New Novelty Number
"Down by the Winegar Woiks," Written by
Pittsburgh Men, to Have an Intensive Ex-
ploitation
Shapiro, Bernstein & Co., which, in recent
years, has been noted for its novelty songs, has
issued a new number called "Down by the
Winegar Woiks." The number has been popu-
lar through its appearance on the radio. The
publishers took a liking to the tune and sent
an emissary to Pittsburgh, where it was first
heard, for the purpose of arranging for its pub-
lication. However the writers, who are mem-
bers of a popular orchestra, had left the city
and were on tour, and it was necessary to fol-
low them to several cities. "Down by the
Winegar Woiks" is a novelty waltz song which,
when played by orchestras, contains a vocal ver-
sion. One of the writers is Don Bestor, of the
Don Bestor Orchestra, and the others who con-
tributed to the number are Roger Lewis and
Walter Donovan. The Shapiro, Bernstein band
and orchestra department expects to put the
number over in a short but intensive cam-
paign, which has been arranged in its behalf
and which will utilize all the various channels
of exploitation.
