Featuring New Song, "I'll Always Remember
You," as Well as Other Outstanding Prints
of Catalog
Bernard Prager, long connected with the Ed-
ward B. Marks Music Co., and who recently
joined the sales staff of Robbins-Engel, Inc., is
on the road making his initial sales trip for his
new associates. Mr. Prager's first trip will be
only a short one of several weeks, but a little
later in the season it is to be extended over
much larger territory.
On his present trip Mr. Prager will feature
the new song, "I'll Always Remember You."
This number is proving one of the big successes
of the Robbins-Engel catalog and is featured
by many orchestras, including that of Paul
Whiteman. Other numbers that will receive
his attention and be again presented to the
trade, all outstanding Robbins-Engel prints, are
"Trail of Dreams" and "Calling," both numbers
that have been very active. He will also fea-
ture the Robbins-Engel songs from Earl Car-
roll's "Vanities," including "Who'd You Love?"
"Hugs and Kisses," "Climbing Up the Ladder
of Love" and "Alabama Stomp," as well as
the standard catalog and the motion picture
music, which has long been an important part
of Robbins-Engel activities.

the past six weeks for exploitation. They are
'"Sam, the Old Accordion Man," "He's the Last
Word," "At Sundown" and "If You See Sally."
The additional number to these Feist releases
is a song from the pens of L. Wolfe Gilbert
and Fred Rich, called "I Still Believe in You."
