MONEY MADNESS — Apparently cash is still radio's big prize motivator as we see here with KFRC's Rick Shaw (above left) awarding $10,000 from their "Visible Vault" promotion. Bottom left, "WQX1's Great Atlanta Bank Caper" found

their winner getting five minutes in an Atlanta bank and all the money she could carry out, up to $10,000. Bottom right is WOKY/Milwaukee's winning family of $10,000 from their vault promotion. All the winner had to do was push the correct buttons for the combination which automatically opened the safe and sounded the alarm buzzer.

LETTERS: The Top 40 Clock Just Doesn't Tick Anymore

Editor's Note: The following is a letter from DICK KENT. rice president in charge ofprogramming for WI.AC/NASH VILLE

One of the most astounding occurences in today's broadcasting industry is the fact that contemporary Rock 'n Roll radio has lost its audience share during the past few years. This has been noticed by all but dealt with by none. Everyone agrees changes must be made but no one seems to know what should be done or the extent modifications would be noticed in the ratings if they were made.

Lack of changes are due to two reasons... want of leadership in programming circles and need of programming knowledge in leadership circles! Many programmers haven't a format to follow Top 40 that is capable of reaching and satisfying a demanding audience. Then many programmers today are not permitted to do what they believe will combat fragmentation which would allow their stations to regain or hold its market dominance because they do not have the authority to carry out their innovations. This is the programmers fault.., a simple matter of lack of communication with individuals that make or break a top radio station.

If a programmer cannot communicate with the individuals or com-mittees whose approval is necessary to implement what he feels is necessary — how can be expect to communicate with the audience and

convince them it's a sound idea? If a programmer cannot communicate with his news department

through his news director, cannot communicate and inspire his air per-sonalities, cannot communicate with his production director and sales manager, then he obviously cannot convince the audience around him that his station is worth more listening time than other stations in his

coverage area! Therefore, it is quite obvious the answer is derived from all the re-

search one reads about. There are some concrete facts surfacing. The implementation of the methodology originating from this research is in great peril if the people involved cannot communicate within.., staff meetings, management meetings and planning sessions.

Everyone tells you the Top 40 Clock doesn't work anymore. Everyone has been saying it for the past eight years. Well, everyone is right! It doesn't! The answer is manifest... if it doesn't work, fix it! Just remember —

when you fix a clock, you always find the problem is in the working parts —inside—a necessary part is either worn out, needs lubricating or is binding against some other working part — stopping both parts

from performing their required function. Dick Kent

WAPE/Jacksonville's "Big APE" is all smiles as he congratulates the winner of the station's "1st Annual Skimpy Bikini" contest. The contest was part of

the festivities during WAPE's 89C movie night at a local drive-in. All cars with official Big Ape window decals got in for the low price. Over 1000 listeners showed up for the special midnight showing. The scantily clad

young lady shown here received $100. while WAPE PD John Long scanned the crowd for possible indecent exposure-minded policemen.

BUSINESS NEWS BUSINESS NEWS

ADVERTISERS LIABILITY FOR RADIO BILLS A proposed plan by the INSTITUTE OF BROADCAST FINANCE would make advertisers liable for payment of un-

paid bills to broadcast media when their advertising agency went bankrupt. This plan would only apply if the advertiser had not yet paid their agency for the spots. The Institute said that it expects many broadcasters to include this plan in their contracts starting next year.

NLRB ON UNION ELECTIONS The NATIONAL LABOR RELATIONS BOARD has ruled that employer's pay raises issued after a union loses an

employees' election may impair the worker's freedom to choice of a new election. One such case occured when raises were given while a union's objections to an election were still pending. In a separate case, the Board also ruled that one firm who gave coffee break and phone privilege benefits was out

of line, since a union had demanded recognition, and the benefits were awarded before elections could be held.

GOVERNMENT ON MATERNITY BENEFITS The U.S. SUPREME COURT has ruled that employers must provide maternity benefits that are equal to disability

payments to their employees. Many collective bargaining agreements do not allow for the full disability sum pay-ment, but nevertheless, the federal government holds firm that payment should be equal.

XMAS PACKAGE LIMITS The POSTAL SERVICE reminds customers of their limits on package weights, especially applicable during the

holiday mailing season. 84 inches in combined length and width and 40 pounds for parcels mailed between the 5000 biggest cities in the 48 continental states is the limit for packages; and 100 inches and 70 pounds for airmail and pack-

ages sent to smaller towns, and Alaska and Hawaii.

FDA HALTS SALE OF SLEEPING AID The FOOD & DRUG ADMINISTRATION has ordered a subsidiary of NABISCO INC. to stop distribution of their

sleeping aid "Sominex 2." The FDA also asked the company to recall stock already distributed. The drug contains an

antihistamine which, according to the Administration, is only legally available in prescribed drugs. The company stated that the withdrawal of Sominex 2 does not affect the use of their standard sleeping aid, Sominex.

