Manufacturer Fosters Departmental Teams to Boost Morale and Sales
C,
M . Schwarz, an outstanding
manufacturer and distributor of
coin operated machines in Ger­
many, has come into the lim e­
light as sponsor of some of the
outstanding industrial athletic
teams of that country.
M r. Schwarz, an athlete and
sportsman himself, has encour­
aged the organization of football,
ever, it is w ell to remember that
there are a number of manu­
facturers in Germany who are
producing a large amount of ma­
chines and equipment. In fact,
it is contended by some that Ger­
man coin detectors are one of the
finest pieces of equipment made.
There are very few in operation
in this country, however.
stand that these parties beat the
case because the machine was a
dial ’phone. Since the German
telephones are under government
supervision the prosecution con­
tended that playing slugs into
public telephones was counter­
feiting and obtaining service or
merchandise through misrepre­
sentation.
The defendants contended that
since they were playing in an
automatic machine they had de­
ceived no one. T h ey argued that
the machine is an automaton and
without intelligence, so that the
case came to naught.
I t is doubtful if such a defense
would even be heard in a court
in this country, particularly in a
Federal court.
This might be a bit of informa­
tion that would interest “ Believe-
it-or-not Ripley.”
A w a it N e w
Regulations
on
Games
One of C. M. Schwarz* football teams which has set a record in Coin Machine circles*
and other games, among his em­
ployees. H e has several teams
known as the Silent Automatics,
Astoria Automatics and the Jack­
pot Automatics. H is first string
football team has been very suc­
cessful in its games.
In addi­
tion to creating a spirit of good­
w ill, these teams have built up
the morale of the Schwarz or­
ganization, it is claimed.
According to a story in D E R
A U T O M A T , the Schwarz Com­
pany have not laid off any of their
employees because of the depres­
sion and have been able to go
along and do a bigger business
than formerly.
I t m ay surprise some of our
own manufacturers and operators
to know that Germany supports
one concern of such size. H o w ­
In another part of this issue we
have a story about some of our
own stars in athletic pursuits in
the coin machine industry. Now,
we have an international aspect,
and it may not be many years
before we w ill see the M ills Offi­
cials or the W a tlin g Blue Seals
competing w ith the Schwarz
Silent Automatics in a real cham­
pionship soccer game.
I t is possible that a new sched­
ule of regulations covering the
operation of playing machines, as
games and amusement devices,
are called in Germany. Th e in­
dustry and the operators in Ger­
many are looking forward w ith
a great deal of interest to the re­
lease of these new regulations.
Just w hat restrictions w ill be
made is not as yet known. H o w ­
ever, the leading operators in the
industry have endeavored to make
such presentations as w ill bene­
fit the operation of this type of
machine.
