(U.R) Next time you play your favorite record in the juke box, give a thought to the man who may have put it there. D. M. Steinberg is not a com poser, not a music publisher. He is not a disk jockey, and he can't even carry a tune. But he de termines what platters will be placed in some 100,000 juke boxes throughout the nation. Steinberg is executive direct or of the Music Guild of Amer ica. Every Tuesday night he mails from his office here the lineups of records that find their way into the juke boxes. It is known as the "Hit Parade Pro gram Service" and was launched five years ago by Steinberg. Given What They Want , The secret of his success lies in the fact that he gives juke box customers just what they want. And he has his own fool proof method of sampling the nation's taste in popular music. It is called a "prevue testing sur vey." Every week new records ar rive in Steinberg's office here and his staff promptly ships them to 25 "juke box testing loca tions" scattered in metropolitan areas throughout the country. Each selection has a meter that registers the number of times a platter is played. At the end of each week, Steinberg's testers send him those figures. Steinberg analyzes -the figures and from them makes out the printed list of songs which go to Guild clients and then directly into the joke boxes. "My system has taken the guess work out of juke boxes," he said. "When a juke box oper ator puts a record into his ma chines now, he knows they won't just gather dust." " . Steiberg said most juke box distributing firms change their records every week, substituting for old ones the new ones gain ing in popularity. The .latest trend in popular music, for ex ample, seems to favor strictly instrumental selections over vo cals,, he said. Cost Greatly Increased Steinberg, who also is execu tive director of the Music Guild of New Jersey, representing 68 firms in North Jersey, pointed out that economic pressures and intense competition nave great ly increased the cost of juke boxes. A new one, he said, now costs at least $1,000, with the opera tor hoping to pay it off in five years because of its rapid de preciation. But the problem in even the smallest taverns, where the amount of money taken in probably will be small, insist on the very latest of equipment. Juke boxes are rented to a location owner on a commission basis, Steinberg said. The op erator gets a certain portion of the gross and splits the balance with the location owner. Most operators insist on a $20 weekly minimum guarantee, with the average juke box earning about $8 a week. Taft's Son Wins Representative Bid Cincinnati U.R) Robert A. Taft Jr., today made his first step to follow the political path of his father a brilliant one. The voung attorney in his first bid for public office topped the veteran state legislators as he won election as a state repre sentative.
