coin
chute on new bowl-type game.
LOS ANGELES. -Neutron Engi neering
& Mfg. Corp. announce that they are now
in fu ll production on their Cal iente, new
seven-chute bowl-t; pe game with changing
odds, and de liveries and shipments are be-
ing made daily throughout the United
States.
John Rough, Jr , secretary of Neutron,
states: "When the production line was start-
ed on Caliente, many months of tremendous
engineering effort and experimenting on this
great money-making game came to a happy
ending. We cou ld have placed Caliente in
the hands of coin machine men several
weeks ago, but tbe po licy 'it is better to
be late than sorry' has been the by-word of
this company."
All parts of Caliente have been thor-
oughly tested, and Fred Cole and Ten nies
Kol ts, in charge of engineering and pro-
duction, burned gallons of "mid night oi l"
making thorough checks of all mechani ca l
and electrical parts.
" Furthermore," says John Rough, "Cal-
ien te is a perfect game from the standpoint
of percentage of payout. W hen this game
leaves the factory, th e payout is 'right.'
H owever, the operator can vary it merely
by throwing sma ll switches inside the cab-
inet."
Through a year of. tireless effort, Neutron
has built a non-clogging seven-way coi n
chute. Rough declares that operators posi-
tively do not have any trouble w ith coi ns
clogging in the chute. Game is designed
to provide max imum earning power with
minimum service call s.

The Best Paying Locations
DEMAND
and
DESERVE
Mutoscope Cranes
BECAUSE
Mutoscope Cranes
MAKE MORE MONEY
THE WORLD'S BEST CRANE
and some of the reasons why
AUTOMATIC CANDY VENDOR
Separate automatic vendor. Gives player
a
definite purchase.
An
exclusive
"MUTOSCOPE" Feature.
Wanted by
operators for years .
CANDY SAVING FEATURE
The Mutoscope is so constructed that by
insertion of a coin l the player automatic-
ally receives a specified amount of
candy, but if he doesn't press a special
lever, no candy will drop out. And if
there is no candy in the machine, it can-
not b e ope rated.
FRONT SERVICING
Ya u can r e fill the Crane and rearrange
your display from the front with the
door entirely removed- also reach the
:ash box and candy saving tray from the
front, thus enabling you to place Crane
in a very narrow space.
LARGEST MERCHANDISE PREMIUMS
IN THE INDUSTRY
Nothing is more attractive to the player
than to see several l ticles in the display . The new chute
will deliver items larger than a pound
can of coffee with ease.
LARGE CASH BOX-
SEALEif COIN REGISTER
Protected by two locks. To get at it you
must first unlock the front panel and
then the metal cash drawer- which_ is
secured with a second lock. Coin register
assures accurate check on earnings .
FLASHING MIRROR BACKGROUND
Genuine French Plate G lass mirror
doubles the appearance of the disp lay-
which is further enhanced by the g leam-
ing chromium fittings.
GREATER DISPLAY AREA
270 square inches of display area. The
tops of the "Empire State" Storehouses
can be used for the display of additional
novelties.
SPECIAL LOCK PROTECTION
Every lock equipped with a special lock
protector. A further exclusive money
saving "MUTOSCOPE" Feature.
NICKEL SILVER CHAINS
Specially designed Foxtail double-link
chains used for lifting the Crane are
vastly superior to cord, both in appear-
ance and in permanence. Another ex-
clusive "MUTOSCOPE" Feature!
STRONGEST CONSTRUCTION
Made to last for YEARS! . . • Investigate
and you will be amazed at the number of
Cran es 4. 5. and 6 years old still in use-
still on location- STILL MAKING MONEY.
COMP ARE the earning power of the MUTOSCOPE Crane with any
other coin machine equipment you ara now operating
and you'
are certain to decide to "GO MUTOSCOPE" ! ! !
