the following records are the
recordworld
SINGLE PICKOF THE WEEK
Sinatra gets into the singalong swing -along mood and adds chorus. A sum-mer breezy outing for him. Tune offersadvice to would-be lovers (and coin-cidentally has same subject matter asthis week's sleeper. Is there a trend?).Disk, of course, is Reprise 0373.
SLEEPEROF THE WEEK
This slice reunites Mathis with song-writer Robert Allen, who pennedMathis' "It's Not For Me to Say" and"Chances Are," to name a couple.Together they make sweet musicagain and have created what shouldbe a big click. (Mercury 72432.)
ALBUMOF THE WEEK
The scene change noted in the albumtitle refers to Perry's trip to Nashvillefor his first recording session in thatlocality. The relaxed crooner joinedwith such relaxed types as ChetAtkins, the Anita Kerr Quartet, FloydCramer, Pete Drake, Grady Martin andBoots Randolph to put together a
most relaxing and wonderful packagewith a slight country western twang."Dream On, Little Dreamer," others.It's RCA Victor LPM 3396; LSP 3396.

2 - Way English Traffic CurtailedLONDON - Two-way traffic
between the states and Englandfor musicians has been curtailedfor a bit, according to an agree-ment reached last week betweenthe British Musicians Unionand the American Federationof Musicians.
Existing contracts will not beaffected, however.
The AF of M requested thetemporary ban because they feelthat English groups of late(through their agents) havetaken advantage of the book-ings in the states by exceedingthe performing dates allowedthem on their union permits.
The announcement was madeby Harry Francis, assistant sec-retary of the British union, whoreported that the AF of M hadmade the request. He stated thatif the ban is lifted within a fewdays it will have little effect onthe exchange of talent, but as alonger ban will create financialhardship among the more pop-ular groups.
He also felt record saleswould be affected.
`Until Clearer Understanding'He said that the ban will re-
main in force until a "clearerunderstanding of the exchangeagreement" could be reachedwith the promoters.
Francis said that the unionban had no connection with therecent refusal by American im-migration authorities to let
Ling Appoints 3 At MillsNEW YORK-Bernard Kal-
ban has been named Managerof the Mills Music educa-tional department, WarrenLing, Vice -President and Gen-eral Manager, announced. Kal-ban replaces Don Malin wholeft to assume the educationalpost at E. B. Marks MusicCorp.
With Mills Music since 1960,Kalban moves up from his ad-vertising -promotion role there.Prior to 1960 he performed inexecutive capacity for HansenPublications, Inc., also servinga previous hitch at Mills.
Ling also named two impor-tant additions to the Mills Mu-sic executive staff with the ap-pointment of Samuel Ruben-stein as Controller and Law-rence Lighter, attorney, tolegal and special administra-tive duties. Lighter moves overfrom SESAC where he per-formed similar tasks. Graduateof New York University Schoolof Law, he majored in copy-right law, writing a graduatepaper on "Record Piracy."
Rubenstein resigned his po-sition as Controller of Peter
Pan Industries to accept thepresent appointment and willassume complete financial re-sponsibilities for the musicfirm. He is an accounting grad-uate of City College of NewYork.
All three execs will reportdirectly to Ling. These markthe first important changes inMills Music personnel sincepurchase by Utilities and In-dustries Corp. Mills MusicTrust units are now beingtraded over-the-counter.
Merc Vocal TrendCHICAGO-Vocal groups and
vocalists were the trend thisweek, when Mercury Recordsinked four new acts to theirroster.
VP in charge of Sales KennyMyers pointed out that all Aand R offices of the firm wererepresented in the signings,with the Hollywood office bring-ing in the Lively Set, the Mid-west A and R wing comingthrough with the Chelfontesand the east bringing out theSpectrums and Lyn Roman.
some British performers enterthe states.
The union move was promptedin part, according to Americansources, by British performersappearing on impromptu localTV programs and club dates,thereby possibly denying Amer-ican musicians employment.
One of the most recent artistsaffected by the immigration banwas British jazzist Kenny Ball,who was denied a working visa."Kenny Ball's ban will meanthat Louis Armstrong will haveto shorten his trip to Britain,"Mr. Francis said. Armstrongwas to have arrived in LondonMay 30 and leave June 8. Thefirst part of his visit, until June3, was in exchange for the Ani-mals. That part will be allowedto stand, since the Animal plansare unchanged.
American spokesmen feel thatthe union ban is primarily ashow of strength and will berescinded shortly.