FCC SETS DECEMBER SCHEDULE The FCC's schedule for this month includes some hot topics for radio, one of which is a scheduled meeting to discuss

whether or not stations which turn format control to outside services are meeting their community responsibilities. The clear channel assignment discussions will be brought up this month, held over from November.

EVIDENCE WITHDRA WN BY FCC Reversing a ruling made by law judge ARTHUR GLADSTON. the FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION

has voted to put a lid on information concerning stations whose licenses are up for hearing. The Commission cited that certain information about these stations would "interfere with enforcement proceedings." Gladston's earlier decision gave KIKX/Tucson permission to inspect files to identify witnesses that would be called during their license

hearing.

FCC OPENS UP MORE FILES The FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION has set up a system whereby people can obtain records not

previously open to the public under Freedom of Information guidelines. The FCC noted that the documents must be

described so that staff can locate them, and that requesters should state how much of a "search fee" they would be able to pay. If all records are not located completely when the stated amount of payment is reached, the requester would be notified. Requests for FCC records would be directed to the executive director of the Commission. These new guidelines would most likely make a wealth of information more open to broadcasters and citizen's groups.

GOVERNMENT TO DECIDE ON DRUG ADS The JUSTICE DEPARTMENT has filed a landmark antitrust suit against the AMERICAN PHARMACEUTICAL

ASSOCIATION and one State Association who forbid their members from advertising prices of prescription drugs.

The Justice Department seeks the support of U.S. courts to cite the practice as illegal. If this case is won by the government, other professional groups, such as lawyers and doctors may see clear to advertising their prices.

IRS WANTS EMPLOYERS INFORMATION In an attempt to keep a tighter rein on employees' claims of personal exemptions, the INTERNAL REVENUE

SERVICE has proposed that employers be required to let the IRS know if employees don't supply valid certificates

substantiating their claims. Comments on the proposal are being taken by the IRS.

BIG AD PUSH FOR CHRYSLER'S VOLARE CHRYSLER's new small car entry. the VOLARE, will be backed up by the heaviest advertising push that Chrysler

has ever done for any line. "The new small car with the accent on comfort" ads will feature SERGIO FRANCHI,

ELLA FITZGERALD and ROBERTA FLACK in radio spots.

VW WILL GO IT ALONE IN U.S. VOLKSWAGEN OF GERMANY has apparently given up their search for a U.S. partner for a car assembly plant

here-but did not shelve the plans completely, and will study the possibility of venturing into American manufacturing by themselves. Volkswagen had conferred with both CHRYSLER CORP. and AMERICAN MOTORS on the possiblity

of a joint manufacturing venture.

RETAIL CHAIN PROFITS UP DRAMATICALLY F.W. WOOLWORTH announced their quarter net income gains of a dramatic 111 %, along with SEARS ROEBUCK

& CO., who announced a 13% increase in income for the same period. Other chains had announced earlier that their

sales trend was upward. showing a possible industry recovery from slow sales during the past year.

GAS MILEAGE KEY FOR SUBARU Using their good EPA mileage as the basis for interest, SUBARU OF AMERICA will put out $1 million in advertising

budget for their models beginning this month. Over 100 markets will be used for radio spot buys. The company's

THE FCC [So You Can Understand It]

PROGRAM CLASSIFICATIONS

For many years Country stations have attempted to use such shows as "The Song Of Faith" to satisfy, at least in part, the stations' "other" programming commitments referring to the record as Religious material. Album rock and other contemporary stations have taken up the cudgel to ask why certain songs having social significance cannot be classified as "Public Affairs" programming, i.e., "Respect Yourself" by the Staple Singers, "Signs" by the Five Man Electrical Band, and "War" by Edwin

Starr. As the Commission's Rules are presently constituted a particular'offer-

ing" must first qualify as a program. The Commission's Renewal and Trans-fer Division has a general unwritten rule that in order for any "offering" to qualify as a program it must be in excess of 60 seconds and more nearly akin to 120 and/or 180 seconds. The traditional program that falls into this category is a vignette or other brief statement touching upon social problems, etc. The traditional examples of Public Affair programming are editorials, round table discussions, forums, panel discussions and similar "talk" programming concerning the discussion and/or comment of local, national and international affairs. To date, the Commission has re-jected any attempt to equate recorded music with its present definition of Public Affairs programming. On the other hand, there is a movement under-foot at the Commission to substantially liberalize the Public Affairs definition by encompassing many programs that traditionally have qualified

for the "all other" category but which really provided service to the community and should qualify as Public Affairs, i.e., Bulletin Board,

Trading Post, Swap Shop, Hitchhiker News, etc. R&R suggests that anyone having suggestions as respects the Commis-

sion's troublesome "Public Affair' category write directly to Richard Shiben, Chief, Renewal & Transfer Division, Broadcast Bureau, Federal .Communications Commission, Washington, D.C. 20554, setting forth specific reform suggestions. Since Mr. Shiben and his Staff are undertaking a survey of present non-entertainment categories with an eye toward liberal-izing traditional standards, practical suggestions are indeed in order. How-ever, until this needed reform is brought about "The Song of Faith" and

"War" do not qualify as Public Affairs programming.

