people go for the 30p per cup mechanism but there is

on that. The cracked ice is optional but most people
go for it. The ice maintains the coldness of the drink
but also ensures that the carbonation and taste is
retained to the last drop.”

Freefall from Stern has
Has Many New Features
Stern Electronics Inc. have announced plans for the
international distribution of a new solid-state four-player
pinball game — FREEFALL. It will be distributed in the UK
by London Coin.
Designed by pinball industry pioneer Harry Williams,
Freefall features multiple ball play. A bonus feature picks
up and transports the ball across the playfield — by
tramway — to an elevated launch site. The ball
accumulator is activated following completion of the
‘skydiver’’ scoring sequence and can launch as many as
three balls simultaneously onto the playfield.
Freefall’'s
three-dimensional,
richly-coloured
backglass of azure blues, shaded to deep purples and other
dawn-to-dusk sky colours, emphasises the game's ethereal
theme — depicting celestial winged nymphs free-floating
ander an impressionistic scripted logo.
Freefall's advanced solid-state electronic system was
designed and manufactured by Universal Research
Labortories Inc. a Sterrysubsidiary.
