Fall Business Starts O ff Well
Jim Buckley, sales manager of the
Bally Manufacturing Company, an
nounces th^t due to increased produc
tion facilities Bally is now in a posi
tion to make prompt shipments on
“ Rambler” and “ Ticker,” the two
new Bally counter games. “We were
snowed under for a while,” Jim de
clared, “ and, to tell the truth, some
what taken by surprise. Considering
that this is the tag-end of summer,
we hardly expected the flow of busi
ness that poured in on us. Appar
ently, however, operators recognize
these two machines as ideally suited
to start off the fall season with and
are buying now in anticipation of ris
ing prices.”

Rambler uses the 3-ball idea that
made Skipper popular. Fruit reel
symbols are also used on the playing
field, which is a tricky pin game. Steel
pins, coil-spring baffles, one-way
gates, and an unusual arrangement of
scoring pockets are depended on to
speed up the action and stimulate a
desire to develop skill by practice.
Ticker is an entirely new type of
pin game designed to promote the
greatest possible s u s p e n s e . The
chances of winning or losing are ab
solutely uncertain until the last ball
has been played. The last ball may
wreck an otherwise perfect score or
turn a hopeless game into a winner.
The out-hole is actually a fascinating
skill-hole, for which the player often
deliberately shoots.
Both Rambler and Ticker are
equipped with Bally’s new coin slot
by which the last coin played is kept
in sight. Both machines are also
equipped with a new tumbler-type
tilting device which is said to be un
usually sensitive.
A stadium of 40,000 people watch
ing 18 men at play presents a won
derful picture of the way our race
takes its exercise.