BASKIN-ROBBINS CELEBRATES 31st B'DAY A record $1.3 million will be spent on advertising by BASKIN-ROBBINS ice

cream chain next year, to celebrate their 31st birthday. The dollar figure repre-sents a $1/2 million increase in spending, kicked off with the theme "Thank

You America, for Thirty-One-derful Years." The first quarter of advertising will feature this theme, followed by a little league baseball giveaway promo-tion. In mid-August, advertising for the variety of ice cream flavors offered

will begin and a final media push for ice cream deserts will wind up the year in November. 30 second 'TV spots, newspaper ads and backup radio buys in 96 markets will make up the base for the push.

SUNKIST PUSHES THIER FRUIT SUNKIST will spend a half million dollars more than last year's budget in

their new advertising. Ads for Sunkist Oranges will be placed in broadcast media, with radio and TV tie ins in over 20 markets, as well as network TV

buys.

RADIO PUSH FOR HYATT HOTELS HYATT HOTELS will base their 1976 advertising campaign on national

and regional radio buys, along with print backup. Featuring spots that talk

about Hyatt's new and different features that guests can find, 60 second spots will air in Top 10 markets, with regional radio spots stressing advan-tages of some of the individual Hyatt Hotels.

Late News

SONNY & CHER TOGETHER AGAIN Apparently lawyers are putting the

final touches on an agreement which pact Sonny & Cher together again on CBS TV. Negotiations have been going

on for some time. after Cher's CBS show started to slip dramatically in Nielsen ratings. Rumblings were also heard that Cher's executive producer, George Schlatter would be removed from the show. First show of the new Sonny & Cher will be after the first of the year.

An absolutely wonderful album that is getting rases from the AOR stations that are already on it. The production. instrumentation. harmonies, and material are shining examples of taste, class.

HAROLD MELVIN

Harold Melvin & The Blue Holes

Wake Up Everybody Featuring Theodore Pendergrass &

Sharon Paige including:

To Be FreeTo Be Who We Are Keep On lovin' You/Don't Leave Me This Way You Know How To Make Me Feel So Good

I'm Searching For A Love

Harold and The Hluenotes have put together thei crooning ement. This collection ranges from smooth soulful ballads III I ootstomping pooerhouse RAO cookers. "Don't Leave Me This Way" is the blockbuster that should gel lots of AOR airplas -You Kilo. How To Make Me Feel So Good" and "I'm Searching For A love" show-case the feeling and harmonies that this group perpetrate so well. (Phil Intl

TIME FOR ANOTHER CE

The "How Long" boys scored an AOR airplay smash with their first album and this group o smooth flowing easy to program songs should maintain their winning ways. They ride on a pace that is mellow, but not too laid back. Strong key-boards. guitars, and voices. "I Think It's Gonna Last" "I'm A Man" "Message To You" and "No Future In Your Eyes" are standouts. (Anchor)

MELANIE

Melanie has some kind of unique talent that has,

been out of the spotlight long enough to make it al refreshing as it once was This album features a matured artist and much stronger musical back-drops than earlier veniures "Perce;se It" and "I've Got My Mojo Working" are winners. The medley of You Can't Hurry Love" and "Mama" should bring It all home. (NeIghorhood)

When you want a good instrumental album you can always depend on Tom Scott to come through. Every once in a while he devotes his highly re-spected talent to his own album and, as in this case the results are special. Surrounded by some of the best instrumentalists he weaves a tasty blend of commercial toe tapping and mellow listening jazz. "Dirty Old Man" "New York Connection"

"Midtown Rush" and "Yflu're Gonna Need Me" are goodies. (Ode)

HENRY McCULLOUGH

This album is marked by variety. Every time you hear a cut and try to get a handle on Henry's musical forte, lie surprise, you on the next tune. Ile explores a bit of Blues. you. Country. Rock and Roll. and even Reggae A omits funky album. Check it out and take sour pick. (Splinter)

PRESSURE SENSITIVE RONNIE LAWS

Contains Always There • Nothing To Lose Tell Me Something Good•Mis Mary's Place

lint stuff! This is a superb jazz ensemble whose music is definitely applirable to AOR Radio "Always There" "Momma" and,, great version of "Tell Mn Something Good" are about the easiest cuts for Rockers to play. but stations that are into jazz should not overlook the rest. (Blue Note)