TV from RecordNEW YORK- A new system
whereby television pictures plusmusic and voice can be playedby record has been perfectedby Westinghouse.
The corporation unveiled thenew process, called "Phonovid,"last week. Dr. William E.Shoupp, vice president for re-search at Westinghouse, saidthat up to 400 still picturesand 40 minutes of sound canbe recorded on two sides of a12 -inch record that the com-pany has tagged a "videodisc."
Right now the record -TVcombine is priced at $10,000.
Describing the operation ofthe new process, Dr. Shouppstressed, "The record is notjust an audio recording thattriggers pictures from a slideprojector. Both the audio sig-nal and the video signal arepresent in the grooves of therecord and both are pickedup by the phonograph needle."
The corporation foreseesPhonovid as a new audio-visualsystem for classroom instruc-tion, industrial and militarytraining, vocational educationand sales presentations.
The record, played on an ordi-nary turntable could be"shown," Dr. Shoupp mentioned,on any number of televisionreceivers in a classroom orthroughout an entire building.
In time, of course, althoughDr. Shoupp made no specula-tion, "Phonovid" would seem alikely prospect for the consumermarket on a wider scale. Whenthe price comes down therewould seem to be no stoppingthe possibilities of the processfor recording.

Lincoln Chase Clicks Via ShirleyEllis Waxings, 'New Sound'
BY DAVE FINKLENEW YORK - Come on,
everybody,/I said now let'splay a game./I'll bet I canmake a rhyme/Out of anybody'sname./Lincoln!/Lincoln, Lin-coln, Bo Bincoln.
Lincoln Lincoln Bo Bincolnstands for Lincoln Chase whopenned "The Name Game" forShirley Ellis to sing on theCongress label and therebycarry the twosome (or three-some) to their second tremen-dous joint single success (thefirst, of course, was Congress'"Nitty Gritty").
Lincoln and Shirley '*-erejust about to join the pickClark Caravan for four Weeksof playing the name gamethroughout the mid -west whenRecord World spoke to themlast week. Both were excitedover the success of "The NameGame" and its follow-up "TheClap Pat Song" and were equal-ly enthusiastic about their nextsingle, which they refused todiscuss at any length. Shirleywould only say, "If you thinkyou were scratching your headover the last two . . ."
Chase said he was particu-larly pleased over the currentclicks far a couple of diversereasons. The first is that hefeels he is establishing his"new sound, my new beat" thatfirst got the public tapping itsfeet with "Nitty Gritty." Heexplained that the beat de-pended upon dividing eachmeasure of music into eighthsand then accentuating certaineighths in each successive bar.
Chase has been using hisbeat as "the solidifying factor"for each of Shirley's songs andwill continue to do so. He willalso continue to use the ideaof games for a while, becausehe feels the fun of playing agame attracts kids and the"nostalgia" connected withchildren's pastimes attractsadults.
Shirley certainly won't object."Lincoln has made my life soeasy," she says. "I hardly haveto work at all when I get infront of an audience. The audi-ence participation is built intothe songs and people love tosing them." (Lincoln and Shir-ley spend a lot of time clappatting each other on the back
for their contributions to theiract. For instance, Lincolnstates frequently that the ideafor the "Name Game" camefrom Shirley.)
Another reason Chase ishappy over the "Name Game"click is due to a reward thatcame totally unexpected. Itseems that various Boards ofEducation across the countryhave contacted him to say that,in classes where retarded chil-dren are taught, the "NameGame" has been used withgreat success to teach childrento follow directions-a normal-ly difficult process.
Chase suspects that the beathas a hypnotic effect of somesort under which the childrencan be guided more easily. Heplans to do some research onthe subject shortly in conjunc-tion with education organiza-tions.
A third reason Chase ispleased with current activityis that it means his name isbecoming more important, hiscredits are growing, his bankaccount is expanding and hecan now move on to workingwith new personalities underhis recently formed L. Chase,Inc. banner. Although Chaseplans to continue appearingwith Shirley and strengthen hisbilling in the act, he said thatShirley is sufficiently estab-lished so that he doesn't needto devote himself to her fulltime.
For a couple of years he'sbeen keeping his eye on someperformers in whom he sees agreat deal of potential and heexpects to sign them to exclu-sive L. Chase, Inc. contractssoon at which time he will be-gin building them from theground up as he did with Shir-ley over the past five years.
Chase also plans to continuehis association with Congressand Al Gallico's publishinghouse because he's been verypleased with the way thingshave worked out for all con-cerned. "The 'Name Game' sin-gle may have fallen off thecharts," he said, "but it's stillselling well and will probablydo so for a long time since itis like a game."
To which can only be added:Banana Fanna Fo Fincoln,/FeeFi Mo Mincoln,/Lincoln!

