Robbins Announces
new counter game.
BROOKLYN, N. Y.-Used successfully
on test locations in New York City for
the past two months, leqally operated
anywhere because it vends a ball of
gum for every penny, and now in full
production so that immediate deliverie s
can be made, Criss Cross, D. Robbins
& Co.'s new low-priced gum vending
counter game will have its first official
showing to operators at the forthcoming
Show at the Sherman Hotel, according
to Dave Robbins, president of the firm .
Originated by Irving Mitchell of the
Robbins staff, inventor of a number of
money-making games, Criss Cross Ball
Vendor is said to have an appeal simi-
lar to that of the now famous Robbins
Bingo counter skill game. Idea of play
is to place three rubber balls in line .
Last coin is always visible, and it is
reported that the machine may also be
used for nickel play.
Simultaneously with this announce-
ment, Robbins issued a word urging
operators to give more consideration to
penny equipment which ''. Jacks the
quick depreciation, high cost and huge
effort" of the five-cent machines. Recall-
ing his own experiences as an opera-
tor, Robbins claims to have made
"plenty of money" from penny equip-
ment, backs up his assertion with re-
ports from operators of Bingo earnings
of $2 to $5 a week or more. "Even if you
are making money with your nickel
equipment," he declares, "it will pay
you to operate some penny games. You
will discover that 'fast pennies' are bet-
ter than 'slow nickels,' and you will
learn the meaning of 'long-life' money-
makers. "
CHICAGO.-According to announce-
ment of George Jenkins, Bally Mfg. Co.'s
salesmanager, Goddard Novelty Co. of
London, England, has arranged for
large s hipments of Bally products to the
English market. Among the machines
iricluded in the initial volume shipment
to Goddard headquarters were Para-
mount, spinning ball novelty game;
Dixie, 7-coin console; and Thistledown.