RANDY PIE

Much of this album can best be described as pro-

gressive disco music from Germany. but in this album the group also explores other areas. There's a bit of jazz and creative electric Instr.,-montage°. "Mich" "I Am The loker" and "Danc-

ing Shoes" are interesting (Polydor)

Chart Summary JONI exploded foul took over the

top airplay position with molly sto-llens playing iied obelit everything on the album. She is this first fitinelis recording artist to over hold the num-ber oils slot 011 this chart. NEIL is doing very well and moved up to number two, C/N had on ex-cellent week gathering even more • concentrated play. ELO and SIMON remain strong. THE BAND mild° amazing leaps and gobbled up turn-tables coast to coast. FEAT main-tained. CAT came on very strong. ROXY busted through. The album Is getting very positive station and listener reaction and looks like it will be the group's most successful to date.SPRINGSTEEN hung in there. RONSTAD7' nudged up a bit. SMITH came on like gangbusters her second week out. STARSHIP and MAC,Ihe chart veterans, had a stable week. SUPERTRAMP was the week's high-est debut. MASON picked up nicely. EW&F, BOLEN, and KAYAK made impressive debuts. PURPLE main-tained. KANSAS debuted. STYX had a healthy second week. CLARKE is hanging in there. KRAFT WEEK' and HOWE debuted. It took ICRAFTWERK a few weeks to get the airplay. but programmers are finding that listen-ers are reacting quite favorably.ROD STEWART, GARY WRIGHT, and MARSHALL TUCKER almost made the chart.

This chart is based solely on airplay

and does not attempt to fabricate a

trend. The artists in Italics are those

imceliting the most rapid gain in

airplay.

DANNY KIRWAN

This is u good time music album. light and listen' able. The former Fleetwood Mac lead vocal. guitar, and writer obviously has a lot left for his solo career and with this fine collection, he's off to u good start. "Ram lam City" leature. fancy fiddling. "Odds and Ends" "Skip A Dee Doe" and "Falling In Love With You" are fun. "Hot Summers Day" is real pretty. (DIM)

RUFUS

Chaka Is one of Mali Rocr• hottest ladles. In this outing, the group explores jazzier arrange-ments and come oil sounding guile good. Check out "live Talking" foes new direction on the now familiar tune. "Circle" and "Dance Wit Me" iire worthy of your attention jABCj

Mike Harrison, Radio & Records—

"The German power plant make their new label debut with nothing less than a masterpiece of electrical wizardry and musical discipline. Conceptually based upon their impressions of radio and all those signals in the air, the music is as haunting and relaxing as 'Autobahn'."

Walrus—

STRONGLY MERITORIOUS—"Kraftwerk harnesses electronic music bringing it in from outer space. Theirs is a major musical contribution functioning as a bridge to and from the avant garde."

Saul Smaizys, Program Director, TRIAD-WXFM— "Kraftwerk once again shows first-hand knowledge of both subtlety and power. ... Radio-Activity takes them off the highway and onto the airways."

Shelly Grafman, Program Director, KSHE St. Louis/WABX Detroit— "Kraftwerk received immediate response from the listeners. It's exceptionally innovative. In other words. 'it's incredible!' •'

A Ulf TM ORIENTED ROCK)

Perhaps the most unfortunate and dangerous thing that can happen

to anyone in the music business is to become jaded to, or worse, bored with the music. When you stop and observe how into music the consumers are, it makes you stop and think and re-evaluate your own position in the scheme of things. We've all had the experience of having people we know from outside of the industry tell us how lucky we are to get "all those free albums and concert tickets." We smuggly smile and tell them that we don't have enough room at home for all the records we get and haven't

enough time to see all the shows that we're invited to. Ironically, it was a tremendous interest and appreciation for music

that originally brought most of us into the music business. Unlike other so called professions. most of us didn't go to school or take particular courses of study to gain license to earn our livings in the manner that

we do. We just fell into it because we got close to the core, the music. Half the industry is composed of well located former groupies, no put down

intended. As you start to realize that the whole thing is a business and that

you can make money and even big money in it, the music begins to take on another meaning.Something in our minds makes it represent something

other than what it is. To the record company it becomes merchandise to be sold on the shelf, an item for marketing. To the record promoter it becomes a vehicle for vicarious success and security to be tallied by points and justified by literature. To the radio station it becomes a lure, bait to capture desired demographics to fill up a book. Meanwhile, to the artist it's blood. guts, and soul. To the consumer, it's food and spiritual

nourishment. I am not trying to be idealistic or preach. Obviously with the

neverending onslaught of new product and the pressures that we face (with never enough time to all the things expected of us) it's hard to face our former pleasure with the same open enthusiasm that we never questioned or thought of as "work." Nevertheless, the point it worthy of making because the syndrome should be resisted and kept in check.

