VOLUME XIX -NUMBER 24 MARCH 1, 1958

The new AMI automatic music machine is destined to be seen as far away as the River Kwai, says Mitch Miller who helps introduce the Model “I” series above. The new machines are currently being shown throughout the country by all AMI distributors. Likewise Mitch has a hit which is probably on most of the machines currently on location, “River Kwai March & Colonel Bogey” on Columbia.

“DROP TOP” (2:15) [Hip Hill BMI—Suarez] “THAT’S WHAT THE MAILMAN HAD TO SAY” (3:05) [Hip Hill BMI—Suarez]

ROY "BOOGIE-BOY" PERKINS (Rom 122)

• Here’s a sleeper out of left field that could build into one of the teenagers’ favorites. Featuring newcomer Roy “Boogie-Boy” Perkins on the Ram label, the number is a house-rockin’ jumper dubbed “Drop Top.” It’s a wild and woolly R & R belting of a tune describing a con- vertible automobile that the songster has just bought. It’s got that pile- driving beat that doesn’t let up for a second and Perkins’ delivery features a number of good vocal gimmicks. Good side to watch. The lower lid has a country blues flavor. Slow beat rocker dubbed “That’s What The Mailman Had To Say”.

JAMES CONKLING

BURBANK, CALIF. — Warner Bros. Pictures, Inc., will enter the electronics field through the formation of a wholly owned subsidiai-y for world-wide development and distribution of electronics equipment, it was announced last week by Jack L. War- ner, president. James B. Conkling, former president of Columbia Records, has been named president of the new Warner Bros, subsidiary, which will begin its activities with the recording and distribution of phonograph records, War- ner stated. Conkling’s appointment is effective immediately. A substantial investment will be made by Warner Bros, in forming the new company, which will develop, in addition to a phonograph records business, a variety of products in the field of sound electronics. Warner Bros, long has been associated with the development of sound equipment and is well known as the first motion picture company to produce and distribute sound and “talking” pictures. The decision to form the new subsidiary followed an exhaustive survey of the electronics and recording field and its potentialities, Warner said.

another Seeburg contribution to greater earnings

Now Seeburg adds Dual Programming to Dual Pricing to present operators the opportimity to profitably merchandise both kinds of records. With new Seeburg Dual Programming, EP album records (two tunes per side) are programmed in the brilliantly illuminated, self-advertising upper display panel. Current releases on singles are programmed in appropriate categories in the lower display panel. Attractive pricing windows in both panels explain the Dual Pricing feature of the new Seeburg music systems.

G RE j)f BRITAIN GOSSIP

Bal-Ami has scooped the pool in Britain as far as television “plugs” for juke-boxes are concerned. AMI machines of d-fferent sizes now appear in all major spots on both BBC and commercial television, and are used for

plugging juke-box records of the week, to the advantage of all concerned. . . . Although the big beat, skiffle, and ballads-with-a-beat are still dominating plays in British phonographs a curious trend has emerged in the last ten days. That is that many boxes, especially in Catholic areas are getting considerable plays on two records by a French priest who plays the guitar and sings deeply religious numbers. His name is Aime Duval and he is the first man to prove in Britain that the teenagers still want religious

material, if they understand it. . . . The decision of Bradford, Yorkshire, magistrates that a bubble gum machine containing plastic trinkets, mixed with the balls of gum, was a lottery, is to be challenged in the divisional court. The owner of the machine, Samuel Wheeldon, of Westfield Crescent, Yeadon, Nr. Leeds, who was given a conditional discharge on payment of 10 guineas costs, advises that he has applied for the magistrates to state

a case. . . . Fred Bastow, a well known operator for several years at the

Pleasure Park, Barry Island, died following a major operation. . . . An appeal by C. Wise, against the refusal of the Northam (North Devon) Urban District Council to permit the erection of coin-operated fun machines on land adjoining the slip-way at Westward Hoe has proved successful. Wise won his appeal to the Minister of Housing and Local Government. Chicago Automatics has been demonstrating a German wall machine it is handling called “Ultra”. This is electrically operated and has three drums displaying fruit symbols or numbers. It pays out on two-four-eight-ten. The makers claim that the machine definitely calls for skill on the part of

the player. . . . New leather cases for Punch Ball machines are being put out by Morris Shefras. This firm also has a brand-new pay-out wall machine' called “Extrawin,” with a come-again feature in the shape of a rotor in the

center of a playing field. . . . Phonograph operators from London, Doncaster, Colwyn Bay, the Isle of Wight, Birmingham, and Kent have been attending the first of a series of servicing courses and discussions inaugurated by Arthur Brown of the Llandudno HQ of Automaton Distributors Ltd., the firm which has the sole rights in Britain and the Commonwealth to the excellent Wiegandt “Tonmaster” and “Diplomat” phonographs. The course was supervised by the general manager, sales manager, technical chief, and foremen engineers of the company, and was voted a big success by all who attended. It is stated, incidentally, that the “Tonmaster” is the only complete wall juke-box, as far as is known, in the world. Previous boxes of this type featured separate speakers.

However, despite the conditions, coinrow was loaded with • operators, who in most instances came down to view the new line of AMI model “I” phonographs at*****Runyon Sales.

Regardless, the hardy operators and Shugy’s many friends came in, some even from Westchester and the N.Y. mountain area. A sur- Greater prisingly large number of operators visited Runyon, with others dropping in the latter part of the week. Assisting Shugy were Irv (Kempy) Kempner, Perry Lowengrub, Morris Rood, Lou Wolberg and Jack Prigoff. From the AMI factory were Artie Daddis and Marty Blatt. Daddis and Blatt, flew in Profits from Montreal, where they had been attending the AMI showing of Laniel. They told some hair raising stories of their efforts to get to Montreal, and then to get back to N.Y. Shugy reports operators were quite enthusiastic
