A resume of the past year indicates that the total volume of sales for 1927 compared very favorably with that of the preceding year. Wallace Russell, of the Standard Talking Machine Co., Victor distributor, stated that the year closed for the company in a most satisfactory manner and that sales were decidedly brisk, especially of the higher-priced styles of the Victor line. The Standard company is also distributor for the Sparton radio and found that the demand for this product far exceeded the supply. George H. Rewbridge, manager of the wholesale Victor department of the W. F. Frederick Co., stated that business was exceptionally brisk and that he felt sure that the new year would be a very profitable one for the Victor dealers who seek business in a systematic and progressive manner. The W. F. Frederick Co., according to E. B. Heyser, vicepresident, had a very large sale of the Zenith radio, the firm being distributor here. "Sales of Brunswick Panatropes and records were very satisfactory the last quarter of the year," said Manager Lewis of the local Brunswick offices. The introduction of the new style Atwater Kent radio receiving set here produced quite an impression in radio circles and the local distributor, the Esenbe Co., according to H. M. Swartz, one of the officials of the company, was highly pleased with the volume of business handled within a few hours after the new model was placed on the market. Gimbel Bros., of New York and Philadelphia, on January 2 took over the Kaufmann & Baer department store and hereafter the store will be known as "Gimbel Bros." The firm will continue to operate the large talking machine and radio department. Victor, Columbia and Brunswick lines are featured. J. H. Troup, the well-known music dealer of Harrisburg, was host at the Harrisburg Country Club to the members of the sales force of the J. H. Troup Music House, at which an elaborate turkey dinner was served. The Superior Auto Accessories Co., of 5117 Baura Boulevard, Pittsburgh, has been appointed distributor for the Kolster radio sets. New Zenith radio dealers recently appointed by the W. F. Frederick Piano Co., sole distributor in this territory, are: Henderson & Steele, Youngwood, Pa.; James G. John, Beallsville, Pa.; Harold E. Frederick, Bridgeville, Pa.; McKnight & Sons, Brookville, Pa.; Joseph Funari, California, Pa.; W. F. Rossman, Franklin, Pa.; Silas C. Streams, Indiana, Pa.; B. F. Leitenberger Piano Co., and James Gerber, Johnstown; Veiock Music Co., New Brighton, Pa.; Curran Music Co., Sharon, Pa.; D. C. Beatty, Waynesburg, Pa.; M. Karl Smith, New Bethlehem; H. F. Albert Music Co., Millvale, Pa., and F. C. Wampler & Son, McKeesport, Pa. Dr. Miller Preceded Prof. Theremin in His Invention It appears from an article by E. S. Bisbee in the New York Sun that Prof. Leo Theremin, who recently arrived in New York from Russia via Paris, to announce his discovery and invention of producing musical sounds by waving his hands about an electrically energized apparatus, is not the original inventor of this principle, for Dr. F. E. Miller, who for more than forty years has made a study of acoustic and electrical phenomena, secured U. S. Patent No. 1,376,288 on April 26, 1921, for an "electrical system for producing musical tones." It is essential to note that the apparatus does not reproduce, but produces, originates, creates musical tones; it is not dependent upon creative music but creates its own, thus differing from the broadcasting by radio of sounds that have been created by other devices. Make 8-Inch Records Through an error in the advertisement of the Talk Back Phonographic Recording Co. of Los Angeles, which ran in the December issue of this publication, the records manufactured by this company were listed as 6" records whereas Talk Back records are 8" double-faced records.