You see. with the onset of research and convenient charts, bullets, and stat sheets to make out lives easier, we have had to depend less and less upon our ears to keep up with what's happening in music. Wouldn't it be nice if everything were so cut and dry in the music business that we never had to listen to anything to know what was going on? -

If all hit songs had the same hook, and all concerts were on pre-viewed and accepted video tape and all women liked soft music. and all men like hard music, and the best cuts were on Side 1, and there "was nothing new or innovative." and Rock and Roll were dead, all we would have to do is sit around and tax our brains by finding the proper labels

and categories to put on the beans. We put down everything for sounding the same but reject things for

being different. We underestimate the public's musical taste and capacity and then shortchange them by not leading the way. We are beginning to actually believe that there's a science to magic.

Of course, this column is not aimed at you and me. I'm certain that every record promoter reading this column has heard every bit of product that he tries to get played and ei/ery radio person has listened

to everything that he's rejected. All A&R men return phone calls because that unfamiliar name on the message may have the hit that they're always screaming they wish they could find. Every reviewer listens to every new record that comes out.

We are all cool. Seriously, those of us on the front line should try to maintain the

same openmindedness that got us involved in music years ago nd do the homework that anyone in a profession marked by change must do to be effective in a job. Otherwise. the scene will get stale. However, that staleness will only be temporary. Gardens have a way of replenishing themselves in the spring. That kid who seems so turned on by your radio

station or records or concerts will probably have your job sooner than you think.

Remember. in the world of the deaf, the one eared man is king.

CONVENTION SPEAKERS

ROBIN MITCHELL Program Director WSAI/Cineinnati

"Many stations are skewing for an audience that's not broad-based enough, and that's the main reason shares are diminishing all over the country. Everyone's chasing their tail, and the circle keeps getting smaller. Calling stores and checking the request line isn't

enough unless you've already achieved your rating goal. We have to know what the people who don't listen to us are listening for, get their attention through promotion, and prove to them that we're their kind of radio station. People of all ages are people, and that's the common denominator. Find the key to compelling people and you've got a winner!"

PETER MC LANE Program Director KIO NDes Moines "McLane's Rules of Order: 1) The listener is always

right. 2) When the listener is wrong, see Rule number

1. I have been with KIOA for 12 years, my personal

goals in radio are heading toward ownership and management ... and Buzz Bennett is not directing my next movie."

RECORDS RECORD INDUSTRY NOTES

by Candy Tusken Lots of street talk this week that the RINGO STARR/ABC RECORDS multi-

million dollar deal has hit a snag which may prevent the signing from

taking place.

We won't get to see John Denver debut in the re-make version of "Mr. Smith Goes To Washington" as actor Tom "Billy Jack" Laughlin scooped up the film rights from underneath John and apparently plans to play the title role himself...The famed team of Jon Mark and Johnny Almond (who founded the Mark/Almond Band) are re-uniting for a new album to be produced by Roy Halee for ABC Records marking their first collab-oration in two years. The twosome have written all new composition for the album scheduled for recording this month...An L.A. court has given Linda McCartney a clean slate due to her compliance to court requests that she undergo drug rehabilitation stemming from a drug- arrest. Linda has been seeing a London psychiatrist regularly and her attendence led to the court wiping out the drug charges from her record. Earlier this year, a small amount of marijuana had been found in Linda's purse when she and Paul were stopped by L.A. police for a minor traffic violation... Smokey Robinson in the studios polishing up yet. another single from his perennial selling "Quiet Storm" album with the title cut to be released

sometime next month...

ROLLER IN COURT ACTION Bay City Roller Les McKeown is on trial in Scotland for alleged

reckless driving, causing the death of an elderly woman who was killed when struck by McKeown's car last year. The charges leveled against the young musician have been countered by one line -of defense stating

that the woman kept darting in different directions when McKeown's car approached leading to the fatal accident...Kraftwerk's "Radio Activity" album was tailor-made for U.S. radio, according to the group (who care-fully monitored the airwaves on their last American tour). Said one member

-"Zee album is for zee radio people" with the electronic "music" com-posed of sound of radio band tuning, static. morse code. etc. The picture of the radio on the LP is one of the first mass-made radios distributed free in the thirties to the German people so they could hear Hitler's speeches...Rumors persist that Mick Jagger wants to play the role of the

anarchist in the best selling "Ragtime' novel being made into a movie. Others reportedly interested in the part include Bruce Springsteen and Bob Dylan...One of the oldest rockers around has to be Spirit's resident "grey panther' drummer Ed Cassidy. a young fifty-four and also father-in-law to group leader. Randy California. The re-formed band has a new single out titled "Holy Man"..,Frank Sinatra's new single "A _Baby Just Like You" is the third song written by John Denver that 'Or Blue Eyes" has recorded. Denver wrote the song for both his own son. Zachary. and Sinatra's ney, • " Anvel, Da v;•-t rtowie kicks off his global tour, spanning

