Disney Patent Suit Settled
Without Trial
Kansas City, April 15.—Judges Al­
bert L. Reeves and Merril E. Otis of
the Federal District Court entered a
judgement by agreement of the par­
ties without trial in favor of the
plaintiffs in a suit brought by the
W alt Disney Productions of Holly­
wood and Hamilton Enterprises, Inc.,
of Kansas City against a group of
local defendants for alleged misuse
of Disney’s fanciful characters.
The Hamilton concern was given
the right to use the Disney characters
on vending machines in this territory.
The suit was for damages and for
an injunction prohibiting A. E. Sand-
hous of the Great States Manufac­
turing Company and the Colonial
Sales and Novelty Company; M. E.
Sandhaus and the Great States Op­
erating Company from infringing
Disney patent rights.
Penalties Assessed
The judgement was taken into
court by John W. Hudson, attorney
for the plaintiffs, following a settle­
ment out of court. Hudson said the
decrees assessed substantial penal­
ties and the cost of the proceeding
against the defendants.
The judgement decreed the Hamil­
ton Enterprises, Inc., was the sole
and exclusive licensee of W alt Dis­
ney Productions to manufacture and
sell representations and charms of
the Disney characters in and on vend­

ing machines for the United States
and its territorial possessions. Also
named in the suit as defendants were
the Crown Drug Company, Phil Small
and John Small, individually and as
a co-partnership doing business as the
Parkview Pharmacy; Milgram Food
Stores, Inc., A. H. Tucker and Edgar
C. Nelson, individually and as a co­
partnership doing business as the
Alexander Printing Company, and
the Acme Dekal Company, the Wein-
traub Baking Company, and Jack C.
Newton, doing business as the Belch­
er Printing Company.
All Are Enjoined
The judgement permanently en­
joined all of the defendants from
using the names of any of the Disney
characters without the written con­
sent of Walt Disney Productions or
Hamilton Enterprises.
The defendants were ordered to
surrender to the plaintiffs all repre­
sentations of the Disney fanciful
characters which they had in their
possession and had been formerly
using in and on vending machines.
The judgement decreed further the
defendants had infringed the copy­
rights and trademarks of W alt Dis­
ney Productions.
The original petition filed by Hud­
son asked the defendants be assessed
$1 for every character, charm or
paper reproduction of Disney char­

B A S E B A L L BOARD
Superior again sets the stage for a
tremendously successful summer for
operators in all parts of the nation
with the most sensational baseball
board ever made. Following on the
heels of last year’s great baseball
boards, BOX SCORE represents a new
high in this type of board. New, brilli­
antly-colored symbol tickets, hand-
drawn by Superior artists adds new
note of appeal to board.
Each ticket bears reproductions of
artists conception of nick-names of the
sixteen major league teams. Tickets
are absolutely fraud-proof.

most all of our locations and a
much higher net average income
per location would be the result.’
“In a factory magazine that I
was editing, we visualized six­
teen ways that an operator
might advertise his phonograph
on location for the purpose of
attracting the patrons’ attention
to it and getting them to play it.
Operators from all over the
country wrote in to ask ‘Where
can we get these items and how
much?’
Announces “Play Boosters”
“Here, in my opinion, was a
needed business. So I found out
what items a location owner
would use and named them ‘Play
Boosters.’ We worked out ways
of producing them in large
quantities at great savings.
“We have perfected a means
whereby the operator can truly
merchandise music on his loca­
tions at a cost that is in line with
what the increase will bear. A
circular illustrating these pho­
nograph ‘Play Boosters’ will be
mailed around the end of April
to most of the operators in
America.”
Takes in $120.00— 2400 holes at 5c
per punch— and pays out an average
of $75.71. Pays operator average profit
of $44.29. Tickets bearing three New
York Yankees or three Chicago Cubs,
winners in their respective leagues last
season, are advances to the jackpot.
Jackpot contains advances to each of
the four bases at each comer of the
baseball diamond at the top of the
board. “Home Run” punches in each
base, “Three Base H it” in first, second,
and third, etc. Write for descriptive
literature about BOX SCORE and
other new boards in Superior’s sen­
sational line of baseball boards.
