"ALA MOANA," BIG WESTERN HIT, FOR IRVING BERLIN
NEW BEE TEE CO. NUMBERS
New York Publishing House Buys Number From Florentine Music Co., of San Francisco—Ber-
lin Organization Placing Active Campaign of Exploitation Behind Its Purchase
T h e recently organized Bee Tee P u b l i s h i n g
Co., 145 W e s t Forty-fifth street, N e w Y o r k City,
has released t w o n u m b e r s , a comedy, " K e e p ll
U n d e r Y o u r H a t , " originally introduced by
Eddie C a n t o r in the musical show, " M a k e ll
Snappy," a n d a ballad entitled " G r a n d d a d d y . "
I'oth songs a r c having good sales on t h e sheet
music c o u n t e r s of t h e country a n d also will
shortly bo released in record form by several
leading t a l k i n g m a c h i n e companies.
The purchase by Irving Berlin, Inc., of the
Pacific Coast hit, "Ala Moana," from the Floren-
tine Music Co., of San Francisco, Cal., will bring
to Eastern and Middle West territory a number
which should be one of the most active sellers
during the present season. The sales depart-
ment of the Berlin organization reports that
the song has been received most favorably by
the trade which, undoubtedly, has heard some
comments of its earlier success upon the Pacific
Coast.
Th.e professional band and orchestra depart-
ments of the Berlin organization have inaugu-
rated an exploitation campaign in behalf of "Ala
Moana" and this intensive publicity drive will
be carried far into the Summer months. The
fact that the number, in addition to being an
appealing song, is a timely dance number, adds
to its value and will, undoubtedly, increase its
sale.
The various branch offices of the Berlin or-
ganization will also take part in the campaign
on the number. They will follow up the orches-
tras in the cities where branch offices are located
and in adjacent territory. The offices will also
rehearse acts on the number when they visit
various cities. Dance orchestras and photo-plav
house musical organizations will be given par-
ticular attention in the drive.
The number will shortly be released by vari-
ous talking machine record and player roll com-
panies and this added publicity, together with
the co-operation of the trade, should result in
"Ala Moana" having a large sale. The song was
written by Bob Lukens and Johnny Noble and
is a novelty Hawaiian fox-trot.
