Wurlitzer 165 Rolls
By Matthew Caulfield

It looks like relief is coming for those of us who need Wurlitzer style
165 rolls.  I am not sure I remember who those people are now.  If them
is you, please drop me a note at: caulfiel@mail.loc.gov

And Robbie, let's go with "Painting The Town Red White And Blue."
Do you need a "relief editor relief editor"?

 [ Relief Editors note:
 [
 [ At least one year ago I promised Matthew I would provide him a song
 [ template which he could use to hand-cut a music roll.  Just yesterday
 [ I received the "Template" computer program from Jody, and after I
 [ learn its use I can finally make the marked template for Matthew of
 [ the song "Painting the Town ...", recently composed by our member
 [ S. K. Goodman.  I will simply mark the playing notes; Matthew will
 [ punch the holes and test the musical results when the roll is played
 [ on the Wurlitzer 165 band organ at the carousel in Echo Park, MD.
