William Wiemann Begins
Ager, Yellen & Bornstein
Pacific Coast Trip
Road Representative of Edward B. Marks Co.
Carrying Fine Catalog to the Dealers
Will Have Charge of Special Promotion De-
partment of Weil-Known Publishing Firm
William Wiemann, sales manager of the Ed-
ward B. Marks Music Co., New York, started
August 1 on his first trip of the new season
and will proceed to the Pacific Coast returning
about Thanksgiving. Mr. Wiemann was accom-
panied by his wife, formerly Miss Tina Mosko-
witz, for many years private secretary to E. B.
Marks, and the trip following their recent mar-
riage will serve as a honeymoon.
Among the new features being carried by
Mr. Wiemann in his brief case this season are
the new musical monologues and new boy and
girl musical duets; the Berni Barbour "Series
of Six New Spirituals"; a specially arranged
melody of the famous Marks' old-timers; ten
new film works for organ and piano; a splen-
did new series of school orchestra music, and
the pick of foreign music, musical books and
agency items of every description.
The popular catalog as exploited this year by
Mr. Wiemann is being limited to half a dozen
really fine songs, each characterized by some-
thing individual and appealing. These include
"Slow River," "A Kiss Before the Dawn,"
"Sugar Foot Strut," "You Said Good-Night,"
"Silver Song Bird," and the more-popular-than-
ever "My Little Nest of Heavenly Blue." He is
also selling the hit numbers from three new
musical shows including Mamie Smith's Revue,
as well as scores of copies in every arrangement
of Myddleton's "Down South" which seems to
be on the verge of a tremendous revival. Mr.
Wiemann's trips are always doubly valuable to
his firm in that in addition to selling everything
in sight he manages to find time to arrange
effective tie-ups with record dealers, picture
houses, dance orchestras, etc.
Saul Bernheim, one of the best known men
in the orchestra field, has just joined the organ-
ization of Ager, Yellen & Bornstein, Inc., New
York, and has been placed in charge of a special
promotion department of this house. Mr. Bern-
heim, who is known to his friends in the pub-
lishing and orchestra fields as Saul Bernie, was
connected with Leo Feist, Inc., for an extended
period and has done promotion work from time
to time for several other large publishers. He
will direct a newly mapped-out campaign, which
Ager, Yellen & Bornstein have laid out for their
new catalog, and it is expected that he will
develop many orchestral successes. Mr. Bern,
heim has predicted a wide vogue for "Are
You Happy?" and "Ain't It a Grand and Glori-
ous Feeling?" late releases of the firm.

New Officers Elected
for Tams-Witmark
H. H. Bowman Elected President and Sargent
Aborn Vice-President
The board of directors of the Tams-Witmark
Music Library Consolidation announced last
week the election of new officers, following the
probating of the will of the late Arthur W.
Tarns, who died on June 25. By the recent ac-
tion of the board the $2,000,000 business is
virtually taken over by H. H. Bowman, of Har-
risburg, Pa., and Sargent Aborn, of New York,
who has been managing director of the Tams-
Witmark organization since the merger of the
two concerns in January, 1925. Mr. Bowman
was elected president and Mr. Aborn vice-presi-
dent.
Both he and Mr. Aborn have been actively
interested in the Tams-Witmark organization
for several years and both were instrumental
in bringing about the merger. Mr. Aborn was
for many years a producer of grand and comic
opera.
In addition to the immense volume of printed
and manuscript music, the costume department
of the concern covers acres of floor space at 318
West Forty-sixth street and furnishes equip-
ment for stock companies, motion picture con-
cerns and amateur and professional perfor-
mances all over the country.
