VOLUME XXII—NUMBER 23 FEBRUARY 18, 1961

It’s always great to see a dynamic performer make it on records. One such artist is Damita Jo, a veteran show-stopper and a professional enter- tainer in every sense of the word, who caught the ear of the disk buying public with her exciting Mercury pressing of “I’ll Save The Last Dance For You.'” Currently the thrush is following up with her driving version of “Keep Your Hands Off Him,” and seems to be headed for a tremen- dously successful career on records. Now appearing at the Diplomat in Florida, Damita is seen on stage in the hotel’s Tack Room swingin’ for the adults, and on the diving hoard wowing the younger set. The lark recently appeared on the Ed Sullivan TV’er and won rave notices for the stint. (HANDY MAN)

With success now going to his head, Anthony quietly revealed that his next project is to find the ugliest Christmas tie in the world. (Dear Al, we have some dandies here at the office!) Incidentally, the beer cans m will be sold for scrap^ and the money donated to charity. . . . Another unusual contest was held by KEYZ- Williston, N.D. jockey Freeman Hover, who devoted “I’M GOIN’ HOME” his most recent antics to listeners outside the local Williston telephone exchange who could not participate in other recent contests. Hover effectively cross-plugged with Johnny and Ro\ve in Denver (KTLN), whose all night show is heard in W illiston after the KEYZ sign-off. Hover asked listeners to write Rowe for his autograph, and forward it to Hover who in turn sent out free records. Response was reportedly fantastic. Hover and Rowe feel “I SEE A MILLION PEOPLE” that similar promotions might be worked out on a larger scale by other jockies when there is no station competition factor involved. (Sounds like an ingenious idea). . PFC Boyd P. Magers, the AFKN Radio Gypsy who calls the shots for the Armed Forces Radio in Korea, is in dire need of recordings or tapes of the old Louis rock ’n’ roll hits to satisfy the many requests he’s receiving for this type of Jordan programming.

on Reprise is a notable pairing of two unusual songs by Sammy Cahn and Jimmy Van Heusen: THE SECOND TIME AROUND* b/wTINA*

It is Sinatra in rare voice and mood, doing Sinatra things to refreshing lyric and melodic material. Without laboring the point, pre-release comment indicates this just might prove to be one of the most spectacular Sinatra singles of this (or any) year.
