REVIEW
SAN DIEGO.- What makes an operator
successful? The service card of the A. J.
Fox Company of San Diego tells the story.
Seven men on duty 24 hours per day and
each name and phone number is neatly
printed on the card.
In six years Gus Fox has grown from a
one man organization to a twelve man con•
cern. Today he operates about 400 Rock•
Ola phonographs, some 300 to 400 amuse•
ment games of leading makes, 200 Rock•
Ola Lo.Boy scales, over 200 Nation.al Cigar•
ette and Candy Merchandise machines and
a couple hundred penny peanut and gum
machines.
Evidently Gus Fox feels that diversifica•
tion is the answer. He believes in giving
his customers a complete service and help•
ing them to make money through a wide
use of the right type of automatic equip•
·ment.
Another outstanding thing is the loyalty
of every man in the Fox organization. He
pays good wages and goes out of his way
to keep every man happy and satisfied.
Fox is probably one of the most popular
operators on the Pacific Coast and in San
Diego he is tops with thousands of people.
Every year he spends hundreds of dollars
buying Christmas gifts and remembers
every location and everybody working in
that location from the janitor up.
He has a personality that is the envy of
many an operator and when anybody drops
into his office he always has a cheery hello

and a friendly drink for those that might
like to indulge.
Salesmen often find it hard to sell Gus
Fox any line that might compete with his
present lines but that's because of his
loyalty to those manufacturers who helped
him in the beginning.

LOS ANGELES.-A community news•
paper in Viewpark, suburban community,
had this to say concerning a new phono•
graph installed in one of the town's main
restaurants:
"MUSIC has been put to a use which,
while not exactly new is refreshing, by a
Viewpark restaurant man. He recently in•
stalled one of these phonograph record
machines in his place of business. He notes
that aside from any monetary return, the
effect of harmony, however questionable
musically, in an eating establishment, is
startling.
"Waiters who formerly appeared to be in
the last enervated stages of hookworm have
suddenly become animated jitterbugs. Ham
and eggs appear with the suddenness of a
'hot jive' and hot cakes and waffies are 'in
the groove' to the rhythm of 'a little yellow
basket.'
"One thing that wasn't so good was when
a beeksteak dinner appeared to the strains
of 'The Donkey Serenade' but we must,
perforce, agree with the graveyard shift
boys, whose favorite is 'Two Sleepy Peo·
