YELLOW JACKET
Thursday January 9t 1941
0n 1L LIMELIGHT
Much of the music composed In
the last half century disappeared with
the passing of the old year from
three-font ths of the natlon'e radio
stations including the thiee major
networks.
The Ameiican Society of Compos-
ers Aulhois and Publishcis unci the
National Association of Broadcasters
foimally severed contractual relations
at midnight January 1 1041. There
is no sign of an immediate renewal in
the offing.
The Issue on which they wete un-
able to agtce was the method and
a mount of futuie payment for the
right to use ASCAP-controlled songs
on the air. Thete were countct -accusations
of blocking ncgotations that
might have brought a truce.
As the clock struck 12 employees
ol ASCAP In 31 cities stalled ma-
chines to record musical piograms
played on the radio the purpose be-
ing to detect any copyright Infringe-
ment. Broadcast MJusic Inc. the music
publishing fltm organized by the ra-
dio Industiy to supplant ASCAP an-
nounced that it had taken out $1-
000000 insurance a fourth of it
written by Lloyd's London to In-
demnify any station or advertiser
that might be sued by ASCAP as a
lesult of the use of the new BMI
catalogue.
Among ASCAP tunes which arc
now missing on the affected air waves
are God Bless America. Happy Birth-
luy To You St. Louis Blues marches
by John Phillip Sousa and many of
the day's most popular hit tunes.
Bradford Speaks
To Service Band
Keatuiing the regular weekly meet-
ing of the Life Service Band last
Monday night was an inspltational
message delivered by Rev. J. M.
Bradford pastor of the Coggln Ave-
nue Baptist Church. His text taken
f i Din Paul's letter to the Phllllplans
was "I pi ess toward the matk foi
the prize of the high calling of God
in Jesus Christ."
Kcv. Bradford said that It was es-
sential that one should forget the ac-
complishments and things he has done
but should look forward with greater
expectation and hope Into the new
year for a better and gi eater service
to humanity and God.
A duet When I get To The End of
The Way was sung by Florence Fun-
deiburk and Violet MlcDowell.
The Band made plans to present
piogiams at two churches In Fort
Worth this week-end.
After the completion of the even-
ing's piogram the following officers
weie elected for the coming semes-
ter: Lloyd Hart president; Leo Ann-
strong vice-president; Pauline Knowl-
ton secretary; Grace Martin corres-
ponding secretary; Lamar Lewis
tieasuier; James Vermillion bus
driver; Otis Holiday extension chair-
man; Dallas Alford reporter Charles
Polston chorister Lorene Wilcox
pianist; and Oleta Strother librarian.

BMI officials cxptcssed confidence
that they would be able to provide
the public with the music it wants
and pointed to several of their songs
as cxumplcs including The Sumc Old
Story Practice Makes Pet feet I
Give You My Word So You're tho
One There I Go and I Hear a Khap-
sody. BMI has stated that it has a
leseivoir of some 000000 songs be-
sides those on which the copyright
has expired.
Since the change from ASCAP to
BMI tunes has come into cftec' one
of the most noticeable changes is the
otclicstras that are heard each night.
The old favoilte orchestral have not
begun to play sttictly BMI tunes and
uie thctcforc bunnco from the nir-
ways. This Is bringing many new and
unheard of bands to the air.
Churllc Chaplin made a tefusal last
week that is the first of its kind to
come to this columnist's notice. The
New York Post annually gives an
uwuicl to the outstanding actor of the
year. This year the honor was be-
stowed upon Chaplin. He refused the
award with the excuse that such an
awaid made the public think that the
aotois were In competition with one
another. This seems to show that all
uctois aic not In the business for the
money Involved. The pictuie which
brought this distinction to Chaplin
was "The Dictator" In which Chaplin
mimics Adolph Hitler. Chaplin was
not only the leading actor In this pic-
ture but he was also the director and
producer.
