TOM CANNON
SCORES BEAT

Thomas J. Cannon, the director of
the orchestra at Loew's Palace The
ater, believes he has slipped one over
on the towns music dealers. He feels
convinced that he's scooped them in
their own. territory, as the reporters
say.
Cannon constantly keeps weather
eye. out for new musical selections,
and among the latest batch OF new
Manhattan song hits was a sheet of
81 Want Daddy to Rock Me to
Sleep" the song hit of the Greenwich
Village Follies, now playing in New
York. Cannon tried the piece out
with the Palace orchestra and the
success of the production was almost
instantaneous. Within an hour of
the time the selection was added to
the Palace program patrons Of the
theater were besieging the managers
office for the name of the song.
Within the next twenty-four hours
several + street music dealers had
purchased seats to the Palace show
to hear the piece, which was in in
tense demand by their patrons. As
soon as the dealers heard the piece
they stocked up, and this week you
can hear it played in half the cafes
and hotels OF Washington.
Director Cannon is a lover Of clas-
sic music himself. and proba IDLY IL he
had no public to consult the only
music he would play would be classi-
cal; but Cannon believes the people
as a whole like their music snappy.
and he believes in giving it to them.
