One of ours has. "Brown Arms In Houston" by ORPHEUS,

N one of our eight -week-old records, has all the symptoms of the depression -rejection syndrome. Sounds strange, doesn't it? But records have feelings, too. Our Sales Department advises that "Brown Arms" sold 83,000 copies, not bad for an eight -week-old, but still the blues. So we ,N decided to investigate. We learned that despite the appearance of the record on all ID the trade paper "Top 100" Charts, many pivotal stations have not yet gone on the record; therefore, the rejection syndrome. We further learned that some key stations have gone off the record MAN: prematurely -that explains the depression. Obviously, MGM doesn't have the time to send the record for psychotherapy. So for the mental health of "Brown Arms In Houston" and NG are calling upon BROADCASTERS, DISTRIBU- AS1' ourselves, we TORS and RETAILERS to join together and help this record grow up strong and healthy.

Summerhill's Larry Hickman did six months active duty and went into the Reserves. Then the Army comes up with something called Involuntary Induction. And barn! Bye, bye Larry. Now Summerhill doesn't have a rhythm guitarist. But, they do have a fine new album, and the new single "Soft Voice." If you like it, the Army might put Larry in Special Services ... maybe give him time off to record again ... make him a major ...who knows? Remember, Larry Hickman could be your kid.

HEE HAW. TH RO

Most of you probably know that our artist Roy Clark is có -hosting the new NA CBS -TV show "Hee Haw" which debuted last night (Sunday). It should be HAI quite a show, due, in part, to our own Mr. Clark. Roy is one of those rare enter- tainment personalities. He can't be pigeon -holed; he communicates with Al GAL segments of the record -buying public.

Case in point: "Yesterday, When I Was Young" (Dot 17246). This record is a 10A nationally charted hit on all charts ... Top 40, Easy Listening, and Country. It's selling that way, too. DON Now here's his latest album, titled (coincidentally, right?) "Yesterday, When HAN I Was Young." It's numbered Dot DLP 25953. It's by Roy Clark. It was produced by Joe Allison. It's beautiful. And it's going to do just what the single did. Hit. THIS
