Y17ITH 25 pin tables to be awarded
to as many successful contestants,
the people of New York City are
being asked to compete in a letter
writing contest on the subject, “Why
I Like to Play Pin Games.”
The contest is a part of the cam
paign to gain a greater measure of
public confidence and favorable pub
licity toward the amusement machine
industry, which is sponsored by the
Amusements Service Corporation of
America. John A. Fitzgibbons is pres
ident of this organization, and General
John F. O’Ryan is special counsel.
First advertisements of the contest
appeared in four large New York
dailies late last month. ‘The advertis
ing features the word “free” and then
announces the simple rules of the
competition: 1— You are privileged to
write on any phase of Bagatelle (pin
game) play; 2— Your letter or post
card to contain 50 words or less,
clearly written or typed on one side
of the paper only, including your
name and address; 3— Letters must
be mailed no later than midnight,
March 14, 1936, and are to become
the property of the Amusements
Service Corporation of America; 4—
In case of ties, duplicate awards will
be made; 5— The decision of the
judges will be final and will be an
nounced March 31, 1936.
Judges of the contest are Myron L.
Summerfield, Mrs. Hollister Sturges
and Theodore Crane. Because of its
unusual nature, the contest is said
to have attracted the attention of
advertising men over a wide area. It

Age, leading publication of the adver
tising field, is preparing a feature
story on the contest which will reach
newspapers throughout the country.
Besides the publicity angle, the
sponsors indicated that another mo
tive prompted them to stage the con
test. By carefully analyzing the
letters submitted by contestants, they
pointed out, it will be possible to
determine what types of pin tables
the public prefers.
Operators in the New York area
are greatly interested in the current
campaign. In fact, it is said that the
digger operators’ association is con
sidering a similar campaign in behalf
of their machines, and that Sportland
firms may revive their advertising
program soon.
