PHILADELPHIA-The charitable spirit
of the Phonograph Operators .in this terri-
tory was amply demonstrated when th ey
responded individually, and as a group, to
an appea l of the United Charities for old
Victor, Bluebird and Decca records . Ray·
mond Rosen & Co., in conjunction with th e
United Charities, were collectin g th ese old
discs for which th e Charity was being paid
two cents apiece.
The drive was officially opened on Sat·
urday, February 28 by Glenn Miller who
broadcast an appeal, over hi s "Sunset Sere·
nade" program, for records to be turn ed
over to th e Boy Scouts who will visit homes
on March 21 to pick up the records. Glenn
Mill er visited P hiladelphia to playa USO
show at the Benjamin Franklin Hotel,
where more than 1800 people-including
every mi li'tary man off duty attended. He

presented a number of records to the Boy
Scouts in addition to making the opening
announcement of the drive.
A pledge was made by the Phonograph
Operators Association that they would con·
tribute several thousand records to the
United Charities. The original appeal was
made by the writer, who doubles as sales
promotioner for Rosen & Co., during a
speci'al meeting held at the Club Bali.
Jack Cade has caught on to the intrica-
cies of his job as business manager of the
Phonograph Operators Association and has
made a hit with the boys for the smooth
manner in which it has been operating. He
has received the unqualified support of
the organization's new officers, who are:
William King, Quaker Vending Co., Presi·
dent; Charles Young, representing th e New
J ersey territory, Vice·President; Benjamin
Hankin, Treasurer and Sidney Myers,
Secretary.
Travelog: Eddie Heller, enterprising rec·
ord ma nager for Abe Lyman's swell band,
spent some time with local operators. Eddie
Kline of Premier Automatic Music, Lou
Lalli of the same organization and th eir
wives, all spent time in the West during th e
past month . Barry Wood, th e world's great·
est Bond salesman, was a visitor to P hilly
this past month, as was Ca rson Robison
whose "Slap Th e Dirty Little Jap" put him
on top of the best seller record list.
Robison made a broad cast over WIP that
was dubbed the most se nsa tional in years
for before he finished introducing four new
tun es which he had recorded, the switch·
board of th e station was flooded with calls
for information askin g where the records
co uld be secured. All were recorded on
Bluebird records.
Co mmittee Chairman for the Phonograph
