Union Record Turner
CHICAGO-The automatic phonograph
at the C.1.O. co nvention at th e Stevens
&~on~wm~ln~~~ym~~
Why? Representatives of the American
F ederation of Musicians (A.F.L.) ordered
th e phono turned off because an A.F.M.
membe r was not on hand to chan ge rec•
ords.
It seems th e A.F.M. has an agreement
with all Chicago hotels that a union mem-
ber must supervi se the music box when
recorded music is di spensed. Sign posts on
the pathway to civilization! !

GI in Italy, according to word received
here. When hi s transport unit halted in
an Italian town one young Yank soldier
glimpsed a pinball machine in a half-
ruin ed building. Taking a chance, he left
his jeep and soon was pulling the plunger.
He had hardly started, however, when a
German battery opened up on the town. The
soldier hu ggea the Aoor until the barrage
ended , then went out into the street.
Wh ere hi s jeep had been parked th ere was
only a shell crater.

• The A.B.T. Manufacturing Corporation, the home of the famous
A.B.T. Chute-the-chutes, although engaged in war work is still
the "House of Service". Due to the restrictions on civilian produc-
tion, we cannot manufacture new coin-operated machines. How-
ever, we can help you to keep those prewar machines operating
longer. If you need replacement parts or servicing call on us. We
will assist you to our utmost.
When victory is ours, A.B. T. will again lead the field in manufac-
turing coin-operated machines. REMEMBER A.B.T. in postwar,
but first remember to Buy War Bonds, the more, the better .
