James L. Kelty Joins
Cleveland Press Drive
on Sam Fox "Footloose" Harold Flammer Sales Force
Newspaper Uses Big Fleet of Trucks in Sup- Shortly to Make Pacific Coast Sales Trip on
plementary Campaign on Popular Number
This Firm's and Luckhardt & Belder Publi-
cations
The Sam Fox Publishing Co., of Cleveland, O.,
and New York, which sponsored the song "Foot-
Harold Flammer, Inc., announces the appoint-
loose," in conjunction with the serial story of ment of James L. Kelty, formerly of the 15. F.
the same name, which ran in over eight hun- Wood Music Co. and Boston Music Co., as a
dred papers throughout the United States, is member of its sales force. Mr. Kelty will
continuing its exploitation drive en this fox- shortly make an extended trip, including an in-
trot and song despite the fact that the final in- itial tour of the Pacific Coast, in the interest of
stalments of the "Footloose" serial have ap- the Flammer catalog and Luckhardt & Bolder
publications. In addition to the standard Flam-
peared in the newspapers.
Seemingly, "Footloose" has much other value mer and Luckhardt & Belder items, Mr. Kelty
from a musical standpoint than the mere hook- will present a series of new specialty numbers,
up with the serial story. Of course, the pub-
licity the number received through the extensive
advertising in the columns of the press has
given it an introduction that it would not have
otherwise procured. The fact, however, that it
continues in popularity after the co-operative
publicity has been eliminated marks it as un-
usual.
We herewith show what is described as a
fleet of trucks used as part of a supplementary
publicity campaign by the Cleveland Press in
conjunction with the "Footloose" drive in that
city. This was probably one of the most, ex-
tensive local advertising drives of this form ever
made on a popular number.

The Review. In it advertisements are inserted
free of charge for men who desire positions.

Music Theft Solved
BOSTON, MASS., December 19.—The larceny of
music valued at about $6,000 during two or three
years was the charge placed against Frederick
W. Shulz, of Randolph, when he was arrested
here to-day.
Shulz got the music, both in sheet and bound
form, from the store of the Arthur P. Schmidt
Co. here through the agency of one or more
employes, according to the charges. He lost
his position as clerk in the store three years
ago.
The police in Randolph sent word that music
valued at $3,000 had been seized in Shulz's
home. They believe that the remainder had been
shipped to a relative in New York, to be sold
there.
"Georgia Stockade Blues"
The Edward B. Marks Music Co. has joined
the ranks of those issuing funereal ditties. Its
offering is called "Georgia Stockade Blues,"
written by Tom Delaney and said to be based
upon the inspiration received through a
colored prisoner in a Georgia stockade. Delaney
ought to do the number well inasmuch as he
is the composer of "Jazz-it Blues," "Mournful
Blues," "Down Home Blues" and "The Seven
Years Itch."

Berlin Show a Hit
The new show, "The Cocoanuts," featuring
the Four Marx Brothers, which recently opened
in New York City, is hailed as one of the most
entertaining attractions of the season. The mu-
sic, which is by Irving Berlin, is fast gaining
popularity and does much to make "The Cocoa-
nuts" one of the big shows of several seasons.
The numbers include "A Little Bungalow,"
"Florida by the Sea," "Lucky Boy," "The
Monkey Doodle Doo," "We Should Care" and
