which will be main-tained et the usual 10 per cent to holders of active stock.

Severe Chi Weather Cuts Game Shipments

CHIC AG 0, Dec. ' ) — The weather which local operatoraand distributors have been battling the peat two weeks also became a full-scale problem for amusement game manufacturing plants. Al-ready slowed down by a record snowfall since early December. a new Morro hit Chicago Monday and Tuesday (24-25) and virtually brought traffic to a standstill. On Wednesday (26) most of the

The haul-ing companies were making: a maximum effort to get their trucks thrti to the plants, but traffic tie-ups plus snowbound truck trailers cut normal sched-ules to trickle.

City Takes Different Stand, Rules No Licenses for Other Game Stops

PORTLAND, Ore. Dec. 29 — Confusion in the local amuse-ment game operating trade. caused by differences in rulings by the Oregon State Liquor Con-trol Comminsion and the Port-land Cite Cinunission, was some. what clarified this week. As the January 1 license dead-

line for typical coin machine lo-cations roiled around, it was ap-parent tavern licenses. which an directly under the jurisdiction of the State group) would be re-newed regardless of whether they used amusement games. ' It Mon was clear other types of locations such as drug. grocers and similar stores would not be granted license renewals unless they signed a pledge they would not allow games on their prem-ises. The muddied pinball situation

in Portland has been developing since May (The Billboard, June 2) when the City Commission ruled games woulda be outlawed effective July 10. On that day the city council passed an ordinance which appeared to put operators out of the games business. Now. ever, Stan Terry, an operator, teak the matter to court and won for other operators az well as himself a temporary order re-straining city officials from en-forcing the ordinance. Before the expiration of the writ, September 10. the OP...Legs took further

court action and had the effective date of the ordinance extended until early next year when three judges will sit en bank to render a decision.

Raverse Ruling In October (The Billboard, Oc-

UNSUNG MICHIGAN OPS GIVE

Juke Box Christmas Gifts to Army Center

DETROIT, Dee. 29.—A recent mass donation of juke boms to the Percy Jones Army Hoapital at Battle Creek, Mich., focused public attention on a much un-sung public service being per-formed by Michigan music op-enders. Local operators for the past sev-

eral months have individually been supplying both juke boxes and records to youth clubs. Now by their gifts to the Army hos-pital Me operators have marked up an expansion of their program to include wounded and sick vet-erans and soldiers. The youth club program was

started early in the year. with the operators working thru the Michi-gan Automatic Phonograph Owner.' Amociation. The first boxes and records went to • dozen or more clubs. The juke boxes Immediately be-

OPS COMPLAIN:

Rentals Are Hard Way to Make a Buck

NEW YORK, Dec re—Holiday Juke rentals are a headache. op-erators here report, and fewer are looking for this once profit-able bonus business. The fees for supplying automatic n, usic•I cheer to Chrietrus.New Year of-fice parties have come down a little from throe current e year ago, but meanwhile coats have risen and by the time the oper-ators subtracts all expenses from income there is little left. Average rental fee is about $25,

tho the range of charges varies from perhaps $18 to as much as

, $35. Thou who try and make last-minute arrangements, of course. pay top money. The main cost, operators agree,

is for delivery and pick-tip. Trucking there« are high and. even if the operator uses his own vehicles he must contend with the city's growing traffic prob-lem. It takes more time to de-liver a machine, and time is money to the operator who keep. his mooning properly.

Before the phonographs are sent out they must be checked and cleaned up and, too often, they are returned in damaged condition. -After a few drinks everyone thinks he's a mechanic and can't resist fiddling with the mechanism,- complains a heed-hit operator.

Estimates place the number of holiday rentals here this season at 200 to 300. There will probably be still less nest year.

were giving their new boxes a big play and calls soon went out for more recordings. Jeffrey stepped into the breach

and formed an unofficial commit-tee of one to keep the kids' bases supplied with records. He then went • step farther. Not content with getting old records, he con-centrated on collecting as many good up-to-date recorde as pos-sible. The original tendency had been

to donate records that had been in stock for three or four years But it soon was found that these could prove popular only lo a point with the youngsters. -•. •

Ileste•Dise Numbers Jeffrey realized that it was only

thru giving the rotlingsters the best that the full value rd the operators' gifts would be brought OUI. The result has been • contain.

ing effort by Jeff.ey to celled used records chiefly of current numbers, from Michigan operators with both, large, and small firm. co-operating in the project. The ides for the mus Christ-

mas gift of boxes to the Army renter, one of the largest in the country for treating wounded Korean war veterans, was that of Irving B. Ackerman, legal coun-sel for the Michigan Association. Ackerman, while at another

Battle Creek hospital recently for recuperation, learned that the Percy Jones Hospital had only one machine. He quickly con-tacted, Maj. Thomas O. Weir. the Army hospital's recreational and welfare officer, and found that the gift of additional machines would be welcomed. The outcome was the presenta-

tion of the boxes the past Week-end to the hospital thru its com-manding officer. Brig. Gen. Mar-tin E. Griffin, and thin» Major Weir. The gift included individual

donation. of boxes by Morris Goldman, president of the Michi-gan association; Carl Anent, of the Angott Distributing Company; Frank Alluvot, of Frank's Music Company; Harvey Gilbert, of the Gilbert Music Company: Mint. Rice, of the Rice Music Company, and Louis Nerneah, of Music Sys-tems, Inc. Records to stock the gifts were

contributed by members of, the Michigan association and by Jo-seph Brilliant, of the Brilliant Music Company. Servicing of the machines are

handled by the same donors.

