Periods Influence
Cabinet Designs
operators may not be interested
in period furniture but there is
hardly one of them, who is married,
that has not heard considerable
about it. Some will wonder what a
subject like this has to do with this
industry. First, it is the infiuence
that craftsmen and artisans in the
building of furniture have had on the
development of today's cabinet de-
signs.
An operator may not appreciate
a Duncan-Phythe or lAJUis XIV or
Louis XVI idea in cabinet design, but
a great many women customers
would when the machine appears in
a public place.
Some of the early
games got ideas from the old fur-
niture motifs in design. The cabinet
IQakers who produce cabinets and
legs for various games are very well
schooled in dirferent penod furni-
ture designs and their application to
modernistic ideas.
The Wheat Cabinet Co., which has
supplied Pacific with cabinets since
their inception, were identified with
the production of CONTACT and
MAJOR LEAGUE, providing some
clever new appeals in game designs,
or rather the interpretation of the
originators of the machine in a well
finished cabinet.

There is no room for argument
here. Decker, in selecting Jackson,
picks the greatest short-stop in
either league, the "spark-plug" of the
Giants, and the fastest man on a
double play that baseball has ever
known.
MAJOR LEAGUE IS ENDORSED
BY MANY STAR BALL PLAYERS,
INCLUDING CHUCK KLEIN, WHO
WAS VOTED THE MOST VALU-
ABLE PLAYER IN THE LEAGUE
LAST YEAR; CHARLIE GRIMM,
THE MANAGER OF THE CUBS,
AND GABBY HARTNETT, THE
PEPPERY CATCHER FOR THE
SAME CLUB.
. 3rd Base--(1) Pepper Martin,
St. Louis.
(2) Owen, New York.
(3) Vergus, Giants.
The way Pepper Martin ran wild
in the series of 1932 will never be
forgotten by baseball fans. The
" wild horse of the Osage" should be
a " wow" playing MAJOR LEAGUE,
says Decker.
In the outfield, the Giants have a
little the best of it. Mell Ott, J .
Moore and Watkins, with the re-
doubtable Lefty O'Doule in reserve,
or as a pinch-hitter, rate higher than
either St. Louis or Detroit. True,
"Goose" Goslin, White and Fox have
played great ball all summer, but the
consistency of the Giant trio-both in
the field and at the bat- make them
one of the greatest outfields of the
past decade. In this department, the
Cardinals display real weakness, and
outside of Medwick do not rate as a
good AA outfield.
MELL OTT WOULD CERTAINLY
BE A SENSATION PLAYING MA-
JOR LEAOUE. THAT GIANT OUT-
FIELDER COULD SMACK THAT
HOME RUN HOLE ALL DAY, AND
IT WOULD BE A REAL TREAT TO
SEE HIM STEP UP TO THE GAME,
BEAR DOWN ON THE PLUNGER
AND SHOOT THOSE MARBLES
AROUND.
Charlie Grimm says:
"I have
played many skill games all over the
country, but never did I think it
would be possible to make as clever
a game as MAJOR LEAGUE, and it
gives me plenty of thrills and excite-
ment playing."
This statement, coming from such
an authority on baseball as ' Charlie
Grimm, the manager of the Chicago
Cubs, is ample proof of the merits of
MAJOR LEAGUE.
Behind the plate is where Detroit
begins to show their real strength.
Cochrane, far outclassing Davis of
the Cardinals, and Mancuso of the
Giants. Mickey, in his first year, has
done something which even the fa-
mous "Georgia Peach" could not ac-
complish, in piloting Detroit to an
American League pennant. A shrewd,
careful handler of pitchers, Cochrane
is without equal behind the bat. His
great throwing arm insures few
stolen bases,
and, WERE
HE
PLAYING MAJOR LEAGUE, THAT
STOLEN BASE HOLE WOULD
CERTA.J.~LY BE OF LITTLE USE.
Another great catcher, GABBY
HARTNETT, made the statement in
St. Louis the other day:
"I get a big kick out of playing
MAJOR LEAGUE. The same strat-
egy that I employ on the baseball
diamond, can be used in playing this
fine game. I am happy to endorse
MAJOR LEAGUE because it gives
me many hours of genuine recrea-
tion."
If St. Louis gets into the series,
the Dean Boys should be able to win
four games themselves, and they
would have to do this, if the Cardin-
als were to come through with "Gon-
falon." Hallahan, Haines and Moon-
ey have had very poor years. IN
MAJOR LEAGUE, THE PITCHER
DISHES THE MARBLES UP WITH
ALL THE SPEED OF WALTER
JOHNSON AND LEFTY GROVE.
ALL DEPARTMENTS OF PROFES-
SIONAL

MAJOR LEAGUE, UNQUESTION-
ABLY THE GREATEST ACTION
GAME OF ALL TIMES.
In the opinion of Bobby Decker,
Detroit's pitching staff, under the
capable handling of Cochrane, out-
classes the Giants. Hubbel has not
been effective the latter part of the
season. The Giants cannot get any
runs behind the effective pitching of
Fitsimmons, while Pannalee and
Schumacker may come through. For
Detroit, " School Boy" Rowe, Fischer,
Crowder, Bridges and Auker are go-
ing great guns.
IF THE PENNANT RACE WERE
TO BE DECIDED ON PAMCO'S
GREAT GAME, MAJOR LEAGUE,
THERE WOULD BE NOTHING TO
CHOOSE BETWEEN THE RIVALS.
Summed up, Decker looks for De-
troit to outclass the Giants in bat-
ting, in the box, and in the field , with
the Giants having a little the best of
it in the outfield, but looks for the
Dean Boys to pitch the Cardinals to
the world's championship if St. Louis
beats out the Giants for the National
League flag.
The series may have been decided
when THE REVIEW appears, and
Decker's judgment may have proven
all wet-however, when the boys in
the "Hot Stove" League get togeth-
er during the long winter months,
they can replay the series on MAJOR
LEAGUE. THEY CAN GET THEIR
SINGLES, DOUBLE SAND
TRIPLES AND HOME RUNS. LIKE
PEPPER MARTIN, THEY CAN
RUN HOG WILD ON THE BASES.
OR, LIKE THE DEAN BOYS, DISH
THEM UP ON THE PLATE FROM
THE PITCHER'S BOX- LIKE MELL
OTT, THEY WILL SMACK OUT A
FEW HOMERS OR BOUNCE THEM
OFF THE FENCE FOR TRIPLES-
BUT IN ANY CASE, THERE IS NO
PLAY THAT WILL COME UP IN
THE 1934 WORLD'S SERIES THAT
DOES NOT COME UP ON PAMCO'S
GREAT BASEBALL GAME, ' MA-
JOR LEAGUE! ! !
