THE MUSIC TRADE REVIEW
CONDUCTED BY B. B. WILSON
FEIST REPRESENTATIVES NAMED

Stronger Demand for Feist Prints

In addition to branch offices of Leo Feist, Inc.,
representatives will shortly be placed in some of
the larger cities of the country where offices are
not already located. Appointments have been
made from the various branches and the repre-
sentatives will be placed in centrally located
cities to enable them to cover several large
towns in each state. Mort Schafer has been ap-
pointed representative at Minneapolis, Minn.,
and will look after that state and sections of
adjoining states. Frank Novak has been placed
at Cincinnati and will also look after Columbus
and Indianapolis. Archie Lloyd, who has been
connected with the Philadelphia office, has taken
charge of Baltimore, Washington, Richmond
and Wilmington, Del.
The representatives will look after the pub-
licity campaigns in their territories with the ob-
ject of giving better service to orchestras, bands,
moving picture houses, etc. If the new system
proves effective it will create a bigger demand
in those districts for Feist songs and, of course,
in the long run, will bring the dealer more
business.
James Troup, manager of the Wm. Jerome
Publishing Corp., has an array of songs at pres-
ent that is keeping his force on their mettle to
take care of the demands of the'professional
singers who use the numbers, and to fill the
demands from the trade created by that pub-
licity. One of the bright lights of the catalog
is "Come on Over Here," a high-class number
that is making a strong appeal to prominent
artists. Mr. Jerome .claims that it is his best
song since "Mr. Dooley," and expects it to
rival that number in popularity. Among the
artists who are using "Come on Over Here"
are included; Bert Williams, Frank Fogarty,
Eddie Cantor, Hooper & Marley, Billy Gibson
and Texas Guinan and others.
Jerry Delaney, in "Rubeville," is singing "That
Old New England Town" with great success,
and that number is also being strongly featured
by Chauncey Olcott. Several "Mutt and Jeff"
companies are using "Turn to the Right,"
"That Old New England Town," and George M.
Cohan's latest song, "There's Only One Little
Girl." Truly, it's a busy season.
Silvio Hein, who has won a reputation and in-
cidentally earned quite a lot of money as a com-
poser of musical comedies of the successful sort,
branched out this week as a producer of Shakes-
pearean works. Mr. Hein's first production is
"The Merry Wives of Windsor," with Thomas
A. Wise as Falstaff and a fine supporting cast,
and the opening was held at the Park Theatre
on Monday night. Here's hoping that it's an-
other good year for Shakespearean plays.
