The crazily tilted paper hats. The almost constant spray of confetti. The near ear shattering sound of toy horns. The drumming of little wooden hammers on tables. The rustle of silken skirts. The hollow sound of popping champagne corks. The uncertain reeling of the too frequent imbiber. The melodious background of a band. The spilling of food and drink and tobacco ash on clothes.

Overturned tables. Sweating waiters. Harried captains. Crowds. Crowds. Crowds.

And then ... a sudden quiet ... a shout . . . IT’S THE New Year I

Kisses. Hugs. Screams. Shouts. Sorrow. Sulleness. Joy. Pouting. Profanity. Love. Jealousy. Hate. Murder.

All the emotions of humankind let loose with a prayer to tomorrow . . . the New Year.

That it may . . . twist and turn . . . capture and loose ... destroy and build . . .

convey and hide . . . live and die . . . the New Year.

In quiet homes.

In sanctity . . . the toll of bells . . . the prayers.

The hush that reigns over sparkling, frozen, snow covered, blue-white hills and valleys, and quiet country roads. “

The hope that shines forth in stars that seem to be within grasp;;;—tomorrow will

be better, must be better—for tomorrow is the New Year. ’

. . . Synchronized with mankind’s emotions . . attuned to the spirit . gauged to try

souls . . . the New Year.

Another great gimmick in the record promotion dept, past week, though not quite as drinkable as champagne cocktails, was the stunt pulled by ingenious Jerry Johnson for the Tony Martin-Fran Warren coupling of “Remember,” a fine piece of music with or without any tricks . . . This one led off with the disc-jockeys’ wives, for a change, the gals receiving a long stemmed white rose in a box with the card reading “Remember” and signed Tony . . . Following day, the boys received a heavily scented femme hankie with the card “Remem- ber” and signed Fran ... At last report, nobody had divorced anybody and everybody had a lot of good clean fun . . . Something like our pre-war movie columning days when one of the studios had a sultry voiced gal call up and arrange a date with Fifi at such and such a corner . . . Upon getting there, all we got for our pains was a preview of a moom picture. Ran into disc jockey Joe Adams, whose following is really terrific in the blues and hot field, at Aladdin Records, where Eddie Mesner was listening over to some of the discs and tape he’d cut of several new artists while on that long our with Amos Milburn, who was due to do a session that after- noon . . . One worth holding an open ear for is a tune called “Mojave Land,” a sort of “” and “Ghost Riders” all in one and already cut in very interesting style by Tempo, whose Irving Fogel gave us a preview hearing on it the other day . . . Russ Morgan recovering from minor surgery in fine fashion, contact man Bill Savitt tells us, but a pretty sick fellow is Geoi-ge

Hill, in charge of Russ’ transcription project . . . Lee Palmer, a very straight talking guy, gives us a lead on Madeleine Russell, a new artist with the label, as sounding like a winner on “Copper Canyon,” a ditty written by Evans and

Livingston of “Buttons and Bows” fame . . . Caught Artie Wayne’s “Black Lace” on Superb label over the airwaves and why a major doesn’t latch on to this guy for keeps beats us.

Mr. Bill Gersh . ! Publisher of THE CASH BOX

Suite 5813, Empire State Bldg. , 5th Avenue and West 34th Street, N. Y. C.

Dear Bill

Several weeks ago I returned from a trip on the road on behalf of one of my clients, that took me as far as Omaha, Nebraska. As usual, all my trips bring me in contact with people in all phases of the record industry, such as Juke Box Operators, Dee- Jays, Distribu- tors, and Stores.

