Sam Fox Plans Intensive
Campaign on "Love Bound"
Special Drive of Ten Days Is Planned With Co-
operation of Over Twenty Mechanical Re-
cording Companies on the Number
One of the most intensive sales drives ever
planned in behalf of a popular song has
been arranged by the Sam Fox Publishing Co.,
BOUND
and will be distributed either to sheet music
jobbers or manufacturers and distributors in
the record and roll fields. Thus it is planned
that music stores of every description in the
country will take part in the sales drive.
Incidentally the Fox organization is distribut-
ing several hundred thousand pieces of litera-
ture for direct-mail purposes through record
jobbers. These can be sent out to consumers in
conjunction with the monthly record bulletins.
All together it is planned that practically every-
one in the country will in some form or man-
ner have "Love Bound" called to his or her
attention.
The Fox organization intends to continue the
campaign on "Love Bound" for a month or two
at least. after this special week drive, for the
"Ten Days of Love Bound" are planned only
to bring to a climax the preliminary campaign
which has been carried out by the Fox firm,
many singers and dance orchestras, as well as
a number of broadcasting stations during the
past two months.
"Moonlight and Roses"
Breaks Denver Records
So Declares Cleveland Davis, of Villa Moret, Inc.
—"Thanks for the Buggy Ride" Also Being
Featured in Big Way—Richmond a Visitor
DENVER, COLO., April 3.—Cleveland Davis, who
represents Villa Moret, Inc., the well-known
San Francisco popular publishing firm, says that
"Moonlight and Roses" is still holding up well.
"We have broken all records in this town for
actual sales of this song and are repeating with
our newest offering 'Thanks for the Buggy
Ride,'" says Mr. Davis.
"Thanks for the Buggy Ride" is being featured
by Charley Scheuerman, the Paul Whiteman of
Colorado, and so are several other good or-
chestras. Another Villa Moret number that is
beginning to show up well is "Blinky Moon
Bay."
When Maurice Richmond, the well-known
music distributor and traveling correspondent,
was in this city some time ago he showed real
enthusiasm over the way Cleveland Davis, of the
Villa Moret Co., exploits his firm's numbers in
this territory.

Real Butter and Egg Man
Brings Suit for Slander
Minneapolis Dealer Charges That Vaudeville
Actress Holds Entire Trade Up to Ridicule
in the Presentation of Song of That Name
Contending that the term "butter and egg
man" is an insult to Minnesota and butter and
egg men in general, Herman Klinglehulz, a
dealer in Minneapolis, has filed suit for $100,000
damages against a theatre and Frankie
Heath, the well-known singing actress, charging
that in the song called "Butter and Eggs" she
used certain notes and gestures to convey that
all dealers in butter and eggs were men of im-
moral character—and "thereby holding plaintiff
and others similarly situated to hatred, contempt
and ridicule."

C a r l Kupp
New York and Cleveland, O., on "Love Bound."
In co-operation with this campaign, which is
described as "Ten Days of Love Bound," over
twenty mechanical reproduction companies, in-
cluding many of the talking machine record and
player roll organizations, will feature song and
dance selections of the composition, and, in
some instances, will make special releases of this
number.
Sam Fox representatives throughout the coun-
try have arranged everywhere for radio broad-
casting, photoplay presentation, vaudeville and
dance programming of "Love Bound," either in
song or instrumental form. The result should
be that the exploitation and publicity will bring
thousands of customers into the music stores
and thus start the Spring season with flying
colors.
Much special literature, window strips, plac-
ards, streamers and supplementary material
have been produced by the Fox organization
