the University. Ten of Atari's most popular video games in-
cluding SPRINT 2, ASTEROIDS, ATARI FOOTBALL and new

ment and challenge of these top amusements.

also sponsored a Missile Command tournament. All Junior
Olympic athletes were invited to participate, and play· for top
scores and prizes on Thursday night, August 14, and Saturday