RCA Records launched a football-flavored marketing "game plan" last

Direct Fi•om Duncan The 1976 Country Radio Seminar has been officially scheduled for March

19 and 20. Again this year. according to BOB MITCHELL, agenda chairman, the seminar will be held at the Airport Hilton, Nashville. The first agenda meeting will be held in Nashville next January. As the details come in. I'll pass them along to you. . . CHUCK FLOOD, who most recently was the National Country Promotion Director for Warner Bros. Records has been hired by ABC/Dot Records to head their Progressive Country division. His new position will include artist relation work with the more progresive artists on the label, like JIMMY BUFFETT, AMAZING RI1YTHM ACES and CHRIS GANTRY. Flood and I have spent alot of time talking about Progressive Country music and he is somewhat of an expert. It will be very interesting to see how far the Country-rock sound will develop in the next year or so. Obviously, ABC/Dot feels this format style will become more popular in the next year. Thus their hiring of Mr. Flood. . . Stop the presses: After an official announcement in R&R a couple weeks ago, RON NORWOOD has decided not to get out of the radio business. Norwood, who was P.D. at KGA, Spokane, had decided to go into private business in Oregon. The station made a last minute offer. Norwood is now the station's Operation Director. His position will also be for KEED, Eugene, Oregon. A station that was recently acquired by the owners of KGA. JOHN OGLE will continue as Program Director of KGA and DON KENNEDY will still be P.D. at KEED.. . TOMMY

His lady, ROBIN DADE, most recently lived in Denver, where she met Barwick while working at KERE. Our wishes for a happy life. . . (I was thinking of hav-ing a shower for Barwick. but I found out they don't give them for men. The

reason: They figure the guy's all washed up anyway.) . . Country radio is alive and winning in Bellingham, Washington. KBFW, according to the summer Pulse is overall No. 1 in the market.. . ED CHANDLER, Program Director, and FRANK LEE, Music Director of KSON, San Diego have put together a three hour BOB WILLS SPECIAL. It's for sale. For information

KERE, Denver is having a CB Radio Rally this weekend. The station will do

a remote broadcast. CB manufacturers will display their products. Plus the FCC will be there to discuss rules and regulations. . . Many stations are tying in contests with the recent success of CB songs, such as "Convoy" and "Me and Ole CB." KCKC, San Bernardino and W MC, Memphis are among a few

stations giving away CB radios. Each station takes callers to qualify for the radios. Each caller gets a sunvisor with the CB codes printed on it. Then a drawing is held for the grand prizes. The sunvisors were a promotion put

together by MGM's DAVE MACK. •

DAVE DIAMOND, former rock jock with KFRC, San Francisco and MIS. Los Angeles, has released a country single that is starting to pick up some

action in some markets. It's called "In The Heat Of A Kansas Night" on Claridge Records. The flip "Diesel Driving Daddy" is a hell of a truckin' tune.. . ABC/Dot artis ROY CLARK has signed as special guest on "The Mac Davis Christmas Special" which is scheduled on NBC December 14... Mercury's TOM T. HALL will discontinue his personal appearances for four months, starting after December 15. Hall wants to spend time finishing a book

and writing songs. He will continue to record during this time. •

Again a reminder about the R&R Convention '76 in Atlanta, February 19-22. There will be a display showcase that will feature material from different

stations. In the next few weeks look around your station for material for the display. Suggestions for your package: Anything that has your station's logo or call letters. T-shirts, window stickers, stationary, business cards, music survey, pens, pencils, rate cards, sales portfolios, etc. Send them to:

PM DUNCAN, Country Editor, RADIO & RECORDS 6430 Sunset Blvd., Suite 1221, Hollywood, Ca. 90028. Also, if you have any questions you'd like answered during the convention please take the time to send those in now. Many times, at a convention, a good question may be lost because of

a variety of reasons. This is a chance to get yours put to a panel of experts.

Finally, [recall the story of the "Lady of the Night" who was in a nightclub

one evening making her appointments. She said, "John, you can come about seven-ish, and you, George, around eight-ish, and Frank. I'll have time for you about nin-ish." She then looked around the crowded bar and said:

"Ten-lab anyone?"

UNTRY

At the Country Music Hall of Fame, MCA recording artist CON WAY TWITTY met the Russian cosmonauts who participated in the Apollo/ soyuz 'Handshake In Space.' The cosmonauts wanted to thank Conway

for the gift he had recorded for them, a Russian version of Conway's hit "Hello Darlin.' GENERAL THOMAS STAFFORD included the record among the gifts he exchanged with the cosmonauts while in space. On stage at the Grand Ole Opry in front of 4,500 people Conway presented General Stafford a carved wooden plaque inspired by the cover of his

latest album "The High Priest Of Country Music." Pictured at the event are (left to right) Alexi Leonov, Conway 'Fwitty and General Thomas

WFMB-FM in Springfield. Illinois morning personality ONE-EYED JACK.

during Country Music Month, told his listeners he would put a WFMB bumper sticker on anything his listeners would bring to the station.