I covered on my last trip such towns, cities, etc., such as Des ,

Moines, Omaha, Lincoln (Nebraska) , Madison and Milwaukee (Wis- MORGAN consin), Chicago, Evansville (Ind.), Detroit, Cleveland, Akron, Youngstown, Canton, Buffalo, Rochester, Syracuse, Albany, West- chester County in New York, , Newark (N. J.), Trenton (N. J.), Philadelphia, Chester (Pa.), Wilmington (Delaware) Bridgeport (Conn.), Hartford (Conn.), New Haven (Conn.) and other WHERE spots on the Eastern Seaboard. You would be very happy to know of the major part THE CASH BOX, has become with the industry as a medium as a help in picking the right ARE records for each division of the industry's clientele. You see THE CASH BOX on the desks of the owners of Juke Boxes, in with the MUST of the Service-Men's list, (LADS WHO ARE THE UNSUNG HEROES) Record Distributers copies show well thumbed copies, and YOU the leading Dee Jays, use it as their guide, as to what the country is listening to via the Juke Box. The ''program-builders'', (Record Librarians) consider it as one of their major ' 'Bibles' ', when making up their programs for record shows. The sales-people in the stores BLUE quote CASH BOX, when selling records. They all tell him the reason they like and use THE CASH BOX, as one of their chief aids, is that it is so complete, so concise, easy to understand, and fair.

EYES?” I thought you might want to know what the rest of the country (part that I visited) thought of your efforts, and what they think of THE CASH BOX. DECCA 24819

EASTERN FLASHES

Altho the holiday spirit was in evidence along coinrow this week, whole- salers were so busy selling merchandise, they had little time to catch up with the actual celebrating until late Friday. Usually during the week prior to these holidays, the street is low in business and high in festivities. It’s been a long time since we can recall activity such as this taking place at this time of the year. There is no question as to the reason. The shuffle bowler type games have stirred up all the excitement. Operators are clammering for games to take advantage of the holidays. And we are most happy to report that it ap- pears as if every manufacturer has a hit going. The coin trade in this area couldn’t have asked for a better Christmas present. Along the same optimistic lines, the sale of music, both new and used, continues at a good steady gait.

* *

Barney (Shugy) Sugarman, Runyon Sales Company, returns from the distributor meet at AMI’s factory in Grand Rapids, Mich., all smiles. All Shugy would say was “great—great.” Meanwhile his office hard put to keep its customers supplied with Bally’s “Shuffie-Bowler.” The demand is so great, and there just isn’t enough games to go around. “The factory keeps sending them in,” states Morris Rood, “but we could use a great many more.” Runyon is also displaying Genco’s entry into the shuffle bowler field “Bowling League,” which has also met with the approval of the trade. , . . Harry Koeppel, Koeppel Distributing Co., returns from the road with a load of late music machines. They don’t stay around long—just long enough for a complete check-up, clean-up, and then out to some customer. . . . Dave Lowy, Dave Lowy & Com- pany, chipper as a lark. Operator acceptance of Keeney’s “Pin Boy” is getting more pronounced every day, as word of mouth reports get around the trade.

. . . Ed Wurgler, general sales manager of Rudolph Wurlitzer, announced that the popular Bob Bear has been appointed field sales representative for the firm.

Bob has been with the factory in various capacities since 1939. . . . Dave Stern, Seacoast Distributors, Elizabeth, N. J., gets a rousing reception for Rock'-Ola’s “Shuffle-Lane” from New York and New Jersey jobbers and operators. “Now my problem,” states Dave, “is to get the factory to ship them to me in suffi- ciently large quantities to satisfy all my good friends.”

Joe is doing quite a job for Atlantic-Seaboard in the Jersey territory. . . . Mike Munves tells us he’d like to take a winter vacation in Miami, but has to stay around to supervise the terrific moving job now under- way to his new building on Tenth Avenue. However, Mike doing considerable planning, and expects to spring quite a surprise in the very near future. . . . yO(/ CkH'l LOSE!! Meyer Parkoff, Seaboard, attracting crowds of operators to view Williams’ “Twin Shuffle,” the two player shuffle bowling type game. “They’re not only viewers,” states Meyer, “they’re placing orders in quantities.
