FAREWELL
This July issue is the fourteenth
and last issue of Play Meter I will
have worked on. I leave the
magazine at the first of the month
to enter Union Theological Sem-
inary in Richmond, Virginia. My
friends tell me that I shall have
quite an adjustment to make.
Well, we'll see about that.
I want to take this opportunity
to thank those many people in the
coin industry, manufacturers,
distributors and operators, who
have made my association with
your industry both fun and
rewarding. I have enjoyed work-
ing with you, and I. hope you will
make my successor David Pierson
as welcome as you have made
me.
Particular thanks to my writ-
ers, Roger Sharpe, Dick Welu,
Robin Minnear, Randy Fromm,
Michael B. Klein, Tim Jarrell,
Gene Beley, Susan Brenna, Mary
Claire Blakeman, Thelma Fair
and J.W. Sedlak.

TECH TOPICS PRAISED
First of all, I'm to congrat-
ulate you for the most useful
"Technical Topics" section of what
we consider "Our Magazine." We
have subscribed to Play Meter
since the first issue, and we
consider it a "must" for every
operator in the trade.
I consider one of the best
contributions to your service
department Robin Minnear's ar-
ticles "Building a Logic Compara-
tor" in the issues of February and
March. Thanks.

Recenty my boss and I have
been doing a great deal of studies
on pinball with the use of the
computer. We have compared the
different features of a machine
with the income it earns for a
period of time. Also we have
studied the playing habits of
individuals and what they like in
playing different pjnball games.
It is surprising how they cor-
relate with your magazine. Keep
up the good work.
