Carl Fischer Plans
Special Jonas Campaign
Well-known Alberto Jonas Series of Piano
Instruction to Be Featured by Publisher Over
Six Months
Plans are shaping up for the retail sales con-
test to be conducted by Carl Fischer, Inc., New
York, in the six months' period, starting Sep-
tember IS and ending March 15 1928, to stimu-
late interest in the sale of the Alberto Jonas'
series of piano instruction. A sales manual
for the use of music clerks and dealers enter-
ing the contest is nearly completed and will be
distributed to the trade shortly with a general
retail circular and a special window card.
The Jonas work, which is in seven volumes,
was published by Carl Fischer, Inc., several
year ago, and is not a new publication, as was
the inference in a previous issue of The Re-
view. Although the series created a sensation
in musical and educational circles when first
published, it is expected that the sales contest
will serve to give the work the exploitation it
deserves. In addition to the four main prizes
of $200, $125, $75 and $25, cash awards will be
made to every clerk selling ten copies or more
of assorted volumes of the series. In case of
tie equal prizes will be awarded.
Reports of sales totals will be accompanied
by a letter in praise of the Jonas' Master
School and, in the event of a tie, the award
will go to the entrant submitting the best letter
according to the opinion of the judges.
Glass A Feist Numbers
Leo Feist, Inc., New York, which has been
conducting a special Summer campaign with
six of the latest Feist hits, has made an offer
to dealers which will apply on orders made
during August. The proposition is particularly
attractive in that such numbers as "Cheerie
Beerie Be," "Baby Mine," and "Are You Think-
ing of Me To-night?" will be listed as Class A
during the month. These songs have been in
great demand since issued and their popularity
is still on the increase. Other songs included
in the Class A offer are: "I'm Gonna Dance Wit
De Guy Wot Brung Me," the gum-chewer's
song, "Sixty Seconds Every Minute," and
"Baby Your Mother," a real ballad hit by
Morse, Donnelly and Burke.

ROBERT TELLER SONS & DORNER
An item of unusual interest has been an-
nounced L>y DeSylva, Brown & Henderson, Inc.,
New iork, which is to publish the music of
"Good News," a new musical production, now
in rehearsal, opening in Atlantic City in the
early part of August. After a week's stay in
Atlantic City, this show, a Lawrence Schwab
and Frank Mandel production, will appear for
three or four week in Philadelphia, and will
open early in September at the Ambassador
Theatre in New York.
The firm of DeSylva, Brown & Henderson,
Inc., which, during its short period of existence
has created such nation-wide song hits as "It
All Depends on You," "So Blue" and "Mag-
nolia," in addition to such big sellers as "South
"Wind," "I'ositively-Absolutely" and "I'm In
Love Again," is confident of attaining a similar
success with the hit numbers of the new show.
Favorable comparison can be made between
"Good News," "The Varsity Drag" and "Lucky
In Love," three of the outstanding numbers of
the show, and "Birth of the Blues," "Black
Bottom" and "Lucky'Day" in the current edi-
tion of George White's Scandals, which were
published last year by this house.
Prominent in the cast is George Olson, who
appears personally with his music. Mr. Olson
has already expressed his fondness for the score
of "Good News" and considers most of the
songs of the show so catchy and danceable that
they may be, in his estimation, all considered
"plug" tunes.
Sousa Features Bibo's
"March of the Blues'
Number Published by Bibo, Bloeden & Lang
Now Available in Band Orchestration—Other
Numbers in Catalog
The "March of the Blues," a recent composi-
tion of Irving Bibo, of the firm of Bibo, Bloe-
den & Lang, Inc., New York, is featured this
Summer by John Phillip Sousa and his band
playing a season's engagement on the Steel
Pier in Atlantic City. The number, which has
been arranged by Mr. Sousa for Bibo, Bloeden
& Lang, is now ready in band orchestration, and
a piano solo arrangement will be issued shortly.

The number is written in 6/8 fox-trot rhythm
and is full of blue figures and breaks, which are
peculiarly adapted to this rhythm.
Other big selling items which are being
pushed at this time by Bibo, Bloeden & Lang
are "Underneath the Weeping Willow," "Cherit-
za," a Viennese waltz, and "Old Names of Old
Flames," a number which is repeating the success
of the 1926 hit, "Am I Wasting My Time on
You." The folios, "Songs Everyone Loves,"
and "Neapolitan Sons Everyone Loves," and
"The Magic Pianist," are also developing a big
demand.
