KANSAS CITY, 1\10. - Vacation time,
for Missouri Valley operators, is definitely
here. In fact it is getting difficult to tell
just which operator is on vacation and
which has gone off to the Ozarks, or some
other hotel resort region, on a combined
business and pleasure trip.
Now take the case of Johnnie Johns, for
instance. Johnnie operates a lot of cigarette
vendors in the resort regions. There are a
couple of pretty fair lakes in these districts,
and they hold some pretty good fish. If an
operator like Johnnie - strictly business
bent-couldn't find any suitable new loca-
tions, he might, by chance, throw out a
plug at a nearby lake or rest his eyes in
the shade. That would be strictly business.
Yellowstone National Park proved to be
too much of a lure for Manager Carl
Hoelzel of United Amusement Company.
Late in July he packed up and headed for
the park. From reports received by United's
employes, Carl may stay in the peaceful
boundaries of Yellowstone for some time.
The big news at United this month con-
cerns Mary Pat Jobosky. Ed Jobosky, head
of United's shop department, announced
late in July that Miss Mary Pat-all eight
pounds of her-and mother were doing
well.
From all appearances the Central Dis-
tributing Company is doing a good mid-
summer business in music. Mason and
Crummett, heads of the concern, and pio-
neers in the field in the Missouri Valley,
aren't saying much about it but their place
of business is always the scene of a great
deal of activity. There are always crated
boxes piled high on the sidewalks, and
inside there isn't room for the machines
being dressed-up for locations.
And there is still no talk of vacations
around Central so it would seem that this
operating-distributing firm is prepared to
battle it out through the summer provided
the music box traffic continues to be bullish.
The music boom isn't confined to Cen-
tral. In almost every coin machine head-
quarters one sees signs of increased activity
in the music business. Piles of bright alum-
inum stands give mute testimony that the
counter-size phonographs aren't just a fad
but are growing into a very important unit
in the music field.
John Corse, Wellington, Missouri opera-
tor, visited Kansas City recently and re-
ported that business down his way was good
for the hot weather months. His words
confirm that rural business is really on the
"up."
At Hamilton Enterprises their new att-
ractive Mickey Mouse and His Pals Vendor
continues to stream, in increased numbers,
off this firm's assembly line. According to
"Doc" Hamilton, these vendors are now in
every state in the country and July sales
are double those of any previous month
since the new machine was placed on the
market.
