The Geo. Leathurby Co. has placed
two dozen Seeburg Royales and' Rexes
"this week. Nothing is slow about busi-
ness in their offices, they say, in spite
of ' the talk about "holding out until
after the . Show."
From Australia came George Graves
to , inspect the new See burgs. Yes, he
put in a big order for Royales and
Hexes.
; ' The San Francisco division of the
State Music Operators' Association is
campaigning for 100 percent state mem-
bership with an ' enthusiasm which sur-
prises ev'e n President Tony Compagno.
Thi's "s ection is contemplating the cover-
ing of the field as far south as San Luis
Obispo and as far north as the Oregon
line. At p.r~sent 85 percent of this
entire territory:_ is already .sewed up
for the -State, . ~hhe.the North; as far as
Sonoma. is .100 percent. "More vigorous
effqrts ,are to be " concentrated in the
southern part of our"" territory," says
Compagno, "but the whole state is cer-
tainly' backing this organization with a
fine ·spirit. "
Smiling Bill Corcoran who has played
Santa Claus to so many of the smap
organizations of music operators, has
been seen frequently .in the company
of a young lady - always the same
young lady. Bill didn't seem to ·put up
any fight, so now he 's going to: marry
the gal, sometime nelft Spring when
bi"i-ds are chirping and ' flowers are all
a-bloom.
Wynne Dimton, blonde owner of the
Wynne Novelty Co. in ' San Francisco
and ' Los Angeles, was honeymooning
at the Hotel Senator in Sacramento on
hand, and more regular advertising in
the REVIEW would, no doubt, give the
dealers opportunity to buttonhole more
customers.
Walter Hannum has a string of horse-
flesh. But he wanted a new car and so
he had his horses provide it. The deed
was accomplished in Chicago. Unqueso
tionably some of the readers saw
Walter ride in , the Rodeo held in the
Windy City this fall. For two weeks he
performed there with his trick horses .
Upon second thought , maybe the seats
of his old car were getting to be rather
uncomfortable, anyway after riding
horses for two weeks, so he sort of
fiqured new seats would be very agree-
able to the lower extension of the back.
That settled the question for him, and
he now owns a shiny Pontiac,
The Coin Machine Exchange, a" firm of
long standing in Springfield, Missouri,
has closed its doors . All the games,
shop equipment, etc., have been sold .
The four trailer loads of equipment
were hauled to St. Louis. Carl Trippe
bought the whole lot.
Popmatics are taking the country by
storm. The demand is by far greater
than the firm is ready to supply. Since
the day the Popmatic went on the
market, production has been speeded
up from about 30 per day to well over
a 100 per day. To multiply production
to the nth degree, almost over night,
is impossible, and as it is now , the
demand will in due time be supplied
more promptly than at first. Production
is forging ahead reasonably fast. The
cost of current used by the machine
may be of interest to those who already
operate them and don't care to make a
test for themselves. According to the St.
Louis rate, the Popmatic uses three
cents' worth of electricity if operated
one hour continually. That means out
of every dollar taken in one cent is
the cost of electric current, here in
St. Louis.

November 22. This news will come as
a cruel blow to the many coinmen who
planned on spending their own honey-
m oon with her, for Wynne was San
Francisco's favorite w oman operator.
She organized the Wynne Novelty
C o. about three years ago in San
Francisco, and immediately gained
popularity through her vitality and zest
for living. The middle of this year she
decided that Los Angeles offered
greener pastures s o moved her equip-
ment down there where she remained
in business until her marriage in Reno
on November 21 to one Mr. Harris.
Harris is asso ciated with Harry Brown,
a new operator in Sacramento, and the
couple plans to remain there. The
COIN MACHINE REVIEW and the
friends of ' the Harrises wish them great
happiness.
P. J. Laxague of Cedarville placed a
large order for games and phonographs
on his recent trip to San Francisco. He
reports the operator's life a happy one
" in Cedarville.
-Don Woolsey has been buying phono-
graphs and pin games for his Stockton
locations.

footloose? Anyway, there is always more
or less change of personnel among the
local operators. A recent change was
made by John Traum when he saw fit
to leave McCall's and get employment
at Carl Trippe's.
Among recent callers from Illinois
were C. C . Hudson, Centralia, and
Walker Jeters from Herrin, But no matter
where they come from , St. Louis jobbers
are always happy to extend the glad