Some of the items included a 102 pound turtle, a live five foot long alligator and the above-pictured nine foot rock python (which is now a country python). One Eyed-Jack said. "Putting the bumper sticker on the snake was fine, but taking it off was more than a little hairy."

(Well, "snakes alive!!")

KOZN-FM, San Diego, the newest Country radio facility in that area. held a contest for listeners to attend the Disneyland Country Music Spectacular. Pictured are pat of the group of winners. Kneeling and holding the sign is (left to right) BOB DARNELL, afternoon drive jock; JAMES HOLLEY. morning drive personality; and station PD and mid-day jock GARY PERKINS.

HALF-MILLION wArr ALL-NIGHTERS? The current FCC study into super coverage maps for a dozen or so clear channel radio stations could change the complexion of all night radio. Considered is the crea-tion of perhaps a dozen super-powered radio stations license to boost power to maybe ten times the current maximum allowable. An FCC report in 1961 concluded that about half the nation's land area and about 25 million people are without night-time primary service from any stand-ard broadcast station. The thought of a possible half-million watts of power is overwhelming. In fact, only one U.S. broadcast station ever has used 500,000 watts of power: WLW/CIN-CINNATI. back in the years 1934 through 1941. During that time, many areas near the transmitter, residents couldn't turn off their electric lights because their home wiring acted as an antenna. The clear channel pro-ceeding. I understand, is the oldest active docket at the FCC. dating back to 1945. I know a lot of lesser powered stations whose bitter yells could be heard around the world!

FISHING STARS: NASHVILLE TENNESSEAN outdoor editor JIMMY HOLT made memories in a recent story on country music fishermen: He fondly remembers when new D.I. Hall of Famer SMILIN' EDDIE HILL and T. TOMMY CUTRER. headed for Kentucky Lake and Dale Hollow. RAY PRICE. he says, loved Old Hickory Lake years ago and caught his share of Lunkers out there. . . Music Row Execs and record session giants who are avid anglers. accord-ing to Jimmy Holt. include steelman HAL RUGG. lefty guitarist DALE SELLERS. FRED CARTER. ELVIS' first drummer D.J. FONTANA. and Columbia engineer LOU BRADLEY... PORTER WAGONER is an expert smallmouth bass fisherman. and JERRY REED. Jimmy said. may love fishing as much as any man he's ever met. Reed's rockfishing is his favorite hook. Speaking of Reed. he's already

upset about the early Christmas shopping traffic. Said he laid his arm on a counter and somebody bought it for $9.98!

JACK D. JOHNSON FORMS TWO

COMPANIES Jack D. Johnson, who is credited

with having discovered Charley Pride while the singer was a smelter worker in Montana some eleven years ago and with guiding his ca-

reer to superstar status, has an-nounced the formation of two new

musk publishing firms, Highball Music, Inc. (BMI) and Lowban Music

Inc. (ASCAP). Simultaneously, Johnson an-

nounced the sale of his interest in PI-GEM Music, Inc. (BMI) and CHESS Music Inc. (ASCAP), the two

publishing houses he founded with Pride six years ago. Under Johnson's guidance as President, both firms

have become major forces in coun-try music publishing. Johnson is best known to the

music industry for his effectiveness

as an artists manager in guiding the careers of Charley Pride and Ronnie Milsap to superstardom. In recent years, he has also been success-ful as a record producer. As co-producer of Ronnie Milsap's

records for RCA, he shared the honors as the Country Music Asso-

ciation's Producer of the Year Award

for the Milsap album, "A Legend In My Time." In addition, Milsap's recording, "Please Don't Tell Me

How The Story Ends," was awarded a NARAS Grammy earlier this year for Best Male Vocal Performance In the country category. Johnson

also produces and manages RCA's talented new artist, Sarah Johns.

In regard to the new publishing firms, Johnson relates, "I am keep-ing a nucleus of some of the most

productive and talented writers in the business. For Highball (BMI),

I will have Don Goodman, Mark Sherrill and Sarah Johns. Goodman most recently wrote "Feelin's" which was recorded by Loretta Lynn

and Conway Twitty. Sherrill penned the foe Stampley hit, "Dear Woman" As a matter of fact, the first two songs written for the new catalogue

by Goodman and Mentor Williams have already been recorded." "Lowball (ASCAP) will retain pub-

lishing on the highly successful writ-er, Bud Renneau. He has penned

songs for a wide range of artists including Roy Clark, Waylon Jenn-

ings, Andre Kostelanetz and Roy Orbison. His song, "All I Need Is

•ome prime single material provided on this effort by Ms. Shepard. Cut like We Had Some Good Times" and "Good Nights Make Good Morn-ings" have good sounding melodies. Also very good was "I Think I'll Wait Till Tomorrow." Fine production from LARRY BUTLER. and the IOR-DONAIRES provide quality background vocals. The singles "I'm A Believer" and "Another Neon Night" are featured.

