All around the country TV sta- tions are receiving calls, many of them long -distant, about a certain one -minute beer com- mercial message. Those inquiring want to know the name of the tune and if it's available at record stores. By accident, we located some- one in Kitchener who just re- turned from visiting Dublin, Ireland. His name is Clare Millar, and he provided this in- formation: The song is entitled "Off to Dublin", and the name of the group is "The Abbey Lane Bar Singers". The record is available in Ireland, but so far it is not available in Can- ada. I telephoned the advertising agency, F. H, Hayhurst, who handles this account (which, in- cidentally, is Carling's Black Label) and was informed that they are going to Ireland for the purpose of making a record which would presumably be sold in this country. From New York City, .a friend who just returned from Japan sent this interesting item along. He writes: "Japanese scientists are drawing fish to waiting nets by broadcasting, through the water, the sounds made by feed- ing fish schools. They had tossed bait into the water, then recorded the sounds made by fish swarming to the bait. Re- played later under water, the sounds attract fish of the same species. Schools of •different species produce feeding noises peculiar to that species. * * The other day I picked up the telephone and called Batman's agent in New York. After the usual exchange of names and "how are you's", the conversa- tion went something like this: "I'm calling to find •out if Bat- man makes personal appear- ances." The answer was "yes". "What's the fee?" The answer was $20,000, plus expenses. "How long would the personal appearance last?' "That's for one day," was the answer. IIe's not only asking for twenty thousand, but he's get- ting it. His agent informed me that he is ,booked into a stadium in New York City and he will also receive a percentage of the gross as well as the 20 grand. As the man said, "You can't blame him for making it while he can." When the show dies, so will Batman's fee. AMY 111 Petroleums Limited Gasoline !
