NEW RICHMOND_WORD CODE
Ager, Yellen & Bornstein Featuring Song De-
scribed as Sister to the Success, "Lovin' Sam"
Witmark Number Sung by Well-known Artist
in Ziegfeld's "Follies"
Used for Telegraph Orders in Monthly Bulletin,
It Finds Much Favor
Ager, Yellen & Bornstein, Inc., publishers of
"Lovin' Sam" and "Who Cares?", have inaugu-
rated a Summer and publicity sales campaign
on "Louisville Lou," described as a sister to
"Lovin' Sam." The number is heard frequently
in vaudeville, being sung by practically the same
singers that made "Lovin' Sam" a national
favorite. As a fox-trot, it is being played by
hundreds of leading orchestras throughout the
country and it is more than possible that "Louis-
ville Lou" will have as large a sale as was
recorded by its predecessor, "Lovin' Sam."
Eddie Cantor, who returned to Ziegfeld's
"Follies" after an absence of several seasons, is
singing the M. Witmark & Sons number, "Bebe."
The song, with a lyric by Abner Silver and
music by Sam Coslow, is a typical Cantor de-
sign and for that reason he will do much to
make it popular. The number, however, is not
confined to the "Follies" production, but will
be introduced in vaudeville. It has many catch
lines and comedy chorus and is arranged for
singles, doubles, trios, quartets and dancing, in
all keys. The professional department of Wit-
mark's will make it one of the leading songs
of the catalog.
The Richmond Music Supply Corp., 133 West
Forty-first street, New York City, one of the
largest music distributors in the United States,
is using a very clever idea in its monthly trade
bulletin. In the listing of popular songs a one-
word name appears in parentheses beside each
selection which can be used by the dealer as a
telegraph code. The trade has readily accepted
this new idea and found it valuable for ordering.
It simplifies the telegram and economizes in the
expense. This original feature has won such a
ready response that the Richmond organization
will elaborate on it and make it possible for the
trade to use a similar code when ordering other
than popular selections, including practically all
readily known standard numbers.
"I LOVE MEMVIDELY SUNG
The Broadway Music Corp. is the publisher
of "I Love Me," the song which received its
original success from Will Mahoney in vaude-
ville and which is now being sung successfully
by Georgie Price in "Spices of 1923" and fea-
tured by Vincent Lopez and His Hotel Penn-
sylvania Orchestra. The number has unusual
novelty values, both in song and dance form,
and the publisher, for that reason, is making it
the feature of its catalog.
PRAISES THE^ONFREY COURSE
Lee S. Roberts, the well-known pianist and
composer, and vice-president of the Q R S
Music Co., has written a letter to Zez Confrey
congratulating him upon his new publication,
"Modern Course in Novelty Piano Playing."
This folio has just reached the hands of the
trade and its initial reception has been quite
favorable.
VANDERPOOLJWNGS BY RADIO
Miss Emily Beglin, formerly soprano with the
Metropolitan Opera Co., recently presented a
group of semi-classical compositions from the
broadcasting station of the American Telegraph
& Telephone Co., 195 Broadway, New York
City. The numbers were all from the pen of
the American composer, Frederick W. Vander-
pool, with Mr. Vanderpool acting as accom-
panist. The songs included " 'Neath the
Autumn Moon," "Lam'ie Love," "Lorna Doone,"
"Heart to Heart," "Values," "A Rose in Au-
tumn" and "Can It Be Love?"
THREE NEW LOVE^SONGS ISSUED
The New Fraternity, Sewickley, Pa., has
issued a series of three love songs, the most
important of which is entitled "All the World Is
in Love." The other numbers are entitled "I
Think of You" and "Wonderful, Glorious
Spring." The first number is being forwarded
to the trade, issued with a very striking title
page in blue and white.
