| NOTE: On the original published chart, Cash Box listed artist and label info for the Top 40 records, along with titles only for positions 41 through 50. Artists/labels listed above in those positions are based on a record’s previous or subsequent appearance in the Top 40 or its appearance on the concurrent Billboard Country charts. *On this week’s original chart, #45 was skipped; “Poor Wildwood Flower” has been inserted in that position based on its positions on the previous and following weeks’ charts, and its appearances on the Disc Jockey Regional Reports that week. |
