manner. While the balls are cavort
ing around the midget fields, colored
lights flash on and off. Balls missing
either of the tunnels are set in play
on the main field and may be sent
to higher scores by landing in the
first approach pocket. A ball skill
fully shot into the ‘Advance’ hole
sends the ball to the second approach
pocket. Another ‘Advance’ shot will
put it into the final high score pocket.
“Now we pass on to what we think
is the finest automatic pay-out game
on the market, Match Play. The
player gets two balls; the first ball
is sent onto the upper playing field
to land in a score pocket. When the
first ball is shot a switch automati
cally closes the upper field and opens
the lower field for the second shot.
If the player skillfully lands the
second ball in the corresponding num
bered pocket with the one hit in the
upper field, the disbursement is made
automatically by means of a con
cealed ‘pay-out.’
“Pore,” said Dave, as he passed on
to the next game. “Here is the closest
thing to real golf we’ve ever seen,
^ar Golf has all the thrills and ex
citement of the real game. The play-
jnK field consists of the fairway, sand
traps, water hole, and greens. It is
Possible to make a straight shot, a
n°ok or a slice. I t ’s a game of skill
and action that has a real gallery
ar°und it all the time.'’
thAfter watching the crowds around
Gottlieb exhibit and listening to
ave describe the new games, we feel
«rj,/l.Ccor^ with the above statement,
i
ls year’s show is the finest ever
j?o
iand the industry wil1 have to
a long way to equal it.”

Enjoying a well earned vacation
Samuel Kresberg, of the Capitol
Automatic Music Co., Inc., recently
returned from an intensive cruise
which took him as far as South
America. Among the ports of call
were Venezuela, Colombia, Jamaica,
Nassau and the Panama Canal Zone.
Though this was primarily a pleas
ure jaunt, Kresberg did not mind
doing a little business on the side
and more than paid for his trip
through the sale of Sweet “16” at a
number of stop-overs.
He believes Colon, which is at the
mouth of the Panama Canal, a big
market for coin-operated machines.
An average of 40 ships a day have
to wait their turn to go through the
locks and while waiting the crews
receive shore leave. Colon is a replica
of Singapore he says. He found
Nassau to be the home for all the
old pin games. Amongst others he
saw in operation Bingo, Baffle Ball,
Five Star Final and Ballyhoo. He
doesn’t recall seeing a new game
there.
