On the Air

Contests usually are given short
shrift around here because they
are pure advertising gimmicks.
Their aim is to enrich, not the
contest winner. but whoever
stages the contest. They are al
ways with us on the broadcast
ing scene, but they can be ig-
nored with clear conscience.
1t turns out, however, that 1t
may be an i'll contest which
blows no good. Take the one
just won by WWDC's Jack Row.
zie, who, during a two-week
January period, got 10.031 au-
thentic requests. more than any
other disc jockey in the contest.
for Melody of Love"
This contest was conducted
by the Mercury records people.
who did not have the Forest
Heights (Md.) Baptist Church
in mind when they launched it.
What they had in mind was
pushing the sale of David Car
rolls recording of Melody Of
Love-" an honorable motive, to
be sure.
1t is the church which gains.
however, since Mr.. Rowzie.
member of the congregation, had
earmarked his prize money, if
any, for the building fund. 1t
could turn out to be more than
the $500 cash prize. too. Another
of Mr.. Rowzie's prizes is a con-
tract to record why Do Love
You?" Gas on that old Wayne
King recor6 to Mr. Carroll's
Melody of Love" background.
Mr.. Rowzie's royalty cut will
be five per cent. so the Forest
Heights church will get a dollar
for every $40 worth of records
sold. Another recording of MEL
ody of Love" at this late date does
not seem the likeliest prospect
for selling a million copies, but
whatever the return it will be
more than his church would
have had if Mr.. Rowzie hadn't
won this contest.
The WWDC disc jockey, in
cidentally. is also involved with
another record right now. This
one is a recording of a mambo
version of "Hindustan." made
by Bob Scobey and orchestra,
which RowZie seems to have
turned into 4 hit on his after
noon 1890 Club" His contribu-
ton to its success is acknowl-
edged by Lester Koenig, presi-
dent of the Good Time jazz
Record Co. of Los Angeles. Wrote
Mr.. Koenig to WWDC:
"Scobey recorded the tune in
1853 long before the current in
terest in the mambo. AS a mat
ter of fact, it is probably the
first mambo treatment of jazz
standard and was quite possibly
a bit ahead of its time.
"Rowzie's spinning of the rec
ord in Washington after it lay
dormant for two years Is the
only thing which has created all
the interest.
II can only hope that Jack
continues to spin the record be-
cause with another week or two
he will really make it hit of
substantial proportions nation
ally"
Strange, indeed, are the ways
in which records become hits.
This mambo "Hindustan" was
brought back to life only because
Charley Ray, a WWDC engineer,
happened to remember it. He
and Rowzie dug it out of the
