meet in Portland
PORTLAND, ORE.- Employees of the
Jack R. Moore Company held their Sec-
ond Annual Meeting here early in May
to form plans for the coming season and
to discuss activities of the past year.
A feature of the gathering was a dis-
cussion of the new Bally Beverage Ven-
dor now being distributed by Moore.
Seen drinking a toast to the success of
the new vendor in the p icture above,
are the managers and their assistants.

Evelyn Plant, Spokane; George Cusick,
Jr. , Spokane; H. B. Hoffman, Spokane;
Valeria Skreslet , Portland; Charles

Held each year in order to allow rep-
re sentatives of the company to become
better acquainted, and to make p lans
and agree on changes in policy, these
yearly meetings are very popular with
the staff, Moore asserts.
The meeting this year closed with a
banquet at which various members
were given trib ute for outstanding acts
of theirs during the past year. John
Ruggiero received the first considera-
tion for his initiative and the best sin-
gle order. He was given a "wardrobe"
trave ling bag.
A new briefcase went to Paul Miller
for his outstanding work in the Wash-
ington legislative session just closed.
Dick Robinson, George Cusick and
Charles Green all received gifts for vari-
ous acts a n d outstanding work during
the past year. As a special gift to the
lady members of the organization, and
to the managers' wives, we nt a hand-
some white reptile, fitted purse.
Three New Gomes
introduced
by Bally
CHICAGO. - Chevron, Double f eat-
ure and Victory, Bally Manufacturing
Company's latest games, were an-
nounced to the trade by General Sales
Manager Jim Buckley in May, with the
sta tement that " the machines are de-
signed to fit into Baily's balanced line
policy."
Expressing his faith in the new ma-
chines, Buckley stated, "following up
the sensational success of Fifth Inning
and Spottem, Bally now presents Double
Feature and Chevron to insure a con-
tinuation of the big earnings enjoyed
by Bally operators. Our third new hit
is Victory, the game that means free
play territory will continue to produce
'pay-table' pro fits.
"Chevron, as the successor to Spot-
tem , enables operators to move their
Spottems on lei second-string spots and
maintain peak earnings in their choice
locations. With all the play appea l of
Spottem, Chevron also includes a fa sci-
nating new 'when lit' roll-over which
offers the same advantages as inter-
mediate awards.
"Double Feature , while primarily
built for the high-score market, is actu-
ally a revolutionary new departure in
game a ction. The first really new devel-
opment since the start of the spiral
bumpers, Double Feature bumpers pro-
vide double-d uty action. If the ball hits
from above the p layer scores 100; if
it hits from below, 1000 points are re-
ceived. This innovation will unquestion-
ably start the bumper boom all over
again.
"Both Double Feature and C hevron
include many new mechanical refine-
ments such a s in-a-door coin chutes,
triple anti-tilt, new floating power, a
su per-sensitive shooter with long bear-
ing a nd rubber tip-all features which
insure longer life and greater profits.
"Victory has a ll the pla y appeal of
Eureka with mystery selections , chang -
ing odds and 'win-place-show' a ward s.
It has greater flash tha n Eureka with
a popular sports theme on b oard a nd
b a ck glass. Like Eureka, Victory oper-
a tes a s a one-shot, a five-ba ll, four-b all
or two-ball game , with or without er
fou r-way m ultiple. All a ward s a re
metered a n d it has the sa me wide
ra ng e a dj u s tability as Bally pay tables."

stamps, collects mail
NEW YORK-Introduction of the Mail-
omat, coin operated service machine,
during May, was cause for widespread
interest among coin men of this city.
The machine does away with the pur-
chase of stamps, automatically printing
a metered stamp on letters, then depos-
iting them in a container to await col-
lection.

New York Postmaster Goldman and
Ramsey S. Black, third assistant pos t-
master general, assisted in the demon-
stration of the new machine, at which
time two letters addressed to President
Roosevelt were deposited with the nec-
e ssary coins and s tamped by the Mailo-
mat. Postmas ter Goldman s tated, "We
look forward to the time when hotels
and every public center throughout the
country will have the opportunity of em-
ploying this new device."
According to the manufacturers, the
Pitney-Bowes Pos tage Meter Company
of Stamford, Connecticut, the machine
is "foolproof" and has been approved
by the Post Office Department for pri-
vate distribution. Since metered stamps
require no postoffice cancellation, use
of the machine is said to facilitate hand-
ling of mail and expedite its delivery.

MACHINE
REVIEW
Pennies, nickels, dimes or quarters
may be inserted in slots of the machine
in any combination or amount up to 60
cents. Through a glass window in the
machine the mailer's coin deposit is al-
ways visible. A dial permits selection
of postage denominations from I to 22
cents.
Bert Perkins
Manufacturers s tate that a machine
will be installed in the New York
World's Fair Post Office . It is expected
that the new machine will do much to
make the public coin machine con-
scious.

nouncement by Jim Buckley, vice-pres-
ident and general sales manager.
With a bell background gained dur-
ing six years a s sales manager of the
0. D. Jennings coin machine division,
Perkins comes to Bally well prepared
to carry on the organization and sales
work of the company. "Perk,,, as he is
known in coin machine circles, was for
five years sales promotion manager and
a ssistant sales manager in the Mills
mus ic division.
Perkins is said to be personally ac-
quainted with more bell operators and
distributors than any other man in the
bell field. He is also a recognized au-
thority on every phase of bell operation,
Buckley states, and is generally cred-
ited with being the originator of the
bell license idea.
Discussing hi s appointment to the
Bally staff, Perkins said, "Naturally, I
have had occasion during the past year
to watch the growing popularity of the
Bally Bell. I have come to the definite
conclusion that it is going places. The
double principle is very sound, partic-
ularly because one person playing a
bell always attracts others. I am sold
a hundred per cent on the Bally Bell
and the Bally Manufacturing Company."