ANNE MURRAY Together (Capitol)

For the most part this LP contains music more in the pop vein than country. But there are a few cuts worthy of country radio exposure. As always the Murray sound is slick and very polished. The two strongest country cuts are "Sunday Sun-rise" (Which is her current single release). and "The Call." "If It's Alright With You" has a pop-country flavor that might fit with a mod-country format. The album provides good listening, true country or not.

Time," was the album title and sin-gle for Gladys Knight and The Pips, and his "Days of Sand and Shovels" has been recorded by some thirty artists."

MELODYLAND MAKES CHANGE Herb Belkin, Vice President of

Creative Operations for Motown Re-c.prds, and as such responsible for the company's country label, Melody-land, has announced three appoint-ments as part of what has been described as a major buildup of the

country operation. Record promotion for the eastern

portion of the United States has been assigned tolohn Fisher; the western region has been designated to John Curb, and the central-southwest area will be assumed by Peter Svend-sen.ln an effort to expand Melody-land's penetration /of the country music market, a new operational directive has been established with Motown's sales and distribution fac-ilities. Melodyland will then be in a better position to utilize Motown's strong capabilities in these areas. Belkin says. "Melodyland has just

celebrated its first anniversary in the country music field. When I came to Motown, the record company was looking for ways to 'expand its base. I suggested that a country label be formed because this particular part of the music industry has been known for its stability. We are optimistic about the future in light of what , has been accomplished in the first 12 months. Of course, our greatest success has been in establishing T.G. Sheppard as a major artist. But be-sides the two number one hit singles which Sheppard has had, we also had a huge crossover hit with Jud Strunk's "The Biggest Parakeets in Town" as well as ten additional chart records. This means that our other artists have had the oppor-tunity to grow and develop." "We have finished evaluating the

necessary steps required to maxi-mize the effectiveness of the label for the future. John Fisher as well as John Curb, and Peter Svendsen provide us with a very effective pro-motion base with which to operate. By restructuring the sales and dis-tribution procedures with Motown. we thereby enlist their substantive

strength and capabilities and also free the Melodyland staff to just con-centrate on promoting product and

building our artists." Prior to these appointments.

Fisher was a regional promotion man for Melodyland. He will continue to be based in Nashville. John Curb was formerly with Mike Curb Produc-tions and was involved in record promotion there for the past year and a half. Svendsen has most re-cently been in independent promo-tion. and prior to that, he was the southern regional Sales Director for MGM Records. He will be based in

Dallas.

POP NOTES BY MIKE KASABO

As pointed out last week, the R&R Convention '76 is shaping up in rapid fashion. Latest to lend their expertise to the Pop meetings include Chuck Blore-President of Chuck Blore Creative Services, Jim Mahaney-WTRX, John Benedict-WTBQ, Alan Colmes-WNHC, Bonnie Smith-WMAL • If you haven't already made your plans to attend, please do not pro-crastinate because the rooms are going fast. One of the subjects pen-ciled in for discussion is the growing amount of what I call "closet rockers." By definition, these are stations that are not quite full-blown rockers and at the same time could hardly be considered (pardon the expression) musically "Middle Of The Road." Whatever your view, the emergence and successful application of these stations in many big markets is a topical subject. We also plan a complete musical review (going back to the Thirties) of Pop music. All in less than ten minutes. And many more topics, presentations and the like. So keep thinking of ways and means to make R&R Convention '76 your convention... Programmer Bob Lee KSL, noted my call-letter trivia example several weeks ago. He said he's tried to come up with an answer for his station's letters, but could only manage an uninspiring Salt Lake. Keep at it

Bob, there's bound to be something more significant there.. .Biggest jumper the Pop/40 has had in recent memory is the latest by C.W. McCall "Convoy" leaped from 37-16. And I'd like to point out that the first person who made me aware of it's potential is KMBZ. Program Director, Steve Bell. By the way, Steve also is making plans to attend February

meeting in Atlanta...As "This Will Be" edges its way down charts, Natalie Cole's latest "Inseperable" finding much airplay support. See

New & Active above for newest additions.. Charlie Rich, back into a smoother mood with his latest "Since I - Fell For You." Song was last a big hit in 1963 by Lenny Welch. Anyone remember the label?...

Had a nice chat with Mike Sheppard last week, and he assured me that his record by Zoot Fenster "Man On Page 602" will no longer have stock problems that have hampered its growth in the past....
