An Imperi al man, pawned his dress suit
while hi s wife was out' of the Valley during
the summer, an d redeemed it before she
return ed. H e forgo t to r emove th e P awn
Broker's tags, however. Th ey received an
invita tion to a party and the wife, desiring
to check th e condition of th e suit, took
the coat from the closet and asked her
husband to explain th e tag. He replied
that he had worn it to a party and it was
so hot that he had checked it. In a few
moments his wife confronted him and,
pointing to th e tag on th e trousers, said,
"What kind of a party was it, anyhow?"

"Sleepers"
R ecords listed in this classification are
unusual-either the tune or the form of
treatment-and are proving surprises or
"sleepers" in many locations throughout
the country, according to information re-
ceived from operators. Any one of th ese
records may brea k into the "favorites" class
above. Operators are invited to hear th e
followin g sides with an eye toward dis-
covering a smash-hit and a nickel-nabber :
AMAPOLA, lovely Sp a ni s h -fl av ored
song by Jimmy Dorsey and band on Decca.
Jimmy's very original form of treatm ent,
allowing both Bob Eberly a nd Helen O'Con-
nell to sin g a vocal chorus, makes thi s a
"must" for all machines. Destined to be
Dorsey's biggest hit since Lazonga.
BY THE WATE RMELON VINE, by
Benny Carter's band with a vocal refrain
by Mills brothers. Tricky tun e and com-
mercial, appealing performance. On Decca.
IF IT'S A HIT-
THESE DEALERS HAVE
IT BY THE BEST BANDS
IN THE BUSINESS!

W HOSE THEME SO NG? Dick Him-
ber has this one, available on both Decca
and Vi ctor. Clever mixin g of theme songs
of the best name bands, on two sides. A
natural fo r college locations and spots
wh ere kids and musicians hang out.
SO NG OF THE VOLGA BOATMEN,
Glenn Miller on Bluebird. May be another
T UXEDO JUNCTION; at least Miller
hopes so and pattern ed it on that sa me
style. Worth tryin g.
"Evergreens"
Records listed below are those whi ch
year in and year out co nsistently lure
nickels, despite prevailin g popularity of
songs. A coupl e or three of th ese in a ma-
chin e is insurance itself. Time has proved
th eir worth .
THE MAN AT THE END OF T HE
BAR. Tiny Hill and band on Okeh have
this-a tailor-made di sc fo r barrooms and
taverns.
IN THE MOOD. Glenn Mill er again
on Bluebird. Still strong in thousands of
machin es.
MARIE . Tommy Dorsey on Victor is
still rea ping royalti es on the biscuit which
ma de hi s band fa mous.
PLEASE, ST ARDUST, DEAR OLD
GIRL. Bing Crosby, th e evercommercial,
has three stron g on es here. All Decca.
W OODCHOPPER'S BALL, Woody
Herman, Decca.
I WANT A LITTLE GIRL. Count
Basie's Okeh version is easily the strong-
est. A terrific bet which many operators
have overlooked but which, in middle-
wes tern locations, is doin g so well that
all th e oth er companies are reco rding it
and pushin g it. Looks good fo r a long time
the way Basie and vocali st Jimmy Rushing
ha ndle it.
