AT THE BLOSSOM HEATH INN
Virginia Serenaders Begin Summer Engage-
ment at Well-known Road House
After a remarkably successful Winter season,
during which they appeared in all the leading
Keith houses, the Virginia Serenaders have
settled down to a Summer engagement at Blos-
som Heath Inn. "Entertainment as well as
music" is the slogan of this band of eight clever
and versatile instrumentalists and jazz artists—
they are really artists at it—and the Blossom
Heath patrons are assuredly in for a good time
this Summer. Merritt Brand is the leader.
The person who writes the best jubilee march
song for the forthcoming city celebration of
New York's jubilee is to get a $1,000 prize.
The sum has been offered by William H.
Woodin, chairman of the Mayor's celebration
committee, and was announced this week by
City Chamberlain Philip Berolzheimer.
The scores should be sent to Mr. Berolz-
heimer at the Municipal Building and "the con-
test is open to all citizens of the city." The
work must be submitted by June 1 and the
words "should pertain to the cultural advance-
ment of New York City and its artistic progress
during the last twenty-five years."
The march song must be scored for military
bands, brass and reed, and all contestants must
send in the full band score and a piano and
vocal arrangement in trying for the prize. The
name of the composer should be placed in a
sealed envelope and attached to the score, which
should not bear the author's name anywhere.
The words, which are to be judged by the
Authors' League, should be submitted in type-
written form on a separate sheet, as well as
written into the score. The prize is to be
divided equally between the composer of the
music and the author of the words.
The judges of the music are to be Mr. Berolz-
heimer, Dr. Frank Damrosch, Edwin Franko
Goldman, Victor Herbert, William Thorner,
Josiah Zuro, Dr. William C. Carl and Walter
Kiesewetter.

rally, his many Shriner friends will urge him
to go on a little further, but he is a director
of the Music Industries Chamber of Commerce,
as well as president of the National Associa-
tion of Sheet Music Dealers, so it is Chicago
and not Washington for Ed. Little, for he is
an enthusiastic Association man.
Louis Colin, one of the best-known salesmen
and professional managers in the popular
music field, died on Sunday last, due to a com-
plication of diseases. Mr. Colin for many years
was professional manager for Chas. K. Harris.
