Avid reader
Fun Factory
I was most interested to read
your article about Steve Shoe-
maker and the Redondo Fun
Factory (PLA Y METER, No-
vember, page 64). Steve certain-
ly has been an asset to t he City of
Redondo Beach and the pier area.
The article quite accurately sets
forth the many contributions Mr.
Shoemaker has made to our city.

I have been an avid reader of
PLA Y METER for over a year
and have enjoyed reading Roger
C. Sharpe's Critic's Corner since
its inception .
I am a serviceman in Winnipeg,
and I find that he and I share
common views on many of the
machines that are reviewed in
PLAY METER.

Tax response
Thank you for your research
into industry taxes around the
United States (PLAY METER,
August, page 22). To our knowl-
edge, it is the first effort made in
that direction, and hopefully you
will be adding to the list as you
get the information.
We will expand on ours in New
York State to cover every village
and hamlet. If every state would
follow suit, it could be compiled
into a reference book that would
be valuable to all manufacturers
and state associations .
This information service is long
overdue. Your article triggered a
drive to make a more in-depth
study .
Thanks again.

Association support
Congratulations on your strong
support for associations. If more
operators forgot their petty
gripes and got together, this
would be a much better and more
respected business.
