LOS ANGELES.-In response to inquir-
ies- .. from music operators on the Pacific
Coast, announcement has been made by C.
C. Helm, zone manager for the Mills Nov-
elty Co. phonograph division in San Fran-
cisco, and E.llsworth lucore, district man-
ager with headquarters in Los Angeles, that
the new Mills D o-Re-Mi phonograph is
ready for delivery in this territory. First
shipments were expected early this month.
Mr. Helm's headquarters is at the Wil-
liam Taylor Hotel in San Francisco, while
Mr. Lucore maintains his office at the Jon-
athan Club in Los Angeles.
H. W. Davis, factory representative for
the Mills phonograph division in Southern
California and adjacent territory, announces
his establishment of headquarters at 542
North Arden Boulevard, Los Angeles, for
sales of the Do-Re-Mi and its companion
phonograph, the.peLuxe D ance Master.
The new Do~Re-Mi, first introduced at
the Coin Machin-e Show in Chicago in Feb-
ruary, is now swinging into the production
schedule at the Mills plant, it was reported
from Chicago by W. P. Mudgett, of the
firm's sales division.
Among the novel features of the new
model , in addition to a recently perfected
coin chute which Mills engineers say is
"99 9-10 per cent" slug proof, is an un-
usual play stimulator called the radio coin
box. The latter is a portable unit by which
location patrons may deposit coins and se-
lect their record programs by remote con-
trol without the necessity of going over to
the phonograph itself. Dual Speakers also
are featured on the Do-Re-Mi.

• Wurlitzer cps and wives quests
at Cafe de Paree party.
LOS ANGELES.-Although the photo-
graph of the affair didn 't turn out so well,
the dinner party given at the Cafe de Paree
March 20th for Wurlitzer operators and
their guests by W . E. Simmons on the occa-
sion of a visit here by Homer E. Capehart,
vice-president and general sales manager of
the Wurlitzer Mfg. Co., and Mrs. Cape-
hart gives THE REVIEW a chance to do some
word picturing.
Some 15 3 guests checked in for the gay
party, at which Homer Capehart gave a
brief talk without the expected assistance of
his pal from Bakersfield, Phil Brown.
"Cape" reveal ed that he had some swell
comebacks prepared in case Phil was in his
usual form, but somebody else stole the
spotlight from Phil , and " Cape" had to
think up a lot of new ones.
