From Nashville has come a record labeled “Down Yonder” which has made its way from one end of the nation to the other. Written a couple of decades ago by Wolfe Gilbert who is pictured above with Del Wood, the girl who recorded the tune for Tennessee Records, “Down Yonder” has become a hit all over again. Miss Wood was formerly a sales girl in a Nashville music store and is now one of the hottest artists on records. Her latest, “Ragtime Melody”, looks like a follow up to her first hit.

EASTERN FLASHES

The results of the 6th Annual Poll of Music Machine Operators came to a close this week, and results are published in this issue. The Cash Box poll, con- ducted every year at this time, is of untold importance to all in the music machine business (not to say how important it is to the recording companies, artists and music publishers) as it brings these two fields together in a closer bond. The music industry needs the juke box operator—and the juke box operator needs the music industry. Just how important the juke box operator is to the music industry is seen by the fact that this industry, and this industry almost 100%, was responsible for the current popularity of Tony Bennett, one of its big money making artists. The juke box industry, as a result of The Cash Box poll, will be on the receiving end of loads of publicity over radio, television, and thru the news columns of daily papers thruout the entire country. This is just one of the many services of The Cash Box to the coin machine industry. * * * * * Here’s something the juke box operators and their organization should have its eye on. The City of New York is seeking authority to re-impose its 3 per cent municipal sales tax next year—and at the same time will consider a number of other new nonproperty taxes, including a levy on juke boxes. Under exist- ing state law, the city already has the power to set a fee for the use of “me-

chanical music makers.” . . . Mike Munves, “The Arcade King”, spent the week in Chicago at the Parkmens’ Convention, and word we have is that his booth

was the most popular on floor. . . . Dave Lowy of Supremium used a portion of

Mike’s booth to display premiums and prizes. . . . Bill Rabkin and Herb Klein,

International Mutoscope Corp., also had a booth. . . . Ben Smith’s (the advertising agency man) son, who is a freshman at Princeton University, spent the Thanksgiving Day holiday at home. The youngster, as an extra-curricular activity, is conducting a disk jockey program over the college radio—playing long- hair music. . . . Barney (Shugy) Sugerman, Runyon Sales Company, runs by us as we dz-op in for a visit—heading for an appointment in New Jersey. “Good

Jack and his missus, Sadie, leave town on December 15, heading for Hot Spi’ings. On the way they will drop in to visit AMI distributors thi-uout the South. Plans call for a stop-over at Texas City, Texas, from Christmas to New Year’s, where they will see their daughter-, son-in-law, and grandchild. Exhibit Big Bronco, as well as Exhibit Pony Express, have opened a new and greater * * * * path to profits for operators everywhere in the nation.

Joe Hirsch, business manager of the games association, rushes to get copy off to the presses this week for the association’s Souvenir Journal. “The book is twice the size of last year” says Joe.

In short, what Ray wants, is one of those miniature pinball games, to give as the “grand award” to the fraternity that wins the contest. (Know anyone who makes the miniature pinball games? They’re are so many on so many ops’ desks, someone should know who makes them). Anyway, what’s most interesting is the fact that Oklahoma’s U. standouts find time to enjoy themselves on pinball and have now put pinball in the classification of a scholastic

competitive sport. .
