Chart Notes: The Beatles total domination of WPGC's Top Ten grows to new heights as all five of the top positions are held by the Fab Four. Joining 'I Want To Hold Your Hand', 'She Loves You' and 'Please, Please Me' at #1, #2 & #3 respectively, two cuts from the 'Meet The Beatles' album, 'All My Lovin' and 'Till There Was You' skyrocket to #4 and #5.

Meanwhile, 'I Want To Hold Your Hand' keeps its grasp on the #1 position at Milt Grant's Network, WWDC, WEAM, holds steady #2 at WEEL (where the entire 'Meet The Beatles' album is in the #1 spot!), falls to #6 at WINX but at WDON where the thinking is, there might just be something to this Beatles thing, rebounds from #7 to #3.

'She Loves You', stays at #2 at Milt Grant's Network and WWDC, moves up to #2 at WEAM, clains the top spot at WINX, and appears for the first time at #4 on WDON. Incredibly, the song does not appear in the Top Ten at WEEL where it had been #8 the week before, suggesting a typo or an otherwise oversight!

In a harbinger of things to come, the first instances of non-Beatles, British Invasion tuneage appears with the Searchers debuting at #9 with 'Needles & Pins' at WEEL and Dusty Springfield's 'I Only Want To Be With You' at #10 on WINX.

On the homefront, the latest offering from Motown by the Marvelettes, 'He's A Good Guy' stalls at #6 at WUST but falls out of the Top Ten at WDON, which by now has come to the conclusion it might not be such a 'Good' idea to play a song with a title promoting 'Good Guys Radio', WPGC!

As promised by the Star the previous week, the Predicted Hits return this week. WPGC's pick hit of 'Don't Let The Rain Come Down (Crooked Little Man)' by the Serendipity Singers would go on to peak nationally at #6.
