Since, as the lyrics to the song “John. John. John” proclaim. “Every Tom, Dick and Harry's named John,” composer Collins Driggs shows Guy Lombardo (right). Carmen Lombardo (center) and Liebert Lom- bardo (left) that he has renamed each of the babies “John.” The happy look on Guy’s face is due to the fact that his Decca recording of “John, John. John” looks like the first novelty hit of the new year. Tune is also being published by the Lombardo firm. Carmen Music.

This week saw a rash of “Hank Williams” memorial shows throughout the IDMrtYEWSBS nation. His death is a tremendous loss to the music business but the songs he leaves behind will keep his memory alive for many many years to come. Hank had his finger on the pulse of the listener. He had an uncanny feel for what the public would “buy.” Not only with his writings, but he could spot a comer like a Geiger counter tracing uranium, as is testified to by the many songs kicked off to national prominence with an initial folk reading. . . .

Some of the music ops claim that they aren’t even getting 50 percent of The Cuban cleffer is currently riding the crest of the Havana Hit Parade their orders filled. Others claim to be obtaining as high as 75 percent of their with two smashes, “Chinita Chinito” and “Porque No Te Brillan Los Ojos.” orders filled. Both will be launched in the U.

The ops claim that the record distribs are ‘holding back.’ That they just won’t take a chance on ordering in any real quantity and that, because of this extreme caution, the operators here are suffering.

The ops say that when they want records the distributors have to first order these from their factories and the operators then have to wait for arrival.

“Furthermore,” one large operator states, “by the time the records arrive, the tune is, many times, dead as a door nail. Then we can’t even use the disks.”

The distributors argue against this. They state that they are ordering heavier than ever before. That they have tried their darndest to satisfy every single operator. That they give the juke box ops preference above all other buyers.

They also claim that they try very hard to get the operators to anticipate their needs. Instead, they say, operators will phone in an order and want delivery that very day.

Furthermore, they report, instead of just about 25 percent of the order being for 45’s, it will now be about 45 percent for 45’s. And the operator will burn if he doesn’t get his complete order that very same day, they claim. Some ops claim one record distrib, and some claim another, as “the worst of them all.” Yet the distribs claim that they have sold the music ops more records There’s A Pot of Good Listening in than ever before.

The trouble is, the record distribs here claim, they have no Way in which to gauge what they should order. Though the ops claim that they should I'M SKIPPING ROPE order 25 percent in 45’s and 75 percent in 78’s on new releases, the distribs state that, in many cases, this percentage comparison goes awry.

The holiday making, partying, celebrating now over, coinmen getting real serious, concentrating on two highly important matters—business and pleasure. With all the wonderful amusement machines and phonographs now available to operators, wholesalers are girding their loins to sell, sell, sell. Some decided that their first consideration should be to devote all their energies to a winter vacation. So—we have increased selling action, and at the same time we have BOWLER our good friends making*****reservations for cruises and trips to Miami Beach. While we don’t know the vacation plans of all operators and wholesalers hereabouts, here is an incomplete rundown on who will soon be lolling in his wife, Mollie, leave tropical sunshine. . . .

Max Munves, brother of Mike left Thursday (Jan. 8) for his annual hiatus to Miami Beach. Max will probably be away for months. (No matter how hard we try, we can’t get Mike of Broadway’s to take a short few weeks away.) . . . Max Schaeffer, owner foremost arcades, leaves next week with his wife for Miami Beach—probably away for a month. Schaeffer is probably the daddy of all arcade men, having started a good many years ago with the introduction of the film “nickleodeons” with such well known men as Lasky and Goldfish (Goldwyn). They continued in the film business, and Schaeffer with Shork (now deceased) remained in the arcade business. ... If he can get away, Joe Young, Young Distributors, will try to run down to the Florida Keys for a week’s fishing. . . . Dave Stern. Seacoast Distributors, Elizabeth, N. J., is also due to get the feeling of “sand his wife, leaving in his shoes” any minute now. . . . Charley Aronson and in a week or so for Miami Beach. Aronson and Bill Alberg, owners of Brook- lyn Amusement Machine Co., sold their music route this past week, and now are as free as the wind. Alberg who is ill, may stay in retirement, but Aronson plans is too young and peppy to remain out of action too long.

Having cleared away the egg nog, the holly and the usual assortment of 20 YEAR Xmas ties, we’re supposed to gently take up our crystal ball and do a mite of prognostication to see what ’53 has in store. Being an old star gazer from way back, we’re more than aptly armed for this tedious task—but aware as we are that so many coin men have already had their future laid out for them via radio, TV and the daily newspapers, we’ll make no predictions at all, buj l-ather start this New Year off by wishing all our friends in the coin machine industry a calendar chock full of prosperity in all their endeavors. We wall venture to say however, that ’53 will see additional changes in the normal appearance of the coin machine business, such as those made by the wide CLUB acceptance, of kiddie rides. Just what form or shape these changes might be we couldn’t say, but we are confident that they will prove to be a boon to all coin men everywhere. ***** CLIX BIG WITH Now that the clamor and partying has subsided somewhat, most of the boys in the coin biz out thisaway are back to the task at hand—that of promot- ing, pushing- and selling some of the greatest equipment to come their way
