The Cash Box, Music Page 11 July 30, 1949

NEW YORK ; All eyes were on the NAMM (National Association of Music Merchants) Trade Show and Convention as The Cash Box went to press this past week. Record manufacturers, distributors, dealers and music operators pointed to the show as the possible start of a “new era” in the disk business. There seemed to be no doubt in any individual’s mind that there were many problems confronting the entire music industry that Would have to come into discussion at the show. Of foremost importance was the question of arriving at some definite conclusion with regard to the three-speed system now in operation in the record business. While music operators themselves have not been effected by the use of 45 and 33 1/3 rpm’s, many ops were anxious to know of the record companies plans insofar as the con- tinuance of 78 rpm shellac records were concerned. Of great importance to the independent record manufac- turer is the well known, and oft-discussed problem con- cerning the utter disregard by many record distributors of non-payment of bills. This situation goes much fur- ther, and has often resulted in what one record company JOHNNY DESMOND exec stated was “nothing less than larceny.” At any rate it will certainly be wonderful to meet and visit with our many friends. See you at the show

CHICAGO CHATTER

Plenty of excitement around the windy city this past week with Chicago playing host to the Shriners and President Truman. Thruout local coin circles the guys and gals were still very much vacation minded, many looking forward to their two weeks while others were telling us about the wonderful time they had. However, summer and vacation time will he coming to an end soon, and coinmen here are eagerly awaiting the new fall season and what it brings forth. From the many, many encouraging reports we’ve received and from the very optimistic outlook the boys have, looks like the coinbiz is in for a boomin’, busy season.

0. D. Jennings & Co. a bee hive of activity with everyone hard at work getting last minute details attended to before the first of August when the plant will close for a two week vacation. Tho Jennings will keep a skeleton crew on hand, they are urging all their customers to get their orders in before the two week period, as during that time they will only be able to order from stock . . . We hear from Ed Vojack that Phil Burgeson, Jennings’ Iowa dis- tributor, has fully recovered from his operation and was a recent visitor to the factory, Shriners cap and all . . .

The factory returned full to force July 25th . . . Add Jerry Haley of Buckley Mfg. Co. to the list of coinmen now vacationing. Jerry is expected back on the job around the first of August.

the dates to be announced . . . Frank Mencuri and Clare G. Meyer of Exhibit Supply continue their road trips, Frank contacting arcades and traveling shows, while Clare sells Exhibit’s new card machines—and does OK at it.

Over at Bally, production and shipping of the sensational l^ball “Champion” GREATEST BARGAIN IN continues without a let-up, regardless of the weather. Georgie Jenkins informs

that the firm is also enjoying a continuous run on its console “Spot Bell” . . . We hear from Mac Churvis, well known adman, that his son.

Aunouncement To Our Operator Friends

Southern Automatic Music Company is relinquishing its franchise with the J. P. Seeburg Corporation. This means that we are discontinuing the distribution of all new and used music equipment.

Because this announcement will come as a surprise to our many friends in the industry, we feel that we should make clear, why we are taking this step.

Be assured, that this decision was not made easily. Our 14’/i years' association with the J. P. Seeburg Cor- poration has been pleasant and satisfactory in every way.

We were one of the pioneers in the music business. We always felt that we sold a good product and gave good service, and were always concerned about the operators' welfare.

In this world of ever increasing specialization, and changing trends, we found it more and more difficult to do justice to our customers and friends by continuing to handle both music and games. Our chief aim has always been to maintain the high level of service for which we are known, and upon which our reputation and business has been built.

For these reasons and after a very thorough analysis of conditions in the music field generally, and its trend, we decided to step out of the music picture entirely, and center all of our efforts, knowledge and re- sources on the sales and service of games and other amusement equipment.

What does this change in policy mean to you? It is our earnest belief that we, as exclusive distributors of games and other amusement equipment, can now serve you even better than ever. Now we can concentrate our efforts in this field, without other interests, and so be even more alert to new ideas and values upon which you depend, to keep your business a live and growing thing.

Now we can give you even more personal attention, proving our products, before we offer them for sale, and advising you whenever you* feel the need of our long and varied experience. Now we can do an even better service job. We will continue to work with manufacturers on new things to come, not only ideas, but also pro- motion work, which will interest the public into playing your machines.

We are not youngsters in the coin machine field; having to date spent over 25 years in it. During this quar- ter of a century, we have enjoyed a measure of success, but more than that, is the joy and satisfaction we have received from having started many hundreds of operators on the road to success. We have also lent a help- ing hand to many others who seemed at times to falter.

We have enjoyed many wonderful friendships. It is our intent and desire to spend many more years of activity in the coin machine field, with the same Southern Automatic policy, You can count on our continued sincere cooperation and the best* in products and values.

May we hope to retain your friendship and business cooperation.

Joe Weinberger Leo Weinberger Sam Weinberger

And all your friends at