Set Up Screening Body to Handle Free Juke Offer

MIAMI. Dec. 29.—Amusement machine operators here moved Into high gear this week on their program to give music machinn to needy youth groups and other worthy organizations. The new momentum w •

launched with the co-operation of Jack Bell, who thru his column in The Miami Herald praised the efforts of the group and agreed to serve on the screening committee set up to approve requests for equipmeht and also to seek out underprivileged organizations. The program was begun last

month (The Billboard; Novem-ber 24) when Willie Blatt, ALMA president, donated a rnusie ma-chine to the Fluter-Grenada Jejilsh Community Center. At the same time every member agreed to rebuild a used juke, rem ve the coin chute and after its placement provide regular servicing without rect. One of the most active local

trade associations formed in 1961, AMOA was organized late last summer (The Billboard, Septem-ber 15) when 40 roinmen repre7 senting approximately 90 per cent of the game and music equipment in Greater Miami held an in-formal meeting. Duke Luker was elected, temporary president with the understanding that be would be succeeded when the group held a special election meeting in No. romber. Others voted into office at the second meet in addition to President Blatt were Morris Har-der. vim-president, and Keith Nel-son, secrotary-treasurer.

was displayed to • group of Chi-cago businessmen and some piton, °graph operators (The Billboard, November 10). Last week, the mechanism again was shown — this time at the Conrad Hilton Hotel.

Invitations to the Hilton show-ing were issued by Windy City Music operator, Dan Pelage. Purpose of the showing, the in-vitations declared, was to sound out operator reaction to the mech-anism. It was reported that two of the font* major lithe box man-ufacturers were on hand to look the mechanism over. Beyond acknowledging that it

Coinmen You Know Chicago Aitho many of the best games of

the year were on the production line last week, they had to share the trade's interest with the weather in this area. Snow con-tinued to fall in unprecedented quantities intermittently. paced with near-zero temperatures. Thus all levels of the trade, oper-ators, distributors and manufac-turers. were hard pressed. Some of the more foresighted, however, such as Dave and Alvin Gottlieb. D. Gottlieb gi Company, and Sam Gambols, Chicago Coin Machine Company, took time out for their annual vacations in Florida.

OPERATORS APPLAUD CONTINUANCE OF WURLITZER MODELS 1400 and 1450 IN LINE

Wurlitzer's announcement that the Models 1400 and 1450

would be continued in the line, regardless of any future additions to it,

has met with enthusiastic response by operators everywhere.

Here's why...in

"Glad I can still buy 24-record, 48-selection, all-speed Wurlitzers. They're the right size for any location and the right style to stimulate play."

"Your keeping the Models 1400 and 1450 in your line means I can keep on using my 78 rpm record library—or —switch to 45 rpm if I want to. It's a good deal all around."

their own words

"The high speed cycling and single button selection on your Model 1400 have been money-makers for me. Delighted you are keeping it in the line."

'Thanks a million for keeping those 1400s and 1450s in your line. For my money they're the finest phonographs

available because they've made real money for me."

Warning Because of the critical material shortage the demand for Models 1400 and 1450 will far exceed the supply. It would be farsighted on your part to

Conn. Group In '51 Finale HARTFORD, Conn.. Dec. 29 -

Connecticut State Coin Associa-tion unanimously approved the membership application of Elliot Rosen, Hartford operator, at it, final meeting of the year in the Bond Hotel here. Abe Fish, CSCA president, told

the group that much progress had been made in Connecticut trade circles during 1951 but cautioned them to exert an even greater effort in the New Year. He stressed the continued application of sound business methods espe-cially on the publlc relations level as the best way to meet the challenge of 1952.

This return of five-ball free-play to Nebraska is not possible

at this time or until tile Injunction Is granted.

Attorney General Beck Monday (14) announced he would appeal the decision to the Nebraska Su-preme Court. Any final decision on the legality of free-play five-bilk in the State mmt•rest with that body.

Different Free Plays

Elaedares suit wee unique in this respect: It marked the first tune a plaintiff in a coin machine action .et out to distinguish be-tween various types of free-play games.

Haedaro's petition pointed out that the pin game in question wu 'so constructed and designed that the successful player must use up his right to continuing plays; that ' said right cannot be canceled out by any device but must be ex-hausted in play; that said right cannot be exchanged for money, merchandise or property or for tokens permitting play at other times, said pin game being with-nut a cancellation device or 'knock-off button' to cancel out or 'knock-off any accumulated play-ing rivileges"

Na Metering Device

"Moreover," the petition con-tinued. 'laid pin game is not equipped with a metering device, secret or otherwise, which records the times or exteut to which a player does not elm( out such right of continued play. it being recce Mud that the said 'knock-off but-gon and meter serve substantially no purpose other than to adapt the machine 14611 which they art in stalled to possible gambling pur-

in another section. the petition sought to further define the dif-ference between games by stating that the pin game In question “is materially different from and is not to be; confused with so-ca/led nne.ball games or with other coin• operated machines which permit the player to deposit tome Ulan one /Mimi with each play and thereby Ineresse the seeming ra -tio, or with machines OnUtInTett With 'knock-off buttons and can eel,' game nu/15•Ts...
