I DON'T KNOW Buddy Morrow (RCA Victor)

The Ernie Rudy band, the boys were the largest part of the Sammy Kaye organization until they went out on their own last July, has an interesting gimmick. This we learn from Dave Robinson (WELI-New Haven, Conn.). Rudy sends out a novel record to disk jockies called the “Ernie Rudy Story” which introduces the band. First release on the Coral label is “Say It With Your Heart” and “You Can Fly! You Can Fly!” A note from Robinson says

“Enjoy your magazine and use it often as a programming aid.” . . . Jack Downey (WONS-Hartford, Conn.) just finished tallying the results of his fourth annual Male Vocalist Poll, and here are the winners: Top Man—Eddie Fisher; 2nd—Johnnie Ray; 3rd—Frankie Laine; 4th—Tony Bennett; and

5th—A1 Martino. . . . Mike Joseph, formerly program director at WTNS-

Coshocton, 0. has taken a similar position at WJEF-Grand Rapids, Mich. . . . Ted Brown (WMGM-New York) did a hilarious bit on the Essex obit-type ad on the New Don Howard release “Rain Rain” and “Listen To My Song.”

^ ^ 5}: 5}: Harry Burge (WQAM-Miami, Fla.) who has two shows running, “Juke Box Serenade” and “The Burge Cage,” compiles a list of top ten tunes by polling the local AMOA and other juke box operators daily. Burge plays their choices as against The Cash Box list, and

as a bonus plays The Cash Box picks. . . . Alan Dary ( WORL-Boston, Mass.) has Boston’s only pop show on Sunday afternoon. The show runs three hours,

from 1 until 4 p.m. . . . Peggy Marshall and Tommy Eldridge, “The Holidays,” spent last week touring the New England states visiting with the available deejays. The duo also stopped over at Philadelphia, Bal- timore, and Washington. Reaction was highly favorable and The Holidays feel they have- something big

in their latest “Apron . Strings.” Peggy and Tommy drove up in a blizzard and came back in a terrific JACK DOWNEY i-ainstorm, but the results justified the inconveniences

(WONS—Hartford, Conn.) they suffered. . . . Leroy Drake (WBNL-Boonville, Ind.) getting a tremendous response in the Tri- State area on his Kiddy Show which is aired just before the kids push off for school.

. . . National publicity came to Donn Tibbetts (WFEA-CBS-Manchester, N. H.) in the February issue of Radio-TV Mirror Magazine. The national publication saluted Donn with a feature full page complete with picture. . . . Bob Clayton (WHDH-Boston, Mass.) was in New York to attend the Jimmy Young (London Records) dinner before Jimmy returned to England. ^ ^ ^ Hal Murray has moved his disk show, “The Murray-Go-Round” from WINZ-

Miami, Fla., to WHAK-Akron, O. . . . Bob “Coffeehead” Larsen (WEMP-Mil- waukee. Wise.) recently made a two day appearance at Schwartzburg Chev- rolet for the introduction of the new 1953 auto. Over 22,000 people went through the showroom in less than 10 hours to see “Coffeehead”—^and incidentally, the new Chevrolet. . . . Mike Cassone, prexy of Rialto Records, has just returned from a New England tour of disk jockies and distributors. Mike was promoting his new discovery, Patti Ames, and her new Rialto release “Heartbreak Train” backed with “What Good Am I Without You.” On January 26 Patti appeared on the March Of Dimes Marathon on WCOP-Boston which ran for 100 consecutive hours. Every star within reach of the station did his bit. . . . Beginning Monday, February 2, Radio Station WWDC-Washington, D.C. will add five new jockeys to its staff. The new aircasters are: Felix Grant, Ed Stud- ney, Paul Hallett, Fred Fiske and Ray Morgan. . . . Bob & Jim (WFBC-Green- ville, S.C.) write “Thanks for running our ‘Top Tunes’ list. It helps more than you, know.” . . . Phil Brito, topflight vocalist and former movie star, is now doing a six day jockey show on WKAT-Miami Beach, Fla., and is arranging with The Cash Box for a tie-in with his show in the nature of lists, nicks, and general information. Diskeries take note—send your releases to Phil at 435 N. W. 123rd St., Miami, Fla.

Lovely Songs and — Lovelies

LOS ANGELES, CAL.—The rewards of a successful songwriter are endless. Jimmy McHugh, who has written many of our great standard songs, is at the present time on tour with the lovely creatures pictured around a Capitol album of some of his tupes. Each of these young ladies sing their share of Jimmy McHugh songs—and quite well too. McHugh accompanies on the piano. Care to write a song?

Wills Signs For Ballroom Stint

Harmony Park Ballroom in Ana- heim, Calif. The western swing band also does a live radio show daily 12:30 to 1pm. from KXLA, The Western Station, in Pasadena. For 23 years Bob Wills has been making personal appearances, doing radio shows, motion pictures and making phonograph records for his fans which are estimated in the millions. His tours are set by MCA which has placed him in thousands of locations throughout the United States. For many years Bob Wills and his Texas Playboys recorded for Columbia Rec- ords, but in recent years he has recorded for MGM Records. Bob Wills is pictured on his per- forming horse “Punkin.” The horse is of noble Arabian ancestry although a casual observer -would say he is a Palomino. “Punkin” was born and bred in New Mexico, and his brother sold for $125,000, but this one is not Bob Wills and his Texas Playboys are now appearing each Wednesday, for sale at any price, says the fid- Friday and Saturday night at the big dling leader.

Nashville jockeys seem to be forming a precedent in not playing the maze of tribute records being released following Hank Williams’ death. Hugh Cherry—WMAK, Roy Smith—WSIX, Eddie Hill—WSM, Noel Bali and Chuck Powers—WMAK have all banned the tribute disks after a poll of listeners. All jockeys expressed the opinion that listeners would rather hear Hank’s own records. Reports from other sections also follow this pattern. Last Saturday, Jan. 24, marked the fourth anniversary of Captain Stubby & The Buccaneers schedule at Chicago’s WLS.

The three new features are: 1) A sign on top of the “Space Gun” cabinet which reads: “Shoot The Space Invader”; 2) The top step has a new device which, when a small child steps on it, makes the scoring possibilities so much easier for the child. When the top step is not depressed, the game Auto-Photo automatically returns to former scoring; and 3) Casters have been incor- porated into the cabinet, making it easy to move about as well as take in STUDIO and out of the location. “These are the features,” Mencuri explained, “which were requested by It's in the Money— 700% Gross our distributors all over the nation.
