Tuneful Musical Show by Anselm Goetzl
The new "Ziegfeld Follies,'' which opened at
the New Amsterdam Theatre, New York, on
Tuesday night of this week, is hailed as the
most elaborate as well as the most costly pro-
duction Fiorenz Ziegfeld" has ever presented.
The .music Calls for special comment, and there
probably are a naif dozen songs" which will be
recognized as'belonging to the hit class. "Girl
of My Dreams/-' as sung by John Steele, stands
out as among the best of the musical numbers.
It is made pointedly effective by the scene in
which it is sung. The song ""Bells," sung at
the rinale of the first act, promises to be one
of the 'biggest production hits of the year. It
is sung by ail the principals and the entire
chorus.
John Steele and De Lyle Alda, who have be-
come famous for their duets, sing "Tell Me Lit-
tle Gypsy.'' Close to the grand finale, Art Hick-
man's celebrated orchestra is brought down from

as far as productions go.
A new musical play, "The Rose Girl," book
and lyrics by Wm. Cary Duncan, and music
by Dr. Anselm Goetzl, is now in rehearsal and
will shortly be produced by the Gpetzl theat--
rical enterprises. The music will be published
by M. Witmark & Sons. Since his initial Amer-
ican successes in "The Royal Vagabond" and
'"Aphrodite," Dr. Goetzl has turned his atten-
tion to larger affairs,, and the field of producing
now welcomes him as an active agent. His
managerial responsibilities have in no wise af-
fected the melodic qualities of his pen, for the
music of "The Rose Girl" is said to -be a foun-
tain of tuneful measures.
MELODY SHOP ISSUES NEW SONGS
The Melody Shop, VVilliamsport, Pa., is the
publisher of a new song entitled "Sweet
Lullabys." The firm is making a special cam-
paign on the number, and from present indi-
cations it is to be quite popular during the
summer months. The words and music of the
number are by Arne Emerson, who has had
considerable success as a song writer. An-
other song by this writer, published by the
above firm, entitled, "Someone," a number
of the ballad type, is meeting popular approval.

Ray C. Blick, formerly connected with Mc-
Carthy & Fisher, Inc., has been appointed gen-
eral manager of the Riviera Music Co., the
prominent Chicago publishers. Mr. Blick has
had long experience in the sheet music field and
brings to the Riviera organization a wealth of
experience.
John A. Tenny, president of the Riviera Music
Co., is well pleased with adding Mr. Blick to
his organization. It is stated they have to-
gether formulated some new plans for distribut-
ing Riviera numbers which fit in very nicely
with the company's policies.
The Riviera company's growth has been very
rapid and much of this is due to the success of
"Desertland," an Oriental fox-trot, popular in
the vaudeville, band and orchestra and mechani-
cal reproduction fields.
