Big Contract Let
By Rock-Ola
The financial sections of the Chi
cago papers are carrying the news of
a huge contract let by the Rock-Ola
Manufacturing Corporation. The fig
ure involved is well over $75,000.00.
This contract, which is just being
completed, called for additional build-
lng and modernization of the big
Rock-Ola plant at Kedzie and Chi
cago Avenues, in Chicago. Among
the projects listed for the Rock-Ola
Plant are the replacement of all pip-
lng in the plant’s engine rooms, con
struction of additional loading plat
forms, the building of cement floors
in several buildings of the Rock-Ola

properties, the installation of new
power lines, installation of new elec
tric motors in several divisions of the
plant, new water lines, and motoriz
ing of a great deal of the plant’s
machinery.
The contract also called for out
side decorating in addition to the big
project just recently completed. All
the outside walls were then sand
blasted, and exposed surfaces paint
ed. At that time civic-minded mem
bers of the industrial area dominated
by the Rock-Ola plant expressed their
appreciation of the way in which the
big plant has brightened up that sec
tion of the city.

It is also interesting to notice a re
port from Rock-Ola showing 1,000
employees on the payroll at the pres
ent time. The entire plant is unusual
ly busy, due, for one thing, to the
tremendous nation-wide demand for
the current Rock-Ola favorites—
among them Hollywood, and Ditto.
Besides, production is in full swing on
Flashlite, Headlite, Hold and Draw,
Loboy Scales, and other well-known
favorites. Also there is the continu
ous production to supply the nation’s
operators with Rock-Ola Multi Selec

wards. In addition it is the lowest
priced multiple coin slot and one ball
payout with changing odds on the
market. Daily Races is the only game
on the market with the original pay
out regulator.
Comments have been coming in
daily from distributors and jobbers
everywhere telling of the instant suc
cess of Daily Races. And with en
thusiastic reports coming from all
points, north, south, east and west,
there is little wonder why D. Gott
lieb & Co. are geared up for one of
their most successful years. The plant
is working day and night to satisfy
the clamoring for immediate ship
ment.
“We are doing our best,” said Dave
Gottlieb, “but there are certain steps
that each game must pass through be
fore it is ready for shipment.

With orders coming in from all

cording to Dave Gottlieb, their new

is sweeping the country. Distributors
everywhere are reporting exceptional
business.
One of the big reasons, which
make Daily Races a phenomenal hit,
is the mechanical arrangements for
