exit of Mary Casperson, who turned in
an efficient fill-in job, from the Decca
picture. However, the unemployed didn't
have Mary's name on their list very
long, for she was grabbed by the Em-
pire Hotel in San Francisco, for whom
she will perform stenographic duties.
Coinings on the Cuff-The church has
been selected, the clergyma n has been
arranged for, the invitations have been
placed in the mail and the bride is wait-
ing demurely, so there won't be any
m ore postponements in the much-de-
layed Bob Chamberlin wedd ing. Valen-
tine's Day will mark the culmination of
old Dan Cupid's strenuous campaign.
Dan, according to reliable reports , is
demanding overtime pay for this job.
Dyna mic Cliff Carter, American Rec-
ord's a ll-a round ace, puts more drive
into his w ork than a college fullback ...
"Speedboat" Johnny Michael vows that
he'll wreak vengeance on those speed-
boat racers who drubbed him with such
regularity last summer . . . Heberling
Brothers have discontinued their phono-
graph operations and are concentrating
their efforts on sales boards and pin
games. That's a tough break for the
boys working at the record houses , for
they'll be missing Sybil Stark, the firm's
record buyer. You'd be surprised what
that gal's contagious smile does to
brighten an otherwise drab day.
A rising threat to Porky Jacobs' crown
as Coin Row's ace laugh-maker: Bob
Walker, who has at least one thing in
common with Comedian Bob Burns-
their first names are identical , . , Frank
Allen, the Decca men, was a former ace
trumpeter in Vic Meyers' orchestra and
he still maintains friendships with lead-
ing bandsters. Recently seen discussing
phono hits with him was Orchestra
Leader Archie Loveland, whose b oys
have been clicking in a big way at the
Olympic Hotel ballroom.
There is sorrow among Coin Row's
fair damsels because Operator Ray
Pepple is minus that cute upper lip
adornment that so endeared him to fem-
inine hearts. A slightly unsteady hand
on January I tried to shave the Pepple
face, which explains the mustache's ab-
sense on January 2.

Keene 'Fixed Up'
"Here's something to be glad for," grins Jack Moore , well known West Coast
distributor, as he looks over Bally's new IO-way multiple with double reserve,
Hawthorne.
Thus retained in their offices for at least
another year are: president, capable
Martin Mitnick; vice-president, stout,
friendly Frank Engel; secretary, ener-
getic Jack Brandt; treasurer, honest Mor-
ris Stein, and financial secretary, com-
petent Ben Hankin.
These men again will be inducted
into office at the annual banquet, plans
for which are now being laid. This af-
fair, expected to be one of the finest
ever staged by this organization, will
be held during February. The entertain-
ment committee has devoted a great
deal of time and effort to ensure every-

has been "fixed up" for sure. In his lat-
est picture he wears a big smile and a
number. But the number is harmless
enough - 80Ml3 - and represents the
1939 license plate he expected to put
on his Lincoln Zephyr car. The sad part
is that in Los Angeles recently someone
stole the Zephyr when Keene wasn't
looking, but didn't get the numbers .
Keene says the car had a Reliance
nickel in the "roomy boot" which he
promises to give the finder if he will
return the car.
