Daval Conversions
Win Approval
CHICAGO - Daval's new conversion
method for rebuilding the present model
Marvel and American Eagle counter games
into non-coin-operated machines and,
thereby, eliminating the $50.00 tax has
won the acclaim of leading operators, job-
bers and distribs all over the country, Al
S. Douglis, president of the firm reveals.
This new method brings in money faster
as no time is lost in the playing action of
the machines because the player goes right
on pressing down the lever without using
coins. The resettable register keeps track
of every play. The operator has his own
register which shows him the total number
of plays made between check-ups. The loca-
tion owners benefit because it ends the
search for change; the player plays as
many times as he desires and then pays
just like on a salesboard.
Other desirable features are th e end of
worrying about machines being broken
into, for no coins are in the machine, and
idle periods due to repairs caused by bent
and mutilated coins clogging chutes are
eliminated. A week or so, including trans-
portation time to and from the factory, is
all that is required to convert coin op-
erated machines to non-coin-operated
•
machines.

Tenkins CalIs Tax
Blessing Shrouded
CHICAGO - Improved operating meth-
ods as a result of the federal tax on coin
operated machines is the prophecy of
George Jenkins, general sales manager of
. Bally Mfg. Co.
"With the additional expense of the tax
to consider," Jenkins explained, "operators
are checking up on their equipment more
carefully than ever before. Machines
which are not up to par in earning
power are being weeded out by smart
operators, and they are replacing such
equipment with machines that will help
them offset the tax. A strong trend to-
ward consoles has alse resulted from the
tax."
The tax, causing a more cri ti cal attitude
toward the type of equipment operated,
will in turn result in better net profits per
locat.ion and a general improvement in
operating conditions.