Umbrellas Aren't So BadHOLLYWOOD-Consider the particular problem of the little
station in an outlying area that is sitting under the umbrella ofa large city or metropolis.
In most cases these stations have a very difficult time becausethe big stations in the big cities have the money to buy the talentto make them sound better. Usually their signals are all -encom-passing, so when ratings are taken they are for the metropolitanarea. Since the little station's signal frequently reaches only theoutlying parts of the city in which he is located, his chance forshowing up on the metropolitan survey is slight.
With only a small chance for important ratings and with nomoney to buy big talent, the plight of the littlestation seems hopeless. But such is not alwaysthe case. Several stations actually have takenadvantage of their size, and have gone after theratings supposedly owned by the metropolitanstations. The fact is, most large stations areencumbered with large staffs, policies and pol-itics. That often makes them move more slowlyon important issues, and occasionally it makesthem a little less sincere or friendly with theiraudiences.
If the little station \ plays very carefully (andhonestly) to the local audience it knows it reaches, and offersthem a simply designed format that is not cluttered up with allkinds of gimmicks, he can acquire a loyal audience that can meanbig ratings for him in his own city. He can successfully competewith the big station, and win. He can also do very well with thelocal sponsors, the downtown merchants who are never called onby the big stations and who could not afford their rates if theywere.
As an example, KLIV in San Jose boosted its ratings from athree to a 17 simply by being well ahead of the San Franciscostations with their records. KWIZ is making strong strides inSanta Ana by claiming the world's record for playing re -boundsounds. The response has been so good for them they've ordereda rating taken (which will not include Los Angeles).
It's not easy to make money under an umbrella, but with alittle creativity and optimism it is possible.

It sure is pleasant whensome of your friends make itbig but still remain nice peo-ple.

Porter TunesUncovered
NEW YORK - If ColePorter's song has ended, itseems that new melodies lingeron.
Dr. Albert Sirmay, chief edi-tor of Chappell and Co., Por-ter's publishing affiliation, re-ported last week that 100 un-published Porter tunes havebeen found in his WaldorfTowers apartment since thecomposer's death last Oct.
The stockpile of songs, writ-ten for the most part forshows or musicals over theyears from 1924-55, shouldprovide enough material, Sir-may surmised, for a couple ofBroadway shows, although noplans have been made as yet."I would call the material arich musical heritage," Sirmaywent on. "There are dozens ofexcellent songs."
Sirmay refused to estimatethe value of the songs and in-deed, what with the royaltiesthat could accrue, the tunesmay be invaluable. Currentlythe Porter estate receivesabout $100,000 annually inroyalties.
The discovery of the Portersongs is reminiscent of the dis-covery a couple of years agoof a Jerome Kern cache thatincluded songs enough for atleast one full Broadway score.It was announced at that timethat lyricist Dorothy Fieldswas going to provide lyrics fora show. Nothing has happenedsince, however.
Limn Ww-DqvilBY ALAN FREEMAN
I see, you've gone about yourdaily stateside duties over thepast week, absolutely convincedthat on opening this edition ofRecord World you wouldn't haveto waste valuable time trying todecipher the complexities thatconfront you at this momentevery week. Well, you're in fora shock: it's me again, and . . .
yes, I DID survive that motorrally I told you about "the lasttime" (the Rolling Stones wouldapprove of my phraseology).
In fact, although I haven'tbeen notified of the final results,I can tell you that out of 42entries, only 10 of the cars fin -
Alan Freeman ished, and only two cars man-aged to negotiate the first intricate section as layed down by therules. This could only have been achieved through impeccablenavigation. I humbly add that my role in the rally was that of. . . navigator!
Mind you, I've always been of the opinion that the Britishwere ones for "fair play," but I must say that I thought it justa bit too much, when on dashing to read a sign post in thecourse of my navigational capacity, I found that it had eithergone on vacation for the week -end, had a date for the nightwith some other sign post or was perhaps driving another carin the rally itself. 'However, it wasn't there, and I'm of theopinion that a signpost minus the sign is somewhat comparableto Haydn's "Unfinished Symphony!"
Accolades for TonyNow, may I perhaps be the first to tell you that it's a case of
unfinished excitement here in Great Britain over Tony Bennett'srecent short concert tour in Manchester and London. Everyconcert was a sellout, and to give you some idea, even I (Mr.Navigation of 1965) had the greatest difficulty in getting onetiny seat. I've always thought that Frank Sinatra was the great-est recipient of applause from a splendid British audience, butI think even Frank would have been warmed by the tumul-tuous cheering that greeted Tony every time he threatened tostop for that vital facet to life called breath!
I'll tell you what, though, you'd better hold on to him whenhe gets back, because I've heard a nasty rumor that next timeTony comes over here, he's gonna be kidnapped, kept here andyou'll never see him again!
Meets KHJersI almost forgot to tell you of my meeting here with Mike
Rollins and Sam Riddle of KHJ-TV in Hollywood. They cameover to film people like the Rolling Stones, the Cannon Brothers,Marianne Faithful, Sandi Shaw, Adam Faith, the Zombies, Her-man's Hermits, the Kinks, Manfred Mann and Georgie Fame.I believe the show goes on May 14.
Sam told me he was off to film some special material inHawaii for his "9th Street West" and "Hollywood a Go Go"shows, and you'll be able to see it all sometime in July on KHJ.
Well, The Beatles are still No. 1 . . . Roger Miller's at No. 2with "King of the Road" . . . The Animals have gone to No. 5with "Bring It On Home to Me" . . . The Seekers have goneto No. 12 with "A World of Our Own" . . . Francoise Hardy getsnear that Top 20 with "All Over the World," and I wouldn't beat all surprised if your Shirley Ellis is on the way to a bigBritish smash with "The Clapping Song."
Well, I must go, I guess. Where you ask? How should I know?Incidentally, have you got any old signposts you don't want?

