PHONOGRAPHS LURE
RURALITES TO CITY
After listening to their favor­
ite name bands on automatic
phonographs all winter, persons
living in towns surrounding big
cities like to come to the city in
the summer to see the band lead­
ers in person.
That this is true in Chicago
was indicated by Warnie Jones,
booker for Balaban & Katz,
theater chain o w n ers, who
pointed to the personal appear­
ance of Sammy Kaye in a Chi­
cago theater as an example.
Jones said nine out of ten per­
sons who came up on the theater
stage to lead Kaye’s band— this
audience participation was a
drawing card of Kaye’s appear­
ance— were from out-of-town.

nently increasing income.
