Popmatic Expands,
By ART WELD
The Cigarette Operators' Association
is dead!
Long live the Cigarette Merchandis-
ers' Association!
The organization of cigarette machine
operators in Los Angeles which started
out five years ago under Horace Skel-
ton's old umbrella and has been under
an oxygen tent during the past six
months, breathed its last the other day.
Obsequies were attended by the "Four
Horsemen," faithful to the last to their
creed: "One for all, all for one."
An autopsy was performed on the old
body and a spark of life in the embry-
onic stage was discovered. Following a
consultation it was determined that a
Caesarian operation should be under-
taken. A new life was born. The babe
was christened Cigarette Merchandis-
ers' Association. What a name!
Godfathers to the infant were elected.
Art Weld was named president, Will
Ash vice-president, Al Weymouth sec-
retary and Ed Steur treasurer. A board
of consultants also was chosen, com-
prising the officers, together with Tom
Morrissey and R. N. Buchwalter.
In order to bring up the child in the
proper environment a kindergarten has
been established at 2710 South Hill
Street and a nurse will be placed in
constant attendance.
The prediction is made that the
youngster soon will be lusty enough to
swing his sceptre of power over all
operators of cigarette machines in
Southern California. Even this early in
life the new ruler has decreed a scale
EPCO BELL LOCKS
President Weld
of maximum commissions and that op-
erators, who have been busy in the
past jumping competitors' locations,
shall immediately curb their acrobatic
tactics.
Thirty operators have already added
their hurrahs and huzzahs, as well as
their trinkets of gold and silver, in
starting the husky youngster on a long
and very prosperous life.

announces new model.
LOS ANGELES.-Due to an ever-in-
creasing demand for Popmatic, auto-
matic corn popping merchandiser, Pop-
matic Mfg. Co. has increased its head-
quarters personnel and has taken new
and larger office space at the same ad-
dress-light, spacious, completely re-
decorated and air-conditioned and re-
furnished throughout, according to Mohr
Bros., Western Distributors for Popmatic.
At the same time, it has been an-
nounced, a new model, No. 24-A, has
been developed and will be on display
for the first time at the Coin Machine
Show in Chicago. Result of nearly four
years of designing and engineering re-
search by experienced engineers who
have been devoting all their time and
effort to production of Popmatic, the
new merchandiser is said to be the
ideal machine from the operator's stand-
point-sturdy, reliable, easier to keep
clean because of parts more easily ac-
cessible, the essence of simplicity with
regard to servicing.
The latest model has a frame and
stand of stamped and welded construc-
tion, insuring strength and durability
beneath the beautifully modernistic fin-
ish. New, likewise, is an oil-leveling
arrangement which minimizes the use
of oil and delivers a more delicious and
wholesome serving of popcorn to the
customer.
