SONG HIT/
XTO visitor to Broadway, passing through the
^ theatrical district these days, fails to be im-
pressed with the huge pictorial sign on the
Criterion Theatre, announcing the new Para-
mount feature film, "Wings," narrating a
romance of the air in the World War. The
score for this photoplay has been published by
the Sam Fox Publishing Co., New York and
Cleveland, and was composed by J. S. Zam-
ecnik, who has written many numbers in the
Fox catalog, as well as many folios of inci-
dental music for motion pictures, which have
been highly successful.
The theme song of the score, also called
"Wings," has been published by the Fox house
in fox-trot form and a consistent sale of the
sheet music and orchestrations of this number
has already been reported. As soon as the
B.-oadway run of this "screen epic of the air,"
as it is termed by the photoplay magazine, is
completed, the picture will be shown through-
out the country at popular prices and a tie-up
will be possible for music dealers in whose
cities it is playing. Mr. Fox is confident that
the score itself will be an excellent "plug" for
the song, "Wings," if music stores are alive to
the opportunity of displaying the sheet music
in their windows.

Two New Music Books
"Arranging for the Modern Dance Orchestra"
is considered the standard book on this sub-
ject. In fact, it is unique in being the only book
ever written to give a complete exposition of
the methods used by modern orchestrators in
making dance arrangements. Arthur Lange is
one of the best-known musicians in this field
and has been responsible for the arrangement
of hundreds of nation-wide hits. His book has
had a wide sale in this country and abroad and
its acquisition by the Robbins Music Corp. adds
another valuabte item to its catalog.
Arthur Lange's "Arranging for Modern Dance
Orchestra" and Michael Pingitore's "Self-In-
structor for Tenor Banjo" Now Distributed
by Robbins Music Corp.
Two important publications, bearing on dance
music, have been taken over for distribution by
the Robbins Music Corp., New York, and will
be available shortly through this company. The
works arc "Arranging for the Modern Dance
Orchestra," by Arthur Lange, and Michael
Pingitore's "Self-Instructor for the Tenor
Banjo." Michael Pingitore is the featured ban-
joist with the Paul Whiteman Orchestra and is
conceded to be one of the greatest banjoists in
the country. Certainly, few men are as well
qualified to write a method for tenor banjo as
Michael Pingitore and this work, which hereto-
fore has been published by Wm. L. Lange, has
had a wide sale.
Jack Mills Publishes
New "Baltimore" Dance
The new "Artists and Models" show, which
opens this month in the Winter Garden in New
York, is featuring a dance called the "Balti-
more," which promises to rival the "Charleston"
and "Black Bottom" of previous seasons. Like
its popular predecessor, it is danced to a song
in the show by the same title.
