"The Sweetheart Tree" in Movie "The Great Race"
By David Oppenheim

Johnny Mercer, with Henry Mancini, wrote the song "The Sweetheart Tree"
for the film, "The Great Race", in 1965.  QRS made a player roll of the
tune that was played on a player piano on the RCA recording with the
Mancini Chorus.  The roll was and maybe still is in the QRS catalog.
I bought a copy of it in the 1970's.  It is a marimba arrangement.