Fontana Group OnNew York Bender!
Wayne, Mindbenders Are Unique:Have Label's 1st No. 1 US Hit
BY DOUG McCLELLAND
NEW YORK-Wayne Fon-tana and the Mindbenders brokeit up in the states recently,although for a while it didn'tlook as if they were going toget out of Liverpool.
"The American Embassy inLiverpool didn't think we were`unique' enough," Wayne said,referring to a problem occas-ionally faced by the abundanceof British acts currently anx-ious to get into the U.S. Whatturned the trick? "A very nicelady at the Embassy. She wasin charge and liked us," the in-gratiating Wayne said with awink. "We got our visa."
So that's how it's done!And, actually, the boys do
have at least one unique accom-plishment of no mean importon the record industry scene:they have provided Fontana'sfirst No. 1 record in America,"The Game of Love," also thename of their LP.
The Manchester -raised boys'American trip was "mainly pro-motional," it was learned. "Ouragent, Danny Betesh, is alsohere negotiating for a motionpicture for us in which we'llnot only sing but act."
The ShutterbugsWayne and his 'benders had
also become shutterbugs uponarrival in America, causingMercury -Fontana Records offi-cials some consternation. Soonafter they had arrived, the boysleft their hotel suite for anostensibly brief browsing visitto a nearby camera shop andwere several hours getting back.
The diskery folk were in anuproar and were just about toring up the bobbies when thegroup showed, with several newcameras.
"Look," said one of the'benders to the Record Worldinterviewer. "Wayne's an expertat space photography."
What's that, was the naturalreply?
One of the lads grabbed upan example of Wayne's polaroidhandiwork and proffered it. Thephoto, if that's what it was,was all white. "We have themin black, too," said the 'bender,who was also a bit of a 'breaker.
Freddieing on FilmWayne was already oblivious
to any further conversation. He

had freddied his way through apile of exposed film to a cor-ner, re -loading his camera forsome more observations of spacewhich in consistency more thanmade up for what they lackedin variety.
And the cluster of teen-agegirls outside the group's roomswas more than thrilled to haveblack and whites of their idols.("I got Wayne! No it's Eric!Or is it Ric?" "I got Bob!"Etc.)
They were extremely amiablelads, although they did do aslight bit of grousing becausethe "Shindig" TVer had justshown a Fontana-Mindbendersperformance they felt had dated,since it had been taped manymonths before.
Wayne Fontana and theMindbenders will be back inthe states in July to take morepictures - and, they hope, tomake one, in which they'll domore than take up space.

Country StarsOver BroadwayNEW YORK-Representatives
of the Grand Ole Opry set upshop at the Paramount last weekand worked like beavers to en-tertain what were disappoint-ingly small crowds.
Smoothly emceed by RecordWorld's Ed Hamilton and star-ring Hank Snow, Flatt andScruggs, Johnny Wright, KittyWells, Ruby Wright, Bill Phil-lips, Dave Dudley, Dick Curlessand Juanita Rose, the show fea-tured the fetching brand ofoften sentimental, often hard-bitten and cynical country mu-sic that is an integral expres-sion of American moods.
The performers all sang andpranced through their stints(usually about four or five newand old tunes) with easy humorand performed as if the theaterwas jampacked - which musthave been difficult for perform-ers who are used to havingthings just that way as a mat-ter of course.
A better planned promotioncampaign might have made thedifference between low grossesand more copious ones, and thatidea should probably be keptin mind for future Paramountshowcasings.
