NEW YORK — George Scheck, head of Diversified Artists Corp., told Billboard that some radio programmers are still hesitant or reluctant about playing the first release on the Twentieth-Century Fox label by his client, Mary Wells. Scheck said that “some remember that a while back Motown Records had issued an alert concerning her contractual obligations with them and warned of possible litigation if they programmed material she might release on other labels.”

Scheck also stated, “Just to get the record straight, there has been a happy settlement arrangement made with Miss Wells, Motown Records and 20th Century Fox Records which makes it possible for her to record for the film company record division.” END
